"I have drawn up a simple plan for your training." Giles explained to
Buffy, Spike and Thea. Buffy nodded, signalling for him to go on. "Spike,
you will train Thea in basic self-defence and fighting techniques." Thea
looked up at her daddy and grinned. "Buffy, I will be teaching you Latin."
Buffy frowned.
"Why do I need to learn Latin? She grumbled. "I hate languages."
"You will eventually need to learn ever language spoken on earth and some major demon's native language. So we might as well start now." Giles raised an eyebrow. Buffy pouted. "There's no use pouting, you'll need to be able to communicate with anyone and everyone you meet."

Tears dribbled down Buffy's cheeks as she hugged her friend's goodbye. Twenty years had past since the day when she had been up-graded from Slayer to Immortal. She knew this would be the last time she would ever see them all together again.
From looking at her you would think that only a day had passed. She still looked like a 20-year-old girl, Spike still looked like he did that day and Thea still looked six.
Her friends and Mom had all changed. Anya and Xander were married and had twin girls, Alexandria and Sophie, who were now seventeen. Dawn was married to a young warlock, Bailey, and had a ten-year-old son, Will. Willow and Tara were still together and Joyce and Giles were enjoying their retirement.
The three Immortal's had done a fantastic job protecting Sunnydale; so good that the vampire's and demons scarcely dared to come by anymore. This was their signal to leave. They had done their job and needed to move on to a new place. They were off to England as soon as they'd paid one last visit to an old friend.
I'm really sorry this was such a short chapter but I wanted it separate from the stuff just before and just after it.
