Summary: this is my idea of what should of happen when the gang tried to kick Buffy

Out.

"No!" Buffy says after Dawn says she needed to leave.

"What!" Dawn yells.

"No I won't leave. I pay the bills, I fought to keep the house and this is my home. If you don't want me with you then you can find somewhere new to live. I have been fighting for 8 years and you're no going to kick me out" Buffy says with her hands on her hips.

"You can't do this" Kennedy yells going into Buffy's face.

"Oh yes I can. You are no in charge here little girl" Buffy says.

"Well you're not either" Kennedy smirks.

"Your right. But you see, I have been at this for 8 years. Gain the respect of the demon and the mortal worlds even though I haven't got the respect of you. So unless you can think you can beat me step back" Buffy says pushing Kennedy back. Kennedy stumbles back a few feet.

"Oh I can beat you" Kennedy says launching at Buffy.

Buffy side steps the attack leaving Kennedy to crash into the wall. Buffy turns toward Kennedy preparing for another attack. Kennedy tries to tackle Buffy again. Buffy grabs her and throws her down to the floor. Then as she turns upward Buffy places her floor directly on Kennedy's chest.

"Now little girl. Do I need to put you over my need and spank you? I rather not it's a waste of my time. You see you're a spoiled little brat and you're used to getting everything you want but you see you can do that in war. What you all don't realize even the older ones in the group are that sacrifice and death is part of war. The deaths earlier even though they are regrettable are unenviable. War is not fun and games and some of you might die. But one of you after me and faith die will become a slayer. A champion and leader of good. And you alone will be responsible for the world. Now do you think you're ready for that? I had to be ready at 15 years old. All alone and scared. I have carried you; well you gave me up and no more. I will save this world and if I make it I am living away from you. That's that bye leave if you think I can't lead. If you think that I shouldn't leave and you can follow and trust me then stay. Buffy says to the group.

"Look I am going up stairs and taking a nice warm bubble bath and then I will come down stairs to see who stayed if anyone. Bye." Buffy says turning and walking upstairs with no turning back.
