It is a nice summer London day, full of sunshine. Giles looks out the window and looks at all the people moving around doing the casual jobs. He tries to recall being in a casual job. As far as Giles can remember, he has always been a Watcher. He can remember the moment he saw Buffy and trained her and brought her up like she was his own child. He cared for her and tried to protect her as much as he can. And because of her, the world is safe once more from all the evil.
He looks back at the office he is standing in. His office was refurbished and modernized compared to the old Watcher's Council. People are busy looking for Slayers all around the world. The slayers were brought up and trained by all the Watchers who have joined the new council. And Giles is leading the council as the head. He should be happy. But something still keeps bothering him. Giles misses the moments he had with the Scoobies. He thinks he should have gone easy with them. He should have allowed them to have their fun and live their life. But atleast they are on their own now living their lives happily. Dawn & Buffy are in Rome, Xander is still in Africa, Faith & Wood is still in Cleveland with some of the slayers escaping the Sunnydale destruction and Willow & Kennedy are in Brazil where Willow is learning to control her magic and improving it further more. It seemed like everything ended happily except for Anya & Spike. Their thoughts brought sad memories for Giles. He regretted the way he treated Spike especially in the last year in Sunnydale when Spike came back with the soul. After hearing what he did to save the world, Giles felt guilty for trying to get rid of him. He lit a candle for him in the church after reaching England.
Then the phone rang to disturb him from his thoughts.
"Hello"
"Yes this is Rupert Giles. Hi Melvrick! How is everything in L.A.? Really? What? I'll get right on it. I'll speak to you later. Bye."
After hanging up, Giles started to think for himself.
'Could Angelus have returned?' It seemed like a possible explanation. But he didn't want to run into any conclusions. He wondered whether it would be the right thing to do to inform Buffy. But he didn't want to keep any secrets after what happened with Spike. He looked through his phone book to find her number. He took the phone and called her. After three rings, someone picked the phone on the other side.
"Hello"
"Hello Buffy. It's Giles."
"Oh Hi Giles. After long time. Forgotten about his trainee since she is not the only slayer anymore huh?"
"Not at all Buffy. You will always be an important part of my life. However, this is an extreme situation that required your presence immediately."
"Shoot away Giles"
"There seems to be an upcoming apocalyptic battle coming. One of my informant said that there were lots of demon activities happening and it seemed like a hugh destruction is on its way."
"Don't they ever rest? Why do they just keep on coming? Anyways, where is it going to happen now? Hellmouth in Cleveland?"
"Actually No. It seems like it's going to happen in L.A."
"Where?" Buffy lost a moment in confusion. "Angel is in L.A. Is he involved in this?"
"I'm not sure actually. My informant was not specific about it."
"Giles… Do you think Angelus is back in action again? I mean Angel is running W&H and he might have gone back to his bad side again"
"I don't know. It seemed like a possible explanation. But I didn't want to conclude before consulting with you."
"Ok Giles. Thanks for the info. Get all the slayers you can into a plane to L.A. I'll meet them at the airport. Also inform all the Scoobies and Faith to come to L.A. If Angelus is back and have W&H under his control, we need all the power we can get to fight against him."
"OK Buffy. I'll arrange for the flight for everyone. They will meet you at the Airport in L.A."
"Thanks Giles."
"And Buffy…. good to see you back in action."
"Well… feels like old times doesn't it? I'll speak to you after winning as usual"
"Be careful Buffy"
"Thanks. I know."
Buffy hangs up and starts to pack up all the weapons she could find. She looked at the scythe for a moment thinking and then she packed it too with her weapons bag.
Giles started to make the calls to the rest of the Scoobies.
