That night was a success. Though they didn't find Xander Harris the vampires of Sunnydale found, drained and delivered over two dozen people to the hosptial. They weren't all close to the slayer, but they did get her mother Joyce, and the other Slayer Faith. Those she knew but wasn't particularly close to included Jonathan Levinson and Harmony Kendall.
They woke in the hospital with an alien presence in their mind. All panicked briefly, but soon the presence forced them to calm down. Within seconds it settled over them, covering them in a numbing blanket. It felt to good to do anything but submit to it.
