"Umm I'm sorry, could you ask me that again?" She shifted in her chair and she looked away, and toward the dirty floor as she felt heat rush up her neck to her face. She glanced at Willow, her dear computer hacker friend, as also a Slayette. Willow gave out a helpless shrug although Xander had a look of amusement on his face. Buffy shrunk back into her desk even more, hoping to completly disappear.
"I asked if you would care to join us today Miss Summers." Answered Mr.
Arnold their new History teacher. It seemed they were always getting new
teachers, and there was this huge problem with substitutes, and of
course, Xander always happens falls for them, as long as they where female.
"Umm sure, sorry." Murmured Buffy quietly, already distracted from all
history and all other means. Mr. Arnold started yet agian to drown on about the
early 1800's, and yet again Buffy's mind wandered off towards Angel. She just
HAD to figure out how to cure him, give him back his soul... He diserved
thatmuchat least. She wrote Willow a short desperate letter to help her find
something to help Angel, for about the billionth time.
"Hey Willow? Pssssst! Here." With that done, she grabbed all her books into
her arms and murmured some lame excuse about not feeling very well and made a
bee-line for the classroom door. < I have got to get out of here! NOW! Or I will
completely flip!... Not that I haven't already or anything.> Buffy's tall
black heeled boots made an many echoing sounds on the floor corridor as she
headed toward the library. Buffy pushed open the door with a swing her hip and
flung her books across the room, making a huge dent in the wall were they hit.
She didn't notice. She flung herself into an other uncomfortable chair, head in
her hands she started to weep uncontrollably.
"Buffy... what has happened?" Giles British accent seemed harsher than
usual. He had never seen Buffy cry, let alone weep. He reached out to put a hand
on her shoulder but drew it back. Not knowing what to do. He really wasn't very
good at this kind of thing, he'd never been good at it. He was her Watcher, she
was suppose to be tough, and strong. Then again, so was he.
"Oh Giles, it's terrible, terrible! I just can't handle it any more." With
saying this she ripped the shiny metal cross off her throat, as if to make a
point and continued "Right know if a vampire so mush as will growl at me I
will..." The library door burst open and Buffy stopped in mid-sentence, like a
deer frozen in the head lights of a car. She was ready to run. She looked away
from everyting. Embarrassed. Willow briskly in walked, Xander right on her
heels.
"What's wrong Buffy? Mr. Arnold is really worried about you, he even excused
us for the rest of class, he wants us to see what we can do to help you." Xander
said stepping up behind Buffy, as he started to massage her shoulders
tentatively. "No wait dumb question. Sorry Buffster.Let me guess, it has to do
with Dead boy? Umm Angel?"
Willow already on her way to the computer, in quick hurried strides. She sat
down on the well cushioned chair and started to type away at the computer, she
seemed to completely vanish into the computer. She was tapping away at it at an
incredible speed.
"Buffy I'm not finding anything here that can help you, and your going to
be late for your next class. The bells about to ring..." Giles called out from
behind a big wall of books "You might want to be on your way, if Principal
Snyder finds out your skipping classes, you won't be here for a while to come,
which means no research to help Angel. You already skipped English." You could
hear him flipping page after page of diffrent books
"Screw English Giles, SCREW the world at this point. I
really couldn't care any less... EVER! And I'm not leaving till we find
something!!! Is that to much to ask for?" Buffy called from the corner of the
room were all her secret weapons where, everything from what to use to stake
Vampires, Werewolf's and other Undead creatures of Sunnydale. She looked back to
her work. The stake she'd been on the verge of making looked really funny, it
was to way to small only about 4 inches long. Instead of the genirous foot it
was suppose to be and it was so pointy! Buffy immediately dropped it and took a
step back from it.
"Umm Giles? Your right. I'm going to class know."
*Much later at Buffy's house
"Damn it! I forgot my freakin' cross at the library. Now I'm gonna have to go
get it back." Buffy cried out in her sleep. Buffy sat bolt-up in bed "Why the
heck did that stupid dream wake me up? Wired. it's only a cross." Her feet hit
the cold floor, and with a shudder she pushed herself from her bed.
