Buffy & Selene
"The biggest difference I have found between my line and all the others I've seen here is that those of us with Corvinus blood are not walking dead. My metabolism is not human; I have a heartbeat, breathe, maintain a steady, if lower than human, body temperature. I have a daughter. We are not blood dependent, or bothered by the sun or holy objects.
Selene raised one eyebrow. "Definitely in need of some training. We can see what happens when you clear your dance card."
The small purser's office doubled as a second airlock to the bay, so it had a pressure door instead of just a hatch. Selene touched a button on the wall and hydraulic rams pushed the heavy door shut. Pulling a data chip from a belt pouch, she handed it to Buffy, then sat behind the small desk and gestured to a chair.
"That chip has a military-grade encryption program in case we find it necessary to communicate over the web."
She folded her hands on the top of the desk and reguarded the woman across from her. "Alucard - Vlad Tepes is his real name - is, i believe, quite mad. Even for one of us. He said you know about his intention to infiltrate the First Order. I'll be blunt. From the way he spoke, he fears the task may cause him to 'lose himself'. My fear is that he means he will go completely off the rails and turn into some sort of a mindless predator. He mentioned the Helsing seals that bound him; I noticed the kabalistic markings on those white gloves he wears. No idea how long those seals will work in a new universe.
"Reading between the lines, I believe he wants one, or both of us to... deal with him if the monster gets loose."
