“Buffy what is it?” Willow practically ran to Buffy, so as not to crash into any computers she ran slowly. Buffy held up a yellow disc and showed it to Willow, a sigh of relief went trough Buffy , leaving her completely drained and tiered. The disc read:*Rekindling The Vampires Soul*
Willow turned on the new computer on Miss Calender’s desk. Angel had thrown the last one off her desk and it gone up in flames. “Where did you find the disk Buffy ?” Willow asked with great enthusiasm.
“It was between the two desks on the floor, It was really jammed in there.” Replied Buffy, she was on cloud nine and practically lifeless. Willow took the disk and inserted it into the computer’s CD-ROM.
“It’s a good thing Miss Calender always makes copy of everything, I’m going to make a few more copies though, just in case, better safe than sorry!” Spoke up Willow many hours later, dawn was just breaking. Buffy was happier then she had been for a very, very long time
“It was right in front of our faces the whole time , why didn’t we figure it out before, well at least part of it. GOD !!!” Buffy paced , "But how are we going to get something that means that much to him without him finding out?” Willow asked.
"I haven’t...” Buffy started, “Wait Willow, I’m so STUPID, and again I didn’t think about it, yesterday night I was coming to school when my sense went all funky, I looked around and I found this, it’s ANGEL’s, it’s a major coincidence. It was just a glint of silver that caught my attention, but I went to pick it up and well, you know...” Buffy babbled as she pulled the silver object out of her pocket and handed it to Willow. Willow, let out a low whistle as she studied it.
The back door burst open and a Vampire came in looking really Pissed and really Vamped out.
“I got a message for you, Slayer, I heaved you were giving some of my friends a problem, trying to killing them. I’m here to finish you off. Have any last words?” She grumbled at Buffy, Buffy grabbed Angels ring from Willow and put it back in back her pocket, and in the process brought out a stake.
“Nope no last words, but you may have some. Do you? And have I mention I’m SO scared I’m shaking in my pants!!! Oops sorry, hee hee hee... I’m not wearing any pants! It’s a skirt.” The Vampire didn’t even blink.
“It’s you who needs the last say’s girl... Let's rumble!”
“Is that the best you can do? Stand there like an idiot ... Kick my ass, I dare
you!” Buffy teased.
The Vampire advanced, Buffy lunged at her, her left arm shot out catching the
Vamp under the chin, Buffy whipped around and round housed the Vamp in the
stomach, the Vamp went flying and hit the wall with a sickening crack, but the
Vampire was fast and was once again on her feet. She caught Buffy of guard and
Buffy was air born for a few seconds and landed on Miss Calender’s desk.
“Ouch that really hurt. Now you get it you little piece of trash. I’ll be
bruised for life!” Buffy groaned getting to her feet. Buffy jumped up and drew
an other stake so fast that the Vampire didn’t even see it. Buffy lunged once
again at the Vampire with her left hand at the last minute possible she changed
and the stake in her right hand went cleanly through the Vampire’s heart.
“Angel... He says he loves you..” Where the last words the Vampire muttered
before she turned to dust.
“Doesn’t Angel ever learn to do the dirty work himself?” Buffy muttered shaking
her head.
Buffy looked up at Willow and smiled, “I’m back” she took the ring out of her
pocket again and inspected it. Inside it read: Angel + Buffy 4ever.Love Buffy
was surprised at how direct it was. She placed the ring in the palm of Willows
hand very carefully “I have some calls to make” the Slayer said making her way
towards the Library yet again.
Buffy entered the library thinking all about Angel, of course, she dialled
Giles home number without thinking. She twirled the telephone cord around her
fingers, her blue nail polish stood out.
“Hello” came a groggy voice at the other end of the line “Can I help you??”
“Umm hey Giles, It’s me Buffy you know your one and only Slayer” Buffy spoke
into the phone in a bubbly and giggly fashion.
“Buffy this had better be good, you woke me up from the best dream, I was
talking to Jenny... Ahem... You did wake me up!” Giles answered.
“Sorry Giles. It is good though, Anyway , It is so very good... Giles, I’m so
back in business” Buffy began giggling in the background. “Did you know that
Willow stayed here ALL night?”
