"We've got to get to him! Fast!" Buffy said. She was already putting on her coat and running down the stairs to Willow's front door. "Do we get Giles?!" Buffy calle behind her as she ran opened the front door.

Im gonna die Xander thought panicing as the huge bug women dragged him from the cage. Her beady eyes looked down at Xander he felt sweat drip down his forehead. In the nick of time Buffy kicked the door down and flew down the stairs kicking the mantis lady in between the eyes.
"Xander" Willow shouted rushing to his aid.
"Im okay Will really , apart from the whole i almost mated with a BUG!" Xander moaned
Buffy swung the sword she had in her left arm and cut the creatures head clean off.
"Thanks Buff" Xander said greatfully

(I thought I might interject every now and then with some Giles-isms, until someone else wants to play him)
Giles stood behind the check-out desk in the school library cleaning his glasses and waiting for his kettle to boil. His most rebellious act since his Ripper days was sneaking a hot-plate onto school property so he could have a proper cup of tea. It seemed like a lifetime ago that he and his mate Ethan wreaked schoolboy havoc, but now his greatest responsibility is to make sure his slayer is safe. It was his ethical obligation as a watcher to ensure her safety and properly train her for battle. Giles had to admit, once he met Buffy, all traditional forms of slayer-training had to go out the window. After she had run out that first day he showed her the book on Vampyrs, he decided he couldn't give her the Slayer handbook. It would do little good anyway for a girl who thinks more with her heart than her head, and Giles was secretly thankful for that. Caught in his reverie, he looked up surprise as Buffy came running into the library wearing a leather jacket too large for her small frame.
"You should've seen it Giles. It was beyond gross. Miss French with her..." Buffy started making bug eyed faces and used her hands make tendril motions.
"Oh dear, that sounds horrific." Giles replied, putting his glasses back on. "And everyone got out safely, I hope?"
Buffy grinned, "Well everyone but Miss French. I left her in bug-sized chunks." Buffy made a face and pretended to gag.
"That's excellent work, Buffy. Now I was wondering if you'd like to get some training in tonight. I thought we might work on some proper staff work," Giles said, heading to his weapons cage.
"Sorry Giles, but gotta bail. Meeting Willow and the gang at the bronze later." Buffy answered, shrugging, and pulling the leather jacket closer to her body. "But tomorrow? At lunch?" she said, backing towards the door.
"Of course." Giles decided his slayer needed a break after all, and inserted his key to relock the weapons cage. "Go on..." he said, looking up.
"...and have fun." But Buffy had already left. He watched the library doors swing for a few moments before he dashed off to answer the whistling kettle.

Angel went to the butchers. He walked up to Ernie his usual blood dealer.
"Ernie" Angel said.
"Hey er Angel we ain't got any of your pigs blood in today" Ernie told him
"Oh well willl you have some tomorrow?" Angel enquired.
"Yeah er sure just drop by and we can work out how much you owe" Ernie chirped.
Angel walked out the door. As he reached the door he heard Ernie wisper to himself. "Vampires man give me the creeps drinking blood yuck"
Angel gave a crooked smile as he left the butchers.

Cordelia decided it was time to start fresh, like with a purpose. It was something she read in one of those self-improvement books. She was in the girls locker room, touching up her lip gloss and telling herself how perfect she looked (let's face it, mirrors don't lie) when she figured it was really about time that things started turning in her favor.
"You look amazing as always Cordy. Is that a new top?"
"Harmony, can you stop kissing my ass long enough to give me some useful advice on how to get Owen to notice me?"
"I don't know why he wouldn't notice you! I mean, you're Cordelia Chase. He would have to be dead to not know how awesome you are... hey did you find out if your dad was able to get those U2 tickets for next week's concert?"
Cordelia wiped the corners of her mouth and admired her glossy lips. "Yeah, he got them. But you're really no help at all Harm," Cordelia replied, rolling her eyes. "It is so hard to find good help these days."

Oz sat at The Bronze, one hand on his drink, the other scratching his ear. He had been dying of boredom the last few days. Everyone seemed really hyped up about some new Biology teacher or something, but Oz hadn't seen her for more than a couple passing moments in thr\e hallways, because he wasn't taking Biology. He took a swig from his cup and glanced around. He wished he were playing tonight, or at least had band practice. Instead he was listening to someone with very little talent screech away into a microphone. "What a waste of an evening." He muttered.

