Summary:
Buffy’s dead-How? The LA Version
Warning:
Character Death
“This
isn’t happening it can’t be” Xander was holding onto Cordelia who was
trying to stop Fred from screaming.
Angel
looked between Faith who was holding Buffy’s body and the other man.
“Take
them upstairs Xander” the other man nodded
“No
I want to stay here” Cordelia sobbed.
“For
fuck sake just do it woman” he snarled at her.
“Please
Xander” and he watched as the young man ushered the two girls up the stairs
and out of sight.
“Faith”
he bent down before realizing he’d knelt in the blood. She didn’t here him
or was ignoring him
“Sweetheart
we have to move her” he tried to take Buffy from her and was met with a punch
to the face.
“You
don’t touch her nobody touches her” Faith screamed stroking the girls hair.
The usual Blonde was now red due to all the blood that had escaped her wound.
He
reeled back. Faith had caught Buffy when she fell outside and had carried her
back into the hotel and since then wouldn’t let anybody touch her.
“What
about your shoulder” he asked her. It had been injured as well. The brunette
was cuddling her sister Slayer’s body so tight to her Angel was sure she must
have been hurting too.
“Can’t
she’ll get cold” Faith whispered as fresh tears appeared in her eyes.
“I’ll
go see if I can get a blanket” he tried to smile but it wouldn’t come.
He
managed to shut the office door before he collapsed. He couldn’t take it
anymore he broke there and then. This wasn’t happening-it couldn’t have
happened.
Just
ten minutes before she was on her way to go and get Raven back.
FLASHBACK
“Come
on Xander I’m not getting any younger” Buffy smiled at Faith. The two of
them were waiting on him unlocking the door so they could get in the car.
“Buf”
she turned and looked in the direction Xander was pointing and saw Lita standing
there.
“Give
me five minutes” she sighed and made her way over.
“Before
you start I’m holding up the flag” her sister smiled at her making Buffy
uneasy.
“I
thought about what happened and I want us to make up”
“Because
I threatened you” Buffy raised an eyebrow.
“Well
yeah” Lita smiled.
Buffy
honestly didn’t know what to say
“Please”
Lita smiled.
“Fine”
Buffy said and was about to make her way back to the car.
“Don’t
I get a hug?” she asked.
Deciding
to keep the peace Buffy went into her arms.
“What
the hell” Faith had just seen Buffy hug Lita.
“Hell
has indeed froze over” Xander smiled back at her.
“What
the…. Come on Buf” Faith shouted out the window
She
got out the car when she didn’t get an answer and made her way over to the
pair.
Buffy
turned and smiled at Faith. Then the brunette felt a pain in her shoulder. She
looked down and saw blood on her shoulder.
“Oh
my god Faith” Buffy whispered before falling. Faith caught her just before she
hit the ground.
“What
happened?” Xander came rushing over.
“Don’t know she fainted when she saw the blood” Faith was confused.
“Let’s get her inside”.
Xander
followed her back into the hotel
“Angel”
he yelled when they got inside.
“What
happened” he came rushing over.
“You tell me” Faith shrugged “Think I was shot”
“What
do you mean think?” Angel looked at her. Something was off here.
“Didn’t feel it is what I mean”
“But….”
That’s when it hit him. It wasn’t Faith’s blood he was smelling it was
Buffy’s
“Oh
god no” he prayed
Catching
on Faith dropped to the ground with Buffy still in her arms. She cracked her
shoulder on the side of the desk.
Moving
the blonde’s jacket she saw the bullet hole right beside her heart.
“No
no no” she kept repeating.
“How
the hell” Angel yelled. He looked down at Faith but she was hysterical at this
point so he looked over at Xander who informed him of what happened.
“She’s
dead isn’t she?” Xander looked at him with tears in his eyes.
Angel
nodded. “She was dead the time she hit the ground”.
“Come
here” he pulled the younger man to him not bothered that the pair of them
hated each other. At this moment they were bonded in grief over the death of the
girl they both loved.
“Willow”
Xander, cried “We have to tell her”.
“Tell
her. Oh no” Cordelia screamed as she came down the stairs. Xander wiped his
eyes and walked over to her.
Angel
walked into the office and phoned the Magic Box. He saw Buffy staring at him as
he waited on someone picking up.
She
had died so suddenly that she hadn’t even shut her eyes. That’s when he
noticed. The light that usually shone so bright out of them was gone. His Buffy
was gone.
