Enter Des

By: Burning Truth

Disclaimer: you know the drill! I don't own...except Des. If you want to use him (for god knows what reason) Just ask, if I'm feeling nice I'll say no, and if I'm not I'll laugh in your face hysterically. (I hope you know that's a joke, I would let you borrow him)

~*~Des' POV~*~

I laid back on the couch. And thought.

iyou know you didn't kiss Xander/i

...I am so not under any circumstances kissing Xander, so why don't you, little voice in my head, just return from the little hole from whence you came?

i'Cause what kinda consience would I be if I did that? /i

Well it didn't seem to bother you untill now...god What would Giles say if he knew I was talking to my self?...Oh! My! God!

"Giles!" I yelled, previous train of thought meet brick wall.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Yes but we need an item of his for the locator spell to work. Other wise it would take immense amounts of power." Tara explained to Des.

"Well...how immense is immense?" Des questioned. After he yelled, everyone in the house hold had come running down. When he explained the fact that Giles was still missing. Buffy called Willow. And Dawn called spike (behind Buffy's back of course). After that they had decided on calling Anya too, after all, they needed all the help they could get.

"Enough to lift 3 tons." I cringed. I looked at Dawn, she seemed as worried as I was...then her face brightened as her line of sight shifted. I followed it...Giles' Glasses!

"Tara his glasses!" Dawn said pointing, apparently too excited to say anything else. Willow quickly picked them up. If all went well Giles should be back soon.

~*~Giles' POV~*~

It's dank, It's dreary, and it smells horribly putrid. For the love of god, I'd rather watch Passions with Spike again than be stuck here. What ever the hing that nocked me out was, he couldn't care less what happened to me. He locked me in here and has never come back, no food, no nothing. Apparently something complicated, because if I was being used as bait, he'd at least try and keep me alive. I looked at my watch... 10:00 pm. Great! I've been stuck here for what? A day? I heard the door creak and look up. Apparently I was wrong. He /It/She's here to feed me...I think...

"Giles?" Buffy?

"G-man you down there?" Xander?

"You better be here, because I am so not getting dirty for no pint!" Anya. "What?!? Well it's the truth!...Fine! Be that way! I'll just watch!" Yes that is undoubtedly Anya.

"Yes, Down here! That what ever it was, threw me down here!"

"You don't know what it was?" Buffy asked curiously.

"Well I never even saw it. It knocked me out from behind, tossed me here, and hasn't been back since." I watched them file down. Buffy, Xander, Tara, Willow, and even Spike, Dawn and Des were here. Buffy looked around the stair case. At the bottom it had been boarded up and on the sides was a wire mesh wich was electrified. Apparently Buffy suspected something.

"Why haven't you gotten out yet? Something wrong?"

"The mesh is electrified and I cant seem to break down the wood." Spike scoffed and walked over to the bottom and placed a solid punch on the wood...there was a carckle. Had he broken it?

"Bloody hell! I think I broke my knuckles on that damned thing!" No. Des then quietly mumbled to the rest of the group who quickly stepped behind him. He then flicked his wrist, and the barricade splintered into many thousand little pieces. I was about to open my mouth when he spoke...though something was off...

"Yeah, we know, research." With that he turned around and stalked off.

A/N: Hee-hee...I think I'll wait a while before the next chappie!