The Master stood calmly in his underground prison. The Anointed One would rise soon, he could almost feel it. The elder vampire simply couldn't wait for his prized disciple to stand by his side. The mere thought of the possibilities The Anointed One held; the knowledge he will gain, it was like a dream come true. The Master knew nightfall would come soon, and preparations had to be made.
"My minions!" The Master declared, "The time is now! Gather around and let me tell you of your mission." The ancient vampire walked smoothly to his throne and picked up a book that looked as old as The Master himself. He slammed the book on the table and quickly found the passage he needed.
The Master recites, "'And there will be a time of crisis, of worlds hanging in the balance. And in this time shall come the Anointed, the Master's great warrior. And the Slayer will not know him, will not stop him, and he will lead her into hell. As it is written, so it shall be." The Master rises and walks down the steps, book in hand, "Five will die, and from their ashes the Anointed One shall rise. The Brethren of Aurelius shall greet him and usher him to his immortal destiny." The Master looks squarely at one of his disciples, "'As it is written, so shall it be..."
"'...And one of the brethren shall go out hunting the night before and get himself killed because he couldn't wait to finish his job before he ate'...Oh wait." The Master suddenly grabs a vampire by the throat, raising him in the air. "Thats not written anywhere. The Annoited will be my greatest weapon against the Slayer. If you fail to bring him to me. If you allow that girl to stop you..." The Master throws his victim 10 feet in the air, the vamp falling on a coffin with a resounding thud, "...Here endeth the lesson."
The Master walks away from his shocked minions. He is most positive they have understood his warning quite clear. That damned Slayer had meddled far too long in his plans already. If there was only one plan of his that would go right (and, of course, The Master's plans will always go right), it would be tonight. The Master closed his eyes, spreading his awareness to the world above ground. He felt the night take over the land, its darkened tendrils creeping over everything in sight. The time had come. The Master was ready.
{The problem with me joining in was that I didn't know what episode it was, now I know exactly where we are so I'm excited to keep this up! ;D }

(Courtney were on Never Kill A Boy On The First Date)
Giles was giving Buffy another boring lecture. She was twiddling her thumbs and answered his question correctley for once.
"Ooo, two points for the Slayer, while the Watcher has yet to score!"
"Well erm yes but.." Giles said he didn't like being incorrect.
The library doors opened and Owen walked in , he pondered around.
"Do you have any Emily Dickinson?" he asked Giles.
"Back row" Giles replied
"Now he's cute im gonna go make with the conversation" Buffy smiled
Buffy messed with her hair as she walked up to Owen.
"What you doing?" She asked him
"Looking for Emily Dickinson books she's my favourite" Owen smiled politley
"Me too i love books" Buffy smiled back
Giles snorted at the remark of Buffy liking books.
"Really?" Owen said suprized "You don't seem too bookwormy"
"Well i certainly am , i can't get enough of the old writing on paper....cause books....and you know thats what books are" Buffy waffled on.
"Maybe i'll see you around?" Owen said shyly
"Okay" Buffy waved to him as he left the library she swung round to Giles
"Giles you have to get me a copy of Emily whats her name" She pleaded
"Dickinson , and i'll see if i have a copy floating around" Giles corrected her.

When Willow sees Buffy in the hallway, she's really excited to hear about Owen's attentions toward her. "Owen? He was talking to you?" she asks in reply, the shock completely evident in her face. Buffy nods happily. "He's so mysterious and he doesn't talk to anybody. Lots of girls like him," she gushes to Buffy. "He can brood for forty minutes straight. I've clocked him," she adds just for humor's sake. She asks Buffy what they talked about and, at first, romanticizes the moment in her head until her eyebrows furrow curiously. "But you haven't read Emily Dickinson." Buffy grins and slips a book out of her bag. Her and Willow nearly squeal. "You vixen!" she exclaims to Buffy. Seems like I came back at just the right time.

