Pride Slayer

“…I really don’t have time to be dragged around,” Giles huffed as he was deposited somewhere on the African savannah.

“Good to see you, too,” Xander grinned. “Thanks for coming.”

“Yes… Sorry, I’ve missed you as well. Five hours in a jeep has made me rather...” He sighed. “You said you had trouble with a new Slayer? You’ve been doing wonderfully here.”

“I think Willow’s spell might have gone a little wonky. I mean, this Slayer’s a sweetheart, but…”

Giles froze when a large lioness walked up and rubbed against his hip.

Xander chuckled, “G-man, meet Nala of Pride Rock!”

LOL Love it!

Thank you. I'm so glad.

OMG, this was terrific! First there's grumpy Giles, then Nala as a Slayer - you got so much into this drabble, and all of it was perfect. Well done!

Thanks so much. Was hard to get it down to 100 words, but I think the story came through well. I'm so happy you liked it.

Awww! LOL! That was great!

[gilescandy.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Happy to give you a laugh.

Wha! Priceless. Had me laughing so hard. The gold star is totally yours.

Yay! I did good. I figured this one had to be mine since I spend so much time around big cats. It's an amazing feeling to have something so powerful rub up against you, and I loved giving that experience to Giles. I'm so happy you liked it.

Wee, first gold star for my work in Giles shorts!

LOL - wonder how Giles is going to teach this Slayer! Well done!

[gilescandy.livejournal.com]

I think he might have met his match with this one. Thank you. So glad you enjoyed it.

LOL, awesome story! The demons and vampires aren't going to stand much of a chance with this Slayer!

[gilescandy.livejournal.com]

Thank you. And no they won't. This Slayer is always packin' her weapons.

This story is great. It reminded me of, the picture with Tony Head and a cheetah.

[gilescandy.livejournal.com]

I saw that picture! It's a little hard to convey the feeling of standing next to a big cat. More so with a word limit. I'm so glad you liked it.
