Giles shook his head as he picked up the books that were all over the library floor. He groaned inwardly, but was careful not to make any real sound.
The reason he wanted to be quiet was that Inu-Yasha seemed to be asleep, and if he stayed that way, life would be better for Giles. Inu-Yasha had climbed on top of one of the higher shelves, and was leaning against the wall up there, eyes closed.
Giles turned his back to Inu-Yasha, leaning over to grab another book. Inu- Yasha's eye opened a slit, and he smirked to himself.
CRASH!
Giles started and looked back around, to see that Inu-Yasha had just tipped over the shelf next to the one he had been "sleeping" on. Inu-Yasha himself was laughing openly at Giles.
"You!" said an angry Giles. "Stop that!"
"*Feh,*" said Inu-Yasha.

Buffy walked down the hall. Today was a good day. There hadn't been any demon attacks on anything, and Giles was dealing with Inu-Yasha. She turned and pushed open the door to the library, but gasped and stopped dead in her tracks at what she saw.
The floor of the entire library was littered with books, and several shelves were knocked over. One of the few shelves that remained standing with all its books caught her attention. Inu-Yasha was perched on top of it, and Giles was throwing everything within reach at him.
Buffy held back a laugh, and coughed. Both of the fighters stopped what they were doing and stared at her, suddenly aware of what they had done. Giles looked worried, and Inu-Yasha snorted with laughter.
Giles regained his composure. "Ah. Buffy," he said, sounding just about how he looked. "Uh.was there something you needed?"
"I was just going to tell you I'm going home, and ask if there was any problem.but it looks like you're handling things just fine."
Giles's mouth opened and shut several times without a sound. Inu-Yasha took the opportunity to jump on top of the book cage.
"Actually, I wanted you to go on patrol tonight," Giles finally managed to say. "I know it's been quiet lately, but that's all the more reason to be on the alert."
Suddenly, the phone rang, causing Inu-Yasha to jump. Giles picked it up.
"Oh, hello. You got my message?.yes.all right.really? That's too bad," he said, and bit his lip. After a bit, he hung up.
Buffy looked expectantly at her Watcher.
"I called an acquaintance of mine earlier.I had hoped he could translate, but he says he's going to be on a very important trip for the next few weeks. He recommended that we just find a Japanese-to-English dictionary," Giles said.
Buffy rolled her eyes. "Oh, yeah, and those are just the easiest book to come by."
#############################################
Buffy hunted through the bookstore, grumbling to herself about stupid demons and why can't they just learn English?
To her surprise, she actually found a single English to Japanese/Japanese to English dictionary. She smiled. Today really was a good day.
##############################################
Giles continued the uphill battle of trying to clean up the library. It was a hopeless mess, but at least it wouldn't be getting any worse any more.
Inu-Yasha started on his third cup of ramen in ten minutes, either oblivious to the fact that he'd been locked in the book cage, or just not caring.
####################################################
Buffy whistled as she walked across the school grounds. It was getting to be dusk already, but she'd gone home and told her mother that she was going out for a while, so it wasn't like she had to go home very soon. She swung the plastic bag in her hand that held the dictionary.
When she arrived in the library, she was greeted with a much more orderly sight than earlier. The books were put in piles, and the shelves had been righted. Inu-Yasha sulked in the book cage, and Giles reclined in a chair.
Buffy smiled. "I see you've been having fun. Here."
She handed Giles the book. He looked at it and sighed. More work.

Buffy wandered through the graveyard, stake in hand, just as she had since she had started fighting the forces of darkness and all that. It was another quiet night. It was kind of nice not having to deal with all the regular vampires, but it worried her. Things were never this easy in Sunnydale.
A rustling off to her right caught her attention. Stepping cautiously in the direction it had come from, she held up her stake.
"Hello? Anyone there?" she called softly. She was answered by a deep laughter that seemed to come from everywhere and nowhere, and she took a step back, actually a bit frightened.
Without warning, dark figures sprung at her from all directions. She ducked, and most of them collided over her head, but she was hit by their legs, and a few of their fellows who had had the sense to wait a moment and adjust to her movement. She was knocked down, and her breath was knocked out of her.
Gasping, she fought to get up before the majority of them could get at her. She succeeded in dislodging several of her attackers, one of whom had the misfortune to land on a half-buried tree branch that jutted up through his heart for a moment before he exploded into a cloud of dust.
Buffy's spirits rose. They were just vampires! They were still a threat, since there were so many of them, but she had a good chance against them.
She kicked several away, and staked one who came too close. With two of them now dust, the remaining vampires backed off and formed a circle around Buffy.
A quick count told Buffy that there were only five of them. Taking the initiative, she lunged at the ones in front of her, and managed to stake another. These were obviously not very experienced vampires.
She looked around, aware of a sudden change. The four vampires that were left were standing in place, eyes turned to the sky. They swayed back and forth slightly, as if in a trance.
Buffy stared, bewildered. Vampires could be weird sometimes, but this was just plain off. As she watched, their yellow eyes glowed, and their fangs lengthened. They became nearly unrecognizable as anything that had once been human, as their faces contorted into those of monsters.
Buffy stared for a moment, but caught herself, and stepped forward, staking two while they were still transforming. The other two snarled and snapped at her, but she drove in to try to kill them too. They dodged quickly aside, and, moving as if they were of one mind, drove in to hit Buffy while she was vulnerable. She instinctively dropped to the ground, and struck out with her fists at the ankles of the one nearer to her. She succeeded in bringing the thing down, and drove a stake between its ribs to its heart.
The final creature that had once been a vampire backed away. It twitched as if called by some unheard voice, and turned and ran.
Buffy leapt up and gave chase, but the creature easily eluded her, disappearing into the night.
