Chapter One:
Welcome to the Hellmouth
*Narcissa's POV*
I woke to my dad shaking me awake. I groaned and rolled out of bed before walking quickly to the bathroom to take a quick shower before getting dressed after brushing my teeth and washing my face. I picked my my bag and unplugged my phone from the charger. I looked at my bookshelf and bit my lip, I held out my hands and my spell book came to me. I smiled, I loved magic. I looked at the time, it was 8:15am, time to leave. I smoked into the kitchen, frighting my mother.
"Cissa!" she scolded "I really wish you wouldn't do that" she said as she frittered around the kitchen
"Sorry mom" I smiled and opened a cupboard, I took out a cereal bar and kissed my mom on the cheek. I passed my dad on my way to the door
"Bye" I called and I left the house. I got in my car and drove to school.
I parked the car and got out, I walked up the stepped and saw Willow
"Willow!" I called, making her turn and smile at me before frowning at something behind me. I turned just in time to see Xander on a skateboard slam into a stair railing. I giggled and we walked over to him
"I'm Okay. I feel good." he said "Willow, Cissa! You're both so very much the people that I wanted to see!" he stood up and walked to us
"Oh, really?" Willow smirked as we started walking towards the school
"Yeah. You know, I kinda had a problem with the Math." Xander said
"Uh, which part?" Willow asked making me snort
"The Math part Willow. It's Xander" I laughed when Xander shoved me lightly
"Shut up" he smirked "Can you help me out tonight, pleeeease, be my study buddy?" he pouted at Willow knowing I wouldn't help him
"Well, what's in it for me?" she asked
"A shiny nickel!" Xander grinned as he held up a coin
"Okay. Do you have 'Theories in Trig'? You should check it out."
"Check it out?" Poor Xander looked so confused
"From the library? Where the books live..." I smirked at him
"Right, I'm there! See, I wanna change..."
We walked through the school doors and met Jesse, another one of our friends. Unfortunately I find him rather annoying, he had a big crush on me
"Hey, hey!" he grinned and tried to put his arm around me. I scoffed and pushed it off
"Hey, Jesse, what's what?" Xander grinned
"New Girl!" Jesse smirked
"That's right, I saw her. Pretty much a hottie!" Xander drooled making me roll my eyes and look at Willow with pity. Poor girl was in love with Xander and he barley looked at her
"I heard someone was transferring..." Willow said
"So tell!" Xander ordered Jesse as we walked through the hallway
"Tell what?" Jesse frowned
"What do you now about her?" I asked Jesse looked at us like we were stupid and held out his hands
"New girl!"
"Well, you're certainly a font of nothing!" Xander huffed as we rounded a corner.
"Are we going to the Bronze tonight?" I asked
"Yep, can't wait" Xander grinned "Maybe the new girl will be there"
Willow looked down, I placed me hand on her should and gave her a sad smile.
"Well I'm gonna go" I waved and left them in the corridor.
I entered the Library and sat down at one of the tables in the back. I liked it there, it was quiet and there was never anyone there. I placed my bag on the desk and took out my spell book, my parents never allowed me to take it to school before, but what they don't know wont hurt them. I looked at the candle in front of me and placed my finger on it, it lit immediately. I opened my book and began to look through my spells, some I created by myself and others handed down by generations in my family. I heard a noise and turned around, I saw Mr. Giles, the new Librarian.
"Miss. Darkmore, what are you doing back here?" he asked with him British accent. I know I shouldn't but I have slight crush on the man. There is just something about him.
"Oh, nothing" I smiled putting my book away and grabbing another from my bag and held it up "Just reading" Mr. Giles held out his hand and I passed him the book
"The Witching Hour" he read the Title and looked back at me in surprise. "You like this sort of thing?" he asked "What's not to like?" I smirked making him flush
"Yes, well. You better get to Class, Miss. Darkmore" he stuttered
"Call me Cissa" I smiled and packed my book away before walking out of the doors, not realising that my necklace fell off.
*TWTW*
*Narcissa's POV*
I met up with Willow after her History class. We stood by the fountain as she took a drink. Willow looked up and straightened fast, I frowned and looked behind me. I groaned, it was Queen Bitch and the New Girl
"Willow! Nice dress! Good to know you've seen the softer side of Sears." Cordelia smirked nastily
"Uh, oh, well, my mom picked it out." Willow stuttered
"No wonder you're such a guy magnet."
