Disclaimer: Don't own anything, though wouldn't it be brilliant if I did?
The Doctor smiled remembering the last time he had gone undercover into a school, he highly doubted that Sarah Jane would be here but he decided to keep an eye out for any of his other old companions just in case.
He pushed open one of the doors leading into the library. It appeared to be completely empty.
"Hello? Anybody in here?" The Doctor glanced around, when he had asked a few students where the library was none of them seemed to know, it appeared that neither did the librarian. The Doctor decided to browse the shelves in case the librarian had just stepped out.
Beelzebub's Guide to Demon Species of North America.
101 Ways to slay a Fyral Demon,
Proper Werewolf Grooming Techniques.
The Doctor read each title with interest. "Am I in the occult section?"
"Hello?" A small voice called. "I-is something here?"
The Doctor poked his head around the shelf; a man in a 3-peice tweed suit stood behind the check-out counter sipping from a small polystyrene foam cup.
"Yes hello, hi I'm the- the Mr. Smith."
"The Mr. Smith?"
The Doctor grimaced, this is going to be hard to explain. He thought to himself, luckily he was saved from having to explain as at that moment Buffy and her friends paraded into the library.
"Giles we have big spud problems of the major kind." Buffy announced not noticing her faux English teacher standing by the stacks.
"Ehm Buffy." Giles gave a pointed glance towards The Doctor. Buffy stared at her teacher.
"Oh umm. we're in the- the Sunnydale High gardening club." She said her voice going high again.
The Doctor smiled glancing at the four students who had followed her in. The red-headed girl named Willow, Xander Harris, the girl named Cordy and bored looking fellow he had yet to meet.
The door burst open again this time revealing a severe looking man in a crisp black suit carrying a large booked labelled: 17th century Demons.
"Buffy how many times must I remind you not to start these meetings without me?" Following the gaze of everyone else's he spotted the other man standing in the room. "That is the meeting of the the-" The man glanced down at the book in his hands. "The Sunnydale High ancient occult studies club."
"Really? I thought it was the gardening club?"
"It is." Willow piped up, her eyes abnormally large. "It's the Sunnydale High ancient occult gardening club."
"We call it Shaogc for short." the spiky red-headed boy said in a serious voice.
"N-n-not that we actually practice occult gardening it's just a study of the theory and stuff." Buffy nervously explained.
"Well alrighty then, I suppose I should leave you to it." The Doctor said cheerfully. "Have a good Shaogc meeting."
"We will!" Buffy called after him.
Something fishy was going on in this town and The Doctor wasn't going to leave till he got to the bottom of it.
Just. Bloody. Perfect. He got to play teacher all day and what does she get stuck doing? She gets to serve non-alcoholic drinks to underage teenagers who don't even tip well!
Donna glanced over at the group still sitting where she had last seen them watching the band playing. Dingoes ate my baby, honestly what an absurd name for a band.
Donna had spent the entire day snooping the town, it seemed like most small towns the only thing the caught her attention was when she had read the newspaper: two-thirds of it had been devoted to missing persons. None of the residents seemed to be willing to admit that their friends and family were even gone. They acted as though these kind of things happened everyday... which apparently in this town they did!
Donna and The Doctor had met after the school hours and he told her all about the strange encounters with the group, he then asked if she would find a way to keep an eye on them without looking to conspicuous, so she figured why not make some cash along the way. So far she's been harassed by three of The Bronze's patrons and had a girl who clearly could not hold her alcohol vomit all over her new shoes.
The band ended their set. Oz nodded to his band mates then hopped off stage and joined the others. Willow leaned into her boyfriend.
"Hey Oz, we were planning on heading to the library to do some more research, Giles thinks he might have found a lead."
"Sounds good will there be doughnuts?"
Buffy nodded. "I'm going to do some patrolling then I'll get the heaven sent pastries and join you all there in an hour or so, Kay?"
Donna watched as the group prepared to leave, quickly she slipped out behind them. She peered at them curiously; four of them seemed to be heading in the direction of the school while the smallest girl in the group was headed in the other direction all alone. Donna decided to follow the girl, it wasn't safe to walk around at night and since Donna had experience in dealing with dangerous situations she would certainly be able to help the girl out.
"Hey scoobies!" A familiar voice called out to the group. "What's going on?"
"Hey Faith." Xander nodded to her. "We're all just headed to the school to do some research. There's a new big bad in town and we're trying to figure out why, wanna join us? There'll be doughnuts."
Faith shrugged, "Got nothing better to do. This nights been a totally bust, it's like every vamp in town has high-tailed it out of here or something."
As the scoobies neared the library they heard raised voices.
"For the last time, Wesley, I have already read the Balam scrolls and I assure you, there is no mention of any potato shaped, metal wearing demon anywhere in it!"
"Well I am telling you, Mr. Giles, to check again!"
"Ok, I'm going to intercept here before this turns physical." Oz said stepping between the watcher and ex-watcher, both who were very red in the face. Giles was vigorously wiping his glasses.
"You know you should listen to your colleague there, I too have read the Balam scrolls and there aren't any Sontarans in it last time I checked," The Doctor interjected stepping out from his hiding place, "Although I was only 645 then so there may have been."
"You know about the scrolls?" Giles said mildly surprised.
"Of course," He said cockily straightening his tie, "I'm The Doctor, I know everything."
"So what are you like a Watcher or something?" Cordelia asked.
The Doctor squinted at her,"What's a Watcher?"
Buffy had been walking for a little while, when her Slayer senses suddenly kicked in. "Ok, whatever's following me, you'd better show yourself 'cause I know you're there!" She said turning to face her adversary. Donna stepped out of the shadows.
"Who are you and why are you following me?" Buffy asked immediately preparing for combat.
"Sorry, my name's Donna Noble, I didn't mean to frighten you it's just it's not very safe for a girl to be walking around alone at this time of night."
"Trust me, I can take care of myself." Buffy replied. "And I wasn't frightened."
"Well, I'm sure you think you're safe but-" Buffy grabbed Donna and threw her to the side. Donna gasped at the small girls strength and sudden aggression. Landing on her hands and knees Donna glanced around to see where Buffy had gone.
Buffy was in hand to hand combat with a six foot man who had a strange looking face. Donna was certain that the man would murder the blonde girl but this wasn't the case; within seconds Buffy had the man pinned against a wall, Donna watched as the girl pulled something out of her pocket and slam it into the man's heart.
Rushing to the older woman's side Buffy helped her back to her feet, something she seemed to be doing a lot that day. "Are you alright?"
"That- that- that man, he was-was-" Donna stuttered staring at the dust that moments before had been a human being.
"A gang member on PSP?"
"What did you do to him? One minute he was standing there and the next he was a pile of ash!"
"Dust actually- I mean that was just a trick of the light, you hit your head, this is all a dream?"
"I need The Doctor."
Buffy nodded. "Yeah it'd be a good idea if we got you to a doctor."
"No, I need THE Doctor.
"The Doctor? Doctor who?"
