Chapter 2
Walking back towards the park, Kat hears footsteps and turns around to face Angelus "Stealing now, aren't we?" She sighs and admires his soft eyes, without a word and turns around yet again towards her path. Shifting her backpack to her other shoulder she stops and asks him "What do you want?" Angelus then walks up to her and says "I already told you. I'm here to help you." Kat looks up at his eyes and says "Help me? You don't even know me." He smiles softly running a finger down her cheek gently and replies "I know you better than you think." Kat steps back and laughs at his face "Stalker aren't we? So really what do you want?" says shifting her weight to her left. Angelus walks abit ahead of her, his back to her and says "I can help you against the vampires." Kat blinks and looks towards the bench where she sat yesterday. "What are you talking about? How can you do that?" He then turns around to face her and says "I've been a vampire for over four hundred years." At that, Kat steps back taking out a stake quickly instinctively. Angelus steps back aswell and says "I won't hurt you, you may find it odd. But I still have my soul." Kat breaks out in laughter and says "Yea right. And I'm a werewolf who can withstand silver. Listen whatever you're here for, you won't be able to help me." And turns to walk off until he grabs her wrist turning her around slowly "I know you need a place to stay." Kat nods in agreement, Angelus holds her hand gently and heads towards an abandoned house.
Sitting down on the lumpy couch, seeing a spring coming out of the other end Kat says "Okay I'm sleeping on the floor." Angelus smiles and just then a huge fat rat passes by and Kats says "Okay nevermind the couch is fine." Angelus laughs abit seeing his fangs for a second. Kat finally able to see his body in the dimmed light smiles to herself and says to him "Tomorrow I'll be attending Sunnydale High." He raises his eyebrows "Is that so? Who will sign you in? " Kat grins and says "Who said I'll actually be going to school?" Angelus returning her smile says "You might aswell rest up. I won't be able to wake you."
As sunshine broke through the shattered windows, Kat was already up and ready but hungry. She makes her way to a small coffee shop and gets a small Coke and a bag of Doritos. Sitting in a chair with her backpack at her side, she opens the bag and coke. Reaching in grabbing a chip and putting in her mouth she wonders what time the classes start. Kat then wonders about Xander aswell Does he go to Sunnydale? I think he does. Finishing her coke and chips she stands up and makes her way towards Sunnydale High School. Her backpack bumping against her leg, her brown curly hair going below her shoulders and baggy pants rubbing against the ground, she then stuffs her hands in her pockets feeling a small crucifix in her fingers. The school appears in the distance, full with students walking and others on skateboards, and yellow buses coming in. Kat smiles and breathes in "First day of school always sucks." and walks into the schools main doors. Kat then sees the blonde girl and Xander walking along with her. The girl sees Kat and gets a stumpted look on her face, Kat stops walking. Xander then turns and sees her, his eyes growing wide for a second as he drops all his books. Buffy looks at him and says "You've seen her before?" Xander nods stupidly and looks at Buffy's direction "Huh?" Buffy rolls her eyes angrily and looks back to see that Kat wasn't there.
When Kat noticed they weren't paying attention to her, she took the oppurtunity to walk away into a random classroom, sitting in the back of the classroom, sure to be unnoticed. She takes out a notebook hoping to seem as normal as possible when she looks up to see the teacher walk in. Lifting her notebook quickly to cover her face, she dreads on waits for the bell to ring. "Good morning class, today we're going to have a pop quiz." Hearing the rest of the class moan, Kat looks around the room and notices it to be a history room she groans aswell. She looks across the room to see a girl with red hair staring at her. "Willow Rosenberg." She looks at the teachers direction and raises her hand and opens her book not looking back at Kat again. After about an hour of hell, the bell finally rings.
