Chapter 1- The Chemicals Between Us
Disclaimer: : It's not mine. Well actually some of the characters do belong to me but only the boring ones. It belongs to UPN, Joss, Mutant Enemy, etc. The song is by and everyone affiliated with them….. Again not me.
Summary:I can't write summaries so let's just say that that it's set about 50 years in the future and it's a Buffy/Spike story.
Timeline:This is set in an AU. Basically s5 did happen minus the whole Spike loving Buffy angle and without Buffy dying. So it's like a s4 Spike and Buffy but most of the s5 events did happen.
Rating: Ummmmmm I'm gonna say R but just to be safe. I think it could probably be considered PG-13. If you can watch Buffytvs then you can read this. There's some "colorful" language and some semi-graphic violence.
Distribution: No! You can't have it. (

I want you to remember
A love so full it could send us all ways
I want you to surrender
All my feelings rose today
Buffy made her way through the crowded airport, her black boots clattering on the tile floor. She could feel the dozens of eyes that were trained on her. The jealous glares of females and appreciative stares of men. She was used to it. Black did seem to be her color and her current outfit was entirely black. A uniform of sorts. Of course she generally ignored the petty little rule but common sense told her that there was no need for the council to find out about that.
She wore a sleeveless turtleneck sweater, a pair of leather pants; her hair was braided and coiled on top of her head. The only jewelry she wore was her plain gold cross hanging on a chain around her neck and a ring with the Chinese symbol for eternal life carved on it. They couldn't wear crosses without experiencing some pain but Buffy wore the necklace out of habit. Immortals, like vampires, had the aversion to holy objects because they were rooted in evil. They defied nature in the fact that they were ageless and did not die.
And I want you to remain
The power of children can amaze
I'll try not to complain
I know that a pisser baby
Buffy pushed though the double doors at the front of the airport and smiled as a light breeze brushed against her face. She gave a contented sigh and hoisted her backpack back onto her shoulders. "Happy Miss. Summers?" a voice asked in amusement. Buffy winced and turned to face the speaker, "Are you my ride?" she asked trying to seem as unemotional as she could. "I guess you could say that." The man replied with a smile. Buffy cocked her head at the stranger. Was he testing her or was he just different than the rest of the cold unfeeling bastards who ran the council? She decided not to risk it and followed him to the waiting car without comment.

Michael started up the motor and glanced in the rearview mirror looking at the passenger. She was gorgeous just like they described and she was different from the others. Her eyes still sparkled with life and emotion, nothing like the dead eyes of the other immortals. The council had successfully stamped out their sprits.

Then lying in this bed
Buffy began to drum her fingers on the window in impatience. It was possible she would see one of her old friends stopping by the council headquarters and she would get to catch up on the happenings in their lives. That was if she could get them to snap out of it long enough to talk to her.
I want you to remember
Everything you said
Every driven word
Like a hammer
Hell
To my head

Buffy stared at the elderly man in front of her. Bunch of fussy old men she thought. Why'd she always get stuck with the messengers? She had yet to meet the new head. She had been disappointed not to see any familiar faces so she formulated her formal request. "Requesting position of other units," she stammered. Stupid fussy old men with their stupid fussy formality. "Granted." The man replied, "Chase- Hawaii, Giles- Canada, Harris- Egypt, Madison-Australia, McCallen- South Africa, Osbourne- Brazil, Pierce- England, Rosenburg-Japan," he reeled of the names and locations from memory. Guy really needs a life Buffy thought with a small smile. "Which brings me to your next assignment. You will be traveling back to your old town of Sunnydale California along with Mr. Pierce. The hellmouth is releasing all manner of demon and the job of suppressing it and eliminating the demons is far too large for one person. Buffy stifled a groan. "Permission to speak?" "Granted" he said with a dismissive wave of his hand. "Why Pierce sir?" she asked. "Because you two are our strongest fighters." Another voice replied.

There is no lonelier state
Than lying in this bed
An exotic woman breezed into the room. Buffy wrinkled her nose as the smell of the woman's expensive perfume hit her like a sledgehammer. She must've taken a bath in the stuff to get it to be that smotheringly strong. Buffy felt a small smile tug at the corners of her mouth when all the men in the room tensed. "Kelly Lee," the woman said in an unnecessary introduction as she held out her hand. Buffy accepted it and allowed the smile to spread over her face.
We're of the hallow men
We are the naked ones
We never ment you harm
Never ment you wrong
Kelly stepped back with an apologetic smile as her cell phone began to ring. She listened for a moment before responding, "Send him up." The next few minutes were spent in polite conversation until a sharp knock came on the door. A guard opened the door and a familiar figured eased into the room, his normal cocky smile plastered on his face. Buffy knew it was him without even stepping out from behind Kelly. She could sense him and knew that he was currently checking out the head of the watchers council.
And I'd like to thank
All my lovers
Lovers
Lovers
Lovers
Lovers
Lovers
Buffy scowled and stepped to the side so that she could see him. Their eyes met and both immortals froze. Spike's eyes widened and Buffy's jaw dropped as they took in each other's appearance. Buffy felt her mouth go dry. There he was. The same bleached blonde hair, tight black jeans, and cocky attitude. What she hadn't remembered was how sexy those cheekbones were, how he was lean yet still muscular, and how blue his eyes were.

Spike began to chuckle softly, "'Lo Slayer," he purred. "Spike," she acknowledged with a nod. Kelly glanced between the two immortals in confusion. She gave them some last minute instructions and watched as the pair was lead to the waiting car. She turned back to the other occupants of the room and beckoned for Michael to follow her.

"Now there's something we hadn't bargained for." She said sharply. "What would that be?" Michael asked though his mind was elsewhere. Still on the petite blonde slyer. "You must've noticed it!" Kelly insisted. "The attraction between the two of them. The room was so thick with sexual tension and unresolved feelings it was almost suffocating!" "Does it change your plans?" Michael asked almost hopefully. "No," Kelly replied a smile slowly spreading over her face. "It just makes it a little more interesting."
