DAMM - Period 1 Monday - The Final Countdown

Byron appeared before the class in the usual way and bowed to them.

"Greetings students! Today is the day of your Final exam! Follow me! To the DANGER SHOP!"

As the class moved to the danger shop, Byron explained the they would be presented with a situation that they will have to resolve. Each student had to pick at least one door, but could do as many as they like after that. Arcane, alchemical, and mundane items would be available for them to assemble whatever sort of solution might come into their heads.

"Uh huh," Dawn looked a little skeptical, "so, any reason why I shouldn't just wave some garlic, throw some holy water, stake you and be done with it?"

The little boy's lower lip started to quiver and he sniffed.

"... I didn't say I vanted to suck all your blood!"

Just in case, she pulled a compact out of her purse and flashed the mirror at the little boy to see if he reflected. "I like all my blood where it is, thanks. Have you considered switching to pig or cow? Easily accessible and relatively inexpensive..."

Dawn's caution pays off as the mirror does not reflect the little boy.

"Pigs n cows ain't pretty... And they smell bad!"

Okay, so, real vampire. "You don't smell so great to them either, I bet."

"Hey! I take baths!"

"I'm very happy to hear that," Dawn said, then suggested, "and I'm thinking that maybe you could just buy the blood from a butcher and not have to deal with anything smelly?"

"... i guess I could drink it out of a wine glass... That would be cool huh?"

The kid looked like he wasn't entirely sure of that or not.

"Oh, very cool!" Dawn said enthusiastically, "and much more dramatic than trying to mug people in dark alleys. Pluuuuuuuus, you wouldn't have to worry about people like Slayers killing you."

"Then I could hang out in clubs and meet chicks!"

Dawn nodded, "Yup. Just as soon as you can prove you're over twenty-one, you can do that all you want. How'd you end up a vampire anyway?"

"The usual way."

"Which is?" Most vampires she'd met loved to tell their origin stories.

"I got bit by a vampire." the little boy said looking at Dawn like she had eyes on stalks.

"Just because?"

"... My mom. She didn't want m to grow up."

"Oh, that sucks," Dawn said, heartfelt and perhaps overidentifying a little. "Do you think you can get along without eating people?"

"I guess I'll make more friends like that huh?"

"Yup. Plus then I don't have to kill you."

"... I don't want to suck your blood any more."

"Do you want to suck anyone else's? Like, if a nice little girl came by? Or a puppy? Or someone who looked like a good mom or someone to play with?"

"... No." said the little boy sullenly. "I'ma goinna go to the butcher shop and buy some blood to drink outta wine glasses."

"Good." Dawn obviously hadn't had enough sleep. "But I'm gonna keep an eye on you, and if I hear you're back to eating people, either I'm going to kill you or I'm going to have a Slayer do it, which you really don't want. Okay?"

"... Ohkay."

"Okay," she said with a nod, then pointed, "Butcher shop's thataway."
