OK, I hope that this will turn out to be a good one. Read on!

Chapter One: Returning

It's bee a long time. I thought I'd never see this town again. The young woman looked out at the city that one was her home. The high school gymnasium that was burnt down and she was expelled. I just had to end up in Sunnydale, right over the hellmouth.

I hope that Willow and Zander are ok. The rest of the Slayers could have used a break as well.

Buffy Summers turned around and walked back into her hotel room. Closing the balcony door she noticed a flash in the distance, somewhere in the residential area. I hope it wasn't anything serious. Ever since Sunnydale blew up she's been riding a thin line.

Looking for all the potential slayers was hard work. Now she received a call from Angel that another slayer was here in LA. She would have sent Andrew or Giles, but she needed to see Angel. She wanted to see how deep he was in with 'Wolfram Hart'.

Buffy turned back to the room and sat down on the bed. With a heavy sigh, she lied down and slept.

In the morning, Buffy woke with a feeling of foreboding. Something in going to happen today and it's not going to be pretty. Dressing quickly Buffy Summers, the Vampire Slayer, headed to Wolfram Hart Attorney's at Law.

When the elevator doors opened, Buffy was met with a startling sight. Demons everywhere, some in suits and dresses and some even answering phones. She walked up to the receptionist's desk to ask where Angel was, when that same receptionist squealed with delight and ran straight to her.

"Buffy! Oh my God!" Buffy was swamped in a crushing hug from none other than Harmony, a vampire.

"Whoa, hold it." Buffy held up her hands to ward her off. "Harm? What are you doing here?"

"I'm Angel's secretary."

"What? When did that happen?"

"Oh you know, a while ago. Do you want me to tell Angel you're here?"

"Um, no, I think that I'll surprise him."

"Great. He's right thru that door. God Buffy, it great to see you."

"Um, yeah, you too, Harmony."

Buffy turned towards the door, just as it swung open.

" . . . and I want Gunn on it OK."

"Sure thing boss."

Everyone stopped as they noticed who was standing in front of them.

"Buffy." Angel stared.

"Um, hi Angel. I hope that I'm not interrupting anything?"

"Oh, no we were just finishing up." Angel turned to Fred, "Would you get those reports Fred."

Fred smiled, "Sure, Angel."

"Buffy, why don't you come into my office and we'll fill you in."

"Great." Buffy followed Angel back into his office. He gestured towards a seat and asked, "Would you like anything to drink?"

"No, thank you." Buffy removed her coat and sat down. "Listen, I'm here about those reports that you sent to us. You said there were three?"

"Yeah, three women slaying demons and vampires and the like. It's not like we couldn't handle it, but they also seemed to be some kind of witch. We were kind of hoping you would have sent Willow, but since you are here."

The door opened and Fred walked in with Wes on her heals.

"Buffy!" Wes exclaimed. "How have you been?"

"Just fine Wes. You?" Buffy hugged her former watcher.

"Oh, I've been doing just fine." And Buffy noticed the side look he gave Fred.

"Buffy, how about a stakeout? Johnson's Memorial Cemetery?"

"Great Angel. Just like old times." Buffy smiled.

"Yeah, old times." Angel sighed. Yeah, old times, like that would ever happen again.

"Then let's go." Buffy smiled at him.
