Buffy and Dawn went back to the house, while the rest of the scoobies left them alone. Buffy had to explain to Dawn everything that had happened, everyone understood that that was something they had to do alone, so one by one they all trailed back to the magic box.

That is where they where now, all sat around the table in the magic box. Books where piles high on the table, as soon as they had got back Giles had set everyone into full research mode. They where determined to find out where Buffy had been, although tired no one was giving in. So far they had got it down to 500 different dimensions that she could have been in, if they had any hope of helping Buffy they had to get that number down further.
As the sun was just starting to set the bell on the door rang throughout the shop. Everyone turned towards the door just as Buffy walked though the door.

It was Giles who spoke first, “Hello Buffy, how are you feeling, are you sure you should be walking around?” he spoke in hushed tones.

“Giles, I’m not dying... ok you know what I mean. I’m ok.” Buffy smiled at everyone. The smile didn’t hold quite the same sparkle as usual. “I left Dawn at the house, she’s sleeping, I think all the crying has tired her out. She is taking it pretty bad, Giles.”

Once again, Giles took off his glasses and started to clean them. “I well imagine she is, she has already lost you once, Buffy, the thought of losing you again must be hard for her to deal with. It more you I am concerned about, how are you doing in all of this?”

“I’m doing ok… not jumping through hoops or anything but ok. Have you guys found anything?”

Everyone suddenly looked down ashamed to look Buffy in the eye after searching for hours being unable to come up with any concrete answers.

Buffy knew the news was not good when Giles once again started to clean his glasses. “Umm not exactly, Buffy. We don’t have much to go on, just dates and such forth. It would help us if you could maybe try to remember a few details of were you where?”

Buffy took a deep breath and went at sat down at the table.

“Ok… Go ahead I will tell you whatever you want to know about where I was…”

TBC…

I hope that was a better way of ending it.. once again i can appologise enough.. I am stupid I know, i just had a hell of a lot on before i went away!!! Next chapter up in next few days.
