Crimson Moon
by GoldenBuffy
Chapter 1
Angelus’ cock pounded into Drusilla with such force
that the bed moaned in protest.
Drusilla's long, sharp nails took no mercy on him as she clamped down and,
scratched his back, drawing deep crimson
streaks that made him howl with
pleasure. The smell of blood in the air urged their demons forward
as they both sought their release. They clawed at each other
relentlessly; their cool flesh coming together in a passionate symphony.
It was violent, and merciless.
Angelus’ demon rejoiced in it., Ooh
how he had miss such carnal pleasures. He
had even more satisfaction knowing that the
little bitch, Buffy, would pay for making him even think about loving
her.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Spike wheeled around his room trying to block out the horrid noise of his
dark princess and his grand-sire going at it for the seventh time that
night.
“Damn that bloody bitch and her organ throwing self.,"
he cursed as he threw the book in his
lap across the room. Oh, he would show all of them soon. He was
slowly regaining the use of his legs, and once he could walk,
he planned on ripping off one of Angelus' arms and beating him silly
with it. He’d knock Dru around a bit for leaving him for that ponce.
And then there was
the Slayer., Oh, how she would
pay... Spike’s mouth watered just from the
thought. He could practically taste her blood in his mouth, smell her fear.
Oh yeah, getting out of this chair and getting to full strength was well
worth it.
Drusilla walked through the bedroom door while Spike was still in deep
thought. He turned around to face her and was
overwhelmed by the musky scent
of his grand-sire.
“You could have showered first, Dru,” Spike growled, attempting to
put some distance between them.
Drusilla danced over to him and took his face in her hands.
“My Spike has been such a good boy, hasn’t he? But he must learn to share
his toys.” She smiled, her fingers running
lightly down his nose. The female vampire leaned down to
place a chaste kiss on the spot she had just caressed.
“But don’t worry, my William. I have
a gift for you. I shall bring it soon. Miss Edith says you’ll be quite
pleased.” She turned and left the room.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Kick, punch, kick. Buffy sent them in succession to her opponent. The
vampire’s head snapped back from the forced of the Slayer’s fist before
doubling over to clutch his stomach. The
next kick connected with his head, sending him flying back into a tombstone.
The stone cracked as the vampire bounced
off. Before the unfortunate vampire could
regain his footing, Buffy pounced. With
practiced ease, she sent a stake through his heart and watched as he
vanished in a cloud of dust.
Buffy turned around when she heard the 'eep' from Willow, finding her
cornered by two vamps. One had obviously knocked her holy water
super-soaker gun out of her hands and Willow was
trying her best to stay alive by thrusting
a cross in their faces. Her hands
were almost shaking too much to perform the
task.
“Hey!” Buffy called out as she approached
the trio. The two vamps whipped around to
face her. “Didn’t (punch) your (punch) mother (kick) tell (punch) you not
(punch) to play with your (kick) food? (Stake).” Buffy swatted at the
vampire dust that flittered around her, she stuffed the stake back in to her
pants and walked over to her friend.
“You ok, Wills?” Buffy asked, placing her
hands on her hips.
Willow response was a
widening of her
expressive eyes; her mouth opening
and closing like a fish out of water and
gasping for its last breath. Buffy was so
caught up in her concern that she failed to
notice the powerful vampire approaching her.
Cursing her inattentiveness, Buffy quickly
spun around and came face to face with Drusilla. There was
a wicked and sinister smile gracing the vampire's lips as she quickly
grabbed Buffy by the throat, locking her in an icy cold grip. Using the
element of surprise to her full advantage, Drusilla was able to
toss Buffy like a rag doll across the graveyard,
where she landed with a sickening
thud next to a mausoleum.
Willow stood there, unsure of the best course of action.
Drusilla was big with the scary - and
with the whole tossing her best friend like a rag doll? No, her feet didn't
seem to want to come off the ground, keeping her firmly rooted in place.
Willow watched helplessly as the
vampiress seemed to move with an eerie grace, almost as if she were gliding,
along the ground towards her fallen friend.
“BUFFY!” Willow shouted to get her friend’s
attention.
Buffy looked up to see a pale hand, with blood red nails, reach for her. She
tried to move out of reach,
but was quickly pinned again. Drusilla locked eyes with her nemesis.
Buffy couldn’t help but look into those dark orbs that passed as eyes. The
vampire began to sway like a willow tree
blowing in a slight summer breeze, and more terrifying, Buffy found
herself swaying, as well. Fully entranced, Buffy's
head was filled with Dru’s voice.
“Sleep”
And all went dark.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Drusilla knew Angelus was out hunting when she returned and headed straight
for Spike’s room. Pushing open his door, she walked over to his bed and laid
her gift of the slayer out before him. Spike watched her for a silent moment
before wheeling over to the bed.
Drusilla’s eyes danced with merriment, like a child on Christmas morning.
“Look, my prince, I have brought you your gift.”
Spike looked at her skeptically. “Did Angelus put you up to this?”
“No, daddy doesn’t know. I wanted to get you something special. You need
your strength to get better,” she said with a pout.
“I miss my William, and I want him back.” Her eyes danced at her words and
she waited for his acceptance of her gift.
Spike looked at his sire before turning his eyes
back at the slayer lying on the bed, yet didn't move. Drusilla was
starting to get impatient. She leaned forward and started to coo little
nothings in his ear.
“Mummy wants to play with her Spike,” Drusilla whispered,
placing her hand over Spike’s crotch and caressed
him, causing him to hiss with sudden
pleasure. She ran her finger down his
cheek before slicing it open and drawing blood with her sharpened nail.
Leaning over, Drusilla flicked her tongue over the wound, and
Spike’s cock jumped to attention from her actions. A purely feminine
smirk graced her lips as her hand moved to unzip him,
effectively releasing his erection into her waiting hands.
She took him into her mouth, and with one long pull
back up, she sucked her cheeks in, causing a moan to escape Spike’s lips as
he closed his eyes tightly. She stopped at
the head of his cock. “Oh, how I have
missed you,” Drusilla murmured,
placing a kiss upon the thick tip before
biting down slightly.
Releasing Spike's engorged member, Drusilla drew away. “But no
playing until you have finished your supper,” she
chided her childe teasingly before
grabbing a fist full of Buffy’s golden locks
and pulling her towards Spike.
“Drink, my love. She shall heal you.” She presented Buffy’s neck to Spike.
He grunted in acceptance as his face shifted from his human guise to
that of the demon. He leaned forward and worried her jugular vein with his
mouth before sinking his fangs in.
“Such a good boy,” Drusilla cooed into his ear, petting his head softly.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
A/N ok let me know what you think; if I get good reviews I’ll continue the
story.
Chapter 4
Xander and Willow found themselves at Giles’ front door that Friday morning. Buffy still hadn’t shown and the Watcher/librarian wasn’t answering his phone.
“Open up G-man!” Xander yelled through the closed door pounding his fist on it. Willow worried her bottom lip, hugged her arms around herself trying to stifle the dread that was slowly eating at her stomach.
They heard muffled feet shuffling across the floor behind the closed door, and locks being undone. Opening the door they were faced by a being greeted to a very tired, hung over and disheveled Watcher glaring at them.
