Amy walks through the crowded corridor. She sees a new girl drop the items from her bag. She goes to helper but by the time she is half way there Xander is talking to her. Amy decideds to turn the other way and head for lunch. She thought to herself "this is going to be another horrific year an Sunnydale High".

As Buffy walked away from the guy named Xander, she felt a little odd. He seemed nice enough, but a little creepy. she could have sworn he'd asked 'can i have you' before stooping to help her.
When the bell finally rang for lunch, Willow went out to the bench where she, Jesse and Xander usually sat. She was cursing Cordelia's name, and how she'd made a fool out of her in the hall. She was used to it, but it still bothered her sometimes.

ooc// Please put this before JW's post lol
bic//Xander in a rush to get to school early so that he could ask Willow for math help... he barely pulled a D last semester... he rode his skateboard down the very crowded sidewalk, generously attempting not to kill anyone during the process. Just as he was about to get off the skate board and run up the stairs he sees a beautiful face he's never seen before.
In a matter of seconds he thought: Huh, that's odd. I know everyone here at Sunnydale High. She must be new. God, she's pretty. I wonder what's her story--
>crash<
Xander woke to find himself underneath the stair banister he'd just smashed into. Ow, that hurt he thought. Just as he was about to get himself to his feet, Willow entered his vision. Oh thank god, I'm not too late.
"Willow, I'm so glad I bumped into you. Well, not literally. Anyway- could you help me with my math homework?"
Willow said she'd help him. He thought: She's so good to me. I should do something to repay her. More than a shiny nickle. Oh! There's Jesse! Maybe he has some insider knowledge about the new girl.
Coming away with no new knowledge about the new girl from Jesse, he made his way to the library to get "Theories of Trigonometry" recommended by Willow, and then headed for his first class.
He hears a clattering behind him, turns, and sees the new girl dropping her bag all over the floor.
Damsel in distress. Must help. She sure is beautiful... boy I'd like to... wait - Must Help First.
"Can I have you?"
Tripping over his tongue, he made small talk to the beautiful new girl. Her name is Buffy. How odd. As she walked away, he berated himself for sounding so ridiculous. He noticed a wooden stake on the floor, that must belong to Buffy. Too late to actually give it to her, he decided to confront her on the absolute weirdness that is the new girl who carries a stake to school.
ooc// how was that? I have no idea, should I go into so much detail from the show? Just adding internal dialogue? Or should I go off the beaten path and add things that didn't happen on screen?

ooc// I will post a summary of the story when page 5 starts. Just so everyone knows.
bic// Joyce was sitting at the dining table with a cup of hot coffee and a newspaper. Armed with a red marker she excitedly circled commercial buildings for sale that took her fancy. She was trying to find a space for her new gallery. She had always had a passion for art and wanted to have a gallery of her own. One of the great things about moving to sunnydale was that she could give it a go.
As she read her thoughts subconsciously turned to Buffy. 'I wonder how things are going for her, first day, new school. Hopefully a good crowd to step into...'. Joyce looked forward to Buffy getting home, she'd love their new start to include some mother-daughter bonding and perhaps a little more honesty from Buffy's half. When Buffy got home, she would sit down and have a relaxed conversation with her. Joyce looked at the clock and her heart smiled with excitement and joy for the things to come.
Ooooh!. Joyce's eyes lit up as she read through the desciption of an empty loft-type space in the good part of town. Before she'd even circled it she had the phone in hand and was dialling the number.

ooc// @rebecca: any of those is fine. we don't want to follow the exact script, but we want the same basic stuff to happen. your last post was just fine, and internal dialogue is great. it's good to know what every character is thinking.
bic// Jesse fiddled with his locker a few minutes after the lunch bell rang. last semester's combination was easy. 21-3-14. But now he had a new locker, and kept entering the wrong combination. After A few minutes he got it, wrenched open his locker and pulled out his scrunched paper lunch bag. He went outside into the courtyard to find Willow chatting with the new girl he jumped over the low wall behind them. "Hey."
Buffy jumped. "Hey." She said back. She didn't know this kid, and to be honest, he looked like a bit of a loser, but he seemed nice enough. "I'm Buffy."
"Jesse." Jesse said.

Giles sat behind his desk, cleaning his glasses and thinking back with unease to his first meeting with the Slayer. Had he come on a little strong? He had been informed of her previous activities in Los Angeles but the Watcher's Council had said nothing of a dismissive attitude toward her calling. She is the Slayer - the only girl in all the world capable of the task set before her. Her reaction to the book of vampire lore had been to bolt from the library in fear. This would take some work, but he must talk to her again, soon.
The mystical activity in Sunnydale seemed much greater than the Council had warned and an active (and willing) Slayer was clearly needed now.

