Crossover fic: The Chinese Slayer Murders

I know I should be getting on with my WIPs but I’m afraid I’ve been bitten by a plot bunny and it won’t let me write anything else. This is a crossover of BtVS with the ‘Judge Dee’ novels of Robert van Gulik (historical detective stories set in Tang Dynasty China in the Seventh Century). It should be a fairly short one; I estimate 3, possibly 4, chapters. This first chapter is 4,300 words, PG. In Buffy chronology it is post-series and the comics (Spit! We shall speak of them no more!) do not exist.

Summary; 670 AD, Lan-fang, the Western frontier of Tang China. Judge Dee is faced with a baffling double murder. A distinguished visiting scholar from the capital, and a mysterious master swordswoman, have been found dead in strange circumstances. He is determined to devote all his resources to the investigation; what he doesn’t need is to be distracted by two peculiar women who claim to be visitors from the far future…
