[The vampire doesn't go after Anya, but there's a moment where it is clearly tempted, and that is the moment that Colin's fist connects with its jaw, sending it stumbling backwards and even succeeding in knocking out a few sharp teeth. And that's when Rin's sword finds it.
If it were a normal sword, Anya would be facepalming about now, but because it is on fire, stabbing the vampire through the chest with it actually works out. This time, the fire goes too deep for the vampire to have any chance of putting it out. It only takes a few moments to burn through its heart, and at that point the rest of its body turns to ash and falls, blackening the floor.
Not quite halfway up the stairs, Anya lets out a sigh of relief.]
