"What did you get on the pizzas?"
"One of the pizzas has Tomatoes, mushroom, green peppers, feta cheese and red peppers and the other pizza is a meat lover."
"Yell at me when the pizza get here."
"I will Buffy."
Mrs. Summers heads back downstairs and walks into the kitchen. She then goes back to unpacking the kitchen boxes. At the same time Buffy is hanging up a short black mini skirt in her closet.
The sun has just start to go down and there is one Sunnydale residence outside walking down a street in downtown Sunnydale and her named Catalina Victoria Reducan who has dark-brown hair that just above her breasts in length and has roundish almond shape eyes and her eyes are brown.

Catalina takes her keys out of the front pocket of her blue gym bag and then open up the front door of the row house. She heads inside of the house and stop inside the entry hall of the house. Catalina then looks around the street because she has the feeling of being watch and despite not seen anyone she knows that the vampire with a soul that calls himself Angel is watching her, because he has been watching her all summer. Catalina close the front door of the house and then locks the door, she walks over to the wooden staircase that is up against the left-hand wall and is across from the front door. Catalina set her duffel bag and gym bag down on the floor in front of the staircase, then walks over to the first doorway on the right-hand side if your back is to the front door. She then looks through the doorway into the parlour (living room) and looks at the fireplace that is on the center of the wall across from the doorway and start staring at the very old wooden mantle that is walnut, which matching the hard wood floors that are in every room of the house, but the bathroom upstairs, which has marble floor.

In the center of the wood above the top of sofa and blow the seats in the center are some carved roses and the sofa is in front of the fireplace. Beside each arm of the sofa is an armchair from the same time period that matches the sofa. The armchairs are facing each other, but there is no tv in the parlour.

Catalina then walks to the end of the hallway and goes up to the doorway of the kitchen. She looks at the white refrigerator that is up against the right-hand wall if standing in the kitchen doorway and is happy that her grandfather Reducan empty out the refrigerator and freezer before they left for the summer Olympic games. She looks at the walnut upper cabinets and the walnut lower cabinets that have black granite counter tops and start after the refrigerator. The cabinets wrap around the corner of the back wall of the house for a foot. Then there is the Gold Medal Glenwood Combination Antique Cook Stove, which still works and all the wood burning parts have been convected to gas. The stove has eight burners, and there are two ovens. One of the ovens is eighteen inches times eleven inches high and eighteen inches deep, the other oven is eight inches deep times twelve inches high and eighteen inches deep and a broiler that is thirteen inches wide times fourteen inches deep and nine inches high. The overall dimension of the stove and ovens is forty-two inches wide times thirty-two inches deep times thirty-two inches high to the top of the cook surface times sixty-four inches to the very top of the stove and the stove is up against the wall across from the kitchen doorway. The back door is on the left-hand side of the stove if standing in the kitchen doorway. In the center of the kitchen is a walnut island with a black granite counter top, Catalina starts to cry as she looks around the kitchen thinking of the last breakfast she ate in the kitchen, which is when her grandfather cook pancake for her and him the morning the two of them were leaving for Atlanta, Georgia, Catalina's grandfather who was also her gymnastic coach pass away a few days later in Atlanta, Georgia.
Catalina walks away from the kitchen and walks over to the staircase. Catalina grabs her bags off the floor, then starts walking up the stairs and a minute later she steps onto the landing of the second floor. Catalina looks through the door that across from the staircase that lead into the small guests' bedroom that has peach colored walls. Catalina then turns to her right, so her back is to the first bedroom and then walks down the hallway past the bathroom that has white marble floors, white subway tiles on all the bathroom walls with lines of thin black subway tiles around the center of all the walls to form a break between the white subway tiles that cover from the top to bottom. The white cast-iron clawfoot bathtub with a shower kit is up against the right-hand wall if standing in the bathroom door and the white round cast iron wall mount pedestal sink and the white Victorian toilet is on the wall across from the bathtub, the sink is on the left-hand side and the toilet is on the right if your back is to the bathtub.