Giles blinked to clear the cobwebs from his lethargic brain while looking at the pair. He stepped aside, ushering them in with a look of annoyance scowled across his features.
“Do come in here at once, before you wake up the whole bloody complex!”, he barked, stepping aside to let the teens pass.
“Giles have you been drinking? You and drinking is so not good, did something happen? Oh God did something happen to Buffy? Where is Buffy?” Willow question frantically looking around the flat for any sign of her friend.
Giles sighed and motioned for the two to have a seat, walking over to the sofa and plopping down, they awaited the news of the slayer.
“Give me a few moments to pull myself together. I will be back down in a few.” With that, Giles slowly climbed the stairs to his bedroom to shower and dress before confronting the two scoobies.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Joyce hadn’t slept a wink in that past forty eight hours, her back hurt and her head throbbed with over whelming pain, from worrying over her daughter. So many scenarios played over and over in Joyce’s head, from Buffy running off with some ruthless gang, to Angel taking her to some God-forsaken country to have his perverse way with her.
umping up she started to pace her daughter’s bedroom trying to think where could she be, she could be hurt or worse. Then it came to her, Mr. Giles, he should have some clue to the whereabouts of her daughter. Joyce charged out of Buffy’s bedroom for a quick shower and change of clothes before heading to Rupert’s house.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Angelus clasped his hands around the bespectacled vampire’s neck as he gritting his teeth. The brunette vampire demanded answers, and he wanted then now.
“Now tell me how do I get that damned sword out of that piece of rock.”
Dalton fumbled trying to squirm out of the psychotic vampire’s embrace.
“I-I-I don’t understand what went wrong Master Angelus.”
Angelus tossed him aside into a bookcase across the room, storming back into the main hall of the mansion. Glancing around at his minions he rolled his eyes in disgusted, not like he expected them to compare to his childe or God-forbid his grand-childe, but he expected something from them, at least from those who were older.
Even building an army of the un-dead, Angelus could afford to be picky. He was granting them status being Aurelian and all.
Drusilla came up behind her sire placing her arms around his abdomen “Daddy is swimming with the fishies.”
“No Dru I’m fine. Just planning my next go that’s all.”
Sniffing the air Angelus arched his brow “Where is that menace? He happened to roll into direct sunlight?”
Drusilla twirled around Angelus, her red and white-laced dress flaring under her like an upside down rose blooming.
“Tsk, tsk, it’s not nice to talk such ways about my William.”
“Yeah… well what ever. Where ever he is, he better stay out of my way.” He pushed pasted Drusilla knocking her into a wall, blazing a trail to his bedroom, dusting any sorry minion who crossed his path in the process. Needing his rest for tonight. Angelus would try to raise Acathla once again. A twisted smile touched his lips, as he thought about the human he needed to attend too.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Giles emerged from his bedroom, descending the stairs. Xander was flipping through television stations trying to find something to watch other than morning talk shows and dreary news. Willow was exiting the kitchen carrying a tray with a teakettle, three cups and saucers, a bowl of sugar and some cream.
Giles greeted the redhead with a tight lipped smile and a nod of the head as she approached him. Willow returned the smile then set the tray down on the coffee table. Xander flicked off the TV and tossed the remote onto the vacant cushion set next to him.
Willow sat down in front of the tray and busied herself with the task at hand as Giles took the chair to her left. Xander ran his hands down the leg of his jeans then clapped them together.
“So G-man care to fill us in on the news?”
“Yes, well, I suppose there’s no easy way of saying this.” Giles sighed accepting the offered cup of tea from Willow’s extended hand.
“Did I add enough sugar? I added to much didn’t I, or I didn’t steep it long enough?” Willow added watching the older man’s face.
“No it’s quite alright Willow dear. I’m just gathering my thoughts that’s all.”
The three sat in silence; the only noise was the clattering sound of the cups landing on their respective saucers. Deep in thought, Giles clearing his throat interrupted them.
“I guess I should get on with it then. I talked to Travers like I intended to. There where words exchanged. (" Giles paused for moment before continuing. ") He let on that he knew about Buffy and Drusilla, their encounter in the cemetery and Buffy’s abduction. The council also knew about Buffy’s death at the hands of the Master. And that there have been Watchers actually watching us since that time. They witnessed Buffy’s encounter with Drusilla.”
Giles spoke the words in disgust. Wishing what he had to say next was far from the truth, that he didn’t have to say the words at all. He removed his glasses and placed them in his lap after leaning forward and placing his cup of tea on the coffee table.
“It has been confirmed that another Slayer has been called.” His stomach sank to his feet.
Willow and Xander grew impossibly quite, which was surprising from the young man.
“Yeah that makes sense. I mean the whole new Slayer being called.” Willow finally added after finding her voice.
“I mean Kendra died. So you know new slayer, that doesn’t mean anything happened to Buffy.”
Giles shook his head even though he wanted to agree with her logic.
“It’s safe to assume that Buffy is gone. If she indeed had managed to escape from…from that monster then she would have returned home. I…” He was interrupted mid sentence when there was a knock at the door.
The three glanced at each other; deep down a muster of hope was ignited. Giles stood up and walked to the door. Opening it he was greeted to the grim face of Joyce Summers. She was looking worse for ware, her hair was pulled back into a tiny ponytail, no make-up, and she had tossed on an old pair of sweat pants and a black t-shirt.
Taking in her appearance, the pit in Giles’ stomach seemed to drop deeper when the forlorn woman standing at his doorstep confirmed all his suspicions.
“Please do come in.” He gestured extending his hand into the living room.
Joyce smiled a bit then entered his flat being greeted by the two teens still sitting down.
“Willow, Xander, what are you doing here? Why aren’t you at school?”
Willow only flashed a brief tight lipped smile then looked down at her inter woven fingers fidgeting in her lap. Xander was leaning forward on his parted legs resting his elbows in the process, his face taking on a pale tone.
“Please sit down Mrs. Summers,” begged the watcher.
Joyce was shocked at everyone’s demeanor and her guard went on alert. Taking in the melancholy mood she walked in upon something was not right, and that sinking feeling returned to her stomach. Something wasn’t right with Buffy.
“Where’s Buffy, have you seen her? She didn’t come home the other night and I was hoping maybe she called you or contacted you somehow.”
Giles looked at the woman standing before him as he ran his hand across his forehead trying to decide how to tell her the news.
With a sigh he began, “In every generation, there is a Chosen One. She alone will stand against the vampires, the demons, and the forces of darkness. She is the Slayer….”
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Joyce sat shell-shocked taking in the news that was just expressed to her. She had thought her daughter to be crazy when Buffy first told her about demons, vampires and other things, informing her that she was some kind of demon, no, a Vampire Slayer. Joyce and Hank even had Buffy committed for a brief time until she showed signs of improvement.
But now Giles was reiterating all that her daughter had told her, not to mention that she had found Buffy's diary, and for just some clue decided to read it. She had been starting to suspect that Buffy was falling back into her delusions given the vividness of her diary entries, but it all flew out the window as reality set in as Mr. Giles' words took hold.
She swatted at a tear that trickled down her cheek and blinked her eyes to hold back the rest that threaten to spill over.
“So this thing took Buffy?” she asked hesitantly
“Yes Joyce,” Giles said placing his hand over hers. And I suspect that Buffy will not return to us. As sad as it seems, Buffy was the slayer and her life wasn’t expected to last so long.”
