BUFFY
Thanks for coming
with tonight, I really appreciate it
XANDER
No problem little lady
I'm always willing to put
my life on the line to save
an apocolypse
BUFFY
Relax Xand, There
will probably only be
two or three
XANDER
(RELIEVED) Oh thank god
... I mean with the asscencion
coming up I wouldn't wanna miss that
On second thoughts maybe I do
maybe I should stray from the
pack, maybe I should go before
the going gets tough
WILLOW AND BUFFY STARE DISAPPROVINGLY
XANDER
Or maybe I should just
shut up
OZ
I'd go with that
WILLOW
(TO BUFFY)
You shouldn't be out tonight
you aren't a hundred percent
BUFFY
But I'm not zero percent
WILLOW
If you don't rest you will be.
With graduation coming up
you should be resting up, cos if
you feel like this when we graduate
BUFFY
I know, world endage..
but I need to keep up my
strength
WILLOW
And you aren't doing that by
slaying vampires while sick
XANDER
Yeah, remember last time
you got sick, the whole invisible
death shenanigans
OZ
Shenanigans?
XANDER
Felt like a time to say it...
Look what I mean is
we can't be without you this
time, not with Faith on the loose
BUFFY
I don't know maybe your ri...
A VAMPIRE CUTS IN
VAMPIRE

THE VAMPIRE GROWLS AND GOES FOR BUFFY WHO QUICKLY KICKS HIM
HE LEAPS BACK UP AND KNOCKS BUFFY TO THE GROUND. SHE DOESN'T GET BACK UP
VAMPIRE
I beat the slayer!
I must be the strongest
vampire there ever w..
FROM BEHIND OZ STAKES HIM
VAMPIRE
Damn..
HE FADES TO DUST. BUFFY IS STILL ON THE GROUND. XANDER WILLOW AND OZ GO TO HER
BUFFY
(DAZED)
Hey Willow, what are you doing
up there?
WILLOW
We need to get her home
BUFFY
Home is where the heart is
SHE CLOESES HER EYES AND BLACKS OUT
XANDER
Oh this is so not good
FADE OUT

INT. DOCTORS OFFICE. NIGHT
BUFFY IS HAVING A LIGHT SHONE IN HER EYE BY A DOCTOR.
JOYCE
How is she doctor
DOCTOR
Oh she'll be fine
hospital won't be necessary
but rest will or else more symptoms
could develop
BUFFY
(WORRIED)
Rest?... How long
DOCTOR
Oh I'd give it a minimum of
a week, maybe more
BUFFY
More.. whats the maximum
DOCTOR
Probably two weeks
So school is off to Miss Summers
I'm just going to go fetch some
medication for you..
THE DOCTOR LEAVES AND THE CAMERA FOLLOWS HIM. OUTSIDE ARE XANDER WILLOW AND GILES
GILES
Excuse me doctor
how is she?
DOCTOR
Oh she'll be fine
she needs about two
weeks rest
GILES
Two.. weeks
DOCTOR
Yes thats right
will you excuse me
GILES
Certainly
(TO WILLOW)
Does Angel know
WILLOW
Oz said he would go
get him
XANDER
Thats the problem of being
a vampire with a soul,
no network support
WILLOW
(TO GILES) What are
we gonna do with no slayer
for two weeks
GILES
Well I'm not sure at the
moment, this is a vital time
the Hellmouth has been acting up
XANDER
Because of the asscension
GILES
Exactly, Demons are coming out
in force right now
WILLOW
And we have no one
to stop it
GILES
Exactly. We used to have
Faith around but..
XANDER
A case of the evils
sent her packing
WILLOW
(COMING UP WITH IDEA)
Ooh we could use Angel
GILES
Good Idea
XANDER
Except our boy
isn't at full strength
WILLOW
Well its better than us
GILES
It is for now, I'll consult
my books and see if there
is anything we can do about this
OZ ENTERS WITH ANGEL
