RATING: NC-17 hoo baby!
SUMMARY: Buffy does a bad bad thing, again, and not alone.
WARNINGS/SPOILERS: All adults are sexual beings and have needs, even Watchers and their former charges. If it ooks you out, you might want to skip this part.

THANKS: To my lovely betas who have encouraged me to release the inner smut inside me. Cock!
Telling Again
Out of breath from running, ‘that’s all,’ Buffy found herself once again standing in front of Giles’ door. Sighing, she wiped the sweat off her forehead with sticky fingers that she hurriedly wiped on her shorts. She knocked loudly and called out, “Giles, it’s me, let me in!”
After a few moments the door opened, Giles was standing there, hair mussed, shirtless; pants zipped but unbuttoned, riding low on his hips. “Buffy, what’s wrong?”
“Oh there’s a whole world of wrong out there,” Buffy said. She walked in pushing him to the side, getting a little shock as her hands brushed one of his nipples. ‘And a whole world of wrong in my brain too.’
“Uh, well, okay.” Giles closed the door, turned and followed her to the couch.
“Giles, before I tell you what’s going on, you’re gonna need to get one of those drinks of yours. Make it a double. And while you’re at it make me one. With Tab.”
Giles opened his mouth as if to say something, then closed it, went to the kitchen, and returned bearing beverages. He sat down, next to her, grasped her hand and said, “Now, Buffy, tell me what’s going on.”
She stared at her hand in horror, shuddered, disengaged and grasped her drink and drank half of it very quickly. “Whoa, that’s potent! Okay, here goes.”
Hesitatingly she began to tell Giles about what she saw when she left earlier that night. Unknowingly as she recalled her own actions her hands once again began to creep as if of their own accord towards her breasts. Buffy reached under her tank top and began caressing and rolling and pinching her own nipples. Buffy moaned. As Buffy’s hands moved down her belly, she closed her eyes. Buffy’s hands slowly carefully crept under her waistband. She bit her lip as her fingers slid under her panties and dipped into her sopping wet pussy. Buffy’s fingers dipped into and up and down her slit. She circled and stroked her clit. As if in a trance she continued to tell her story until suddenly Buffy stiffened and gasped in orgasm as something warm and wet and sticky splashed her on the face. Instinctively, she flicked out her tongue to taste a familiar saltiness and instantly snapped back to reality when she realized what it was and what she had just done.
When she opened her eyes, she stared at Giles who was sitting across from her, pants open, penis in hand, wearing a expression matching the mix of shock, horror, self-disgust and satisfaction that she felt on her own face, that was dripping with cum. Giles’ cum. That was the thought that broke her paralysis. She jumped up and ran for the bathroom. She heard Giles behind her running for the back of the house.
After Buffy had washed her face and hands. And stared in the mirror and fixed her hair. And gave herself a couple of pep talks. “Come on, you can go out there and face Giles. It’s not like he wasn’t doing the same thing. Oh God! He was doing the same thing. I saw Giles’ dick! He came on my face! I tasted Giles’ cum!”
She almost began hyperventilating before she was able to calm her self down and take deep slow breaths. “ So what? Giles’ has a dick. You always knew he had one. Mom had apparently enjoyed it.”
That actually calmed her down enough to chuckle. “Okay, you can do it. He’s probably as embarrassed as you are.”
Buffy heard moving about in the kitchen. It sounded like he was making tea. When she heard a whistle, she was sure. Buffy composed herself, adjusted her clothing one last time and walked out of the bathroom.
Giles was sitting at the table with two mugs in front of him. When he saw her, he gestured for her to sit down, handed her a mug and opened his mouth to speak. “Buffy, I…”
She held her hand out. “Nope, stop. We will never mention this again. It goes to the dustiest, least used part of our brains and will be locked away forever. As a matter of fact we will throw away the key to that part of our brains and forget about it completely. This never happened; therefore we cannot possibly discuss this, ever. Agreed?”
Giles opened his mouth, closed it, ran his fingers through his hair, sighed, and said, “Agreed.”
“And Giles?”
“Yes?”
”Please stop running your fingers through your hair.”

TITLE: Part 7 Watching
SERIES: Untitled
AUTHOR: libco
PAIRING: Xander/Spike/Anya
RATING: NC-17 hoo baby!
SUMMARY: Buffy sees something naughty and does something naughtier.
WARNINGS/SPOILERS: Spandya! Buffy indulges in some auto manipulation.
DISCLAIMER: Nothing belongs to me; it is all Joss and his minions.
DISTRIBUTION: Ask me, I’d be thrilled
NOTES: AU season six, Buffy did not die, Spike saved her, his chip however still does not work on her.
FEEDBACK: Please
THANKS: Betas Dinah, Kris, Nikita, Tania, and Tehaunu. Also Kristi, the first friend I’ve told about my secret life as a smutster!
Watching
Buffy was standing outside the Harris-Jenkins household pondering what to do next. She had crept up to the same living room window that she’d peeped in before only to find it empty except for a leather jacket (Spike’s?) thrown over the back of the couch and a pair of size 11 white sneakers (Xander’s?) on the floor. She decided that if she was going to spy on her friends she might as well go all the way.
She crept around to the back of the house. “Bingo,” she whispered. She had a perfect view of the bedroom. Anya was kneeling on the bed facing the foot. Xander was kneeling in front of her at the end of the bed and they were kissing passionately with arms wrapped around each other’s naked bodies. Buffy sighed in relief until Spike walked in the room. She was stunned. She had seen him with Anya but she hadn’t realized how truly beautiful he was until this moment. He looked a marble statue of a Greek or Roman God, maybe even like David. “Wow.”
He walked behind Xander, put his arms around him and began kissing the back of his neck. Xander’s head fell back while Anya pulled away. She and Spike began working their way in sync down Xander’s surprisingly well muscled body, one in front and one in back. “Boy Xander, that construction work has really paid off,” Buffy whispered.
Anya reached Xander’s chest and was running her tongue around one of Xander’s nipples while Spike licked down his spine, hands busy pinching and rolling Xander’s other nipple. Xander’s eyes were closed and his mouth fell open in obvious pleasure. Spike worked his way down to the small of Xander’s back as Anya licked down to his stomach. As Anya reached Xander’s respectably large penis, she got down on all fours. As she took his penis in her mouth Spike knelt on the floor and spread Xander’s buttocks. Xander had one hand on Anya’s shoulder and one on Spike’s, as if without them he would collapse. While Anya sucked in front, Spike licked in back. Xander’s shoulders began to heave and his grip appeared to tighten on his partners’ shoulders. Finally he pushed them both away. Anya grinned, got back on her knees and wiped her mouth. Spike stood, smiled, grabbed Anya and began to kiss her deeply. Xander, apparently recovered, said something and pushed his way back between the two. Anya lay back on the bed and Xander got on top of her and began kissing her. He began moving his way down her body and as he got to her breasts he alternated squeezing them and rolling her nipples with his fingers with sucking each one in turn.
