doc was standing infrount of dawn with the knife. "shallow cuts, shallow cuts" he said. Dawn was quivering. everything hurt. her blood was dripping opening the portal to hell. she saw her life flash before her eyes as spike was thrown off the thin bridge that made a pathway to the ledge she was tied to.she saw her 7th year old birthday. she saw buffy and her mother. as her life passed before her she found herself having a revelation. she wasn't real. none of her memories were real and until up to 6 months ago she had been a glowing green thing. she started to weep from anger and pain. Her life had been a lie. she had wept at her mothers death, but in truth joyce summers hadn't *really* been her mother. sure in their memories dawn was their friend,family or sister. but it wasn't true. None of it. she forced her tears to stop and they obeyed her command and abated. she saw buffy throw doc from the tower. "buffy" she whispered. Buffy released dawn from the ropes that bound her. "Come here Dawn" Buffy said. dawn sniffed and hugged Buffy with as much strength as she could muster. then she stepped away. Buffy looked at her with confusion in her eyes. "dawn?" dawn looked away from buffy's loving gaze. It wasn't really love, she reminded herself. It was only the memories making her feel that way. Dawn looked at the portal. "I have to go" she said. buffy frowned. "We all have to go" she said not understanding dawns meaning.
dawn started to stare at the portal now. "I can stop it, my blood can close it" Buffy understood suddenly and it shocked her. then she remembered the first slayer.'your gift is death'She hadn't understood then now she realised that Dawn's blood was her blood. Her gift was death........her own death. in which made her gift life. Buffy shook her head at dawn. "No dawn. I will jump Its not just your blood, its our blood....summers blood" Dawn shook her head. she couldn't let buffy die for someone who wasn't real. no- body wanted or needed dawn. they needed buffy the slayer. she didn't think she could stand letting buffy jump.she wouldn't be able to handle the looks that she got from the scoobies. she couldn't survive the look that said I wish you had died instead of buffy. dawn smiled at buffy then picked up the hilt of the knife and smashed it over buffy's head. as buffy passed in and out of consiousness dawn kissed her on the forehead.
whispering like the wind that she loved her dawn walked to the edge of the platform. the portal was large but nothing had yet ventured out of it. dawn took one last breath and prayed silently for some form of salvation but none came.
She looked at spike fighting and whispered her goodbyes and that she would always love him. Somehow he heard her and turned to face her. she couldn't bear his ice blue eyes for another second. she closed her eyes the remaing tears leaving her heart forever. then she jumped. it was exilerating.The air was rushing past her then there was light and pain. a scream was frozen on her lips as the portal closed and she fell. Hitting the ground. spike rushed to her battered body. "Nibblet!! talk to me Nibblet" Dawn remained still. Spike gentally hugged her body to him rocking it ever so slightly.
Buffy regained consiousness. The first thought that came to her mind;dawn. she ran to the stairs to see spike hugging dawns body. her heartbreaking scream of pain shattered everyones hearts. "noooooooooooooooooooooooo"
buffy shrieked becoming hysterical "no no no no no no no no no no no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DAWN" spike held dawn's body closer trying to will her alive. willow and tara sobbed into each others shoulders whilst Xander cried into anya's blouse. giles wiped away a stray tear. this is what he had suggested. he had wanted her to die to save the world. he hadn't really wanted it but he had suggested it and now that it had happened all he could feel was pain, violent and ripping at him. he hadn't felt this way since jenny.
they buried her body the next week.
and on her tombstone read:
Dawn summers
1887-2001
Beloved,friend, daughter and sister
she saved us all
Spike watched her as she was buried. His grief took so much out of him. One night he decided it was time to say goodbye.
He walked to her grave. "Goodbye lil bit" he left as silently as he had come leaving naught but a kiss and a bundle of sweet smelling asters. The asters calls echoed into the night.
goodbye goodbye
My heart is torn to pieces,
i know you had to go.
i'm screaming out i'm sorry
you leave and i will follow
hear me, see me just god don't deny me
watch me writhe in angony beneth you,
My only hope my only wish oh can't you see?
I want you to love me like you used to
and as you cry beneth my feet
my heart is filled with woe
my heart of snow has turned to sleet
my love became my foe.
hear me, see me just god don't deny me
watch me writhe in angony beneth you,
My only hope my only wish oh can't you see?
I want you to love me like you used to
Tears of my blood i cry on my pillow
you can't hear me from under the ground
I guess 200hundred feet are too low
Why can't my heart thats lost be found
The End
For a sequel (you want Dawn resserected)