Joyce was enraged and jumped from her seat. How could this man just sit here and speak about her daughter as if she was some office equipment easily replaced once broken. Her eyes fixed on the Watcher still in his sitting position.
“And you just send my baby out there every night, placing her in harms way knowing that she could die, and you do nothing to stop it! A grown man who sends a seventeen year out to fight monsters!”
“It was her calling. There was nothing I could do. You have to understand that. She was the Chosen One.”
Joyce was livid, she wanted to send his face through the next available wall but she knew that would be uncalled for. A tight balled formed in her stomach as Joyce fought to repress her tears. It was all to much in such a limited amount of time.
“You have no idea what it’s like to lose your daughter, your baby,” she spat at him.
“No, I don’t. But I loved Buffy like she was my own.”
Joyce turned to head from the door glancing back over her shoulder.
“Maybe so, but she wasn’t your flesh and blood,” said Joyce sadly
With that she nodded her good byes to the teens and left the quiet apartment to the echoing sound of the door being slammed shut.
Xander clapped his hands together sliding them back and forth.
“Well that went… well.”
Willow rolled her eyes, picking up the remote control she threw it at his head.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
“Don’t wait up for me.” Angelus called back to his childe as she watched him exit the mansion’s front doors. The sun had just set and the last redness started to disappear from the sky. The stars began to make their approach for the night and the moon was shinning brightly at full bloom.
Angelus puffed out his chest and basked in the moment, he entertained the thoughts of running into the Slayer and finally getting some payback, but not too much since he still had plans of a long and drawn out torture session for her before he drained her dry.
He soon found himself at his intended destination, sniffing the air. His prey was there for the taking. He opened the door and slipped inside. “God I love public places, don’t need an invitation.”
He quickly approached his prey spotting the form huddled over the computer typing away in deep concentration, eyes tiny slits and sporting brows that were creased together.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Willow blinked at the screen again then slumped back into her chair, what was the use? Buffy was dead. It seemed as if Willow’s whole world had crashed down in front of her and there wasn’t any way she could stop it. Tears formed in her eyes and she fought to hold them back. If only she had done something more than yell to Buffy. If she had tried maybe she would have been able to levitate Drusilla, or made her release Buffy.
A tear slid down her cheek, she lifted her hand to remove it when a cold finger touched her face, paralyzing her.
“Now, now Willow what ever could be the matter.” Angelus chuckled in her ear his cold breath tickling her neck, as his menacing voice sent shivers of fear straight through her.
She tried to get up and run but the vampire grabbed her around the waist as she stood up. Kicking the computer lab chair aside, Angelus pulled Willow’s back flush against his torso, rubbing his nose in her hair inhaling her scent of strawberries and fear, rubbing his erection into the small of her back.
Angelus could hardly contain himself; it had been far to long, tormenting the innocent. The pleasure shot straight to his groin making his cock painfully hard. His mind wandered for a moment as Angelus pictured himself tossing the small lithe body before him onto the computer table, ripping away her light pink jeans, and tearing away her cotton panties as he plowed into her tight passage.
(In his mind's eye he pictured ripping past her maidenhead, filling the air with the thick scent of her blood, causing her to cry out at the violation of her body and finally sinking his fangs into her lush neck. But it wasn't nearly as graphic compared to what he did to that gypsy bitch)
“Oh no Willow can’t leave you unattended now can we. Wouldn’t want you to find away to give me back my pesky ol’ soul now would we?”
Willow’s eyes grew wide and she cursed herself for being out after dark in a building without a barrier. She knew better. She swallowed hard when she felt his cold tongue run across her neck and rest on her jugular, then all went black.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Angelus stood in front of the statue, taking a deep unneeded breath he placed his hands on the sword, hesitating he removed them. Pacing for a moment, Angelus placed his hands on said sword once again and screamed in frustration.
“Let’s try this again,” he said to the empty room.
Slowly pulling, the metal groaned out in protest as it started to slide from its resting place. A sadistic smile slipped across Angelus’ lips as the tip of the sword appeared. Casting the weapon to his side he moved back from the stone as it began to tremble. The statue seemed to come alive as its mouth opened and a swirling vortex of gold, crimson and green displayed in front of his eyes.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Buffy slowly started coming to but refused to open her eyes, her body felt as if it had been run over by a Mac truck. She lay there not moving, still as death as the door to the bedroom opened. Buffy sniffed the air and quickly rose to a sitting position, golden eyes locked on their target, ivory fangs gleamed in the light from the fireplace as her lips snarled back into a horrifying sight.
Sire.” Buffy uttered the word breathlessly then cocked her head to the side as if seeing Spike truly for the first time, then quickly she lowered her gaze out of submission and respect. How she knew he was her sire she had no idea, how she knew to show him respect rather than to enrage him, she again had no idea. All Buffy knew was her body screamed out telling her Spike was her sire, and she his childe, she belonged to him, and it felt… right.
Spike stood in the doorway unable to move as he gazed upon his newly risen childe. She was absolutely breathtaking, not only because she was his first childe, not just some useless minion, but also because she was stunning sitting there in full game face, her hair tossed around her head like a golden halo of fire, and her pale yet still tan skin glistened from the light from the fireplace.
Cocking his head, Spike took Buffy’s vampire form in for the first time. Desire raged through him as he gnashed his teeth, squeezing his eyes closed to regain control. Yes he wanted his childe, but not yet. There was too much to teach her. There was Angelus to worry about. Angelus wouldn’t let him within fifty feet of Dru for almost three months knowing that the sire/childe bond wouldn’t be as strong between them.
When Spike had been a fledge, Angelus hadn't let him with in fifty feet of Dru for almost three months knowing that the Sire/Childe bond would be weakened. Spike didn’t want to repeat that with his childe but there were much more important things at risk at the moment.
Spike stalked over to the bed with a fluid grace like the predator he was, allowing Buffy to follow his every move. Sitting upon the bed Spike reached his hand out to stroke Buffy’s golden locks. Buffy leaned into his hand, nuzzling his neck out of respect. Spike brought his childe to his neck, tilting it in invitation. Hunger was her driving factor; straddling Spike’s hips Buffy ducked her head. Slowly licking his jugular vein where his artery would have been, with a low growl she sunk her fang in.
The warm borrowed blood slid down Buffy’s throat as she greedily swallowed more. Eyes rolling back Spike hardened with each pull she took. Taking an unneeded breath he gripped the tattered sheets on the bed with one hand while the other dug into Buffy’s hip, as she ground down on his rapidly growing erection. Spike allowed Buffy to take more than she needed, but he wanted her strong, stronger than the average childe.
A low grunt resonated deep within his chest and Buffy quickly extracted her fangs, instinctively lapping at her puncture wounds closing them. Buffy’s bottom lip jetted out in a small pout, still desiring more of her sire’s blood, it was comforting, and it felt like home.
“Look at the lip,” Spike said before worrying it between his teeth then sucking on the soft pink flesh lightly. A small shiver of pleasure ran down Buffy’s spine as she timidly darted her tongue to trace Spike’s upper lip. Letting her bottom lip go Spike crushed his mouth against hers.
