Secrets
By Jamie Campbell

"Guess what people! We are going on a field trip!" the boring school teacher exclaimed with forced excitment "To Sunnydale High School for a special ceremony for the Science department".

Sabrina looked at Harvey and gave a half smile half groan. "A school trip? Can you say boring?".

"Maybe it won't be that bad. I mean, at least we can keep oursleves amused singing '100 bottles of beer on the wall' on the bus", trust Harvey to find someway of incorporating that song into everything, Sabrina thought.

After a long journey the school bus with painted letters clearly marked "Riverdale High School" on the side, came to a halt at the unfamiliar school gates of Sunnydale High.

"Oh look! Theres the people for the science ceremony!" Willow, a shy, but very intelligent girl, remarked.

"Great! Some more dorks to laugh and make jokes at my expense", Xander Harris responded.

"Why would they laugh at you? Your so...so..okay, whats the word I'm looking for here?" said Buffy.

"Handsome? Sexy?" Xander was hopeful anyway.

"Modest?" Willow teased.

"Actually I was thinking maybe cute." "Maybe cute? Yeah, I like that answer, Buffy, stick to that" Xander was such a nice guy that both Willow and Buffy couldn't help laughing to themselselves. By now, the Riverdale student were out of the bus and heading towards the auditorium being led my Principal Snyder of Sunnydale High.

"Oh no, Harvey, I left my bag on the bus, I'll be right back." "Okay Sabrina, I'll come with you, I'm in no rush to get inside." With that said, the two slowly walked back to retrieve the missing item.

"Hi, are you here for the Science thing?" Sabrina eyed the girl and her friends with curiosity.

"Yeah, I'm Sabrina, and this is Harvey".

"I'm Willow and this is Buffy and that's..."

"Xander, I'm Xander, Hi...uh, nice to please you, I mean pleased to meet you". A nice shade of red flashing over his face for a second.

"So you go to this school?"

"Yeah. Listen, if you wanted to see the science people, you better hurry, I think they have started"

"Oh, we were made to come. Science? No thanks!" Harvey butted in.

"Well, you can come and hang in the Library with us if you want. No-one goes in there, so we won't get caught" Willow nudged Xander a little bit, silently asking if this was a good idea. But Buffy proceded. "It's just this way". For some reason Buffy picked up that this girl was different from the others. Maybe it was her spider sense. Thoughts flashed through her mind like she could be a Vampire, but it was daylight so that couldn't be possible, either way, she wanted to know more about this girl and why she was so strange.

What will happen at the library? Will Buffy uncover Sabrina's secret? Find out next week...