"Why Is my Slayer sense tingling ?" She wondered out loud. She then saw the
glint of silver off the side of the side walk. She went to inspect and picked
it up , let out a gasp and put the object in her skirt pocket and continued
walking, with a smile on her face.
Buffy went to the back door of the library and tapped on the door twice, looked
around to make sure no one was watching and tapped the door again. She heard
soft footsteps, definitely not Giles. She waited patiently.
"Well at least my sense went off!" Buffy whispered to herself just as the door
opened and Willow peeked out trough the gap in the door. A look of surprise came
across her face, then one of guilt. Or was it one of sorrow? Willow opened the
door and the sound of Aqua hit Buffy full blast .
"Umm , hey Buffy. I’m kind of not done some research yet." Willow said in a
very quiet voice that seemed got more and more high pitched with every sylabol
"Aqua Will? What's it for and the coffee?" Buffy cried out with happyness.
"Umm... Well I was really tiered and I needed to stay awake, to finish this
research. I found the Aqua tape in your locker, I hope you don't mind. There
actually pretty good, not to mention I needed some caffeine, and I couldn't get
chocolate or anything cause I didn't have any money, I just borrowed the
teachers lounge coffee maker." Willow said looking very flushed.
"So your finally waking up and smelling the roses Will, good for you!" Buffy
told Willow happily.
"Would you like some coffee Buffy?" Willow asked very uncomfortably
"So basically you've been here since school ended and you didn't find ANY
information? What's with the net, you'd think they'd have how to give a demon
back his *damned* soul! God! Damn it, I had had such a good feeling on my way
over, my Slayer sense must be going." Buffy exclaimed, obviously brooding.
"I've tried Buffy. But the net doesn't have anything on how to give a
demon a back his *damned soul*, and what's this about your *Slayer sense*
thingy? Willow mussed. "And why exactly did you come to school, it's not just
cause of this *Slayer sense thing.* It's too late, you shouldbe in bed, or
Slaying or something." finished Willow.
"Well no I didn't just come cause of my *Slayer sense thingy*, I had a dream
that was all dark, evil and really freaky. Then it suddenly flashed to my cross,
and it showed a yellow object. Then I woke up. I knw I had left my cross here at
the school... I kind of threw it at Giles. I came to get it. Be right back. It's
in the weapons room I think... Somewhere. Now If you'll excuse me for a moment."
Buffy rushed off toward the in closed area where all her weapons were secretly
hidden from anyones view.
Buffy slowly surveyed the room for her silver cross necklace.
Buffy Slowly made her way back to Willow.
“Umm Buffy ? The computer just got screwed, we’ll have to ...Ahem...We’ll have
to go use the computer room to use a computer.” The voice ofWillow rung out,
somewhat forced.
“So here we are in Miss Calender’s old computer class, I certainly don’t feel
any dčjŕ vü, Nope, none, nada. I feel completely at ease and feel nothing.”
Whispered Willow hoarsely to Buffy.
“I’m having an other Slayer Vibe here, only this one is really, really,really
good. Buffy didn’t realize she had said it out loud till she lookedat Willow .
Willow gave her a really weird look.
“Huh?” Willow just stared at Buffy clearly confused just stared at Buffy.
Buffy seeing her friends confusion tried to explain.
“It’s just a feeling I get when soothing is about to happen, when something bad
is around, or I over looked soothing, it can be a good Vibe or it can be bad
Vibe , and this is a really good Vibe, best one I have ever had. It’s just like
a 6th sense to me , and it’s giving me a really good vibe.” Buffy almost flew to
Miss Calender’s desk at the front of the desk.
“WILLOW! It’s over here, COME ON!!!” Buffy cried out very, very excitedly.
“Willow I just found something that is going to change us, for the rest of our
lives or at least a while anyway.” Buffy glanced at her fast approaching friend
and leapt for joy.
