Roots

Don't own Buffy so You can't sue..thanks.

Summery; When the Key's hiding is no longer needed, Dawn begins to change back to her roots...



The buzzer of Dawn's alarm clock gave a shrill cry, as her hand slammed the clock's snooze button.

She turned on her side, pulling her blankets over herself.

"DAWN! GET UP!" Buffy screamed as she past the open doorway.

Dawn's head shot up from under the covers.

"YEAH, YEAH, I KNOW!"

She groaned getting up, and stretching a little. She straightened out her grey pajama tank and began her journey down the hall to her bathroom.

"DAWN!" Came Buffy's cry.

"I KNOW!" Dawn screamed back as she slammed the door shut behind her.

"Geez." She said angerly as she took her toothbrush from the holder and ran it under the sink.

"BUFFY I DON'T FEEL GOOD." She yelled hoping Buffy would let her skip.

"NICE TRY!" Buffy yelled from the next room over.

Worth a shot. Dawn thought as she tapped the brush against the side of the sink. She reached forward grabbing the toothpaste and gelling up the brush before bringing it to her teeth. She scrubbed boredly as she heard Willow rush down the hall muttering something about how phyc shouldn't be at seven in the morning. She spit into the sink, then began to brush again.

"DAWN, HAVE YOU SEEN MY MAROON TOP?" Buffy yelled.

"I THINK I SAW IT IN THE LAUNDREY ROOM." Dawn yelled back.

Morning never changed, yelling, Buffy unable to find her top then asking Dawn to get it....

"CAN YOU GO GET IT?" Buffy yelled.

Predictable.

"YES." Dawn replyed boredly as she ran her toothbrush under the faucet and placed it in the holder. Out the door she went, down the stairs, into the laundrey room.

As usaul draped over the railing by the entrance. She snatched it then ran upstairs. Dawb could hear the shower running from Buffy's shower. The brunette rolled her eyes making her way into Buffy's room, past her full length mirror and threw the shirt on Buffy's bed.

Dawn's forhead wrinkled in deep thought and backed up to face the mirror again.

She was in shock.

Dawn wasn't wearing her grey pajama bottoms. She wasn't wearing anything!

She had no legs, from her pelvis to her knee caps there was nothing.

"Oh my god." She whispered.
