Chapter Two
The thing with Dawn, was she was very territorial. She was too mad at Connor for her anger to have anything to do with him. Here was a very strange girl, she didn’t know, just barging into her room. Dawn pushed Connor away from her and stood up, eyes never leaving the girl in front of her. She looked at Connor and without warning, slapped across the face. Now normally, her punches didn’t have an effect on anyone, but in this particular moment...things were different. Instead of Connor barely feeling this slap, he actually went flying across the room, hitting the wall very hard and knocking the picture of the whole gang off of the wall. Completely forgetting the girl who was looking extremely anxious, Dawn howled with laughter.
“ Why in the world did you do that? It was extremely funny by the way.” Connor stood up looking shocked.
“ What are you talking about, Dawn, you hit me!” Dawn rolled her eyes and huffed at him.
“ Dramatic much? You and I both know that I’m not strong enough to make your head turn let alone throw you up against a wall.” Connor scowled at her.
“ We’ll talk about that later, we need to find Cara a place to stay for the night. It’s a full moon and she’s going to turn no matter what we do.” Remembering the threat that was in front of her, Dawn turned her icy stare on her instead of Dawn.
“ If I remember correctly, you’re the one who invited her into our apartment, so as far as I’m concerned, that’s your problem and not mine. If you even try to say something witty, I’ll have a repeat of throwing you through the wall instead of just hitting it.” Cara cleared her throat so that the two would bring their attention back to her.
“ Look, I don’t want to come in between the two of you, Dawn. I have a boyfriend, so I’m not a threat to you. Connor here just said he could help me and that’s all I’m after.” Dawn folded her arms to look at her.
“ I don’t consider you a threat, actually. I just don’t take lightly the fact that I don’t know you, and you’re standing in my room. Not to mention the neanderthal here, just broke my door.” Cara nodded and began to back up towards the front area.
“ Well then, I apologize for that. I really don’t want you to throw me like you threw him, so I’m just gonna go.” Dawn shrugged and reached for the phone again, which Connor promptly took from her.
“ Why are you being so rude, Dawn? Do you really want a werewolf out loose to hurt people?” Cara flinched, but Connor was never one to have tact. Dawn sighed and grabbed her phone again.
“ Like I said before, you’re the one who said you could help her, so help her. I have to call Giles and tell him what the hell just happened.” Connor snickered.
“ I guarantee that it was just a fluke and couldn’t happen again.” Dawn glared at him.
“ Do you want to test that theory?” Connor sighed.
“ We’re just wasting time here, if you won’t help, then I will.” Dawn smirked silently to herself as he fled the room. Using the girl to change the subject was a nice touch for him. Instead of calling Giles right off, she called Buffy, who answered on the second ring.
“ Geeze Dawn, it’s only been like five minutes since we hung up.” Dawn grinned into the receiver.
“ I know, but something just happened that I need to talk to you and Giles about.” She heard her sister go quiet for a bit, and then she heard someone pick up the other line.
“ Er, What seems to be the problem, Dawn?” Dawn couldn’t hold back the smile as she heard Giles on the other end of the line. She’d grown really attached to old man. She took a deep breath and told them what happened between her and Connor, and she was only greeted with silence. Finally, she had to speak again.
“ Hello?” Finally, she heard Buffy cracking up on the line.
“ You mean you actually flung Connor to the wall with just a slap?” After she said she started laughing really hard and it sounded as if she dropped the phone. Dawn knew that it was funny, but she wanted to know what it meant.
“ Come on, Buffy! I’m dead serious here, and I want to know what’s going on.” After a minute, Giles was the one who spoke.
“ Dawn...what..er.. possessed you to slap Connor in the first place?” He was laughing too! Dawn huffed before answering. She should have known better then to tell her sister about this.
“ He broke my bedroom door and brought a strange girl with him.” This really got Buffy’s attention, and Dawn realized what she said sounded like.
“ Buffy, get your head out of the gutter! He’d been ignoring me to talk to this girl he’d never met. So, I got angry and locked my door to talk to you. After I hung up the phone, he yanked the door open and the girl was with him. He told me that she was a werewolf, and I made some comment about having to call you, and she had the nerve to talk to me. Connor made a rude comment, so I slapped him...and he went flying at the wall.” There was only silence for the longest time before Giles began to speak again.
“ Well, I will have to consult my books, and I’ll get back to you. I’m sorry I can’t give you an answer right now, Dawn, but I’ll find out what I can.” Dawn sighed and hung up the phone. So much for getting answers right then and there. She stood up, walked across the hall to Connor’s room, and went straight to the weights that he had so she could see if it really was a fluke.

Giles was sitting in the living room with Angel, the very pregnant Buffy, Talia, Xander, Wesley, Fred, Lorne, Willow, and Oz. They still couldn’t get over what Dawn had called and told them. Buffy had suggested that she was just becoming a slayer like her, but Giles dismissed it.
“ If she was to be a slayer, Buffy, the coven would have been able to sense her. Even if that hadn’t worked, Willow’s spell certainly would have. I’ll just drive the forty-five minutes it takes to get there, and I’ll run some tests. I’m sure Wesley will allow me to call him and run some things by him as well.” Wesley nodded his agreement, and Giles set off to pack and get ready to leave. Buffy was very pensive as she thought about what it could be. Willow went over to sit beside her and calm her down.
“ I’m sure she’s going to be fine, Buffy.” Buffy nodded and looked over at Angel.
“ I have no doubt that she’ll be fine, guys. It’s just that we never fully understood what the key was. Even if there’s no one to try and kill her, she’s still the key. We have no idea what she could be capable of.” Before anyone could say anything, Whistler popped up out of nowhere.
“ Listen guys, don’t worry your pretty little heads about Dawn or Connor. They’re both going to be just fine, don’t you fret. Let Giles go and run his little tests, okay? Him and Wesley will be able to find your information about what’s going on, but don’t worry. She’s just...finally on her path.” After saying this, he popped back out as he’d entered leaving everyone to ponder what he meant.
