*~*~*~*~*
Tell me exactly what am I supposed to do
Now that I have allowed you to beat me
Do you think that we could play another game
Maybe I could win this time
*~*~*~*~*

*~ She's been lying to me all this time. My eyes narrow over at the little blonde girl that I had thought was my shy, beautiful lover. The one who was
kissing my best friend. The slayer, the girl I had trusted with my life, my friendship, and even my love. They've both been lying to me ever since we started
this little charade.

*~ I turn my eyes back to another blonde, the bleached vampire standing next to me, his face twisted in a smug smirk. "Do it," I say, my voice void of all
emotion except the white-hot anger I'm feeling.

*~*~*~*~*
I kind of like the misery you put me through
Darlin' you can trust me completely
If you even try to look the other way
I think that I could kill this time
*~*~*~*~*

*~ Two nights later, I stand before the Slayer, acting as I always have. I have a hard time keeping my hatred under control as I look into her decietful eyes. Some slayer... The bitch didn't even know I was a vampire. I allow myself a cruel smile as she turns her back to start walking out of the Watcher's apartment. That might be because of the spell I cast to make me appear human. It's amazing what becoming a vampire will do to your natural talents.

*~ "Let me go with you, Buffy," I hear a voice ask, a voice that's so sickeningly sweet and honest that it makes me sick. After she's dead, I'll never have to
hear that sound from my mouth ever again. "We need some 'just girl' time."

*~*~*~*~*
It doesn't really seem I'm getting through to you
Though I see you weeping so sweetly
I think that you might have to take another taste
A little bit of hell this time
*~*~*~*~*

*~ I can feel my sire like a burning presence in the back of my mind. He's watching this from a safe distance, his pride and lust for me rushing through my
newly changed body as I fall into step beside the blonde bitch of a slayer. I started this game with the intention of getting back at the bitches who betrayed
me, but it grew into something beyond what I'd been expecting. I not only had revenge, I had a new mate as well. Someone who was proud of me. Someone who *wanted* and *needed* me. Someone who can give me the darkness I'd always secretly craved.

*~ I wait until we're inside the farthest cemetery from town before I stop, watching Buffy take a few steps more without realizing I'm with her. "And I told him-... Will? Why'd you stop? Did you hear something?"

*~ "Nope," I say, slowly letting the barriers leak away until she can see exactly what I am. "Nothing important."

*~ "Wha-?"

*~*~*~*~*
Lie to me
*~*~*~*~*
Is she not right?
Is she insane?
Will she now
Run for her life in the battle that ends this day
*~*~*~*~*

*~ "Full of the questions tonight, are we, Slayer?" I ask, my voice bleeding away to a low growl of the demon. I still haven't allowed my face to shift, but
I'm allowing my power to slowly wash over her. I can almost see myself in the mind's eye of my sire- glowing pale skin surrounded by blood-red hair, set
off by an utter stillness that had never been there before. In his mind, I had never looked more beautiful. "How 'bout I ask a question of my own?"

*~ I don't even give her time to respond before I have her pinned to the slightly damp grass. Either she's losing her touch, or I've caught her by surprise. I
smile, showing straight, white teeth. Or I'm just that good. "How long have you been fucking my girlfriend?"

*~*~*~*~*
You always wanted people to remeber you
To leave your little mark on society
Don't you know your wish is coming true today
Another victim dies tonight
*~*~*~*~*

*~ "You were magnificent, luv," my sire grinds his mouth against mine, his body cold, hard, and ready for me. I open my mouth to his, letting him taste the
almost too sweet blood of the slayer. With a growl in the back of his throat, he lowers me to the blood-soaked grass beside the cooling body of the slayer. He takes me then, hard, fast, and violent.

*~ "It was easy," I smirk, adjusting my clothes a few minutes later, the blood of the slayer blending in easily with the dark clothes. "She was weak. So
fucking weak. The bitch." I roll over onto my stomach and stare into the pale, still face of what used to be my best friend. Her blue eyes are fixed and staring
and her lips are slack with death as I softly kiss them.

*~ "You wanted to be normal, Buffy," I say cruelly, getting to my feet next to my lover, a small chuckle leaving my throat. "You got your wish, *love*. You now
joined the long list of 'gang victims' left for dead in Sunnydale."

*~*~*~*~*
Is she really telling lies again
Doesn't she realize she's in danger
*~*~*~*~*

*~ "Tara?" I make my voice high and scared as I stare at my girlfriend through hair caked with blood, looking at the bitch with scared green eyes that I
tried desperately to make look innocent. "Help me..." I make my voice hysterical as I start to cry, dry, hiccuping sobs. "W-we were a-attacked..."

*~ "Goddess, Willow, get in here," Tara grabs my arms and pulls me into her apartment, pushing me to sit down on the bed while she went for the first aide kit in the bathroom. She's supposed to be powerful... She's supposed to 'feel' things like this... I allow a small, smug grin as she wipes at the long gash in my
arm.

*~ I took an unneeded breath, allowing it to hiss in through my teeth as I pretended to be in pain. "Who was it, Will? Where's Buffy?"

*~ "I-it was Spike," I whimper, the tears still  flowing down my face as I fight to keep from laughing at the wave of fear that went through the kneeling witch. For once, I was telling the truth. Well, Spike cut me... Twice... We couldn't do it more, because we never would've made it out of the crypt. The human me
never would have guessed pain would be such a turn-on. "H-he lost the c-chip."

*~ "Oh, Goddess..." the blonde witch fell back on her heels, tears welling up in her hazel eyes. "B-Buffy?"

*~ "She's g-gone, Tara," I sob, falling into her arms as she tried to deal with the news. She hugged me tight, her thin arms holding me as I made the proper
noises. I bury my face in her neck, my lips twisting upward as I lick a slow line of flesh.

*~ "How long have you been fucking her?" I ask, quickly moving to where I was straddling her waist, holding her still as she tried to get away. I pull
away so that I could look into her face.

*~ "I- I d-don't know what y-you're talking about..."

*~ "Lies!" I hiss, making her flinch.

*~*~*~*~*
The little bitch she went and she told A LIE
And now she will never tell another A LIE
NEVER FUCKING LIE TO ME!
*~*~*~*~*

*~ A knock came at the door and I step back away from the bloodied body of my former lover. I answer the door, looking at my sire through a calm human mask. "It's done," I say, taking his hand and leading him into the room.

*~ "Well, luv, what's now?" he asks, pulling me into his lap on the bed. I move to straddle *his* lap, wrapping my legs around his waist and my arms around
his neck.

*~ "Well, first, I want you to fuck me silly," I say, deadpan, then a glint enters my eyes, "And then... What do you say we pay a visit to Grandad?"

*~*~*~*~*
I think that I could kill this time
*~*~*~*~*
