TG: This is my reaction to Nocte's challenge on Crumbling Walls. (I'm not sure if it's still up but if not this is going to be something I've been thinking of putting up a response to.) I'm mostly writing it, but SuperChic's writing some of it with me.

            Buffy walked out of the Double Meat Palace. She was wearing a red tank-top and leather pants.With Mr. Pointy in her hand she walked to the cemetery. She saw Spike fighting a group of demons. Buffy ran to help him.

"Spike, you should have learned not to pick fights by now."

"I didn't pick the fight Love, the damn fight picked me."

"Yeah right. I bet you were just going to go look for me so we could talk or…"

"No, I was going to go see my Nibblet 'cause I haven't since you came back."

"Okay, how much do I actually believe that?"

"Love, right now's not the time to fight." Spike said while wrestling one of the demons.

"So, you actually were going to be with Dawn?" Buffy called to him when one of the demons grabbed her.

"Pet, not right now."

            The demon held Buffy so she couldn't move. He grabbed Mr. Pointy. Buffy got out of his grasp and kicked his head and he fell over dead. She went to get Mr. Pointy and the head demon got it first. He spit on her. Then she punched him and he fell over dead. Or so she thought. He got up and pushed her over to another of his cronies and got Mr. Pointy. He went up to Spike and pushed it through his chest right into his heart.

"Spike, I…I…I love you." Cried Buffy right before Spike turned to dust. She kicked the demon that was holding her, picked up Mr. Pointy, and ran home crying her heart out.
