A/N: This is my first Buffy fic. I know it may not be
very good but I tried. I usually write 7th Heaven fics but I wanted to try something new so here I am writing this. This takes place the morning after the season finale. I don't know if Dawn has any living relatives but in this she doesn't.

Part Of Me Died Too
Diary,
It's me Dawn again. I've been through more hell than most people will go through in their whole life. Last night my sister Buffy Ann Summers died. She jumped to her death to save the world. I should have jumped not her. She wouldn't let me though. She said death was her gift and she finally understood it. I get it but it isn't fair. Nothing in my life is ever fair so I don't know why I expect it to be. Too many people need her here. Even though I'm the reason this all happened she still wouldn't let me jump. She said it was something she had to do. Part of me understands why she did it. Part of me knows what it felt like to jump, to fly until that final moment. Part of me knows because part of me died too. They created me from her. We're connected and not just as sisters. I'm like her, like she would have been if she weren't the slayer. The Buffy part is dead, I'm just Dawn now. Just me Dawn, the last of the Summers. No more Dad, no more Mom, no more Buffy, just me. Alone in the world.
Dawn
