A while back, BellaVision (Profile: .net/u/2013907/ ) got in touch with me, requesting that I write a Buffy/Spike fanfiction.

"1) In S7's episode "Touched", Buffy and Spike will magically be transported
through the Mirror of Time to a place similar to them both. They will go back
to Season 6 and right during the past Buffy's beat down of Spike in "Dead
Things." Future Buffy will blame the other her and will hate her for all of
the things she herself had done to Spike. She will fight herself in that same
alley."

The story that follows has been tweaked obviously, from the original idea but hopefully what I've got so far is satisfactory.

As to the characters mentioned, I own none of them. I make no profit from this story (or indeed the Buffyverse) whatsoever and yes, BellaVision has the right to do with it as she wishes. :)

The Immortal storyline touched on in Basic Mechanics_Volunteer is a part of the Angel universe and was expanded on in Nancy Holder's story Queen of the Slayers – this is where I've taken the idea that Buffy became 'Queen' from. Check the book out, it's definitely worth the read.
