Btw - nothing mentioned here is a spoiler - all just speculation and random ideas that jumped into my head as I was thinking about this, so please, no yelling b/c I've ruined an episode, really, I haven't. I have no idea what Joss is planning. It's all for fun!



Rogue Demon Hunters, Inc.

A new BTVS/Angel spin-off from Really Bored Productionsâ„¢. Several of the underused and 'said goodbye' characters from the two popular shows have joined together to fight Rogue Demons... no wait, that's not right, they've joined together as rogues to fight demons, yeah, that's it...


Starring:

Nicholas Brendan as Xander Harris
Alexis Denisoff as Wesley Wyndam-Price
Christian Kane as Lindsey MacDonald
James Marsters as Spike
Elizabeth Rohm as Kate Lockley



Premise:

Intro:
Wesley's been 'kicked out' of Angel Investigations for various reasons and has moved to a little suburb just outside LA where he bumps into Kate, who is currently working as a bartender. Wes walks into the bar dressed, again, in his leathers and sees Kate, approaches her and they begin to talk. While they are talking about 'old times' and Angel and catching up, a familiar, sad voice is heard across the crowded bar. Wesley looks over toward the tiny stage, only to see Lindsey perched on a stool, softly singing a ballad. Kate inquires about the singing man, but Wes doesn’t answer.

Lindsey walks to the bar after his song, and sees Wesley. He talks with Wes for a moment, doesn't mention anything about Angel or the past, just says 'hi' then leaves.

Wes and Kate discuss their current employment situations and decide that they could work together as demon hunters since they both know about the wacky ways of the underworld, and Wes has some magical background. Kate's been doing reading on demons and such and has decided that she believes and is willing to work with Wes. So, they set up shop - probably out of Wes' apartment, and they're not very organized; it's just the two of them looking for strange occurances in the news and such, b/c they don't have a 'vision girl' and are reliant upon whatever they can find.

Wes and Kate are working on something at Wes' apartment - where they've set up a desk, and extra chair, and a filing cabinet - and there's a knock at the door - Kate answers and is confronted by the man from the bar. Lindsey enters and says he saw two guys snooping around out side Wes' building and thought he should inform Wes. Wes says thanx, and looks out the window, but sees nothing. There's another knock on the door and Wes goes to answer. He opens and finds Xander. He welcomes Xander in and is preparing to shut the door when a bleached vampire steps to the threshhold. Wes recognizes him and refuses to invite him in. "There's no way William the Bloody is coming in here!" (Figure Wes knows about William since he's a Watcher and William's pretty notorious.) Xander says to let him in, b/c he can't hurt anyone - and explains the 'chip' in Spike's head.

Reluctantly, Wes allows Spike to enter and Spike sees the demon Kate and Wes had been researching and he says he knows how to kill it. Wes and Kate let him come along, Xander and Lindsey too (don't know why - if someone has an idea toss it in), and they discover they all make a pretty good team and might be able to work together as Rogue Demon Hunters. Spike, of course, thinks this is a ridiculous name, but Wes insists and says he's in charge and will call it what he wants. Spike doesn't care, really, he just wants to get paid.

The Team:
Wes, Kate, Lindsey, Xander, and Spike have now all teamed up and are now working as "Rogue Demon Hunters" in the little suburban town outside LA.




Just a bit of fun, but it could make for an interesting tv show depending on what happens between now and, well, later...
 
Hmmm, I like! I have a couple of ideas that don't fit in at all with your premise so far, but I will hash it out so it makes more sense and post it here as an alternative. :)

Suggestions: Kate Wes and Lindsay all being in the same place at the same time is too much of a coincidence - is there anyway to make two of them at least there on purpose? I think Kate had met Lindsay before - at least once, maybe they could have hooked up already but Wesley's presence is the catalyst for action?
Do you have any idea for the motivation for Spike and Xander being there, and together?
 
yeah - i was trying to think of a way for Wes, Lindsey, and Kate to all end up in the same place at the same time and not look too coincidental --

and - it kinda is - it doesn't say that Wes sees Kate for the 1st time at the bar, says he bumps into her and that she works in a bar - they could have bumped into each other somewhere else - maybe at a grocery store or something --

then at the bar - Lindsey is singing - (and NO it's not a karaoke bar - Lindsey just sits and sings - he's been gone a while, maybe he's a regular and Kate knows him too)

and the motivation for Xander and Spike to be both travelling together and in this little suburban town? i was thinking about that, just didn't get that far b4 it was time to leave work - and i WASN'T staying over just to finish this thing! i can do it from home!

