BUFFY: HOMECOMING @ SUNNYDALE '98-PART 6

by Keith

The fourth annual nude jewelry auction and catwalk show at the outlet
mall had been the most memorable in recent history, if only for the
trouble that had managed to find its way there, but the reception
following harbored no such further incidence. It would be the night in
which Scott Hennessey, the 9th grade Social Studies teacher in Buffy's
school would come to see things everyone else's way, even when he
defended the state senator's daughter along with his  childhood friend
and lover, Brad Rogers.

However, that would be another story for today and maybe even into
tomorrow would be the days following the reception as Buffy and Faith
were on their way down to the
Galleria @ Fox Hills Valley. On board Faith's trusty motorcycle, Buffy
rode in back of her with her arms wrapped around Faith's abdomen as best
she could as she held on for dear life as the older sophomore girl knew
how to commandeer the oversized vehicle she had managed to receive for
her birthday last year once she had talked her father into buying it for
her. The day was clear, but cooler than expected as the wind that was
kicked up by the speed of the motorbike managed to also keep her long
blonde hair flowing in back of her head like the course of the wind that
sailed down against them. Both were quiet, but jubilant as they had
survived the jewelry auction and reception without much further incident
as the motorcycle they rode upon sped its joyfully jolly little way down
the lone highway, passing a car or two as they made their way towards
their destination.

"Say Buff!"

"Yeah, Faith?"

"I was thinkin' of stoppin' by Parkfield City High..."

"Why the hell for? We're supposed to be playing them next Friday
afternoon at the HC game during the carnival!"

"I know, I know, but today's the beginning of their homecoming and
they're having their own little nude carwash fundraiser right now, so it
wouldn't hurt too bad if we stopped by and say hello to the competition
to see how they're fairing, right?"

Buffy thought for a moment amidst the static and din of the roaring motor
and the blowing wind that made it hard for any of them to exchange words
with each other, until she came up with her own response.

"If you say so, Faith, then let's make a stop, but I promised my mother
we'd take Dawn to the club later this evening so we gotta hurry....."

Not another word was exchanged between them as they sped off down the
road towards their destination......

Parkfield City High had roughly the same student body size of 200 plus
like Sunnydale had when Buffy and Faith pulled up towards the front
parking lot of the campus where eleven students were busily washing cars
in the buff! No pun intended!

There were five girls and five boys equally watched over by a certain
Mrs. Oatmoore and a senior girl named Erique Allynne Bradshaw who came to
help supervise the proceedings. The kids were nude, but they were being a
lot more innocent about it: they had splashed water all over each other
playfully, but they stuck to their duties washing any car that was
willing to donate to the school. Unlike the carwash at Sunnydale, there
would be no sexual shenanigans because like Ms. Fujikawa had said to her
Buffy's mother Joyce, each school in the NIS-Program abided by its own
rules each had set up and aside and at this campus, there was plenty of
nudity to spar, but that would be all!

Seeing the strangers approach the front parking lot of their campus,
Erique Allynne Bradshaw, who was naked like the younger charges skipped
and jostled herself to them with a smile in her face in a gesture of
friendship and cordial welcome.

"Hi, you ladies must be new on campus. From whereabouts do you hail?"

"Sunnydale. We're on our way to the Galleria in Fox Hills Valley, but my
girlfriend and I decided to stop by here first to see what the
competition was up to, and besides that, you have the most amazing
breasts, such cute melons for our viewing pleasure", said Buffy to the
tall blonde and shag cut senior girl with the sizeable breasts and
shapely waist that complimented her naked form to a tee!

"Why thank you very, very much for the compliment, Miss...."

"Buffy Summers and this is my girlfriend Faith Mondriani. How much do you
want in donations?"

"A fair amount if you can afford it."

"Great..." said Faith in return as they commandeered the motorcycle they
rode upon down the front driveway so that it could be special attention
to by the Parkfield Students.

Buffy and Faith seemed to also notice that there were some kids who were
a year older, like Faith's age, so Buffy inquired briefly about it and
was given this response.

"All freshmen and sophomores are required to participate in the program
here in Parkfield City High. The tour of academic duty lasts for two
years of their schooling here, but it's also here that they can never be
allowed to have sex of any kind."

"Not even oral sex?"

"No sexual activity period!"

"But where we come from, there is such a thing as the reasonable request
and relief clause which does allow masturbation on campus by our fellow
classmates at Sunnydale, Miss...."

