Disclaimer – I wish.

Dedication – To Tariq, for loving Wesley just a little too much.

Reviews – Yes, please.

Summary – The Watchers' council have captured two Vampires and are making them train the Slayer. But what happens if the Vampires get too close?

-

Buffy stared apprehensively at the door in which Giles was leading everyone through.

"Coming Buffy?"

The Slayer looked at her sister and smiled slightly, "Yeah." She answered, "I'm coming."

She followed Dawn into the training room where Giles and Wesley were standing silently in the middle of the room.

Wesley watched as everyone seated himself or herself around the floor, "Now the Vampires will be brought up in a second. But first we'd like to tell you their past history and why we're doing this. Understand?"

Everyone nodded.

"Right, they're called Angelus and Spike. Angelus' true Vampiric name is Angelus the Scourge of Europe the one with the angelic face…"

Willow snuck a glance at Buffy who was staring stonily ahead.

"… And Spike's full name is William the Bloody. Or it was. When he was human. Though he's still known by it today. But he's frequently referred –"

Dawn rolled her eyes, "Wesley, we get it."

Wesley blinked. "Right, well, both are dangerous Master Vampires and both were stupid enough to get captured. Angelus was turned in 1765 by a –"

"Wes, really, just get on with the intro thing."

Wesley glared at Dawn, "If you would stop interrupting, then maybe I would!"

Dawn raised her eyebrows, "Go on then." She challenged.

Wesley opened his mouth, his eyes blazing.

"Wesley," Giles intervened, "Could you go and get them?"

Wesley glared at Dawn before turning on his heel and disappearing down into the basement.

"The Watcher's Council Prophecy Library!"

Lorne calmly looked up at Anya.

She stared at him in disbelief, "I mean, what were you thinking?"

He shrugged, "If I hadn't done it, no-one else would of." He answered.

Anya gaped at him before turning to Doyle, "Doyle! This is all your fault!"

Doyle glanced up from the box he was rummaging through, "How'd you work that out?" He asked.

"If you had just used your stupid visionary thing, then we wouldn't be in this mess!" Anya cried, stamping her foot in frustration.

"At least we found out what we needed." Lorne pointed out, his eyes twinkling.

Anya blinked, "Yes…" She murmured thoughtfully, "I suppose."

Lorne smiled brightly, "Well then. There's nothing to be angry about."

(new scene)

"So, from your perspective what's the best way of killing someone; breaking their neck or strangling them?"

Spike frowned thoughtfully, "Well, in my opinion, I would say breaking their neck. But that's only if you want the death to be as quick and painless as you can make it. If you want to prolong the suffering and make them fight for their life then go with the strangling."

Dawn nodded, "Interesting."

Buffy exchanged a look with Willow.

The meeting was not going well. Dawn was becoming just a little too friendly with the evil bloodsucking Vampires (plus Buffy was slightly uncomfortable about the subject her sister was asking about), Riley was being moody and sulkily, Wesley and Giles were in the corner whispering in hushed tones and Xander was off in his own world. Only herself, Willow and Oz seemed normal. Even Kendra seemed a little quiet and preoccupied, though that could be the fact that she'd nearly shot herself with the crossbow she was still cleaning.

Buffy sighed and leaned back against the wall, wishing the meeting would come to an end.

"You were right, they are hot." Willow whispered.

Buffy blushed furiously as Angelus looked straight at her, a knowing smirk on his face. "Willow!" She hissed, "Vampires have extra sensitive senses!"

Willow looked at her in confusion, "What are you-" She stopped suddenly, her eyes widening in understanding. She smiled slightly, "Well, it's true." She amended casually.

Buffy rolled her eyes and nodded reluctantly, "I suppose." She murmured.

"So, are Spike and me taking you patrolling tonight?"

Buffy looked up startled, nearly giving herself whiplash in then process. Her eyes narrowed, "No, more like I'm taking you patrolling." She retorted, hating the smirk that seemed to be permanently etched Angelus' face.

He nodded, "Of course. Well, I'm sure we'll all have fun. I know I will" He turned to Willow and smiled slightly as she blushed deeply at his gaze, "And will the pretty witch be coming with us?"

Buffy scowled, "No, she won't. She'd be in more danger than usual with you two around."

Willow glanced nervously at the Slayer as the dark-haired Vampire continued to stare at her.

"Don't worry, witch, I'll protect you from the big bad monsters." He shot Buffy a smirk, "But then I'm sure the Slayer will need my protection a lot more than you. After all, she be too enthralled by my charm that she won't know what she's doing and so I'll have to make sure she doesn't get her arse kicked."

Buffy sighed in irritation and shoved him away. "Leave us alone, will you?"

Angelus just grinned rakishly and, still staring at Willow, backed away towards the still conversing Spike and Dawn.

"Okay, he's not too creepy."

Buffy smiled slightly at Willow's scared tone and rested her head on her best friend's shoulder. "Hopefully this won't take long." She said comfortingly.

Willow's face scrunched up in incredulity, "It's Dawn and two hot guys." She reminded the blonde, "It will take ages."

Buffy sighed in despair, "Even if the guys are actually Vampires?" She asked hopefully.

Willow nodded, "Even if." She replied. "I wonder what's wrong with Cordy." She muttered after a minute of comfortable silence.

Buffy shrugged, "Who knows?" She looked around the room, "I'm more worried about Faith. She wouldn't have missed this for the world."

OH MY GOD!

I just realised something.

You know how the Council and… oh wait, yeah I do. I was going to say I had no idea what to do about the whole prophecy thing, but I've just remembered what I was going to do.

Anyway…

Yay, I've updated. Completely boring chapter, I know but… well, my inspiration is running out.

The next chapter will be the actual patrol.

Oh my god, this chapter sucked.

I'm sorry, but, well, I just didn't have anything to go on.

But please tell me what you thought, even if you think it sucked and I should be placed in a mental ward, cause at the moment I should.

OH MY GOD!

I just realised something.

I haven't updated this for more than a year!

Shoot me now.

Crap chapter and a crap updater.

I don't deserve to get reviews.
