Suddenly she found herself in an underground crypt of some sort. An ancient vampire was coming towards her – she ran. Vampires and other demons were rushing at her from all directions. Closing in…

She tried to scream but her cries were muffled by the hands grabbing at her…

“Buffy!” She woke with a start. Just a dream…

“You don’t want to be late for your first day of school.”

Buffy sat up in bed. “Wouldn’t want that…” she said under her breath. Buffy got dressed and went downstairs for breakfast. Joyce was looking for her car keys.

“I’m going to go look at a space for the gallery. Here’s some lunch money. Won’t it be nice to be able walk to school?”

Joyce found her keys, and stopped and took a look at her daughter. “Okay. Have a good time today. I know you're gonna make friends right away, just think positive. Oh, and honey? Try not to get kicked out?”

“I promise.”
