Summary: Rewrite of season 1 with Giles as the Big Bad.
Master List for In a Corner of My Soul (previous chapters / scenes)
Note: This is the last scene of the Angel chapter; see you again in I Robot; You Jane

( Buffy leaned across the fence and scanned the grassy – um – grass, the dark rocks looming overhead, as well as the shortish water slide. The zoo really was dead at night. The otters were either invisible in the dark or off someplace where she couldn't see them, most likely the second. Otters were too cute to be demonic. )

( One wall of the Ashworth family library had been denuded of books to create a gallery for the taxidermal invasion otherwise known as the old mad Lord's unfortunate obsession with the avian physique. A good third of the books had been moved to what had once been a minor drawing room. Antonia, unfortunately, did not have the authority to return the books to their rightful place. Her father-in-law had stipulated in his will that his heir leave the birds on display exactly as they'd been in his lifetime. Her dear departed Vernon had made no such stipulation in his will but Cecil would not be moved on the subject. His grandfather had wanted the birds on display in the library; there they would remain. )

Note: Many thanks to Gill O. for pointing out Long John Silver had a peg-leg and not an eye patch. Buffy's mistake was originally mine.

( At last he had the ritual, and now, once he had the Amulet of Dominion, he could destroy both Angelus and the Master. He could rip away their strength, leaving them defenseless against even a mere human. )

( Jenny, peering through the window in the door of the library, found Rupert lost in a dusty volume. Of course he was, she thought. He could be a real fuddy-duddy but then, rarely but it did happen, something in him switched on the sex appeal. )

( As Buffy pushed the library doors, swinging them open, she noticed that Giles didn't glance up from whatever dusty old book he'd gotten caught up in. It was nice not dealing with his snark first thing in the morning, but she'd meant to come in late, unlike most mornings when it just happened, and she'd meant for him to notice. How was she supposed to yell at him for riling up Willow with his big anti-Angel lecture if he couldn't even be bothered to look up from his book? )

( As Willow glanced around the Bronze for a table, she felt, well, not afraid exactly because Buffy was standing right next to her, but it was scarier here after hearing Giles' lecture on Angelus' evil ways and also because Buffy had almost died here, and how could Buffy have let Angelus just walk away anyway? “Is it usually this dark?” )

( So much of the world hid its deadly nature behind a mask, Bob thought as he looked over a tray of substances collected from the earth's deadlier offspring. The Amanita genus of mushrooms includes death caps which are also known as destroying angels for their deceptively innocent facade. John Crow beads, bright red seeds, especially attractive to children, sometimes worn as jewelry to deadly effect, kill after several days of nausea, vomiting, and convulsions. )

( Dodging the nursing staff was more difficult than it should have been. “Giles,” Buffy insisted, “you passed out. You need to see a doctor.” Facing outward to address the room, she shouted. “Can we get some help here?” )

( Giles found himself clambering after Buffy through a chain link fence. What the hell had he been thinking, allowing Rupert to follow Buffy into such an obvious trap? Not that he could allow her to go alone, obviously. “Buffy, could we have at least tried a less surreptitious approach?” )

Note: Thanks to Gill O and Il Mio Capitano for help with terms Giles might use for a police officer.

( The nurse had refused to answer Rupert's questions, leaving him ignorant of Mrs. Summers' status, but had directed him to the fifth floor waiting area. She hadn't warned him about the copper. Before Rupert could swerve down another hall, Kris Mansfield had spotted him and waved him over. “Mr. Giles, thank goodness you're here.” She called to him loudly, destroying any chance he'd had of concealing his presence from the officer she was chatting with. )

Scene summary: Buffy's not the one to find her mother after Darla drained her

( As Owen climbed the steps to the front door, he hoped it'd be Buffy, and not her mother, who answered. Parents didn't seem to like poets and, granted, he wasn't a poet himself but he seemed to be tarred with the same brush. It wasn't fair. They all just assumed he'd go all Byron on their girls, but Emily Dickinson had been a virgin her whole life and she was as much a poet as Byron. Maybe Buffy hadn't mentioned the poetry to her mother. )