“Hello?”
Some one finally answered.
“Anya
i…..”
“Angel”….
She interrupted.
“Buffy’s dead” he heard the phone fall
End
Flashback
That
had been an hour ago. Willow had picked the phone up and he had explained what
happened. She had said they were right on their way.
“Angel”
he heard Faith shouting
“Yes”
he came out
“She’s
too cold where’s the blanket”
That’s
when he realized the girl was so far gone. She was refusing to believe Buffy was
dead.
“Angel”
he turned to see Willow, Giles, Anya, and Spike coming into the hotel. Just
behind them he saw Jeff walk in with an arm around Raven’s neck.
Part 8
Summary:
Buffy and Sunnydale’s POV on her death
Sunnydale
POV
Hi
Angel” Anya answered the phone
“
Buffy’s dead”
“What?”
the phone dropped causing the others to look at her
“What’s
wrong Anya?” Willow walked over
“Buffy’s
dead”
“WHAT”
Xander shoved the table over. “She can’t be she’s Buffy”
Jeff
looked over at Scott who was just staring into space.
“Scotty
speak to me man” he tried to get his attention.
“Hello
Angel” Willow picked up the phone “What happened?”
He
gave a quick recap “We’ll be there as quick as we can” she slammed the
phone down and just then realizing what had happened.
“Giles”
she burst into tears and the Watcher rushed over to her with his own eyes all
blood shot.
“She
can’t be she’s supposed to outlive us all” Xander kept saying as Anya
pulled him into her arms.
Giles
finally spoke
“We
have to go to LA now” he looked
between Jeff and Scott.
The
older man hadn’t said anything since the phone call and everyone was getting
worried about him
“What
about the body?” Anya asked.
“Angel
said he wouldn’t do nothing until we got there as you’re her next of kin”
Willow looked at Giles as they all left the shop.
“Scott
come on man” Jeff had to literally drag him out of the chair and into the car.
“Spike”
Willow said “We have to tell him.
Giles
agreed and they made a detour to his crypt. He may have been a shit but he was
one of the Slayer’s closest friends.
Ten
minutes later they were on the highway and on their way to Los Angeles.
“So
how did it happen?” Spike still couldn’t understand how it had happened.
“Angel
didn’t really say” Willow admitted “To be honest I don’t think he
knows”
Spike
wiped a tear from his eye
“How’s
he taking it” he nodded over at Scott who still hadn’t talked.
“Not
good” she shook her head
“Here
we are” Giles said
The
group made their way into the hotel with Jeff more or less carrying Scott.
Faith
was in the middle of the floor holding Buffy’s lifeless body and Angel was
trying to get her to let go.
BUFFY
POV
“What
the?” Buffy woke up and she didn’t understand where she was.
In
front of her was the beach during the hottest day of the year and she was
sitting eating an ice cream reading a romance.
“Where
am I?”
“Heaven?”
She heard the voice but it couldn’t be could it?
She
turned to see her mom looking at her from the next lounger
“Or
your idea of heaven” She smiled as she braided Dawn’s hair.
“Am
I dead?” Buffy asked.
Joyce
nodded
“Your
time on earth finished and they really were upset to see you go Faith
especially.
Buffy
snorted “Annoyed maybe but Faith wouldn’t be upset”
Joyce
shook her head and moved her hand.
A
vortex opened and she saw what was happening on earth at that time. Well to be
exact a certain LA hotel at that time
“What
the?” Buffy was confused.
She
saw Faith holding her lifeless body.
“She’s
more hurt than you realize” Dawn said to her.
“But”
“Are
you thinking about him?” she looked at her older sister
Buffy
nodded.
“He
thinks of you” she done the same swirly movement that Joyce had and she saw
the Magic Box just after they found out the news.
“He’s
devastated” Joyce stood behind her.
“Looks
it” Buffy snorted.
“That’s
Scott for you” she smiled at her daughter. “Won’t show how much pain
he’s in even if he’s dying inside”
“They
are all devastated they lost you” Joyce continued.
“You
were their hero” she looked at her daughter.
“You
weren’t supposed to die”
“You
can’t stay here you know that?” Joyce looked at her
“But
I can really” Buffy was getting scared. She didn’t want to lose her mom
again.
“No
you belong in the world. You’re still their champion” she smiled sadly
knowing she would miss her child terribly but safe in the knowledge that she had
a higher purpose on earth.