"Shut your mouth Bitch before I shut it for you" I snarled, Making her flinch. I had to be the only person in the school who she was afraid of. Ever since she was mean to me and then she had really bad luck for a week before she apologised to me and it stopped.
"Whatever. Are you done?" Cordelia asked looking at Willow. Willow looked at the fountain, then back at Cordelia. "Oh!" She stepped back bumping into me, we turned and left going to class.
It was lunch time and we were sitting on a bench in the quad. I pulled out a turkey sub with cheese that I conjured "Soo, how was History?" I asked
"It was fine. " Willow replied "The lesson was kinda boring though"
"Uh, Hi! Willow, right?" we look up to see the new girl
"Why? I-I mean, hi! Uh, did you want us to move?" Willow started to pick up her lunch until I stopped her.
"Why don't we start with, 'Hi, I'm Buffy,' and, uh, then let's segue directly into me asking you for a favour." Buffy took the seat on the other side of me "It doesn't involve moving, but it does involve hanging out with me for a while." she looked at me "Sorry I don't know your name" she told me
"It's Narcissa Darkmore, But call me Cissa" I smiled
"Aren't you hanging out with Cordelia?" Willow asked biting her lip
"I can't do both?" Buffy asked confused
"No" I said bluntly making Willow nudge me "Sorry" I mumbled
Buffy took a deep breath "Look, I really wanna get by here-new school-and... Cordelia's been really nice... to me... anyway, but, um, I kinda have this burning desire not to flunk all my classes, and I heard a rumour that you were the person to talk to if I wanted to get caught up."
"Oh, I could totally help you out! Uh, if you have sixth period free we could meet in the library?" Willow smiled brightly "Or not." Buffy said quickly. Making us look at her confused "Or we could meet some place quieter. Louder. Uh, that place just kinda gives me the wiggins."
"How could you not like it in there?" I wondered
"Oh, it has that effect on most kids. Cissa you used to hate the Library." Willow pointed out
"That was before we got the new Hot older, Librarian" I smirked, making Willow shake her head and Buffy to screw up her face
"He's new?" she frowned
"Yeah, he just started. He was a curator at some British museum, or, or The British Museum, I'm not sure. But he knows everything, and he brought all these historical volumes and biographies, and am I the single dullest person alive?" Willow sighed
"Not at all." Buffy said, just as Xander popped up behind us and sat between Buffy and I, while Jesse stood in front of us
"Hey!" Jesse grinned
"You guys busy? Are we interrupting? We're interrupting." Xander stated as he threw Jesse his bag
"Hey!"
"Hey!"
"Hey there!" Buffy, Willow and Jesse greeted each other while I continued to eat
"Buffy, this is Jesse and that's Xander." I said once I swallowed
"Oh, me and Buffy go waaay back, old friends, very close. Then there's that period of estrangement where I think we were both growing as people, but now here we are, like old times, I'm quite moved." Xander rambled making me laugh
"Is it me, or are you turning into a bibbling idiot?" Jesse smirked
"No, it's, uh, it's not you." Xander looked down
"Well, it's nice to meet you guys, I think." Buffy said Xander jumped down and rummaged through his bag
" Well, you know, we wanted to welcome ya, make ya feel at home, unless you have a scary home..." Jesse rambled trying to make Buffy feel welcome, but he only succeeded in creeping her out
"And to return this." Xander held up a stake "The only thing I can think is that you're building a really little fence." he handed it to Buffy
"Hah, no, um, a-a-actually it was for self-defense. Everyone has them in L.A. Pepper spray is just so passé." Buffy lied making me roll my eyes. The only reason I knew about Vampires was because of me being a witch
"So what do you do for fun, what do you like, what do you look for in a man, let's hear it." Xander shot questions at her
"If you have any dark, painful secrets you'd like us to publish?" Jesse added
"Gee, everyone wants to know about me. How keen." Buffy said
"Well, not much goes on in a one Starbucks town like Sunnydale. You're pretty big news." I said, taking a drink of my Pepsi
"I'm not. Really." she denied
"Are these guys bothering you?" Cordelia interrupted
"Oh look its Queen Bitch" I smiled nastily making Willow nudge me once again
"Uh, no!" Buffy said as Cordelia glared at us
"She's not hanging out with us." Willow said trying to get Cordelia to leave us alone
"Hey! Cordelia!" Jesse stepped up next to her. She was the other girl Jesse fancied apart from me
"Oh, please!" Cordelia scoffed at Jesse "I don't mean to interrupt your downward mobility, but I just wanted to tell you that you won't be meeting Coach Foster, the woman with the chest hair, because gym was cancelled due to the extreme dead guy in the locker."
