Chapter 1 (Meet the Characters)


The bell rang signaling lunch, and everyone

headed to the cafeteria. Buffy plopped her tray down on the

table where her best friends were sitting. They were

considered the “geeky freaks” of the school, mostly because

they were not geeky enough to be considered losers, and

everyone hated them because they had very strong opinions

about everything, and for that they were called freaks.


Buffy looked like your average California girl:

long blonde hair, green eyes, tanned and toned body. But

everyone knew that she was not. She was quick-witted, hot

tempered and not someone you would want to mess with.


Buffy looked at her friends and smiled. They

began to talk about the day, classes, and the night’s plans.


Willow Rosenberg is a very shy girl with

flame-red hair and a friendly expression. She was very

smart, and had been accepted at many top colleges. She

and Buffy formed the core of the group, for they were best

friends since they were in daycare.


Tara McClay had been the next addition to

the group. She is also very quiet and smart, with blue eyes

and light brown hair. She is currently dating one of her best

friends, Amy Madison, who is also a member of the group.


Amy joined the group when she began to

date Tara. Black hair and brown eyes, she likes to study the

occult and works part-time at a bookstore where the girls

hang out. She also has a weird obsession with cheese.


Fred Burkle joined the group on her first day

of school her sophomore year. She was a transfer from

some foreign country where she had been living with a

foster family. She is a very shy girl with brown hair and

glasses, who likes to spend most of her time reading.


And then there is Anya Jenkins. She joined

the group last year. She was a transfer from Los Angeles.

She doesn’t know her natural hair color due to the fact that

she changes it all the time. She is also very blunt.


The girls continued to eat their lunch, while a

few tables over Spike sat down with a loud thump.


------------------------------------------------------------------------


Spike sat down at the table with his friends. Spike was

known as the school bad boy: bleached hair, black clothes,

English accent, and a leather duster which he wore every

second of the day. He began school at Sunnydale a year

ago. Most students didn’t know anything about him except

rumors. He skipped most of his classes and was known to

pick a lot of fights. He is also a member of the band, Dingoes

Ate My Baby, in which he sings and sometimes plays guitar.


Spike greeted his friends, the only people

who had bothered to talk to him his first day of school, and

also members of the Dingoes. He noticed the boy from Ms.

Addams’ office. He introduced himself and everyone began

to talk about their upcoming gig at the Bronze.


Xander Harris is the quirkiest of the group.

He often makes jokes that only he and Jesse laugh at. He

plays guitar for the Dingoes. Daniel Osbourne, known as Oz,

also plays guitar for the Dingoes. He is very stoic, and his

hair has been every color of the rainbow at least once.


The guys looked up as they heard a loud

crash.


------------------------------------------------------------------------


The freshman fell to the ground as he was tripped. He heard

laughing as he looked up at Angel and his friends. He quickly

gathered his things and ran, already embarrassed and not

looking forward to a beating.


Angel O’Connor is the most popular guy in

school. The guys want to be as popular as he is and the

girls wish they could get with him. He spends most of his

time tormenting the less fortunate. Laughing, he turned to go

to his table and sat down.

Riley Finn, a farm boy from Iowa, is only

popular because he happens to be on the football team with

Angel. His father is in the military, so he often talks in military

code. Parker Abrams is also on the football team. His hobby

is getting girls to sleep with him and then leaving them the

next morning, never speaking to them again. And then there

is Charles Gunn, known as Gunn. Also on the football team,

he enjoys taking the geeks to the bathroom and beating them

senseless.


Angel sat down at the “popular” table just as

three girls entered the room.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------


Dawn, Harmony, and Cordelia walked into the room. They

spotted Angel at the popular table and went to sit down at

the table next to it. All sophomores, the girls were among the

most popular girls in school.


Dawn is Buffy’s sister, although neither one

admits it. She’s had her eye on Angel since she saw him her

freshman year. Cordelia, a very tactless girl with jet black

hair, is a walking fashion magazine. She only wears the best

names in fashion and dates the most popular guys. She and

Dawn have been best friends since they were little.

Harmony is the epitome of a valley girl. Blonde hair and

tanned body, she lacks common sense and has the lowest

gpa in the sophomore class.


Lunch continued on, with everyone

chatting. The bell rang signaling the end of lunch, and the

students reluctantly get up, and head for their next class.
