INT. SUMMERS' HOME - LIVING ROOM - NIGHT

We're continuing where we left off in Episode Eight -- same night, a little later. Xander uses a tape measure to measure the window frames (the glass has not yet been replaced.) Willow, Dawn and Anya work on cleaning up the wreckage.

Willow nods.

Xander doesn't want to talk about it. He focuses on his work.

EXT. SUNNYDALE STREET - NIGHT

Black boots walk along the street. We move up the body, we see the black outfit, black leather duster, the cocky swagger...

We get to the face and reveal ANDREW. Dressed up like the Spike of old. Trying desperately to look cool.

Warren falls in step beside him.

Warren motions to his chest. Andrew tries to touch him... and his hand PASSES right through Warren's chest, as though Warren were a ghost.

Andrew grows noticeably more anxious.

Warren MORPHS into Jonathan.

Andrew's becoming more and more anxious.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - BUFFY'S ROOM - NIGHT

CLOSE ON ropes being tightened. Pull back to reveal Buffy tying Spike to a sturdy chair in her bedroom.

She works on lashing his hands to the chair arms.

She stops. Looks at him. He nods at the ropes.

They share a look.

They stare at each other. Then Buffy YANKS the ropes as tight as she can.

He stands up, walks around to the front of his desk.

The boys look at each other, unsure what to make of him.

The boys do a double-check with each other, then nod.

There's a knock at the door. Principal Wood looks mildly perturbed.

He walks over and opens the door, finding Dawn.

Pause.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - KITCHEN - DAY

Buffy is on the phone.

INT. WATCHERS' COUNCIL BOARDROOM - DAY

Close on QUENTIN TRAVERS.

Quentin thinks about this.

He hangs up the phone. Thinks for a moment. As he does, we widen to reveal he's sitting at the head of a large boardroom table, surrounded by several other Watcher-types (including some people from Checkpoint) who are all looking grim and listening intently. We're in the council's War Room -- an old, collegiate-type English wood building with walls covered in maps and charts and diagrams. Tasteful wooden file cabinets line one of the walls.

Quentin looks at the others.

He turns his attention to a MAP on the wall. We ANGLE on it -- it's a large, ominous map of the world covered in black and red dots.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - BUFFY'S ROOM - DAY

Spike sits tied to his chair. He's going into serious blood withdrawal. He's sweating, breathing hard, half-lucid. Buffy sits across from him.

Spike shakes his head. Tries to keep himself under control.

He's unable to finish, jaw clenching. He presses his face into his shoulder. Buffy mistakenly thinks he's trying to wipe the sweat off his face.

She leans forward to help him, and as she gets close, Spike VAMPS and bites violently at her.

She jerks back. He keeps snapping and biting at the air. Pure animal. No sense of the man whatsoever.

He flails in his chair. Crazed.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - HALLWAY - DAY

Buffy talks to Willow in the hallway outside her room.

Buffy thinks about it.

Willow moves to leave, waits a beat.

Pause. Buffy considers her answer. Then:

We hold on her for a moment.

INT. SUNNYDALE HIGH SCHOOL - BASEMENT - DAY

We're in a dark, nondescript part of the basement. Andrew and Warren stand side-by-side, looking down at something (we don't see what.) Andrew holds a large knife in his hand.

Andrew nods.

Andrew nods.

ANGLE on what they're looking at: a cute little PIG (about the size of Babe.) It sits there, happily looking up at Andrew.

ANGLE Warren and Andrew.

ANGLE the pig. It's cute.

ANGLE Warren and Andrew, both staring at the pig.

Andrew starts nodding.

Andrew's nodding, he's feeling it.

Andrew LUNGES with his knife after the pig. It darts out of the way. Andrew lands on the ground in a heap.

He tries to stand up, gets himself caught up in the folds of his leather coat, and falls flat on his face again. The pig runs around.

Andrew rights himself, chases after the pig.

Andrew runs around. The pig keeps getting the best of him.

Andrew gives a DEATH CRY and pounces again, knife swinging. He misses the pig, hits the ground (or the wall) hard. He crumples in a heap.

The pig scampers away down the hall.

Warren looks to the heavens in frustration.

