Chapter 2
"Don't you vampires ever give up." Buffy Summers said. If you saw her you would think she was just a normal girl, but she's really the Slayer, Chosen to fight vampires, demons, and the forces of darkness.
"I'll kill you!" The vampire growled at her. Buffy rolled her eyes.
"That's what you all say. To be honest, I'm kinda tired of hearing it." With that she pulled out her stake and stabbed him in the heart before he even realized what happened. He exploded in a cloud of dust and she brushed herself off. "Never get tired of that." She said as she walked away. The next day Buffy went to The Magic Box that her Watcher, Giles owned.
"How was patrol last night?" Giles asked her.
"You know same as always. It's been pretty boring lately though, I mean I've hardly seen any vampires in the last few days, like maybe something else is going on." Buffy told him.
"I got something for you Buff." Xander told her. "How about a 14-year-old girl that disappeared last night in the cemetery." Buffy looked at him.
"What are you talking about? I didn't see anything." Buffy said.
"Must have been a different cemetery, it was all over the news this morning. Some girl named Lisa vanished last night. There was also a mention of her getting sucked into a portal, but I don't think they really believe that, probably think it's just a kidnapping." Xander said.
"Okay, how did they even get the idea that it could have been a portal?" Buffy asked.
"Well, her friend was with her when it happened, claimed she saw a portal suck Lisa in, everyone pretty much just thinks she's delirious. Poor kid is really freaked out and Lisa's parents are devastated." Xander claimed.
"Well, this being Sunnydale and all I'm gonna believe that whole portal thing. Wonder if the kid was taken to some alternate dimension, she must really be scared." Buffy said upset. "Did you find out anything else?" She asked Xander.
"Well, I don't know about that whole alternate dimension thing, but I did hear about other missing kids. Just so happens that three kids around the same age as Lisa disappeared in L.A. about a week ago. They think that it could be from the same thing, but no one in L.A. has reported about seeing any portals." Buffy nodded.
"Okay, maybe I'll call Angel; see if he knows anything about any of this." Dawn came next to her sister after she heard everything.
"The girl that disappeared, was her name Lisa Sheldon?" She asked. Xander thought about it.
"I don't remember, but that could be it." Buffy looked at her sister.
"Why do you ask?" Dawn looked at Buffy.
"There's this girl named Lisa Sheldon in one of my classes, and she wasn't in school today." Xander nodded.
"Sheldon, yeah I think that was it." Xander said.
"Also, her friend Emily Thomas wasn't in school today either, so she must have been the one to see what happened." Dawn told them. "I know where she lives. I could go talk to her to find out more about what happened." Buffy agreed.
"I'm gonna call Angel first, then I'll go with you to Emily's house so we can talk to her." She said looking at Dawn. Buffy went to use the phone in the back to call Angel. When she got back to the others she didn't look happy. "Well, looks like portals are involved and Angel knows a lot more about what has been happening than we do. He said that a 13-year-old boy disappeared about two days ago. That was the most recent disappearance. He's looking into it and said he would call if he found out anything else." Buffy looked at Dawn. "Come on; let's go talk to your friend." Dawn nodded and they left the magic shop.