Buffy who had been kneeling against the side of the house found her hands involuntarily creeping towards her own breasts. Buffy reached under her tank top and began mimicking Xander’s actions, rolling and pinching her own nipples. Buffy repressed a moan. As Buffy’s hands moved down her belly she watched Spike return into view rubbing his large, uncircumcised penis. He had a tube in his hands and she watched mesmerized as he squeezed some clear fluid onto the fingers of his right hand and reached behind Xander spreading him with his left hand. Xander arched his back as Spike moved his fingers in and out. As Spike removed his fingers from Xander leaned forward, and began to lick at Anya’s clitoris. She closed her eyes. As Spike carefully slowly began to slide into Xander Buffy’s hands slowly carefully crept under her waistband. She bit her lip as her fingers slid under her panties and dipped into her sopping wet pussy. Spike stroked in and out of Xander, Xander’s tongue dipped into Anya and licked up and down her slit as Buffy fingers did the same to her own. Suddenly Spike stiffened and gripped Xander’s hips hard enough to leave red fingerprints. Anya’s hands gripped Xander’s shoulders leaving matching prints and Buffy fell forward, forehead on the ground, breasts heaving as she came with her own powerful and silent orgasm.

TITLE: Part 6 Smashed (sort of)
SERIES: Still need a series title
AUTHOR: libco
PAIRING: Xander/Spike/Anya
RATING: NC-17 Overall
SUMMARY: Smashed (sort of)
WARNINGS/SPOILERS: Mild Spuffiness and more naughty thoughts of Giles.
DISCLAIMER: Nothing belongs to me; it is all Joss and his minions.
DISTRIBUTION: Just ask, I’d be thrilled
NOTES: AU season six, Buffy did not die, Spike saved her.
FEEDBACK: Please
THANKS: Joan the English chick for transcribing this on Buffy vs Angel and betas Dinah, Kris, Nikita, Tania, and Tehaunu.
Smashed (sort of)
Giles stood, “What do you mean his chip doesn’t work on you?!”
“His chip doesn’t work on me.”
“Since when?”
“Since I jumped through the portal”
Giles sat back down and ran his fingers through his hair, mussing it sexily. ‘Brain I told you to stop that. Giles is not sexy.’ Buffy ordered herself.
“Let me get a drink, and then you will tell me what happened,” he commanded.
“Okay, can I have one too?”
“Diet soda?”
“With something stronger?”
“I thought we learned our lesson after the demon bar incident…?”
“Giles.”
“Just a splash then.”
He handed her a drink and sat down.
She began to tell him about what happened earlier that year.
Flashback to Buffy walking down a dark alley. Spike steps out in front of her.
SPIKE: (angrily) Slayer.
BUFFY: And so my night is now complete.
SPIKE: You never showed.
BUFFY: (walks past him) Sorry. Little busy actually doing stuff.
SPIKE: (walks beside her) You shouldn't be so flip, luv.
BUFFY: What are you going to do, walk behind me to death?
SPIKE: I'm just saying things might be a little different.
Spike walks around in front of her again. They stop walking.
SPIKE: You ought to be careful.
BUFFY: (shakes head) Enough.
She moves to walk around him, but he shifts to block her path.
BUFFY: (small puzzled smile) Get out of my way.
SPIKE: Or what?
Buffy shrugs, punches him in the face. Spike reels a little, catches himself, pauses. Then he hits her in the face, spinning her around. Buffy straightens up, turns back to him.
SPIKE: (mockingly) Oh, the pain! The pain! (grimly) Is gone.
Buffy stares.
SPIKE: Guess what I just found out. Looks like I'm not as toothless as you thought, sweetheart.
BUFFY: (alarmed) How?
SPIKE: Don't you get it? Don't you see? (sneering) You came through wrong.
Buffy stares in disbelief.
Buffy stalks forward angrily, punches Spike in the face. He staggers back but laughs. Buffy hits him again, kicks him, driving him farther down the alley. She goes to punch him but he grabs her arm and punches her with his other hand. Buffy stumbles into a fence, turns around. Spike gets up in her face.
BUFFY: It's a trick. You did something to the chip, it's a trick.
SPIKE: It's no trick. It's not me, it's you. Just you, in fact, that's the funny part. (punches her in the face) 'Cause you're the one that's changed. (punches again) That's why this doesn't hurt me.
He swings but Buffy blocks and shoves him back.
SPIKE: (grins) Came through a little less human than you were.
BUFFY: (shakes head) You're wrong.
She kicks him hard. He flies back into the opposite wall, but immediately bounces back and comes back over to her.
SPIKE: Then how come you're so spooked, luv? And why can I - (punches her) do that?
Buffy slowly looks back over at him, panting.
BUFFY: You're wrong.
She hits him again, even harder. He falls down, gets up, grinning. Buffy hits him again and he goes down again, gets up again. She pushes him backward into a doorway, follows him up the stairs, grabs him. They crash through the door into the building.
Spike punches Buffy in the face, hard. She punches him twice, then shoves him back. He stumbles back against the refrigerator. Buffy kicks Spike and he flies back into the living room. Buffy strides into the room after Spike, stands watching as he gets up.
SPIKE: (grinning) Oh, poor little lost girl.
He jumps up, grabs the chandelier. Swings forward on it and kicks Buffy in the face with both his feet. She goes down.
SPIKE: (drops to the floor) She doesn't fit in anywhere. She's got no one to love.
He walks over to Buffy, who gets up, grabs him, throws him against the staircase leading upstairs, smashing the banister to bits. Buffy walks toward him.
BUFFY: Me? I'm lost? Look at you, you idiot! (Spike getting up) Poor Spikey. Can't be a human, can't be a vampire. Where the hell do you fit in?
Spike swings at her but she ducks, punches him in the stomach, grabs him and throws him across the room again. He smashes into the fireplace. Buffy walks toward him again.
BUFFY: Your job is to kill the slayer. But all you can do is follow me around making moon eyes.
SPIKE: I'm in love with you.
BUFFY: (still advancing) You're in love with pain. Admit it. (Spike gets up) You like me ... because you enjoy getting beat down. So really, who's screwed up?