Andrew looks up at him from the ground.

INT. BUTCHER SHOP - DAY

We're at the counter of a butcher shop. Lots of meat everywhere. A surly BUTCHER mans the counter.

Reverse angle to reveal Andrew, still in his coat, looking nervous and severely out of place. He holds up his ticket, steps forward.

The Butcher looks at him like he's an idiot.

The Butcher goes to fill the order. Andrew waits uncomfortably for a few beats.

He tries to nod hellos to the handful of people waiting around him. He has guilty written all over his face.

Andrew, paying for a big paper grocery bag of meat at a cash register. He's nervous, eager to get out of there.

He picks up the bag (it's big, he has to use both arms) and turns fast, hurrying out of the store, not looking, and barrels full speed into a similarly unaware WILLOW.

They both go crashing to the ground. The contents of Andrew's bag go flying everywhere.

ANGLE Andrew. He breathes in sharply.

ANGLE Willow, recognition crossing her face. Wide shot: the two of them, on the ground, amidst a mess of meat and quart bags of blood, staring at each other, not knowing what the hell to do.

In the background, the surly Butcher (either not noticing the Willow and Andrew mess or not caring) calls out the next number.

EXT. ALLEY - DAY

Andrew rounds the corner and runs into a dead end/wall. Willow's right behind him -- she grabs him by the back of the neck.

Andrew whips around, hands covering his face, cowering.

Willow, who up until this point has been mostly confused and suspicious, becomes hurt, angry. We see pain on her face.

Andrew thinks about this. Shit.

He frantically tries to figure out what to do. Grows some spine.

Willow doesn't say anything.

Andrew's still very anxious.

Andrew shuts right up.

Though she's bluffing, we see real anger shine through in her speech.

Andrew stands there, eyes wide in terror

It's hard to tell if she's bluffing anymore.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - LIVING ROOM - DAY

BAM! Willow shoves Andrew through the front door by the scruff of his neck. He's carrying the grocery bag from the butcher's shop. Xander's in the living room, putting in new window glass. Anya and Dawn are helping him.

Andrew's beginning to suspect he's been had.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - DAWN'S ROOM - DAY

Xander tosses Andrew into a chair and begins to tie him up (nothing too elaborate, we're going to undo him in a bit.) Anya stands nearby, holding Andrew's coat, going through the pockets.

She stares at him, drops his coat on the ground. Steps on it.

He pulls the ropes tight.

Xander pulls up a chair, straddles it backwards. Anya stands behind him, arms folded, glaring.

Andrew thinks about this.

Andrew spits his answer out way too fast, as though he's been rehearsing it for the last half hour:

Anya EXPLODES.

She grabs him, starts shaking him.

Andrew whimpers in fear.

Xander looks genuinely surprised at Anya's behavior.

She slaps him, hard, across the face. Andrew screams in pain.

Xander shoves himself in between the two of them.

She breathes hard, fury splashed across her face.

Anya breathes. Andrew whimpers, tears starting to flow.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - BUFFY'S ROOM - DAY

Buffy holds a quart bag of blood up to Spike's mouth (he's in vamp-face.) He's bitten straight through the bag and drinks from it hungrily, a starving animal.

Buffy's face betrays no emotion.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - BATHROOM - DAY

Xander and Anya hurry into the bathroom, each bursting with excitement.

She shakes her hand like it's stinging

Buffy walks in. Anya doesn't miss a beat, nods to her, all tough and NYPD Blue-like.

She leans up against the wall, rubs the back of her neck.

Xander goes with it.

Anya and Buffy look at each other. What? Xander looks at the ground.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - BUFFY'S ROOM - DUSK

Buffy walks in. Spike's no longer in vamp-face. He looks exhausted, beaten, but coherent.

Spike nods.

Spike looks around. It seems hard for him to talk.

Spike thinks about it.

Spike nods.

Spike laughs.

Buffy bristles ever so slightly at this. Spike pretends he doesn't notice.

Spike hesitates, then decides to say it.

Buffy's taken aback by his abruptness.

Buffy bristles, but doesn't back away.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - DAWN'S ROOM - DUSK

Andrew sits, red-faced, apprehensive. Xander walks in carrying a glass of water. He sets the glass down on the nightstand, walks to Andrew, who flinches when Xander gets near him.