I perked up "Dead Body? Cool" I mumbled
"What?" Buffy panicked
"What are you talking about?" Willow asked nervous
"Some guy was stuffed in Aura's locker!" Cordelia explained
"Dead." Buffy stated
"Totally dead. Way dead."
"It's not just a little dead, then?" Xander and I asked
"Don't you have an elsewhere to be?" Cordelia sneered at us
"Y'know, if you need a shoulder to cry on, or just to nibble on..." Jesse flirted
"How did he die?" Buffy butted in
"I don't know." Cordelia shrugged
"Well, were there any marks?"
"Morbid much! I didn't ask!" Cordelia looked at Buffy strangely Buffy looked at us all before standing
"Um, I gotta book. I'll, I'll see you guys later." she grabbed her things and left
"What's her deal?" Cordelia asked as she watched her leave.
I entered the Library with Xander so we could get his Trig book.
"I don't see why I had to come" I huffed
"Because you have a Free period and have nothing else to do" he countered
"True" I said and we looked in the Trig section. We heard the library doors slam open
"Okay, what's the stitch?" we heard Buffy ask angrily
"Sorry?" I heard Mr. Giles ask
"You heard about the dead guy, right? The dead guy in the locker?" Buffy asked, making Xander and I frown
"Yes." Giles stated
We heard a bag hit the floor, followed by footsteps
"'Cause, it's the weirdest thing." Buffy started "He's got two little, little holes in his neck, and all his blood's been drained. (meets him) Isn't that bizarre? Aren't you just going, 'ooh'?"
"I was afraid of this." Giles sighed
"Well, I wasn't! It's my first day! I was afraid that I was gonna be behind in all my classes, that I wouldn't make any friends, that I would have last month's hair. I didn't think there'd be vampires on campus. And I don't care." Buffy stated Xander looked at me 'Vampires?' he mouthed, his eyes wide
"Then why are you here?" Giles asked
"To tell you that... I don't care, which... I don't, and... have now told you, so... bye."
"Is he, w-will he... rise again?" Giles stuttered
"Who?"
"The boy."
"No. He's just dead."
"Can you be sure?"
"To make you a vampire they have to suck your blood. And then you have to suck their blood. It's like a whole big sucking thing. Mostly they're just gonna kill you. Why am I still talking to you?" Buffy asked herself Xander and I continued to listen in as we heard Buffy go back down the stairs
"You really have no idea what's going on, do you? You think it's coincidence, your being here? That boy was just the beginning." Giles warned
"Oh, why can't you people just leave me alone?" Buffy sighed
"Because you are the Slayer." I frowned, The Slayer. I've heard of them "Into each generation a Slayer is born, one girl in all the world, a Chosen One, one born with the strength and skill to hunt-" Giles was cut off by Buffy
"With the strength and skill to hunt the vampires, to stop the spread of their evil blah, blah, blah... I've heard it, okay?" "I really don't understand this attitude. You, you've accepted your duty, you, you've slain vampires before..."
"Yeah, and I've both been there and done that, and I'm moving on." I nearly scoffed. Slayers can't walk away.
"What do you know about this town?" Giles asked as he walked into his office
"It's two hours on the freeway from Neiman Marcus?" Buffy asked sarcastically
"Dig a bit in the history of this place. You'll find a, a steady stream of fairly odd occurrences. Now, I believe this whole area is a center of mystical energy," he came back out "that things gravitate towards it that, that, that you might not find elsewhere." he something on the table
"Like vampires." Buffy said
"Like zombies, werewolves, incubi, succubi, everything you've ever dreaded was under your bed, but told yourself couldn't be by the light of day. They're all real!" Giles explained excitedly making me smile, he was so cute.
"What? You, like, sent away for the Time-Life series?" Buffy asked
"Ah, w-w-w-yes."
