Part One
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Buffy entered the library with her head hanging low. She slowly moped over to a chair and sat down. She didn't need to speak, Giles and Willow could see her screaming, "Ask me what happened."
"Buffy, are you okay? You look a little...upset," Giles finally brought up.
"Snyder caught me trying to get off campus again. Soon, he's going to put a silver plaque at the desk where at sit in detention." Giles and Willow couldn't help but smile. "So, what are my slayage plans tonight?
"Well, patroling. But you should be cautious of..."
"Of Angel. Yeah, I know."
"Dear, dear Angel, such a sweet little boy." A voice came from the doorway of the library. Everyone turned to look as Buffy jumped up to meet girl.
"Who the hell are you?" Buffy glared at the very attractive young girl standing before her.
"I'm a friend."
"Certainly not mine," Buffy threw in with a harsh tone. The girl approached Buffy with a sly grin on her face.
"Oh, Buffy, but you don't even know me yet. So quick to judge a person. You really must work on that."
"Do you wanna tell me what you want before I knock you out cold?" Giles and Willow could only watch from afar. You could see the wheels turning in Giles head as he tried to ponder who was this strange girl who challenged the Slayer.
"I don't want anything, Buffy. Not yet anyway. You know Buffy, you and I, we're the same. Well, kinda. See, your the Slayer, born with the strength and knowlege to fight and kill of vampires, deamons and ghools. Well, so am I, only, I was choosen to work for the other side. I fight and kill the good so that evil may rule.
"Savarah!" Giles gasped as he fell into a chair. He'd heard that she existed but always hoped she wasn't real.
"Good, good, I see we've been doing some reading. But then, when are you not."
"Look, I don't care who you are, I'm still gonna kill you." Buffy continued to stare at Savarah with fire in her eyes.
"Oh, but Slayer...you can't. I'm smarter, and stronger. You'll never kill me." Buffy threw three hard kicks to Savarah's stomach and then a hard backhand to her face as she tried to recover from the blows. Savarah took several steps back but showed no sign of pain. Buffy pulled a stake from her shirt sleeve and thrust it directly into Savarah's chest. The stake caused Savarah to stumble a few steps before pulling it out of her chest. Buffy looked to Giles for help but found nothing. When she returned her eyes' on Savarah, she saw the gaping wound repair itself in seconds.
"Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you, I'm immortal. You can't kill me. Isn't that just the coolest?" Buffy didn't have words to express her feelings of anger towards this creature that stood before her.
"Immortality never stopped me from killing anyone before."
"In due time, we'll find out my dear. Right now, I have some friends to visit. I do believe you know them. Angel, Spike and Drusilla are expecting me. It's been ages since I've seen dear old Angelus. I wonder if he's still as bad as he used to be? Oh well, I'll find out soon enough." Buffy's face faded from anger to fear and jelousy. As much as she hated the evil Angelus, she would always love Angel.
Savarah disapeared out of the room.

"You know Dru, Spike's a big boy, he doesn't need your pity. You could be doing more important things...with me." A large grin came over Angel's face as he entered the wherehouse. Drusilla was sitting on Spike's lap cuddling close.
"Angel, I do believe we were here first. Why don't you go somewhere else."
"Don't mind him, Angel, he's just a little crabby as usual." Drusilla coyly stroked Spike's face with her fingers.
"When is he not crabby?" A girls' voice came from the shadows of the room. "If I remember right, that's what made him so good at what he did." Savarah stepped out of the shadows and strolled over to the group who was standing by the large dining table.
Angel's face lit up as he watched her come into the light. "Savarah!"
"Angel," Savarah spoke fondly. "It's been way too long." She steped up to Angel and looked deep into his eyes. He wrapped his arms around her and then they kissed, passionately. A large smile came over Spike's face as he watched them kiss. He knew that with Savarah here, Angel would be too busy to even think about Dru.
"Oh, get a room, you two! I know it's been a while, but please, there are others here." The two reluctantly broke away from their kiss but remained tight in eachother's arms.
"Spike, that wheelchair, it's so not you. You really should get out of that thing.
"I don't suppose you could help with that?" Spike spoke eagerly.
"It's a possibility." Spike and Drusilla smiled with excitement.
"So, I met this, Slayer...she's good, but I can't stand the attitude."
"What are your plans for her, Savarah?" Drusilla asked still on Spike's lap.
"Oh, I was thinking somewhere along the lines of a long painful death. How's that sound to you guys?"
They all began to laugh hystarically.

"Who's Savarah?" Giles sat quietly still in shock from momments ago. "Giles, wake up, who is Savarah?!?"
"Uh, what? Oh, yes, Savarah. She's well, uh, someone I never really knew existed. I only heard myths about her existance but, never in my life as a watcher did I think she'd..." He faded off into his worries.
"Giles, that's not helping."
"Well, she's a creature of the darkness and yet she's not a vampire or demon. She is 100% human and 100% evil. She's never lost a battle."
"Hey guys!" Xander strolled into the library with Cordelia on his arm. Oz was following after them. After viewing the frightened look upon their faces Xander began to worry. "Hey, is everything okay?"
"No...not at all okay. Things are not okay. Okay, is not what everything is right now." Willow sat impatientenly in her seat waiting for someone to comfort her. Oz rushed to her side.
"Will, relax, everything will be just fine. That is as soon as someone tells me what will be just fine? Someone wanna fill me in here," Oz snapped.
Buffy and Giles fill Xander, Oz and Cordelia in on what just happened.
"Okay, so we have an immortal demon that wants to kill Buffy and has some sort of strong alliance with vampires."
"Xander, you sure have a way of making things sound a whole lot worse."
"Oh, sorry Buffy."
"Giles, I need you to find anything you can on this girl. There has got to be a way to kill her."
"Right."
"We've got a lot of work to do, so lets get busy before this girl goes on a killing spree."