SPIKE: Hello! Vampire!
He swings at her again, but she blocks and punches him. Spike grabs her, pulls her closer.
SPIKE: I'm supposed to be treading on the dark side.
He throws her against the wall. Spike goes over to her, throws her across the room again. She lands on her back. Spike stands over her, leans down, grabs her by the front lapels of her jacket.
SPIKE: What's your excuse?
Buffy puts her hand over his face, shoves him away. He flies backward, taking a chunk out of a wall. He staggers to his feet.
Buffy leaps at him and they fly back toward the staircase.
Spike has Buffy pinned against the stairs. He chuckles. Buffy punches him. He punches her back, lifts her up to look in her face.
SPIKE: I wasn't planning on hurting you. (smirks) Much.
BUFFY: You haven't even come close to hurting me.
SPIKE: Afraid to give me the chance?
Buffy breaks his hold, throws him against a wall. Buffy grabs Spike and pushes him up against the wall.
SPIKE: You afraid I'm gonna-
Buffy shuts him up by kissing him. They kiss passionately.
Buffy pushes away, puts her fingers to her lips. They stand, staring. They both flee in opposite directions.
“Good God Buffy,” Giles took off his glasses and began to clean them, “why did you never tell me?”
“Well you were gone Giles, trying to make me grow up.”
“Oh right.”
“Did anything else happen?
“Well I went to go talk to Tara about it.”
TARA: I-I've double-checked everything. (smiling) There's nothing wrong with you.
BUFFY: Then why can Spike hurt me?
TARA: Well, I said that there was nothing wrong with you, but ... you are different. Diving through the portal ... i-it, it altered you on a basic molecular level. Probably just enough to confuse the sensors or whatever in Spike's chip. But it's all just surfacey physical stuff. It wouldn't have any more effect than ... a bad sunburn.
Buffy contemplates this.
BUFFY: I didn't come through wrong?
TARA: No, you're the same Buffy. (lightly) With a deep tropical cellular tan.
BUFFY: You must have missed something. Will you check again?
TARA: (concerned) Buffy, I-I promise, there's nothing wrong with you.
BUFFY: There has to be! This just can't be me, it isn't me. (starting to cry) Why do I feel like this? Why did I try to…?
TARA: Try to what?
BUFFY: Nothing.
“And there’s nothing wrong with his chip?”
“No. He had Warren Mears check it out.”
“And that is?”
“Robot boy.”
“Ahh. And there haven’t been anymore, ahem, confrontations since then.”
“No, “ Buffy blushed remembering the cemetery.

“Really? ‘Cuz I sensed a speech coming on.”
“Well perhaps but you know, I think I’ll skip it this time around. It’s been a long and emotionally difficult evening. Nothing has happened yet so let’s just sleep on this information and see what pans out.”
“Good idea Giles.” Buffy rose, walked towards the door. “Good night.”
“Good night.”
Buffy stood outside the door, contemplated the night sky for a moment and headed away from Revello Drive.

Smashed (sort of)
Giles stood, “What do you mean his chip doesn’t work on you?!”
“His chip doesn’t work on me.”
“Since when?”
“Since I jumped through the portal”
Giles sat back down and ran his fingers through his hair, mussing it sexily. ‘Brain I told you to stop that. Giles is not sexy.’ Buffy ordered herself.
“Let me get a drink, and then you will tell me what happened,” he commanded.
“Okay, can I have one too?”
“Diet soda?”
“With something stronger?”
“I thought we learned our lesson after the demon bar incident…?”
“Giles.”
“Just a splash then.”
He handed her a drink and sat down.
She began to tell him about what happened earlier that year.
Flashback to Buffy walking down a dark alley. Spike steps out in front of her.
SPIKE: (angrily) Slayer.
BUFFY: And so my night is now complete.
SPIKE: You never showed.
BUFFY: (walks past him) Sorry. Little busy actually doing stuff.
SPIKE: (walks beside her) You shouldn't be so flip, luv.
BUFFY: What are you going to do, walk behind me to death?
SPIKE: I'm just saying things might be a little different.
Spike walks around in front of her again. They stop walking.
SPIKE: You ought to be careful.
BUFFY: (shakes head) Enough.
She moves to walk around him, but he shifts to block her path.
BUFFY: (small puzzled smile) Get out of my way.
SPIKE: Or what?
Buffy shrugs, punches him in the face. Spike reels a little, catches himself, pauses. Then he hits her in the face, spinning her around. Buffy straightens up, turns back to him.
SPIKE: (mockingly) Oh, the pain! The pain! (grimly) Is gone.
Buffy stares.
SPIKE: Guess what I just found out. Looks like I'm not as toothless as you thought, sweetheart.
BUFFY: (alarmed) How?
SPIKE: Don't you get it? Don't you see? (sneering) You came through wrong.
Buffy stares in disbelief.
Buffy stalks forward angrily, punches Spike in the face. He staggers back but laughs. Buffy hits him again, kicks him, driving him farther down the alley. She goes to punch him but he grabs her arm and punches her with his other hand. Buffy stumbles into a fence, turns around. Spike gets up in her face.
BUFFY: It's a trick. You did something to the chip, it's a trick.
SPIKE: It's no trick. It's not me, it's you. Just you, in fact, that's the funny part. (punches her in the face) 'Cause you're the one that's changed. (punches again) That's why this doesn't hurt me.
He swings but Buffy blocks and shoves him back.
SPIKE: (grins) Came through a little less human than you were.
BUFFY: (shakes head) You're wrong.
She kicks him hard. He flies back into the opposite wall, but immediately bounces back and comes back over to her.
SPIKE: Then how come you're so spooked, luv? And why can I - (punches her) do that?
Buffy slowly looks back over at him, panting.
BUFFY: You're wrong.
She hits him again, even harder. He falls down, gets up, grinning. Buffy hits him again and he goes down again, gets up again. She pushes him backward into a doorway, follows him up the stairs, grabs him. They crash through the door into the building.
Spike punches Buffy in the face, hard. She punches him twice, then shoves him back. He stumbles back against the refrigerator. Buffy kicks Spike and he flies back into the living room. Buffy strides into the room after Spike, stands watching as he gets up.
SPIKE: (grinning) Oh, poor little lost girl.
He jumps up, grabs the chandelier. Swings forward on it and kicks Buffy in the face with both his feet. She goes down.
SPIKE: (drops to the floor) She doesn't fit in anywhere. She's got no one to love.
He walks over to Buffy, who gets up, grabs him, throws him against the staircase leading upstairs, smashing the banister to bits. Buffy walks toward him.