Catalina walks down the hallway, which all of the walls on the first floor and hallway of the second floor are light gold, in the kitchen there are white subway tiles on the walls between the upper and lower cabinets. Catalina walks up to the door of her bedroom that is across from the staircase and looks at the door that lead into her grandfathers' bedroom that is at the end of the hallway. But Catalina turns and walks into her bedroom, which has lavender walls. The closet is on the far right-hand wall if standing in the bedroom door, Catalina set her bags down on the floor at the foot of her white cast-iron full sized bed footboard and the headboard of the bed is up against the center of the wall across from her bedroom door, on the headboard and footboard there are roses. Catalina unzips her duffel bag and start unpacking her clothing, underwear, sport bra, bra and leotards that were washed at a laundry mat yesterday and is thinking I wonder how far behind I have got in school since I missed the first two weeks of school.
At the same time Xander Harris is in his bedroom, which has light-blue walls. He has all ready change into a pair of red pajama pants and a red short sleeved shirt and he is laying on his bed with his eyes closed, but has not gone to sleep yet. Mrs. Harris knocks on her sons' bedroom door.
"Willow is on the phone."
"Tell her that I have Ah-choo went to bed."
"You are supposed to be study Algebra two over at Willow's house and it is too early for you to go to bed Xander, get up and talk to Willow."
"I do not feel well and I have a headache and I'm tired just tell Willow that I went to bed Ah-choo."
"Fine but if you are not running a fever in the morning you will be going to school."
"Sniffling whatever mom."
Xander hears his mom walk away from his bedroom door and roll onto his left side and close his eyes, a few moments later he falls to sleep.
Meanwhile, Rupert Giles is at Sunnydale High School Library and he is wearing a gray tweed suit, a black vest, a white dress shirt that is under the vest and the suit jacket and a gray tie. Rupert Giles is busy stacking the library shelves to get the library opening seeing that it is going on the third week of school and the library was closed the first two weeks of the school year. Rupert Giles knows it is going to be a long night getting the school library ready, but he is ok with it seeing that he is not able to put any of his personal books away at the home library of the Georgian house that was built in 1714 and that he is renting from Catalina Victoria Reducan because she has not been able to pack up her family book collect yet, which are the only items she is taking out of the house. Catalina is letting Rupert Giles use all of the furniture and the plates, bowls, spoon, et cetera so he did not have to bring them over from England.
A few hours later Xander is awake and sitting up in bed blowing his nose into a tissue, because his nose will not stop running and he is thinking I hope that I am not getting sick. At the same time Buffy, Willow and Catalina have gone to bed, Willow is having a dream about her and Xander being on a date at the movies. But Buffy and Catalina are having a nightmare, both of them are dreaming about walking through a dark and wet cave together and the two of them are both wearing all black. The two teenage girls that are both vampire slayers are not sure why they are in the cave because neither one of them wants anything to deal with slay vampires nor killing demons. Catalina and Buffy see a teenage boy from school named Jesse chain to the cave floor and run over to him.
Then the two of them are no longer in the cave but are standing in Sunnydale Cemetery looking at two open and empty graves. The slayers look at each other and then hear someone come up behind them. Buffy and Catalina turns around to see an ancient and powerful vampire who is in full vampire face and the male vampire is pale then the everyday vampire that the slayers face. The slayers also see a younger blonde hair and hazel eye female vampire that is not in vampire face and who is named Darla, is with the Master. The master walks toward Buffy and Darla walks toward Catalina. Catalina does a roundhouse kick that sent Darla flying through the cemetery and at the same time Buffy does a roundhouse kick, but the master grab Buffy leg and throws Buffy across the cemetery. The nightmare goes on all night for the two slayers, which mean the two girls do not get a good night sleep. Xander spent most of the night up blowing his nose and he only gets a few hours sleep.
Catalina's alarm clock goes off at six o'clock in the morning and she gets up right away. Catalina looks down at her clothing and sees that she had gone to sleep wearing the T-shirt and workout pants that she was wearing when she got home last night. She walks over to her dresser that is up against the wall on the right-hand side of the bedroom door and is across from her bed. Catalina open up the top drawer on the left side of the dresser and grab a pair of underwear out of the drawer. Catalina's close the drawer and then open up the top drawer on the right-hand side of the dresser and grabs a pair of socks, a sport bra and a bra out of the dresser drawer. A few moments later Catalina throws the socks, sport bra, bra, underwear, a lite blue jean skirt, a red wide strap tank top with a squared neckline and a red velvet long sleeved leotard with gold stars onto her bed.
