Spike slowly turned around afraid of what he had heard, only one person called him that, it was Riley, Buffy was shocked when she saw Riley standing there.
"Uh..Riley" Buffy choked out.
"Hello Buffy, how are you?" Riley said watching Spike out of the corner of his eye.
"Im fine...why are you in Sunnydale" Buffy blurted out.
Riley laughed at her impatientence, he remembered how she had been that way before. "I am on a mission, actually the inaitive mostly broke apart for a while, so I went back home, and I got the calling again, and I was sent to the hellmouth on a mission, actually I dont know the mission yet, that is where I was heading actually to the iniative frat house. oh, forgive me, Hello Giles, Willow, Dawn, and I know none of you. the rest of you, well the humans." Riley said smiling. "And Wots that mean?" Spike asked facing him. "I was kidding Spike, Hello" Riley replied. "Well Riley this is Malcom and that is Oz, and you forgot Anya" Dawn said.
"Oh..I am sorry. Hello Anya. Hello Dawn. Hello Malcom. Hello Oz. How are you? I hope everyone is alright." Riley said as he smiled towards Buffy.
"So, Riley how long are you in Sunnydale?" Buffy nervously asked. She looked from Willow and Oz, to Xander and Anya then from them to Giles.
"Oh..A awhile I mean atleast until my mission is finished. Why?" Riley asked being himself.
"Well We have a deamon or monster of some sort on our hands and we need all the help we can get." Buffy blurted out, acting as though it were a mistake.
"Well I'd Love to help! You know that Buffy! Anything to rid the world of evil....you know...'cause that is my job and all." Riley replied feeling sheepish all of a sudden. It wasn't like him to be shy around Buffy, Giles and the rest of the scoobies.
"HEY B!" A familiar voice said. Slowly Buffy turned around to face someone that she thought she would never have to see again.
