Sorry it took so long but between moving, computer damage, long repair and school, I didn't have time to write. Sorry but I'm back now.
"So you say these people seem to show up when you need them, give you advice and help. Also as they do this they seem to be singing the same song", asked Giles as he sat in the Library with Buffy, Willow and Xander
"First it was a girl about my age who helped with the Harvest, Early one morning, just as the sun was rising, I heard a maid sing, in the valley below, o, don't deceive me, o, never leave me, how could you use a poor maiden so", started Buffy
"Then it was that older guy at the bronze before the mantis got Xander, Gay is the garland, and fresh are the roses, I've culled from the garden, to place upon thy brow, o, don't deceive me, o, never leave me, how could you use a poor maiden so", added Willow
"I thought I told you never to talk about that and the next was that girl when Buffy was having the date, Remember the vows, that you made to your Mary, remember the bower, where you vowed to be true, o, don't deceive me, o, never leave me, how could you use a poor maiden so. What do you think it means it's not even a catchy tone", asked Xander
"It's an old folk song that was very popular in London in the 1800s and there's one more verse, Thus sang the poor maiden, her sorrows bewailing, thus sang the poor maid, in the valley below", answered Giles as he looked thought full
"None of them had a British accent, one was American, another was Native American and the third was Asian", replied Buffy as she stood up and started pacing
"It could be their way of letting you know they're here to help you and are working together but who they are I have no clue", stated Giles
"Yah they know Buff'd lay them out if they came up to her and said hay we know you're the Slayer, we're not demons but we're here to help you", said Xander as the bell rang
"Warning bell, see yah later Giles", replied Buffy as the group headed out of the Library
That Evening Street of Sunnydale
"It's late, I'm tired and I don't wanna play games, show yourself", instructed Buffy as she stood alone and three vampires jumped out at her
"Okay, okay, look I really don't wanna fight all three of you, unless I have to", stated Buffy as she was getting her ass kicked
"Thus sang the poor maiden, her sorrows bewailing, thus sang the poor maid, in the valley below o, don't deceive me, o, never leave me, how could you use, a poor maiden so", sang a boy Buffys age with curly brown hair and bright blue eyes as he knocked the two holding Buffy away
"Run", instructed Buffy as the three started getting up
"No prob with that luv", answered the boy as they ran to Buffys house slamming the door shut and locking it
"I've never tested it but it says vamps can't come in without an invite", stated Buffy as they walked away from the doors
"It's true we have nothing to worry about and the Master will kill the Three for failing", answered the boy
"You don't but I might, you're one of my stalkers", replied Buffy as she looked the boy up and down
"So what you're not happy to see me", asked the boy as he walked into the kitchen
"May be tonight but what's with you folk singers, on shit Mom", stated Buffy as she heard the front door open
"Who's this", asked Joyce as she walked into the kitchen
"This is", started Buffy but didn't know what to say
"My name's Will, ma'am, I'm a transfer student and Buffy here was helping me accommodate to my new courses", smiled Will as he shook Joyces hand
"No offence Buffy but wouldn't Willow have been a better choice", asked Joyce
"Buffy is just fine and Willow is occupied with helping Xander", smiled Will
"It's getting late, I'm going to go to bed and Buffy", stated Joyce
"I'll say good night and do the same", smiled Buffy as Joyce walked up the stairs
"It was nice meeting you Will", smiled Joyce as she looked back then disappeared down the hall
"Good night Will, see you at school tomorrow", stated Buffy as she opened the door and Will tried to leave but Buffy grabbed his shirt pulling him back. Then she closed the door and led him up to her room.
"I guess you want an explanation now", asked Will
"Yah and I don't want one of my supposed protectors dead", added Buffy as she sat on her bed
"I'll explain tomorrow because Giles, Willow and Xander will want all the details too", answered Will
"How do I know you wont kill me in my sleep", asked Buffy
"Just think I have no weapons and you keep you weapons chest under lock and key and you're the Chosen One", smiled Will
"Fine you sleep on the floor", replied Buffy as she gave him her comforter
"Much obliged luv", said Will as he lay the blanket on the floor
"What's with the luv", asked Buffy as he lay down
"I think it's genetics", laughed Will
Next Morning School
"So this boy was gone when you woke up, was he cute", asked Willow
"Yah kinda but if I see his ass again I'm going to kick it, he said he'd explain things", replied Buffy
"And I thought you'd be happy to see me luv", smiled Will as he walked into the library
"Why don't you leave Buffy alone and go back to your crew of stalkers", asked Xander
"The tapes were right you were crushing, my suggestion mate wait for the demon bird, get married and live happily ever after with some span instead of giving up", laughed Will
"So you are one of the mysterious strangers, why are you helping Buffy", asked Giles
"And you're the Watcher with the apple up his ass that never gave Buffy the Slayer Manual", answered Will as he sat down at the table
"Apple, Slayers Manual", choked Buffy
"You have us at a disadvantage you seem to know us but we don't know you", replied Giles
"I just started Watcher, I haven't even gotten started on Red and her becoming a full fledge witch", pouted William
"I will kick your ass if you keep dancing around", replied Buffy
"Okay luv, Watcher could you get a Journal by Nicholas Giles year 1880", smiled William as Giles went over to one of his shelves and retrieved it
"I don't know why you'd want it, he wasn't even a Watcher and I've never even read it", said Giles as Will flipped through the book
"Today was a most interesting day, my good friend William Westton came into my shop with a small pinched nosed blond haired green eyed American woman. It started out normal I asked her, what would you like a specialty herb to spice up your cooking. She replied no I don't cook but I need the herbs on the list as she handed me a paper. The list was for a de inviting of a vampire spell. I asked her, Do you know what these items are child and she retorted, I do and what happens when they're mixed together in those portions and a few Latin words are said. A stupid live in maid invited the wrong person into the Westton house and we can't have it come back in the middle of the night now can we. I gave her want she requested and she asked for items like a crossbow and knife for whittling stakes, which I later delivered to the Westton house. Talking with the woman she had gained the anger of Angelus- the one with the angelic face by killing his women Darla and Drusilla with the help of William. Mrs. Annie Westton and her son had taken her in as protection. She is of no interest to the council but for record her name is Miss. Buffy Summers", read Will then he closed the book
"What", whispered Xander
"That's what is says", added Giles as he had been reading over Wills shoulder
"They always wondered what Nicholas had thought of her", laughed Will as he handed the book back to Giles
"What happen to Buffy, how did she wind up in the past", asked Willow
"And who are you, how did you know about this", added Buffy as the bell rang
"Will Westton, magic clone of William Westton, sent to assist Buffy Summers since she changed the future. I'll explain more later but now we better get going or we'll be late for class", smiled Will as he stood up and started walking out