Xander begins to untie him.

Andrew looks at Xander warily, rubs his wrists once they're free.

He picks up the glass of water, offers it to Andrew.

Andrew sizes him up, not knowing what to think... but then takes the glass and drinks. He keeps his eyes on Xander.

Xander exhales.

Xander tries very, very hard not to let this shake him.

He adjusts, thinks about it.

From outside the door:

The door flies open. Anya comes CHARGING into the room like a bull. Andrew starts yelling in fear.

Anya goes for Andrew's throat, knocking him over backward in his chair. Xander mock-tries to break them up.

She shoves Xander back and SLAPS him hard across the face.

Xander grabs his face in pain and (away from Andrew's gaze) gives her a look: Ow! What the hell are you doing?

She winces. Sorry about that. Then she puts her mean face back on and turns and POUNCES ON Andrew.

Andrew SCREAMS under her assault.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - BUFFY'S ROOM - DUSK

Buffy and Spike, mid-conversation. We HEAR Andrew's muffled cries and some violent THUMPS pour through the walls into Buffy's room.

Buffy frowns.

Spike nods.

Buffy gets up, opens the door, leaves the room. As she shuts the door behind her, REVEAL The First, in the form of Spike now standing in the room with us. He walks over and addresses Spike in the chair.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - DAWN'S ROOM - DUSK

The door swings open. Buffy sticks her head inside.

Reveal the scene she's looking at:

Dawn's room, trashed. Furniture flipped over. Xander, sitting against the wall, holding his face. Anya, on top of Andrew on the ground, one hand around his neck, the other arm in mid-strike, about to hit him again. Andrew, wide-eyed, looking at Buffy for help, shaking his head frantically -- no, everything's not okay.

Buffy nods.

She shuts the door.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - HALLWAY - DUSK

We're with Buffy as she shuts the door to Dawn's room. As soon as the door's closed, the muffled sounds of violence begin again. Andrew screaming, glass-breaking.

Buffy walks to her room, places her hand on the doorknob... and stops. Realizes she can hear Spike talking to someone on the other side.

CLOSE ON Buffy as she puts her ear up to the door.

We hear Spike LAUGH. Then his ramblings turn into SINGING.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - BUFFY'S ROOM - DUSK

Buffy walks in. Spike's changed completely. Where he was once exhausted, jaded, broken, he's now sunny, pleasant. He sits up straight in this chair, smiles when he sees Buffy.

Buffy's totally weirded out.

He nods to the blood bags on the nightstand.

Buffy's on guard, This is weird... She keeps her eyes on Spike, crosses over to the nightstand. She reaches down to pick a bag up, takes her eyes off Spike momentarily, and as soon as she does he EXPLODES out of the chair, shattering the sturdy chair to splinters.

Vamp-faced (we don't need to see the morph, we can do it in a cut, this all happens fast), he attacks Buffy, punching her and knocking her across the room.

She hits the wall and goes down hard.

Screaming in animal rage, Spike turns toward the wall separating Buffy's room from Dawn's room...

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - DAWN'S ROOM - DUSK

Anya's got Andrew up against the wall. He's spilling his guts.

WHAM -- Spike's arm comes blasting through the wall, right near Andrew's head. Anya jerks back in surprise.

WHAM -- Spike's other arm comes tearing through. He grabs Andrew by the throat/chest and YANKS.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - BUFFY'S ROOM - DUSK

Spike TEARS Andrew completely though the wall into Buffy's room.

He holds Andrew's body up and BITES DEEP into his neck.

Buffy shakes her head.

Xander and Anya walk down the stairs into the room.

Buffy shakes her head.

Buffy shakes her head.

Everybody looks at him.

He starts thinking about it.

He walks around, he's on a roll.

She turns to Willow and Dawn.

INT. SUNNYDALE HIGH - PRINCIPAL WOOD'S OFFICE - NIGHT

Principal Wood is at his desk. It's late, it's dark. He puts some files in his briefcase and heads for the door, turning the light off behind him.

