Darla
|
It’s 1880, London, and Darla, Angelus, and Drusilla are all looming over a recent kill. Dru sulks, saying she feels alone. Angelus tells her that that’s not true, she has them. Drusilla disagrees, “[they] won't even hurt [her] just a little bit.”
Darla cynically responds that all she needs to do is ask while Dru points out that Angelus' mind is too full of “Grandmother” (( A title Darla does *not* appreciate )). She snaps at Dru and Drusilla responds saying, “don’t be cross. I could be your mummy” which, she later will.

Angelus suggests that since Dru’s so lonely she should make herself a companion. She fancies this idea, thinking it over outloud right as William runs right into them.
Did she pick the bravest, wisest knight in all the land as she wanted? Or the first drooling idiot that came along, as Darla suggested is anybodies guess.
Cutting to the Gypsy Village, 1898, Darla has ordered Spike and Drusilla to kill everyone in the camp as revenge for what they have done to Angelus. Drusilla and Spike have not been informed as to where Angelus is or what has happened to him. When Dru confronts Darla on it, the blonde vampire simply tells her to get back to slaughtering the masses.
Darla tells the leader of the camp that his family is alive now only through her protection and if he takes away the soul they’ve given her lover she will make sure his family stays alive. Sadly, at that moment, Spike comes swinging out of that wagon, having clearly drained the occupants.
Seeing a dead end, Darla snaps the leaders neck. Spike questions Darla’s wide eyed stare, but she doesn’t respond. As Dru sing-songs ‘they cried out for mercy’ repeatedly.
Darla orders them to spare none.
