thoughts: I don't mean to brag, but it took me 2 days to write this, cool! Or at least for me it is. My mom was reading my chapters and thought they were good (I think), so I hope you enjoy it. Email me if you have any tips or stuff, feel free. Don't worry, I'll start getting more into it with Tara and Willow, Spike and Buffy, and Xander trying to destroy what Spike and Buffy have, oh, and Christmas soon! I like writing these, they pass the time (even when I have tons of homework to do.) I write these when I watch The Emporer's New Groove. I love that movie, you could die laughing from it. It gives me a smile and more encouragement (don't ask).
Scene 1
Willow sat up in bed all night hearing Cartman say over and over, "kick ass!" She couldn't get to sleep on whatever she did. Once she got to bed 2 hrs later, she dreamt the strangest dream:
Buffy and Spike were getting married in a church and they were about to say "I do" and kiss, when Xander charged in.
"Get him!" Xander yelled with commandos swarming from behind him towards Spike. Dawn got infront of them and they shot her, with her blood flying everywhere.
"Dawn!" Willow screamed as she rushed through the commandos, but Dawn was gone when she got there.
"Spike!" Buffy yelled as their hands departed and the commandos took Spike away. Everyone in the church yelped and screamed as they rushed out of the chapel, Buffy sitting where Spike was standing. Now everyone was gone, including the commandos and Xander. Buffy sat on a bench, crying with tears burning her cheeks.
"Why?" She muttered. "Why did this happen?" Willow sat next to her, hand patting her back.
"I don't know." Was all Willow could say.
"I thought we'd always be together." Buffy whispered.
"I thought so too, even when you guys fought and almost killed each other, I thought Spike would never leave, always be around no matter what happened." Willow answered, almost crying herself for Buffy.
"Where did he go?" Buffy asked, looking up.
"I don't know, maybe the commando's lab...or probably killed him." Willow answered, voice lowering. That only made Buffy cry more. Willow started crying suddenly too.
"I'm sorry Buffy! I never wanted this to happen!" Willow cried.
"I want him back." Buffy whispered, head lowering again.
"No you don't." A familiar voice said, coming from behind.
"Get away." Willow answered, turning her head looking him straight in the eye with a menacing voice and look.
"Make me." He said, walking closer to Buffy.
"Get away Angel! She doesn't need you!" Willow said getting up, prepared to fight. Angel walked closer and Willow swung her fist. It turned into a big fight with Buffy still crying. Angel threw Willow down on the ground and went towards Buffy to sit next to her.
"My baby needs a mother." He told her, raising her chin up. They got up, walking away hugging, Buffy still crying. Willow still laid there, a shocking look on her face with her mouth wide open breathing hard.
Willow woke up and yelled "Buffy!"
Scene 2
Dawn had fallen asleep on the couch, TV Fun House was blazing infront of her eyelids. In the kitchen, Spike had sat Buffy on the counter while he stood furiously kissing her. Buffy stopped them and asked, "Did you hear that?"
"Hear what?" He asked back.
"Nevermind, I guess I was just running away from my thoughts. I'm gonna go to bed." She said. Spike lifted her up and set her feet down on the floor.
"Good night luv, stop by tomorrow." Spike said, kissing her one last time and headed out the door.
"'Night Spike." Dawn muttered smiling, still eyes closed. Buffy blushed by now knowing that Dawn was probably sneaking looks at them when they were making out. Buffy said goodnight to Spike and ran upstairs. Willow was wide awake, sitting up in bed. She picked up the phone and dialed.
"Hello?" Angel asked sleepily.
"Hi, Angel, it's me, Willow, remember?"
"Oh, hi Willow, what's the matter?"
"Can I ask you something?"
"Yea, sure, anything, shoot."
"Do you have a baby?"
Angel suddenly started coughing a lot. "How did you know?"
"You do?!"
"Well...yea, how do you know?"
"I had a dream, that's all, thanks, bye,"
"What?"
Willow hung up, shocked. "What?!"
Scene 3
Xander woke up later than usual, and Anya had probably already been at the Magic Box. He yawned, pulling on his jeans and shirt and went out the door to the Magic Box.
Xander walked in the store, looking sleepy.
