Consequences by Neil Vagg This is my very first fan fiction so go easy on me ok! The idea is that 99% of the story is told from Willow's POV during the closing episodes of Buffy season 6, but each time a major event takes place when the other Scoobies are around the story also takes in their reactions, basically Willow-centric with a dash of Scooby Gang. Hope you like it! ******************************************************************************************************* All of the characters in this story are owned by Mutant Enemy and Joss Whedon, this story also includes situations from the end of Buffy The Vampire Slayer season 6 plus my own situations. *******************************************************************************************************

Chapter 3

She grabbed Warren by the neck and lifted him up off the ground.
She could feel his neck slowly breaking in her hand but she still squeezed harder.
"Willow! STOP" Buffy screamed out to her, hoping to reach whatever humanity was left insider her friend, but there was none.
Suddenly one of Warrens every exploded out of it's socket, revealing only wires and computer chips.
"A robot!" Willow exclaimed, "That bastard fooled me. I could feel the essence inside this body…. Rack!"
Buffy breathed a sigh of relief that it wasn't really Warren and suddenly her and Xander fell to the ground with a thud. Willow had stopped the spell holding them in place.
"Look, you're angry... I... I am to. There's no excuse for what Warren did but that..."
"He shot Tara. When he shot you he hit her too, upstairs in my room. The last shot was the charm."
"She's dead?
"She's dead, now he's dead too." Willow said coldly
"Oh my god... Tara." Buffy exclaimed in shock
"Christ, will, why didn't you say anything?" Xander asked
"I've been busy..." Willow comments. She quickly disappeared in cloud of smoke, leaving Xander and Buffy to pick up the pieces after the bombshell about Tara.
"Oh my god Xander. Tara's dead. Warren must have hit her with one of the bullets meant for me" Buffy suddenly felt overcome with grief, but she also felt responsible in some way.
Willow could feel Buffy's regret for not stopping Warren earlier and it made her feel better about herself, but it still wasn't going to stop her. She could still feel Warren somewhere, but she wasn't sure where. Her power was starting to run a little low, so she once again stopped off at the Summer's house to do a locator spell.
This time she did take notice of Tara, who was now in a pool of blood.
"I'm sorry baby. He tricked me. It was a robot. But don't fear, I will find him."
She was beginning to sound more insane than angry. Willow collected ingredients that she had hidden in the house and not told anybody about, in order to locate Warren. She conducted the spell and a life force similar to the one she felt in the robot was moving fast through the woods.
Once again Willow disappeared in a cloud of black energy, determined to catch up with him. Minutes after Willow had left the room Dawn came stumbling into the room, falling over Tara's body. Finding the house totally empty Dawn had ventured towards Willow and Tara's room to see if they were still "doing spells" and all the she found was a corpse, nothing new there. Willow was watching Dawn's reaction in her mind.
"Finally that brat might shut her trap and let us get on with our lives" Willow giggled away at the thought of Dawn being distraught and on her own.
By this time Willow was already flying above the woods and she could see a figure below her running away as fast as possible.
"Warren" she sneered. She brought herself down somewhere ahead of his path. She could faintly hear him coming towards her, the insane grin on her face grew at the thought of vengeance and suddenly there he was.
Warren came from behind a tree and a look of shock filled his face. He screamed at the sight of Willow and tried to run in the opposite direction, but he had no luck. Without him noticing Willow had waved her hand over the ground that was now swallowing him.
"Why… why are you doing this?" it was obvious to Willow that he was very scared.
"Why do you think. You killed Tara. You took her from me and sent her to god knows where. They won't let me have her back so I'm afraid these are the consequences of your actions dear, sweet Warren." She walked closer to him and licked his face.
He seemed confused by Willows actions, was she coming on to him or trying to kill him.
"What are you going to do to me?" he said quietly. She paced around him for a few seconds. As she turned to talk to him he was gone. She turned quickly and he was once again running away from her.
She gave chase but was no match for his head start. He stopped to see if she was catching up but she was in fact gone. He turned back to run but there she was, right in his face. With that grin on her face.
He quickly muttered some strange language that even Willow couldn't understand and an axe appeared in his hand. He attempted to strike Willow but she moved out of the way. As she turned back to him he quickly struck again, leaving the axe deeply embedded in her back. Willow's body fell to the ground and Warren continued to run.
He got about 5 paces away when he was suddenly stopped again.
Willow's body had gotten up off the ground. "An axe isn't gonna cut it..." she quips.
He continues to run add Willow continues to give chase. "When is this boy gonna give up. He knows mommy's gonna catch up."
Then came a huge explosion. Willow had seen something flying around her head, it looked like a box but now it had exploded, a fireball began to engulf Willow.
"FREEZE!"
Suddenly the fireball turned to ice and smashed around Willow's body and she continued on walking.
"Mere party tricks aren't going to be enough to stop me" she thought to herself as Warren continue his futile attempts to get away from her. She knew she would catch him eventually and she felt that Tara knew it too.
Warren continued to run, looking behind him for signs of Willow's pursuit, he then turned his head back and ran into a pissed off Willow.
Warren slowly backed up, saying that it was an accident. "Oh, instead of killing my best friend, you killed my Girlfriend." Willow screamed.
Warren reached into his pocket for something whilst he turned to run, but Willow blasted him with a blast of lightning, that sent him to the ground.
"Catch this!" Warren shouted as he threw a round blob at Willow. It hit her and slowly enveloped her entire body in a clear fluid, but it wasn't going to stop her. Inside the blob time was moving slower for Willow and she could see Warren running off in slow motion. She began to use all her powers to melt the fluid from around her.
Her eyes began to glow orange like fire and the glow spread around her taking the fluid with hit. Once it was completely dissolved Willow fell to the ground, disorientated by the experience and also beginning to run low on energy. Once this was over it would be time to pay Rack a visit for a fresh burst of energy. Willow could feel the grief coming back to her once again and in desperation she screamed at Warren, he stared back in amusement.
"Is that all you got bitch. No wonder your little girlfriend was so easy to kill if you can only scream at me"
"That's it! This is over. REACH!"
The vines around Warren moved along the ground and held him tight, cutting off his circulation and stopping from getting away anymore.
