Armageddon
Magic box
Spike and Dawn rushed in. "Guys," she screamed
They all turned towards them. "Spike," Willow said. "What are you doing here? Did you not get the message the first time?"
"Look it isn't like that." He answered in defense.
Xander came over to swoosh him out the store. "Damn it! Get out."
"Damn it!" Dawn screamed. They all turned to her attention.
Willow rose up. "Dawn? What's wrong?"
"My mom," she said crying. "It is my mom, Spike was helping me find Buffy."
"What is wrong with Joyce?" Xander asked.
"We were attacked." She said, "I think they hurt her."
"Let's go."
Buffy's house
She laid there on the couch with her mom in her arms. "Mommy, please come back." She said with tears constantly rolling down her eyes. "Mommy!"
She rubbed her hair. "Mommy,"
The door burst open. "Buffy!" Willow screamed.
They all made their way into the living room. "Oh poor Buffy," Willow said taking her into her arms.Willow made her way into the kitchen to call for an ambulance.
Dawn then saw her mom. "Mom!" she said falling to the floor. Shaking and crying. "Oh god,"
"Spike," Xander said. "Please go, I know you mean well but Buffy may not want to see you."
"No!" Buffy said getting out of her seat. "Thanks," she gave him a hug. "A lot"
Mansion
The gates of hell opened. Demons poured out. A tall horned demon rose out. Then his minions.
"Lord Algaterth," the winged minion said.
"Yes," he said coldly.
"When are we going to make this a demon dimension?"
"Soon," he said. "First we need the sacrifice."
"Yes,"
Hospital
Buffy went to the hospital. She lay her head on Giles's stomach. She was in sobs. "Please wake up," she cried. "I need you now more than ever."
His heart pace picked up. A nurse came in and pushed Buffy out of the way. "Is he ok?"
"Yes he is going to be just fine." The nurse said smiling.
A few hours later...
Buffy's home
"Who did this?" Buffy screamed.
"A vampire," Spike said.
"Ya think?" Xander said.
It had been a few moments after they took Joyce's body out to the morgue.
"Mom!" she said again holding up the picture of her, Dawn, and her mother together."Why would she let a vampire in?"
"Maybe she didnt know," he suggested.
Dawn got up and said "He said he had information about the slyer."
Oh god, this is my fault, Giles," she said. "Find me who did this." She walked over to him. "Find them!"
He headed for the door. "I will, but of course I did just get out of a coma."
"Well I was in a coma before I know what your dealing with." Willow said. "I still don't see why you forced them to let you out so soon?"
"I am needed as a watcher and a friend."
Tara walked over and gave Buffy a hug. "Thanks, Tara," she said "Dawn?"
They looked around but no Dawn.
"Oh god," Willow said
"She couldn't have run off." Buffy said as she got her coat and headed for the door. "Look the routine isn't that old look all the same places as before."
Park
At the merry-go-round, Dawn stood there remembering the time when they first moved to town how her mom rented it and they rode it for a while. "Mom!" that is all she could muster up to say.
Buffy came up behind her. " I didn't have to look far."
"I wasn't running away." She said, "I just needed to cope,"
"I know we all have to,"
Thunder clapped behind them. "Another sky quake."
"Yeah," she said, "Hell is breaking loose. I think we should go home."
"Yeah," she said taking her sister's hand. "We should."
Magic box
The gang was in full research mode. When Buffy and Dawn walked in. they opted not to go home just yet.
"Buffy!" Willow said rushing giving her a hug.
"Hey," she said then paused. "Guys,"
"So Dawn is you ok?" Xander asked giving her a hug.
"Yeah I'm cool." She said taking a seat. "So what do me and Buffy slay?"
"Me and Buffy?" Buffy asked astonished, yet amazed. She walked over to her little sister. "You don't have to find anything, I got it covered."
"Yeah," Dawn said.
"So what do I slay, Giles?" Buffy asked.
"I don't know." He said flatly.
"Can you give me anything?" she asked.
"Yeah in this newest prophecy book the council gave me does shine a bit on the apocalypse. It does say that a demon god will be set on earth."
"Glory," she said getting out of her seat.
"No not her," he said "it is a demon with great power not shown here on earth. It is a demon who was referred to as a god and was worshipped."
"Oh," she said, "What is its name?"
"Algaterth," he said
"Ok find its location and I will kill It." She said getting up.
Willow jumped out of her seat. "I found it,"
"What?" Xander asked confused.
"A picture of this Alga- whatever," she said showing them.
It was huge almost seven feet. It had horns sprouting out of each side of its head. It had claws that were almost like talons. Bloodstained eyes, and wore armor.
"So how do we kill it?" Xander asked
"I don't know," Willow answered. "It is very powerful. It can take your soul and lives off your essence."
"Ok," Buffy said "I don't give it my essence." She then looked at herself. "Do I have essence?"
"Yeah, I think so." Xander tried to make things a bit better.
"Well it is still bad." She said bursting into sobs. "Maybe the reality hasn't hit me but it still hurts....so bad."
"Everything will be ok," Willow said patting her on the back.
"I hope so," she said taking Dawn into her arms.
The door opened. "Dad!" Dawn said running to him embracing him in tears.
"Honey," he said as Buffy wrapped around him.
"Oh dad," Buffy said again embracing him in tears. "It hurts so bad."
They left out together. "Guys I will be back. Find out some useful stuff by the time I get back, k?"
Buffy's home
They sat in the kitchen. The funeral home contacted them and they started making arrangements. Dawn could not stand it. She rushed to her room. Hank talked to them in person as they paid a visit to the house.
Buffy strolled into the living room. She glanced at the couch. //flashback; seeing her mom on that couch, dead//
"Oh god." She said bursting into sobs once again. She sat on the couch. Grabbing the pillow. She tossed it. Then pounded on the couch. She beat on it taking out all of her pain. It sat there on the ground totaled. The person from the funeral home left out. "Honey what happened?"
"Dad," she said. " I don't know,"
They hugged. Dawn looked down. "Did I do this." She said walking down the stairs. "Did I? Is this some type of key side effect?" she asked confused.
"No honey," Buffy said embracing her.
"What is a key?" their father asked confused.
"Nothing," Buffy said. "I got to go, I will be back soon."
Magic box
"Hey," Buffy said strolling in.
"Hey, we found something big." Willow said.
Buffy took a seat. "A guy was killed tonight. His eyes were pulled out of its sockets. It says in the book, he wants to rise the first."
"The first? The first what?"
"The first evil." Willow said. "To do so it needs a few things. Eyes and a few other things. But the biggest sacrifice is..."
"Is what?" Buffy asked
"The slayer, it needs the slayer dead."
"Oh," she said, "I can't let this happen."
"Buffy, I don't know how we are going to stop this." Giles said.
"Well you don't know a lot of thins as of late, do you?" she said then she went sad again, "I'm so sorry."
"It is okay. And you are right I haven't been much of a help."
"It is because of you coming out of coma," she said giving him a hug. "There has been a big sale in these." She said.
"What?" he asked
"Hugs I have been giving them out all day." She said
"Then let me join in on the action." Xander said.
They made a group hug with Anya and Tara joining in. then they all broke apart.
"So this first evil," she said "How do we stop it?" Xander asked.
"I know only one way." Buffy said. "The thing that fought the first evil."
"Which is what?" Anya asked.
"The first slayer."