Owen walked down the hall
"How do i look?" She asked Willow fluffing her hair
"Amazing as always" Willow smiled back
Buffy strolled towards Owen carrying her Emily Dickinson book Owen wasn't looking and knocked into her Buffy dropped her book and smiled to herself.
"Im so sorry im such a klutz" Owen said shyly he looked up and saw it was Buffy
"Oh Buffy Hi , So you do read Emily Dickinson" He giggled.
"Yep like i said bookwormy" She laughed back.
"So im going to The Bronze tonight and thought you might want to come?"
"I love The Bronze , and i'd love to come" Buffy grinned , she was pleased her plan worked
"Great , so i'll get your number and call you later" Buffy said.
After they exchanged numbers Buffy ran back to Willow
"Sooooooo" Willow asked impatiently
Buffy pulled out the piece of paper with Owens number on it and let out a little squeal She grabbed Willows hand and did a little dance.
"See Willow its all about finding a common interest you should try it with Xander there is no way he could resist the charms of Willow" Buffy grinned
"Common interest thanks Buff i'll try it" Willow grinned back
Buffy walked to the library tossing the book on the table.
"Not into reading after all then?" Giles mocked
"No but the book got me a date" Buffy teased back
"A date , Buffy your the slayer you should be focussing on your slayer duties not off with some teenage boy who's going to have teenage urges" Giles moaned rubbing his glasses
"Slow down i know about the birds and the bee's besides its only a coffee tonight at The Bronze" Buffy told him
"Tonight.... you can't a dark evil is going to rise up and you have to be there to stop it!"
"But.."
"Not but's Buffy your awaiting at the graveyard with me for the evil to rise then your going to stop it" Giles told her firmly
Buffy kicked the floor and walked out the library mumbling to herself. "Stupid watcher" She mocked his English accent "Oh Buffy theres evil do this do that"
"And don't be late!" Giles added.

The graveyard was dead , a thin mist clouded the air. Buffy repeatedly tapped her stake against her leg whilst taking a big gulp out of her slushie.
"Must you make that noise" Giles said irritatedly
"Its a slushie it's the only noise you can make" Buffy teased
They waited in the graveyard for another 1hr and half Buffy was bored to death.
"Giles can i go...... im late for my date" Buffy said batting her eyelids
"But the evil!" Giles protested
"Isn't coming tonight....." Buffy replied.
"Well fine , but if i die of unspeakable evil it's on your head" Giles called out to Buffy as she walked off.
"Yeah Yeah" She said to herself.

Willow and Xander go to Buffy's house to help her get ready for her date. Well, that's why Willow went. She also knows that Xander went to play any part he could in sabotaging said date. Even this made her smile. She realized that she was in trouble when no matter what he did, even if was probably bad for her, was cute or loveable. Buffy holds up two dresses, trying to determine between the reserved type that one might think Owen would like and the more aggressive type. Perhaps he's attracted to opposites, Willow knew Buffy was thinking. There is something refreshing to her about the fact that even someone as good with people and as popular as Buffy had to worry about things like that. It makes her love Buffy more when she sees the parts of her that aren't always strong or don't always know what to do. It also makes her more admirable to Willow.

Buffy was running late.
"Buffy i'll escort you to the bronze" Xander smiled
"Xander....if i go with you Owen will think im with you" Buffy explained
"It's true , maybe we could go?" Willow suggested
"Okay but were keeping a eye a close eye!" Xander informed
Buffy laughed at Xanders over-protective act. All three of them walked to The Bronze , Buffy paked a stake in her bag just incase. She fluffed her hair then turned to them both.
"How do i look?" She asked worried she wouldn't impress Owen
"Like a godess" Xander said trying to kiss up to her
"Owens gonna love it Buff" Willow said with a gentle smile
Buffy walked into The Bronze and scanned around , she spotted Owen only he walked alone he was with Cordelia , her faced dropped. Who was she kidding why would Owen want anything to do with her it'd be too much to ask to have one tiny date. Buffy turned around to leave when Owen ran up to her.
"Buffy , i thought you wasn't gonna show" he said nervously
"Oh...i was , but your with Cordelia?" Buffy said confused
"No she came over to me , i wasn't interested" Owen replied.
"Oh" Buffys face lit up

Joyce is stuck working late at the gallery tonight. She and a co-worker, Carol, are busy going through inventory for an upcoming show. Joyce glances at her watch, realizes the late hour, and with a sigh hopes that she will be finished soon. Well, at least for tonight anyway. As Joyce busies herself with the inventory, her thoughts turn to home. She remembered that Buffy had mentioned something about going out on a date tonight with a boy from school. Had Buffy said they were going to The Bronze? Joyce was glad that her daughter seemed to be making friends so quickly, she just hoped that Buffy behaved herself and stayed out of trouble. If there was one thing that Joyce Summers knew well, it was that trouble seemed to have an uncanny ability to find her daughter...Joyce looked at the clock on the wall and with a sigh turned back to the list she held in her hand. She was glad, at least, to have Carol there with her. It made Joyce feel uneasy, to be alone in the gallery at night...

