Jonathan had been walking the streets, and hadn't realized that he'd walked
all the way to the Magic Box. He looked up, surprised with himself. He saw that
the lights were still on, and crossed the street, walking up to the door.

Opening the door, he stepped in. Everyone turned to look who had entered.

"Jonathan," Buffy whispered.

"What are you doing here," Xander asked,snidely.



"I…I…don't know," Jonathan walked back outside and Buffy followed him.



"Jonathon, wait," Buffy called out.



Turning around, Jonathan had a frightened looked on his face. He thought that
the slayer was gonna kick his ass.



Sensing his worry, Buffy smiled, and he relaxed a bit.



"Don't worry, I'm not gonna kick your ass…yet!"



"Ok," he stuttered.



"Come back inside," She said.



"I'd rather not."



"Ok, why don't you start with why you're here?"



"I…I am really about everything. I never meant for it go as far as it has. I
just…I just want out."



"This is not some lame attempt to get my guard up, is it?" "

No not, at all." Jonathan shifted at bit, putting his hands in his pants
pockets.

"Better not be!"

"I assure you, it isn't. They don't even know where I'm at."

"And why are you here?"

"I'm here to tell you were Andrew and Warren are at."

"Oh!" Buffy said, intrigued.

As Jonathan was explaining everything to her, she was making a mental note of
everything. And when was finished, he walked home, and she headed back
inside.

"Time to take care of Warren," she annouced, grabbing what she could in
weapons, just in case demons could pop up.

"Where's Jonathan?" Xander asked, a little too harshly.

He'd been still reeling for the Spike and Buffy are item now news. He just
didn't know when to keep his mouth shut.

"He went home."

"What? You let him go?" Xander asked,incredulously.



Glaring at him, Buffy said, "I can't believe you're still on about Spike and
I being together…Get over it!"

Turning her gaze to Willow, Buffy said, "Let's go, I might need your help
with Warren, if he decides to do something magical."

"Ok," Willow said, getting up, not wanting to start another argument.

Xander kept his mouth shut for the time being.

"Anya, take Dawn home, and you and Xander keep an eye on her, ok?" Buffy
asked.

Shaking her head yes, and turning to Dawn, Buffy said, "Ok...Behave Dawn!"

Dawn ignored her sister and rolled her eyes. I don't need a babysitter. I can
stay home by myself!

With that Buffy and Willow left, heading to Warren's house.When the slayer
and the witch arrived, it was too late. Warren and Andrew were gone. There were
papers scattered all around, left in their hasty exit.

Willow bent down, picking up a few things, and looked up at Buffy, showing
her what she'd found. "

They must have figured Jonathan would squeal and left," Buffy surmised.

"Yeah, and it looks like they left theiritinerary."

Willow handed it over, and Buffy took it. She quickly scanned it over. It
listed a bank robbery to a museum heist.

"At least we know what they'v ebeen up to, and where they might do next,"
said Buffy. "Let's gather up whatever we can, and head back to the house to go
through everything."

After awhile they'd picked up every piece that they could and headed back to
the house. Anya and Xander were on the sofa watching TV,when Buffy and Willow
entered the house.

"They were gone," Willow announced, sitting next to Xander.

"It was set up?" He asked. "I knew it!"

"Apparently not, they'd left all this," She replied.

Buffy and Willow set the papers on the coffee table. Buffy yawned and Willow
told her to go upstairs.

"Are you sure?" Buffy asked, hoping they wouldn't need her. She had to go see
Spike and make sure that he was ok. She had to apologize some how.

"Yeah, just go, we'll take care of this," Willow told her.

"Ok, well, I'm gonna check on Dawn, and take shower, then just go to bed."

On the way to the stairs, she said, "Let me know what you find out." Then she
disappeared. She headed to Dawn's room, and checked on her. Thankfully, she
was still sleeping. She then went to her room,and climbed out the window,
heading to Spike's crypt.
