After Kendall had told them about the ammo and the guns they were 
getting Willow asked if she could try out one of the sniping rifles 
he had selected for her.Kendall was about to say yes when Giles said 
Willow you will have to wait til later to try out your guns we need 
to get back to Sunnydale.They quickly loaded up the cases of guns and 
ammo boxes into Oz's van and then they started to say goodbye to 
Kendall.Kendall accepted their goodbyes and he said before you go i 
need to give you this and he held out a large manilla envelope.Joyce 
said whats in it and Kendall said ownership papers for the guns and 
special permits which will allow you to carry them around almost 
anywhere.Giles took the manilla envelope and thanked him before he 
and the others 
left. 

Earlier that morning in San Francisco 
Derek,Nick,Kat,Rachel,Alex,Peter,Wesley,and Faith were just returning 
from St.Louis when Charles the Butler met them at the door.Charles 
said sir was the trip a successfull one and Alex said yes it was 
Charles and i for one am glad to be back home.Kat said you arent the 
only one Alex and Rachel said i second that motion.Nick said actually 
Rachel you third it because your mom seconded it.Rachel looked at 
Nick and she stuck her tongue out at him.Derek said Charles were 
there any messages for us while we were gone.Charles said you had a 
couple messages and they are awaiting you on your desk but everyone 
else with the exception of Wesley did not recieve any messages.Derek 
headed up to his office and most of the others headed up to their 
bedrooms but Wesley walked up to Charles.Wesley asked Charles who his 
message was from and when it had arrived.Charles said i dont know who 
its from but it was delivered here earlier this morning by a young 
man named Gunn who has called here several times in the last few days 
trying to reach you.Wesley said where is it and Charles said its 
right over there and he pointed at an envelope on top of a small 
cabinet that was in the 
foyer. 

Wesley walked over to the cabinet and he picked up the envelope and 
turned it over to open it up but suddenly stopped.Wesley couldnt 
believe his eyes when he saw the seal of the watcher's council on the 
back of the envelope sealing the very center of it shut.Wesley 
started to wonder how Gunn had got ahold of a letter from the 
watcher's council which was for him but then he noticed the letters 
in the very bottom right corner of the seal and saw the letters R.G. 
which he knew were the initals of the watcher who had sent the letter 
to him.Wesley immedietly ripped open the envelope knowing that Giles 
would never have used the seal of the watcher's council to seal the 
envelope unless it contained something important and he had wanted 
him to know when he got it.Wesley took a folded piece of paper out of 
the envelope and unfolded it.After unfolding it Wesley knew that 
whatever message Giles had sent him was even more important than he 
had previously thought because Giles had used an ancient code that 
the Watcher's council had stopped using centuries ago but both of 
them knew it.Wesley walked over to a desk and got out a pen and a 
notepad out of the drawer.For the next ten minutes Wesley decoded the 
message and wrote down the message on the notepad.Once finished he 
read the whole message through and he understood most of it but he 
didnt understand why Giles wanted to send some books and items to the 
Legacy especially ones he had never heard of.Wesley decided to check 
the Legacy mainframes and see if there was anything the computer 
could find in the Legacy databank archives.Wesley went to the 
computer room and he typed in his access code which gave him 
authorization to access certain files but not others because he was 
so new to the group.Wesley had the computer go into search mode and 
then he typed in red book of Quadrins.Five seconds later an automatic 
alarm went off because of what Wesley had asked about and everybody 
in the building started running toward the computer room.Alex was the 
first one to reach the computer room and when she saw Wesley sitting 
in front of the computer she ran to him and yelled a demand to know 
what he had done.Wesley said i was just trying to get the computer to 
search through the Legacy databank archives for something that a 
friend of mine wants to send to the legacy.Alex tried to shut off the 
alarm but the computer refused to take her command because her 
security level wasnt high enough which surprised her.A few seconds 
later Derek ran into the computer room and Alex said Derek please 
shut off the alarm i tried to do it but the computer wont let me 
because my security level isnt high enough.Derek walked over to the 
computer and typed in his access code and then had the computer turn 
off the alarm which it did.Derek looked at Alex and said what set 
this alarm off its only goes off if someone tries to find out about 
something thats classified under triple zeroes.Alex looked at Wesley 
and she said Wesley was trying to get the computer to check the 
legacy databank archives about some item a friend of his wants to 
send us.Derek looked at Wesley and he said who exactly is this friend 
of yours,how does he know about us,and what does he want to send 
us.Wesley said his name is Rupert Giles and like me he is an ex 
watcher and also like me he has a slayer still with him.Alex said 
well that answers two of the questions right off but what exactly 
does he want to send us and why.Wesley said i dont know exactly why 
he wants to send us some stuff but i do have a sort of list of it and 
he held up the notepad.Derek took the notepad and he read the first 
item on the list which was the old red book of Quadrins.Derek looked 
at it and tried to think of why that sounded so familiar but he 
couldnt remeber so he said Wesley let me sit at the computer.Wesley 
got up and Derek sat down in the chair.Derek typed in his access code 
which gave him access to the highest levels of classified materials 
because he was the prefect of the Luna house of the Legacy.Derek 
typed in the old red book of Quadrins and a second later three words 
appeared on the screen and Derek was shocked to his very core by them 
and he literally jumped out of the chair.Derek rubbed his eyes and 
then looked back at the computer screen and sure enough were the 
words Quadrin's red grimoire on the screen.Derek said Wesley contact 
your friend immedietly and set up a meeting where we can pick up that 
book we need to get it locked up in one of the vaults as soon as 
possible.Wesley said ok but what about the rest of the items on the 
list do you want them as well or not i will need to tell him.Kat said 
Derek i think we should take them all because if any of them are like 
the first one on the list its our duty to the legacy to do it.Nick 
who now had a hold of the notepad said i dont think the rest of this 
stuff is dangerous and then he said hey guys listen to this.Nick said 
the eight item listed is a titan's stone of time and then he started 
laughing.Derek grabbed the notepad from Nick and he went down the 
list to number five and read it for himself.Derek looked at Nick and 
he said Nick these arent the names of the items they are just 
descriptions of the items and for your information number five if i 
am correct is a Chronos stone which can be used to travel through 
time.Alex said that sounds bad and Derek said oh it can be in the 
wrong hands and thats why we must get ahold of it 
quickly. 

