New Watcher and new friends (Ep 7)
Buffy walks into the library after avoiding all the students in the hall, she had worked hard to make any friends while at school and she never went to any place in town that would be called sociable, she stayed in the library most of her time at school because no one ever went in there, she had got used to it though, she sat down on the chairs and worked on her school work then went to her next class,
"Hell" came a british voice who had just entered the room, Buffy lifts her head and sees a man in a brown suit with glasses and a cup of tea in his hand,
"Uh hi" she gets up out her seat and introduces herself, "I'm Buffy Summers, sorry I hang out in here a lot" she says with a smile, he stares at her, and she walks back a bit uncomfortable,
"Oh uh sorry hi I'm Mr Giles, I'm the new librarian and your new watcher, Buffy' Buffy's eyes shoot open in shock,
"Oh uh ok, I didn't know I was getting a new watcher but, um, you know I really don't need one" she says trying to convince him to go, he puts his cup down and walks over to her,
"Now Buffy, I have been sent by the watchers council to train and guide you..." Buffy interrupts and rolls her eyes then flops down on her chair,
"Yeh yeh yeh I know the drill, but I've had a watcher didn't work out they end up kinda dead, you know evil vamp enemy decides to have some 'fun' and throw a knife in their backs so unless that what you want for the near future..." he raises a finger to her to stop,
"Buffy I heard what happened to Merrick I am sorry, you had to go through that, and I know what you done after that, you killed the two strongest vampires in vampire history on your own, now you may not need my help but the council are in charge whether we like it or not" Buffy pouts,
"Fine, just be careful I don't want to lose anyone else, why do you think I hang out in the library everyday I don't want anyone around me they'll get hurt" Giles sits down on the table with a concerned look on his face,
"You make it a habit to make no friends?" he asks with concern, Buffy sighs,
"Look I had friends in LA, Angelus hurt one of them, I cant let that happen again, I wont put anyone else's lives in danger" Buffy gets up and grabs her book, Giles stands up from the table,
"Uh Buffy" she turns to face him, "Could you meet me here after school for training" he says in a question way but with strictness in his voice, Buffy rolls her eyes, but nods,
"Yeh whatever" she turns to leave again,
"Oh and Buffy, you can have friends, don't distance yourself from people, you need them to ground you, you need someone to help you" he says sincerely, she turns to look at him,
"I had someone he's dead, and now I guess I have you, that enough" she turns and leaves for her next lesson just as the bell goes, Giles watches her leave,
"This is gunna be more of a challenge than I thought" he says to himself.
After School...
Buffy arrives at the library a few minutes after the bell rang, she walks in and throws her bag on the chair and flops into her chair to wait for Giles, after a few minutes he comes out his office with a cup of tea,
"Is all you ever drink?" she asks seeing him drinking yet another cup of tea, Giles looks at her then at the cup in his hand,
"No sometimes I drink scotch" he says he raises and eyebrow and jumps out the seat,
"Alright time to train" he nods and sets his tea down and goes over to the cupboard in the caged part of the library where books are returned, he opens the cupboard and shows Buffy the interior, Buffy looks in and her eyes widen,
"Wow, I'll take the crossbow" she says reaching for the crossbow, Giles smiles, and stops her hand,
"I think it's be better if you had something more handy" he pulls out a little crossbow from inside his suit jacket and hands it to her, her eyes widen and she takes it from his hands, "Just call it a present from your watcher" he says with a sincere smile, she smiles and gives him a hug which takes him aback, she pulls away from the hug and walks out the cage and aims the crossbow at various parts in the library, he watches her,
'She just needs to be reached, and also needs to change her style in cloths, she's beginning to look like a vampire'
He thinks to himself while observing her, he walks out the cage and stnds next to her,
"Ready for patrol?" he asks she turns suddenly,
"You're not coming" she says bluntly, he flutters his eyes in shock,
"I'm your watcher I am to observe your style of slaying" he says matter-of-factly, she snorts,
"Yeh sure Giles listen, thanx for the present and all, but you're not coming period, last watcher I had, died while 'observing' me fight, so no, you're staying here" she storms toward the door and pushes the doors open and she's out the building.
Buffy reaches the cemetery and walks through the gates, she walks through the cemetery and around in circles not spotting one vampire, after 30minutes she gets bored and heads for the gates to the cemetery when she hears a scream, she spins round in the direction the scream came from,
"Finally" she says and runs in the direction of the scream, she sees a girl vaguely familiar being attacked by a vampire, and runs over and kicks him in the back, he drops the girl from his arms and Buffy sees that its Willow, she looks her wide eyed and then turns to the vampire and punches it in the face, he falls to the floor and Buffy stakes him quickely she runs over to Willow and kneels down next to her,
"Are you ok?" she asks helping her to her feet, Wilow holds her neck and stares at Buffy,
"Uh yeh, what was that thing?" she asks in shock, Buffy smiles friendly,
"Uh that was, uh one of them" she says pointing behind her at 3 vampires coming up from behind Willow, she pushes her gently to the side and rusn toward the first vampire kicking it in the face then punching it she grabs his shoulder and throws him over her head, into a tre, she then turns to the next vampire and punches it in the face spisn it round and pushes it into a branch which goes into its heart and he explodes into dust, the last vamp comes up behind her and grabs her arms she struggles to get free when the first vampire comes in front of her and is about to bite her when, he explodes into dust, Buffy sees Willow shocked and holding a piece of wood in her hand, Buffy smiles then head butts the vampire holding her she spins round and does a flying kick at its head and then stakes it quickly in the heart, she turns to face Willow who still looks shocked she puts a hand on her shoulder and smiles,
"Thanx Will, you really saved my but" she says with a smile, Willow looks at her and blinks quicyly, then smiles,
"Uh uh that ok, so I guess vampires really are well real" she says, Buffy smiles,
"Yeh they are, what were you doing here anyway?" she asks looking around, Wilow sighs,
"Well I was at the Bronze and then the vamp you dusted first asks me out for ice-cream and he lead me here" she says embarrassed, Buffy smiles,
"That's ok Will, vampires have been around for like ever they know all the ways to get to people" she gives her a reassuring smile then starts walking towards the gates, with Willow following.
Buffy stops at the gates, and turns to her,
"You should head home, you've had a long night" she turns to leave but Willow stops her by putting a hand on her shoulder,
"Buffy?" Buffy turns to face her,
"Yah" she says making her sound fine, Willow ca tell something up,
"Are you ok, I mean I know now what your time after school is like, I mean with the killing of vampires..."
"...Slaying," Buffy interrupts Willow smiles slightly,
"Slaying, but I mean at school you seem distant like you don't want to be normal and have any friends sorry, but I actually worry about you" Buffy sighs,
"Will if you only knew what I've been through and the people who are... were my friends, they got hurt because of me, so I cant have friends Willow, they'll be in danger" Willow interrupts,
"But I wanna help, you saw me back there I staked a vampire, I can help you don't have to be alone" Buffy side smiles,
"Have you been talking to Giles?" she asks laughing a little, Willow's face looks confused,
"The librarian?" she says, Buffy sighs again and wraps an arm around her neck,
"All right Will, come on, you have a lot to learn" she says walking back towards the school, and Willow smiles.
