Xena pulled out her cellular phone and she started dialing the 
number for the guardian estate.Michelle said your going to call them 
right now.Xena said yes i am and hopefully Giles and Joyce will be 
more understanding if i tell them about the meeting now rather than 
later when they are expecting Buffy and the others to already be on 
their way back to California.

Joyce answered the phone and Xena said Joyce this is Xena can you 
call Giles to the phone because i need to speeak to both of 
you.Joyce said sure and after setting the phone down she walked into 
the living room where Giles,and the others were resting.Joyce said 
Xena is on the phone Giles and she wants to speak to both of 
us.Giles got up and he said I'll go get on the phone in the kitchen 
and he headed for the kitchen.When Giles and Joyce got on the phone 
Giles said go ahead Xena were both here.Xena said Giles Joyce i am 
afraid that Angel and the others up here have been invited to a 
meeting by the elders.Giles said they are to meet the elders and 
Xena said yes they are.Giles said why werent we told this before we 
came back to California.Xena said you left before we could tell you 
and if you guys hadnt left the invitation would have been to all of 
you.Joyce said exactly who are these elders your talking about Xena 
and why do they want to meet with Buffy and the others.Xena said 
they are the top leaders of the nightwalkers and they make up a 
council which has existed for over four milienia.Giles said it is a 
high honor for anyone to be invited to a meeting that the elders are 
going to attend.Xena said yes it is but the meeting is going to be 
in a couple days from now so Buffy and the others cant head right to 
California as you had wanted them to.Giles said i understand and it 
is ok if they stay until the meeting but once its over they are to 
board the first flight back to Los Angeles.Xena said i will have 
them flown back aboard the lear jet that flew us all up here.Joyce 
said tell them they have my love and to be carefull up there.Xena 
said she would and then she hung up the phone,

Xena looked at Buffy and the others and she said you have their 
permission to stay until the meeting but afterwards you are to fly 
back to Sunnydale via me and Gabrielle's lear jet.Michelle said hey 
we had better load up if we are going to get back to Toronto before 
nine o'clock.Xena said yes we had better and they all split up and 
headed to get their suitcases and other stuff.

As Buffy and Willow were getting their suitcases and stuff Buffy 
noticed that Willow was carrying a metal attache case which she 
recognized.Buffy said Willow i thought you sent that back to 
California with the other weapons.Willow said i was going to but on 
our way back from the bunker i thought i just might be able to help 
Faith get some revenge on Quentin Travers so i kept it.Buffy said 
which one is in there and Willow said the tranq rifle of course and 
since we are going to stay a couple days there is no reason why we 
cant help Faith carry out her plan.Buffy said Willow you know this 
is going to get you on the watchers list of most dangerous threats 
if they find out you had a hand in what Faith is going to do with 
Quentin.Willow said i can live with that and Buffy said well i would 
like to be a bit lower on the list as well.

When Buffy and Willow were walking to the van carrying their 
suitcases Angel and Cordelia walked up to them.Angel said Hey it 
looks like we are going to be riding with you two.Buffy said thats 
fine Angel there is plenty of room for all of us in the van although 
the two of you will be in the back.Cordelia said thats fine with me 
i can slide the seat back and take a nap this has been one hell of a 
busy day.Angel noticed the slight bulges in Buffy and Willow's 
jackets and he said hey you two still have your pistols.Willow said 
yes we do Toronto is a big city thats still full of danger for us so 
we kept them.Cordelia said i also kept my pistols they are in my 
purse there was no reason to send them back with the others just yet 
since we have permits to be armed up here.Buffy looked at Angel and 
said you didnt keep yours did you Angel and Angel said no i didnt 
but now that i think about it i wish i had.Willow said well i can go 
get you a couple pistols if you like and Angel said no i am fine 
without them for now but if something comes up i will take you up on 
your offer.

Buffy and the others put their suitcases in the back of the van 
they would be riding in and then Angel and Cordelia climbed in the 
back as well.Vachon rode up beside the van right as Willow was about 
to climb into the passenger side of the van.Vachon said Willow 
thanks for the motorcycle and Willow said your welcome and take good 
care of it Vachon said oh i will and i am going to open this baby up 
and see how fast it can go.Buffy said Vachon if i were you i would 
let Natalie and the others in the cars and humvee go first because 
there is no telling how Tracy and her friends are going to react 
behind the wheels of their new vechicles.Willow said yeah and dont 
forget about Michelle she will most likely be leading the group in 
her Masariti.Vachon looked at Willow and he said you gave Michelle 
the Masariti and Willow said yes i did.Vachon said i had better have 
Nick talk to her about the posted speed limits and what the police 
do to catch speeders.

Almost two hours later they reached the outskirts of Toronto.Buffy 
followed Michelle and most of the others to the Raven because she 
didnt know how to get to the hotel they were going to stay at.Buffy 
and the others climbed out of the van and Michelle,Xena,and 
Gabrielle walked up to them.Michelle said hey why did you guys 
follow us here.Buffy said because we dont know where the hotel we 
are going to stay at for the next couple days is.Xena said we are 
going to stay at the Cunningham Sheraton just like we did 
before.Michelle said i will have one of my people lead you over to 
it.Willow said Michelle before we go there is the matter of the 
rings of Amarra.Michelle said damn i almost forgot about that and 
then she said Gabrielle go inside and tell the enforcers who went on 
the hunt to come back out here.Gabrielle headed for the entrance and 
Xena said what is this matter of the rings of Amara.Michelle said we 
are going to collect all the rings of Amara that were handed out so 
they can be put back in the container.Willow said i am going to hold 
onto the container until representatives from the kindred and 
nightwalkers are chosen to make a decision on what should be done 
with them.Michelle said Willow is also going to cast a spell to make 
sure that no one who would misuse the rings of Amara can open the 
container to get ot the rings.Xena said that is a very good 
precuational method and the representatives should have to be able 
to open the container before the decision is made.