BUFFY: Me? I'm lost? Look at you, you idiot! (Spike getting up) Poor Spikey. Can't be a human, can't be a vampire. Where the hell do you fit in?
Spike swings at her but she ducks, punches him in the stomach, grabs him and throws him across the room again. He smashes into the fireplace. Buffy walks toward him again.
BUFFY: Your job is to kill the slayer. But all you can do is follow me around making moon eyes.
SPIKE: I'm in love with you.
BUFFY: (still advancing) You're in love with pain. Admit it. (Spike gets up) You like me ... because you enjoy getting beat down. So really, who's screwed up?
SPIKE: Hello! Vampire!
He swings at her again, but she blocks and punches him. Spike grabs her, pulls her closer.
SPIKE: I'm supposed to be treading on the dark side.
He throws her against the wall. Spike goes over to her, throws her across the room again. She lands on her back. Spike stands over her, leans down, grabs her by the front lapels of her jacket.
SPIKE: What's your excuse?
Buffy puts her hand over his face, shoves him away. He flies backward, taking a chunk out of a wall. He staggers to his feet.
Buffy leaps at him and they fly back toward the staircase.
Spike has Buffy pinned against the stairs. He chuckles. Buffy punches him. He punches her back, lifts her up to look in her face.
SPIKE: I wasn't planning on hurting you. (smirks) Much.
BUFFY: You haven't even come close to hurting me.
SPIKE: Afraid to give me the chance?
Buffy breaks his hold, throws him against a wall. Buffy grabs Spike and pushes him up against the wall.
SPIKE: You afraid I'm gonna-
Buffy shuts him up by kissing him. They kiss passionately.
Buffy pushes away, puts her fingers to her lips. They stand, staring. They both flee in opposite directions.
“Good God Buffy,” Giles took off his glasses and began to clean them, “why did you never tell me?”
“Well you were gone Giles, trying to make me grow up.”
“Oh right.”
“Did anything else happen?
“Well I went to go talk to Tara about it.”
TARA: I-I've double-checked everything. (smiling) There's nothing wrong with you.
BUFFY: Then why can Spike hurt me?
TARA: Well, I said that there was nothing wrong with you, but ... you are different. Diving through the portal ... i-it, it altered you on a basic molecular level. Probably just enough to confuse the sensors or whatever in Spike's chip. But it's all just surfacey physical stuff. It wouldn't have any more effect than ... a bad sunburn.
Buffy contemplates this.
BUFFY: I didn't come through wrong?
TARA: No, you're the same Buffy. (lightly) With a deep tropical cellular tan.
BUFFY: You must have missed something. Will you check again?
TARA: (concerned) Buffy, I-I promise, there's nothing wrong with you.
BUFFY: There has to be! This just can't be me, it isn't me. (starting to cry) Why do I feel like this? Why did I try to…?
TARA: Try to what?
BUFFY: Nothing.
“And there’s nothing wrong with his chip?”
“No. He had Warren Mears check it out.”
“And that is?”
“Robot boy.”
“Ahh. And there haven’t been anymore, ahem, confrontations since then.”
“No, “ Buffy blushed remembering the cemetery.
“Well Buffy, I’m not quite sure what to say about this. Once again you have rendered me completely speechless.”
“Really? ‘Cuz I sensed a speech coming on.”
“Well perhaps but you know, I think I’ll skip it this time around. It’s been a long and emotionally difficult evening. Nothing has happened yet so let’s just sleep on this information and see what pans out.”
“Good idea Giles.” Buffy rose, walked towards the door. “Good night.”
“Good night.”
Buffy stood outside the door, contemplated the night sky for a moment and headed away from Revello Drive.

Telling
Buffy stood in front of Giles door. ‘Surely it’s not too late? It’s only 10. Besides this is important.’ She took a deep breath and knocked.
Giles answered the door. He was wearing a blue silk shirt open at the neck with a pair of khaki slacks and he was barefoot. He looked sexy. ‘Shut up brain! You are not that horny.’ “Giles, can I come in? Something is going on!”
“Of course Buffy, come in. Sit. What’s wrong?”
Buffy sat and told Giles what she had overheard.
“And you said this demon was a Sleestak? I’ve never heard of a Sleestak demon. How do you know this?”
“No I said he looked like a Sleestak.”
“And what does a Sleestak look like?”
“From Land of the Lost? Ringing any bells here?”
“No,” Giles was becoming visibly exasperated.
She described the demon.
“So it was male, bipedal and reptilian?’
“Yes.”
“And it called itself Enik?”
“Yes.”
“Hmmm.”
“Did you confront Spike?”
“No, I thought it would be better to wait for more information, like who this Enik guy was working for, and what they want Spike to do.”
“Very good, but we really need to keep a close eye on the situation. Frankly I’m disappointed that Spike did not tell us about this development. I thought he had changed.”
“I think he was going to talk to Xander and Anya first.”
“Really? Why do you believe that?”
“It’s a long story and I still haven’t worked out the complexities of the relationship, but I believe the three are closer,” she paused, “friends that we had realized.”
“Well, I still think we need to closely watch Spike.”
“Oh I plan to.”
“Buffy you should take this seriously, if we are wrong about Spike changing then you will be the first he goes after if the chip is deactivated.”
“Well about that Giles…”
“Yes?”
“The chip doesn’t work on me.”

TITLE: Part 4 Laughter II
SERIES: Still need a series title
AUTHOR: libco
PAIRING: Xander/Spike/Anya
RATING: NC-17 Overall
SUMMARY: Buffy plays detective.
WARNINGS/SPOILERS: None, this time
DISCLAIMER: Nothing belongs to me; it is all Joss and his minions.
DISTRIBUTION: Just ask, I’d be thrilled
NOTES: AU season six, Buffy did not die, Spike saved her.
FEEDBACK: Please
THANKS: Betas Dinah, Kris, Nikita, Tania, and Tehaunu. Also thanks to annalise for being my second non-beta reader. It’s like being an actual writer!
Laughter II
It was laughter that made Buffy resolve to get to the bottom of the Xander puzzle.
It was laughter that startled Buffy out of her reverie. They had been fruitlessly researching the latest monster of the week and she had started to zone out when the sound of Xander’s laughter rang out. Buffy turned her head and saw a grinning Spike in his black leather jacket and black tee and jeans ensemble leaning over the counter to Xander telling him a long involved story about some movie involving Marilyn Monroe and cross dressing. “So then he tells him, ‘I’m a man’ and the guys says ‘Nobody’s perfect.’”
Xander snickered.