"Good morning Alexander. I was looking through this bride's magazine and saw the most beautiful dress, want to have a look see?" Anya said. Xander looked up and saw Anya in a business women's outfit.
"An?"
"Yes dear?"
"What's wrong?"
"Oh, absolutely nothing! Thanks for asking. Now let's talk business, the bills came in this morning and I conducted a web page on the internet to show our shop and have more customers. As I predicted, it worked. 10 times the customers now and we have more than enough money to pay the bills! Maybe even a Ferrari."
"Anya, are you ok?"
"Yes. Are you ok?"
"Ummm, yea. But I don't think my eyes are, why are you all of a sudden...I don't know...smart?"
"I've always been smart Alexander! How dare you!"
"Call me Xander, remember? We're engaged?"
"Of course I do! But I thought I would put on a more sophisticated act more than a selfish one."
"Do what you want, I'm going to sleep." Xander sat down at the table, slamming his head on it not moving one bit. Anya shrugged and started putting books away on the shelf. Willow ran in, breathing hard.
"Guess what just happened last....ni-gh-t. Anya? Are you ok?" Willow asked.
"Why must everybody keep asking that? Yes, I'm grand, what were you saying?" Anya replied, looking up from the book shelf.
"Why are you dressed like that?"
"I wanted to, have a problem with that? Now what's the classification of your problem?"
"Classification?"
"Yes, you know, what's the subject, the meaning, may I proceed or will you?"
"Oh, forget it, well last night, I had this weird dream."
"Yes, do go on." Willow told her dream word by word and Anya only starred.
"Spike and Buffy were getting married?"
"Yes but that's not the point! I called Angel last night and asked him if he had a child, and he said yes! My dream might be true! Let me look this kind of thing up." Anya nodded and resumed to what she was doing. Anya may claim she's more sophisticated, but she's still not open minded. Willow thought as she looked through some books. "Aha! Page 943 of Witches with Gifts, if a talented witch experiences (a) dream(s) with life or future facts, something or someone will come with in the 48 hrs of the happening and one part of that dream will come true, whether 'tis the fact or a part which doesn't make any humanly sense. It's called Dream Prophecies. See, it's all here, someone will come and one part of my dream will come true." Willow said happily, but then started having a worried look. "Wait, a part of my dream will come true? The whole dream was a catastrophe! Dawn died, the commandos came, Xander went crazy, Angel came to get Buffy, they took Spike away, Buffy cried, it's all bad!" Willow rested her head on her hand, shaking it and slammed her head on the table like Xander had done. Xander put his head up.
"I called the commandos and went crazy?"
Scene 4
Buffy went to the Magic Box after she dropped off Dawn.
"Any research to do?" She asked as everyone looked nervous and scared. Buffy was just about to ask about Anya, but Willow said, "Don't ask, it's nothing."
"Why do you guys look all fidgety and stuff?" Buffy asked. Xander took a deep breath and told her about Willow's dream. "Spike and I got married?" Buffy asked curiously.
"What part did you not get?" Willow asked. "I called Angel, asked him if he had a kid, and he said ya, it also says in this book that to make this Dream Prophecy for sure and accurate to know that it is a Dream Prophecy, 3 of your closest friends must be in it, and 3 of my closest friends were! It's a Dream Prophecy! Buffy, someone or something big will come in the next, at least now 28 hrs and one part of my dream will come true? What will I do now?" Willow said quickly.
"The only partially not bad part is Spike and I getting married, other than that the rest stinks." Buffy answered, sitting down.
"Hey! Maybe I'll call Riley up with his commandos and kill Spike!" Xander said. Everyone gave him a mean look. "Or not."
"Well, I'm going to figure things out, bye." Buffy said, getting up and went out the door.
"Sure she is." Xander said, looking down. "We better keep looking for more info." Anya said, looking in books.
Scene 5
Buffy walked towards Spike's crypt yet again. She walked right in and saw no Spike. "Spike?" Buffy called. A warm hand rested on Buffy's sholder.
"Yes luv?" He asked, coming from behind the door. Buffy turned around.
"Spike, something's going down with Willow."
"What is it?" Like Willow and Xander, Buffy told Spike what Willow's dream was about. "We got married?" Spike asked, amused.
