Recap: Last Scooby Gang chapter, Tara told Willow that Giles might be looking to kill Buffy! Ooh!
"I'm sorry, Will, I don't know. I don't think he could, but." said Tara. "Oh God. I just can't imagine Giles killing someone. Especially not Buffy, even if she did kill his kid." "I know."
Suddenly, Spike ran into the room holding the tracker, closely followed by Anya and Giles. "Willow, I think it works!" said Anya excitedly, "We a scarping of Giles' skin on it and it showed everywhere that he's been going!"
Willow jumped up, forgetting for a moment the conversation that she and Tara had been having. "Really? That's great! We've got so much to do, I'll go and book the plane tickets."
Spike put a hand on her shoulder, stopping her. "Pet, we don't know where she is. How do you know where to book the tickets to?" "Well, erm."she stammered, "I kinda used magic." "WHAT?!? Willow, you know vampires shouldn't use magic! It always backfires!" "I know Spike, I'm sorry, but that was the only way. We're going to San Francisco."

So?!? What didya think? Before ya say anything, as a special treat, here's another chapter!

A loud noise awoke her. Slowly, Buffy opened her eyes. "Go away." she mumbled, "You're giving me a headache." The noise came again, this time accompanied by a voice. "Hello? Are you ok in there? You'll probably need to start getting your stuff together, we'll be there soon." *Oh. Just the cabin boy.* "Oh, ok, thanks."
Slowly, Buffy stood up. Her left arm stung, and she saw a deep gash in it. The blood was dried around it. Buffy went to the sink in the corner of the room and started to wash it. "So, what happened this time?" She asked her reflection. "Or don't I want to know?"
Suddenly, the images flooded back to her. Her *friends* attacking her. Her hitting them. Their bodies. But this time, Buffy felt no remorse. After all, it wasn't real, was it? And it wasn't her fault either. They had attacked her first.
Buffy grabbed her duffel bag and headed out of her cabin door. The night air was cool on her face. She walked down the road and towards the bar over the street. IT was seedy, grey and filled with ugly looking drunk guys. There was no name on the door. As she walked in, the first thing that hit her was the smell. A very familiar smell. Dried blood?
There were stains of it on the floor. Unbothered, Buffy walked up to the bar and ordered a drink. It was thick, green, and had a slight taste of mint. *Disgusting*
Buffy put it down and stood up to go to the bathroom. She wobbled her way towards a door, almost falling over. *That must've been some strong stuff*
Shaking her head to clear it, Buffy opened the door. "Hi Buffy." Said her sister.
