Chapter 7
Old Friends

Buffy Took a step back, and looked up and her watcher
"How come your here Giles?"

Giles sighed "There's something we need to discuss, and I needed to make sure you were safe"
Giles looked around the party that's was still in full swing "We should talk in private"

Buffy nodded in agreement " We can go back to my place"

Klaus watched Buffy and this Giles leave, he had been listening to their conversation, go back to her place to discuss what he wondered, who was this man to her?


After they had arrived back at Buffy's place, she had put a pot of tea on and poured herself and Giles a cup, she knew tea had always calmed him.

"So what brings you into Mystic Falls?" Buffy asked taking a seat.

"I know you wanted to retire from the being a slayer Buffy, I always wanted you to have some part of a normal life, and I had no involvement with bringing you back, Willow messed with dark magic and there are always consequences to our actions"

"Consequences like a demon being brought back with me?"

Giles's head snapped up "You've seen him already"

"He was in my house last night, he attacked me"

"Did you kill it?" Giles asked eagerly

"No, he err, he said something about on one of us existing at a time and disappeared"

Giles knew Buffy wasn't telling him something.
"Yes, magic has consequences and when willow performed the spell to bring you back it opened a door for this demon to come back with you, and as a balance in order to survive it will need a corporeal body, in this case yours"

Buffy was a little taken back "So this demon wants to hijacker my body to survive?"

"Simply put yes, am not sure the ritual it will need to perform to accomplish the switch, but the sooner you kill this thing, the better its going to be"

"Okay, say this thing gets in my body with this ritual what's going to happen to me?"

"You wont exist, it will remove your soul and be replaced with the demons, the demon will have your body but you wont exist within it"

"How do I kill this thing? And how do I find it?"

"A simple beheading, and as for finding this things shouldn't be to hard, it's going to be looking for so I imagine its already keeping a close eye on you.

At that moment the phone began to ring. Buffy got up to answer it with a sigh.

"Hello"

"Buffy? Its Rebekah, you need to get back over to my place now" Rebekah's voice sounded urgent.

"Rebekah now is not really a good time, I'll swing by tomorrow okay"

"Not a good time, well how about a demon just wrecked my party, a demon looking for you, I think you have some explaining to do" Rebekah sounded a little upset now.

"Is anyone Hurt?" Buffy asked

"I don't think so, couple of causalities, and my hair that thing can throw fire"

"Okay, am on my way over, I'll explain everything"

Buffy hung up and turned to Giles.

"So this demon turned up and my friends house and wrecked the party, hurt a few people, I need to get over there so if its still close"

"and what about your friends Buffy how are you going to explain this demon to them?"

"Right, about that. This friend she's kind of a vampire" Buffy said the last part as quiet as she could.

Giles stood up "Vampire, I thought this move was about wanting a normal life, and your friends with a vampire now?"

"It is, and I do more than anything want a normal life, am starting to think am never going to have that, no matter where I go it seems there always something after me, something I have to stop, and as much as I want to walk away, I cant"

Buffy sighed this was the truth, she hated to admit it, but she was always going to be the slayer, it didn't matter where she ran to, the only difference now is she wasn't sure she still had the fight left in her, the last time she had come face to face with demon she froze.

"I think, that maybe your finding it hard being back, maybe you needed a break from it, but being a slayer is part of you, its your destiny, you just need to find a balance between being a slayer and having a life, if any one can do that Its you Buffy, You just need to fight for it"

Buffy nodded she missed Giles and his little pep talks.
"I know, I'm starting to think your right, a balance sounds like a good idea, its something am going to have to think about"

"In the mean time, am coming over to this friends house with, if the demons still around you'll need back up and I don't trust this vampire" Giles made for the front door.

"Okay, but just a heads up, when I say vampire I might have meant vampires" Buffy said.

"How many vampires Buffy?"

"6 that I know of"

Giles looked disappointed at her.

"Its different, I think. They only feed off animals or they get blood banks, there not hurting anyone"

"Well I guess will see how they feel about having a slayer in town" Giles shook his head, this was not going to go down well.
