So the title is a work in progress, as is the storyline. Don't expect me to update this story quickly since i don't even know where it's going yet but I had to upload it since I couldn't take it just sitting in my brain all day anymore. But have no fear when you finish reading it why don't you just go read another of my Buffy crossover stories? Since all my stories appear to involve The Scooby Gang. I should really change my name from DWforlife to BTVSforlife. Anyways don't you just love a good ramble?
Disclaimer: If I owned either of these I doubt I'd live in an apartment.
Giles groaned, he sat up and attempted to regain his bearings, this terrible habit of getting knocked unconscious was starting to get a tad bit tiresome.
As Giles's eyes adjusted to the darkness around him, he realized that he wasn't the only one suffering from a lack of consciousness; Buffy, Xander, Willow, Tara and Spike all were lying near him, and they appeared to be deep inside a forest, Giles found this somewhat odd, he was certain he recalled fighting in a warehouse. He didn't remember much else, perhaps the troll demon they had been fighting had some sort of power that could render his victims unconscious? It didn't make any sense why would the demon not kill them, but simply drag them into a forest? After all that kind murderous kind of behaviour was second nature to that species.
Giles stood up as the others stirred. "What happened?" Xander asked holding his head.
"I-I'm not entirely sure." Giles began cleaning his glasses (another habit he couldn't seem to break). "The last thing I remember was- was fighting that troll demon."
"Yeah! Yeah and then Wills tried to make that portal to banish it to another dimension or was it to make us more weapons? Either way it's the last thing I remember."
Everyone looked over at Willow, she paused from brushing dirt of her dress and looked at her friends. "I did this didn't I?"
"Aw, hey there's- there's no reason to be sad." Tara said "I- it looks like you ju- just teleported us to the m- middle of that- that forest outside of town."
They squinted through the darkness. "Well, If that is where we are; which way do you think the road is?" Spike asked while he lit a smoke.
Buffy pointed away from them. "It looks like the forest could be thinner that way, should we try it?"
Xander shrugged. "It definitely looks lighter, I say we go for it."
"Alright, and let's hurry; I don't like the idea of Dawn being alone with Glory still out there, and who knows how long we've already been away."
As the gang trudged along they began to notice a certain lack of modern day sounds, Not even the usual sight of light pollution was visible.
"M- maybe we're going the wrong way."Tara suggested.
"No, even if this isn't the way back to town there's civilization on every side of that forest," Buffy said, "And come on we can't be that far in."
"Well maybe I teleported us further away than we thought," Willow gasped. "Maybe we're not even in our own dimension! I- I've read about that happening; where- where a witch tries a banishing spell but i- i -it goes haywire and she ends up in some unknown hell dimension!"
Giles scoffed. "Don't be ridiculous Willow, y- you only began studying magic not too long ago, there is no possible way you have the power to- to teleport us all into another dimension!"
As Willow and Giles began bickering about the strength needed to perform such a powerful spell and why it was dangerous in the first place to even attempt a dimensional portal spell at Willows level they had reached a large clearing in the forest; a campsite and a pair of horses were all that were there. They walked over to the fireplace, where a small fire was just beginning to die.
"Hello! Hey anyone there?" Xander called out.
"Xander!" Buffy whispered. "Be quiet, we have no idea who or what this place belongs to!"
"Ah come on Buffy, it's a fire, one of the things vamps hate the most; what do we have to be afraid of?"
From behind them came a loud crash followed by a scream.
Everyone glared at Xander.
Seconds later a young raven haired boy appeared dragging an unconscious young man clad in chain mail; they were being chased by a large hairy four-legged beast.
Buffy sprung into a fighting stance preparing to kick some demon butt, when the young boy raised his hand and sent the monster flying backwards until it hit a tree and laid still.
The Scoobies stared at the young boy, he still had his back to them. He appeared to be watching the beast to make sure that it wasn't a threat anymore.
When he confirmed this he turned to his companion, that was when he realized they weren't alone and that the new comers had witness the entire ordeal.
With the dying light of the fire they watched as the boys eyes flicked from each of their faces before finally settling on Giles.
Even in the dim light they could see the raw terror that spread across his face.
"M-my lord." The boy fought to keep the fear out of his voice but they could still hear it.
All of the scoobies gave Giles a quizzical look, only to have it reflected back to them
