Buffy's expression darkened as she gave a slow, ominous shake of her head. It wasn't just a flutter of nerves dancing in the pit of her stomach; it was a familiar dread, a chilling sensation reminiscent of the darkest days back home when the malevolent force of The First had waged its psychological warfare upon them. The question lingered like a shadow in her mind: how far was this new threat willing to go? Would it content itself with mere mischief, or did it hunger for something far more sinister? Though she would never openly admit it, a tremor of apprehension coursed through her veins.

"The First," Buffy murmured, her voice tinged with resignation as she delivered the grim diagnosis. "It's responsible for these wiggins, sorry to say, and who knows what else it's got up its sleeve." Her words hung heavy in the air, a somber acknowledgment of the insidious power wielded by their unseen adversary. "That means we're dealing with more than just your run-of-the-mill bloodsuckers. Anything could come slithering through that pretty blue portal."

Her gaze flickered towards the alleyway entrance, where a motley crew of figures clad in antiquated attire slinked into view like predators stalking their prey. Buffy's jaw tensed as she sized them up, a flicker of recognition igniting within her. Without a word, she met Faith's gaze and offered a subtle nod, a silent agreement to pursue the looming threat before it could escalate into a full-blown catastrophe. It felt like a risky gambit, a potential diversion orchestrated by unseen hands, but in the dimly lit confines of the club, they were the only vampires in sight.

With a sense of grim determination, Buffy led the way, her senses attuned to the faintest whisper of danger lurking in the shadows. Whatever lay ahead, she was ready to face it head-on, armed with nothing but her wits and the unwavering resolve of a Slayer on the hunt.
