"We have a situation," said Travers sitting down and joining Giles on the couch who rubbed his glasses.

"The Council can use your Slayer's help in dispatching this new bad."

"Buffy will be unhappy..."

"I know she doesn't want to work with the Council, but as you can see, Sunnydale is in complete darkness and by the time this new evil surges, it'll be swallowed into a big cater."

"If the Slayer doesn't help, many will die."

Giles: We will do what we can.

Buffy paid them a little visit. She knocked and Giles was equally shocked to see her outfit. And Xander/Willow, they looked like a Halloween horror pair dressed in things that couldn't be called 'clothes.'

Spike hung back and got a kick out of this.

He was chuckling as the Watcher lost all control. "What on God's Earth...!?" "What, 'we've' decided 'we' wanted a change."

"Can we come in or is this house blocked for Vampires...?" "Vamp- Buffy!" "Surprised you didn't have that Vampire detector on."

He pulled the Stake close. And also, whipped out a Cross.

"Get out of here!"

She yawned. "And kill me with a fake stake...? Giles. What you're holding is just a piece of plastic." They fought him and got to Travers who stood up.

He had a crossbow. Buffy weakly yanked it out of his hand. "Nuh uh, we don't play bad."

They straddled Giles and fixed the chains. Then, fished out something out of their bag. A magic laced knife called the Kraliak.

She nodded at it, fascinated. "It's dipped in Holy Water. For humans... Willow..., care to play with your new toy...?"

She smiled. "Thank you for the present. Now Giles, you've been a bad boy. Must teach you a lesson..."

She faced Quentin. "And please don't bring your Council squad. They can't save your screams..."
