Spike walked through the sewers of Sunnydale with his arms crossed, he wished he had his famed leather trenchcoat, but he had left it in the basement of the new highschool and didn't want to go back and get it incase The First was there. Spike now only wore his black jeans with a black long sleeved shirt that hung off him loosely with his doc martins. He sighed lost in deep thought about Riley and Buffy.
" What did she ever see in the Wanker in the first place?" Spike mumbled as he started to climb up the latter that lead into the back area of Willy's demon bar.

Buffy walked down the streets of Sunnydale with Willow by herside, she was chanting a spell silently while walking very.... very.... slowly.
" Will, do you think we could cover this block by the time I'm Spike's age?" Buffy asked raising a brow at her red headed Wicca friend.
" Sorry Buffy, but it's hard to cast spells this hard while in motion." Willow said smiling.
" What kind of spell is this anyway?" Buffy asked curiously.
" Nothing big, it's just a simple analyzing/tracking spell."
" A what what?"
" Analyzing and tracking." Willow laughed, " Sam showed me a file that had the compounds of the blood cells in a sample of blood that The Initive took from that vampire that escaped. I looked at the file and found a spell that will lock onto the blood cells matching those of the virus's."
" Your too smart for your own good." Buffy shook her head smiling.
" I know." Willow said laughing and they contiuned down the street.

" Are you in yet?" Riley asked from pacing around behind Sam as they sat at the dining room table in the Summers home. Sam was typing furiously on Willow's laptop trying to get her way into the Hospital's files.
" There's a firewall, I never knew computer hacking could be so hard...." Sam said as she continued typing.
" The only reason we're doing this though is because the doctors wouldn't let us look at the files inside the Hospital. I thought that General Persey sent out a notice that we'd be coming!" Riley said leaning over Sam with one arm on the back of her chair and the other on the table.
" Riley honey, calm down." Sam soothed her frantic husband, " Maybe it got intercepted or no one got the message or something."
" I don't know Sam...." Riley said shaking his head.
" Hey I got in!" Sam said smiling and pulled up the recent files. She looked over the symptons and causes of all the patiants, but there was nothing in there that related to their search. " Thank god, it didn't spread into the hospital yet." Sam sighed in relif.
" But it still might be around town, or just in the vampires." Riley said crossing his arms.
" We'll just have to wait for Buffy, Willow, and Spike to get back." Sam said closing the laptop. Dawn came out of the kitchen holding a soda pop, she looked into the dining room and saw them.
" Hey so did you guys get into the hospital yet? You know I could have done that for you and saved you an hour or so." Dawn said smiling.
" You can hack into places? Does Buffy know that?" Riley asked.
" Ah I forgot I got way more studying to do bye!" Dawn said quickly and ran up the stairs back to her room.

Spike walked into Willy's casually and took a seat at the bar and ordered a whisky.
" Hey Willy, ever have any vamps come in 'ere act'n kind of freaky?" Spike asked downing his whisky.
" I work in a demon bar Spike, I serve guys who have 6 eyes and tenticals and horns in places where I didn't think horns could even grow! Your discribing every day to me." Willy said as he cleaned glasses with a dishrag.
" I'm talk'n 'bout Vampire 'ere, like, they ever come in 'ere who look kinda sick?"
" Before or after their drunk?"
" Oh I give up."
" Na, I ain't seen any sick vampires." Willy said looking up from his glass, " Hey did you get punched on your way in or something?"
" What are you talking 'bout?"
" Your nose is bleeding." Willy said looking at him oddly, Spike looked up and ran his fist under his nose and sure enough there was blood on his hand.
" What did she ever see in the Wanker in the first place?" Spike mumbled as he started to climb up the latter that lead into the back area of Willy's demon bar.