"You can call me Erique, but still, Principal Sneddon will not allow sex
of any kind here on campus at anytime whatsoever. That's our rule,
period. I'm sorry that sounds harsh, but it's for the best and the good
of everyone here. Any further questions before I must return to my
underclass charges?"

"You've ever been to the Galleria? What's it like?"

"It's wonderful! It's a huge complex with 3 floors of shops and boutiques
and four main department stores at all ends pointing north, south, east,
and west, but you should check out the jeans store inside the mall
towards the west end of the place."

"What's so special about it?"

"Well....the staff and sales clerks are required by store policy to go
topless so as to sell the jeans and nothing else...."

"You're shittin' me, right?!"

"I kid you not, Miss Summers. The girls who work there at the jeans
boutique have some of the most beautiful breasts this side of Parkfield
City, in fact, I try to pop in there everynow and then just to take a
gander at their....assets...."

"Doesn't that get you into trouble with the managers?"

"No, but only as long as they don't go outside the store when they're on
their breaks or make their runs to the food courts, in which, they must
put their shirts on to do that."

"Interesting", both Buffy and Faith concurred with each other as they
allowed Erique to return to their charges to finish up washing their bike
so they could be on their merry way to the Fox Hills Valley.

Once their bike had been cleaned and dried off, they were both off as the
Parkfield students waved their farewells to them as they sped off down
the road towards their ultimate destination.

Meanwhile, Willow and Tara were busily involved with their own matters
for it was at Tara's Aunts' boutique that the sophomore girl reintroduced
the redhead freshman to her elders once more.

It was inside their little shop of exotic goods, potions, medicines, and
candles that the Halliwells were witches, bonafide witches in the flesh,
but no one else knew that they were witches except for Tara....and Willow
in which case she was about to find out....

"So you mean to tell me you ladies are real witches?", Willow asked one
of the Halliwell sisters, still amazed to learn of such things in the
latter half of this century.

"You are correct in your assumptions, Miss Rosenberg, is it?", Prudence,
the eldest of the Halliwells asked of Willow as the freshman looked in
awe upon the spellbindingly haunting brunette mane of hair that framed
her heart shaped face with her pale blue eyes that gave off an
otherworldly appearance to her.

"My last name is Rosenberg, but my friends call me Willow as do my
folks."

"Won't your parents have a problem with you associating yourself with the
likes of us?", asked Piper, the first middle Halliwell sibling who was a
little apprehensive about what their niece had brought into their shop
this morning still.

"I must confess something to you: I am Jewish by faith and heritage,but
my parents have barely been practicing it since I was born for you see my
father's a college professor and my mom's a psychiatrist. The perceived
problems they'll eventually have with this is that they don't believe in
magic. They're rational progressive people, but I happen to be shy when
it comes to people,but they want me to expand my horizons to see what the
real world is like, and to tell them that I've just met witches for
friends will probably make them think I was out of my mind....or
worse......I promise to keep your secrets if you let me learn your ways
and allow me to instruct your niece in the basic tenets of my faith as
well..."

It was barely a moment until.....

"Would you please excuse the two of us?", asked Piper to Tara and her
friend as she and Prudence talked amongst themselves privately while
Phoebe and Paige gave them a little tour of their boutique.

"We have an assortment of ingredients and paraphernalia pertaining to the
Craft. We've got potions. Ingredients for potions like royal jelly, frogs
legs, pigs' blood...."

"Pigs' blood?", asked Willow all nervously to Paige in which Phoebe came
to the redhead and provided her own little explanation to her.

"You must've seen the movie Carrie, didn't you?", asked Phoebe to Willow.

"I've heard....."

"Well, there is nothing to dread here, the pigs' blood like all other
ingredients here in our shop is safe and legal, and we also have an array
of candles and cauldrons for any late night conjurations you may be
thinking of embarking upon, but still, better to be safe than sorry."

"Please remind me just in case I still don't know", requested Willow to
one of the two younger aunts as they were showing her the collection of
cauldrons that were placed in a neat little row of about four: two on top
with two on the bottom.

"Magic is a serious business and you should always know what you are
doing all the time. It's not to be taken lightly like my aunts keep
telling me every time we work the Craft together. If you're not careful,
it can be a very dangerous if it's fallen into the wrong hands for the
price for meddling with unseen and hidden powers is very high."

"How high, Tara?"

