*still in the restaurant*
"you have to pull yourself together, what is going on" Buffy said a little irritated.
The small man pulled himself together and wiped the tears from his face slowly. He cleared his throat, preparing himself to do some explaining.
"I was born this way, my parents were both human, I know they didn't love me very much because they made me live in the basement. They only came down to give me food, and then they would run really fast so they wouldn't see me turn into a... demon" The small man began to weep once again.
Buffy frowned, her plan hadn't gone exactly has planned. The small man sat down on the floor with his head in his hands and continued weeping nonstop.
"You still haven't told me why you turn into a demon" Buffy tried her best to sound angry, this was a demon she was dealing with, she couldn't keep treating him like a person. Buffy found it difficult to be aggressive with this demon/man.
"Kids would call me names at school!" the small man confessed while weeping still not giving Buffy the information she needed. "Teacher's would call me do their office if I had, well you know "changed" at recess and scared the children, I don't know why it happens! I am just cursed, my life is cursed". The demon spit out these words as fast as he could then he resumed to continuous sobbing.
Buffy soon realized that she was getting no where with this guy and the only thing she seemed to have done is upset him. She stood there for a few good long minutes, when suddenly the small man freaked out.
"You have to go" cried the little man desperately "It's happening, you have to go"
"It's all right" said Buffy calmly "I've already seen you in your demon form, and I am sure I could take you if you attacked me"
"You don't understand" the small man sounded as though he was in a good amount of pain "It's not a matter of strength, If you want to live I suggest you leave now!" He lead Buffy to the door and this time he gave her a hard shove out the door and then slammed it. He quickly scurried away.

*at the magic shop*

"Did you guys find anything out" Buffy asked while walking into the magic shop.
"I found out that people buy more things when you are nice to them" said Anya happily "Xander has been giving me some lessons"
"That's how you guys are spending your time?" Buffy snarled,"teaching Anya things, that could take years out of your research time!"
"Hey!" said Anya "I'm not buying anything from you!"
"What did you find out?" asked Giles curiously.
"Well umm, he said strength didn't matter that he could still harm me even if I could easily fight him, otherwise our time together wasn't very productive." Buffy explained
"I've found somethin Willow cried out excitedly!
"There is a demon that looks like the one we saw in the window. IT says here "transformation demon, can change forms uncontrollably in various intervals, they can sense it coming only 2 minutes ahead of time" Willow continued reading fascinated "they are harmless in human form but they can take away your soul when they are in demon form"
"Your soul?" Buffy asked peering over Willow's shoulder.
"Yes" replied Willow "He automatically will suck out part of your soul, the more souls he receives the less times he will change into a demon!"
"so he pretty much makes you crazy" Xander added.
"yeah something like that he'll make you weak at least, but if he takes too much of someone's soul than they will become like him ... part demon" Willow looked fascinated. Buffy looked worried.