INT. SUNNYDALE HIGH - HALLWAY - NIGHT

Principal Wood walks through the hallway carrying his briefcase. He seems to be the only one left in the school, and now he's calling it a day.

As he's walking out, he passes the door to the basement, and something causes him to pause. Hmm.

He turns back and opens the basement door.

INT. SUNNYDALE HIGH BASEMENT - NIGHT

Principal Wood (still carrying his briefcase) walks through the dark basement. He doesn't seem lost; he seems to know where he's going.

INT. SUNNYDALE HIGH BASEMENT - ANTECHAMBER - NIGHT

Principal Wood walks into the antechamber, looks down and sees Jonathan's decaying body (not too decayed -- just a little rough around the edges) sprawled out on the Seal of Danzaithar, exactly where we left him in Episode Seven.

Principal Wood studies Jonathan's body for a beat, his face betraying nothing.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - BASEMENT - NIGHT

We're in the basement. It's dark, moonlight casting harsh shadows. Spike's on the ground, somewhere between conscious and unconcious. He's been chained to the wall, manacles attached to each wrist and ankle. His face has dried blood on it from his encounter with Buffy.

Buffy comes down the stairs carrying a rag and a bowl of water. She crouches down next to Spike, sets the bowl on the floor, and begins washing the blood off Spike's face with the rag.

Spike starts to regain consciousness, looks around a little, shame, fear on his face.

He doesn't say anything for a while, just looks at Buffy, watches her wash him. Then:

Spike thinks about this. He's scared, not in control.

He stops her from washing him, becomes a little more coherent, tries to sit up.

Spike's mind starts racing.

She looks at him. He's serious. No emotion. Just cold hard logic.

She starts to understand what he's saying, grows somber.

Spike steps forward until the chains are taut.

He rattles her.

He paces back and forth (as much as he can in the chains.) He falls in and out of shadow.

He falls into full shadow.

He begins to pace again.

Spike RAGES at his chains.

She begins to pace.

Buffy gets close enough to him so that when he strains as hard as he can against his chains (as he will when he says his next lines) he's only inches away from being able to touch her.

Buffy's words take Spike by surprise. He falls back, his chains go slack. We see it play out on his face, a brief flicker of hope, and then the lights go out and --

BOOM!

The basement window/door EXPLODES inward. A black hooded figure (like we've seen in previous episodes this season) comes crashing into the room.

Before Buffy has time to react, he's on her -- CRACK -- hitting her across the face with the staff he's carrying, sending her flying across the room.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - LIVING ROOM - NIGHT

BOOM! BOOM! More hooded figures come CRASHING in through the living room windows -- this all happens really fast, like a precision military strike. The front door is KICKED IN off its hinges.

Willow and Dawn, who had been in the living room doing research, SCREAM as they're suddenly showered with broken glass. Hooded figures SWARM around them.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - KITCHEN - NIGHT

Xander and Anya are already on the move toward the screams in the living room when:

BOOM! a figure comes crashing through the kitchen door and CRACK hits Anya right in the back of the head with his staff. She drops to the ground.

Xander wheels to confront him and CRACK he's hit from behind by another hooded figure running in from the other way.

As Xander's body drops, the two hooded figures step forward. Their hoods fall back (they can even pull them back if it feels more natural.) We see their faces for the first time:

They're the Bringers (the scary guys with symbols for eyes from AMENDS.)

Off their faces we:

She BLASTS the Bringer across the room.

ANGLE Dawn: Bringer charging her, she drops to the ground and flips him with his own momentum, sending him crashing into the wall.

ANGLE Willow: wheeling to help Dawn when CRASH! Another Bringer comes in through the window. Before Willow has time to react -- WHACK -- he hits her with his staff, two-handed, across the throat.

She flies back, hits the wall, drops to the ground.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - BLUE ROOM - NIGHT

CRASH! Buffy comes flying through the door to the basement, shattering it to pieces.

She lands hard in the hallway.

The Bringer she's fighting comes jumping through the hole in the door, staff in hand.

He swings at her on the ground. She rolls, flips up to her feet (their momentum should carry them through the middle hallway to the foyer.)

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - FOYER - NIGHT

As he charges her again, she's ready for him. She uses his momentum, SLAMS him hard against the wall, catches his staff as he's dropping it and WHACK hits him across the face.