Anya rolled her eyes.
Xander smiled at her and announced to the group, “well, I’m researched out and I’m pretty hungry so, I think I’ll take my woman and go home.”
“That means everyone else has to leave too,” Anya said eagerly.
“Yes, Anya we get that.”
Everyone filtered out of the store.
“Willow, will you do me a favor and take Dawn home? There’s something I want to check out.”
“No problem. Can I help with anything?”
“Nah, it’s really just a hunch.”
“‘Kay, be careful.”
“Oh I plan to be.”
With that, Buffy grabbed a flashlight from the store and parted from the group. She did a quick walkabout and when she thought everyone had headed towards home she started in the direction of Anya and Xander’s house. As she thought Spike was walking beside Anya and Xander and all three were laughing and joking about something. He said something to them and all three veered into the convenience store on the way.
‘Good, they’re on the way home.’ Buffy headed in the opposite direction towards Spike’s crypt.
When she got there, she opened the door and flipped on the flashlight. TV, ratty couch, ‘couch?’ empty beer bottles, and an ashtray full of cigarettes. “Hmmm, let’s check the fridge shall we?” She opened the fridge and found some blood, assorted imported and American beers. “What are we hiding downstairs then?”
She climbed down the ladder and checked around. Unmade bed, tube of lubricant, “can we say ewww?” and a couple of pairs of shoes, including a very unSpikelike pair of Reeboks. Draped over a chair were black jeans, “check,” black tee shirt, “check,” and a Hawaiian shirt, “oho, what have we here?” She looked for the old Buffy Shrine corkboard and found a smattering of pictures of herself, Dawn, Willow and Tara, “awww,” and quite a few pictures of Xander and Anya, including ones that she had never had seen before. She pulled one Polaroid off and took a close look at it. The background appeared to be a wooden headboard, very similar to the one the bed she was sitting one. Xander was shirtless and Anya was holding on arm over what appeared to bare breasts. Buffy felt a strange feeling in the pit of her stomach. She shook it off and was going to look around some more when she heard noise upstairs. She quickly doused her light and crept towards the ladder ready hide if it was Spike. She heard some crashing around, some muffled cursing and then a thump. She slowly crawled up the ladder and peeped out. Spike was standing over what appeared to be a Sleestak from Land of the Lost. He had one foot on its shoulder and another on its head ready to snap its neck.
“And tell me again why I shouldn’t just kill you for intruding on my domain?”
“Ssssspike, I have a proposition for you.”
“Yeah, try again.”
“We know of your disability.”
“Uh huh, that’s nice, say goodbye…”
“Your chip.”
Silence.
“You just bought yourself a few minutes.”
“My employers have sent me to offer you a deal. We know of your willingness to work with unconventional allies, such as the Slayer.”
“Who are your employers?”
“I can’t really say.”
“You do realize I can still kill you?”
“Trust me, death is preferable to what they might do to me if I reveal anything they don’t want me to.”
Spike stepped away. “Tell me more.”
“Right now I can’t. We just would like you to think about and be receptive. I’ll return in a few days after you’ve had time to think about the concept and then I’ll give you more details.”
The demon stood, brushed himself off, did a couple of neck rolls. “By the way, I’m impressed, a vengeance demon?”
Spike stared hard at him. “What do I call you?”
“Enik.”
“How do I get a hold of you?”
“I’ll be in touch with you.”
And with that the demon strolled out.
Spike watched him leave then left himself without looking back.
Buffy heaved a sigh of relief. She finished climbing up, looked around and decided to have a talk with Giles.

“Trust me, death is preferable to what they might do to me if I reveal anything they don’t want me to.”
Spike stepped away. “Tell me more.”
“Right now I can’t. We just would like you to think about and be receptive. I’ll return in a few days after you’ve had time to think about the concept and then I’ll give you more details.”
The demon stood, brushed himself off, did a couple of neck rolls. “By the way, I’m impressed, a vengeance demon?”
Spike stared hard at him. “What do I call you?”
“Enik.”
“How do I get a hold of you?”
“I’ll be in touch with you.”
And with that the demon strolled out.
Spike watched him leave then left himself without looking back.
Buffy heaved a sigh of relief. She finished climbing up, looked around and decided to have a talk with Giles.

Getting Over It
When Buffy awoke she was just as confused as ever. Plus her night had been filled disturbingly erotic images of Spike and Anya. Disturbing mainly because they were erotic. “Yikes. Has Riley been gone that long?” she asked herself. She shook her head and went downstairs.
Downstairs Dawn and Tara were eating breakfast. “Mmmmm pancakes. Are there enough for me?”
Tara smiled. “Of course there are Buffy.”
“Great! Has Willow returned?”
“Yes, after he took Anya back to the hospital Spike brought her in sometime before dawn. You should have seen it, he was so sweet, he carried her upstairs without waking her up,” said Tara, smiling at the memory.
‘Yeah, I’ve seen how sweet he can be,’ thought Buffy savagely as she speared a piece of pancake. But she just nodded and raised her eyebrows.
“Yeah Buffy, he has really changed,” Dawn chimed in enthusiastically.
In her head Buffy was screaming, ‘if screwing Anya counts as changing I guess he has!’
‘Don’t forget about loving Xander,’ another part of her brain whispered.
“Ugh!”
“B-buffy? Is there something wrong with the pancakes?” Tara asked.
“No, I just bit my tongue,” she lied. “So what’s everyone doing today?”
“Well dearest sister of mine, I was hoping to go to the mall with Janice and maybe getting Xander a get well present but sadly, I have no money.”
Buffy rolled her eyes and went to get Dawn some money. “Fine, because it’s Xander, but we’re going to have curtail our spending after this. The insurance money is almost gone and since I’m not in school there is no student loan money. If it weren’t for the rent and grocery money that Willow and Tara are giving us, we’d be totally broke.”
“I’ll get an after school job.”
“No. You need to concentrate on school. I’m kind of hoping you’ll get a scholarship one day.”
“Buffy, Willow and I have some money saved up…”
“No, I’ll just have to get a job,” she paused and sighed. “Anyway enough of that for now. I’m going to the hospital to visit with Xander.”
She wondered what she would say to Anya when she saw her.
The answer was, not much. Anya was drawn and pale, with circles under her eyes. “How is he?”
“Actually he’s fine. He’s even woken up once. It’s just so hard seeing him like this. I’ve never seen him seriously hurt before.”
“Well he’ll get better.”
“I know he will, but what about next time? It won’t stop you know. He’ll keep on foolishly risking himself.”
“You don’t know that.”
