CHAPTER 1 : Alone
She was there. Alone. Sat on a pavement (sidewalk) somewhere out of Sunnydale. He had left her. Angel, the love of her life, only for her, Buffy. They were everything one for the other but he left, leaving her alone with her pain. But why ? Nobody knew it.
She wasn't crying but we could see the pain on her face. She didn't really know where she was herself but it didn't matter and she didn't care. She had taken a bus and then walked for hours and didn't say goodbye to her friends before leaving. She didn't know when she was going to come back and if she was going to come back to Sunnydale one day, town of slaughters, town where she lost her mother… and Angel.
Angel left a few days ago without telling anything to Buffy. He didn't even call her, no contact since he left. She went to his house yesterday and all his things weren't there anymore. That how she know he was never to come back. He ofter told her how hard it was for him to have to resist to his impulses otherwise he would lost his soul again and would become again the terrifying Angelus, bad vampire, thirsty of fresh blood, who destroys everything on his way.
The only thing she wanted now is to be alone, to think in the quiet, far from vampires and other demons. Even if this is rarely possible. In Sunnydale you're forced to live with them but in the place she's right now everything seem quiet for now.
It was the evening, it was quite dark. She didn't know how many times she's been sitting there. Nobody was walking down this street.
She'd like to give up her slaying activity but she knows she can't. Though she died twice and for the second time her friends are the ones who resuscitated her. She's bored with all of this. She'd like to have a normal life, like every 20 year old girl. But that's impossible because she's the chosen one, the only one, the vampire slayer. It's her duty to protect the world and God knows how good she is at doing it. She vainquished so many vampires and other demons we couldn't count. Without forgetting all the times she saved the world.
- I just would like some holiday that's not too much to ask ? I kill vampires and other demons everyday, I'm bored. I don't have a life anymore, Angel left and I feel like my heart is tearing. That hurts ! I love him more than everything and I know him too, so why did he go ? And without telling me anything !
(several minutes of silence).
At that time a shadow appeared behind her, but Buffy didn't notice. She's drawn into her thoughts.
Buffy still talking to herself :
- Come on Buffy, you're strong, don't be sad of your life, there's worst ! But why am I doing here? I don't even know where I am ?