Just as he drops, two more Bringers come flying through the front door and hit Buffy from behind, driving her hard into the stairs.

One keeps running, heading straight upstairs, while the other raises his staff and WHACK hits Buffy right across the face.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - LIVING ROOM - NIGHT

Dawn battles her Bringer -- we're towards the back of the living room, near the Blue Room. He swings his staff at her, she catches it and elbows him HARD across the face.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - DAWN'S ROOM - NIGHT

A terrified Andrew (whose neck is bandaged) works frantically on the bed to untie his ropes (his hands and feet are both tied.)

The Bringer comes into the room, sees Andrew, and drops his staff.

Andrew's eyes go wide. He starts to scream.

The Bringer reaches into his robe and pulls out TWO KNIVES.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - FOYER/STAIRS - NIGHT

The Bringer on the stairs hits a dazed Buffy again across the face and then takes off running up the stairs.

Buffy rolls, regains her balance, sees him running away up the stairs and chases him.

OMITTED

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - HALLWAY - NIGHT

The Bringer runs into the hall, Buffy hot on his heels. She grabs him from behind, he wheels around, strikes out at her.

She dodges and kicks him right in the face -- CRACK -- and then spins and ELBOWS him across the jaw -- CRACK. He goes down hard. As he drops, she hears Andrew screaming:

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - DAWN'S ROOM - NIGHT

Buffy runs into the room just in time to see the Knife- Bringer lunge at Andrew on the bed.

Andrew dodges at the last possible second.

The Knife-Bringer rears back, tries to stab him again. Buffy catches his arm, spins him around.

He SWIPES at her, kicks her, knocking her back.

They circle each other. He's got his knives. He swipes, swipes.

ANGLE Andrew, working frantically to untie his feet.

ANGLE Buffy. She circles with the Knife-Bringer...

As she turns, her back to the door, a second Bringer appears in the doorway, sees the action, and pulls out his own KNIVES.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - LIVING ROOM - NIGHT

Dawn approaches the Bringer she's knocked to the ground. She's holding his staff. She spins it up, ready to crack him across the head, and he SWEEPS her legs out from under her.

CRASH, she hits the ground hard. He's on her in a second, holding her down by the throat. She's choking, clawing, trying desperately to get away. She stares up at him in fear, we get a good look at his scary face.

He reaches into the folds of his robe, pulls out a knife.

He raises his arm, stabs down, when

WHAM!

A groggy, pissed-off Xander cracks him across the back of the head with a staff.

The Bringer drops, Xander hits him again -- CRACK -- right across the face.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - DAWN'S ROOM - NIGHT

Buffy, weaponless, in the middle of two Knife-Bringers. They circle, she's on guard, trying to figure out her move.

They swipe. She dodges. They swipe.

Andrew, who's been in the corner, finally gets his feet untied (his hands are still bound, though.)

He decides to make a run for it while The Knife Bringers are occupied.

He runs for the door. As he does so, WHIP-FAST Buffy reaches out and grabs him as he runs by.

WHACK! She uses him as a battering ram (old Jackie Chan gag) holding him by the shoulders and driving him into the Knife- Bringer's chest. Andrew and the Knife-Bringer crack heads together and the Knife-Bringer, stunned, drops back against the wall.

She wheels, still holding Andrew by the shoulders and does the exact same thing to the other Knife-Bringer. WHACK!

She tosses Andrew aside and rushes one of the Knife-Bringers. She grabs him by both arms and rips the knives out of his hands.

In one motion, she stabs with one arm across her body and plunges a knife right into the Bringer's stomach.

As she does this, the other Bringer rushes her, and she stabs him in the stomach with her other arm (this should end with her arms crossed and a knife in each Bringer's belly.)

She then pulls both knives out, uncrossing her arms in a slashing motion, and slashes each Bringer again with the opposite knife.

They drop to the ground, dead.

Xander runs into the room, staff raised, ready for action. He sees Buffy, and the bodies, and makes a face.

Buffy's still in fight mode, ready to move. She looks at Xander.

Buffy realizes what they were after.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - BASEMENT - NIGHT

Buffy and Xander come rushing down the stairs.

