chapter 2.


*still in the magic shop*

"Oh my goodness" Buffy said startled
"What is it?" asked willow curiously approaching Buffy who was starting across the street in complete shock.
The rest of the gang came to Buffy's side to see what was going on.
"Across the street! In the new restaurant" Willow pointed out.
A startled and surprised looked came across everyone in the gang.
"Wow that is one of the more ugly demons!" Anya said in a calm voice.
"That's the person who interviewed me for the restaurant job" Buffy stated finally coming out of her shock.
"I would hardly call that a person" Giles said bluntly. "Buffy you said that you found that place strange but you failed to mention that you were interviewed by a demon!"
"Don't blame her!" said Xander clearly trying to make some sort of joke "It's hard to remember ALL the details"
"He's not a demon, I mean he wasn't when he interviewed me, he wasn't pretty but definetely no demon!"
"That's odd" said Giles looking confused "He must have gone though some sort of reformation, fascinating really"
"Well there goes my job! I am going to go over there and kill that thing right now." said Buffy angrily.
Buffy, looking determined stepped away from the window and went to get some weapons.
"Buffy don't you think your being rather rash?" said Giles "Not all demons are evil, further more you don't know how to kill it, who knows what kind of abilities it has, we must approach this cautiously."
"You're righ said Buffy "You guys are on research mode all right? Find out what kind of demon I am dealing with and most importantly, how to kill it. Anya come with me."
"Why do you need me?" asked Anya
"Because you've dealt with demons before, I could use your help"
"She could use MY help" Anya whispered to the rest of the gang in excitement "What do I have to do?"
"You can come with me, I am going to confront the demon."
"I can't come I don't want to die, you people can die and I don't know what happens after that"
"Fine" Buffy said angrily and stormed out the door.
"Buffy wait" Giles cried out but Buffy had already left "what is wrong with Buffy, she is being terribly unreasonable!" Giles said in a huff.
"Demon business has been slow lately, I think she is just a little over excited" Willow explained.

* * * * * * *

Buffy entered the restaurant where she had been interviewed. She was much more confident this time.
"Hello" yelled Buffy "Come out, come out wherever you are"
"One minute" yelled the short demon/man in a huff "I'll be right with you!"
It wasn't 5 seconds before the short man that she had met before came running to greet her.
"Hello" the man chirped "it's you again! How can I help you young lady?"
"Don't play games with me" said Buffy accusingly "I know what you really are, I know that your an ugly demon so you might as well stop hiding it!"
To Buffy's surprised the small man had a shocked expression on his fast and then he began to weep openly.
"I just wanted to run a business" the demon cried "I didn't want you to see me has this horrible, (sob, sob) horrible demon" the small man began to weep uncontrollably
Buffy found herself comforting the demon for several minutes before beginning her interrogation.
