Buffy looked at the hotel Spike had booked. Then she gave him a pissed off stare. "We are not staying here tonight or any other night."
Spike grinned at the Slayer. He paid the cab driver, who had unpacked their suitcases and left them there. "Guess we are stuck here until tomorrow morning." He wrapped his arm around her, only to get flipped on to his back.
She took her suitcase and went into the hotel. Everything she did or said in some way had only encouraged Spike's crush on her.
"Buffy, wait..." Spike grabbed her arm hard.
"What do you want?" She spat, anger pouring through her veins at the thought of his touch.
"I want us to have fun, while we're here. You can't deny that you felt something, we kissed one another." He told Buffy, as she tried to back away from him.
"I...didn't feel...anything...but disgust." She told the vampire who was
smirking at her.
Spike teased her, "I think you haven't been told that you're beautiful when you're angry. Oh I forgot you don't have a man."
Buffy was frustrated. She really felt the urge to inflict serious pain on Spike, however great the temptation she decided to wait. Although, it was nice to hear those things from a guy, especially after Riley,
"Oh, hello you must be the Archers. William and Buffy you are in room 108. I hope your stay in Egypt will be a memorable one." The desk clerk explained and winked as he handed Spike the key.
"Thank you." Spike suddenly lurched forward, pulling Buffy into his arms, roughly assaulting her lips with his own, forcing them to open under the pressure he exerted. She gave in, opening her lips, allowing Spike to force his tongue into her mouth, exploring it, reveling in her taste. Before he lost complete control of his senses he released his grip murmuring, "I love you, Buffy" before pinching her ass, right in front of the bemused desk clerk.

Katrina looked into the hourglass of sand; she had brought with her on this journey. They had to find the place where all the suns would meet.
Legends said that you could see all of time once you tasted the Pharaoh's Gift full power.
She felt the familiar signs of her memory clouding before revealing something that could be important to her. She saw the face of a beautiful blonde girl with startling emerald eyes, her face morphing into the familiar features of a vampire. The vampire took the Pharaoh's Gift and fed it to another girl, who's eyes shone in the darkness, illuminated with the pain of a thousand stars. She appeared to be impaled brutally through her stomach, with what? Katrina couldn't see.
Damn. She had a vision of a future that couldn't happen. This was her chance to become a master vampire and it was going to be tossed away. Her mind clouded again. She knew another vision was about to reveal itself to her.
She saw the blonde girl staking Lokenrah. The girl was a Slayer. Well this put an interesting twist on things. Maybe she could use this to her advantage.
A plan began to formulate in Katrina's mind. Lokenrah entered the room; She smiled at him. as he was guided towards her by two of his minions
"Ah, Katrina. I can smell the scent of purple lotuses on you. You and I will be the rulers of Egypt, once I get my eyes back." Lokenrah said.
She replied, "We have other problems." She would feed on his hatred of slayer's. "One of our enemies is a Slayer. She wants to destroy the Pharaoh's Gift, to make sure you can not enjoy the power it offers you." Katrina loved doing this to Lokenrah. This made him more focused.
Lokenrah grabbed an empty glass bottle and smashed it on the wall. "Then I'm just going to have to kill that damn Slayer bitch." Lokenrah told her.

Drusilla was standing outside in the sun. He saw her smile.
"Drusilla, why are you smiling?" Xander asked her.
"Hmm, when I was a little girl, I used to play with my sisters in the sunshine. They were so warm, like the sun is. It's so beautiful." She told him.
He then placed his hand on her shoulder. "I've forgotten how beautiful, the sun is. Sometimes you don't realize what you take for granted."
Drusilla then said, "Miss Edith, says you appreciate beautiful things. I wish that I could look at the sun for hours."
Xander knew how important it was for Drusilla to become sane again. He wondered if she would miss, Miss Edith. "What would you miss the most if you got your sanity back?"
Drusilla smiled "I don't know what I would miss the most. Miss Edith says it's too soon to look forward to anything.
He wondered what she meant by that last comment.