"Very, very high indeed...."

"So 'tis best to be extremely careful with what you are doing when you do
decide to study the Craft full time."

"So in other words, a great deal of respect for the unseen powers you are
toying with is demanded at all times and at all costs, regardless",
finished Paige succinctly to Willow just in time for the elder aunts
returned to them with a verdict of their own for the redhead girl to
hear.

"Willow Rosenberg. My sister Piper and I have talked it over with each
other for a few minutes regarding you being our niece's friend and would
be apprentice, and let me impart to you this word of wisdom....."

Willow was already nervous enough as it is when Pru and Piper Halliwell
conversed privately amongst themselves leaving the younger siblings in
charge of the children.

"We'll let you be our niece's friend and be her apprentice in the Craft,
but you must promise us never to ever tell anyone of our existence and to
also impart your knowledge of the faith you were born into to Tara. We
mean it, Willow Rosenberg. You can study our Craft with our niece, but
it's only fair that you instruct her in your culture as well while
keeping our existence a secret for our own safety and protection,"
implored Piper to Willow who was puzzled as to why any of Tara's aunts
would still be mindful and afraid of being proud of who they were as
Wiccans.

"It's the late 20th Century, and you should never have to hide in the
proverbial custodial supply closet in this day and age."

"Please, Willow, you must try to understand. There are still people who
are afraid of us and will do anything in their power to see to it that we
are destroyed, wiped off the face of the Earth because they fear
something that they just cannot understand, and besides, isn't in your
Bible that "thou must never suffer a witch to live?"

"Wait, it's been misinterpreted quite a few times. What's meant by that
phrase-ology is that a poisoner must never be suffered to live. I've read
in a website concerning the so-called Christian Right. That's where I
found that little passage."

"But still Miss Rosenberg, you must heed our request for anonymity and
secrecy for not only our own sakes, but for your own sakes as well. Do
you promise to keep us a secret, Willow, yes or no?"

Willow was silent when she was asked that for she knew that they were
serious and meant every word of it. She looked to Tara as she thought
long and hard, agonizing a little before coming to her final decision in
which turn she faced the Halliwells to give them her reply.

"Alright, Madame Halliwell. I promise to keep your existence a secret and
to also honor your requests for anonymity."

And with that promised made, Willow held out her hands to the older women
and Tara as they took each other's hands into their own and clasped them
down tightly and waved them up and down three times, saying the phrase...

"So blessed and mote it be!"

The Fox Hills Valley Galleria was situated deep in a valley surrounded by
gold-colored hills dotted with live oaks. In fact,like the namesake
itself, the entire city was situated deeply and snuggly into a valley so
vast and wide that it would take a day or so just to get from one place
to another. The October sun shined down warmly and brightly upon the
off-whitish three-story spacious complex that ran more than 50-100 miles
in any and all directions as a multitude of cars of every shape and color
was parked all around it. It was barely high noon when Buffy and Faith
reached it and heading over to the motorcycle lot to park their bike,
they made good time when they walked to the north entrance nearest to the
Robinson's-May Company department store. They were holding hands and
walking briskly, smiling at each other as they headed towards the
entrance when suddenly, something caught Faith's eye that immediately
changed her mood right away.

It was Angel, Spike, and Drusilla-her old friends from her delinquent
days before she straightened herself out in the Program, and they were at
the mall with them, whether they knew of each other's presence or not.
Buffy noticed Faith's change in demeanor too and looked to where she was
looking and immediately saw Angel and the two other little hoodlums from
her older girlfriend's past.

"I sincerely hope we won't run into them while we're here, right Faith?"

Faith said not a word as she quietly looked at the trio of thugs from her
wild days as they gallivanted noisily about upon nearing the sliding
doors of the north entrance.

"Faith, Faith, Faith....Earth to Faith....."

She suddenly snapped herself out of her trance and looked to Buffy with a
quieter and more somber look in her eye and demeanor as she took her in
her arms to exchange glances towards each other.

"Look, Buff, just stick with me and everything'll be all right, so just
do as I say, got it?"

"Okay, I'm with you....", said Buffy as they both walked away from them
and decided to enter via the Robinson's-May Company that was to their
right.

Once inside, they managed to avoid confronting Angel and his gang long
enough to go to the said jeans store and true to what Erique had been
saying, the sales girls and even the cashier were topless!

They all welcomed the girls in with open hearts and cheery waves as they
approached them to see if they'd like to make a purchase.

