Willow sat at the desk in the room she once shared with Tara, in front of her was the jacket which had caused so much trouble for the group. Between Dawn attempt at suicide, Buffy trying to kill principal wood, & Willow trying to turn R.J. into a girl, the power in the jacket could not be allowed to go on.
Quickly finding a book on enchanted objects, Willow was able to find the spell that would disenchant it. But as she was about to start, she came across a spell for transferring enchantments to other objects. Ignoring it at first, The magic addicted witch with so much Dark power flowing through her sat there, thinking of what she could do while she sat there talking to herself. "If I move the power into something else, I can tell them to burn the jacket while I keep the power. But why would I want it, I mean, I have been lonely I lost... tara."
"WILLOW." "Yes Buffy?" "Have you found the spell yet?" Turning to yell back through the closed door, she shouted back, "Give me a second, I think I found it." Taking a silver ring that she had once gotten as a present, she read from the Transference spell. "In eum novas navis ego impero eo vox" As she finished the incantation, a small red light moved from the jacket into her ring which glowed for a moment.
Picking up the Jacket, she opened the door & headed downstairs. As she got to bottom of stairs, she found everyone waiting, "I broke the spell, but we should destroy it, just to make sure." Buffy then took the jacket & threw it into the fireplace, "We can burn it right, I mean, it's not going to unleash some creepy pervert curse o us is?" "No, it'll burn." That being said, Buffy & Xander got a fire started & they all watched as it slowly burned.
While they watched the jacket that made women fall in love burn in the fireplace, Buffy & Dawn thought about the things they nearly did while Xander remembered what it had been like to have all the women in Sunnydale after him after he had Amy cast a spell that backfired. While all this was going on, Willow was thinking about what she had done. Okay, so I took the power, but I'm not going to use. I mean, if I needed to enchant people into loving me, that would just be sad. But I am lonely, & there aren't that many gay girls in this town, & I could always undo the spell afterwards, I can even make them forget. No, that's what pushed Tara away. But how many people remember the details of every night? No, I'll just go back upstairs, & I'll disenchant the ring... Buffy sure does look good next to the fire.
"Willow." "What, oh, sorry Xander, I got lost in my head, what did you say?" "I said, are you alright?" "Yeah I'm fine." "Are you sure, because you almost managed turned a guy into a girl." "I'm fine." "Okay, well I'm heading to bed." "Goodnight Xander." "We'll see." As Willow chuckled, Xander headed up to bed, before Dawn & Anya did the same. A few minutes later, Buffy got up as the fire died, "Well, I'm going to bed, see you in the morning Will." "Yes."
As Buffy was leaving the room, Willow looked down at her ring & whispered, "Buffy" After the ring glowed for a second, Buffy turned around at the entrance to the living room, "Or." Willow turned around to see Buffy undo the top button of her shirt, "You could come with me." As Buffy left the room, Willow quickly got up & followed.