“Don’t patronize me Buffy. You know it’s true. And it’s all you fault! If you had never met him…”
“Please don’t start this.”
“That’s right pet, leave it be. If it weren’t for Buffy, you would never have met our Xander.”
They turned to see Spike leaning in the doorway.
Anya sighed and sat down. “Fine. You’re right. It’s just so hard.”
Buffy stared at Spike. Images of muscled white flesh, entwined with honeyed limbs kept popping in her head.
“Done staring at me Slayer?”
“Huh? Oh! I wasn’t staring, I was…Hey! Do you want to go patrolling with me tonight? I’m pretty sure we didn’t kill all the sweater demons the other night.”
Spike shook his head and sighed. “Anhkora demons.”
“Whatever.”
“They’re releasing the boy this afternoon. After I help Anya get him settled I’ll pop by your house and we’ll go kill some demons.”
“Great.”
Later that evening Buffy was pacing the house.
“Buffy! There are two more hours to sundown. Chill out.”
“Oh, Dawn she’s just eager to wreak some vengeance for Xander. Or would it Anya? That’s funny, Buffy wreaking vengeance on behalf of a former vengeance demon. I can see it now, Anya going, ‘I wish…’”
“Willow!”
“Sorry, I forgot about the wishing.”
“It doesn’t matter, are you ready to go?”
“Where are you two going?”
“Dawn and I are going out for some ice cream. Do you want to go with us?”
“No, Spike is supposed to meet me here, I’ll wait.”
“Tara?”
“No sweetie, I want to look at this book Mr. Giles gave me. I want to find a better version of that spell I was trying to use the other night.”
“Hey, you’re not feeling guilty about Xander are you?”
“Not really, but I would feel better if I found a quicker version. It could be really helpful in the future.”
“Okay. Well guys Dawn and I will see you later.”
Dawn and Willow left. Tara sat quietly at the kitchen table reading while Buffy sat restlessly tapping her fingers and sighing. “Buffy, is something bothering you?”
“Maybe. I mean yes.” Buffy told Tara what she had seen and overheard.
“Oh my. Have you told anyone?”
“Of course not. Who could I tell? Willow would kill Anya and Giles would probably stake Spike. And Dawn’s just too young.”
“Have you asked them?”
“Oh my God, no.”
“Why not?”
“Right. ‘Excuse me, Anya why are screwing Spike and by the way, Xander, did you know Spike loves you?’”
“How about Spike?”
“Spike?”
“Yes. You two have a special relationship. You trust him don’t you?”
There was a long pause. Finally Buffy said, “yes.”
They sat quietly some more. Just as Buffy was about speak, there was a knocking at the door. “Oh that’s Spike, I better go.”
“Just think about it.”
“I will.”
Later, Buffy was feeling a little bit sorry for the demons, as she and Spike went after them with a ferocity that left them both breathless. As they walked she said, “You uh wanna hang out at your crypt?”
He turned away from her and said evasively, “No, I have things going on. I’ll walk you back to your house though.”
“Actually, I was planning on dropping in on Anya and Xander, you can walk me there if you want.” ‘Take that!’ she thought.
“Ah Slayer, I’m not sure that’s such a good idea, what with Xander recovering and all…”
“Or is that where you were heading?”
He stopped and tried to give her that head tilt meant to convey his sincerity. It failed miserably. “What are you talking about?”
“Oh you know what I’m talking about. I saw you with her. I heard you with her. What the hell is going on?”
He stared at her. His eyes flashed briefly and he advanced upon her until her back was against a nearby tree. “What is it you think you saw?”
“You know what I saw. I saw you” her voice dropped to a whisper, “touching her.” She looked away from him then.
“Oh you did?” His voice was in her ear. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her against him. She could feel his lips against her neck, “did you like what you saw?” he hissed. “Did you wish it was you?” Buffy could feel her heart beating in her chest, her breath coming in shallow bursts. His tongue snaked out and it felt like fire against her neck. She involuntarily felt her arms reaching around his waist, under his jacket, under his tee shirt, feeling the muscled cool skin beneath the palms of her hand. Spike groaned and began insinuating his leg between hers, his jean-covered thigh rubbing against the seam of her jeans and sending shivers and heat running through her. She tilted her head back and looked up at him. Their eyes met and his lips came down on hers. They kissed, and kissed, and kissed, and it was pretty good but nothing special.
They broke apart and stared at each other. ‘Wow!’ Buffy thought, ‘I mean he’s a good kisser and all but after that initial heat it kind of fizzled out.’ “Well, uh, that was nice, I guess.”
“Nice?! That should have been bloody fantastic!”
“Yeah, it should have been, pent up emotions and all that.”
They stood there nodding looking awkwardly at each other.
“Well if that’s all you wanted…”
“Spike, no. You don’t love me anymore do you?”
“I suppose I don’t.”
“Did you ever?”
“Oh God Buffy, yes.”
“What happened?
He shrugged his shoulders and looked away. “Did you ever have any kind of feelings for me?”
She looked down. “Yes.”
“Could you have ever loved me?”
“Maybe.”
He nodded and started to walk away.
“Wait. What’s going on with Anya? Does Xander know?”
“Buffy, it’s not really my place to tell you.”
“Who’s place is it to tell me?’
He shrugged, “I don’t really know, but it’s not my secret alone.”
With that he turned, put his hands in his pockets and walked away into the night.

Surprises
Buffy was lightly dozing in the hospital chair when Willow came in.
“Hey Buffy.”
“Hey.”
“How is he?”
“He’s sleeping and his breathing seems to be normal, but he hasn’t woken up yet. Spike and the doctor both seem to think he’ll be fine.”
“Speaking of, where is he?
“I sent him to take Anya home.”
“They seem to be pretty close lately.”
“Yeah, they do.” Buffy paused, and then asked, “Have you found out anything about those Angora demons?”
“Anhkora demons Buffy, they’re not fuzzy sweaters.”
“Angora, Anhkora. Are they poisonous or magic or anything?”
“No, they seem to be your basic bloodthirsty monster types. Most people die from blood loss and, ahem, flesh loss.”
“Ewww.”
“You said it sister.”
“Well, I’ll let you take your shift in the comfy chair then. I guess I’ll get cleaned up and return Anya’s car keys. Spike must have hotwired the car or something.” Buffy shook her head. “Oh, and Willow?”
“Hmmm?”
“For God’s sake don’t forget to call Anya the second he wakes up.”
“Don’t worry, I’m not wanting to risk Anyanka. Hey, do you want my car keys?”
“Nah, the walk will do me good.”
