"We're trying to discuss the plan." Buffy explained stepping between the two men. "The Hell mouth is opening again so we figured that the original Scoobies who were there the first two times should go there."

"Great Plan Luv, only Anya and I know a lot more about the new school then Peaches or Cheerleader, remember me living in the basement? Besides the Watcher has been in England for a while now, sure he is up for this kind of action. Not to mention, what am I supposed to do sitting around with the Angel Investigation lot?"

"Spike, this isn't a discussion. We were there; you were off snuggling with Dru. Besides, he is with Cordy, and Cordy will be watching me like a hawk, so you do not have anything to worry about. Besides we have a mission for all of you, and since you and Anya know the town, you can help."

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

"We have to find what," Gunn asked.

"The Star of Venionomos." Willow explained. "It, with the spell I found, is the only way to stop the Hell mouth from ever opening again."

"So where is it?" Spike asked. "If we find it fast enough maybe we can stop the Hell mouth from opening this bloody time."

"It is rumored to be in the possession of an ancient order of monks." Wesley added. "Quite prestigious order actually, they guard artifacts going back to 600 B.C."

"I don't like monks." Anya added. "I want to stay with Giles. We can slip away and have sex."

"Okay well anyway." Buffy shook her head. "My group, we should probably get going Cordy's and my vision wasn't exactly telling us the time."

Spike glared as Buffy and Angel headed out followed by Willow, Xander, and Faith. Giles still blushing was saying goodbye to Anya and Cordy handed Connor to Fred before they also left.

"And then there were seven" Spike quoted. "Come on let's find these bloody monks and kick their bloody asses until they give us the bloody Star."

"He likes to say 'bloody' a lot" Fred whispered to Gunn, "Is that a Vampire thing or just a British thing, because neither Angel or Wes say it?"

Gunn shrugged. "Maybe you have to be both."
