kerkevik_2014This sixth drabble of the ten-part pre-series buffyverse stories sees us still in the early days of the German retreat in the western theatre; which became a collapse after the abortive Ardennes offensive.

LENGTH: 100

He had to stay with her; despite the risk.
They were unaware they were become the hunted.
May the Goddess watch over us all,
'tis ok to be Takei,
