Buffy walked in to the bungalow in which she would be staying. Giles was nice enough to get her a secluded bungalow with no roommate; it made things so much easier for Buffy. She looked around the room and left out a sigh. She planned to unpack a little later. She wanted to go exploring around campus first.

Since she got to Drake University a little later then scheduled, she was a week late for classes. The University was already in full swing in its new year. She went to the bathroom to touch up her make-up and then she was out on the sidewalk, exploring. There were students everywhere. The sun was out and everyone was eager to be outside.

Buffy kept on walking until she felt her spidery-senses go of. She looked around but saw nothing out of the ordinary. Everyone was going about his or her day, nothing was wrong. Damn Senses, Buffy thought as she resumed her walk. She was so lost in her thoughts that she bumped into someone.

"My god, I'm so sorry," Buffy shrieked. "It's okay really. Hi, my name is Sandy," said the girl with dark hair. "I'm Buffy." "Nice, I don't hear that name often. Are you a freshmen?" "I am," Buffy replied. On her transcript it said that she was eighteen. It made it an easier cover story. "I'm really sorry for bumping into you," Buffy apologized again.

"No problem. Hey, I know this is kind of awkward to ask but I have a n extra ticket to a party tonight, would you be interested in going?" Sandy said hopefully. "A party," Buffy said skeptically. "Yeah," Sandy said as she handed Buffy the invitation.

"Sort of like a welcome to the campus type a thing. "It's the Doma Tau Omega Frat house. There parties are almost impossible to get into. I promise that you'll have fun." "Ah, sure, why not. I guess I owe you, seeing as I bumped into you and all," Buffy said.

Buffy was happy that the girl thought that she needed help to get into the 'in-crowd'. She might get a chance to talk to some people and investigate at the same time. "Great, what bungalow are you in? I'll take you there." "I'm in the 500 bungalow." "The secluded one, cool. I'll be there at around nine then." "Great," Buffy said. "I'll see you around that time then," Sandy said with a cheerful smile and walked on her way.

Buffy started to walk towards her bungalow, mission in mind. As she reached to open the door to the room, a pain of guilt washed over her. She quickly brushed it of. She was allowed some fun while she was here. Now, what am I going to wear? Buffy's thoughts trailed of.
