Tyr scoffed. "That's your Hell God? I thought she'd be a lot scarier."

"Trust me," Buffy said, solemnly, "she is."

Tyr rolled his eyes and fired at Glory. The blast hit her square in the chest and knocked her backwards onto the ground. "There, now can we go inside and get back to..." He trailed off as Glory got up and brushed herself off. She didn't have a scratch on her.

"Okay, now I'm annoyed," she said, resuming her march towards them. Randall held back.

"Get back inside!" Tyr commanded Sarah, pushing her toward the door. "Get that machine working. Now!" Sarah nodded and ran for the door.

Dylan and the rest ran up, drawn by the sound of Tyr firing. They all began firing on Glory at the same time, but without much effect.

Sarah slammed the door shut and ran to the computer.

"Hey," Spike said. "What's going on out there? It sounds like bloody Armageddon."

"Glory," was all Sarah answered before typing furiously on the computer.

"Bloody hell!" Spike exclaimed. He grabbed a chair and put it under the door. "Hey princess," he yelled to Susan who was still sitting in a corner, "Get off your ass and help me barricade the door." Together, they dragged everything that wasn't bolted down in front of the door. Meanwhile, Sarah was minutes away from reversing the warp.

Suddenly, a section of the wall flew was ripped away. Susan screamed and Spike yelled in pain as the room filled with sunlight. Sarah turned around slowly. Glory was standing silhouetted in the new door she'd made. "Honey, I'm home," she said stepping into the building. Randall followed, smirking.

He pointed to Sarah. "That's the girl I was telling you about."

"Good," Glory said, she started toward Sarah, but stopped as she caught sight of Spike. "You," she snarled, grabbing him and lifting him off of his feet with one arm, "out!" She threw him through the opening. "Now where were we?" She turned back to Sarah. "Oh, right. Now, Randy here tells me that you can open portals to other dimensions, is that true?"

Sarah gulped and nodded.

"Great! I'd like you to return me to my own dimension. Can you do that?"

Sarah nodded again. "Yes, I've been trying to do that for the past hour. All I've got to do is-"

Glory grabbed her around the neck. "No! I don't mean the dimension I just came from, I mean MY DIMENSION. The one I lived in before I was banished to the pitiful mortal world."

"Oh," Sarah said. Over Glory's shoulder, she saw Susan running toward the opening in the wall. She had to keep Glory and Randall distracted. "Well, it'll take a lot of recalibrating. Um, it might take me a day or two."

Glory put her down. "Baby doll," she whirled and grabbed Susan by the hair just as she reached the opening, "I've got all the time in the world. Now, who's this?"

"Ow!" Susan screamed. "Let go of my hair!"

"That's her older sister, Susan," Randall said.

"Really? Hmm. How about this, Sarah, you get me to my own dimension, no tricks, or I snap your sister's neck. Sound fair?" She didn't wait for an answer. "Good, get to work."

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

Sarah had been working for two hours. She'd been trying to figure out a way to trick Glory and send her back to the Buffy universe, but with Randall watching her every move like a hawk she hadn't been able to do a thing. Sarah shot a glance toward Glory, who was sitting in a chair against the far wall with Susan on the floor next to her. "You know," Sarah whispered to Randall, "she's just going to kill you when she gets what she wants."

"No, she's going to kill you and your sister when she gets what she wants. Me, she's going to leave alone," Randall replied.

"What do you get out of this?" Sarah asked.

"I get to see you dead. You know, all my life I've been second best. You always managed to one-up me. In the science fair, in math quizzes, in the spelling bees, you always beat me. It's not fair! I'm better than you. And I've finally managed to prove it! *I've* beat *you*! And with your own invention, too." He smirked. "It's kind of poetic."

While he had been talking, Sarah had been typing. She had only to type in the last command and the warp would be reversed. Unfortunately, Randall looked at her screen.

"Hey!" He grabbed her arm. "She was trying to double cross us," he said to Glory.

Glory shook her head and pulled Susan up. "Big mistake, girl." She grabbed Susan around the neck. "Now, I have to kill your sister. And you get to watch."

"No!" Sarah tried to run forward, but Randall grabbed her.

Suddenly, Buffy and Spike appeared in the doorway. Behind them were Dylan and crew. "Don't you people ever give up?" Glory demanded, throwing Susan aside.

"No," Dylan answered, firing his force lance at her. This time, instead of a regular bullet, Glory was hit with some kind of electrical net. She collapsed to the floor, twitching from the voltage.

Sarah stomped Randall's foot and spun around, punching him in the jaw. "Ow!" He fell to the ground. Sarah dashed back to the computer and finished the command.

The warp generator whirred to life. "What did you do?" Glory demanded.

Before, Sarah could answer, Glory was sucked out of the building, along with Buffy and Spike. "Get back to the *Maru*," Sarah said to Dylan and the rest. "I'll slow the reversal rate, to give you some time."

"Thanks," Dylan yelled as they took off into the trees.

Ten minutes later, the *Eureka Maru* returned to its own dimension along with its crew. Sarah let out a sigh of relief. "Is it safe?" Georgette asked. She and the others timidly entered the garage.

"Yeah," Sarah answered. "Everyone's back to their own dimension. Where have you guys been?"

"Well, when Glory appeared, we got the cars and picked everyone up. They were losing pretty badly. Anyway, we figured you could handle Glory for a few hours. So we drove everyone back to the *Maru*, got them patched up, and came up with a better strategy," Ella said.

"Good thinking," Sarah said.

"Yeah, great idea," Susan said sarcastically. "I almost got my neck snapped!"

Georgette shrugged. "Every plan has flaws."

Susan glared. "So, what should we do with..." She trailed off as she looked to the spot where Randall had been and found it empty. "Where did he go now!"

Someone behind them cleared his throat. They all turned to see Randall standing in the doorway holding some sort of remote control. "You may have stopped my plans, but I'm still better than you," he said to Sarah. "Because I came up with this," he held up the remote, "before you did."

"Ooh, a TV remote. How original!" Susan said, sarcastically.

"No, no, it's a miniature warp generator," Randall said. "This will transport me to any dimension I want." He laughed. "It wasn't that hard to build actually. I don't know how you missed it, Sarah. Oh, well, not like I care. Bye bye." He pointed it in the air and pressed a button. A miniature version of the warp appeared. Susan moved to stop him, but Sarah grabbed her arm. Randall stepped through and the portal closed.

"I can't believe you let him go!" Susan exclaimed.

"I can't believe he thought of that thing before you did," Georgette said.

Sarah scoffed. "I thought of that thing a long time ago. If Randall had bothered to test it, he would have found a few slight problems with it. You see, it takes you to the fictional dimensions, but once you get there you can never return to the real dimension. The coordinates get erased somehow. Also, you can't control which dimension you arrive on. There just isn't enough power in that tiny version. Well, his anyway. My version will be perfected in a few weeks."

"I wonder where he went," Ella said.

"Well, lets find out. I'll track his course," Sarah announced. She typed on the computer for a few seconds, then laughed. "Now, *that's* poetic."

"What? Where'd he land?" Susan demanded.

"Tremors. He landed in the tremors dimension," Sarah said.

"With a resounding *thud*, I hope," Georgette added.


Well, that's it. Please, tell me what you thought. Thanks to everyone who already reviewed. Please, feel free to do so again. I'm thinking of doing some more sequels. Maybe some where the portal actually works. What do you think?