Buffy is still asleep and is tossing and turning in her sleep and Catalina is still dreaming. In the dream she and Catalina are back in the cave walking toward the boy that is chain to the floor of the cave. A few minutes later Buffy has starts to dream about Catalina and sees Catalina kneel on the ground beside an elder male that is laying on the ground hold his chest. The man is six feet tall, with gray thinning hair and brown eyes and he looks a lot like Catalina and Catalina is on her large gray flip cellphone. In addition there is a pale guy that is dress in all black and who has dark brown hair. He is fighting a blonde female vampire that is in full vampire face and it is the same female vampire from early in the dream when the two slayers were in Sunnydale Cemetery.
"Angelus's why are you fighting me? You are supposed to be on my side, not the human side?"
"I go by Angel now, Darla and I have been on the human side since 1898 in Borsa, Romaina when the Kalderash cursed me by restoring my human soul, which give me a conscience and condemning me to an eternity of remorse for the crimes I committed when I was soulless. I have not been able to kill a human since then without feeling remorse for what I have done. Now I only killed vampires without soul and demons and only drink pig blood."
Darla knows that Angel is not saying this for her, but for the young slayer and the elder man laying on the ground. Darla throws a punch at Angel and Angel blocks the punch, then Angel and Darla hear an ambulance coming. Darla runs away from Angel and he watches her for a few moments and once she is out of sight Angel walks over to Catalina and Mr. Reducan. Angel looks down at Mr. Reducan and can tell he is in really bad shape and then he looks at Catalina and notices that the young slayer is very worried about her grandfather. At the same time Catalina flip the cellphone closed and looks up at Angel with a mix look of hatred and confuse on her face.
"Thank you for fighting that vampire and allow me to call nine-one-one for my grandfather who is having a heart attack."
"You are welcome and I know that you do not know what to think of me, seeing that your mother and her family are part of the Kalderash clan that cursed me."
Angel stop talking because two EMT's are walking over to the three of them. The EMT's put Mr. Reducan onto the stretcher and then start to checking Mr. Reducan vital sign. At this point of the dream Buffy gets wakening up by the sound of someone knocking on her closed bedroom door. A few moments later Buffy's bedroom door open up and Mrs. Summers who wearing a pair of black dress pants and a white sleeveless blouse walks into Buffy's bedroom. Mrs. Summers walks over to her daughters' bed and Buffy slowly sit up in bed rubbing her eyes.
"You need to get up and get ready for school."
"Can I stay home from school?"
Mrs. Summers looks at her daughter and notice that her eyes are puffy and she looks tired. Mrs. Summers puts her right hand onto Buffy's forehead, which does not feel warm. Mrs. Summers takes her hand off Buffy's forehead and puts her hands on her hips, then looks at Buffy who is still rubbing her eyes.
"You do not seem to be running a fever and seeing it is your first day at a new school I feel that you should go to school."
"But I did not sleep well last night and I feel achy all over from help you move all of the boxes into the house yesterday!"
"No Buffy you need to go to school, get up and get dress."
"Fine, but will you give me a ride to school?"
"Yes."
Mrs. Summers walks out of Buffy's bedroom and close the bedroom door behind her. At the same time Buffy gets out of bed, which the white cast iron headboard is up against the far right-hand wall after a window if standing in the bedroom door. Buffy walks over to her closet, which is on the left side of the bedroom door if standing in the bedroom door and open up the four French doors of the closet, then look at the clothing in the closet.

"It was nice seeing Catalina again even if she did not stop Ah-choo to talk to us."
"It is her first day back at school, Catalina needs to get her class schedule, locker number and locker combination from the office then she has to go to the locker room to change into a leotard because she giving an exhibition performs of her Olympic vault, balance beam, uneven bars and floor routines at her welcome back assembly."

Xander starts to sneezes and cover his mouth and nose with a tissue, Amy and Willow looks over at Xander and when he stops sneezes, Xander notices that Willow and Amy are now looking at him and have worried looks on they face, at the same time Willow start to talk.
"Xander when your mom told me that you did not feel well last night I thought that you do not want to come over and study for Algebra two like we plan, so I did not believe your mom and now I know that you really did not feel well last night."
"Ah-choo do not feel bad Willow, my mom did not believe me last night either."
"Xander why did you not stay home, if you are sick?"
"I wanting to stay home Amy, but my mom would not let me because I was only one degree over the normal body temperature of ninety-eight point six degrees Fahrenheit, so she said Ah-choo I was not running a fever and my Ah-choo parent's rule is if you are not running a fever you have to go to school."
"Amy and Xander we should head to the gym, so we can get front row seats on the gym bleachers."