Blood and desire hung in the air giving way for Spike’s demon to gain control, rejoicing at having such an obedient childe, one to teach and mold. One so eager to please her sire. And for that she must be rewarded. Roughly pushing Buffy back onto the bed Spike ducked his head attacking her lips once again, tongues and fangs collided, scraping and biting in desperation to get closer to each other.
Spike wasted no time divesting Buffy of her clothing tearing away her dress, then ripping her black-laced bra and thong, tossing them to the ground. Not to be out done Buffy made quick work of unfastening Spike’s jeans and pushing them down his legs. Spike pushed up to unlace his boots and remove the jeans the rest of the way, pulling his shirt off before returning to the bed.
Sparing a moment to cast a glance over the nude lithe body laid before him Spike grunted his approval, he would have time later to explore and play, but now he just needed to be inside of her. Pushing Buffy’s legs open Spike positioned himself at her opening as she locked her legs around his lean waist. With a twist of the hips Spike surged deep within her welcoming depths. The room echoed with their cries of pleasure as he started to pump inside her.
Flesh smacked on flesh, nails scraping and clawing, as they moved together building towards their peak. Spike lowered his head catching one of Buffy’s erect nipples in his mouth, flicking his tongue over it. Buffy moaned her approval as she arched her back into his mouth giving him further access. Taking the pebble sized peak into his mouth Spike bit down causing blood to come forth. Buffy arched her head back, screaming as she came, her climax ripped throughout her body.
Buffy sank her fangs into Spike’s neck pulling on the red liquid. The sensation was pure bliss as Spike’s hips thrust harder and faster until he roared his climax spilling his seed into her waiting depths, as he bit into her neck claiming his siring marks once more.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Drusilla twirled a blonde lock around her finger as she let her lips dance over the supple flesh.
“Such a good kitty, you like it when Mommy plays with you. Sugar and spice and everything nice.” She purred looking into the girl’s brown pools that passed for eyes. Dipping her head to the girl’s neck she sunk her fangs in, taking a long pull retracting them leaving the wound to ooze. One slender pale digit danced along the opening to the blonde’s sex as she slid it inside the warm depth, scratching then rubbing the walls as it contracted against her ministrations.
“P-please do-don’t hurt me.” The blonde whimpered out with slight moans of pain, pleasure and fear mixed as one.
“Now, now my pet.” Drusilla patted her on the head. “I won’t hurt you, Daddy will like to play first. Then you must play nice with Miss Edith.”
Cocking her head to the side, she could feel her sire calling for her.
“Come Daddy is ready for you.”
Chapter 6
The rays of sun filtered into the room dancing upon her motionless face,
as Tara slowly awoke. Sitting up she stretched her muscles, the wicca’s
neck was still tender from Drusilla’s bite, but other than that she was
fine. A light tap was heard at the door drawing her from her musing.
Crossing the distance from the bed to the door Tara opened it.
“Good morning, Tara. I take it you slept well?” Giles greeted her. She
nodded her head in agreement, quickly accompanied it with a shy smile.
Reading the Watcher’s aura she knew she had made the right choice in
trusting him.
“Well come out when you’re ready. I’m making breakfast and I would love
the company.”
Giles uttered leaving the young girl to her morning devices.
~*~*~*~*~
Joyce stood in her daughter’s bedroom, gazing at the still made bed. She
saw a room that would no longer hold her daughter, carry her laughter,
her sorrow, or a bed that would no longer be warmed by her body. The
older woman gasped trying hard to stifle a sob that ripped past her
throat. This just wasn’t right; that something so cruel and twisted
could come and snatch her daughter away. But it had, in the form of the
very thing she was chosen to fight against, and to protect mankind from.
Mankind who knew nothing of the dangers that lurked in the shadows.
Joyce walked further into the room sitting on the edge of the bed. She
scooped up Buffy’s Mr. Gordo, bringing the stuffed pig to her nose. He
smelled of vanilla, of Buffy. Her daughter. Her baby. Oh god! she was
gone. Gone forever, leaving a raw, gapping wound that would not mend
over time. Joyce didn’t want it to heal, she wanted her daughter back.
But she resigned herself to the fact that Buffy would not be coming
home, would not be coming back to her; they might not even find a body
to lay to rest.
Swatting at her tears Joyce was startled by the doorbell ringing. Rising
she ran a hand over her hair and face, then headed to the door.
~*~*~*~*~
“Good afternoon Joyce.” Giles greeted the tired, grief stricken woman.
“Good afternoon Rupert. Please come in,” she said stepping aside so the
Watcher could enter followed by a young blonde girl.
“Please join me in the kitchen. I was about to have some coffee.”
The trio walked towards the back and entered the kitchen. Joyce busied
herself with making the coffee. She turned to retrieve the mugs from the
cabinet, filling them with the hot brown liquid. Placing them on the
table in front of her guests she went back to the counter to get some
cookies. The kitchen door opened revealing Xander, Cordelia and Oz.
Giles wrinkled his brow noting the lack of a certain redhead. “Where is
Willow?”
The three turned to each other with grim faces; Cordelia dropped her
head in her hands as she slid into a chair for support.
“See, that’s the thing. I called once more after I got home last night,
and her mom said she hasn’t returned. Something has happened to Wills,
Giles.” Xander blurted out.
Removing his glasses Giles wiped his face with his hand, then vigorously
rubbed his glasses. Joyce joined the group at her kitchen table; taking
a breath she turned to the other adult in the room.
“How many more must we lose Rupert? How do we stop these… these
monsters?”
The Watcher paused a moment, he was in awe of this woman, Joyce Summers.
Even now through her grief at untimely demise of Buffy, she was thinking
about the safety of others, wanting nothing but ridding the world of the
creatures who stole her child, her baby. It only added to the admiration
and respect that Rupert had for her. He could see where Buffy got her
strong will and strength of character from.
“We don’t, I’m afraid. Well, not until the next slayer arrives, which
should be within the next few days.”
Silence ensued for long moments; the occasional sip of coffee was heard
or swallowing of cookies.
“A-a-a Tara, I take it you are familiar with the dis-invite spell.”
“Y-y-yes I-I-I-I am. M-M-M-My mom taught m-m-m-me years ago.” Tara’s
stutter worsened when she was truly nervous.
“Good, lets get started shall we?” Giles rose to his feet to fetch the
ingredients he needed from his car.
~*~*~*~*~
Buffy sat up in the bed starring at the dark heavy curtains that graced
the large window in her room. The sun had not yet set; she had at least
20 minutes left. Sighing she stretched wondering what Spike was up to.
Even though she’d only been un-dead for almost a day her body ached when
he wasn’t around. A small pout tugged at her lips as she headed for the
bathroom to bathe.
~*~*~*~*~
Spike awoke to tangled limbs around his body, looking over he was
greeted to Drusilla’s sleeping face. He reached a hand out to trace over
her brow, her human guise was so peaceful, innocent looking. She was at
peace from her insanity in sleep. Laying there Spike tucked his hands
behind his head. He didn’t expect to end up in his sire’s bed. Even
though they were not mated Spike loved his wicked plum as if she was his
mate. He had tried on several occasions to claim her, but Drusilla would
laugh telling him that he was a naughty puppy trying to take what wasn’t
his.
And one would think after a hundred years of faithfulness, caring for
his insane sire’s every need she would return the favor, but she hadn’t.
