Re: Kara, Andrea Clark, then Buffy vs. Glory
Glory knew the names, she had minions didn't she. She'd gotten the info and in hindsight she probably shouldn't have been distracted by particularly fragrant new bath salts. But she remembered the aliens with super strength that could fly, and she suspected she knew Solo.
"The ones that hit me, and the guy hurling lightning at my Jinxy?" she said sadly as her best minion got hurled into a wall. Lame. She'd liked him. She needed to keep Buffy talking, keep her talking long enough to...Dammit...another slash at her side, more power lost. That sword, it was weakening her...weakening her hard and then finally. It was a simple move, she'd turned to the side, just angled herself right and the blade cut into the Slayer's stomach. She'd done it. She'd finally done it. She was about to drive the sword in all the way to be sure and finish her off when she was frozen in place by something, something from across the battle. Her mind was shattering again.
"NO!!" she screamed wildly. "Crawling, crawling all in my head, never find the light, never see the...why won't you let me have my LIGHT, she's MINe. Mine like, shoes and clothes and cars and material trappings, trappings, cages and chains, old times...just like old..."
She had to heal, she had to. She had to let him try to get away. She had no choice left. But maybe Buffy would die before the choice became an issue.
She gave the body up to Ben and he looked up worriedly.
