Faith, Buffy and Willow were browsing around the stacks while Xander, Oz,
Cordelia and Giles were sitting down at the table going through piles of
old books. Xander closed one of the books and sneezed on the dust, "God I
hate old books."
"We know," Cordelia said plainly while turning the page of the book in front of her, "We have nothing else to do so Giles wants us to look in these books."
Willow came down the stairs over to the table, "Nothing good up there except very old Stephen King novels. Some of them are good.the movies are better." She sat down next to Oz, "Find anything yet?"
Oz shook his head, "Only the stuff we know about and the demons Buffy and Faith have already faced. Nothing good here."
Faith was reading a big book on the floor when Buffy came over to her. Buffy glanced over Faith's shoulder, "What are you reading?"
"This book on tall tales, fables, fairy tales and other children related things. Can't believe Giles actually has a book on this in a high school library," Faith laughed as she flipped the pages.
Buffy laughed a little, "Those are old. You like those things?"
"Oh yeah, I loved them as a child. My cousin would always tell me urban legends and myths about weird and evil things and I actually believed it. He would always find ways to scare me but eventually I didn't. I liked them, some were funny and some were pretty strange," Faith said closing the book and holding it in her lap, "Wanna head back down?"
"Sure," Buffy said as she walked down to the table with Faith. Faith placed the book on the front desk and went over to the others. Xander had finished going through another book and took one off the pile. Cordelia groaned, "This is very boring! Can we please do something that is not related to books or a library.no offense Giles."
"None taken," Giles said walking to his office. Xander turned to face Cordelia, "You know, there is a thing you can do. You can go out and get us all dinner or we can keep you here and you can help me whittle stakes."
Cordelia widened her eyes, "Whittle stakes? Again? You're crazy! The last time we did that, I ended up with a dozen splinters and cramps in both of my hands. I am NOT gonna do that again."
"Then get dinner. It's your choice," Xander said glancing back at the book he was reading. Cordelia gave a long sigh then got up and walked out through the doors. Buffy looked at Xander, "Nice one."
Xander smiled at her. Buffy gazed up at the clock on the wall then nudged Faith to go.
