The sweet aroma of hot chocolate and biscotti intoxicated the air of Jake’s Bakery as

both Buffy and Willow sat at the counter, sipping cappuccinos

as they both were plunging into their own thoughts, pondering

about last night’s strange events. The sounds of clutter and chatting that surrounded them filled the air, along

with the aromatic smells of brownies and cake as a nervous feeling began to fill Buffy’s heart in confusion.


“Come on Buffy. You know I would never sneak into your room uninvited. Even if I wanted to I would never do such a thing like that and you know it,” Willow squealed, taking

a bite out of her chocolate muffin, her green eyes widened

in complete surprise and shock at her best friend.

Buffy only stared at her best friend, knowing in her heart

Willow couldn’t have done this, even if she was the prankster of the two.

“Yeah, I guess you’re right. If it wasn’t you, then who the hell was in my room last night?” she questioned, puzzled.

“Maybe it was a stranger that has a big crush on you but doesn‘t have the guts to tell you face to face,” Willow teased, a wicked smile tugging her lips.

“Stop it Will. You know damn well that I have Angel. I don‘t need anyone else,” Buffy replied playfully.


“Yea I know you do and you guys look so sweet together, but you haven’t you told him yet about… you know what?” Willow asked seriously.


Buffy sighed, exasperated at the question that was being

thrown at her, but she decided to answer truthfully to her friend.

“No. How can I? if I tell him, he wouldn’t want to ever see me again and plus, he’ll think I’m some kind of freak from outer space or something.

"I’m scared if someone finds out about my deepest, darkest secret and it will just suck if they do. Haven’t you told your mom about yours yet?” Buffy asked Will.

“Uh no. Well… she kinda knows that I have powers. My ability to time travel or whatever you want to call it.”
Buffy just

nodded, sighing once more before she took a sip of her coffee.

“Hey if you want, we can go back to last night to see whoever was following you,” Willow

suggested happily, standing before her friend as she clutched her arm tightly.

“No I don’t think so Will,” Buffy answered stubbornly, crossing her arms.

The last thing she wanted was to relive the events of last night.

“Aw c’mon Buffy! If we don’t go, you won’t be able to get this off your mind.

"Don’t you want to know who really is stalking you?” Willow questioned.

Buffy raised her eyebrows, knowing in her mind that Willow was right.

She fixed her tank top, then nodded reluctantly, letting Willow take her arm.

“I guess you’re right. Remember to kick your ass after we come back,” Buffy smiled evilly.

“Whatever you say. Bitch,” Willow mumbled under her breath, laughing to herself.

“What did you just call me?” Buffy raised her brow jokingly, stifling a laugh.

“Nothing,” Willow cried. Both girls stood in the corner of the shop

so no one could watch them as the hands of Willow’s watch

began to move, the watch itself glowing in the dark as

a tunnel began to open before their eyes. A rotten cabbage like

smell began to engulf both Willow and Buffy as nausea began to fill Buffy’s stomach.


they both held hands as they were being sucked rapidly into the tunnel, black smoke filling their lungs with such distaste and revulsion.

"Damn i hate coming into the tunnel," Buffy complained.

Willow was used to the rotten smells. It was her power after all. "Quit complaning Buffy. We're almost there," Willow yelled.

Before Buffy could open her mouth to complain once more, she and Willow both landed on solid concrete with a loud and heavy thud.

"Oh," Buffy mumbled, feeling the flow of blood dropping from a cut on her cheek.

"Sorry," Willow said, wiping away excess gravel from her clothes.

They were back to the night Buffy was followed.

Everything was the same. It was night, cold, and silent.

Just a few feet away Buffy could see herself walking towards

the way to her house, not noticing that a black shadow was following her.

she heard herself call out Willow's name, thinking it was just a joke, but no one answered her call.

Both girls hid behind a two story house as they saw the black shadow getting more closer to the other Buffy.

Instinctively, Buffy noticed that there was something wrong. Something that shouldn't have happened that night but did.

The black shadow sensed a presence behind it. Slowly it

turned its head but the girls could see it was dressed in a dark coat and hat.

The shadow stared directly at them and the girls knew they were caught.

Before they could move, the black shadow whispered in Buffy's mind.

"I'll find you when you're alone," the shadow whispered before it disappeared into the darkness...
