“You found me,” Ripper stated, looking up at his gran defiantly. “What now?”

“Depends on you, I suppose,” she replied, settling herself into the bench opposite him. “The Council are cleaning up the mess with the police. You are in the clear.”

 

“How do you know it was me?” he challenged.

 

“Rupert, I’ve been practicing magicks since I was a child, do you honestly think I would be unable to trace the signature back to you?”

 

His shoulders dropped and he let out a raggedy sigh. “I tried to stop it, Gran.”

 

 

“I know, my dear boy. Let’s go home.”

"Let's go home." Giles hardly heard Willow's whisper. He didn't register the door as she and Tara left his flat. Giles sat motionless, internally arguing.

Willow's suggestion was reckless. Risky, incredulous, dangerous. He told her so.

But not impossible.

With the first whispers of dusk, Giles started. She would be hunting now - no, she should be hunting now. Giles stood abruptly and removed an ancient manuscript from a false panel in the bookshelf. His hands shook holding the Papyrus of Ani: The Egyptian Book of the Dead.

He could do it. No, he should

Giles struck a match and wept.