"Sound like a good Idea Willow."
Xander does not sound anything, so Amy and Willow start walking to the gym but stop when they notice Xander is not walking with them. The two teenage girls turn around and see Xander still lean against Willow's locker and he is blowing his nose into tissue.

She does a turn on both feet, so her back is to the end of the beam then she does a roundoff into a back handspring into a double tuck back salto with a full twist off of the end of the beam and stick the landing with her back to the beam to finish a prefect balance beam routine and at the same time principal Flutie start to talk into the portable microphone.
"That was a great beam routine and once again Catalina Victoria Reducan shows us why she is the best gymnast in the world. She will be preforming her floor routine next."
At the same time Catalina is putting chalk onto her feet, she then puts some chalk onto her hands. A few moments later Catalina steps onto the right corner of the mat and her back is to Amy, Willow, Buffy, Xander and Jesse. Catalina goes up on pointed toes and look down at the floor with a sad look on her face and when the instrumental version of the song reflection by the Charlie Daniel band start to play Catalina does a double turn with her left leg horizontal in front of her into a full turn with her left leg held in the spilt position. She runs a few pace toward the other corner, then does a roundoff into a back handspring into a back handspring into a piked double salto backwards with a full twist with prefect form and goes right into a switch spilt leap with a full turn. Catalina then does a front handspring into a front handspring into a double Arabian salto tucked with half turns and stick the land with her back to the edge of the mat. She turns on both feet toward the left corner of the mat then does a sheep jump with both legs bent behind her and foot pointed to her head into a split leap with one and half turns that take her into the left-hand corner of the mat. Catalina then does a one and half turns on her right foot and now her back is to the edge of the mat. She runs a few pace then does a roundoff into a whip into a whip into a layout double salto backwards and sticks a prefect tumbling pass. She runs a few pace then does a roundoff into a back handspring into a back handspring into a layout salto forward with double twist and sticks the land of the tumbling post facing the edge of the mat to end a prefect routine, but on the land of the last tumbling pass Catalina feel a sharp pain in her left knee. Catalina also hears a snap and it feels like a piece of bone break off her kneecap, but she just put a huge smile on her face and does not let anyone know that she is in pain. Principal Flutie walks up to the edge of the floor mat as Catalina step off the mat and onto the gym floor, then the principal starts to talk into the portable microphone.
"Catalina I have always wanting to know why you picked the song reflection for your floor routine music?"
"When I first start doing this floor routine in 1995 I pick that song because my grandmother Reducan who passes away in 1994 loved the song and it reminds me of my grandmother, but when I did the floor routines at the summer Olympic games I dedicate each of the floor routines to my grandmother and grandfather Reducan because the song was they favorite song and it reminds me of both of them."
"I am sure you grandparents were watching you from heaven and loved your floor routine. If you do not mind, I have two more questions for you?"
"I do not mind, go head and ask principal Flutie."
"How did you make it through the Olympic after your grandfather pass away and you no longer had a coach?"
"Before my grandfather pass away he asks the head coach of the USA women gymnastic team Gina Ionescu to take over coach me until the game end and I know that my grandfather would not want me to give up on my dream because he dead, so I went ahead and compete in the summer Olympic. I know you are going to want to know if I am retired from the sport now or if I'm going to stay in gymnastic. I plan on continue in the sport and try to make the 2000 summer Olympic team. I have all ready talk to Gina Ionescu and she is moving to Sunnydale from Dallas, Texas to take over training the elite gymnasts at Sunnydale gymnastic club and will be coaching me."
"Just one more question are you going to take time off to have surgery to fix the meniscus tear in your left knee or just go right back to training full time?"
"I plan on have the surgery soon and take sometime off from full training, but will not stop working out fully, I will still do upper body workouts and mostly be working on uneven bars until the doctor gives me the ok to start training fully on all the events."
"There is still time before the bell to head to second hour rings, everyone please take this time to get the textbooks and notebooks out of your lockers that all of you will need and finish any homework that needs to get done before going to your classes. Buffy Summers and Catalina Reducan I need the two of you to meet me by the door to the girls' locker room because I need to have a word with the two of you."
All the students, teachers and Mr. Giles who are sitting in the bleacher's stand up and then everyone but Buffy and Catalina leaves the gym. Catalina's pick up her gym bag from the floor and then she and Buffy walk over to principal Flutie who is standing by the door to the girls' locker room.
