Summary:

Buffy and the gang head to Forks in search of an odd new species of demon that claim to have moved there and enrolled in the local high school. Demons who go by the name "Cullen". What happens when their paths collide? After Breaking Dawn. Season 7 Buffy without the potentials involved.

Buffy's Point Of View

We were driving down the long winding road as rain water stained the windshield of the silver minivan we were all crammed into. There were so many trees; I swear this area looked like one giant forest, there were hardly any residents. All I could see was green. It was making me sick. On the bright side at least I didn't have to worry about Angel or Spike going up in flames from the sun. Although Spike did sometimes get on my nerves even after he got a soul. Yes, Angel joined the team, Giles thought we'd need reinforcements so he called up his headquarters in LA, especially since both Dawn and Anya were back home helping to run the magic box shop Giles owned. Even though Dawn put up a fight about being left behind yet again she eventually gave in since everyone agreed it would be better for her to stay and help Giles collect any much needed information they could find.

"Ugh, there's only rain, green, and more rain. Why are we here again?" I whined as I turned towards the driver's seat to face Angel who was at the wheel of the car.

"Common Buff, this could be fun. We're here to kick some supernatural ass" Xander's voice boomed from the back seat. "Well technically you're going to do the ass kicking and me and Will over here are gonna observe from a safe, non-threatening distance and then dead boy's gonna jump in and help at just the right moment, I don't know about captain peroxide though" He added.

"Captain peroxide, really? Well that is just bloody original" Spike retorted.

"For the millionth time could you not call me dead boy?" Angel complained as he scowled at the road ahead.

"But seriously, this is pointless, we aren't supposed to be fighting evil outside of Sunnydale, why do we have to travel all the way to Forks of all places? Can't someone else do it?" I stated. This wasn't fair. I crossed my arms and glared at the ground. Why'd I have to be the chosen one? There should be more than just me as a Vampire Slayer. Sure there was Faith, but Faith being, well Faith, she didn't like responsibility and fled from all things that required such responsible actions. Maybe if I killed her it would spike a potential and they'd take her place. Maybe then I'd catch I break. I contemplated this theory but then decided against it, Giles would be all disappointed in his unique "watcher way" as he'd waggle his finger at me using large words I wouldn't completely understand.

"Buffy, Giles said this was really important, it was something he never has seen before, never before documented. A watcher from the council spotted these weird demons that seemed to almost sparkle in sunlight and they prey off of animals, we have to find out more and if needed, we slay" Willow said. Ah Willow, the voice of reason, she was one of my best friends, alongside Xander of course.

"It's true, we should find out more, I can go undercover and talk to them, find out information then we attack. They'll trust a fellow demon" Angel said.

Spike scoffed at that. "Oh please, just because you're a vamp doesn't mean you should be the 'big bad', I'm a vamp too, I say I should be the one to go and give them what's coming to them."

"Spike, you never take things seriously, we can't afford to mess this up" Angel countered.

They never gave it a rest did they? Seriously this grudge they held for each other that was centuries old was seriously getting on my nerves. Drusilla was long gone, I get it that there's a special connection between sires, Angel being her creator, but she obviously had a special connection to Spike too since she sired him. I don't know what was so special about her, she just seemed like a lunatic to me, downright crazy.

I rolled my eyes. "Give it a rest. Spike shut the hell up and Angel, just keep driving, go a little faster even while you're at it. You're going at grandpa speed, I swear an old lady with a walker could be passing us at the speed you're going. I get that you're old and all but seriously, get with the twenty-first century!" I nearly shouted.

"I would have to concur with Buff" Xander said. "Wow, concur, that's a big word. I see your English is improving" Willow said to Xander as she beamed and ruffled his shaggy dark hair. "Yep, my English speaking is goodly" he responded. Willow laughed; I joined in letting out a small giggle. Angel and Spike both just rolled their eyes. Spike had to bite back a witty retort and Angel just continued to brood. Some things never changed.

Finally we arrived at our destination, Fork's High. We were all going to pose as new students since Giles told us the demons were enrolled there and it would give us a chance to gain more knowledge and figure out their motives. We all stepped out of the vehicle and made our way towards the entrance of the building.

"Well this is gonna be fun" Xander said with a grin plastered on his face. Angel just smacked the back of his head. "Ow!" Xander cried as he absentmindedly rubbed the back of his head. We all broke off into peals of laughter as we entered the hell hole.
