Plan of Attack

by Red Wolf

Spike watched as Dawn bounced off the alley walls with an occasional giggle. He was still annoyed that her plan had won out, but had been forced to make the best of a bad situation.

There was a roar and a flurry of movement in the darkness. Spike leapt to Dawn's rescue and saw a head bounce on the roadway before being blinded by a fountain of blood.

Heedless of the gore soaking her jeans, Dawn knelt by Spike's side. "Told you it'd work, but you might want to come by my off side next time. It's much less messy."

I loved this little scene. But, then... I always love your Spawn-centered drabbles and fics! :) — via LiveJournal — posted by tinpanalley at 28.09.2007 17:24 AEST |

Thank you. Funny what the muse does with a challenge — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 28.09.2007 17:25 AEST |

Dawn's a sharp cookie. Um, if you can picture a sharp cookie... never mind.

I like the fact that your Dawn is always grown up, and that you understand her awkward teenage moments in the show were — awkward teenage moments — via LiveJournal — posted by Mark Hunter at 28.09.2007 17:26 AEST |

I'd like to think Dawn would have been closer to my ideal if idiot scriptwriters hadn't bollocksed her character up and then pretty much shafted her for the final season — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 28.09.2007 17:26 AEST |

Oh, Dawn was in the final season?

I did like the scene where she Tazer'd Xander and took back control of her own destiny, though. Too bad she didn't get to do a little more during Chosen, but by then the show was so choked with characters it's a wonder she could move at all — via LiveJournal — posted by Mark Hunter at 28.09.2007 17:27 AEST |

Loving it, even with a I told you so Dawn! — via LiveJournal — posted by woman_of_ at 28.09.2007 17:28 AEST |

Spike's understandably protective, but Dawn does know her limits — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 28.09.2007 17:29 AEST |

Go Dawn! Nice — via LiveJournal — posted by spuffyduds at 28.09.2007 17:30 AEST |

Thank you! — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 28.09.2007 17:31 AEST |

Go Dawn! Also, Spike's so cute when he's being overprotective. (Um, and I think you mean heedless in the last paragraph, not mindless. Dawn's not a zombie.) — via LiveJournal — posted by Elizabeth Culmer at 28.09.2007 17:31 AEST |

Spike is rather cute in protective mode.

Thanks for the catch — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 28.09.2007 17:32 AEST |