"Almost and that's not the point, Willow called Angel and asked him if he had a son, he said yea and it's just like her dream, when he, you know, said 'my baby needs a mother'. One part may come true and something or someone big will come in another 28 hrs." Buffy said.
"I'll kick the bastard's ass." Spike whispered, remembering Buffy and Angel together, but then remembered who's with who and smiled an evil smile.
"What do ya think?" Buffy asked, sitting down on his bed.
"I think Angel won't come back or better not." Spike said in a low, menacing voice.
"Shut-up honey, what'll we do?" Buffy asked as Spike sat next to her, putting his arm around her waist.
"Don't worry so much Slayer, I'm sure it's nothing, probably no Dream Prophecy or anything like that, don't fret." Spike answered, putting her hair behind her ear.
"You always come up with the practical answers." She said, resting her head on his sholder. "Yea, well that's me." He said back as they sat there for a few min.
"I guess Willow will come up with something, but hopefully that doesn't involve magic." Buffy kissed Spike and then got up. "I have to go, Drop by tonight, if you don't mind baby-sitting Dawn, or do you?" Buffy asked and gave a sad look. Spike's guilt built up.
"Of course I will, but I'll have to get payed." Buffy gave him a 'you want money?' look but then realized what he meant. "Sure," She answered, saying bye then left.
Scene 6
Buffy went to a restraunt for lunch and got chicken soup with hot chocolate, reading a magazine. For some reason, Xander showed up surprisingly and saw Buffy.
"Hey, Buffy!" Xander said as he went to her table. "Hi Xander, whatcha want?" Buffy asked, not looking up from her magazine.
"Nothing, just thought I'd say hi while I was passing through." He answered.
"OK, hi." Buffy said.
"Willow found out something." Xander said, lowering his voice and head.
"What?" Buffy asked, looking up from her magazine.
"You know what Willow said about that Dream Prophecy stuff? Well, there's more, if Willow's all this great and mighty witch, then there is also another side affect. Someone she loves will get hurt badly, probably die."
"Why?"
"Because like it says, if she's this mighty witch, those kind of people aren't supposed to go so long without magic. Amateurs can get past it easily but not people like Willow. I mean by that is Willow hasn't been doing magic, but she really wants to, and other people are pressuring her to not do magic so she's confused on what to do, so she has bad dreams and those conduct Dream Prophecies for a witch like Willow. And those kinds of things are bad in her case."
"Oh. Well as long as we know she's not doing magic."
"Yea, but not doing magic doesn't help anymore. She was probably better off turning dolls into sheep and staircases into slides."
"What'll we do?"
"I've been asking that all day, but no one will answer."
"Tell Willow to do a spell or something!"
"Buffy, it's to late for that, 26 more hrs until the big event."
"Perfect, just great. So we can't do anything to stop this?"
"Well, there is one thing."
Scene 7
"Hey Anya, what's up?" Dawn asked, coming into the Magic Box.
"Oh, hi Dawn. I've got to tell you something." And like Buffy, Xander, and Willow, Anya told Dawn about Willow's dream and the Dream Prophecy. "And Willow called Angel, asked him if he had a kid, and he said yes. And 3 of her friends were in it and this only happens to powerful witches like herself, it's specially called a Dream Prophecy.
"Who cares if she had 3 friends in it or was right about a life fact? It could just be a coincidence." Dawn said.
"Always to tell if it's a real Dream Prophecy, you do a tell spell. You summon up this flash of light infront of you and ask the question, if it turns blue, it's true, if it turns pink, it's false. Hers turned blue." Anya answered.
"Oh. Well, what'll we do? Is there anything to stop this thing from happening?" Dawn asked.
"Well, there is one thing." Anya said, putting a book away.
Scene 8
Buffy and Xander got Spike at night and took him to Buffy's house. Willow and Dawn got Tara that night and brought her to her house too.
"What do you want?" Spike asked irritated as he lit his cigarette.
"Yea, what's this all about Dawn?" Tara asked.
"Who's going to tell Tara this time guys?" Anya asked, looking around the room at everyone.
"And why is Anya dressed like that?" Tara asked again.
"She's going for a new look." Buffy answered, sitting next to them.
