SetsunaFanGirl: I'm glad you like it. I did think of making Willow and tara Haruke and Michiru, but then I decided that they really fit the roles of the  "guardian scouts" better, PLUS I wanted to have a bit of irreverent fun with Uranus and Neptune. And Yes, Spike has indeed become Sailor Saturn.

Editcat: *G* I certainly hope it gets better.

KatBlue4444: 1. Because its funny if they're girls. 2. Because, in a more serious answer, Sailor Moon has four inner guardians. It would make sense that Xander would be one of the Inner Scouts. And Spike, being undead, would be gothic like Sailor Saturn sort of was. Plus Saturn's powers can end the world. And I used the Japanese names because I'm a geek and the fact that if I use the American Dub names, people might think that Uranus and Neptune are cousins, which they aren't.

But seems how some people might be confused here is a list to keep things straight:

Japanese Name- American Name – Hero Name

Usagi – Serena – Sailor Moon

Mamoru – Darien – Tuxedo Kamen (Mask in the US)

Makoto – Lita – Sailor Jupiter

Minako – Mina – Sailor Venus

Rei – Ray – Sailor Mars

Ami – Amy – Sailor Mercury

Haruka - Amara   - Sailor Uranus

Michiru - Michelle – Sailor Neptune

Setsuna – Trista – Sailor Pluto

Hotaru – Hotaru – Sailor Saturn

Chibi Usa – Rini – Sailor Chibi Moon (or Mini Moon in the US)

Variations on names indicate a sort of pet name. AND for anyone who has only seen the dub, Uranus and Neptune are not cousins in the originals. They are lovers. Just so you know as I will probably do something with this later.

I'm going to mostly refer to characters by their Buffy names anyway though, so it doesn't really matter all that much.

Whew, after all of that, here is the next, albeit short, chapter. The rest of the senshi will show up in the next chapter. I promise.

Buffy glared at her little sister, "You did not say what I think you just said."

"Actually, I'm kind of hoping she did," Spike said with glee.

Dawn looked at her sister, "Look, I didn't write the story and I'm pretty sure I'm not the one who called down the demon boy's wrath."

"Umm, demon girl, actually, pet," Spike corrected.

Buffy glanced over at him, "Demon girl?"

"What? Our lot can't be into Equal Opportunity Employment?" Spike looked offended.

Buffy frowned, "Say, Spike, what would one of these demons look like?"

"Oh, Big, Brown, Blobby with a Bit of Blue on its tail. Could we go back to the part about you locking lips with Rupert?"

Buffy slapped her hand against her forehead, "I got into a fight with that thing last night."

Spike grinned, "You caused this? Aside from the whole skirt thing, this is turning out to be my lucky day. Harris is in drag. I can tip toe through the tulips in daylight, and it's all the slayer's fault."

Buffy glared at Spike, "That is so it," she said as she stepped menacingly towards him.

Spike backed up a couple of paces not knowing if the sudden transformations had mitigated the effects of the chip that was in his brain. He was about to run for it when he was suddenly face with Buffy in a very short ruffled skirt. Spike eyed her up and down, then proceeded to burst out laughing.

"What?" Buffy asked before she realized that there was a breeze where there hadn't been a breeze earlier.

"I am so NOT in a miniskirt and red boots," Buffy moaned as she glanced down at herself.

She turned and looked at her sister, "What kind of a series is this?"

Dawn shrugged in her typically teenage way, "Be glad you didn't chuck the X-Men at it. You'd be running around in spandex that strategically rips every ten seconds."

Before Buffy could retort, Spike let out a low whistle, "You have a great pair of thighs, Slayer."

Angered, Buffy reached for her stake so she could properly threaten Spike only to find herself shaking a rather ornate and PINK rod at him. As Spike again dissolved into laughter, Buffy again turned to look at Dawn.

Dawn sighed and began before Buffy could ask, "It's your scepter. You and, umm Giles, created it out of your powers."

Spike forced himself to stop laughing long enough to spout off the witty comment, "It's a bloody token of your LOVE?" After which, he began to laugh even more heartily.

Buffy glared at him, "Is it healthy for the undead to laugh that much? It kind of ruins your morbidly cool angle."

Spike snorted and composed himself back into his normal diffident stance.

Buffy sighed as she look down at her skirt again, "How do I undo this?"