As soon as Angelus reared his overly poofed head; his dark princess was
back fucking his brains out, as if he never left either one of them. He
had headed to Angules’ room to have words with him; he was through with
being the lackey, the little nurse-maid for his dark princess.
He was going to set the record straight; a lot had changed since Angelus
was cursed with his bloody soul. Spike had become a Master in his own
right, and he wanted to be treated with the respect it commanded, he was
going to pound in the great foreheaded one’s skull. Dru had intercepted
him, she was bored and wanted some attention. Her precious Daddy was
occupied with his whore of a sire. And Spike being the ever-loving
childe that he was couldn’t resist seeing his wicked plum hurting.
The part of him that was still William was pissed, how dare she treat
him as if he were dispensable, showering crumbs upon him when Angelus
wasn’t paying her any mind. But he did start this, when he was a
fledgling Drusilla would do it all the time, run to him, shower
affection and attention upon him to rifle the leather clad dufus. And
William was thrilled to have the attention doing all that he could to
prolong it. But Spike couldn’t ignore his demon either, it was thrilled
that his sire wanted to be with him again.
Buffy’s loneliness washed over him jolting him from his thoughts.
Getting out of bed he quickly pulled his black worn jeans over his hips
and headed out the bedroom door. Drusilla turned on her side watching
her childe’s retreating form with a smile.
“William is running to his baby Miss Edith, He is so kind. Must pay baby
a visit I must.”
~*~*~*~*~
Buffy stepped out of the shower wrapping the lush white towel around her
wet head. Walking over to the sink she instinctively moved a hand over
the mirror, to remove the fog that built on it from the steam of the hot
water. She gasped at the lack of reflection that greeted her. ‘Stupid
vampires with their non reflection casting selves.’ She grumbled walking
back into her room.
Spike’s eyes danced over Buffy’s nude form, a bloke could get used to
this. Buffy instantly perked up to the presence of her sire. Slowly
stalking over to him she rested an inch away from his embrace, her
sensitive nose picking up the lingering scent of Drusilla. Buffy
couldn’t help the small growl that came from her throat or the jealousy
that oozed from her voice, as her eyes flickered gold for a brief
moment.
“Have fun talking to Angel?”
“’S not what it looks like pet. Not that I need to be explaining
anything to you. But Dru is my sire, she can do with me as she wills.”
Buffy turned to face the fireplace; she couldn’t look at him at that
moment. What was she? Wasn’t she important to him? Didn’t he know she
loved him? He only was with her because she was his childe, he loved
Drusilla…. Bitch.
Spike walked towards her placing his arms around her waist as his chin
rested on Buffy’s bare shoulder. He could feel her stiffen from his
touch enraging his demon. Whipping Buffy around Spike pinned her with a
look of pure fury.
“Listen Goldilocks cause I’m not sayin’ it again. I know how it feels;
I’ve been there. But that doesn’t change a bloody thing. “ His voice
softened and he took her in his arms, “You’re mine princess, and I’ll do
all that I can to make you happy. I’m your sire it comes with the job.
But you can’t make me choose between you and my sire.”
Sighing Buffy relaxed into his embrace mumbling into his chest.
“I’m sorry sire… forgive me?”
“All is forgiven luv. Wait here, I’ll be right back.”
Retracting his arms Spike placed a chaste kiss on her brow then exited
the room. Buffy’s pout turned into a frown, not only did she upset her
sire, but also she realized she would never be able to compete for his
love, with his Drusilla. Spike and Dru had a century plus together,
sharing in the bloodlust, murder and mayhem; what did Buffy have? Just
one measly day.
Her demon raged at the injustice, it wanted all of Spike’s affections;
it wanted the place held in Spike’s heart where Dru resided. Sighing
again she resigned herself to being hopefully second place, she was
after all Spike’s childe, that did mean something … right?
~*~*~*~*~
Spike walked out into the great room his eyes darting to the minions
that resided there. Resting his eyes on a petite auburn-haired minion he
swaggered over to her.
“You. Yeah you. I need some of your clothes, and if you tell the poofter
you’re dust.”
“I understand Master Spike.” The minion said quickly running to perform
the task at hand.
~*~*~*~*~
Buffy stood in front of the dresser combing out the tangles in her hair
when the door opened. Spike entered the room with a pair of red leather
pants and an emerald tube top. Eyes lighting up his childe walked toward
him placing a kiss on his cheek.
“Thank you sire. You shouldn’t have.” Buffy uttered glancing down at the
floor, now even more ashamed at her earlier actions.
“I told you sweetling you’re mine, it’s my job.” Spike twirled a golden
lock around his finger as Buffy took the offered clothing.
He sat on the edge of the bed while Buffy returned to the dresser to
finish her hair. “I was thinking… do you think I could see my mom?”
“When do you want to go, before or after dinner?”
Turning around Buffy sauntered towards the vampire resting on her bed.
Spike was transfixed by the way her muscles flexed under her tight skin,
the slight jiggle to her breasts. Her golden tresses cascaded down
brushing over her rosy nipples causing them to pucker. Standing before
him Buffy captured his hands cupping them over her soft mounds.
“I really am sorry for making my sire mad. How ever can I make it up to
you?”
Spike raised his head nipping at her left nipple, growling in
appreciation as she arched closer to him. “Oh, I’m sure I can think of
many ways for you to make it up to me luv, don’t worry,” curling his
tongue behind his teeth he commented. A small growl of contentment
rumbled through his chest, his childe was so eager to make her sire
happy. It pleased both the man and the demon in him.
Spike crushed his lips against Buffy’s in a smoldering kiss, she moaned
into him hungry for more. She could taste Drusilla all over him and
instinctively pulled out of his embrace, but quickly recovered not
wanting to earn her sire’s anger so soon after him forgiving her. He
felt her discomfort for a moment but didn’t push the issue, he wanted to
see if Buffy would protest or accept what she discovered.
He was pleasantly surprised to find her slowly inching her way down his
body, nipping and licking her way to the waist of his jeans. Her nimble
fingers slowly undoing the clasp to the material exposing his semi
hardened cock. Pulling his jeans down the rest of his lower half Buffy
starred at his nakedness. This was the first time she had ever gazed
upon the nude form of a man. Yes, she and Angel made with the smoochies,
and they finally consummated their relationship, which led to the
unleashed and highly psychotic vampire currently running amuck in
Sunnydale. But still, she had never looked at him, he was to shy,
insisting that the lights be off and they where under the covers.
So getting a peek at the goods so wasn’t happening, but now she had
Spike, her sire and she was going to do all the ogling she could, or
what he would allow. And he was a sight to behold, smooth, flawless
alabaster skin that only hinted at the power it contained. A lean hard
chest, tight chiseled abs, she was captivated by them reaching out,
running a hand over the taut area, so firm yet so soft, like velvet. Her
eyes traveled further down taking in the stark contrast of dark curls
and hard flesh, she licked her lips in anticipation.
Spike watched Buffy explore his body with her eyes, the look of pure
hunger and lust lit her face. Snickering to himself, he knew the poofter
didn’t have the balls to taint the saintly eyes that belonged to the
slayer. Well Spike wasn’t Angelus and Buffy sure as hell wasn’t the
slayer any longer. His cock twitched when her hand skimmed over his
abdomen, yeah he said he would wait it out, let her set the pace but
this was killing him. Grabbing Buffy by the shoulders Spike pulled her
back towards him capturing her lips in a smoldering embrace.
