1. Chapter 1

Dee shifted the backpack on her shoulder and took another look around the university campus. Finding Buffy Summers among the throng would have been very difficult. But she had a flawless class schedule and a recent photograph thanks to her sister. She and Thea may not get along often but for the right reasons, Thea was invaluable.

And while it might not be necessary, Dee was even registered as a student. ASB card, high school transcripts, the works. As long as no one had any reason to dig very far, she would have no problems.

For each class she shared with Buffy, Dee sat in the back and paid half a mind to the lecture while she studied the back of Buffy's head. Or Willow's. Anything she could learn might be useful. She even followed close behind them between a couple classes but their conversation was normal.

The only times she had to worry about drawing attention to herself was when she was invoked. She usually blocked them out since there were too many to answer them all, but sometimes there were a few that seemed interesting enough to assist. She would watch Willow perk up with each surge and look around and Dee would lower her head and scribble on her notebook until Willow looked away.

Dee learned very little about the Slayer on her first day and looked forward to the gymnastics tryout. She easily made the varsity team. She took the practice schedule and brushed off some of the girls who tried to introduce themselves.

"Bitch," they said as she walked away.

Dee was impatient to finish her task in Sunnydale but Slayers were a new kind of prey and they needed to be studied before she should take any action. She also needed to study the terrain. Sunnydale was a dangerous town and Dee had actually avoided it for years. Not that she feared danger, but magic had complicated her life before and too many creatures were attracted to the Hellmouth. And while she was in touch with Thea at the moment, Dee was worried about running into a relative while she was in town. And she had never enjoyed family drama.

Around the campus she noticed some of the students checking her out. She was careful to casually show the ring on her left hand and hoped it would be a good enough deterrent but there were usually a few who would probably approach her anyway.

When classes were over she followed Buffy to her dorm and then went home, herself. Dee studied her homework until nightfall and dressed to go out. She looked like a modern ninja armed with crossed short blades at her back and a short bow and arrows between them. It was time to take a look at the town.

Shadows were plentiful and her hunting skills were unrivalled. She explored a section of the town and and noted the type and number of creatures she saw. She even found a couple dens. She tried to observe only but a few times she could not help but be noticed and and beheaded two vampires and shot one demon.

Daylight came and Dee went home to change into her student clothes and repeat the day before. She watched other students yawn and sip their morning coffee and she shook her head. What pitiful creatures humans were.