"Buffy Summers and Catalina Reducan before you head to your second hour class, I want the two of you to head to classroom fifteen and see Mrs. Jackson and get your textbooks, homework assignments and class notes for the last two weeks. Catalina after you change will you show Buffy to the history classroom?"
"Sure."
Catalina open up the locker room door and head into the locker room to change into the lite-blue jean skirt and the red wide strap tank top, which has a squared neckline. As Catalina is getting change principal Flutie and Buffy are talking about the school rules and about what happened at her last high school. Two and half minutes later Catalina walks out of the locker room and into the gym with her gym bag on her left shoulder and her deep purple backpack on her back. Buffy loves the jean skirt, tank top and glitter black flip flop that Catalina is wearing and also notices that Catalina did not take off the white Donjoy cartilage sleeve knee brace, but does not say anything because Catalina has start walking toward the gym doors. Buffy run over to Catalina and then the two teenage girls walk out of the gym. As the two of them are walking toward the front of the school Buffy notice that Catalina left knee look swelling and that she is limping. Buffy follows Catalina to the front of the school and once at the front of the high school Buffy sees Catalina walks toward the small hallway that is on the right-hand side of the main doors of the school if standing in front of the doors with your back to the doors. Buffy follows Catalina down the hallway and to the end of the hallway and then Catalina walks through the last door on her right. Buffy follows Catalina into the history classroom and the two teenage girls see two textbooks sitting on top of the teacher's desk. Mrs. Jackson smiles at Buffy and Catalina and then hand each of them textbooks, copies of the notes from the last two week and a piece of paper with the homework assignments they need to make up.
"Buffy Summers and Catalina Reducan I do not expect you to have the homework done for tomorrow class, but by Friday I want the first week of assignment's turn into me and next Friday I want the second week of assignments turn into me. Also the assignment that is do for tomorrow class is to be turned in tomorrow, just skips ahead to the section the assignment is in and do it before the rest of the homework."
"(Buffy and Catalina) yes Mrs. Jackson."
Buffy and Catalina walks to the classroom door and head into the hallway, then the two of them look at each other class schedule to see if they have any other class together. Buffy and Catalina sees they have all the same classes, which are first hour world history, second hour English, third hour physical science, fourth hour Algebra two, fifth hour lunch, sixth hour gym class and seventh hour intro to computers. Buffy and Catalina takes a moment to put the history textbooks, notes and list of homework assignments into their backpack or messenger bag and then the two teenage girls head to the English classroom. When Catalina and Buffy walks into the classroom Ms. Miller hand each of them a copy of The Grapes of Wrath, writing and grammar grade ten textbooks, literature grade ten textbooks, a sheet of paper with the class assignments and homework and copies of the notes that the two of them missed."
Buffy and Catalina walks away from the teachers' desk and over to the student desks. Buffy walks up to the third row and then up to the fourth desk, which is the desk behind Willow and sit down on the desk chair. Catalina walks up to first row and sits down on the desk chair of the third desk and Xander is sitting at the desk to her right in the second row of desk.

"Xander after school the two of us are going to the high school library and you are going to checkout algebra for dummies two and algebra for dummies two workbook and I will start giving extra assignments from Algebra for dummies two and algebra for dummies two workbook, which will help you understand what we are study in algebra two."
"Ok, Ah-choo if I make it through the school day I will go to the high school Ah-choo library to checkout these books."
Xander stop talking because he feels a sneeze coming and he grabs a tissue off of the desk and start sneezes into the tissue right away. The school day goes by slowly for Buffy, Catalina and Xander. Xander starts to feel worse as the school day goes on but he stays at school, but sits out of gym class because he too tried to play basketball. Catalina also sits out of gym because her left knee is hurting really badly and she having a hard time walking.