MEANWHILE
AT THE HOTEL
“Angel”
Willow rushed towards the vampire not caring.
He
pulled the redhead into a hug “What are we going to do?” he sobbed into her
shoulder before realizing who was at the door.
“Spike”
he beckoned the other vampire over and the two embraced. The long time rivalry
forgotten due to their grief over the death of Buffy.
When
they separated Angel asked how Scott was.
“Not
good” Willow admitted.
Right
at that moment he started whispering something that nobody could understand.
He
pulled away from Jeff and rushed over to Faith.
Realizing
that this was Buffy’s mate she conceded defeat and handed the slain girl over
to Scott.
“Mine
Mine Mine” he kept saying as he rocked backwards and forwards with her.
“Angel
we have it” Cordelia came running down the stairs brandishing a piece of paper
“Got
what?” he was still staring and Buffy and Scott
“A
spell to get her back”
Everyone
looked at the ex-cheerleader
“There’s
only one problem”
“And
that is?” Giles asked.
“She
still has to die” Fred answered as she followed Cordelia down the stairs.
Part 9
SUMMARY:
How can they bring Buffy back?
Notes:
Thanks to Charmed Book of Shadows for the spell. I have changed it a little. To
see the original check out the book.
“WHAT?”
Spike was the first to speak
“You
have to save her but she still has to die?”
“Read
this” Cordelia handed the book to Willow
The
Witch read the book
“Oh
we can turn back time but…
She
looked up realizing what the other girls meant
“We
can’t she would never forgive us”
“There’s
not much of a choice if we want her back” Cordelia shrugged.
“WILL
SOMEBODY TELL ME WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?” Faith screamed
“We
can turn back time but she will still die” Willow answered
“So”
Jeff never took his eyes off Scott or Buffy
“The
only way she will survive is if she is turned”
“Willow”
Giles, warned
“I
don’t care we need her back Giles” the redhead answered.
“She
would never forgive us” Angel spoke from the counter
“You’re
forgetting something,” Spike said
They
all looked at him
“A
normal person turned dangerous. A Slayer?”
“The
Orb of Thessulah” Anya squeaked. “If it worked with Angel it would work with
Buffy right?” she looked at Xander
“I
suppose” Willow agreed “But where would we get one”
“There’s
one in the office” Cordelia walked into the room
“You
never know” she looked at Angel apologetically
All
the time Scott had been holding Buffy. She had gone before he had the chance to
tell her he loved her and wanted to be with her. She died thinking he choose
Lita over her.
He
didn’t care what she would become as long as he got to hold her again
“Do
it. I need her” he whispered
“But
what stops us doing the same thing again” Angel looked at Willow
“We
all recite the spell now and when the time is turned back we will be the only
one who remembers” she read from the book.
“Well
let’s do it” Spike walked over to Buffy
He
knew from experience not to get too close to Scott
“But
Buffy as a vampire would be wicked strong yes?” Xander looked around.
“So
how do we get her soul back.
“There’s
a cag..cage downstairs we could keep her in until Willow gets here” Fred
squeaked
“Good
idea now everybody stand around” Willow got into leader mode
Everyone
listened apart from Scott
“Where
do you want her Willow?” Jeff asked as he moved over to the pair
“In
the middle of the circle”
“Scotty”
he bent down “She needs to go over there” the older man looked up and nodded
before letting her go and standing beside Jeff.
Spike
picked her up and placed her in the middle of the circle before moving beside
Angel
“Who’ll
do it?” Faith asked
“What?’
“Who’ll
turn her?”
“Angel”
Willow shrugged
“NO”
Everyone
looked at Scott “Not him”
“I’ll
do it” Spike answered
“You
can’t when the time goes back you will be in Sunnydale” Angel argued
“It
has to be him Scotty” Jeff tried to comfort him
“Fine”
he growled “But touch her and I’ll kill you myself”
“Okay
here goes Willow looked at the book
“Lavender,
Mimosa, Holy Thistle
Cleans this evil deed from our mist
Scatter it's cells throughout time
Let this death no longer exist
To Unbind a Bind:
The bond which was not to be done
Give us the Power to see it undone
And turn back time to whence it was begun
“Did
it work?” Cordelia asked
The
smile on Angel’s, Faith and Xander’s face proved it had
Buffy,
Xander and Faith were walking towards the door and went outside
“Come
on Xander I’m not getting any younger” Buffy smiled at Faith. The two of
them were waiting on him unlocking the door so they could get in the car.