umm - let's see - Xander decides he needs to get out of Sunny'D and he's moping around and telling all his troubles to Spike - who doesn't care, but he's listening anyway - and they just decide to hot-foot it (okay - jump in Spike's DeSoto) out of town --

does that work?
 
thanx! Tabitha and i got bored and came up w/ a spin-off--

join in if you think of something --


Angel S2 spoiler ->

how long was Faith supposed to be in jail? i'm thinking it was quite a while b/c i think she's in on a murder charge, but, guess she could get parolled - she was kinda starting to turn around w/ Angel's influence - so maybe she's being good on the inside
 
In response to your spoiler

Can you imagine Faith being 'good' on the inside? I would imagine that is probably the worst place for her - too many people just waiting to push all the wrong buttons! Although, if she can deal with that, I guess she will probably come out 'cured'

As for RDH - been meaning to post some responses. Sorry for jumping the gun, I see that the meeting was not so coincidental after all. I like the idea of Kate and Wes, or Kate and Lindsay having kept in touch "off-screen" as it were. Feels like what might actually happen in real life.
Spike and Xander sharing their feelings of being "spurned lovers" - I love this idea! I can really imagine them in that kind of situation, annoyed with each other (because, lets face it, they don't exactly get along!), but unable to make the effort to go out and make new friends or whatever because they are all broken up inside. I can really imagine a scene with the two of them scoffing ice cream and moaning about their ex's, and not really listening to each other. :lol:

What would you see as the dynamic of the group after the initial mission? Do they have a particular purpose or are they just dealing with problems as they come up?



Now, as I have mentioned, my idea is bit different from this, so do you think I should post it in this thread? It is actually quite involved, and sorry to say it involves Riley, but no Spike! I have the team stay in L.A. but I have a whole conspiracy angle that I want to work out. Just need to put it together so it's a bit more coherent - should be up soon.
 
yeah - Spike and Xander have kinda already had the 'girls suck' talk - see BTVS ep "Triangle" (season 4, i think) - but yeah - they'd gripe to each other -- they're funny when they're not yelling at each other --


ummm - about your other idea - 1st - how could it not have Spike? <gasp> (sorry - big Spike fan) --

but - what ya could do, is toss it up as another potential spin-off --

or - if you wanna send it to me - we can see if we can work it into this one --

aren't there other characters who've left the show? we could have 2 'rogue' groups working at the same time ---
 
In response to tabitha's spoiler:

I think that Faith is genuinely good and a series of bad things led her down the wrong path...that doesn't mean she can't be good again....I personally think that she would be a great addition to the Angel team in future seasons...

I really don't think mine would work in with yours at all - I'll probably post it tonight, but I'll put a link here too though.

I like Spike too, but he just wouldn't work in my idea without it seeming a bit too contrived/convenient.
 
go for it!!

i wanna know what your idea is -- even tho it's got stupid-man in it -- i mean Riley -


no -seriously -- i wanna see what you have ---
 
Ok, have posted my alternative idea Here

Go have a look, if you like - but Riley alert! SOrry :eek:
 
hey - just a question --

do we wanna write any fics based on our two ideas? we could almost come up w/ a series -- I'm just tossing out the idea - not really anything as organized as some of the Virtual Series' out there, but just some random bits we throw together and post out here -- it could be an 'ASciFi exclusive' thing -- we post it only on ASciFi --- just an idea --

and we can probably work both Rogue Demon Hunter ideas ---

takers??
 
Oh if I had the ability to write fic I would be off and running with it... I would be more than happy if anyone wants to take any of my ideas and come up with something story-like.

I have been incredibly busy recently, but I will give the ficcing a try sometime soon maybe...
 
well - I'm currently in the middle of several stories, ATM, but if someone wants to help, I can probably help scribble something -

I don't wanna do the whole thing m'self b/c I'll run out of ideas - and things could get bland -

so - if someone just tosses out ideas, even, that might help --

can't say I could write 22 eps of RDH, Inc all on m'own, but I could get a few bits out - maybe ---
