Disclaimer: I'll only say this once. I don't own B. t. V. S. Joss is god. I'm just a teenager that only owns her fanfics and her room.

Dedication: To Joss Whedon for creating the wonderful Spike. (Drools at Spike without shirt pic.)

A/N: This is the sequel to The Given Gift.

A/N2: '' means thoughts.

Spoilers: The Gift, Crush, and The Body.

            Buffy was happy. She was in heaven with her mom and Kendra so of course she was happy. The pros: no fear, no doubt, and no more slaying. The cons: no friends (except for Kendra), no family (except for mom), no Spike. Buffy was happy though. Then one day two months after she came to heaven the PTB brought her to them.

"You were the previous slayer in life and you need to go back to Earth."

"Why are you sending me to Earth?"

"A demon named Pineolatious has escaped from hell. You must go back to capture it."

'The name sounds like a cleaner.'

"Cool. So where am I going?"

"You're going to the hellmouth."

"So I'm going to Sunnydale."

"You shall only be seen by those closest to you."

"Great, send me home."

************************************************************************************************************

            Meanwhile back in Sunnydale the Scoobies and Spike are chasing after two vampires. Spike picks up a stake and dusted the girl vampire. The boy vampire was a strong cocky vampire that looked like he was 20. He grabbed Anya and held her close to him.

"Well, well, well looks like I found a pretty, little meal. Don't worry cutie, it'll be quick."

"Xander help. You're my boyfriend so save me."

"An, I'm trying."

            Then Anya broke out in tears.

"I want to live. I want to get married. I want my money."

"Listen girl, shut up. I want a happy meal."

            Spike felt something tap him on the shoulder. He turned around to see who or what it was and he saw Buffy. She kissed him on the cheek, put her finger up to her mouth and winked. Then Buffy picked up a stake and dusted the vampire that was holing Anya. Then she smiled in satisfaction.

"Miss me?"