Probably leave a note at the end of your post, stating who should write next or something like that. As for me, I'm gonna wait a while before jumping in with the Master again, as I think my last post here was a little out of place :unsure:

Johnathan painstakingly wiped his locker clean, someone had apparently thought that it would be hilarious to shove chocolate pudding through the vent in the door. He muttered bitterly to himself as he wiped a large sploge off his history folder. "Bullies" he moaned. He was often amazed at how much thought they put into bullying him. He would never fit in. He was pretty sure of that. As he slammed the locker shut he saw a group of people making their way to the cafeteria, Xander Harris, Willow Rosenberg, a tall guy whos name he couldn't remember and a blond girl. She had to be new, he had never seen her before. As he hitched his backpack onto his shoulder he watched them with a look of longing. Harris and Rosenberg weren't exactly social butterflys but even they managed not to be complete outcasts. Perhaps he should try talking to the new girl, she looked like she could happily be initiated into the cordettes but she was hanging with those guys so she must be different, like them. He could stroll in and strike up a conversation. He could be a member of their group. Couldn't he? "Damn it" he mumbled, if only he had a little more confidence. She was probably really boring anyway. They all were. "I bet I would be bored to death" he thought. He needed more intelectual friends he decided. He flopped into a chair at an empty table and began to unpack his lunch. He couldn't eat the schools food, the lunchlady gave him the creeps. Just then a blond boy wearing an oversized star wars t-shirt sat down and began to unpack his matching lunch box. Johnathan sighed, looking once more towards the group laughing and joking. "I wish they'd let me in" he thought. "Hey", said the blond boy "wanna play Kevin Bacon?" Johnathan rolled his eyes "What a nerd" he thought. "Okay" he said, this was going to be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
ooc// I hope this was okay, was including Andrew okay, if not let me know.

ooc// it is very good!
bic// Willow was debating between eating her sandwich or apple first when there was a loud clack of expensive heels on the stone of the courtyard. She looked up. IT was Cordelia. How perfect. Jesse's head snapped up so fast Willow could have sworn she heard his neck crick. Willow toned out most of what Cordelia was saying, like she always did, until she head something about a dead guy. She looked up in time to catch Buffy asking about how he died. Willow personally didn't think it mattered much. People died all the time in Sunnydale, but even a guy stuffed in a locker was a little too weird. It wigged her out a little bit, but since every person she really cared about was sitting next to her, save form Cordelia and the new girl, sit didn't really scare her that someone she'd never met was dead.

ooc// Yay thanks so mcuh, Im starting now 3rd person bic// "I don’t want to interrupt your downward mobility. I just thought I’d let you know that you that you won’t be meeting Coach Foster, the woman with chest hair, because gym has been canceled due to the extreme dead guy in the locker!" Cordelia waved her hand to her side a little bit for emphasis, though she didn't really care about the dead guy. The being-stuffed-in-a-locker thing was creeping her out a bit though. She'd never admit it, but Cordelia had never been okay with all the strange dissaperences and frequent deaths that occured in sunnydale. Her reputation for only caring about herself was fragile and although she had all the 'somebodys' in sunnydale practically kissing her feet, she felt incredibly alone. She knew they were all just yes-men.... or women. Buffy was getting on her nerves a bit though, she was pretty enough to be seen with cordelia but not now that she had chosen to communicate with those nerds. Whatever! ooc// i hope that was okay It was my first post and I dont really know the rules, please tell me if it was bad

ooc// it was very good. we try to avoid taking exact lines form the script, but it's fine here and there, so your post was great.
bic// "Dead?" Buffy said, leaping to her feet, turning white. not here, not here! i came to Sunny-dull to get away form that stuff!
Jesse eyes Cordelia and bobbed his eyebrows up and down a little. "So...uhh. Cordelia." Just her name felt good in his mouth. "You going to the Bronze tonight?"
"God, Jesse!" Willow hit his arm. "Someone is dead, and you're looking for a date tonight? Prioritize much?" She frowned at him. It was her classic scowly face, and even though she meant it, she knew that she just looked cute. Xander always told her that when she was angry with him. That she was too cute to look grumpy. But, as always, he meant 'cute' in a friend way. No prefix 'girl' for me there. Just friend.

ooc// Ooo, could I also be Dawn if it's okay? I know she's a little while away but she gets cool and I like her bic// "Oh, please." Cordelia moved her arm to put a barrier between her and Jesse. What a freak, she sniffed a little, uuhg - smelly freak. "Yea, dead! What, you think he just stuffed himself in there for a little snooze?" Cordelia looked at Buffy who appeared to have phased completely out of the conversation. Cordelia was about to turn and leave, still with her eyes on Buffy, when she stood quickly. "Uh, I gotta book, I see you's later." Buffy slid past Cordelia, her boots were clanking loudly as she half ran-half walked around the corner and out of site. Cordelia watched her leave, "Whats her deal??" She turned back around to see Willow, Jesse and Xander looking at her. I need to leave now and begin thinking before I speak to just anyone. Ugh! Cordelia walked away loudly stomping her feet into the ground.
