Spoilers: "The Gift" Season 5 Finale.
Authors Notes: Okay, here's the jist of this story. I watched the Season 5 Finale and cried (I'm a big softy, so sue me!). So I was thinking, and I came up with the idea of doing a POV from Buffy's perspective of dying. Okay not the greatest story plot I admit, and I know a lot of people (Including Me!) didn't want to see our favourite Slayer die, but this is my first go at writing fan-fic and I wasn't sure what to write about and that episode gave me an idea. So please don't hate me. And, yes, I know, it's a VERY short story, but it's only the POV of the last 5 minutes.
Dedication: To ¥enom. One of my closest, and dearest friends. She was the one who got me hooked onto watching the first episode of Buffy, and I am forever grateful. Oh and ¥, this might be one of the most saddest stories of mine you'll read, so don't blame me if it is sad!

The First Slayer said my gift was death, and I finally understood what she meant.
I looked towards the portal and saw a big dragon fly out of it. Then, I knew what I had to do.
I turned back and looked at Dawn, my sister. I realized the monks made her out of me. Key or not Key, she was a Summers.
Dawn stared at me, face stained with tears. "Buffy…no"
"Dawnie, I have too" I looked at her, knowing I had to close the portal. Dawn had told me it needed the blood of the Key to close. The blood of a Summer's. And that's what it was going to get.
"No!" Dawn cried.
"Listen to me" I said. "Please, there's not a lot of time. Listen".
I grab her hands, and begin to talk, trying to make her understand I have to do this. "Dawn, listen to me. Listen. I love you. I will *always* love you. But this is the work I have to do"
I pause. Thinking of my next words. I see Dawn sobbing, taking in my words, wishing it were she that is going to jump into the portal, and not me.
I wish Angel were still here. He'd find another way. God, I miss him. But that's just wishful thinking though. We can never be together.
"Tell Giles…tell Giles I figured it out. And, and I'm okay. Give my love to my friends. You have to take care of them now. You have to take care of each other. You have to be strong."
I begin to wonder if my friends are all okay. I love them all so very much.
"Dawn, the hardest thing in this world…is to live in it. Be brave. For me"
I smile weakly and kiss Dawn on the cheek. She starts to sob again. I turn, and run towards to portal, thunder crashing all around me. I knew if I didn't do this, this world, and many others would perish. I jump into the portal. Then it hit me. I felt my life being drained as the portal closed and destruction ended in my world. I close my eyes, and say a silent prayer for my friends. I soon know I will be with my mother, watching over everyone.
Then, the world goes black…