"Did you get the free phone?"
"Um, the calendar."
"Cool! But, okay, first of all, I'm a Vampire Slayer. And secondly, I'm retired. Hey, I know! Why don't you kill 'em?" Buffy asked
"I-I'm a Watcher, I-I haven't the skill..." I rolled my eyes. Watchers have to have the skill, to train the Slayers
"Oh, come on, stake through the heart, a little sunlight... It's like falling off a log." Buffy scoffed
"A, a Slayer slays, a Watcher-"
"Watches?" Buffy snarked
"Yes. No! He, he trains her, he, he, he, prepares her-" Giles stuttered
"Prepares me for what? For getting kicked out of school? For losing all of my friends? For having to spend all of my time fighting for my life and never getting to tell anyone because I might endanger them? Go ahead! Prepare me." Buffy said angrily
They were silent for a few moments before Buffy scoffed and left the Library. A few seconds later, Giles left too. Xander and I walked out of the stacks "What?" Xander asked holding the Trig book. He turned to me and I shrugged before leaving the Library.
*TWTW*
*Narcissa's POV*
I put the finishing touches on my outfit for tonight before grabbing my phone and money and placing it in my jacket pocket. I touched my neck and paused, my pendant was gone
"Okay, don't panic" I told myself "It's not like anyone really knows that Witches are real. I must have left it in the Librar-" I stopped myself and groaned. I left it in the one place with someone who knows everything about the supernatural. Mind you, he is a watcher, and he's nice. He might have some magic of his own. I walked down the stairs to see my mother and father watching TV together.
"Mom, Dad" I said, as they looked up "I'm going out"
"Be careful baby" Dad says "Remember what I said" he warned. I rolled my eyes
"Yeah, Yeah" I waved my hand "Don't leave the club with anyone you don't know, No magic in front of anyone. Oh and no Boys!" I grinned and kissed their cheeks before leaving the house. I didn't take my car so I just walked to the Bronze.
I walked into the Bronze and looked around. The place was buzzing with Teenagers. I looked around for Willow and Xander. I walked to the bar to get a drink
"Can I get a Vodka and Coke please?" showing the guy my fake ID. Thank God for magic
"Hey, Cissa" a familiar voice chirped. I looked to my left and saw Willow. I blinked, I didn't even notice her.
"Oh, Hey" I smiled and sat beside her "Your parents know where you are?"
"Oh, yeah" I could tell she was lying
"Hey!" we turned to see Buffy standing behind us. She had changed out of her skirt and was wearing black pants and a jacket.
"Oh, hi!" Willow smiled while I nodded and sipped my drink Buffy walked around us and sits on the stool next to Willow. We turned to face her
"Oh, you're here with someone?" she asked us
"No, I'm just here. I thought Xander was gonna show up." Willow said
"No, I don't go for high school boys" I smirked
"Oh, are you guys going out?" Buffy asked Willow
"No, we're just friends. We used to go out, but we broke up."
"How come?" Buffy asked frowning. I snorted, Willow and Xander hadn't been together since they were five years old. "He stole my Barbie." Buffy looked at her confused
"They were five" I explained
"Oh." Buffy nodded
"I-I-I don't actually date a whole lot... lately." Willow stuttered
" Why not?" Buffy asked
"She freaks when guys talk to her." I said "She can only get a few noises out before she walks away"
"It's not that bad!" Buffy said
"No, i-it is. I think boys are more interested in a girl who can talk." Willow told her
"You really haven't been dating lately." Buffy sighed
"It's probably easy for you." Willow sighed dejectedly "Boys love to talk to Cissa" she looked at me
"Yeah, real easy." Buffy said
"High School boys are boring Will-Bear" I told her "You need a man. Someone with smarts, But not the Librarian. He's mine" I smirked, though Buffy looked grossed out
"I-I mean you don't seem too shy." Willow told Buffy, ignoring my statement
"Well, my philosophy, do you wanna hear my philosophy?" Buffy asked
"Yeah, I do!" Willow grinned
"Life is short." Buffy stated. I nearly scoffed 'You'd know all about that wouldn't you'
"Life is short!" Willow repeated
"Not original, I'll grant you, but it's true. You know? Why waste time being all shy and worrying about some guy, and if he's gonna laugh at you. Seize the moment, 'cause tomorrow you might be dead." Buffy explained
"Oh, that's nice!" Willow smiled
"Um, I'll be back in a minute." Buffy stood up
"Oh, tha-that's okay, you don't have to come back." Willow sighed
"I'll be back in a minute." Buffy smiled before she walked away
"Seize the moment." Willow said
"I'm going to the toilet okay?" I patted her on the shoulder and left.
