This is my first, so please bear with me. I would prefer a clean review please, yet tell me what you think of it. ENJOY! (I don't own Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
Willow watched the window with no interest. She had no feeling anymore. She just didn't feel alive. She hadn't eaten much, and was getting very thin. She hardly slept at all the nightmares would come every night. She would see him, crystal-clear. She would see his red hair, his deep, loving, green eyes. She could fell his arms around her. She would know he was there, even his smell.
Just before she would wake, however, Willow would see him leaving again and again. Every time it would hurt just as much as the first. At first he would leave with a great pain in his eyes, then the pain would be less, and now he would leave with a smile. Willow would wake with a searing pain in her chest, like he had burned her heart out before he went.
Willow heard her roommate, and good friend, Buffy, come in. She plopped down next to Willow with a serious expression, "Will, I know how you feel, but it's been four months since Oz," Willow flinched, "Left. You need to get out and move on. I know it's hard, but you have to get back on the horse," Buffy frowned slightly in thought, "Who came up with that anyway? That's going to bug me all day."
Willow hardly even heard her. She had no intentions of going anywhere. She just stared at the window, not seeing it. Buffy let out an exasperated sigh behind her.
"Will, you can't keep waiting, he wouldn't want you to. I know he said he'll come back when he can control it, but I don't think that's even poss-"
"Buffy, I don't know what you're talking about. I'm not waiting for him to come back. I'm just not ready yet," She looked at Buffy with sunken eyes, "I can't just let go and move on, I can't… I can't…"
Buffy nodded, "Yeah, I know it feels that way, but you can't just sit here the rest of your life. You need to at least live a little. I'm not saying get back into the dating game right away, just to not waste away here."
Willow looked down at the floor, then back at her friend, "Can I go patrolling with you Buff?" She couldn't go to the Bronze, not with the band there, playing without Oz. She could do with some action; It might help for a little while.
Buffy grinned, "Yeah, let's go dust someone. There's nothing like a little ash party to get you in a good mood. Let's get Xander, Anya and Riley, It'll be fun," She had a little excitement about her pretty face. Her blond hair seemed to glow when she said Riley's name.
Willow offered a weak smile, "Yeah, fun," As if she could actually think of fun again.
Xander and Anya couldn't make it because they were on a date, and Riley had too much work on his hands to come. So the ash party was out. Willow walked next to Buffy with a distracted look about her. Buffy was worried, as she usually was lately. Willow's just been lifeless since Oz left. Buffy know his reasons for leaving, but that didn't make it any better. She just wanted to hate Oz for hurting Willow so much. Buffy had never seen her like this.
Buffy knew what it was like to lose someone you love because he was a supernatural creature, and it hurts beyond imagining. She still couldn't think directly about Angel without it stabbing her in the heart. This was why she couldn't rightfully tell Willow to just get over it, because Buffy herself had been the same way.
Buffy heard a strange noise, and stopped Willow, straining her ears. She felt a strange prickling behind her and spun around, nothing. Willow wasn't reacting much at all, just looking around. She had a plain expression on her face, which worried Buffy.
Buffy felt it again and spun around, she could have sworn she heard a soft chuckling, but wasn't sure. Now she felt something touch her! Angry now that she couldn't see her opponent, Buffy began fighting nothing. Willow was beginning to realize something was up and became more alert.
Growling in frustration, Buffy stood still, listening, just like when she fought the invisible girl whose name she couldn't remember at the moment. She listened hard, hearing nothing, NOTHING!
"Will run!" She shoved her friend hard to get her moving.
Shocked, Willow stumbled at first, but soon got up quickly. She bolted no particular direction, but at least she went. Buffy stood still so she could maybe feel the monster that was messing with her. What the HECK? She spun around, bewildered, where did it go? Then she had a terrible realization, it drained the blood from her face, Willow!
Willow ran and ran, not knowing what from, not knowing where to, she just let legs carry her. Willow knew that if Buffy was afraid, this thing must be bad. Willow started running into things, tree branches whipping her face, scratching her.
Out of nowhere, Willow hit something hard. She fell, landing on her back. She looked around, trying to figure out what she ran into, but there was nobody, nothing. Feeling a frantic dread in her, Willow rolled onto her hands and knees, the rocks beneath her cutting into her soft palms. She felt fear well up in her chest and throat. She looked around, but all she saw were the shapes of trees, which looked oddly threatening. She was suddenly knocked down to the ground again, it felt like a kick. Then she heard a chuckle. This chuckle sounded very soft and very non-human. This was not good.
Willow was on her back again, and suddenly her wrists had a hard pressure on them, like someone was holding them down and leaning on them. Willow swallowed back a whine, she felt dread deep in her. This thing was invisible, and silent!
Willow heard a very deep, demon sounding voice, "You are a weak, pathetic human. You have hopelessness and sadness inside you. You feel lifeless."
Willow was bewildered, "How do you know that?" She said before thinking.
The deep voice answered "Because I can feel it. Now I am going to tell you, if you scream, I will kill your little friend who is looking for you right in front of you, very slowly." Willow felt one of her wrists release and she tried to pull her other free, but now she had both hands caught above her head with one hand. Oh, what will I do now? She thought quickly, seeing no way out.
Out of nowhere, the invisible demon was knocked off of her, she could tell because of the force of is release. She looked up, but the sun was long gone from the sky. She couldn't see anything. She saw a bundle on the ground, wrestling with nothing. Buffy?
Willow jumped up to help, and the person was flung off of the invisible demon, hitting a tree hard. Willow was now doomed, she couldn't see it! The person attacked it again, actually hitting it! Willow couldn't figure it out. Felling useless, Willow wrestled with herself, whether or not to help. She couldn't see the thing, but this person could. Riley maybe?
Willow heard a sickening sound and the person rolled off of the demon, panting. Willow was frozen for a moment, then ran to the person, hoping to help. She arrived to her exhausted savior, and froze.
Come on everyone, who is it? Who is it?
I hope you enjoyed it, please tell me how I can do better!