“Buffy get to the damn point, I can still get in a good hour of sleep before
school.” Giles spoke with great threat, Buffy then learned, don’t wake up a Mr..
Rupert Giles unless you want to be killed.
“Anyway Willow must have been researching the Angel thing, Anyway...on the disk
I found ... ITHASTHECURSEFORANGELONITANDHOWTO GIVEHIMBACKHISSOUL!!!!!”
“Buffy, Your talking WAY to fast slow down huh?” Giles sounded very
unimpressed.
“Giles..it...had...the...curse...for...angel...on..
..it...And...how...how...to...Give it...back...it...
something...happened..or...something...” Buffy repeated
much more slowly this time, just to get on Giles case. He needed a bit of humor
in his life. Let me rephrase that a lot more humor in his life! Miss Calender
where still there she would make sure of that, but of course
she wasn’t, Angel just had to go and kill her.
“I’ll be right there Buffy, STAY-PUT!!! Ok?” Giles finally had a little
life in his voice, even if it was a little.
“I’ll be in the computer room with Willow Giles, see you there.” With out even
saying good-bye, Buffy hung-up
“Again mindlessly Buffy dialled Xander's phone number, even if he was going to
be jealous, he at least had the right to know . They where after all a group,
they shared absolutely everything, or so Buffy hoped. She certainly did.
“Hello?” A very tiered , waken up female voice answered Xander’s phone.
“Oh my GOD Xander!!! Ahem, I’m calm now, really... Umm guess what Xander. I’m
back I’m SO back...” After along time Buffy managed had to calm herself to the
point where she could actually speak to Xander. She kept on talking.
Very fast hurried steps echoed throughout the empty halls, as Giles made his
way to the computer room. He opened the door, the room was empty.
“Buffy...Willow? You here?” Giles called out, voice rising with every syllable
“Umm sorry Giles... Where’s Buffy? And Willow? Willow too. She... They... Told
me to meet them here.” Xander said this with Cordelia behind him.
“...Umm Xander, Buffy doesn’t seem to be here and we really need to find them
Oh...hello Cordelia. Why you here? Oh never mind we have to go find the girls..”
Giles’ voice was plenty worried in it.
*Somewhere else...
“So Willow you left the disk on Giles’ desk? If you didn’t he’s going to have a
hairy... You know! He needs to figure out where we are going, and
stuff” Buffy asked .
“Yeah, and you got most of your stakes in case we run into even bigger problems
or little inconveniences?”
“Yup, and Willow?... When did you get your drivers licence?” < I thought we
were a group who shared everything, guess I guessed wrong, huh?> Willow
shrunk into her seat as low as safety would permit when driving.
“Truth?...”
“What else?”
“Well I ... Ahem... guess yours and my mom spoke and they decided one of us
needed to drive and Umm... They chose me. Because Ahh... They though I was more
responsible, and after the lessons and stuff, my mom looked into buying me a
car, and here we are. All happy and spacy... right?” Willow looked about to cry.
“My mom said you should? Why not both of us? RESPONSIBILITY? I have
responsibility, more than anyone can imagine! I save the world form monsters and
demons and give up my life on a nightly basis, and they talk about
responsibility?... I’ve died before, and have bounced back, and she talks about
responsibility???”
Buffy seeing her friends face continued “It’s not like I’m mad at you or
anything Willow. I’m just a wee bit upset. I REALLY wanted to learn how to
drive... Hey maybe you could teach me how to drive sometime in the future...
Hum?” She gave Willow a little smile. And in return she saw a tinny one start at
the corner’s on to her friends face, she laughed out loud with Willow joining
her.
*Back at school
“Giles they aren’t here, they are no where to be found. And Umm School is about
to begin, Willow has never been late for school! EVER!!! Well unless she’s sick,
but she’s not! Something’s up here ... and I don’t like it.” Xander was pacing
in the library. A table loomed out in front of him, but he didn’t even see it.
“XANDER... Carefully our going to crash into the table.” The warning came to
late. Xander was already on the floor on top of a bunch of books.
“Oops”
“Xander... Get to class...” Giles was giving Xander the major evil eye, like he
had killed someone... Or something.
