Title: The Dirtiest Girl Disclaimer: Still don't own them. What a bummer. Feedback: Yes Please. Summary: Takes place after "Dirty Girls." A deeper look into Caleb's seemingly euphoric trance when he sees The First as Buffy. Spoilers: Spoilers indeed.
The Dirtiest Girl
Caleb's POV:
"Look at me really." Implored Buffy/The First. "What do you really see?"

When I looked into those big brown eyes I saw it. Power. Strength. The kinda strength that only The Slayer could possess. Right then and there I was finally able to put a face on my salvation. She will be my greatest work. The purification of The Dirtiest Girl.

You see, while in her eyes I saw strength and leadership, I also saw loneliness. I saw the dull, black void that comes with that loneliness. I saw everything she was, and everything I was going to save her from.

Thanks to The First, the only Real Power, I know everything about Ms. Summers, from her liaisons with the undead to both of her resurrections, the last one being quite unwarranted.

You see I have taken it upon myself to rid the world of its unseemliness. To rid the world of it's Dirty Girls. And what better way to do that then to get rid of a girl that beds vampires and pushes her friends away. A "Champion of The People" who let's herself get played right into the hands of the enemy. A "Leader" whom is so self-righteous that she at times thinks herself better than her friends.

But no need to worry for her sins will find purity. A purity only I can bestow upon them. I will cleanse her mind, body, and soul of the numerous vices and lies she has allowed herself to be soiled with. I will end her heart's suffering and her soul's torment. Soon I will be able to save her from eternal damnation and set her on a path of righteousness and purity.

When I set the slayer free, truly free of her demons and unhappiness, then nothing will be able to stop me from doing this for the rest of the world. And by my hand your eternal salvation will be found.

Long after Buffy/The First leaves, I can still see those cold emotionless eyes. They've become my obsession, my ultimate goal. To see what little light is left drain from her eyes. They'll haunt me until I cleanse her of her sins. For all of mankind is dirty and I have been able to rise above it. To transcend man and find the only True Power there is.

Poor Buffy. Do you feel like the whore that you are? Sleeping with demons just to feel? Well I can make you feel. I tried to touch The First, just trying to touch the face of my salvation, but of course my hand went right through your image. But soon, Slayer very soon, I will leave your body completely purified.
