Summary: Buffy finds herself at the mercy of the White Council.
The Dye Job
“Again I apologize for the inconvenience, Miss Summers,” the elderly man - no, not man, wizard - said as the others began to leave the dismal looking warehouse.
“Inconvenience?” Buffy nearly shrieked. “You had me bound, gagged, put a freakin’ hood over my head, and nearly put me to death! You call that an inconvenience?”
“I’m afraid it was your hair color and blatant mentions of Sunnydale that first alerted your presence to the local Warden, he is young and prone to mistakes. Then there is the faint magical signature you give off,” he said, voice tired but sincere.
Buffy rolled her eyes. “I’m the slayer, duh. Of course there’s gonna be a magical signature.”
“We realize that now and I assure you this will not happen again,” he reiterated one more time before turning away and following his fellow wizards out.
She forced herself to remain calm and not threaten the man who was apparently the head of some wizard’s council. His underlings were wicked powerful with their spells and she didn’t want to chance it with the top dog. Buffy only hoped the dye job Dawn gave her was enough to keep these guys off of Willow’s back.

Summary: Ash finds a stranger at the Roadhouse.
Awesome Day
Ash only took note of the car in the parking lot because it was the only one he didn’t recognize. He barely paused in memorizing the Ohio plates in case he needed to remember it for later as he made his way into the Roadhouse. As his eyes adjusted to the sudden change of light, he swaggered over to the bar.
Ellen wordlessly set a beer in front of him before moving on to another customer. His eyes scanned the dimly lit room and fell on the one person he didn’t know. She was cute, young, and with long brown hair.
He took a long draft of his beer before walking over to the table of hunters she was sitting with. He liked meeting all of the visitors, you never knew when that information might come in handy.
“- shame you’re heading back to Cleveland,” said one of the hunters.
“It’s the Summer curse to be in the hotspots,” she said with a sigh.
Ash stopped in his tracks. Ohio plates. Cleveland. Summers. Holy crap, she was the Slayer. He felt a nervous glee build inside his belly. He was going to meet the true Slayer. What an awesome day.
