Glory is walking around the room, extremely impatient. After a few seconds, her three minions walk in with a man

who is clearly extremely scared.

MAN
Please, just let me go

GLORY
It's about time, you useless lunks. Now bring him here!

The three minions drag the man towards Glory.

MAN
Please, just let me go. My name is Richard and I have a wife and four kids. Please!

One of Glory's minions gives Glory a knife. Glory jams it right through the man's heart.

GLORY
Thank god.... silence! Was he whining like that the whole time?

MINION 1
That he was, great one

Glory pulls the knife out and puts her hand on the wound. The man doesn't move so he's probably dead.

GLORY
Avir potentia ma sur. Eventere imir sur. *getting louder* Shanta mihrti sofu Naf-Seetme!

A wave of energy passes from Glory's hand to the dead body. Glory releases the body and it falls to the ground.

After a few seconds, Richard gets up. His eyes are completely black but other wise, he looks human.

The wound on his chest has completely healed.

GLORY
Now, doesn't that feel better?

RICHARD / NAF-SEETME
Indeed it does.

He sounds like two voices are talking at the same time. Richards human voice and a demonic, high-pitched sound.

GLORY
Now that we're past the pleasantries, we have things to do

NAF-SEETME
What you mean is that *you* have things to do

GLORY
Hey! Don't forget who brought you here

NAF-SEETME
And *who* are you?

GLORY
Glory, but you can call me God. I want you to kill someone... a human

NAF-SEETME
Your request disgraces you. You are not worthy.

The Naf-Seetme moves towards Glory and punches her a couple of times. Glory hits the Naf-Seetme back and sends him

flying into a wall. They fight for another minute but it is clear that Glory is way stronger. After awhile, Glory has

the Naf-Seetme by the throat and starts to sqeeze lightly.

NAF-SEETME
Very well, I will do as you ask

GLORY
See? I knew you'd see it my way.

NAF-SEETME
Who is this human?

GLORY
She's a witch called Willow. These scabby morons will show you where she lives.

Glory points at her minions. The minions and the Naf-Seetme walk towards the door.

@@@next scene@@@

Kennedy and Dawn are cleaning up the dinner-disaster.

KENNEDY
So.... you had a talk with Mitch and Andrew?

DAWN
Well.... not really. I've been very...

KENNEDY
...busy cooking? That's just an excuse Dawn. You should talk to them both tonight... especially Mitch

DAWN
Well alright. I'll swing by his place after dinner.

KENNEDY
Good. Why don't you give him a call now to tell you're stopping by

DAWN *nervous*
What? Why?

KENNEDY
Because otherwise you won't go.

Dawn gives Kennedy a look that says "I hate it when you're right" and walks to the living room. Kennedy continues

cleaning up. She puts the backdoor open to get rid of the smell. While she's doing this, she hears Dawn speaking on

the phone. After awhile, Willow steps in with a bag of food.

WILLOW *shouts*
Okay people, dinner!

Willow steps in the kitchen.

WILLOW
Well, the smell is certainly a lot better.

Everyone sits down and everyone loads up their plates with food. They want to start eating but are interrupted

by the phone ringing.

WILLOW
Why do people always call around dinner?

DAWN
Because that's when we're home.

Willow looks at Dawn to indicate that was a rhetorical question and then stands up and walks to the living room to get

the phone.

WILLOW *serious*
Willow Rosenberg...... oh hi...... oh....... oh...... well, thanks for the warning

Willow walks back to the dinner table, sits down and starts to eat. Kennedy and Dawn are looking at her with a

questioning expression.

KENNEDY
And?

DAWN
You sounded all serious

WILLOW
That was someone from the coven. The have sensed the rise of a powerful demon here in Sunnydale.

DAWN
You mean besides Glory? Dammit, I sorta liked them coming one at a time

KENNEDY *cheerful*
Maybe we're lucky and they'll kill each other

Willow looks at Kennedy as if Kennedy just said the most stupid thing you can imagine.