"Does this have to do with that Dream Prophocy?" Spike asked, sitting up.
"Yep, you were wrong, it is something big." Buffy looked over to Tara and told her all about what was going on and Willow's dream and the Dream Prophocy info.
"Speaking of Willow, where is she?" Xander asked.
"She went out to get supplies for this spell." Dawn answere. Willow ran in with a bag in her hands.
"I *heh* got it!" Willow said breathless. "And I see you rounded the 2 up." She said, looking at Spike and Tara.
"Nobody is answering me! Why are we here?" Spike said, gestuiring to Tara. "Are we part of a spell?"
"Actually, you guys are the spell." Buffy said.
"What?" Tara asked. "What do you mean? Why are we part of this Dream Prophocy?" Tara asked.
"Well, it's like this, we needed 2 sacrifices." Xander said.
"He's kidding. But you guys will need to go in Willow." Spike and Tara gave Buffy a disgusted, surprised look. "I mean when she's sleeping!" They gave her an even more disgusted look. "I mean in her thoughts! When she's dreaming, we do a spell and you guys go in her thoughts. Willow's dream will happen again and you guys need to stop all of the bad things from happening so that no bad part will happen in real life." Buffy explained. Spike and Tara nodded their heads in 'oh'.
"Why do we need to, luv? What about you Einsteins?" Spike asked, breathing out smoke.
"We need a powerful witch and a powerful vampire, see, it says right there on page 944. We need you 2 in order for the spell to work, if we sent Buffy in, it wouldn't work at all." Dawn explained. "So I guess we're lucky to have a vamp and witch around after all, huh?"
"So what you're saying is that we need to go in Willow's dream and stop any bad things from happening? Simple!" Spike exclaimed.
"I suppose." Tara answered. "Who's gonna do the spell?"
"You will." Everyone said. "Since Willow will be asleep."
"Thanks for the opportunity." Tara said and sighed.
"Well, I'm ready. Come on, do the mumbo-jumbo and get it over with." Spike said, rubbing the tip of his cigarette on Xander's sholder and throwing it out.
"Ow! Hey!" Xander said, punching him in the jaw. Spike hit him back hard in the stomach and grabbed his head as shocks went through it. Xander was about to hit him back, but Buffy grabbed his arm and yelled,
"Enough! Now we have to do this to save ourselves and others! And we are all in this. So let's work together and get it done with!" Xander and Spike shrugged and retreated from their attack.
"Let's rock and roll!" Xander said. Spike gave him a weird look and shook his head. "Let's do this already."
Scene 9
"Dream Prophecy of the night, send her dreams away not to fright. Let this spell be called again, sending away the evil pain. Let the vampire and witch go in, for her thoughts will only begin, at the dream she had the day before, for us to finish this adventurous chore. Dream Prophecy, hear my cry, for I only get this one last try. To stop the evil things to come, and no longer will this stench be rum. But until the lasting hrs end, let us try a few times to spend. Until we get it right and done, let us go in and have some fun." Tara said, with her's and Spike's eyes closed, legs crossed and holding hands. A flash of light went over them and the snoring Willow, and before they knew it, they were in Willow's dream she had last night. "And so begins the spell for weeping Willow." Xander laughed at his joke but nobody else did. "Don't you get it? Willow's sleeping, weeping Willow, you know the tree..ha, you don't get it, I'll shut up now." Xander sat down as everybody else stood, watching curiously on what was happening.
"Well, this is what it's like in Willow. I guess it's your first time being in her like this." Spike said, looking around, but suddenly saw Buffy in a wedding dress in front of him. "Buffy?" He asked.
"I do." She said to the minister.
"You may now, kiss the bride." The minister said, closing his bible. Spike couldn't help but kiss Buffy.
"Spike!" Tara whispered in the audience. Spike looked up from his kiss and down at her. "What?" He asked as Xander ran in with the commandos. "Buffy! Run! Sorry Tara, forgot what we were doing, get Dawn, and quick!" Spike yelled as he grabbed Buffy and ran away from the commandos.
