Part 26 – Making decisions.

After the spell Tara and Buffy went to talk to the gang, and explained everything they had found out.

"Invisible?" Giles asked.

"Yeah, I was at the ocean when I first saw Willow since I came back, that place gave me peace, and I could never imagine that something could be hidden there, it's not an aquatic demon or something cause he wasn't wet or even had any kind of flipper, or wings that he could use fly…" Tara pointed.

"So, what's the plan to make the invisible castle be visible?" Xander asked.

"I don't know yet, we have to find a way. Giles, what do you think?" Tara said.

"Well, ah, it's a huge thing to make it invisible, the demon has to be very powerful and smart, it's not a regular demon that we are handling Tara, from it's name we can see that's not a local demon, I've heard of some foreign demons that don't stay on it's respective country, and want to have their house anywhere they want, they carry their house with them. Our demon could be one of them."

"Right, a Japanese demon… taking its house over a San Francisco ocean… and making it invisible? Oh well, that's something new…" Dawn pointed with a thinking face.

"So, I guess to make the mansion visible again, it will have to do with a pulled eye, fighting like a Samurai and making cute faces like Hello Kitty?" Xander said, and right after, Buffy hit him in the arm. "Ouch! What did I say? The demon could even yell Pikachu after we kill him." Xander said almost laughing and again winning another hit in the arm, now by Dawn.

"Wait, Xander might have a point." Giles said cleaning his glasses.

"What?" Dawn asked and every eye in that room was looking to Giles right now.

"The demon, a spell could only work if it's in Japanese, as sometimes we have to say in Latin, this is one of the times that we might have to say it in Japanese… I'm not sure yet, we better take a look at that."

"I know." Tara said and every move went directly to her.

"What?" Giles asked.

"When… when I was little, my mom used to teach me spells, it was with her that I've learned a lot. I remember one time that she told me about having to say a different language to communicate with others. And she gave a book, unfortunately, this book is lost now because of Sunnydale, but I remember reading something about Japanese demons, they are powerful, and if this demon is a natural Japanese we have to be careful cause they can be very trick." Tara explained.

"Oh, do you know any spells that might be helpful Tara? Cause it's incredible how we can't find the information about him over the net and in books." Giles asked.

"Actually, I don't remember one exactly spell, but I can try to search for it, I know one spell to make things visible again, but it changes between the thing that's it's invisible, and who made it, and even how big is it, the bigger it is, the more power is needed, and seeing that it's a mansion, it will need a very good amount of power. It's not hard to make one spell, I can do it in English, then just find a way to translate it."

"Can you do the spell?" Xander asked.

"Yeah, just using some special words and some magic, everything will work, I can try to search something, besides, Dawn can help me right?" Tara answered.

"Oh yeah! Little Dawnie being useful! That's how I like it." Dawn said excited.

"Good, now, what makes me a bit worried, is that it's a mansion, and from my information, mansions tend to be huge, especially a demon mansion, they like space… what will you need Tara?" Giles asked.

"Power. Giles… maybe you could ask…"

"The slayers…" Giles said as guessing Tara's idea.

"Yes, I'll need help, I don't think I can do that alone."

"Of course, I'll ask them, we found more slayers, there's even a Japanese one, maybe she might be helpful."

"Great! I think it's going to help a lot, thank you Giles."

"It's ok, one thing though… how many slayers will you want?" Giles asked.

"I already have Buffy here, and that's very helpful already, so let's see, Buffy, Xander, Giles, and me." Tara counted.

"Hey! What about me?" Dawn asked.

"Oh honey, I don't want you to get hurt and…" Tara excused.

"No, no Tara, I want in, I wanna help." Dawn said firmly.

"Buffy?" Tara looked at the slayer like asking for an answer.

"It's ok, nothing that I'll say now will change her mind, besides she proved to be a lot of help." Buffy answered with a smile, getting a proud face from Dawn.

"Ok, so with Dawn we are in 5… I guess 5 more will be ok, get the stronger ones." Tara suggested.

"Tara?" Buffy said serious with a thinking face.

"Yeah?"

"Ah… while I was training with the girls I could see that one girl was stronger then the others and…"

"This girl is Kennedy…" Tara saw it coming to that part.

"Yeah." Buffy and Giles answered.

"Guys, it's ok, I'm not worried about that, all that matters right now it's to know if she is powerful, I just want Willow walking and smiling again, it will be Kennedy's decision, if she wants, I will be ok with that, and if she doesn't want, I'll still understand her."

"Perfect." Giles answered with a smile and continued after some time. "So, let's get to work, I will make a call to bring the girls, while you guys help Tara with the spell." Giles said having everybody making his orders and he went to the living room where he could make his call.
