Buffy got home around midnight. She had killed 6 vamps the whole night. She couldn't stop thinking about that guy. Who was he? And what did he mean a friend? He was totally hot that was for sure.
She climbed into her window with out making a sound.
"Have fun?" Her dad asked sitting on her bed. His arms crossed.
She was in trouble now. Her parents hated her coming in late all the time. But girls got to do what girls got to do.
"I know it's late, I'm sorry I just got sidetracked and forgot to call." She said throwing her stake out the window.
"Ohh I see, your grounded." He said to her
"But dad! I can't be grounded, you don't understand-"She tried to explain but he cut her off.
"No I think I do understand. This is exactly the kind of thing that we moved here for. You need to learn responsibility." Her dad said
"But dad, it's not even that late. I have to go, you just -"she tried again
"No Buffy, your grades have fallen and all you do is stay out all night." He said
"For how long?" She asked knowing it was no use.
"A week. And do this again and it will be a month." He said and left her room.
She walked over to boxes and took out some clothes. Damn it. God if they only knew. She had a responsibility alright. And she knew she had to do it. She went into her bath room and looking in the mirror. She felt a tear coming down her face.
If only they knew.
**********************************************
Spike saw everything that had happened with Buffy and her dad. He felt bad. So young it wasn't fair. But then he was the expert on life not being fair.

Buffy went downstairs, she looked at her parents.
"Do you want me to make you anything?" Her mom asked
"No." Buffy said and left the house
When she got to school she headed towards the library to meet Giles.
Buffy walked through the doors to find Willow, Xander, Cordelia and Gunn waiting for her.
"Hey there Buffy." Xander said looking happy.
"Hey, what's going on?" She asked
"Buffy, hello glad you here, how was slaying?" Giles asked her casually
"Umm, what? Giles?" She asked looking over at the others.
"Ohh don't worry Buffy, we know you're the slayer." Willow said smiling.
"Yeah and about time you're here too." Cordelia said. "Do you know what we had to do I mean-"
"She's just glad you're here." Gunn said cutting her off.
"So you guys.like know about this stuff." Buffy asked surprised
"Well I know a few things I get chased by vamps all the time." Xander said "I think it's a total of 3 this month.
"4" Willow said raising her hand
"2" Gunn said
"8" Cordelia said looking embarrassed. Everyone was looking at her "What?"
"Alright then, why don't you tell us what happened last night." Giles said
"OK, so like I killed 6 vamps, they were all pretty easy and I met this guy." Buffy said
"Guy?" Willow asked
"Yeah, blond, British accent, gorgeous." Buffy finished
"Ahh Captain Peroxide strikes again." Xander said sarcastically.
"You know him?" Buffy asked a little excited. She wanted to know about this mystery man.
"Yeah, his name is Spike. He sort of took care of all the demons and vamps before you came here" Gunn said
So Spike, that's his name. Hot
"Yeah, he's a good vampire." Cordelia said
"Wait. what? He's a vampire?" Buffy asked shocked more this time. That's not good slayer kills vampire.
"He has his soul." Giles said
"Vampires don't have souls" Buffy told him. She knew that all to well.
"Spike does. He was known as William the Bloody. He killed 2 slayers in his time. But about 40 years ago something happened no one knows what and he got his soul back. He works with the council." Giles finished.
"Oh" Buffy said
"Yeah, he's totally cool." Cordelia said Xander gave her a look.
"Then you're on patrol tonight with Gunn." Giles said Buffy looked over at Gunn
"Don't worry I can handle my self. I mean I don't have any super strength but I've been known to stake a few in my day." Gunn said
"Oh ok, then. Yeah im definitely up for slaying." Buffy said. She knew she was grounded but she had more important things to do. Like keep people form being bitten.
*********************************************
The day went by pretty well. Buffy had most of the gang in all her classes and they made her fit in right away, which she was very grateful about.
After school they had all stopped by at the library. Xander and Cordelia went home while the rest of them stayed there. Willow was helping Giles out with some books and setting up what Giles referred to as "the big boxes with information" He didn't really like computers.
Gunn and Buffy were doing their homework until sun down and then they would be off patrolling.
Gunn and Buffy were in the cemetery. The had killed 32 vamps so far that night.
"So what's up with this Spike guy?" Buffy asked casually only she had been dying to ask Gunn all night
"Well he's ok I guess. For a vampire." Gunn said
"Did you patrol with him?" she asked
"Sometimes. Like this teem this vamp gang came to town. Spike couldn't handle all of them so me and Xander and Giles helped out."
"So you guys were doing pretty well without a slayer." Buffy said. A little sad. What was the point of her coming here then?
"NO, are you kidding me. We were all dying for you to come. It was hard and so many people have died already." Gunn said and stopped to look at her.
"I don't know how much longer Sunnydale could have lasted" He said Buffy smiled. She was here to help.
"You know what Gunn, how about you call it a night. I can do the rest." She told him
"No, I couldn't do that." He said
"Hey come on I'm the slayer. This is what I do." She said
"You sure?" He asked
"Yes, very sure. Now go." She said
"Ok, be careful." He said and headed home.
This is what my life has come to. All alone in a cemetery waiting for vamps to come out and try to kill me. And right at that moment a vamp jumped out form behind her.
She was surprised but managed to flip the guy over. He was fast and got up. He ran into her knocking her over. She got up and kicked him hard in the stomach. He sort of fell over but was up again. This guy was good. He punched her and then kicked her to the ground. He went on top of her and was about to bite her. The someone pulled him from on top of her and next thing Buffy knows he's dust.
"Isn't it past you bed time slayer?" Spike asked