Buffy gave no protest to her sire’s demands and eagerly kissed him back.
In one quick motion Spike had them flipped with Buffy pinned beneath
him, as he pushed into her waiting depths. A growl escaped from Buffy’s
throat as she arched her hips to met Spike’s thrusts. He responded to
her actions with a growl of his own, low within his chest, sending
vibrations radiating through out her body, causing her to grind her clit
into his pelvic bone. Ducking his head Spike captured one rosy nub
between his teeth, lavishing it with his tongue, worrying it with his
blunt teeth.
Buffy hissed as she arched further into him, desiring him to eat her
alive, the feelings he evoked in her she couldn’t describe, but knowing
no one could or would ever make her feel this way, except Spike.
Shifting into game face Spike bit down on the supple flesh between his
teeth causing the sweet life giving fluid to flood his mouth, as his
hips picked up speed. Buffy screamed her release into the air sinking
her fangs into his neck. The sensation of her small lips sucking on his
flesh was his undoing, as he shot his release deep inside her still
quivering channel.
~*~*~*~*~
Xander and Oz where patrolling one of the many cemeteries in Sunnydale,
both lost in thought. The two young men couldn’t help but wonder what
had happened to Willow, no doubt Angelus played a part. After he killed
her fish Xander figured she wasn’t far behind. A shudder uncontrollably
went through his body, just at the thought of Miss Calendar and the
things that psychotic monster did to her. What horrors might have been
ushered upon the redhead, or if she was still alive, what might she be
going through now?
Oz stopped placing his arm out to halt Xander in mid stride. Turning the
redhead whispered.
“I smell two vamps up ahead.”
Removing their stakes they stood ready as the one fledgling, and one
minion stalked towards them.
“Ooooh! Look, delivery.” Vamp number one said as he shifted into game
face snarling his elongated incisors glistening in the moonlight. Vamp
number two quickly followed, already in game face as he charged after
Xander.
Xander must have been having a good night, because he was able to
sidestep and miss the attack by a second. Vamp number one charged Oz
knocking him to the ground. The two struggled, thrashing and bucking
against each other. Vamp number two punched Xander in the nose, causing
blood to gush forth. Licking his lips the vampire couldn’t wait till
this prey was subdued.
Stumbling on his feet Xander regained his balance gripping the stake
tighter, just waiting for his opportunity. Oz kneed his attacker in the
balls, the vampire flipped off of him cradling himself, as he howled in
pain. Jumping to his feet Oz brought the stake down into the demon’s
chest and watched as it turned to dust. Xander was pinned between his
vampire and a mausoleum, “I refuse to go out like this! Nah uh, no way.”
As if on cue Oz jumped the vampire from the back, using his enhanced
werewolf strength he pinned the demon’s arms to its sides. Xander sent
the stake home as dust filtered around their heads.
~*~*~*~*~
Drusilla laid draped across the bed enchanted by the still sleeping form
beside her. Her nude body seemed to shimmer from the light of the
fireplace. Darla entered the room fresh from the hunt leaving Angelus to
his own entertainment.
“Oh, such a pretty creature. Where ever did Angelus find her?” She
questioned running a slender finger down the girl’s cheek.
“Pretty pixie will come and play soon. Won’t Miss Edith be pleased!”
Darla crawled onto the bed perching beside the still body. Soon their
latest family member would rise and she wanted to be present to greet
her.
~*~*~*~*~
Buffy watched as Spike drained his ‘happy meal on legs’, but he paused
turning to face her.
“Here luv.” He extended the still conscious man to her. Buffy emerged
from the shadows her white fangs glistening in the moon light. She
slipped her incisors into the wound her sire made and finished the kill.
Xander’s eyes widened in shock and fear from his hiding spot behind a
tree, as he watched the scene play out before his eyes. No, it couldn’t
be, Buffy was a vampire. He felt sick to his stomach, but quickly
clapping his hand over his mouth he forced the nausea back. He didn’t
want to be found, quietly turning around after they walked away he
pushed off the tree into a sprint. He had to unite with Oz, then inform
Giles about Buffy.
~*~*~*~*~
Two blondes walked hand in hand down the almost deserted street. Spike
didn’t ask what his childe intended to do once she reached her mother’s
house, he was just there for mutual support and if she needed it. Buffy
wondered what would her mother’s reaction be towards her, she was
thinking not too good. Granted she had been “missing” for three days,
but she couldn’t help that, she was technically dead for two of those
days
Coming to a halt outside 1630 Revello Drive Buffy released a breath
she’d been holding.
“You sure you’re ok with this kitten?” Spike asked her taking in her
worried expression.
She feverishly chewed on her bottom lip drawing blood. Buffy couldn’t
help but dread her reaction to the temptation of the fresh blood her
mother possessed. She did feed before coming so she only hoped her demon
was satisfied and sedated for now. But wasn’t that one of the first
things vampires did when they rose, attack and kill their loved ones?
That’s what Giles and Angel told her, but she didn’t feel like she
wanted to kill her mother… how strange… really. ‘Hello demon here,
shouldn't it want to maim and destroy my mom?’
Grabbing Buffy's chin Spike sucked vigorously upon the wounded flesh as
she moaned into his hair. “If we don’t stop, I won't get to see my mom.”
Giving her bottom lip one last suck Spike removed his mouth.
“I’ll be out here, if you need me.”
Buffy walked the steps to her mother’s front porch, it was funny she no
longer thought of this house as her home. Her home was with Spike, her
sire, her lover; she was no longer her mother’s little girl. Hesitantly
she extended her hand and pushed the doorbell. Buffy could sense three
heartbeats inside and she wondered who could be visiting her mother. The
door opened and Buffy came face to face with a very worn looking Joyce
Summers.
Joyce’s voice caught in her throat. Was this a mirage, granted she knew
that a grieving mind was prone to hallucinations, but this; it seemed so
real. Tears welled in both their eyes as Joyce extended a shaky hand out
to brush along her daughter’s cheek.
“Mommy,” came the pained filled voice. Buffy felt sick at the sight of
her mother. Had she caused this much worry? ‘Duh Buffy, you’re only her
baby. And you sorta died.’ Her inner Buffy voiced.
“Oh god, Buffy. Come in, come in.” Her mother gripped her by the hand
pulling her over the threshold, thereby removing the invisible barrier
that prevented her entrance into her former residence.
Giles wondered what was taking the elder Summers woman so long at the
door. Entering the hallway connecting to the foyer he stopped dead in
his tracks. Buffy was encased in the mother of all bear hugs, good thing
she didn’t need to breath. She hugged her mother back inhaling the scent
that was uniquely “mom”; tide, jasmine, and love, as fresh tears ran
down her cheeks.
“Oh baby, where have you been?” Joyce inquired pulling back to look into
those familiar hazel eyes.
~*~*~*~*~
Xander whipped past Oz shouting, “No time to talk gotta get to Giles,
Buffy’s been turned.”
Oz didn’t have to ask twice taking off behind the boy. They didn’t waver
as they ran past the blocks of houses intent on getting to their
destination. 1630 Revello Drive came into view as they dashed down the
street. Spike smelled them before they came into view, therefore, he
slipped behind a tree near the house.
