Gunn shifted uneasily on his feet. “Something ain’t right. I can feel it.”
“You feel it too?” Fred asked.
“Yeah,” he said. “It’s the same feeling I got when Cordy was possessed.” He looked down the hallway. “I’m gonna see if Wes needs help. You okay here?”
Fred held up her stun gun. “I’ll be fine.”
As Gunn left, Fred began talking to Buffy. “I know you’re asleep, but I can still talk to you, right? You just won’t answer back.” She checked the setting on the stun gun. “I know what it’s like. I was stuck in Pylea for five years. They do things there. They treat humans like animals.” She shuddered at the memory. “Breeding people like cattle. They even called us cows. Before I escaped and found a cave to hide in, they did things to me.”
Buffy had awakened and was listening silently to Fred talk. If she had one person that believed her, she might have a chance to stop Giles before he hurt anyone else.
“They shoved me into a room with a really big guy. When he didn’t do what they wanted, they demonstrated what he should do. Raped by a green demon. I’m glad it only lasted long enough to show the other guy what to do. Turns out that the human guy couldn’t get an erection. They must’ve thought I was the cause of it because they dragged me out and sent in another girl.”
“But you weren’t raped by someone you thought you loved.”
Fred almost dropped her stun gun when she suddenly heard Buffy’s voice. It took her a moment to recover. “Not in Pylea,” she said. “After Angel, Wesley, and Charles saved me, I lived with them in L.A. I became good friends with Wesley and fell in love with Charles.”
“What happened?” Buffy asked quietly.
“They got infected by some demon blood and attacked me. It made them stronger and more aggressive. If I hadn’t knocked them out, they might have killed me.”
“Did they rape you?”
“No, but the things they said to me made it feel like they had.”
“You forgave them,” Buffy said, not quite asking the question on her mind.
“It wasn’t their fault. They couldn’t control themselves,” Fred explained.
“I’ll never forgive Giles. He should go to hell for what he did to me.”
“I’m sure there’s a logical explanation for what happened—”
“Really?” Buffy shouted. “He’s a man. That’s explanation enough. They all want the same thing, and they don’t care how they get it. Then, the next day, they pretend like it never happened. I really thought Giles was different, but he’s just like all the rest.”
Fred tried to think of something to calm Buffy, but nothing came to mind. “Maybe I’ll just wait outside.”

Merissa tried to slip away when Giles was distracted, but he caught her with a hand around her throat. “I’m not finished with you.” He glanced at Wesley. “I think our new friend wants to join the fun. Would you like to fuck her pussy while I fuck her ass?” He winked. “Or were you hoping I’d fuck you while you fucked her?”
Merissa squirmed and tried to speak, he tightened his grip a little. “I can still get my pleasure if you’re dead,” Giles warned her. She stopped immediately.
Wesley was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t really prepared himself for the possibility of Giles behaving this way. “Let her go. You can do what you want to me, but release her.” He ran through a number of spells in his head, but realized he’d never be fast enough to use any of them.
“Why? Is she special? Or are you impatient?” Giles asked, turning back to Merissa. “You’re going to face the wall, and you’ll stay there this time. Understand?”
She nodded, afraid to speak. All thoughts of using the spell had vanished from her mind. She doubted she’d even remember the words now.
“Mr. Giles you must stop at once!” Wesley shouted. He took a few steps towards them and was stopped by an invisible barrier.
Giles smiled at him. “You were once a Watcher, Wesley. Do you still like to watch?” he asked as he unzipped his pants.

Gunn didn’t know why he thought he could find Wesley or Giles by himself. He was hopelessly lost. As he turned another corner, he bumped into someone.
“Hey! Watch where you’re going!”
“Sorry,” he said before he recognized the voice. “Faith?” He looked at her companion. “Willow?”
“Right on both counts,” Faith said. “What are you going here?”
“Buffy called Wes. He brought me and Fred with him. Fred’s with Buffy, and Wes went to find Giles.”
Faith and Willow shared a concerned look. “Not good,” Willow muttered.
“We need to find Wes and explain things to him,” Faith said. She turned to Willow. “Can you find him?” Willow nodded, already working on a locator spell. She took off down the hall. Faith followed. “Come on,” she said, grabbing Gunn’s arm. “I’ll explain everything on the way.”
By the time they reached Giles, Wesley, and Merissa, Gunn had been brought up to speed. He had trouble understanding it all, but he believed Faith and Willow.
They ran into an invisible barrier before they reached Giles. Wesley seemed equally stuck from his location. Giles and Merissa were between them.
“She doesn’t deserve this,” Wesley pleaded as he watched Giles pull his cock out of his pants.
“Do you really believe that, Wesley?” Giles asked. “Tell him what you did, Merissa. Tell him how much fun you had at my expense.” He lifted her skirt and ran his hand over her ass. He dipped a finger into the waistband of her panties.
“I didn’t do anything,” Merissa said.
Willow began testing the magical barrier as the others watched the scene helplessly.
“No. Of course not,” Giles sneered. He ripped her panties off and ran his finger along the crack of her ass.
Faith could feel the magick, and it made her nervous. Knowing Willow could hold her own against Giles, especially with Wesley and Gunn there to help, she decided to help in other ways.
“I’m gonna go search Merissa’s room while she’s is occupied,” she whispered to Gunn and Willow. “Catch ya later.” They’d discussed it as they’d explained things to Gunn earlier. When Merissa chose to live on campus, she agreed to live by the rules. According to those rules, they could search her room at any time, providing they had just cause. Faith hoped they were right, and she would find something to prove Merissa had planned all this.
Gunn nodded and waited for Willow to bring the barrier down.
Wesley and Gunn watched helplessly as Giles placed his cock against Merissa’s ass. He seemed to change his mind at the last moment. “I need some lubrication,” he said as he walked closer to the wall. “Suck it first. Get it nice and wet.”
Before Merissa could react, Willow brought the barrier down. Gunn and Wesley rushed Giles and held him. Merissa took the opportunity to stand and punch him. She stepped back when he didn’t even flinch, terror evident in her eyes.
Giles threw off Gunn and Wesley before turning to face Willow. She stood her ground, knowing she’d only get one chance. She threw both hands out and whispered a few words. Both Giles and Merissa were knocked off their feet. Merissa was out cold, but Giles was still conscious.
“That wasn’t very smart of you,” Giles sneered, getting back on his feet as though nothing had happened. He advanced on Willow.
Gunn was stunned as he watched the scene unfolding before him. He turned to Wesley to see if he’d been hurt. Slowly and quietly rising to his feet, Wesley was deep in concentration. Gunn followed his lead and stayed back, willing to let Willow and Wesley take the lead.
Willow tried to gather enough strength to hit him again. It wasn’t there, but she wouldn’t let Giles know that. Instead, she distracted Giles in the hope that Wesley had a trick or two up his sleeve.
Right as Giles reached her, he was lit with an orange glow from behind. She watched as he toppled to the side. Gunn joined them as they waited to see if he would get up again. After a long moment, Wesley asked, “Mind telling me what’s going on here?”