By the time the bell for seventh hour to end rings Buffy and Catalina have large piles of homework to do, the two slayers looks over at Xander as they walk to the computer lab door and see that he looks flushed, tired and has a bright red nose. He stops at Ms. Calender desk and pulls a handful of tissues out of the tissues' box, he then starts to blow his nose into one of the tissues. A minute later Xander, Buffy and Catalina are following Willow down the small hallway that the computer lab and library are in and the library is at the end of the hallway. Two minutes later Willow, Buffy, Catalina and Xander walk into the library, Catalina looks through the window of Mr. Giles office and see he is on the phone and did not hear them come into the library. Catalina and Buffy walk over to the study tables, Catalina pulls the second chair on the left-hand side of the first table out, if standing at the end of the table with your back to the doors and sits down on the chair. Catalina set her backpack onto the study table and gym bag on the floor. Then Catalina pulls the first chair out and turns the chair so the seat of the chair is facing her and puts her legs up on the chair. At the same time Buffy sits down on the chair across from Catalina and Willow and Xander head into the stacks, then to the math section. Two minutes later Catalina and Buffy have they world history textbook out and the two of them are reading chapter one: toward civilization, when Mr. Giles walks out of his office carrying a very large and old book with the word Vampyr on the cover of the book. When he reach the first study table Mr. Giles set the book on the end of the table, Buffy and Catalina looks up from they world history textbook and looks at Mr. Giles.
"Into every generation, there is a chosen one. One girl in all of the world, she alone will wield the strength and skill to stand against the vampires, demons, and the forces of darkness and stop the spread of evil, she is the slayer. But into this generation there are two slayers because when Catalina had her tonsils out in May she was give too much anesthesia and her heart stop for a minute, but the doctor did CPR and brought her back, but Catalina was gone long enough for you to be active as the slayer Buffy Summers!"
"Who dead to make Catalina a slayer Mr. Giles?"
"That is a good question Buffy, India Cohen was a slayer from 1993 to May 1, 1995."
"How did she dead?"
"A vampire called William the bloody killed India and a female vampire called Drusilla killed India watcher Christopher Botwell."
At the same time Mr. Giles hears someone sneezes in the stack and he stops talking. Mr. Giles then looks at Buffy and Catalina, then look up at the stack. Willow and Xander walk out of the stack and Xander is carry algebra for dummies two and algebra for dummies two workbook in his hands.
"Buffy and Catalina did you know there were students in the stacks?"
"(Buffy and Catalina) Yes."
"Then why did you not stop me from talking about vampires, demons and the two of you been vampire slayers?"
"(Catalina and Buffy) because it is rude to interrupt someone when their are talking."
"But now the two teenagers know that the two of you are slayers and that is supposed to stay a secret! Go over to the checkout counter and I will check the books out for you Xander Harris. Willow take a seat by Buffy, when I am done checking out the books I will answers any question Willow Rosenberg and Xander Harris has."
Mr. Giles walks over to the checkout counter and Xander follows him over to the counter and set the books down on the counter. Mr. Giles starts to check the books out and Xander who is out of tissues grabs a tissue out of the box of tissues on the checkout counter and then he starts to blow his nose into the tissue. Once the books are checkout Xander takes both of the books from Mr. Giles and grab the box of tissues off of the counter, then Xander walks over to the study tables and sit down on the third chair on the left-hand side of the table if your back is to the library doors.
"Giles will you go into your office and get a reusable ice pack for my left knee, because my knee is swelling and it hurt really badly?"
"Yes, I will get that for you right now."
"Thank you."
Mr. Giles walks into his office and over the first file cabinet. He then grabs the first aid kit off of the top of the file cabinet and open up the first aid kit. He gets out the reusable ice pack. Mr. Giles then walks out of his office cracking the ice pack to make it cold. When Giles reaches the study table, he hands the ice pack to Catalina. She set the ice pack on the table and then pull the Donjoy cartilage sleeve knee brace down to the ankle. Catalina then picks up the reusable ice pack and puts the ice pack onto her knee.
"Willow and Xander what you learn in this library is to stay in the library. In fact it is best if we do not talk about this here. Let head out to my car and I will drive all of you to the house that I am renting from Catalina and we will talk about this in the home library as Catalina pack up her family book collect, so I can put my books on the shelves, which include the book on the table."
"(Buffy, Catalina, Xander and Willow) that is fine."
The four teenage stands up from the chairs and then Buffy and Catalina puts they world history textbooks into they bag, as Willow and Xander grab they backpack. Xander put the books that he checkout into his backpack and then he picks up the box of tissues. A few minutes later the five of them are walking to Mr. Giles 1966 Citroën Station Wagon in the school parking lot. When they reach the car Buffy, Willow and Xander get into the back, because Catalina had called shot gun on the way out of the school. A few minutes later Mr. Giles is driving west down State Street and toward Memorial Drive, which is the street the Georgian house that was built in 1714 is on. When Giles reaches his street, he turns left onto the street and after driving a few miles down the street Giles turn right into the only driveway on the right side of the street. Buffy, Willow and Xander mouths open wide when the three story tan brick Georgian house comes into view. There takes in the house that white front door is in the center of the house with two windows on each side of the door on the first story of the house and the windows have white trim and white shutters. There are five windows on the second story of the house, on the third story there are only two windows and two chimney stacks one on the left side of the house and one on the right side of the house.