The enforcers,Nick,Gabrielle,and Vachon walked out of the Raven and 
over to where Michelle,Buffy,Willow,Cordelia,Angel,and Xena 
were.Marcus said why did you call us all out here.Michelle said i 
need for each of you to hand over the rings of Amarra that were 
passed out.The leader said why do we have to give them up and Xena 
said because they are far too dangerous to be in any one person's 
possesion and representatives from the nightwalkers and kindred will 
be chosen to decide what should be done with the rings of 
Amarra.Marcus said these rings are too much of a temptation for 
anyone to have especially us so lets hand them over.The enforcers 
and others took off their rings and started dropping them into the 
container that Michelle was holding open.When Nick dropped the ring 
he had had into the container Michelle said is that all of 
them.Angel said no i still have mine and he took it off and dropped 
it into the container.Nick said hey Aristotle still has one and 
Marcus said i will go get it from him and bring it to you.Michelle 
said no i will get it from him and bring it to you Willow tommorrow 
night.One enforcer said why are you giving the container to her she 
cant be trusted.Xena said she can be trusted more than any of us 
because the rings do nothing for her but do do something for 
vampires.Willow said i will cast the restricted access spell on the 
container and then hand it over to someone who i think can be 
trusted to protect it.Angel said are you sure of this Willow and 
Willow said yes i am and i am quite positive that no one in their 
right mind would even try taking the container away from who i am 
going to entrust it to.Willow said as a matter a fact i will do the 
spell now and when Michelle gives me the ring Aristotle has i will 
add it to those already inside.

Willow closed the container and she said move back everyone and 
everyone moved away from her.Willow lowered the shields to several 
of her levels of power and she started performing a spell.Willow 
actually performed four spells placing each of them on the 
container.When she was finished their were runes around the 
containers opening and Willow said I'm done.Michelle said who are 
you going to entrust the container to.Xena said yes we need to be 
sure that the person you have in mind can be trusted.Willow said 
follow me inside and if you dont think the person i have chosen is 
good enough after i have handed the container to the person you can 
tell me to choose someone else.Gabrielle said ok and then everyone 
headed for the entrance to the raven.

Once inside Willow looked around the club trying to find the person 
she had chosen to let hold the container.A minute later Jeannette 
walked up and she said Michelle me and Lacroix were just told by 
some of your fellow enforcers that the demon vamps and demon wolves 
are history.Michelle said yes they are and we blew up the bunker so 
that Wolfram and Hart couldnt use the labs in it to create anymore 
demon wolves.Willow said Jeannette i have a favor to ask of 
you.Jeannette looked at Willow and said why would you ask a favor of 
me and why do you think i would even consider fullfilling the favor 
you ask.Willow said the favor i ask is that you hold this container 
until the representatives from the nightwalkers and Kindred are 
selected to decide what shall be done with its contents.Jeannette 
said huh.Michelle said Jeannette the container contains a large 
number of rings of Amarra which allow vampires to walk around in 
sunlight.Jeannette said where did you get these things Willow.Xena 
said the rings of Amarra we believe were to be given to the demon 
vamps by a demon working for Wolfram and Hart.Willow said Jeannette 
will you take possession of the container and keep it safe until a 
decision is made of what to do with it.Jeannette said i do not know 
if it will be safe in my possession.Willow said the container has 
several spells on it designed to keep anyone who would misuse the 
rings from being able to open the container.Michelle said Jeannette 
i doubt that there is any vampire who would be willing to not only 
risk your wrath but the wrath of Lacroix and us enforcers if he or 
they invaded your home in an effort to take the container from 
you.Lacroix said Michelle is right Jeannette no one would dare such 
an act.Jeanette said ok i will take possession of the container but 
while i am its guardian i request permission from you Lacroix to 
move back into my old residence here at the Raven.Lacroix said you 
have my permission and i swear to this Michelle no one will take the 
container from Jeannette without going through me first.Willow 
handed the container over to Jeannette and then she said Michelle i 
believe by you and Xena's help in persuading Jeannette to be the 
holder of the container that you agree that she is trustworthy.Xena 
said yes Jeannette is trustworthy and Michelle said i accept your 
choice Willow on behalf of the enforcers.Lacroix said what are you 
three talking about.Michelle said we didnt know who Willow was going 
to give the container to and she gave us the right to have her 
select another choice if we didnt think her first choice could be 
trusted.Lacroix said logical and you chose well young lady after 
turning to look at Willow.Willow said well i knew that Jeannette was 
quite powerfull being over a millenia old and with you as her sire 
no one would dare try anything against her without bringing down 
your wrath upon him or her.Lacroix said you think well of me and 
Willow said well i dont know almost anything about you but Xena and 
Gabrielle warned me and Buffy to be wary of you so thats good enough 
for me.Lacroix looked at Xena and Gabrielle with a questioning look 
and Xena said we told them about the time you tried to bring over a 
woman who was already Immortal.Lacroix said ah that was back in my 
youth but i understand your point of view.