Dawn shrugged, "I'm not really sure. It isn't exactly something you put in a comic when you're trying to entertain people. Just try willing it away."

"What do you think I'm doing?" Buffy snapped back.

Spike whistled tunelessly into the air, "Well, if would want the advice of someone who's been in this position…"

"Spike, just tell me, or I'm going to beat you with my pink heart rod thingy."

Spike sighed, "You people are no fun at all. Fine then. You just need to calm down a bit and sort of imagine yourself in normal clothes."

"You want me to calm DOWN?" Buffy shrieked.

Spike winced and covered his ears as did Dawn. Buffy herself looked surprised.

Dawn tapped Buffy on her back, "You might want to not try to whine too much. You kind of have super powered vocal cords."

Buffy sighed, "Maybe we should settle down and tell us what we need to know."

`````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````

Two hours later, Buffy was staring at Giles's front door. Dawn stood impatiently behind her.

"Just knock, Buffy. He isn't going to molest you," she whined.

Buffy nodded but still stood where she was. Exasperated, Dawn reached around her sister and knocked on the door. Seconds later, Giles opened the door. His lips quirked into a tiny smile as his gaze fell on Buffy.

"Hey, Giles," Buffy said uncertainly.

"Hello, Usako. Did you come to see me?" Giles responded.

Buffy started at him, "Umm, yeah I, uh, came to see you. You know me, Miss wants-to-see-her-boyfriend."

This earned her a small, yet endearing smile as Giles motioned for her to come in. Dawn gave Buffy a little shove to get her to move through the door.

"Ah, would you two like some hot chocolate?" He asked as Dawn and Buffy settled onto his couch.

Buffy mechanically nodded as Dawn gave an annoyingly enthusiastic "yes." When Giles went into the kitchen, Dawn poked Buffy in the arm.

"What is wrong with you?"

Buffy looked incredulously at her sister, "What's wrong with me? I'm pretending to be my watcher's girlfriend. Giles is offering us Hot chocolate instead of complaining about my lack of appreciation for tea, and his apartment is insanely neat. Do you see it? He doesn't even have any books laying around."

"Buffy, we need to gather information. Now I'm going to try to grab some books, and I need you to distract Giles, so do it" Dawn whispered furiously before Giles came back.

Buffy eyed the large plate of cookies he brought with skeptically.

Dawn bounced off of Giles's couch and grabbed a cookie and a cup of coco, "Hey, Mamo-chan, can I look around your apartment?" She said with big puppy dog eyes.

A patient smile crossed his lips and he nodded, "Just be careful, Chibi Usa."

Buffy grit her teeth as her sister abandoned her to be alone with her menacing watcher who was eerily watching her with adoring eyes. Giles seated himself next to her on the couch. Seconds passed. Buffy munched morosely on her cookie. She took a sip of coco. Giles took a sip of tea. More second passed. Buffy heard a window creak open. Giles took another sip of tea. Buffy heard a muffled curse as Dawn dropped a book on Spike's foot as she tossed them out the window to him. Giles's head turned at the sound of Spike's voice.

Acting quickly, Buffy grabbed Giles's arm, "Umm, Giles, ah, that is, ummm," she trailed off helplessly. Apparently this was enough as Giles began to smile adoringly at her again. He chuckled softly and brushed his hand against the side of Buffy's face. Buffy's eyes widened in shock as he began to lean closer to her. His eyes fluttered closed as his mouth began to close in on her own. Caught like a vampire in the middle of a field during sunrise, Buffy just sat still in shock.

"Hey, guys!" Dawn's irritatingly chipper voice cut through the moment and the next thing Buffy knew, Giles was sitting calmly back on his own end of the sofa.

Buffy fiddled with her hands, "Gee, Dawn, isn't it about time that we get you home?" Her forced chipper tone was almost as bad as Dawn's.

Dawn nodded, "Yeah, Mom's expecting us."

Giles escorted them to the door. Dawn bounced out with a cheery wave. Buffy started to slip out after her, but Giles caught her hand. With a quick tug, he had his arm around her waist. Before Buffy knew what happened, she felt Giles press a quick kiss to her lips.

"Goodnight," he whispered against them.

Shocked, Buffy mumbled a quick goodbye before bolting out of the door.

What she didn't see, was Spike hiding nearby with a newly purchased camera in his hand and a very large grin on his face.