Buffy whistled while she walked. She could feel the stress of the evening melting away. Xander was going to be fine. She decided to go ahead and return Anya’s keys as her and Xander’s house was closer than her home on Revello Drive. She really liked the little ranch house that they had decided to buy over the summer. She kept expecting them to announce an engagement but that still hadn’t happened. She saw Xander’s car in the driveway ahead and could see Spike and Anya talking through the picture window. Anya began crying and Spike leaned forward and took her in his arms. ‘Wow,’ thought Buffy, ‘he really can be sweet when he wants to be.’ She decided to wait before interrupting. What she saw next shocked her to her core.
Anya raised her tear-stained face to Spike’s and kissed him passionately on the lips. He paused, drew back for a moment and began kissing her back. It was as if a storm was unleashed. Anya began pulling his leather jacket off his shoulders. He helped by shrugging it off. He put his face in her neck and moaned. He stood and pulled his tee shirt off quickly as she did the same. They sank to the couch and began kissing again. Spike kissed his way to Anya’s neck, pausing to suck and nibble at her jugular. Anya moaned and ran her hands down Spike’s bare back. He moved down her neck and buried his face between her breasts as he reach behind her and undid her bra. As her bra fell away he began running his thumbs around her nipples tracing the areolas. Anya moaned and pushed his head to the side. He began licking then sucking at her nipples alternately. She threw her head back and tightened her fingers in his hair. He reached out and started undoing her pants. She helped by wriggling out of them then lifted her knee between his legs. Spike moaned then sat up, unlaced his boots, and pulled off his own jeans. Spike leaned forward again kissed Anya while reaching between her legs.
“Spike,” Anya gasped, “now!”
Spike nodded, removed his hand, grabbed each of her thighs, spread her legs and with what appeared to be a practiced move, plunged quickly into her.
They both moaned loudly, not hearing Buffy’s own gasp. Unknowingly she had crept closer until she was practically at the window. She knew she should be barging in and stopping them but she was totally caught up in the scene playing out before her. Her skin was clammy and her breaths were coming in shallow bursts matching the breathing of the two lovers in front of her. Worse than that, she could feel heat and wetness pooling between her legs. As Anya reached the beginning of her climax her hands gripped the couch, Buffy’s own hands clenched at her sides.
“Argh!”
“Oh God Spike I love you!”
“I love you too Anya!”
Panting, they climaxed. Spike put his forehead on Anya’s. She briefly closed her eyes, and tearfully looked up at Spike, “I love Xander so much.”
“I know, I love him too.”
Buffy lost her balance and fell on her ass. By the time Spike and Anya covered themselves and looked out the window she was running toward Revello Drive.
“Omigod, omigod, omigod,” Buffy chanted. “Spike and Anya had sex. Spike and Anya love each other. Spike and Anya love Xander. Spike loves Xander? And…” She stopped suddenly. “Did that whole thing just turn me on?”
By the time she had reached the house Buffy was totally confused. Who could she talk to? Willow would kill Anya. Giles would kill Spike. Xander would… What would Xander do? She shook her head. She needed a shower and some sleep. She would be able to think better in the morning.

Laughter
It was laughter that started it all. It was laughter that startled Buffy out of her reverie. They had been fruitlessly researching the latest monster of the week and she had started to zone out when the sound of Anya’s laughter rang out. Buffy turned her head and saw a grinning Spike in his black leather jacket and black tee and jeans ensemble leaning over the counter to Anya whispering something into her ear with a grin.
“Jeez,” she muttered, “he looks like a 50’s hoodlum chatting up the counter girl at the soda shop.”
Xander looked up and grinned at her analogy, “Well, they were both alive during the 50’s.”
“They’re probably exchanging disembowelment tips,” she said shaking her head.
Xander only smiled fondly.
Now that she thought about it, Buffy hadn’t heard Anya laugh genuinely and unselfconsciously in a long time. She hadn’t seen Xander smile so warmly either. And she was pretty sure she hadn’t seen Spike smile so non-evilly at anyone other than Dawn. Everyone had seemed kind of down since the end of the battle with Glory. It had taken a lot of their usual verve. “Well I am tired of reading, anyone want to go patrol?”
Seven heads popped up at once and seven voices rang out simultaneously with an “I do.”
Buffy grinned, “patrol party?”
“Better than a research party,” replied Xander.
“Hey!” Giles, Willow, and Dawn exclaimed.
“Don’t get offended. Besides, you all wanted to patrol too,” said Buffy.
“One’s neck does tend to become stiff after a while; some physical exertion would be welcome,” said Giles.
“What he said,” smiled Dawn.
“Okay, we should probably split up. Spike, you go with Xander and Anya, Willow you come with me and Dawn.”
“I’ll go with Xander and Anya too,” said Tara.
“Honey,” Willow whined.
“No, your girl’s right, you two witchiepoos should be separated just in case we need some mojo,” said Spike.
“Giles?”
“I suppose I’ll accompany you, Buffy. I haven’t seen you fight with anything other than Spike for a while, I should critique your technique.”
“Eh, I’m standing right here.”
“Stop it you two. Cell phones on vibrate?”
“Check.”
“Let’s go.”
Later in Sunnydale’s main cemetery, Buffy and Giles had staked a couple of vampires each and were deciding to fetch the other crew and call it a night when they heard a scream from the other side of the cemetery. “Spike!”
“That was Anya,” said Giles.
They all started running in the direction of the noise. Buffy got there just in time to see Spike pick up Xander and run. “Anya! What happened? Where is Spike going with Xander?”
“He’s taking him to Sunnydale General,” sobbed Anya. “Oh God, there’s so much blood…”
“We figured it would be fastest,” babbled Tara. “I mean I can’t teleport yet and Anya can’t do it anymore and Oh God Buffy it was awful.”
“I have to go to him now!”
“Anya calm down and let Tara tell us what happened,” ordered Giles.
“I won’t calm down, I have to go now, you can stay here and figure it out all you want. I need to see if Xander’s okay. You didn’t see…”
“It’s okay Giles, I’ll take her to the hospital. You get everyone home and start figuring out what got him and if there’s anything special we need to know. I’ll call as soon as we know something.”
During the ride to the hospital, Buffy wished she were the comforting type. Out the corner of her eye she watched Anya quietly sobbing in the passenger’s seat. “Anya? Do you feel okay enough to tell me what happened?”
Anya sniffled and wiped away some tears with the back of her hand. “Stupid Xander. Spike was fine, but he had to jump in. Damn it! Doesn’t he know how fragile humans are?”
“Okay, Spike was fighting a…what?”
