The Beginning

Prologue

They were gone, it was the thought that Willow could not shake, they had left her. Xander left for his drive from state to state tour, but she new he wouldn't be back. She had seen it in his eyes when he hugged her good bye.

Buffy and her mom had also left, moving to a new city to start a new life away from the Hellmouth. Giles had followed so he could still watch over her.

Then her parents had died, they were killed in an aeroplane crash on their way home from a business trip.

Even Cordelia had left, probably somewhere spending her parent's money. Angel had gone to find his redemption elsewhere.

So Willow was left alone. All alone. Well that wasn't true, Wesley was still there, he had been fired from the council for not looking after his slayers properly and then not returning when ordered.

She and Wesley had been working together now for several months, they had been successful in keeping the vampire population down. Wesley had also become a good friend to Willow.

Willow looked up from the bench where she was sitting and looked at the charred remains of her old school. Tears welled up in her eyes as she remembered all that she had lost over the course of only a few mouths, but she did not let them fall. She was tired of crying over things that could not be changed.

"AHHHHHHH!!!!" Willow's head snapped around to the direction the scream came from. She jumped up and ran to where she thought she heard it, as she rounded a corner into an alleyway she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

In front of her stood a very large demon, 8ft tall, green, with very sharp, very large spikes where his hands should be. Willow looked quickly around to see if there was someone near the demon that the scream might of belonged too, but she saw no one. The demons eyes turned to where Willow stood, realising she was now the centre of the demons attention, she turned to run, but the demon lunged at her, ramming his spike through her stomach. Willow looked down to where they were now connected; shock dulling the pain slightly.

Blood started pouring from her mouth as he lifted her off the ground, Willows vision became blurred as the pain flared through her body, she started to pass out as it all became too much for her to handle. With a growl the demon threw her through the window of an abandoned warehouse.

There, surrounded by shattered glass, Willow Rosenberg died.