KENNEDY
Or..... maybe they'll band together and kill us all

DAWN
Did they give any details?

WILLOW
No, they only sensed that this demon is powerful. We'll figure out what to do tonight.

The three of them start eating.

@@@next scene@@@

After dinner, Dawn leaves.

WILLOW
Where are you going? We have an important meeting at the Magic Box.

DAWN
I'll be there. I just have to do something

WILLOW
Well alright. Don't remember, be there at nine

DAWN
Right.

Dawn walks out of the door. Once outside, she walks away from the house.

@@@next scene@@@

Pete is sitting in a house. The owners of the house; a man, a woman and a son are lying in a triangle around him.

He has symbols on his head, written with blood. His upper body is naked, except for the amulet.

VOICE
Lesendre tufa nosi

PETE
Lesendre tufa nosi

VOICE
Ozendra feleke tanarak tarn

PETE
Ozendra feleke tanarak tarn

VOICE
Asemath wariri to ma!

PETE
Asemath wariri to ma!

A bright flash of light fills the room. The amulet starts sinking into Pete's body. The ropes that held the amulet

fall off. After about ten seconds, the amulet is completely inside Pete's chest. There is no wound visible.

Pete's eyes are completely red. Red like blood. Pete stands up and smashes his fist through a wall.

PETE/RADAMENT
The world will tremble, for Radament has returned.

He then leaves the house.

@@@next scene@@@

Dawn arrives at Xander's place. She knocks on the door and Xander opens the door.

XANDER
Hey Dawnster. What are you doing here? We're meeting over at the Magic Box

DAWN
I need to talk to Andrew for a minute

Xander's expression reveals that he didn't expect that.

XANDER
Well... alright. He's inside. I was just about to go. See you later.

Dawn enters and Xander leaves. Dawn walks further inside until she sees Andrew in his room, wearing only

his boxers. He is standing in front of his closet, deciding what to wear. The door is open and Dawn stands

in the doorway. Andrew still doesn't notice her. She then knocks on the, already open, door. Andrew quickly

turns towards her.

ANDREW
Haven't you heard of knocking?

DAWN
That's what I did

ANDREW
Before you come in

DAWN
Xander let me in...

ANDREW
Could you... you know... turn around

Dawn turns around. She's still standing in the doorway, only now, she's facing away from Andrew.

DAWN
How've you been?

ANDREW
Okay

DAWN
Good.... I wanted to talk to you

ANDREW
Well, we are talking

DAWN
...about last night. We kissed.

ANDREW
Yeah, I'm sorry about that Dawn

Dawn turns around and looks him in the eyes. Dawn's eyes are filled with hope

DAWN
Are you really?

It is silent for a couple of seconds.

ANDREW
No..... I'm not

DAWN
You're not?

ANDREW
Are you?

DAWN
I'm not either

Andrew walks over to Dawn and looks her in the eyes. Dawn quickly moves forwards and the two kiss passionately.

After more than ten seconds, they break the kiss.

ANDREW
I'd better get dressed or we'll be late

DAWN
I'm gonna be a little late

ANDREW
Where are you going?

DAWN
You want to know my every move this early in a relationship?

Andrew just looks at Dawn

DAWN
I'm going over to Mitch. I'm gonna tell him it's over

ANDREW *smiles*
You're really gonna do that?

DAWN
I really don't want to, but I guess I have to.

ANDREW
..... did you say relationship?

DAWN *smiles*
Bye Andrew

Dawn walks out of the bedroom and out of the appartment.

@@@next scene@@@

We're outside the Summers residence. The Naf-Seetme is approaching the house. There is no-one to be seen anywhere outside.

We do see someone moving inside. Radament moves around the house and surprisingly silent, he manages to break through

the backdoor. He moves towards the stairs and moves up. He hears a sound coming from one of the rooms so he moves towards

that door. He silently opens the door and sees Radament going through the cabinets. He did notice the Naf-Seetme enter

so he turns around. They both think the other is an occupant of the house.

