Xander pulled out and smacked Anya on the ass. She didn't respond to it merely walking out the door, totally nude. Every woman in the apartment complex seemed to be joining her, even mothers carrying their children, and helping old women along. The scene outside was the same. Every woman in Sunnydale was marching outside of town. The men got out of their way, except for occasionally coping a feel. No one objected.
Looking around Anya saw her friends, Buffy, Dawn, Willow, and Tara. She also noticed a few women with blood around their mouths. So they were really vampires.
A strange mist seemed to seep out of the children and vampires. It was pure white for the children and grey for the vamps. It seemed to circle around the middle aged and old women and started changing things. The teenaged women and the vamps around that age when turned weren't affected. But the children started growing, and the older women started growing younger. When it was done they all looked to be between 15 and their mid-20s.
Anya knew when to stop and so did all the others. They were in the desert outside of town and several people, or at least they looked like people stood there. Anya knew better. These were really gods. They were speaking to each other now, so she waited until they chose to address her. SHe could wait forever to hear their voices directed at her.
"This wouldn't have worked in any other town. Taking the youth from babies and children we would have probably ended up with a bunch of women around middle age. But with the vamps immortality it can make the youth more potent, and then lock them in at the ages we chose."
The speaker then looked at the women, smiling. "So, why are you here?"
Anya beamed. She knew the answer.