He turns the chair so it is facing Mr. Giles who standing in the center of the room, then Xander sits down on the chair and set the box of tissues on the table. Catalina open up the doors to the bookcase and then start taking the books off of the shelves and Willow start help Catalina takes the books out of the bookcase. Buffy clear her throat and Giles looks over at the slayer who was active in May of this year.
"Mr. Giles I need to use the bathroom, where is it at?"
"There a bathroom you can use on the second floor."
"Do you want Catalina to show you?"
"No I think I can find the bathroom on my own."
Buffy walks out of the library and over to the staircase, she then starts walking up the stairs. When Buffy steps onto the landing of the second floor she sees that the hallway walls are sage green like downstairs and there are hard wood floors on the second floor too and that there is a staircase to the third floor and her right and after the staircase is a door, if your back is to the grand staircase and the door lead into a bedroom.

Meanwhile, downstairs in the library Giles has just start to talk to Willow and Xander. Willow who is putting books into a box look up at Mr. Giles, but Xander is blowing his nose into a tissue, so he does not look at Mr. Giles.
"Xander and Willow this is what you need to know Buffy Summers and Catalina Reducan are vampire slayers, Catalina has been a slayer for a year and four months and Buffy has been one for four months now."
"How much did the two of you hear in the library?"
"(Xander and Willow) everything you said."
"Sniffling is there anything else we should know, like how to kill ah-choo a vampire or a demon if we come across one Ah-choo?"
Xander keeps sneezes and pulls a tissue out of the tissues' box and cover his mouth and nose with the tissue, as Willow and Catalina put stacks of books into boxes and at the same time Giles start talking to Willow and Xander again.
"To kill a vampire you can stake the vampire through the heart with a wooden stake, decapitate the vampire or burn them and vampires catch on fire if out in the sun. Holly water and cross will burn them too. The easy way to kill a demon is to stab them in the heart or decapitate, but Xander and Willow I would leave the killing of vampires and demon to the slayers."
At the same time Buffy walks into the library and sit down on the chair next to Xander, who is now slouching in the chair and has his eyes close. Buffy looks over at Xander and notice that his nose has started to run and it is drip toward his mouth.
"Xander your nose is runny and you need to wipe your nose with a tissue!"
"Thank Ah-choo for telling me Buffy."
Xander pulls another tissue out of the tissues' box and then wipe his nose with the tissue. Xander then blows his nose a few times, at the same time Willow walk over to Xander and by the time Willow reach Xander he stops blowing his nose and has his eyes close. Willow puts her right hand onto Xander's forehead, which feels warm to the touch. As Willow takes her hand off of Xander's forehead, Xander start sneezes into a tissue.
"Xander it feels like you are running a fever and you can't stop sneezes and have a runny nose. I think that you have a bad head cold and should go home, then go to bed for the night!"
Ah-choo I think you are right Willow."
Xander stands up from the chair and then walks toward the door of the home library sneeze into a tissue in his right hand. Buffy, Catalina and Willow watch Xander's walk out of the library and a few minutes later Catalina, Buffy, Willow and Giles hear the front door of the house close.
Meanwhile, outside Xander is slowly walking home, wishing that he had asked Mr. Giles to give him a ride home because he feels awful. The normal nine minute walk northeast from Memorial Drive to the corner of Seventh and Main Street take Xander fifteen minutes.

When he walks into the house, Xander's hear his mom and dad fighting in the kitchen, which is on the front right side of the house when you standing in the living room that on the left-hand side when you walking away from the front door. Xander walks through the living room and past the kitchen into the small hallway that lead to the two bedrooms, bathroom and the door to the basement staircase. He walks past the first bedroom on the left-hand side, which is his parents' bedroom and walk past the bathroom door on the right-hand side. Xander then walks through the second door on the left-hand side, which is his bedroom and his room is across from the door to the basement staircase. Xander close his bedroom door and then walk over to his bed and lays down on the bed as he sneezes into his hands.
At the same time at Rupert Giles's house, Willow is still help Catalina pack up her family book collects and she has just pulled a small red book off the shelf, but cannot read what is writing on the book cover because it is in Romanian.