“What are those bloody gits up to?”
Xander was first up the steps and burst past the front door that was now
open. He came to a dead halt as he watched mother and daughter embrace.
‘Monkey balls’, he was to late. Oz came in behind him eyes widening but
to winded to speak. Tara hung back in the shadows taking the whole scene
in.
Xander forced himself to stand straight, as Buffy and Joyce broke apart
to take in the spectacle.
“Get away from her.’ Xander panted fanning his hand towards the vampire.
“She’s not Buffy. I saw her feed, she a vampire.”
Automatically Giles ripped Joyce away from her daughter into his
embrace. Years of council training were engrained in him, so when one
mentioned vampire he did only what came naturally. Eyes widening Buffy
slapped her hands over her mouth taking in the anguished looks of her
mother, watcher and friends. Cordelia had chosen that time to join the
mix.
“Remove your hands Rupert, this is ridiculous she is not a vampire.”
Joyce stammered trying to break away from his death grip on her arms.
“Did she enter on her own Joyce, or was she invited?”
“I told her to come in. I don’t see how….”
Giles removed his silver crucifix from his jacket thrusting it in
Buffy’s face, she hissed shielding her eyes. Backing away towards the
door.
“I’m not here to hurt you guys. I just wanted to see my mom, you have to
believe me. Giles… Xander… Oz?”
“You are NOT Buffy Summers. Get out you bloody demon.” Giles shouted
retrieving a stake as he advanced upon his ex-charge keeping the cross
on her. Buffy stumbled out the door almost falling but was caught by her
sire.
Spike had heard the entire encounter and he ached listening to the agony
in his childe’s voice.
“Come on luv, time to go.” He whispered into her ear, clasping her hand
in his, never removing his eyes from those of the Watcher. Giles watched
them vanish into the shadows of the night, then quickly closed the door
behind him.
“We have to do another dis-invite spell… now.”
~*~*~*~*~
The figures hunched in the bushes across the street watched with a great
deal of interest in the happenings at the Summers’ home. Their eyes
darted to the blonde pair retreating down the street, then back to the
man closing the door. Reaching inside a bag they retrieved a cell phone,
pushed the programmed number then placed the phone to their ear.
“Code red!”
~*~*~*~*~
A/N Ok let me know if you're still with me,lol. Also I got a LJ, so if
you want to know when I update come by and

Chapter 7
The figures hunched in the bushes across the street watched with great
interest the happenings at the Summers’ home. Their eyes darting to the
blonde pair retreating down the street, then back to the man closing the
door. Reaching inside a bag one of the men retrieved a cell phone,
pushed the programmed number then placing the phone to his ear.
“Code red!”
~*~*~*~*~
Joyce was livid, what the hell just happened in her house was beyond her
comprehension at the moment. She had her daughter back, right here in
her arms, then she was viciously ripped away again. Turning on her heels
she locked angry eyes on the two men she held responsible.
Rupert Giles and Xander Harris
“What did you just do Rupert? Buffy was back, she was home, and you
chased her away.”
Thrusting the cross back into his jacket's pocket, emitting a labored
sigh, Giles ran a hand over his wary face . “Joyce, that... that
creature was not Buffy. If we are to believe what Xander asserted to be
true.”
Xander was sitting on the bottom step of the stair case visibly pale, as
Oz stood over him with his normal cool expression over his features.
Giles turned to the two teens.
“Xander, Oz, would you kindly inform us as to what you witnessed.”
“Yes, Xander. Please enlighten us all about my daughter why don't you.”
Joyce repeated with slumped shoulders heading towards the den. The four
teens and Watcher followed suit. Once entering everyone took seats
around the room. The air was heavy with silence for what seemed an
eternity, leaning forward on her knees Joyce asked the teens to relay
their story. She had to know what made them believe Buffy was a vampire,
and who was that man she was with.
Xander cleared his throat taking in a deep breath before he started to
speak.
“Oz here didn't witness anything, it was all me. We where out on patrol,
but, you already know that. Anyway, we split up and I headed further
into the cemetery to finish up for the night. Well I rounded this corner
and I hear a struggle in the distance, so I ducked behind this tree.
Which provided me with an excellent view of the chompfest going on. So
first I see Spike...,”
Joyce wrinkled her brow, “Who is this Spike?”
“We'll fill you in on him in a moment Joyce. I would like to here what
Xander has to tell us first.”
All attention was focused back on the young man sitting in the chair.
“Yeah, so there's Spike doing the whole 'I want to suck your blood'
thing, but then he stops. And I'm thinking “What's with the evil blood
sucking fiend stopping for?”, when he motions to something in the
shadows. Then out walks Buffy, and I'm ready to start dancing cause Buff
is alive, and Spike was going to get his undead ass staked. But she goes
all “grrr” and all with the bumpies.”
Giles whipped his glasses of his face giving them a vigorous rub, “And
she fed. You saw her feed?”
“Yeah G-man, dropping the poor guy on the ground. I bolted after that,
had to get back here to warn you.”
Gasping, Joyce brought her hand to her mouth fighting back tears, as
Giles pinned a look upon Xander for daring to call him such a stupid
name.
“So Buffy's not Buffy, right? From what I've read and what you have told
me she's a demon.”
“No Joyce, a demon is inhabiting her body. Buffy is dead, lost to all of
us. That thing is wearing Buffy's shell, her body, but the girl we once
knew and loved is gone.”
Fighting back tears the elder Summers grief became rage.
“And who was the blonde man with her?”
“Spike, also known as William the Bloody. He was sired by Drusilla, who
you know now is Angel's childe, he sired her. But Spike earned his place
as a member of the scourge of Europe. He is known as the slayer of
slayers. And he came to Sunnydale to kill his third Slayer, but from the
looks of it he has sired one instead.”
Giles paused a moment to rethink his answer, “Or Drusilla sired Buffy
but has placed Spike over her teachings.”
“So that monster not only stole my baby, and murdered her, but she
turned her into one of those... things?”
Everything had come to a head at once and Joyce broke under the
pressure. She was a strong woman, but it wasn't every day you found out
your daughter was a mystical warrior chosen to save the world, and then
turned into one of the monsters she fought.
Tara rose from her set and strolled over to the sobbing woman, as she
sat down next to her she whispered soft comforting words in her ear.
“C-C-Come on Mrs. Summers, I-I-I'll make you s-s-something to s-s-settle
your nerves.”
The two headed towards the kitchen as the others watched their
retreating forms. Placing his glasses back on the watcher couldn't help
but think he could use a nice stiff drink.
“Well, we mustn't dally behind, let's get to work shall we.”
~*~*~*~*~
Buffy couldn't stop the shaking that was coursing through her body, nor
the images of horror that flashed over her mother's features upon
hearing she was a vampire. Her demon raged, how dare her own mother
reject her in such a manner. Yeah, she kinda expected it from her
Watcher, and maybe even Xander, but her mother... No!, she thought as a
pout formed across her lips. Spike watched the petite blonde to the
right of him, he wished he could ease her pain. But he couldn't, a
sire/childe bond only went so far. So he did the next best thing he
knew, placing his arm around her slim shoulders he hugged her towards
him.
