Please read this. I know for a lot of readers it's a hassle to read notes at a beginning of a story from an author, but at the very least read the rating and ship section. The disclaimer is always important as well, but more so to the companies and authors who created the characters than the fiction readers themselves. If you don't have the minute maybe two minutes to take to read through this section, at least skim through it so you know what's what.

A note from the author:
I have been out of commission on writing fan fiction for over 2 years now. So please bare with me as I struggle a bit to find my bearings inside the fan fiction world again. Of course reviews, of any kind, are always appreciated. If you happen to find any spelling or grammar mistakes that myself or my computer did not catch, please leave a review or send me a message with the chapter number (given at the top and bottom of each chapter on fanfiction . net), and let me know where the grammar/spelling mistake is.

Disclaimer:
My disclaimer has been and always will be the same for every fan fiction that I have ever and will ever write. I do not own the characters in my stories. They belong to the companies/authors/writers who created them. The plot line and any character you do not recognize is mine though. I am not receiving any money or endorsements from my fanfic.

Summary:
I feel as if the summary of a story always gives away more than the author realizes. But here's the summary for this story.
The whole entire gang is back together in one town with a couple of new surprises for each other. There's a new big bad to send back to whatever hell dimension it came from, but mostly just new vampires in town claiming to be all powerful and the new master vampire. Nothing ever really changes in Sunnydale right on the Hellmouth, except the people that live in it.

So let us go take a walk through the Hellmouth with 3 different slayers, 3 vampires each with their own stories of how they got their souls, a once crazy vampire that's now sane, a witch who tried like hell to end the whole world at one point, and a vengeance demon that is afraid of fluffy bunnies.

In Sunnydale the research is pretty much never ending, the questions are never completely answered, the high school needs rebuild almost every year, and there is really never a dull moment.

So let's go take a walk through the Hellmouth with our old friends and our new ones and see what happens while we're there.

Rating:
Most of my stories are for the more mature audiences. They will almost all have violence, strong language, and situations not suitable for anyone under the age of 16, possibly older. So parents, if your child happens to read one of my fanfics and you do not like the content in it, please do not blame me. The rating of my story is posted right here on this first page of the story. You son/daughter must click on the link for my story in fanfiction . net's story search or on my author page and then read this page and then move on to the next page where the story begins. Obviously I cannot monitor what each child reads, however I can, will, and do give fair warning about the rating of my stories.

Ships:
I don't find ships to be very important in a story. My plots are not based around who's dating who. The only stories I will write that have any slash in them at all are the BtVs universe, and that's only because Willow was a lesbian on the show, therefore, she gets wrote as one in my stories. I have nothing against slash writers, I have even read some very good slash fics. I just don't enjoy writing them if I have don't have to. If two of the characters wind up together in my fics, it won't be a forced into relationship that just kind of jumps out at you. It will take time, and probably many chapters to develop, just like any real life relationship would. Relationships do not happen overnight and so they will not happen that way in my fics. Spike and Buffy will not hate each other in chapter 2 and be dating and be couple of the year in chapter 3. Relationships just don't happen that way.

However if you care to know, if this one there will be some Spike/Buffy, Angel/Faith, Willow/OC, Anya/Xander.. There will be some other characters that will end up with other people, but I don't plan on ruining my whole story. =D

Point of view:
My stories never really stick to any one characters point of view. It will skip from one character to the next to let you know how that character is feeling at the moment. I have seen writers write their fics in the third person and never let you in on what the characters are feelings. You aren't able to see their faces as you can in a tv show or a movie, so you are unable to connect with the characters if the fic is written that way. When I read stories like that, I feel as if I should be watching a tv show or movie, because you're never let in on what the characters are actually thinking in tv shows. So to show that the point of view has changed in my story, you will see this:

Those 3 crosses with a line break above and below will show you that the pov has changed to another character.