"Hi, I'm looking for some just broken in just washed jeans in the
5-pocket straight legged classic waist styled like in the 501 ads, miss",
Buffy inquired to one topless sales girl whose boobs were bouncing
slightly as part of her bubbly personality. Her blonde hair was tied up
in a bun and she had on solid gold serpentine bracelet up her left arm as
she smiled cheerily helping the blonde freshman girl to the new jeans
display table leaving Faith  to mingle and look around the place, until
she was approached by the manager who had her black hair cropped super
short upon her head as if sheared like a sheep.

"You seem lost and distracted by all these bare boobs, I see", said the
manager who was topless like her employees but her breasts were just tiny
little baseballs compared to the girls's more cosmetically
enhanced-looking ones they displayed proudly before the customers who
walked in to the shop.

"I'm the manager and I own the place so it's alright to take off your
shirt while your girlfriend's trying on a pair of our latest jeans.
She'll take a while, if you catch my drift."

Her words seemed to ring inside her mind as she thought it over until
without much further thought, she did just that. She removed her t-shirt
to reveal her own pair of bountiful cones for the manager and the staff
to see, but unfortunately, just in time for an unwanted passerby to
witness the spectacle.

It was Spike in his buzz-cutted orange dyed haired worst as he gazed
jokingly, but in a mean-spirited fashion that made the manager give him a
dirty look.

"Well, well, well, wouldtcha look at what the cat dragged in from the
alley last night?!!!"

He catcalled and hollered loudly, making all sorts of obscene gestures
and grimaces, all with his tongue, which made the manager even madder
still.

"Get outta here you worthless bum or I'm calling security! Now scram!!!"

"Angel's gonna hear about this!", Spike yelled as he hightailed it away
from the store window, which made Faith regret ever having brought Buffy
here. It was not too long until Buffy made her purchase at the cashier of
two pairs of rinsed indigo jeans and rejoined Faith who had her shirt
back over her breasts just so as to walk out into the mall.

"Buffy, you ready?"

"Yeah, sure. You hungry?"

"Why don't we get the hell outta here first and foremost", said Faith as
she grabbed Buffy by the arm and dragged her quickly towards the north
entrance/exit.

However, this would not be the end of things for she told of Spike
spotting her here inside the store which made her even more nervous than
ever before because he ran off to tell Angel of her presence here, so
they both hurriedly made their way towards the exit as fast as they could
with Buffy clutching her bag of newly purchased pairs of jeans in her
left hand.They were nearing the exit when suddenly they heard an
altercation taking place that sounded like Angel and....Cordelia!......

They rushed over to where the altercation was coming from for it was at
the food court where Angel, Spike, and Drusilla had begun to harass Cordy
and Xander who were also there at the Galleria on account of picking up
her mother's birthday gift.

"I don't love you anymore, Liam! Xander's my boyfriend now!"

"She's right, ass-hole, so back off!"

"Don't you ever push me, you little shrimp!"

Angel and Xander were in a shoving match with the younger kid being
shoved down to the floor when Faith and Buffy had arrived.

"Angel, leave'em alone,right now! They're my girlfriend's friends so back
off!" yelled Faith as she stormed towards Angel and his thugs,ready for a
confrontation.

"So if it 'aint the little turncoat who walked out on us. What's a
matter, sweet-cheeks? Returned for some good sweet lovin', huh?!"

"I'm no longer a part of your little pack anymore, Liam, so do us a favor
and leave'em be or else...."

"Or else what?", chirped in Drusilla ready to fight Faith along side her
leader.

Faith got right into Angel's face and began to stare each other down-up
close and personal, neither budging nor going forward for that matter.

"Or else.....I'll see to it that you end wind up in the hospital with
your friends, with a whole mess of broken bones, so whaddya say? You and
me go at it somewhere else at some other time?"

"Bitch...yer lookin' for a bruisin' and yer definitely gonna get it....in
the time and place of my choosin', got it?"

"Got it, and you can count it, too...."

Angel backed away and stormed off with Spike and Dru following him
indignantly, but Angel angrily shut them up quicker than you could call
for silence in a classroom.

After they had left, Faith turned to Xander and Cordy.

"You two okay?"

"Normally, I don't do this sort of thing, but, thanks...thanks for saving
us both Faith. I appreciate it greatly and graciously", said Cordelia to
Faith as she turned to Xander.

