`The light of day was cloaked in darkness, and all humanity cried in 
anguish. Draco the Destroyer had come, the power dancing in his eyes 
like a fierce storm, consuming everything that remained in his way.'

-The Book of Krai

Giles had long forgotten about the now cold cup of tea, he was 
completely engrossed in the ancient book he had stumbled across in 
while researching the information Buffy had given him. He had been 
almost ready to call it a night when he came across it and the title 
immediately jumped out at him, `Legend of the Destroyer, Prophecy of 
the Power&. scribed by Krai. With each paragraph he grew more 
concerned for Buffy and the others, if it really was Draco Syria that 
the Slayer had met in the other dimension then he needed to find out 
exactly what had happened there. The watcher's hands began to shake 
as he continued to read from the ancient book.

``The destroyer gathered forth all his power forming a key, and with 
it he unlocked the gateways. The dimensions began to collapse on top 
of one another, the fabric of reality began to tear, as creation 
itself began to reverse, only through the grace of the heavens was 
humanity spared and the destroyer sent away To all who read these 
word, I plead of you, pray in the name of the Powers that Be and the 
sacred sect of Talis that the destroyer is forever gone, that his key 
is lost to the ages of time, and that the power does not return.'

Giles face paled as he placed the book of Krai on the coffee table 
and took a sip of cold tea. He had already seen what had happened 
when Glory tried to use the key and it terrified him what would 
happen if Draco ever returned. He adjusted his glasses, sat his tea 
back on the Coffee table and once again picked up the book of Talis.  
Buffy had met Draco the Destroyer when she sacrificed herself to save 
the world and he needed to figure out what exactly that met for the 
Slayer.

Angel watched Cordelia drink the last of her coffee, "So are you 
going to tell me what you saw in the vision that's got you so shaken 
up?"

"There was this really like ancient village, which is bizarre because 
all my other visions have been about the future but one started out 
in the past, In the middle of the village there was this young man 
who looked like he had a lighting storm in his eyes."

Cordelia took a deep breath before continuing, "He was destroying the 
village with some kind of glowing orb, and all around him everyone 
was screaming that the destroyer had come, then&then I-I&"

"Cordelia, what is it? What did you see," Angel asked his voice 
filled with concern.

"There was a flash of light then I saw her."

"Saw who?!"

"B-Buffy.."


"Buffy," Angel solemnly asked.

"She was just standing there wearing weird looking robes and her eyes&
Angel they look just like the guy who was destroying the village. I 
tried to talk to her but she didn't say anything she just stood 
there."

Cordelia took a deep breath then continued, "She raised her hand and 
I could see small bolts of energy dancing across her finger tips.  
Then the Oracles appeared next to Buffy."

"The Oracles?!"

"Yeah, I know there suppose to be gone but they were there. One of 
them looked at me and said that the power had returned. The other 
one then looked at Buffy and said the balance is no more."

Angel got up from his chair and walked over to his desk, "Pack a bag, 
I'm calling Giles."

Buffy woke up at the crack of dawn, she raised her head up and smiled 
as she gazed at the sleeping redhead she was cuddled up against.  
Placed her head against Willows and thought how lucky she was, a few 
days ago she had faced Glory, and almost died. She had been torn 
from her world only to be returned to the love of her life and sister.

Willow opened her eyes and returned her lovers smile, "Morning."

Buffy leaned into Willow and tenderly kissed her lips, "Morning."

As soon as the two lovers lips touches lighting danced across the 
Slayers eyes, as waves of pleasure swept through her body.

Willow reluctantly pulled away from Buffy and went to roll out of bed 
and get ready for her first full day with Buffy since her soul mate 
had been returned to her. She however quickly rolled back into Buffy 
and clung to the blonde tightly.

"Sweetheart, is something wrong?!"

"Uh look down," Willow replied in near panic.

Buffy took her eyes off her lover and turned her head down towards 
the mattress. She quickly looked wide-eyed at Willow, a small 
lighting storm quickly fading from her eyes, "Oh my God, we're 
floating."

The two lovers then fell three feet back on to the mattress, both of 
them wondering what had just happened and knowing that they needed to 
talk to Giles as soon as possible.
