I'm amazed at the reviews I'm getting! Thanks to everyone that's reading it! It really adds fuel to the fire! I realize this is a little short, but I'm working on it. I'm trying to keep chapters a little longer.

Chapter Six

Truths and Fiction


"So, Jack, what are we going to do?" Daniel asked once they were back on the base.

"First off, how do we know that this Buffy is the real deal when it comes to Slayers?" Jack asked as he hit the elevator button.

"Well, if the whole thing with her security clearence doesn't prove it, then I say what Sam and I saw at that warehouse certianly does."

"What exactly did we see at the warehouse?" Sam asked. Daniel looked at her.

"I'm not entirely sure."

"I mean, those guys, they really turned to dust, right? How is that even possible?" Sam asked. They entered the breifing room. Daniel just shrugged, unsure of how to answer that, since he didn't know how it was possible.

"Teal'c, you okay, man? You haven't said a word since we left that hotel." Jack said, eyeing his friend.

"I am well, O'Niell." Teal'c replied, though his teammates knew something was up. He was being even more stoic than usual, if that was possible. Just then, General Hammond came in and they all took a seat.

"Tell me what you've found out." General Hammond started.

"Well, sir, we were just about to go over what Sam and Daniel saw at an abandoned warehouse." Jack told him. The General looked to the two scientists.

"I don't really know how to explain it, sir. We followed Buffy and her friends to an old warehouse and when we found them, they were fighting a group of people. Daniel and I got attacked, which is how we were made. But that's not the weird part." Sam said, looking to Daniel.

"Sir, the people turned to dust when Buffy or her friends killed them." Daniel finished.

"What?" General Hammond said, incredulously.

" We're not sure what to make of it, either, sir." Sam said.

"They turned to dust?" the General repeated, unable to comprehend it. Both Sam and Daniel nodded. "And how did Miss Summers and her friends manage to take out this group of people?"

"Well, Buffy had this axe weapon, sort of like a scythe. Her sister was carrying a sword and Xander Harris had a crossbow. But the rest were only armed with..." Sam paused.

"What?"

"Stakes, sir. Wooden ones." she finished.

"That doesn't make any sense. Why would they arm themselves with wooden stakes?" General Hammond asked. Both scientists shrugged.

"It seemed to get the job done." Daniel stated.

"Relax, guys. It's not like we're dealing with vampires." Jack said, sarcasm evident in his voice. Daniel and Sam both started, looking at Jack. Jack could already see the wheels working in his friends heads. "Guys, no. I was kidding. Vampires don't exist."

"Well, Jack, it fits. The stakes, the bodies turning to dust. And when I was doing my own research on the Slayer the only thing I ever came up with was a Vampire Slayer, but I brushed it off as fiction. What if vampires really do exist?" Daniel asked.

"Oh, please, Daniel. Vampires? You can't be serious." Jack rolled his eyes.

"I think I'm going to do some more research on this." Daniel stated.

"And General, I'd like someone to look further into this Initiative. From what we got from Buffy and her gang, is that they're military, and probably the reason for her high clearence." Jack told him. The General nodded thed dismissed the meeting.


"Aliens? You mean real, out-of-this-world, Roswell aliens?" Buffy asked her friend in disbelief. Willow had finally gotten into the SGC computer system.

"Yup, they use something called a Stargate. Apparently to go to other planets. I'm guessing the Stargate is kinda like a portal. It connects with another 'gate on another planet and a wormhole is established, allowing light years of travel to take only seconds." Willow was obviously fascinated by what she discovered.

"And I take it these Gold things...they're aliens?"

"Goa'uld." Willow corrected. "And yes, that's what it says.Seems the SGC has been fighting these aliens for as long as we've been in the business of fighting demons here on Earth."

"I knew Area 51 dealt with real alien crafts!" Xander said, in barely hidden excitement.

"Wow. Aliens. In the vast space that is our universe we learn that we are not the only living beings, but that there are others..."

"Andrew, shut it." Kennedy snapped. Andrew sank back into his chair and pouted.

"So now not only do we have to deal with demons from unknown hell dimensions, but these aliens as well? Are we ever going to get a break?" Buffy said, exasperated. "First a military unit after sub-terrestrials, now one dealing with those of the extra variety. Isn't this fun? The military should get involved more often!" she snarked.

"Well, I think it's clear that the Slayer needs to get involved, but we have to wait to see what they plan on doing. Although, if they do contact us, I think it would be wise to keep quiet on what we've found out." Giles said.

"And if they don't contact us?" Xander asked.

"Then we take it to them."


"When I tried to find out more about the Initiative I got piled under so much paperwork it would take me the better part of three years to get through." Jack said, irritated.

"What kind of mistake did they create that they had to bury so deeply?" Sam asked.

"That's exactly what I'm trying to find out. Daniel, please tell me you were more successful."

"Depends on what you call successful." Daniel started. "I was able to find a few references to the Slayer, and after throwing out about 98 percent of them because they were all having to do with movies or books, I came up with one or two that seeped to be legit. Both said the same thing," he looked down to read off his notes. "'Into each generation, a Slayer is born. One girl in all the world. A chosen one. One born with the strength and skill to hunt the vampires, to stop the spread of their evil and swell of their numbers.'"

"Only one? Kennedy seemed to imply that there were others." Sam said.

"Exactly. I didn't find a single thing regarding mulitple Slayers. Not to mention the tablet we found on P6X-408 only said 'The Slayer' and it didn't talk about any others either."

"What are you saying Dr. Jackson?" General Hammond asked.

"I'm saying that I think the Slayer the tablet talks about and the Slayer I found during my research could be one in the same."

"And where do Buffy and her friends fit in?" Jack asked.

"I have no idea."