Buffy instantly calmed from her sire's embrace, it was as if he was the
cool water that extinguished her raging inferno. Neither one spoke on
their way back to the mansion, lost in their own thoughts. Spike hoped
Buffy didn't give into her demon's request for vengeance at the atrocity
passed down upon it. How blind and gullible the ex-slayer was to believe
the words of the council of wankers, taking what they said as fact, as
if they were infallible.
Buffy had bit down upon their definition of good and evil since she
first found out she was the chosen one, and started to slay. Never once
did she question them, ask how they knew that vampires and other demons
where truly evil. Even when she first met Spike, and she could see the
love he had for his sire, it never once occurred to her to ask Giles how
was this even possible.
Even Angel had told her that vampires were cold heartless creatures,
deserving nothing but a dusty ending to their evil existence. And who
was she to question him, duh, he was a vampire, he knew his own
kind, right... wrong. But now Buffy knew, she knew Angel was a bigot to
his own kind. So ashamed of the acts he committed as Angelus, he hid and
repressed what he truly was.
A vampire, a hunter, a creature of the night, something of beauty, one
that should be feared. Something she liked being, she was finally free
of life's restraints and the responsibility of being the slayer. No
longer walking around with “SLAYER” written on her forehead, or an
expiration date looming over her head. Her eyes had been opened, she
really should thank Drusilla.
But beyond that, above all that she was told, Buffy knew and she could
feel she was the same person she was before her re-birth. Well not
exactly, cause hot public car sex, so wasn't happening before she was
turned. But vampires kept some portion of their souls upon changing. It
wasn't one hundred percent there, but the essence of what made Buffy,
Buffy was there.
The whole guilt issue towards feeding upon humans was gone, but guilt
towards one's vampiric family was there, the same with loyalty, love,
jealousy, and other emotions. She couldn't fathom how blind she had
been. But would you deliberately inform your chosen one, that the
creatures she dusted every night could feel emotions much like the
living.
Buffy would just have to approach her mother when she was alone, not
with a stuffy British watcher glaring over her shoulder. She just had to
believe that Buffy was the same girl she was three days ago.
Both blondes paused in their steps, Spike turned to face Buffy, “Looks
like Angelus has another childe.”
~*~*~*~*~
Willow drifted towards the muffled voices that seemed to be all around
her. Her head was pounding, her mouth was dry, and her body hurt, she
had never felt pain like this before. It was if her limbs had ceased to
move for a long period of time. That though cause Willow to sit up right
with a start.
Oh god, Angelus!
The images from the school's computer lab came flashing back into her
minds eye. Angelus' twisted smile, the taunts he whispered into her ear,
and then he bit her. Her pale trembling hand reached for her neck.
Darla and Drusilla stilled their movements watching, observing their
newly risen fledgling. Taking in the contortion of her features as she
processed what had happened to her.
“She is very pretty.” Darla commented leaning into the dark haired
vampiress' ear, who nodded her head in agreement. Drusilla was still
bewitched with her, and she couldn't wait until Willow snapped out of
her daze to play with her.
'Oh goodness!' Angel did it, he turned her, Willow moved her hand over
her jugular vein, where she should feel it's pulse. But there was
nothing, that's when she noticed she wasn't breathing either. A sob tore
through her chest, she was dead, she was evil, she was soulless. Could
someone just be nice and stake her now?
“Little sister seems to be distressed.”
Drusilla sang as a smirk played on her lips. Willow remembered the
voices she heard upon waking and turned her attention towards them, she
was greeted by the two master vampires.
Willow regarded the pair before her, Drusilla was lounging next to her,
draped in a deep red sheer robe, that fanned open around her legs,
covering the area of the bed were she laid. Darla sat at the redhead's
feet idly playing with her toes, gazing upon her nude form.
Willow shrank back at her state of undress as Dru reach across stilling
her hand. As if to read the thoughts that danced around in her head, she
wanted nothing more than to cover herself. The dark haired vampire's
eyes seemed to come alive, dancing with mirth.
“It's ok little plum, let big sis make it all better.” Drusilla cooed
leaning over licking a trail up Willow's cheek.
Darla followed suit ghosting her hands over the fledgling's legs,
stopping at the nest of curls guarding her sex. Willow momentarily
forgot she no longer needed to breath as her breath hitched in her
throat. Drusilla captured her lips in a bruising kiss, nibbling on them
with blunt teeth, she bit down hard causing blood to trickle forth.
Willow couldn't help the protest of pain that escaped her mouth, or the
arousal her demon felt. But it was wrong, very wrong, she couldn't do
this, couldn't feel even this remotely turned on.
But she did and she was, she felt herself growing wetter from the
nipping and sucking the ravin haired vampire was ushering upon her lips.
Drusilla's facial bones shifted calling forth her demon visage, running
her tongue over her elongated fang causing blood to ooze forth. Willow's
demon lurched at the offered prize, and she began to suck greedily at
the cool pink flesh, pulling it back into her mouth.
Drusilla's hand brushed over Willow's pale rosy nipple, flicking and
twirling it, coaxing it to a hardened peak. As a hiss escaped Willow's
lips followed by Dru's knife like nail sliced a thin slit across her
right breast. Transfixed the red head watched as the vampire lowered her
head, tracing the red liquid with her tongue.
Darla wasted no time, slipping her finger beyond the curls and into the
silken folds of her gran-childe's sex. Willow's hips bucked up off the
mattress from the invasion, and the sensations that were coursing
through her body. The ex-computer geek's body felt as if it were set
ablaze, from the ministrations that both master vampires were visiting
upon her supple form.
~*~*~*~*~
Travers was sitting at his desk going over some old tomes when there was
a knock at the door. Slanting the book but not placing it down he peered
over the edge.
“Come in.”
The dark haired woman stuck her head into the room, afraid to proceed
the rest of the way inside the office.
“Well, speak. What have you to say?”
“T-t-t-the phone, it's for you.” The head watcher rolled his eyes
releasing a sigh. The daft bint came all the way in here to tell him
there was a pending phone call for him. Sometimes he felt with each
passing generation the watchers got dumber. Must be that American
influence, satellite TV was never a good thing to begin with.
“Thank you. That is all,” he commented waving his hand in the air as a
king dismissing one of his subjects. Waiting until the door closed
behind him, Travers reached for the phone.
“This is Travers. What can I do for you?”
The man's features darkened as he listened to the voice on the phone,
those two small words uttered carried so much with them. Hanging up the
phone he rose from his chair.
Quentin Travers exited his office walking past his secretary, and walked
down the red carpeted hallways, passing portraits of previous head
council members. Coming to a stop he placing his hands upon the ornate
door handles that graced the large oak doors, with a flick of the wrist
they flew open. Travers walked into the room and around the large
circular conference table that greeted him. Twenty chairs accompanied
the table, and shelves of books lined the walls.
The air was heavy with dust, since the room was barely used, only for
extreme emergencies that called the councils most revered members to
arms. The elderly watcher walked over to the head chair, it was encased
in worn dark brown leather. He dusted the light curtain of dust away and
sat down. Turning to the wooden box to his left, Travers flipped the lid
up. Inside sat a red button surrounded by blue velvet like covering.
With a resounding sigh he placed his index finger down on it, as it sent
out silent waves to those awaiting its call.
