Hellmouth IC

Mercedes shook her head. "A picture? I don't know why anybody wants me to believe this stuff anyway. I mean, its just too hard to believe." She sighed. "They're probably all back there having a good laugh over the whole thing. I think we should wait for the police and the ambulance to get here."

Matt is starting to look angry, its obviously not in Gray's best interests to push him around. "Look, I don't trust you. I know what you are yes, but that makes me want to help you less, not more." He says glaring at the older man.

"I am surprised you haven't put it together yet, observational skills must not be up to snuff. Pretty bad for a Watcher. My father was pretty famous on the council, you must have heard when he left. Since he didn't have a Slayer to train, he trained me." he takes a deep breath to calm himself before continuing. "I'll do what I can to make her ready, but for her sake, not yours. Just go back to England."

He looks at the teacher for moment before heading off in the direction of Gwen and Mercedes. When he finds them he still looks angry, but also his face shows some concern. "Are you girls alright with allof this? I know its a lot and will take awhile to accept. I'll answer any questions either of you have."

"well, since everyone else seems to be convincing... What is her name anyway? that this thing is a demon... Can someone help me think of something to tell the cops?"
 

"You're acting as if this is all serious." Mercedes stared at Matt for a long moment. "And you actually believe this? That I'm some kind of slayer girl, sent with mystical powers to kill a bunch of baddies? I don't even know how to fight. I practice cheerleading not kung fu."
 

"Yes, I do believe in the Watchers. My father was one, and since he was not chosen to train a Slayer he trained me. I can show you some of the bruises and scars if that helps." Matt lifts his shirt to show them a set of claw marks high up on his chest right above his heart. "Demons are real." he says letting his shirt fall back into place.

"I believe that you have the potential to be a Slayer. You just aren't one yet, and you wont be, not until the current Slayer has died. Once she has, you might gain her powers, it'll make you a target whether you believe it or not. If your going to get the powers they are a death sentence if your not ready." He sighs shrugging his shoulders in resignation.

"Its almost impossible that the Watchers Council would make a mistake in identifying you, they have been doing this Slayer/ Watcher Gig for a few centuries. Much as I think that teacher is a joke, if he is here it means you have the potential. Just know that the Watchers aren't the only ones who can help, I will if you'll have it."
 

"I...," Mercedes leaned back against the wall, staring at the opposite one with a bit of shock. Her dark eyes seem to glaze over slightly. "I want to tell you that you're out of your mind, but somehow, I can feel that you're telling me the truth."

For a few seconds she was quiet then her eyes cleared to a deep brown. "Then if what you're saying is true, there's a girl in danger! She needs help...but how can I help her? What can I do?"

"I don't know what you can do, I don't even know what I can do to help her. She has the full powers and as much as it pains me to say it, I'll never be as good as she can be, as good as you could be. What we might be able to do is help her get free, if we can find out from that injured Watcher who has her. But he didn't look to coherent. I really don't want to, but we might have to find out from Mr. Grey exactly whats going on, he isn't my favorite person if you didn't notice. Condolences on having him for a watcher."
 

OOC: What exactly do I know of the current slayer? What does the elder watcher say? and sorry for pushing mercedes in a fight, I though she allready had the slayer powers.

IC: Tom, William, as for the story, I think it's just as good to stick to the truth, except that we aal don't know what the thing is.
And we'll beter get Mr. Reberts here to a hospital, maybe just waiting for ambulance will do. Are any of you friends with mMercedes or Matt?
 

Gwen drags her attention away from Matt's chest and back to the matter in hand. OK, that just sounded wrong...

"So this really is all for real? No, never mind, I've seen enough to know it is. Is there anything I can do to help?"

Mercedes nodded slowly, her brows furrowing slightly before she pushed herself off the wall. "Then come on, Slayerettes," she declared with a wink at the two of them. "Let's see what Mr. G knows about this and if the older...'watcher'...can tell us more." With that, she headed back to where Mr Grey and the others were standing with the injured brown-suited man.

OOC: =P don't apologize to ME, silly, I don't care whether you push her into a fight or not. It's Mercedes that cares.
