Chapter 24
It had been a week since Spike and Connor left the two siblings in the cemetery. Connor had wanted to stay and find out what the hell was going on, but Spike had a feeling that things would soon unravel and reveal themselves. Buffy had gone into super-mom-mode when she saw Connor limping. While Buffy took care of her son, both Spike and Connor filled Angel, Giles and Buffy in on the new information. They spoke of the girl having another brother and the fact that they were both scared shitless about something. They also took into consideration that Connor had sensed that this "new" brother wasn't human. Yet, that if she knew that Connor was somewhat not human than she couldn't be either. However, what confused them was that neither Angle, Connor nor Spike, sensed anything other than human in her.
Giles had a theory about who the girl was and what was going on, but he had yet to voice it to anyone. If he was right this girl they kept seeing was more amazing than any of them could have even begun to imagine.
Spike, Angle, Connor, Buffy, and Giles were out on patrol a week after the meeting in this very cemetery. Everyone had agreed that the odds of seeing any of them again would increase if they stuck to the place that they had visited before. They weren't wrong, but only one would be graced with her presence this evening.
Giles wanted a chance to meet the girl that had their world basically turned upside down. Here they were supposed to be looking for Dawn and the only thing they kept doing was researching these mysterious teenagers. But, Giles had a feeling that if he just got a good look at her then he would be able to tell immediately who she was, and whether or not he was right. Giles hung back while the others fought when her presence was made known by her voice.
"What scares you more, the fact that you have an idea of who I am or the fact that deep down you know your right?" Giles turned to face the teenage girl. He was in awe of her presence, power just seemed to radiate off her, of course he had a feeling she only let it radiate off of her when she chose to do so or the four fighting would have sensed it by now. Her legend was far greater than even that of the calling of a slayer.
She couldn't help but smile at Giles' expression, it wasn't that she wasn't used this kind of reaction it was just that his face was just too priceless. She offered him her hand and introduced herself. "I'm Danielle, but everyone just calls me Dani." Giles took her hand and introduced himself in return. She couldn't help but chuckle in response, "I'm well aware of who you are Mr. Giles. My mother talks about you often. Besides, if I didn't know you, I wouldn't be speaking to you. I don't like strangers."
Giles was confused for a moment, when he finally saw it, and gasped in surprise. "Your Dawn's daughter!" Dani smiled and nodded. "Yes I am. Danielle Elizabeth Carinton. Sorceress of all that is good, daughter to the Key, the purest form of good." Dani couldn't help but chuckle as he wiped his glasses. After a moment the two turned their attention back to the four warriors. That's when Giles noticed the similar dress of Dani and Spike. "You look up to him a great deal don't you?" Giles asked her quietly. For a moment she was quiet. "I head my military on the battle tactics that were once his. I add my own twists, but they are his none the less. I respect his abilities and his intelligence." Giles nodded in understanding. It was a fact that he couldn't deny, Spike was good at what he did. However, her next statement surprised the hell out of him, and it was then that he realized the real ride they where all in for.
" And what little girl, who was a complete Daddy's girl since birth, wouldn't look up to and hero worship her father. Just because my father is a vampire make's me no different. I'm a daddy's girl, always have been, always will be." Giles looked at her in surprise, yet he wasn't surprised at all, it was hard to explain. "Can they…" he asked nervously. "Hear me? No. One of the many perks about being a sorceress." Giles nodded. " You can't tell him or the other's who my brothers and I are or that we are here to stay, Especially my father. My mothers life depends on it." And with that she walked away into the darkness, much like her father.