“Buf”
she turned and looked in the direction Xander was pointing and saw Lita standing
there.
“Give
me five minutes” she sighed and made her way over.
“Before
you start I’m holding up the flag” her sister smiled at her making Buffy
uneasy.
“I
thought about what happened and I want us to make up”
“Because
I threatened you” Buffy raised an eyebrow.
“Well
yeah” Lita smiled.
Buffy
honestly didn’t know what to say
“Please”
Lita smiled.
“Fine”
Buffy said and was about to make her way back to the car.
“Don’t
I get a hug?” she asked.
Deciding
to keep the peace Buffy went into her arms.
“Is
he ready” Faith looked over at Angel.
“Yeah
he’s coming out now” Xander smiled back at her.
All
they saw was a blur as Angel passed them
Faith
got out the car when she didn’t get an answer and made her way over to the
other girl.
Buffy
turned and smiled at Faith. Then the brunette felt a pain in her shoulder. She
looked down and saw blood on her shoulder.
“Now
Angel” she screamed
Angel
caught her before she fell and as his demon was already out he bit straight into
her neck.
When
he had took enough he bit into his own wrist and placed it over Buffy’s mouth
“Come
on Buffy please” Xander was holding onto Faith
Thinking
it was too late Angel was about to pull away
The
small hand grabbing latching onto him so she could drink stopped him
When
he felt himself start to get woozy he tried to push her away
“Faith”
he groaned and the other Slayer back handed Buffy knowing it was the only way to
get her off.
Luckily
enough it was hard enough to knock her out so Angel picked her up and took her
back into the hotel.
“Is
she okay?” Fred asked as he passed
“Yeah
he got her in time” Faith assured her
“Just
don’t go near her alone okay”
He
got her into the cell and locked the door
“I
suggest everyone get’s some sleep it’s gonna be a long night” he looked at
them all.
He
made his way up to his room but couldn’t sleep.
What
Scott said had got to him.
With
Buffy finally being a vampire she would become his. If he were her sire she
would do everything that she said.
But
it wouldn’t be his Buffy anymore
“Angel
wake up” Cordelia was prodding him
“What?”
he growled
“Your
creation is downstairs trying to make a hole in the wall”
“Buffy”
he jumped out of bed and ignoring everyone in his path ran down to the basement
“I
swear I will fucking rip you apart” Buffy roared gripping the bars
“Tough
talking considering your behind bars” Gunn swallowed
“Won’t
be for much…
She
stopped when she sensed the other presence and turned to see her sire coming
down towards her
“Hey
baby” she leered at him
“Come
to take care of business” she traced her fingers over her breasts
“Gunn
go upstairs now” Angel snarled his demon coming out
Knowing
from experience not to refuse Gunn ran upstairs
“So
you wanna play Buf?” he grinned
“With
you always now come in here and show me”
“No”
he walked away from the cage
“WHAT”
“That’s
not you in there that’s the demon”
“Fine
my ‘demon’ wants to give a message to your demon” she grinned
He
looked at her as she pulled her skirt up to show she wasn’t wearing any
underwear
“Come
in here and fuck me stupid Angelus”
He
knew he was fighting a loosing battle
Angel
or Angelus he always wanted her
‘Think
about it” she grinned
“You
and me together forever”
That
was it. The moment
He
fell to the ground screaming her name
“That’s
my boy” she smiled
He
finally stopped shaking
“Angelus”
she sang
“Will
you hurry up?” Willow yelled at Anya who was trying to run in her heels
“I
told you to….
She
looked around the hotel. Gunn was lying in a pool of blood hardly breathing.
Fred was shaking beneath the counter
“Where
the fuck have you been?” Faith came out of nowhere
“What
happened?” Giles asked
“Let’s
just say Buffy’s friend came out to play”
“Angelus”
Giles whispered
“But
how” Jeff was behind him
“Buffy
as a demon come on”
“That’s
okay we can still re-soul her” Scott nodded not wanting to admit what was
obvious
“Little
problem” Cordelia came out of the office
“Look
at your feet”
They
looked down and there underneath them was a shattered Orb of Thessulah
“We
are in serious shit” Xander paced
“I
guess” Jeff answered
“I
guess..’ Faith stormed over to him
“Angelus
is bad enough but a vampire Buffy I’d say we’re due for another
apocalypse”
