In the library a few hours later everyone is found sitting at the big table including Dawn, Buffy, Xander, Willow, Cordelia, Angel and Giles.
Dawn was just opening the game at that moment when Cordelia said "Why am I here?"
When it was open Dawn looked at Cordelia "To play the game." Looking at the board she noticed seven pieces lying down and one standing up which seemed not to move at all. She tried to pick up the piece just for it not to bunch an inch then she looked at the rules and read out "ADVENTURERS BEWARE. DO NOT BEGIN UNLESS YOU INTEND TO FINISH. FOR THE EXCITING CONSEQUENCES WILL ONLY VANISH WHEN A PLAYER HAS REACHED JUMANJI AND CALLS OUT ITS NAME."
Buffy looks at the game then says "It seems too weird."
Just then Dawn handed everyone a piece even Giles having one left for herself as well "Perfect." Looking at the other piece she then says "Who is that ones?"
Angel also looked at the piece then explained to Dawn "No ones it's just stuck."
When Angel looks at her Buffy says "I really don't think it's a coincidence that the game has seven pieces for us all you know."
They all place their pieces on the board just to have them place themselves in the correct places "Ok now that was weird." Xander looks at everyone else "It was."
Dawn passed Giles the dice saying "Oldest should go first." Then she looks at everyone else "We go by age."
Everyone laughs then, most looking at Angel who has a smug grin on his face as he technically is the oldest but Dawn doesn't know that.
Giles stands up getting a piece of paper and a pen writing down the order in Dawn's terms
Giles
Angel
Buffy
Xander
Cordelia
Willow
Dawn
He passes to Dawn then asks "Is that right?"
Dawn nods then motions for him to start the game.
Thinking nothing would happen he rolled the dice he reached over was about to move his piece when it moved itself four spaces Dawn then looked at the green forming in the black centre and reads it aloud "At night they fly, you better run. These winged things are not much fun."
"What does that mean?" Once Xander had said that noises began in Giles office, when he opened the door he ducked with everyone else when bats upon bats flew out and into the library, once the coast was clear they all went back to their seats.
"Bats is what it meant Xander." Looking at the game he added "I would advise we stop but as it read only will those disappear once the game is over we should carry on."
Dawn looked at Buffy "You'll protect me won't you?"
Buffy nodded then handed Angel the dice when he rolled his piece it moved itself "I think they all do that so you can't cheat."
He leant over and read what it said "A tiny bite can make you itch, make you sneeze, make you twitch." He looks at Buffy "Clues the game works in clues or riddles."
Buffy nodded and noticed everyone looking around them she actually got up to the weapon closet where she got a bat from it noticing that would be the only one she could use in front of Dawn, she was about to sit down again when she heard the sound of wings flapping very fast like the wings on a fly.
Xander then shouted "Buffy behind you."
Turning around Buffy hit the big bug out of the window where the others followed, looking around she says "I don't like this game." Seeing Dawn shaking she went and hugged her "It's ok once this is over we'll be fine."
Taking the dice in her hand she rolls them getting a two "This will not be an easy mission. Monkeys slow the expedition."
Taking Dawn with her they all begin checking for the monkeys just to hear Cordelia scream running back into the room and closing the door to the library "They left the high school."
Everyone looked at each other then Xander said "Does it have to be me?" Seeing them look at him he rolls the dice "Their boisterous laughing does provoke. In this adventure, they tell no joke." He looks at it again "We need to lock all doors to this room."
Once everyone has they begin hearing laughing to which Xander says "Why did I have to get the one with Hyena's." Seeing everyone look at him he says "Right yes I know why but I don't like being reminded of it."
Cordelia grabs the dice after everyone has made sure nothing could get in the room also when they heard the hyena's retreating away from the high school. "I am not going to be scared by a game." Rolling them she gets eleven "Splintered rafters all around. Duck them or they'll pin you down."
"Okay what does that mean?" Just to answer Cordelia the wood in the ceiling began falling down and wood also falls through the glass roof.
Angel grabs the board then joins everyone in the corner closest to the door but beyond the door he could hear wood falling "It seems to happening all the way through the high school." Looking at Buffy he adds "Let's hope we don't have to run from anything." Just then all the bookcases began to fall, once the last one fell to the ground the sound of anything falling stopped.
Looking around Willow asked "Can we have a break?"
Giles nodded "I think we should." Not noticing Angel getting the board earlier he asks "Where's the game?" Angel shows it him "Yes we should keep that with us at all times for I fear something from the game may try to stop us from winning by taking it from us."
Buffy looks at Angel then "When we are not playing you keep a good hold on it."
Twenty minutes later Buffy looked at Willow "I think you should roll now." Dawn looked at Buffy "We need to finish the game Dawnie."
Dawn nods then says "I wish I never found it."
Willow laughs lightly "I think we all do but we don't blame you Dawn we blame the game."
Everyone nodded at that when they saw the look on Dawn's face.
Angel opened the game just to have Willow role the dice getting the number six but if it was a double she would go again but since she got four and two she just gets one turn "They march and eat and march and eat. If I were you, I'd watch my feet." Willow thinks for a second before she says "Sit on tables quick." Everyone does when she explains "It means army ants."
Then see hundreds of ants on the ground marching from under the bookcases to out the door of the library, it seems Willow was correct in making their feet or body not in their path otherwise this would have angered them. "Oh sure you get the ants one why not the more creepy ones like the rest of us." Willow glares at Cordelia when she says this.
