"So, Giles, what's up? Or in Dawn's words what 'oogly-booglies' are we looking out for now?" Buffy asked Giles while beating a tattoo on the table top with her fingers. Giles polished his glasses and headed for a phone. "Um, shall we call Willow and the gang before we start?" Buffy gave Giles a strange look, "Why?" Giles sighed and put his glasses back on. "Because I have a lot of information to go over and I'd rather not have to go over it twice." Buffy nodded, that made sense, "Ok then, we shall."

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

It had only taken Buffy forty-five minutes to round everybody up. And then they had to wait another half-hour for Dawn, because she didn't want to be left at the apartment alone. When every one was present Giles started his lecture. "As you all know the Buffy and the other slayers have been having a difficult time finding vampires to slay." And here Andrew interrupted, "What? There have been slaying problems? No body told me about this. Why didn't any one tell me about this? I could help."

"Andrew, I do believe you have hit the nail with the hammer."

Andrew glared at Xander, "and what is that supposed to mean?" Xander snorted, "What do you think it means, shorty." Andrew gasped and placed a hand over his heart, "Xander how can you be so cruel. I am a very important asset to the gang."

"Oh yah, prove it!"

"I'm here at this meeting aren't I?"

"Andrew, you're here because you heard me talking with Buffy and begged to come along."

Andrew threw himself across the room and body slammed Xander. Well, actually he just sort of walked over to Xander and sat on him. Buffy rolled her eyes and looked at Dawn, who smirked. "And you thought I was immature." Buffy grinned, "Yah, but they're boys."

"Sooo?"

"Boy's are supposed to be immature until they graduate from college. And as we both know, neither of these guy's even went to college."

Dawn laughed, and then sobered. "I dunno Buffy, there are a lot of mature guys at my school."

"Really, name 'em."

Dawn blushed and started stammering, but she was saved from having to answer by Giles who was polishing his glasses furiously, "Would every one please calm down and listen to me. I have some important news." And then the phone interrupted him. "Want me to rip that out for ya?" a smiling Willow asked a very disgruntled looking Giles. He sighed and pushed him glasses further up his nose, "No thank you, Willow. It might be important."

As Giles went off to answer the phone the rest of the group tried to untangle Andrew and Xander who were by this time rolling around n the floor. After many failed attempts to explain to Andrew that Xander was joking and he needed to let go of Xander's leg, Buffy and Faith reached in and pulled the two of them apart. "Ok, now Andrew you sit over there and Xander, you sit here by Willow." Buffy heaved a sigh and sat back down next to Dawn.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

An hour later they had gotten no farther than explaining to Andrew what had happened in the cemetery the other night. But at no fault of the teller's, the supposed listener kept interrupting with stupid questions. So after the long boring task of telling Andrew what the going on, they finally got down to business. "So Giles, why are we here?" Giles looked around the room at the Scooby's, "Very well, now that we all know" Here Giles paused to give Andrew a withering glance, "that there have been slow spots in the slaying. We are here to discuss the reason." Another signifigant pause, then "Thanks to the information Buffy and Faith have given me, I have found out some very interesting things about our werewolf friends.

"Their leader calls himself after the Celtic god of the wolves. And his beta is named after a very powerful Wicca Shape shifter, whose favorite form was that of the wolf. The rest of them are named after Native American Spirits and ancient magic users. Balkar Longsight for instance, was a Russian cleric who forsook the church and went off practice the black arts, and it is also believed that he was one of Van Helsing's many alias'."

"Wait a minute! Van Helsing? He's real too?"

"Yes Xander, Van Helsing was or is a real person."

"Was or is?"

"Yes, I'm afraid we are not really sure whether he is dead or not. The Watchers Council was not entirely sure that he was human."

"OK, I'm weirded out how bout you guys?"

Giles took his glasses off and started polishing them, "As I was saying before Xander's interruption, these werewolves seem to have an interest in the names of the old ones. The name of their pack, the Direwolves, most would relate that to the Huns and the Mongols. But it goes back further than that. Back in the days of the old ones there was a mercenary group who rebelled against the tyrannical demons that ruled at that time. They came before the Slayer, and it has been said that the Slayers are all born of their line."

"I'm the descendant of an evil fighting mercenary band? Cool." Everybody looked at Buffy. Buffy looked at everybody. "What? It's not every day you find out where you come from."

"Yes, well, you're not directly descended of course or it would be far too easy to destroy the Slayer."

"Yah, and it would mean you and me were sisters. And I don't know about you, B, but that's too creepy for me."

"Faith, nothing's too creepy for you."

"Well, I don't know about that. I think the lead singer on Green Day is just whacked."

Xander nodded his agreement, "Yah, that mascara makes him look like he's dead." Giles rolled his eyes, "Can we get back on topic please?" Xander looked at his shoes sheepishly, "Sorry Giles."

"Since the Watchers Council has been destroyed, our sources were extremely short in this researching expedition. However I did manage to find out that the werewolves we are dealing with could be at least forty maybe sixty years old. And I'm talking about the werewolf not the human that turns into the werewolf. There has been a pack in Rome for over a hundred years. Some of these werewolves might be apart of one of the original packs."

"Well, it's only a small pack, nine Were's. Not too hard."

"Um, Buffy, I'm afraid the pack is larger than nine."

"How much larger?"

"Well according to my calculations there should be around twenty-five of them."
