When Buffy got out of class she decided to go to Giles’ house to look up the demon in her dream. She got to Giles’ and knocked on the door. After about 20 seconds Giles came to the door with a book in his hand as always.
“Oh, hello Buffy, what are you doing here?” Giles asked with wonder.
“Hello Giles, nice to see you too, I’m fine thanks for asking,” Buffy said with sarcasm.
“Oh, right, sorry, please come in.” Giles opened the door wider and moved aside to let Buffy in.
Buffy walked into Giles’ stuffy house. As soon as she walked in she heard Spike yelling from the bathroom, “Hey…where’s my blood, library boy? I’m sodding hungry.”
“I see Spike is being a gentleman as usual,” she looks into the hallway and yells, “Shut up Spike, you’ll get blood when we feel like giving it to you.”
Spike yelled back, “Oh great…the slayers here, bloody brilliant.
Buffy and Giles yell in unison, “Shut up Spike!”
“You know, I don’t know why we can’t just stake him, and why does he have to stay with me anyway?” Giles wined.
Buffy looked at him disappointed and annoyed, “Hi, six year old version of Giles, can we get back to why I’m hear, it’s important.”
“Oh, yes, what is it that you needed?” Giles asked as he cleaned his glasses with a white handkerchief.
“I need to look up a demon by the name of…Morah, I think it was.”
Giles looked slightly confused. Buffy usually came to him trying to figure out the name of a demon she had just fought. She would usually give him a discription of the demon and they would look it up to find it's name and some more information about it. He couldn’t remember a time when she actually knew the name of the demon when she first met it. “Right…should be in this book here,” Giles walked to his shelf and took the book they needed and placed it on the table.
They flipped to the page with the Morah demon and started reading. Giles hesitantly spoke up, “Buffy where you attacked by one of these Morah demons?”
Buffy knew that Giles probably wouldn’t believe her if she said that she had a dream she thought was real so she did the only other thing she could think of…she lied, “Yeah, the other night one attacked me while I was on patrol.”
Giles still wasn’t convinced, “Yes, right, how did you know what it was then?”
Buffy was hopping to avoid this question. She thought very hard for an excuse. Finally she decided to just go for half the truth, “well, remember when I told you I got attacked with Angel when I was visiting in L.A.?”
“Yes…oh I see…he told you what it was and so you recognized it then?” Giles said, actually believing that was all there was to it.
Buffy, knowing he bought it, said, “Yup…that’s exactly what happened.”
As they read on they found out that the Morah demon’s blood had regenerative powers and that it could only be killed by smashing its thousand eyes. Giles didn't know what that ment...but Buffy remembered it from her dream. She also remembered that when the demon attacked her and Angel in L.A., Angel killed it by smashing the gem on it's head. She assumed that was it's thousand eyes.
“So when it says regenerative…it just means that he…or…it I guess, can regenerate itself when it’s been injured?” Buffy asked knowing in her heart that there was more to it.
“Well yes…in a way. I believe there may be more to it though.” Giles said still staring at the text in the book.
Buffy looked at him curiously, “What do you mean?”
“The Morah’s blood, from what I’ve gathered, appears to be very powerful. It almost seems as if…” Giles trailed off as if even he was unsure of what he was about to say.
“As if what?” Buffy said, anxious to hear what he was trying to say.
Giles looked puzzled for a second and then finally continued, “It’s almost as if this demon’s blood not only regenerates but gives life. It regenerates itself but it also seems that it's blood could also regenerate anyone or anything else that its blood would mix with.”
As Giles said this, Buffy knew what it meant. She now, more then ever believed that her dream was real. She could feel it in her heart. The dream was real, it really happened, and she knew it.
“I need to go,” Buffy said with a confused look on her face.
Giles looked even more confused then she was, “What? Wait where are you going, I don’t understand.”
Buffy looked at him with the kind of look a young girl gives to her father, “Don’t worry, I’ll explain everything when I figure out what’s going on myself.”
Giles just looked at her, very confused, but he knew whatever it was she needed to do, she needed to do it alone. She walked out the door with a determined look on her face.
Buffy now knew that her dream was real. Even though she only had a small amount of evidence she could just feel that it was real. She was on her way to L.A., she wanted answers and she was going to find them…no matter what.
