So, no Spike in a wheelchair? Funny that adding in John M. so far has improved things for the good guys, in a way. We're all hoping Drusilla is ok now. If John gets a rep for aiding the slayer, the mayor won't be too happy....

Action-filled chapter, nicely done. Will be interesting to see how the scoobies react to a competent police officer - and then of course how the rest of the police reacts to John's report.

awesome so far. Loved coming back to town to read several chapters. (I have been out of town with no internet access I was going through withdraw) I thought it was going to start with Buffy and Faith and the killing of the deputy mayor guy but this is better.

Really enjoying this story! Just went back and reread the updated Principal Rodent speech though, and man, you took out the best line! That part about "if she is a delinquent maybe I'm looking at the reason" was awesome, I could totally have pictured McClane saying that. Anyway though, great concept, and I really feel like you've got the right voices for the characters. Looking forward to see where you go with it :)
EDIT: I guess... to me it just read like a logical extension of his first two lines, the "we're only looking at her as a victim in this matter" and "no one could prove the arson either time" things. As if he'd given Snyder a chance to back up his bluster, concluded he was full of crap, and verbally smacked him for it. Either way though, still an awesome story :)
Comments from author:
I liked the line too, but Oxnate argued, correctly, that it betrayed information that McClane shouldn't have at that point. McClane wouldn't have concluded that Snyder's accusations against Buffy were baseless with so little information.
