The bus was cold and even though she had all of her friends there, it also seemed lonely. There was something missing and she couldn't quite put her finger on it. Kennedy had her head lying on Willow's shoulder and was softly snoring. How cute, Willow thought to her self. There's something weighing on her mind, but she couldn't put her finger on it. "Aww look, she's sleeping." Willow's struggle to remember was interrupted by her best friend's voice. "Oh hey Buff, What's up?"

"Well I can tell something is wrong and I wanted to come see what was up."

"I don't really know what's wrong. Something about letting Sunnydale turn into a big hole like that just makes me feel like I'm leaving something behind."

"Well I know my mom was buried back there, and Tara, but I don't know what you would have left behind."

"Oh my Goddess, Buffy that's it, Tara was left behind back there, and Anya, and Joyce, and—'' Willow burst into tears. She walked up to the front of the bus to Giles and asked him to turn around.

They were 6 hours away from Sunnydale and that gave Willow time to think about what she was going to do. When they arrived, Kennedy was shocked that they had returned to this place. "What the hell is going on here Willow?"

"Tara! She was buried here and I gotta bring it back, she can't be laying there at the bottom of a hole and—'' Willow fell to the ground in a hysterical cry.

"God Willow, can't you just accept the fact that she's dead? I'm what you have now, so just get over her."

"O.k. Kennedy when I'm amazed at your brattiness, you know you've gone way too far." Dawn stepped between Kennedy and Willow. "If Willow wants the last remaining piece of Tara she had left to come back then I think she should try it." With a growl, Kennedy stomped back onto the bus.

"Willow, just how are you planning on doing this exactly?" Giles asked her.

"Just watch." Willow walked over to the edge of the gaping hole that was once called Sunnydale California. She mumbled something in Latin and everyone watched in awe as they watched a light come from the sky. It was like it was everything was on rewind. The fallen Sunnydale sign came back and slowly everything came back. Willow fell to the ground in an exhausted, crying heap. The first to reach her was Buffy. "Willow, you ok?"

"Yeah Buff," Willow said with tears rolling down her face. "I just know that the Hellmouth isn't there but there's something a little different. I just couldn't tell you what."

Buffy shot a concerned look towards the others and helped her friend up off the ground and to the bus. Giles cautiously drove the bus back into Sunnydale and up to 1630 Rivelo Drive. Willow jumped off the bus and ran to the graveyard. Kennedy tried to stop her but Dawn stepped in her way. "Leave her alone Kennedy she needs this."

When Willow got to the graveyard she went to the spot that seemed all too familiar to her. But to her surprise, the grave wasn't there. Tears came into her eyes and she ran back to the house.

"Willow is torn all to pieces. What's up Buff?" Xander asked.

"I don't know Xander. But I'm gonna run to the graveyard and find out, call my cell if she comes back down stairs."

"Sure will."

Buffy ran as fast as she could to the graveyard. She found her moms grave, she thanked God that Willow had returned everything like it was, but not so far away she noticed the empty spot where Tara's grave was supposed to be. "Oh my God, I know why Willow was so upset." Buffy hurried back to the house and ran up to Willow's room. "Will, I went to the graveyard and I saw what happened. I'm so sorry, I…I don't know what to say about it really."

"It's O.K. Buff, I knew something like that would happen."

"Yeah and I know every spell has a consequence so I'm prepared to fight what ever bad there is."

"Yeah I'm gonna have Giles call the coven and see if they can find out what that will be."

"Okay. Go on Will, you and Kennedy need to get some sleep like the rest of us."

"Yeah well I don't think Kennedy is gonna talk to me for a while." Willow flashed a weak, sad smile as she snuggled against her pillow and closed her eyes.

Buffy made her way to her room and got in bed, only to be disturbed by Dawn wanting to know if she and the other slayers could go to a different house. Being sleepy and all, Buffy didn't argue, she just wanted to sleep.