"Xander, let's get outta here..."

And for once, the four concurred with each other and left the Galleria
just the security guards were just approaching them.

It was at a Del Taco/Naugle's that Buffy talked with Cordelia about
Angel.

"Why did you not tell me that Angel was your ex-boyfriend?"

"I didn't want to alarm any of you and besides it's been over a long time
now as Faith will attest to you. Our relationship was just plain sour
from the get-go before you came onto campus. Did he look at you at all in
anyway, whatsoever?"

"No. I just stayed out of the way and let Faith have it out with him. She
told me that she was a part of his gang, but no longer tied to him or his
pals, if whatever few he has still left."

"Oh believe me, sweetheart, he's got lots a friends, and definitely from
outside of campus as well as some inside at school, too. He's a transfer
from another school like you, only he was released from juvie hall
provided he go back to school and make something of himself like Faith is
doing right now. She did tell you she got into some trouble while she was
in his gang, did she?"

"Believe me, Cordelia. She confessed everything to me, I mean, how bad of
a nerkwad is he?"

"He's real bad! In fact, he's the biggest douchbag in the entire
universe, but let's not talk anymore because I wanna eat so I get my
Mom's birthday gift home so we can all go to the club tonight."

They all ate their lunches together and said not another word about the
incident after that.

Later that evening, at the Velvet Dragon, everyone from school was there,
including an invited guest: Erique Allynne Bradshaw.

The entire main meeting hall had been temporarily converted into a dance
floor with an old fashioned vintage jukebox playing classic rock which
had everyone dancing on their feet on the mini dance floor. Willow and
Tara were in each other's arms and took not their eyes off of each other,
even as the Bad Company song "Ready For Love"
began to play, which made them both slow dance to its seductive beat.

In each other's arms, they stared longingly and lovingly into each
other's eyes as they each exchanged words to pleasure each other by.

"I love you Willow Rosenberg."

"I love you, too, Tara Prentice-Halliwell."

They kissed each other deeply and lovingly on the lips as they
slow-jammed to the rest of "Ready for Love, while at the other end.......

Xander, Cordy, and Kennedy were at their table when the older girl looked
deeply into her younger boyfriend's eyes.

"Xandykins, would you mind it very much if you could leave me and Kennedy
alone for just a few minutes?"

"Sure, I'll be at the fountain with the others", said Xander as he
excused himself from Kennedy's presence to walk towards the fountain.
With him gone, she turned to face her younger version of herself as the
14-year old girl looked straight at her into her eyes.

"Kennedy, would you please be a dear and get down on your knees
underneath the table and.....do me?"

With those words coming from her mistress's mouth, Kennedy, the sneaky
little rodent smiled devilishly at her, replying, "anything for you, my
dear mistress..."

And with that, she crawled under the table, got between Cordy's legs,
pulled up her tank dress and proceeded to fellate her, which sent her
into the highest state of ecstacy imagineable on Earth.

Meanwhile out on the dance floor, Buffy and Faith were having the time of
their life with Erique from Parkfield City High as they proceeded to cut
some more moves on the dance floor.

"Whaddya think? You like?"

"Ooh, I like it, I like it! Does this club have some backrooms for....you
know...."

"Of course, but after this set of songs", said Faith as they danced away
still while back at the table.....

Xander returned just in time to see Cordelia orgasming into Kennedy's
mouth and once finished, she raised herself from beneath the table and
got to within Cordy's face and turned to face Xander.

"Liked what you just seen, hey, Xander boy?"

The fellow programee licked her lips to Cordelia's approval, prompting
the junior to say something more.

"Let's all retire to the backrooms for some more loving, shall we?"

With that said, all three of them left for the backrooms, prompting
Faith, Buffy, and Erique to do the same, leaving only Willow and Tara to
kiss some more on the dance floor.

As they kissed, they stopped for a moment to look into each other's eyes,
exchanging some final words for the evening.

"So, do you still want me to be your apprentice and for me to impart to
you the ways and meaning of my faith, Tara?"

"You bet I do, but do you still want to undergo it despite the risks?"

"Yes, Tara, I do because I've fallen so much in love with you and I want
to be with you, if you will have me as your ladywoman at school."

"Oh, yes, Willow, I do want you to be with me for as long as I am able to
teach you the Craft...."

They said not a word as they kissed each passionately out on the dance
floor as the rest of the evening wore on inside the Velvet Dragon Youth
Club.