The room is empty.

Camera FINDS empty, broken chains on the ground.

INT. SUMMERS' HOME - LIVING ROOM - NIGHT

Aftermath. Dawn's tending to Anya on the couch, Willow's tending to herself and assessing the damage to the house. Buffy and Xander come walking through the living room.

Buffy walks over and examines the body of the Bringer Xander offed. She crouches down next to it.

Buffy takes a good look at the Bringer's face. A chill runs down her spine -- her worst fears being confirmed.

She stands up, thinks.

Her mind races.

She pauses, scared. She has everyone's full attention.

EXT. WATCHERS' COUNCIL - NIGHT

Establish an English-old-school type building.

INT. WATCHERS' COUNCIL BOARDROOM - NIGHT

The place has been RANSACKED. Maps are torn off walls, file cabinets are emptied, overturned.

Our Watcher-types from before are there. The atmosphere is frantic -- Some of the Watchers look as though they've been beaten up, subdued, others are cleaning up the mess, talking on phones excitedly, and just generally looking English and grim.

Through this all walks Quentin. He surveys the damage, a grave look on his face.

A fellow Watcher-type (call him BLAKE) briefs him.

Blake looks at Quentin, fear apparent on his race.

Quentin looks at him, tries to calm him.

Winston Churchill's words give Blake resolve, as they do all British people.

Quentin surveys the room, steps forward.

He gets everyone's attention.

The Watchers nod in agreement.

He paces, he's on a roll.

Everyone looks at him, nods grimly.

Everyone seems strengthened, resolved.

As he talks, he turns and opens up the map cabinet behind him. As he does so, we hear an audible CLICK and --

EXT. WATCHERS' COUNCIL - NIGHT

BOOM! The Council Building EXPLODES in a big fiery mess.

INT. SUNNYDALE HIGH BASEMENT - ANTECHAMBER - NIGHT

OVERHEAD SHOT: Bringers throw Spike's shirtless, battered body down onto a carved, wooden/metal symbol.

We're in the basement antechamber. Torches light the space. Bringers work industriously over a contraption they've assembled around the Seal of Danzalthar.

We don't get a clear look at it yet -- we see wood, chains. Whatever it is, they appear to be fastening Spike to it.

The First, in the form of Spike, surveys the scene with pride.

The Bringers pull Spike's arms out at his sides.

Bringers place large metal nails up against Spike's wrists. Other Bringers raise hammers...

WHAM! They nail Spike's arm to the symbol.

Spike SCREAMS in pain.

WHAM! They nail Spike's other arm. Spike SCREAMS and SCREAMS.

First/Spike circles around. Shrugs.

He MORPHS into Buffy She smiles, kneels down close next to Spike on the ground.

The Bringers working on Spike pull out knives, begin to cut down his chest (we don't see exactly what they're doing, we play it mostly off Spike's face.) Spike screams, his terror reaching crescendo.

The Bringers pull chains and begin to HOIST the symbol up into the air.

Spike is lifted upright and then begins to rise as the Bringers pull the chains tight. He rises up, up. This should end with Spike (and the symbol he's attached to) hanging high up in the air, directly above the Seal of Danzalthar.

We see that the Bringers have cut symbols into his chest. Blood begins to flow from his wounds.

First/Buffy looks up at him. Smiles.

Spike's blood begins to drip down onto the Seal. As it does, the Seal begins to ILLUMINATE, as it did in Episode Seven.

The Seal, illuminated, begins to SHIFT (like the box in Hellraiser) and then OPENS UP.

There seems to be nothing down there but a deep, black hole...

The Bringers begin to CHANT.

MAGICAL LIGHT begins to shine up through the hole in the ground. The Bringers continue their chant.

And then from the depths rises a horrible, terrifying UBERVAMPIRE (details TBD.)

The Ubervamp comes fully out of the ground, and we're left with a final shot (let's get as much of this as we can -- it should look epic): Spike, nailed to the symbol, bleeding, broken; the First/Buffy looking evil; Bringers spread out, chanting, looking scary; and a crazed, animal Ubervamp standing in the middle of it all.

The Ubervamp ROARS in fury.
