Willow picks up the piece of paper lying on her friend's bed. A note. She passes it to Xander, who reads it out loud.
"Sorry Mom, Dad, everyone. I thought about this, and I realised that I can't cope with college. So I ran away. Please don't come after me, you won't find me, and if you do, I'll deny knowing you. Please remember I love you all."
Suppressing a laugh, Xander passes the note to their blonde leader. Smiling, she tears it into pieces. "I think we're gonna need a new version." She sits down and starts to write. In a short while, she finishes and reads the new version.
" Dear everyone. By the time you read this I'll be dead. I've decided to kill myself. I've felt so distant from you all recently, and college is just too hard for me. So I'm going down to the harbour, and you will never see me again."
Willow nods. "This'll explain the lack of a body."
Pointing to the pile of dust, Xander sighs "It's just a shame we had to lose him."
The blonde smiles. "Any feelings I had for him, I'll have to get over, but I'm moving on."
The trio walk out into the night. Suddenly Giles runs up to them. "Is it over?"
"Well over, G-Man. But the fun is just beginning."
Xander and Willow reveal their true faces. Giles backs away, scared and confused. "You're...you're vampires? But then, that isn't Buffy?"
The blonde smiled. "Got it in one, old man. Kill him."
"Whatever you say Sunday." Willow and Xander close in on the former Watcher. Sunday only stands and observes. *Slayer and Watcher in one night, AND two new lackeys? Rookie's death means nothing!*