“An Ahnkorak demon.”
“Uh, huh. And…?”
“Tara was chanting some kind of stasis spell to disable it and stupid Xander jumped in with a broadsword to quote ‘back Spike up’. Stupid, stupid, stupid!” Her voice rose to a shriek, “can’t you drive any faster?”
“Calm down, we’re almost there. I think it was very brave.”
“Of course it was brave, that’s what’s so stupid. He’s only a human and I’d die if I lost him.”
“Don’t worry, he’ll be okay.”
“You can’t know that.”
“No I can’t.”
“You’re not very good at this.”
“No I’m not.” ‘Good,’ Buffy thought, ‘Blunt Anya is back, that means she’s calming down.’ “Look, we’re here.”
Anya jumped out of the car and ran inside before Buffy had a chance to come to a complete stop. “I guess I’ll meet you inside” Buffy said to the air where Anya had been. Despite her seeming calm, Buffy was worried about Xander, so she found a parking space and jogged the apparent mile to the hospital.
By the time she had found the information desk, got Xander’s room number, and walked down the hall, she could hear Anya and Spike whispering in a heated debate.
“Anyanka, I told you, he’s going to be fine.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes” he hissed.
“But if he wasn’t you’d do it right?”
“But he’s going to be fine, so I don’t want to talk about it.”
“Spike, if it ever came down to it, promise me you’d do it.”
“This is not a discussion I want to have right now, besides it is not my decision to make, nor yours.”
“Spike, I can’t lose him. We can’t lose him.”
“He wouldn’t be the same.”
“We can fix that.”
“Anya, we will talk about this later. All of us. For now, be content with the fact that he’s going to be okay.”
“I’m not letting this go.”
“Letting go of what?” Buffy interjected.
“Nothing, Slayer, Demon Girl here is worrying needlessly. The Doughboy is going to be fine. He’s lost some blood is all.”
“Are you sure?”
“Trust me on this one Slayer. Vampire, remember? I do have some experience in this field.”
“Touché.”
“Would you two stop flirting? We have a sick man here.”
Buffy and Spike turned and stared at Anya. She looked miserable and bloody. Buffy’s irritation melted away. “Spike will you take Anya home and let her get cleaned up and get some rest? Willow’s on the way, I’ll hold down the fort until then and check up on the research. If he wakes up before you both return Willow will call, okay?”
Anya looked longingly at Xander’s still form and nodded her assent. Spike grasped her elbow and steered her out the door. Buffy once again wondered about their relationship. He seemed to be the only one besides Xander that really got along with Anya.

Laughter
It was laughter that started it all. It was laughter that startled Buffy out of her reverie. They had been fruitlessly researching the latest monster of the week and she had started to zone out when the sound of Anya’s laughter rang out. Buffy turned her head and saw a grinning Spike in his black leather jacket and black tee and jeans ensemble leaning over the counter to Anya whispering something into her ear with a grin.
“Jeez,” she muttered, “he looks like a 50’s hoodlum chatting up the counter girl at the soda shop.”
Xander looked up and grinned at her analogy, “Well, they were both alive during the 50’s.”
“They’re probably exchanging disembowelment tips,” she said shaking her head.
Xander only smiled fondly.
Now that she thought about it, Buffy hadn’t heard Anya laugh genuinely and unselfconsciously in a long time. She hadn’t seen Xander smile so warmly either. And she was pretty sure she hadn’t seen Spike smile so non-evilly at anyone other than Dawn. Everyone had seemed kind of down since the end of the battle with Glory.

SUMMARY: Death is not always her gift
SPOILERS: None

Prologue: From The Gift
Shot of the portal continuing to do its destruction.
Cut to above. Buffy turns back to Dawn as Dawn continues staring at the portal.
Dawn (tearful): I'm sorry.
Buffy: It doesn't matter.
Dawn tries to run past Buffy but Buffy grabs her.
Buffy: What are you doing?
Dawn: I have to jump. The energy.
Buffy: It'll kill you.
Dawn: (softly) I know. (Buffy staring at her) Buffy, I know about the ritual. I have to stop it.
Buffy: No.
The tower shakes underneath them, making them both stumble.
Dawn: I have to. Look at what's happening.
More lightning crackles, even larger than before. Buffy looks up. A huge dragon flies out of the portal and buzzes the tower, flying away as they watch.
Dawn: Buffy, you have to let me go. Blood starts it, and until the blood stops flowing, it'll never stop.
Buffy stares at Dawn in anguish.
Dawn (tearfully): You know you have to let me. It has to have the blood.
Buffy gets a realization look on her face.
Flash to Spike earlier in the episode.
Spike: Cause it's always got to be blood.
Flash to Buffy and Dawn in the hospital at the end of Blood Ties. Buffy putting her hand to her wound, then pressing it against Dawn's bloody hand. Buffy voiceover: It's Summers' blood. It's just like mine.
Flash to Buffy earlier in this episode.
Buffy: She's me. The monks made her out of me.
Flash to Buffy beside the fire in Intervention.
First Slayer: Death is your gift.
Buffy: Death...
Flash back to the present. Close shot on Buffy's face.
First Slayer voiceover: ...is your gift.
Buffy frowns. Turns around slowly.
Shot of the platform extending into the air. In the distance, holes seem to be opening in the sky. The sky is growing lighter as the sun tries to rise.
Buffy looks peaceful. She turns back to Dawn, who stares wide-eyed.
Dawn: Buffy ... no!
Buffy: Dawnie, I have to.
Dawn: No!
Buffy: Listen to me. Please, there's not a lot of time, listen.
The camera pulls out on the two of them. Buffy holds Dawn by the upper arms and continues talking to her: Dawn, listen to me. Listen. I love you. I will *always* love you. But this is the work that I have to do. Tell Giles ... tell Giles I figured it out. And, and I'm okay. And give my love to my friends.
You have to take care of them now. You have to take care of each other.
You have to be strong. Dawn, the hardest thing in this world ... is to live in it.
Be brave. Live. For me.
Dawn begins to cry. Lightning continues to crackle behind them.
Cut back to close shot of Buffy. She strokes the side of Dawn's face, then kisses her on the cheek. Dawn continues to cry.
Buffy turns. In slow-motion, she runs down the platform as Dawn stays there crying.
Buffy swan-dives off the end of the platform and into the portal.
Dawn watches, sobbing.
Below Anya looks up and sees the beginning of Buffy’s dive, “Spike!”
Spike looks up and despite his pain rises and runs, leaps with supernatural speed and catches Buffy in his arms. They collapse to the ground.