"Catalina what does the cover of this book say?"
Catalina walks over to Willow and take the book from her and then looks at the front of the book to see what it says. A few moments later she looks up and smiles at Willow and then Catalina start to talk.
"It is a book of Gypsies spells and magical cures."
Catalina put the book into a box and goes back to take books off the shelf that she is working on. Willow, Buffy and Giles who are helping Catalina packing up her family book collect looks over at Catalina and notice that she has stops take books off the shelf and is kneeling beside one of the boxes putting the books into the box, but once the books are in the box she does not stand up right away. Mr. Giles walks over to Catalina and he notices that it looks like Catalina is in pain. Catalina notices that her watcher is looking at her and start to stand up, but her left knee buckles and she start to fall. Buffy run over to Catalina and catches her before she hits the floor. Buffy then help Catalina over to chair that Xander pull out when they come into the home library and help Catalina sit down on the chair. Mr. Giles walks over to Catalina with a worried look on his face.
"Catalina I am going to get you a bag of ice for your left knee, put your legs up and rest. I will be back in a minute."
Giles walks out of the library and heads to the kitchen, at the same time Catalina turn the chair next to her around so the seat of the chair is facing her and then puts her legs up on the chair, as Willow and Buffy go back to put books into boxes. A minute later Giles walk into the home library and set the bag of ice onto Catalina's left knee, which is very swelling and has a blueish-green hue to it. Catalina looks up to see Willow holding two books a red book and a brown leather bond book and she knows that Willow want to know what the books say seeing that the books are writing in Romanian and ancient Romanian.
"Willow the red book is about rune symbols on stone used in cast spells and in divination and the brown leather bond book is about Kalderash curse and how they are breaking."
"You can read Romanian and ancient Romanian?"
"Yes Willow my grandparents on both sides teach me Romanian and my great great grandparents and great grandparents on my mom side that still live in Borsa, Romania teaches me ancient Romanian."
Mr. Giles stop putting books into a box and looks up at Catalina and clear his throat. The two slayers and Willow look over at Giles who is taking books off of a shelf on the far right-hand wall if standing with your back to the library door.
"Catalina would you mind translation some of the book writing in Romanian and ancient Romanian that deals with vampires, demon, supernatural and with witchcraft and Gypsies spell and curse for me it would help me as a watcher to know what is in these books?"
"Sure Giles, but it will take me a while."
'That is fine and you can take as much time as you need."
Giles, Willow and Buffy go back to take books off the shelves and Catalina takes the books off the shelf she can reach from the chair she is sitting on. Two hours later Giles pulls his car up beside the sidewalk in front of Catalina's Victorian row house. Willow, Buffy, Giles and Catalina get out of Giles's car and the teenage grab they bag. Catalina walks up to the door of her house and unlocks the door as Giles, Willow and Buffy get boxes of books out of the back seat of the car or from the truck of the car.
"You can take the boxes upstairs and put them in the first bedroom, which is the small bedroom across from the staircase as you come up the stairs or are standing with your back to the staircase on the second floor landing."
"(Giles, Willow and Buffy) all right Catalina, go sit down on the sofa in the parlour and get off your injured knee."
Catalina heads into the house first and then walks into the parlour. As she is sitting down on the sofa Giles, Willow and Buffy walks into the house carrying boxes and then the three of them head upstairs. It takes Giles eight times to and from his house to Catalina's house to bring all of the books over. Buffy and Willow stays at Catalina's house every time Giles goes to get more boxes of books, but help him bring the boxes inside and upstairs each time. Once all of the boxes of books are in the small bedroom Giles leave Catalina's house and head home and Willow and Catalina take Buffy to the Bronze. But the girls have only been at the club dancing for a half hour when Catalina and Buffy see Jesse been lead out of the club by the female vampire that was in both of the slayers nightmares last night.
"(Catalina and Buffy) Jesse is leaving with a vampire, we need to follow Jesse and the vampire."
"I will come with."
"No, Willow it is not safe. As Buffy and I leave the club I will call Giles on my cellphone and have him come pick you up and take you home for the night."
"Ok that sound like a good idea. I will see the two of you at school tomorrow."
Buffy and Catalina runs over to the club door and then runs outside to see the female vampire and Jesse turn the corner. The two slayers follows Jesse and Darla all the way to Sunnydale Cemetery and into a mausoleum, but once in the mausoleum Darla is joined by three other vampires.
