Last Time With Feeling

by Jenny

Okay I rewrote 2 songs from "Once more with Feeling":
FEEDBACK!!
AN: The tempo of the songs are basically the same
AN2: THANK GOD FOR Buffyworld.com!


As a last ditch effort, Angel tried to get Connor by using a time travel spell that would send him to an important time in his blood's life- but Buffy's blood was still in him, and sent him to Sunnydale. He walked around and saw Buffy singing about walking threw a fire.

Buffy:

I touch the fire and it freezes me

I look into it and it's black

Why can't I feel?

My skin should crack and peel

I want the fire back!

Now through the smoke, she calls to me

To make my way across the flame

To save the day

Or maybe melt away

I guess it's all the same

So I will walk through the fire

'Cause where else can I turn?

I will walk through the fire

And let it-" Buffy suddenly looked up and saw Angel there sitting on a crate and he started singing not knowing that she was there.

I had a son, he loved me

He was my fire, and my soul

He made me alive

And she did, but she died

Am I really to blame?

I walked away when she needed me

Would I have done that to the babe?

Maybe I'd cry

But eventually they all die

And I will still be here

I touch the fire- it scorches me

But does that really make me live?

Sure I died, and she did and I cried

I want my Fire Back

Buffy:

Through the smoke, she called to me

But now there's another reason too

My Ex is here

It's almost too much to bare

I guess it's all the same

He had a child, he lied to me

But I can't really complain...

He Screwed a whore, who's really just a bore-

Hell I almost did to Spike

Buffy and Angel:

So I will walk through the fire

'Cause where else can I turn?

I will walk through the fire

And let it-

SPIKE: (verse three)

The torch I bear is scorching me

Buffy's laughing, I've no doubt

I hope she fries

I'm free if that bitch dies!

But then I'd Fry too

SWEET:

'Cause they are drawn to the fire.

From diffrent Points of Time

She's the Slayer and loves a Vampire, but

SWEET:

Some people

SPIKE:

She will

SPIKE/SWEET:

never learn.

SPIKE/SWEET:

And she will walk through the fire

and let it-

Back at the Magic Box

GILES: (bridge)

Will this do a thing to change her?

Am I leaving Dawn in danger?

Is my slayer too far gone to care?

XANDER:

What if Buffy can't defeat it?

ANYA:

If she's not in danger why is he here?

XANDER:

Wait a second I finally get it!

What she's talking about…wait its time for the Refrain-

ANYA/GILES/TARA/WILLOW/XANDER: (refrain)

We'll see it through

It's what we're always here to do

So we will walk through the fire

BUFFY:

So one by one, they turn from me

I guess my friends can't face the cold

But why I froze, not one among them knows

And never can be told.

(Tara) What can't we face... If we're together?

ANYA: She came from the grave much graver

SPIKE: First he'll kill her, then I'll save her

TARA: Everything is turning out so dark

SPIKE: No, I'll save her, then I'll kill her

WILLOW: I think this line's mostly filler

GILES: What's it gonna take to strike a spark? So one by one they turn to

me The distant redness as their guide That single flame A

in't what they had in mind. It's what they have inside. &n

bsp; Going through the motions Walking through the part

BUFFY: SWEET: These endless days are finally ending in a blaze&

nbsp; She will come to me.

BUFFY, ANYA, GILES, SPIKE, TARA, WILLOW, XANDER, ANGEL:

And we are caught in the fire

The point of no return

So we will walk through the fire

And let it

Burn

Let it burn

Let it burn

Let it burn!

Buffy and Angel kick down the door of the Bronze. It smashes to pieces.

SWEET (spoken) Showtime!

"BUFFY! Angel? HELP!" Dawn screamed from the position on the stage. A

ll the demons looked to see who Angel was and were shocked to see Angelus i

n front of them and they kneeled in front of them.

"You should have told me during the refrain who this was," Angel chuckled a

t the demons while Buffy and Dawn looked shocked at him.

"What?" Buffy asked

"They were in a club in LA a few months ago- they don't like my singingâ

€¦ not very many people do," Angel replied simply going up and untying

Dawn without any remark from the demons. Dawn hugged Angel and went back down next to Buffy who suddenly began singing.

Buffy:

Life's a show

And we all play our parts

Some dumb and some smart

But all needed to start

It's all right

If some things come out wrong

Hell I've died twice in all

But I come back every time

Angel:

Where there's light

There's fic

Every day's

A gift

Connor will

Come Back

Cordy's hair

Will too

Fred and Gunn

Hook up

But it still

So hard all day

BUFFY: To be like the others.

Angel:

To fit in, in this mortal's world.

Don't give me songs.

BUFFY: Don't give me songs.

Anya and Tara take up positions behind Buffy to be her backup singers and dancers. The three of them move in sync. Spike and Xander line up next to Angel and start break dancing slowly in the background

BUFFY:

Give me something to sing about.

Angel:

I need something to sing about.

Angel:

Life's a song

You don't get to rehearse.

But hey then I got cursed

Things can make it worse

Buffy:

Still my friends

Don't know why I ignore

The million things or more

I should be dancing for

.Buffy continues dancing, bit grabs Angel in the process.

BUFFY:

All the joy

Life sends

ANGEL:

Family

And friends

Buffy:

All the twists

and bends

ANGEL:

Knowing that

it ends

BOTH OF THEM:

Well that

Depends

BUFFY:

On if they let you go

On if they know enough to know

When you're in the ground

You should stay down

She walks up onto the stage, looks back at the others, then at Sweet still sitting. He makes his string-pulling gesture. Buffy walks right up to him.

BUFFY:

There was no pain

No fear, no doubt

Till they pulled me out

Of Heaven.

ANGEL:

I know my son's not in Heaven

I know I'm not going to Heaven

Buffy:

Not another self-pity

I live in Hell

Cuz I've been expelled from Heaven

ANGEL:

I wasn't here,

So I must fear it's my fault

Oh god its all my fault

My Sons in Hell

Cuz I didn't tell

BUFFY:

So give me something to sing about.

Please

Give me something...

Sweet shakes his head. Buffy starts dancing wildly, but is stopped by our Dark Night ANGEL!

ANGEL:

Life's not a song

Cuz it would be threw

Three songs ago

Life isn't simple

Life is just this

It's living

[brushes hair back from her face]

You'll get along

The pain that you feel

You only can heal

By living

[Buffy looks about to cry]

You have to go on living

So one of us is living.

I've killed a lot

Both Men and Girls

Babys and Boys

But I learned about living

Go to those who care, and maybe you'll come through

The End

The hardest part of this fic, is reading it
