A/N Wow ok so I'm not dead, but hey I caught my muse again for this story and managed to write this chapter. I don;t know when any future chapters will be written, but hopefully soon, though don't hold your breath for it, school makes me quite busy.
Disclaimer, see the prologue. Warning for extreme violence in this chapter, it is the answer to chapter six's cliffhanger.
Chapter Eight
As Spike walked into the crypt to call the demonic cleanup crew the door flies open framing one pissed off slayer.
"Buffy, you're here I was about to call you. I just got here and … "
"SPIKE, what the hell have you done to Riley, why is he dead on your doorstep? I knew you had something to do with all the soldiers death you are an evil monster and will always be an evil monster. I don't know why we ever thought we could trust you even with the chip. I can't believe you could do this how did you kill all of them get some demon friend to help or maybe Drucilla."
As she yelled Buffy advanced and began beating Spike, unable to fight back or get a word in he could do nothing but take the hit after hit from the enraged slayer. Finally Spike was pushed over the crypt in the middle of his crypt and was able to regain his footing enough to appeal to Buffy.
"Slayer, Buffy I didn't do anything I just got here and found him, I was just as shocked as you were I just returned from a game of poker ad was going to tell you the information I found out about the soldiers." As Spike spoke, he darted back and forth around the crypt trying to keep Buffy on the other side. "So there's a new demon in town who is getting revenge on the initiative for all those who were hurt. I uh heard from some other demons that similar surprises have been showing up at their places, I didn't do anything this new guy obviously knows about the chip and thought to avenge me for it. I didn't ask him to, I may not have liked soldier boy but I didn't kill him or anything like that slayer."
The game continued for a few moments until Buffy increased here speed and caught the now tiring Spike. As she attacked him, she knocked him on the floor and began pummeling him from her position on top of him. As she rained down blows she spoke "I don't care Spike what you did or didn't do this is all your fault, that Riley and the others are dead I knew you were involved somehow I knew it."
Spike tried pleading with the irrational girl to no avail she continued to beat on him, until she began to laugh. As she laughed she stood and before speaking again began to kick Spike as hard as she could hurting him even further in his prone position.
"Oh that's you fancy yourself in love with me, well let me tell you something vamp boy you are beneath me, you are not good enough to the scum beneath my feet. You may not have killed Riley or the others but its your fault you … evil undead fiend. Angel's a thousand times better than you could ever be, I should stake you, but you know what, I know how the chip gets to you, the initiative gave you a worse torture than staking ever would, an impotent unlife, you are a neutered vampire. But you know what no matter how hard you try, nothing can redeem you for your crimes now or those in the past, at the end of the day you're still an evil vampire and I hate vampires."
As she verbally flays Spike with cruel words she physically lashes out beating Spike further with all of her Slayer enhanced strength. After bruising, bloodying, and breaking Spike she leaves the defenseless Vamp bleeding on the crypt floor unconscious.
Fading in and out of consciousness throughout the day Spike's body was refusing to heal because of the lack of blood; small amounts of animal blood certainly can't keep a Vamp healthy.
At nightfall, a mysterious guest enters the graveyard heading straight to Spike's crypt with his latest gifts.