When I returned I saw no sign of Willow or Buffy. I wandered through the club looking for them when I bumped into Giles.
"Mr. Giles? What are you doing here?" I asked
Giles looked at me and raked his eyes over me. I don't think he meant too as he blushed and stuttered out a reply
"I-I-well-I was looking for-Buffy!" he exclaimed making me frown
"Buffy?" I asked but then turned when someone came up to us
"That was quick. Well done! I-I need to go to the library. This Harvest thing..." Giles rambled. I think they forgot about me
"I didn't find them!" Buffy cried Giles grabbed Buffy arm and turned her to face him
"The vampire is not dead?" He panicked
"No, but my social life is on the critical list." Buffy said Giles let her go
"So, what do we do?"
"I'll take care of it!" Buffy said
"I-I-I need to come with you, yes?" Giles asked, as I crossed my arms over my chest. I am really that invisible?
"Um, excuse me?" I raised my hand making them look at me. I did enjoy the way their eyes widened when they finally noticed I was still there
"Where's Willow?" I asked glaring at them.
"I-I-Uh" Buffy struggled "She went home"
"Really? So why do I get the feeling your lying to me?" I snarled, making them flinch "She's with a vampire isn't she?" I took their stunned silence as a yes and turned and left. Not caring whether or not they followed.
I walked out of the club and walked into Xander
"Hey" he said
"Sorry, Xander. I can't talk right now" I told him as Buffy exited the club
"Xander" she greeted "Have you seen Willow?"
"She's at the Cemetery" I stated making them both look at me "What? Vampires love Cemeteries" I grinned mockingly as turned to leave again, but was stopped by Buffy
"Who are you? What are you?" she glared
"Listen, Blondie" I snapped "My best friend could be becoming a snack right now, and you wanna stand here talking" I turned and walked off. I could here Xander and Buffy talking as I walked quickly. Buffy and Xander suddenly caught up with me. I rolled my eyes, I thought Slayer were meant to do this by themselves.
"Vampires? You mean all the stuff in library was real?" Xander asked, he turned to me "You knew about this?"
"Xander there is just some things you don't understand. But I promise I'll explain everything once we have Willow" I told him and we raced to the Cemetery.
We made our way into the mausoleum just as Willow screamed
"Well, this is nice." Buffy said "I-it's a little bare, but a dash of paint, a few throw pillows... call it home!" she moved behind the coffin to draw the vampires away from Willow and Jesse
"Who the hell are you?" The blonde vampire asked
"You mean there's actually someone in this town who doesn't know already? Whew, that's a relief, I'm telling you! Having a secret identity in this town is a job of work."
"Buffy, we bail now, right?" Xander asked
"Not yet!" The male said
"Okay, first of all, what's with the outfit? Live in the now, okay? You look like DeBarge!" Buffy insulted
The vampire was closing in, but Buffy turned to the Blonde
"Now, we can do this the hard way, or... well, actually there's just the hard way." Buffy threatened
"That's fine with me!" The Female smirked
"Are you sure? Now, this is not gonna be pretty. We're talking violence, strong language, adult content..." Buffy trailed off.
The male vampire roared behind her, just as Buffy turned to stake him. I brought my hand up and blew him into ashes. Buffy turned to me shocked, as did Xander, Willow, Jesse and the Fem!Vamp
"See what happens when you mess with a witches best friend" I glared and set my hands on fire
"He was young and stupid!" The Vampire snarled
"Xander, Cissa, go!" Buffy called
"Don't go far!" The Vampire called mockingly Buffy and the Vampire stared to fight, while Xander I moved over to help Jesse and Willow.
We got them outside and we began to run, Buffy could handle herself, Willow and Jesse couldn't. "We'll get the police, it's just a few blocks up!" Willow said. I was just about to heal Jesse's Bite when a group of Vamps appear. I stepped in front of the trio and growled. The group surrounded us and I saw the blonde Vamp with them.