"Dawn, come with me!" Tara pulled Dawn away from infront of the commandos and after Spike. "Willow! Get Willow just incase!" Spike yelled. "Oh right! Dawn, follow Spike!" Tara ran after Willow, grabbed her arm and fled. Piles of commandos followed them as they ran through the crowd of people and out of the chapel. One shot Dawn and Willow. "Spike! Brake the cookie! We have to do this over since you screwed things up!" Tara yelled as Spike broke a spell cookie to end the dream. A blur here and there and they were back infront of Buffy and the crew.
"Ummm...sorry." Spike said. "Let's try again." Tara gave him a mean look then yelled, "Again!" and they were redoing the whole scene over. Spike quickly ran towards the chapel doors and blocked them with whatever he could find. "Tara, hurry! We haven't any time to waste!" Spike yelled as Tara got up, telling everyone to get up but nobody moved. She kept trying over and over but nothing worked.
"Bloody hell," Spike whispered then grabbed a box on the table and yelled, "Listen up everyone! I've got a bomb in this box! Get up and out the back doors!" Everybody listened to him and frantically screamed and poured out the backs doors. Buffy ran towards Spike,
"What's going on?" She asked as commandos started pounding on the doors, since Spike put a lot more heavier things infront of it then you could imagine. "Get out Buffy! Somebody's going to kill us, no time for details, just go!" Buffy listened then followed Tara out the back door, picking the front of her dress up so not to step on it. "God she's beautiful," He whispered then ran out the door with them, commandos starting to come through.
"Crack the cookie Spike!" Tara yelled.
"Oh, right!" Spike broke it and everything changed back to Buffy's living room.
"I think we did it." Tara said as Willow woke up and asked,
"What were you thinking? 'I have a bomb!'?"
Scene 10
"So what will happen now?" Anya asked, looking at Buffy.
"Well, we only have 1 more hr until this thing comes and a part of the dream happens." Buffy said, yawning since it was 6 in the morning. Everybody had stayed at Buffy's for the night, including Spike. They all slept in the living room, Spike's arm was around Buffy's waist all night. But now only Buffy, Anya, and Xander were up now.
"Well, The only bad thing about the dream right now is that Spike said he had a bomb, but not intending to bomb anything so that's good, or did he?" Xander said, eyes open.
"There isn't much we can do honestly, we don't know who's coming and what part is going to happen, so there's nothing to prepare for much, but we better, just incase." Anya said, sitting up, shaking everyone awake. Xander just sat up, doing nothing but look at Spike and Buffy. He still didn't agree about them, but he was only one man, or one person for that matter, and couldn't change anyone else's minds about what was happening between them. But he wasn't the only one, Willow didn't like it much neither, but she couldn't change Buffy's mind. So she gave up on questions. Buffy whispered in Spike's ear,
"Wake up honey." and turned him on his back. Spike awoke and sat up. "I thought vampires didn't sleep at night." Buffy asked, smiling.
"I couldn't help but be with you during the night, you know, protect you from your surroundings." He answered.
"My friends?" Buffy asked. Spike didn't answer that, but just kissed Buffy's warm lips. Xander made a gagging motion. Dawn, Tara, and Willow woke up mins later.
"What are we going to do?" Dawn asked sleepily. Willow put her arm around Dawn's shoulders and squeezed.
"That's a question some people have to lay off of." Willow said, sitting up. Tara giggled.
"Only 1 hr left guys, let's mellow up." Anya said, standing up.
"Fine," Dawn said, trudging herself up.
"Sorry, not you." Buffy said to Dawn, giving her a stern look.
"Sorry little bit, not old enough yet, and you might get hurt." Spike said, sniffing Buffy's neck.
"When will I then?" Dawn asked grumpily.
"When your about--never!" Buffy said.
"I'm getting in some new clothes." Dawn said rolling her eyes, walking upstairs.
"Yea, we'll meet you at the Magic Box in half an hour with weapons, bye." Xander said, walking with Anya out the door.
"Ummm...Tara, would you like to stay awhile? You know, help make breakfast?" Willow asked Tara. Tara nodded and smiled. She hasn't done any spells since Dawn got hurt, I better give her a 3rd chance. Tara thought as she went in the kitchen with Willow.
"So we're all that's left, what's new?" Buffy said, lying back down.