NAF-SEETME
Where is the witch?

RADAMENT
How should I know?

The Naf-Seetme lunges for Radament but Radament jumps aside. The Naf-Seetme crashes into one of the closets.

The Naf-Seetme immediately recovers and swings his arm to Radament. Radament leans back and sees the Naf-Seetme's

fist move only an inch before his face.

RADAMENT
You're pathetic

Radament counters. He pulls back his fist and then rams his fist right through the Naf-Seetme's chest. He then rips

his fist out again. The Naf-Seetme falls down.

RADAMENT
Moron!

The Naf-Seetme gets up however with no sign of a wound anywhere.

NAF-SEETME
You're gonna pay for that!

The Naf-Seetme kicks Radament as if he was still at full strength. This time, however he would have hit Radament.

However, a burst of energy blasts the Naf-Seetme away.

NAF-SEETME
What the hell!

RADAMENT *smiles*
An anti-violence spell. Sorry mate, it only works on demons

Radament punches the Naf-Seetme a couple of times. The Naf-Seetme goes down for a second.

NAF-SEETME
And what the hell are you?

Radament holds his right hand flat and stretches his arm behind him, waiting for the Naf-Seetme to run for the door.

He does so almost immediately. When the Naf-Seetme gets close enough however, Radament swings his hand like a sword and

decapitates the Naf-Seetme. The Naf-Seetme falls on the floor again but this time, he doesn't get up.

Radament looks at the mess in the room.

RADAMENT *calm*
Well, so much for being undetected

Suddenly, Radament feels a rush of anger and rams his foot on the Naf-Seetme's head, making blood splat all over the

room. Radament then calms down again and the leaves the room and the house.

@@@next scene@@@

At the Magic Box, Willow, Kennedy, Giles, Xander and Andrew have gathered. Giles is ready to begin.

Everyone is sitting around the table, faced to Giles.

GILES
Anybody knows where Dawn is?

ANDREW
She said she went to see Mitch. She said she'd be here in awhile.

GILES
Well alright, but I'll start anyway.

Giles walks towards the whiteboard.

GILES
Willow and I have discovered an interesting thing. We have discovered a ritual to create a
Dagon-Sphere.

KENNEDY
Is that a good thing?

GILES
Yes. A Dagon-Sphere is a device used to weaken Glory. We found one the last time we were attacked
by her. We haven't been so lucky this time.

WILLOW
But this ritual tells us how to make one.

ANDREW
So.... why don't you?

GILES
Because the ritual is very complex and it has some things in it we don't understand.

XANDER
Like what?

WILLOW
Well... I've been able to identify all the ingredients except... a symbol of virtue

KENNEDY
You mean symbol as in... an object, an action or a pattern?

WILLOW
We don't know

XANDER
So... what can we do?

GILES
The same as usual

KENNEDY
Not the reading again!

WILLOW
I'm afraid so

Willow hands a reluctant Kennedy a big book and even more reluctant, Kennedy opens the book and starts reading.

@@@next scene@@@

Dawn arrives at Mitch's place. She stands in front of the door and breathes in and out. She turns around and walks away.

Before Dawn can walk away, Mitch opens the door.

MITCH
Dawn, come on in.

Dawn smiles forcefully and enters. They walk to the living room where they both sit down.

MITCH
You sounded all serious on the phone

DAWN
I..... uh.....

Mitch looks like he's expecting the worst.

DAWN
I think.... I'm in love with someone else

Mitch expected the worst, but he's still shocked.

MITCH
It's Andrew, isn't it?

DAWN
.........

Mitch looks sad.

MITCH *close to tears*
You'd better go

Dawn lets out a tear and starts walking towards the door.

DAWN
I'm sorry

Dawn leaves the house. Mitch sits down on the couch, with a tear on his face. Then, suddenly, he gasps for air.

Then, his body changes rapidly until it is no longer Mitch sitting there, but Glory.

GLORY
That is *so* much better!
