This story is set 5 years after the final episode of Buffy and some of the storylines changed namely that Spike does not end up dust or end up at Wolfram and Hart, Buffy never declared her love for him plus Xander never lost his eye.
Chapter 1
The rain continued to pour from the sky, which was completely covered in black clouds that blocked out all sunlight making the town of London a haven for the vampire community. It was in this scene that the story unfolds, a small, slender, woman with long flowing blond hair was battling hard against a group of 10 or so vampires, being widely outnumbered the budding beauty knew that she had to escape somehow.
It was at this time that he appeared, he walked toward the scene engulfed in a perilous wind that surrounded his entire being. The sound of his footsteps causing the battle to come to a momentary stop, as both the vampires and the blond girl all looked to see the new arrival. He slowly reached behind his back and underneath his waist length leather jacket to reveal two matching Desert Eagle pistols. What happened next was a blur, he joined the battle against the vampires shouting for the girl to duck.
It didn't last long the stranger threw himself into the battle, spinning and whirling around firing in all direction, his specially designed bullets cutting through the air and embedding the wooden tips into the Vampires' hearts instantly turning them to dust. Within second the battle was over and the winds that had once surrounded the strange man died and eventually dissipated entirely.
The young woman was surprised when the stranger offered his hand to help her up, which she graciously accepted. Once upright she stared deeply into his silver coloured eyes wondering just how they became that way, suddenly he spoke to her but she didn't hear what he had said. "Huh?" was all she managed, "I said are you hurt?", she quickly replied "No, I'm fine...how, who...what just happened?".
Her blond hair fell to her shoulders, her body gleamed with perspiration from her own battle with the vampires. Her mind raced with possibilities of who the strange man could be but all she could do was stare into the silver orbs of his eyes. He slowly turned and began to walk away when she called out "who the hell are you?", but all he'd say in return was "just a friend." before vanishing into the darkness. A few minutes after watching the stranger disappear Buffy turned around and began the walk Giles's new apartment, he needed to know about this, they needed to research and find out exactly who this guy is.
"Wake up Buffy!" Buffy sprang to her feet ready to fight, then she noticed the entire Scooby gang looking at her. "Sorry guys must have nodded off.", "You can say that again, you're snoring distracted us from the research you should be helping with." came Paddy's typical smart ass remark and along with it a smack on the arm from Buffy. "Hey that hurt buff, I was only joking ya know"
They all laughed watching as Paddy made his way into the kitchen to get an ice pack for his arm so as to stop the bruising. "So any info on the mystery vamp killer then?" asked Buffy, "Most likely a revenge kinda' deal, came a voice entering the room, what's up pet worried about being replaced, hehehe". "Why don't you just shut your trap Spike who even asked you, just get your blood and leave will ya.", "Yes Sir, right away Sir!" spike shouted sarcastically giving a mock salute then left the room with his mug of blood.
"Damn vampire," Buffy muttered.
