Chapter 2) Finding out the reason for Willow's horrible conduct.

Today the schools were off, and Giles telephoned Mr. and Mrs. Rosenberg to get the name of the synagogue that they go to and to ask who the Rabbi of that synagogue is" "Excuse me, who's we?" "Myself and just about all of her friends in this area- she's been up to some very bad stuff." "What kind of 'very bad stuff' sir?" "It's too upsetting to get into- just come over and meet me at my store- she'll be there." "OK, I'll see you at about eleven then."

That morning, Willow was dressed in her black jacket and black pants, Tara was in her favorite brown suit, but at about 9:00am the doorbell rang, someone was at the door- and upon opening it- they found a bloke, dressed in a civilian outfit 'Glory Be'" then to Tara, Buffy whispered "A prayer to the Holy Trinity, if he's indeed loyal to God, he will not dare refuse to say it, if not- he's obviously an imposter!" At the mention of a prayer to his most revered Maker, Raphael's eyes lit up with a very intense reverence- and he proceeded: "Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it is now and ever shall be, World Without End. Amen!" (One pointer- if ever encountered by such a being- that's an excellent litmus test.)

Upon entering, Raphael introduced a colleague of his at the door to be someone named 'Dymphna'. Willow, meanwhile, who was in the dining room- walked into sight of the door and spied the young woman, the first thing that Will noticed was the woman's fiery-orangeish-red hair She looks Irish Willow thought, and she was quite astonished when the guest responded to her thoughts with the statement "Indeed I am a Celt- actually biological father was one of the Irish kings from the Middle Ages, he had me killed for refusing to marry him in an incestuous relationship- but that's old data something you Miss Willow Danielle Rosenberg most definitely need!"

Right about now Will's lust took over her mind and heart again when she looked at Tara MacLay, and she was in the process of saying "Hey Lover, Give me some sugar!" (she was about to attack her sexually again!) Tara was now absolutely terrified of her girlfriend, but, she only got through about half of the statement before Raphael said quietly "Be respectful or be silent, Witch!" at which point her voice gave out at just after the 'i' in 'give' she also found herself rising into the air out of her control and turning, till she was face-down, back-up, horizontal and about four-and-a-half feet in the air.

Dymphna turned to Raphael and said "I want to talk to her alone." then to Buffy "Mind if we meet in your kitchen?" "Sure.". This peculiar flotation that Willow was helpless in was ended and she was safely put back on her feet- Dymphna took Willow into the kitchen and began to talk to her it'll never happen." "Oh, and Tara, M. the first time your girlfriend violated you, she did so via a spell, why wouldn't a spell work this time, I wonder?" "Sir" Tara responded "I did my homework, as the saying goes I had learned that she'd been raping other females, and not all of them are gay!" This does indeed strike me as the most horrible perversion possible on this entire planet! This is what you get for dealing with this kind of low-lives, he sighed Well, I took the job- I wanted this assignment, I begged Christ for this assignment, no way am I chickening out now! No, I'll see this through to the end, No Matter What! were the thoughts that passed through Raphael's mind.

Dymphna and Willow then re-entered the living room and it occurred to Willow to remark and ask "I remember a 'Raphael' from the book of Tobit in 'the prophets', anything to do with you?" "In fact, I'm that very same spirit." he responded Anya was behind the checkout counter, her favorite job was as a cashier, Xander, kind of frowning, said "Hello, Willow." it was Giles who began the 'corrections' "Willow" he said "we're all very concerned about you- we've, I've been hearing some very disturbing reports Willow moved to protect her face and Buffy grabbed Willow around the knees- and hoisting her over her right shoulder, physically carried her to the chair (which had no armrests, but was very sturdy), sat her down in it, and sat on her lap, then holding her arms behind the chair she enabled Giles to tie Willow's hands with twine, and Anya, needing no prompting- tied Willow's ankles also with twine. (Buffy was wearing a black sleeveless top and bone-colored skirt with black ladies boots, and her blonde hair was in a ponytail) She was not without compassion for her prisoner- and as her left side was close to Willow, she placed her left arm over Will's shoulders in kind-of a hug!

Willow, however did not think well of this and was in the process of trying to say "Get OFF me, superb*tch" but Dymphna, understanding what language Willow was about to use, raised her right arm and, curling her middle finger- snapped her ring-finger against her thumb their faces were only a few centimeters apart is that what you want?". After a minuet of thinking, Willow swallowed and said "No, I defiantly don't want that, Rabbi." "I know of a facility that we have, it's nearby, you'll be safe there, you can stay there as long as you like- you'll be able to heal you want to help her, speak up!" now the rabbi was getting angry. How dare they let my spiritual daughter go that far astray?! "She started reading the occult for fun she said to me during her High School years." Giles said, head down, now Micah was almost enraged "What?!" he asked.

The Rabbi then asked Willow "If you had fun doing that, what of your 'girlfriend'? Surely she wouldn't condone what I've just seen you do so blatantly?!" Willow was defiant now and, looking right at him, responded "What of her, she's just a pagan gentile, not one of the Lord's people at all!" before Micah could answer, Buffy's sister Dawn accused "You. Lying. Little. Tramp! I had thought that you loved her, and this is how you show love?! Callous Vixen!" "Let me remind you, fallen woman, that there is 1 God, the Lord over All the Earth; therefore All Creatures are His, and while it is true that we are His Chosen People, that does not entitle us to act in whatever way we see fit!" Micah vocally attacked Will's position. "Oh, and, by the way, I will never condone or stop opposing that fallen lifestyle choice!" he said angrily.

Giles, certain that Willow would behave herself now, took a pair of sheers and cut the twine that held Willow's hands and then freed her feet in the same way, just after that Buffy asked "May I please get off Willow now?" (Buffy did not like sitting on her best friend!) to which Giles nodded- Buffy climbed off her, overjoyed.