A few minutes later Wesley walked back into the computer room and 
over to Derek who was sitting once again at the computer using it to 
search through the legacy databank archives to find out what the 
items were most likely to be.Wesley said Derek i just called where my 
friend lives and i was told that he wasnt at home presently but that 
he would be home later this afternoon.Derek said do you know who you 
were talking to and Wesley said no i didnt but i did contact Gunn who 
brought the letter here and he said it was most likely a woman named 
Cassandra who my friend and others helped and it was she who 
identified the items as what they are and told them.Derek said i know 
of someone named Cassandra and if it is the same woman she can be 
trusted even though she isnt a member of legacy.Derek said call back 
in a few hours and see if your friend is back and if he is set up a 
meeting where we can collect the items.Wesley said ok but he wont 
come alone he will most likely bring his slayer and the rest of the 
group that helps her.Derek said he would be a fool not to because he 
might need all of them to keep the items safe until they are in our 
hands and i wont feel safe until they are locked up in a vault.Nick 
said Derek if these things are so dangerous i think we should call in 
for some backup because we might need it as well.Derek looked at Nick 
and said your right of course and i will contact the London house and 
ask for a squad of britons to be sent over and i am sure they will 
agree once they find out about what we are going to 
get. 


Somewhere many thousands of miles away from San Francisco Joe 
Dawson was sitting behind his desk in the watcher's new secret 
headquarters when there was a loud rushed knock on his door.Joe 
pressed a button which unlocked the door and he said come in and a 
second later a middle aged woman walked in carrying a file in both 
her hands.Joe recognized the woman who was an archivist and he said 
Lorraine what can i do for you.Lorraine said you can hear me out sir 
and then she walked over to his desk.Lorraine said sir two days ago a 
stack of twelve pictures were placed on my desk and most of them were 
of the Immortal named Cassandra.Joe said go ahead i am familiar with 
Cassandra's file.Lorraine said well sir there were about four 
pictures that werent of Cassandra but of two young women who were 
with her.Joe said whats so special about these pictures of the two 
young women who were with Cassandra.Lorraine said sir one of the 
young women in two of the pictures looked familiar to me so i did 
some checking up on her and i accidentally got into the other 
watchers council's files and she was in it.Joe sat up straight and he 
said how did it happen and she said i dont know sir it just must have 
been a fluke of some kind.Joe said dont tell me that one of the girls 
in the pictures is a vampire.Lorraine shook her head and she said no 
she is human and Joe let out a sigh of relief.Lorraine said sir i 
wouldnt relax so fast sir because the situation is worse than what 
you believed.Joe looked at Lorraine and he said spill it Lorraine I'm 
not in the mood for being run in circles.Lorraine said sir according 
to the other watchers council files the girl's name is Buffy Summers 
and she is a slayer.Lorraine opened the file and she took out a 
picture of Buffy and laid it down on the desk in front of him.Joe 
stood up and then looked down at the picture of Buffy and he started 
yelling out cuss words.Lorraine dropped the file on his desk and then 
ran out of his office and pulled the door shut behind 
her. 

A few minutes later Joe sat back down in his chair and he 
immedietly flipped through his roladex until he came upon the one 
that had Cassandra's phone number and address listed on it.Joe picked 
up the phone and he dialed the number.Two minutes later Cassandra 
picked up and she said hello Cassandra speaking.Joe said hello 
Cassandra and Cassandra said hello Joe its nice to hear from you 
again so soon.Joe said i suggest you wait to decide whether its good 
to hear from me so soon or not because i have some questions i want 
answered and i might not like the answers.Cassandra said Joe if you 
think you know the answers to the questions you are going to ask me 
than why ask me.Joe said i have a couple pictures of you and two 
young women who were with you last thursday night on my desk right in 
front of me and what i want to know is do you know that one of them 
is a slayer.Cassandra grinned and she said of course i knew Joe.Joe 
said Cassandra you should damn well know better than to hang around 
with slayers they mustnt ever find out about immortals again or it 
could spell disaster for all of you.Cassandra said its too late for 
that Joe and Joe said what do you mean.Cassandra said i told her 
about immortals last thursday night.Joe yelled are you crazy 
Cassandra and then went back to cussing.Cassandra waited for Joe to 
stop cussing and then she said Joe i had a very good reason for 
telling her and if you will let me explain you will understand.Joe 
said ok go ahead and explain.Cassandra said Joe do you remeber that 
when i called you last thursday night i mentioned that i had two 
young women who were both immortals and needed training.Joe said of 
course i do but then he stopped talking when he thought of 
something.Joe said Cassandra dont you dare tell me that the two girls 
in the pictures are the female immortals you were talking 
about.Cassandra said I'm sorry Joe but i cant lie to you and to tell 
you otherwise would be lying.Joe said a slayer became immortal and 
Cassandra said yes she has and the young woman in the other picture 
is a wiccan and then she started laughing.Joe slammed the phone down 
and he just cussed up a storm before opening up a drawer of his file 
cabinet and pulling out a bottle of whiskey and a large shot glass.
