The Doctor released the sobbing girl and left her in the hands of her friends.

Wesley sprinted back into the school, two minutes later he came back out.

"They're gone." Willow released another heart wrenching sob.

"Doctor do we have a plan?" Donna asked quietly.

"The plan Donna, was to get the Sontaran to talk," The Doctor whispered his voice and eyes filled with more emotion than Donna had ever heard or seen. "The plan was to make sure all of these children made it through this apocalypse alive!" He closed his eyes and leaned against the TARDIS, "And now I've failed at both."

Giles approached the two, he pinched the bridge of his nose to stop the tears that were threatening to spill over. Giles had been oddly fond of the young werewolf, finding his ability to keep calm and offer light humour during any situation something to be respected for; if anything from this plane, another or hell itself had harmed that boy he would see to it that, it's death would be slow and excruciatingly painful.

"What did that demon do with Oz?" Giles asked.

"He's not a demon." The Doctor said.

Giles eyes flashed dangerously, "I don't care what the bloody thing is! It's threatening our home and attacking my friends! As far as I'm concerned it deserves to die."

"He's right Giles, we can't kill them," Buffy said joining them. "They have souls."

"Screw their souls!" Faith growled.

"Faith." Buffy said with a hint of warning in her voice.

"No Buffy that thing killed Oz, don't you get it? Giles is right it deserves to die, And you know what I don't care about its soul if it's gonna go around murdering innocent people, I'm gonna do my job B whether you like it or not." Faith stared around at the group.

"We don't know if it killed him, Faith," Buffy's voice was low, "Right Doctor?" The Doctor said nothing, "Doctor?"

The Doctors sorrow filled eyes stared out at nothing before snapping to Buffy's tense face.

"Right."

Buffy stared at the man, his voice and eyes betrayed him; she could see that he no more believed Oz was still alive than she did. Then The Doctor did something bizarre even for Sunnydale standards: he stepped inside a big blue box and closed the doors.

"Umm... Is he ok?" Donna ignored the question instead she stepped into the box behind him. "Has-has this always been here?"

"Should we- should we open the door?" Giles asked uncertainly.

"A man and woman go into such a small space together, seems a little too intimate for me, but hey if you want to, be my guest G." Faith said.

Giles's hand hovered over the door handle for a split second he hesitated before pushing the door open.

Everyone gasped. One by one they entered the TARDIS.

"It's bigger on the inside." They said in unison. A knock on the door brought them out of their awed state. Cordelia pulled the TARDIS door open.

Angel leaned a hand against an invisible barrier that no one else had any trouble passing through, "I take it this is your home?"

"Oh so the whole vampires can't enter without an invitation is true is it?"

"Vampire?" Donna stared. "He's a vampire!"

"Yes and I invite you in." The sudden disappearance of the barrier caused Angel to fall face first onto the TARDIS's floor.

"Way to go Mr. Macho." Cordelia snorted holding out a hand to their fallen companion.

"He's a vampire. You let me walk beside a vampire, sit beside a vampire, talk to a vampire!"

"I was going to tell you, and you can't blame me for the way you've been acting; it's not my fault you go gaga for every handsome face that passes you by."

"OI, watch what you say spaceman. He's a vampire, can we trust him?"

"Not really." Giles and Xander muttered.

"Hey, I have a soul." Angel looked hurt.

"A vampire... with a soul... named Angel, of course what's next a ghost named Dennis?"

Slowly he pulled himself out of his sleep, immediately he wished he hadn't.

Oz was inside a small dank holding cell, his arms were chained together by some sort of red alien looking handcuffs. Across from his cell, Oz could see two vampires and a large hairy demon, all in their own cell. Standing at the entrance to the dungeon was a Haborym demon, each of its heads wore what looked like a collar.

A Sontaran came into view; eliciting a growl from the guard, the Sontaran pressed a button on his arm. All three collars began to vibrate causing the Haborym to sink to its knees and howl in pain. So it's just as much of a prisoner as I am.

The Sontaran stopped outside his cell.

"SO THE BEAST IS AWAKE IS IT?"

"Yep it looks that way. There's no chance I could get a pair of pants is there? I mean don't get me wrong I'm all for the nudist's way of life, it's just you know kind of drafty."

The Sontaran pressed another button on his arm; the collar that Oz hadn't realized he was wearing vibrated causing Oz to topple over and let out a loud scream. As soon as the pain stopped the Sontaran spoke

"YOU'LL SPEAK WHEN YOU ARE ASKED TO SPEAK," He leered down at Oz, "Like a good dog."

Chapter 6 may take awhile I've gotta focus on school now