Buffy was glad Owen wasn't interested in Cordy he was about the only guy that wasn't.
"So would you like to get a coffee?" He asked
"Coffees good" She replied with a smile
Xander and Willow sat at their usual table. "I don't like it" he said with a sneer "Don't like what?" Willow asked watching Buffy having a great time. "That" Xander pointed at Owen
"He's turning on the charm trying to seduce her"
"Im sure he's just being polite" Willow said taking no notice
"Hi Buffy, i read, and im beyond handsome lets go on a date" Xander mocked Owen.
Willows phone started ringing.
"Hello...Oh Giles...Buffy? Date? no she's urm sick...Me & Xander will come...Ok Bye"
Willow grabbed Xander and lead him out of The Bronze.
"You look lovley" Owen said shyly
"Thanks" Buffy said gazing at him. He didn't talk much but neither did Angel. Stop thinking about Angel your'e here with Owen she told herself firmly.
Angel walked into The Bronze he walked upstairs out of Buffys sight. He looked down at her Who was she with? He felt hurt but told himself his job was to help her not love her. Although he couldn't help it. A few girls stared at him. Angel listened in on thier conversation.
"He's the guy who rejected Dana and Tiffany"
"Bet he wouldn't reject me"
"Whatever Harmony like you have a shot, didn't he shoot you down before too?"
"No... i told him i wasn't interested"
Angel zoned out and focused on Buffy. "That guys no good for her" he sulked.

Cordelia couldn't believe she was being shot down yet again by a boy in favor of Buffy.
"It's so nice of you to take care of the needy" Cordelia said to Owen, putting her hand on his shoulder, after he told her he was there with Buffy.
She flipped her hair and walked off to the Cordettes. "You guys, that's it. I'm going to go celibate," upset that the evening was not turning out as she hoped.
"Is that a new diet or something, Cordy?" Harmony asked eagerly.
"God Harmony, try to keep up." Cordelia mumbled.
A group of freshman boys were ogling her from the side of the stage. "Oh god, look at those guys. Like I'd ever give them the time of day." Her friends laughed, and they dissected their hideous outfits. This cheered up Cordy immensely.

Giles tells Buffy about the anointed one rising and her sacred duty. Willow watches as Buffy ignores him. She wanted to be young. She wanted to find Owen and dress up and flirt. What's a sixteen year old girl supposed to be doing in a graveyard with the living dead? That's what Willow knows Buffy was thinking and she sympathizes with her. Willow also senses Giles' pain. He needs Buffy and he can't help but be frustrated by her lack of concentration. Willow hates the torn loyalties. Why did that happen so much? she thinks. Why do my friends have such conflicting interests for me to try to juggle? I make such a mess of it.

"I'll be at the funeral home. Just in case." Giles said to Willow and Xander.
Giles packed a small bag of weapons and headed out to his car. On the drive to the Sunnydale Funeral Home, his transmission shook, although perhaps he was imagining it, as his hands were shaking as well, and leaving his steering wheel clammy.
I wish Buffy would take this more seriously, he thought. He wish there was someway to make her understand the calamity of the situation. Should the master free himself, Sunnydale will be his feeding ground. The town will nothing but a dumping ground for carcasses. And all Buffy cares about is getting her hair all pretty for her date! Not that he blamed her, no. He couldn't. Giles knows it's too much to expect from a sixteen year old girl, but Buffy's not any girl. She's the slayer. And the sooner she realizes this, the sooner we'll all be safer.

Willow doesn't like what she hears. Giles is going, alone, to where some all important vampire is being raised?
"We should go along" Willow tells Xander, who is standing right next to her, looking towards the door that Buffy just went out of.
"Yeah, you're right. I don't trust that Owen guy!"
Willow sighs disgustedly at Xander, "No, we should go with Giles!"

Giles easily jimmied opened the door to the funeral home and was greeted with the smell of stale, clinical death. They do such a poor job keeping bodies here . "Most likely because 80% of the dead don't make it into the ground." He said aloud. He scans his flashlight looking for clues, but sees nothing useful, that is until...
...his flashlight is pointed directly into the yellow glowing eyes of a vampire.
"Oh dear lord." Giles silently prays, and whips out a wooden cross. The vampire hisses, but does not back down. He looks desperately for a place to run, when he spots another vampire behind him. Not a moment to lose, Giles makes a mad dash down one of the hallways, his heart beating into his throat as he hears the the footsteps approaching.
"I smell fear..." the large one taunts, as Giles tries each of the doors trying to get them to open. Finally the one marked "Morgue" swings agape and he runs inside, and looks around to find something heavy to block the door.
Where is Buffy? He shouted in his head, trying to keep his wits about him.