"Don't know, don't care, as long as you're still here." Spike said and lied next to Buffy. Buffy just smiled, until she heard Dawn scream and absolutely forgot what Xander said until now, 'Someone she loves will get hurt badly, probably die.' Buffy felt cold all of a sudden. "AAAAAAAGGGHHHHH!!!" Dawn screamed again. "DAWN!"

Willow sat up in bed all night hearing Cartman say over and over, "kick ass!" She couldn't get to sleep on whatever she did. Once she got to bed 2 hrs later, she dreamt the strangest dream:
Buffy and Spike were getting married in a church and they were about to say "I do" and kiss, when Xander charged in.

Xander woke up later than usual, and Anya had probably already been at the Magic Box. He yawned, pulling on his jeans and shirt and went out the door to the Magic Box.

"Good morning Alexander. I was looking through this bride's magazine and saw the most beautiful dress, want to have a look see?" Anya said. Xander looked up and saw Anya in a business women's outfit.

Willow rested her head on her hand, shaking it and slammed her head on the table like Xander had done. Xander put his head up.
"I called the commandos and went crazy?"
Scene 4
Buffy went to the Magic Box after she dropped off Dawn.
"Any research to do?" She asked as everyone looked nervous and scared. Buffy was just about to ask about Anya, but Willow said, "Don't ask, it's nothing."
"Why do you guys look all fidgety and stuff?" Buffy asked. Xander took a deep breath and told her about Willow's dream. "Spike and I got married?" Buffy asked curiously.
"What part did you not get?" Willow asked. "I called Angel, asked him if he had a kid, and he said ya, it also says in this book that to make this Dream Prophecy for sure and accurate to know that it is a Dream Prophecy, 3 of your closest friends must be in it, and 3 of my closest friends were! It's a Dream Prophecy! Buffy, someone or something big will come in the next, at least now 28 hrs and one part of my dream will come true? What will I do now?" Willow said quickly.
"The only partially not bad part is Spike and I getting married, other than that the rest stinks." Buffy answered, sitting down.
"Hey! Maybe I'll call Riley up with his commandos and kill Spike!" Xander said. Everyone gave him a mean look. "Or not."
"Well, I'm going to figure things out, bye." Buffy said, getting up and went out the door.
"Sure she is." Xander said, looking down. "We better keep looking for more info." Anya said, looking in books.
Scene 5
Buffy walked towards Spike's crypt yet again. She walked right in and saw no Spike. "Spike?" Buffy called. A warm hand rested on Buffy's sholder.
"Yes luv?" He asked, coming from behind the door. Buffy turned around.
"Spike, something's going down with Willow."
"What is it?" Like Willow and Xander, Buffy told Spike what Willow's dream was about. "We got married?" Spike asked, amused.
"Almost and that's not the point, Willow called Angel and asked him if he had a son, he said yea and it's just like her dream, when he, you know, said 'my baby needs a mother'. One part may come true and something or someone big will come in another 28 hrs." Buffy said.
"I'll kick the bastard's ass." Spike whispered, remembering Buffy and Angel together, but then remembered who's with who and smiled an evil smile.
"What do ya think?" Buffy asked, sitting down on his bed.
"I think Angel won't come back or better not." Spike said in a low, menacing voice.
"Shut-up honey, what'll we do?" Buffy asked as Spike sat next to her, putting his arm around her waist.
"Don't worry so much Slayer, I'm sure it's nothing, probably no Dream Prophecy or anything like that, don't fret." Spike answered, putting her hair behind her ear.
"You always come up with the practical answers." She said, resting her head on his sholder. "Yea, well that's me." He said back as they sat there for a few min.
"I guess Willow will come up with something, but hopefully that doesn't involve magic." Buffy kissed Spike and then got up. "I have to go, Drop by tonight, if you don't mind baby-sitting Dawn, or do you?" Buffy asked and gave a sad look. Spike's guilt built up.
"Of course I will, but I'll have to get payed." Buffy gave him a 'you want money?' look but then realized what he meant. "Sure," She answered, saying bye then left.
Scene 6
Buffy went to a restraunt for lunch and got chicken soup with hot chocolate, reading a magazine. For some reason, Xander showed up surprisingly and saw Buffy.
"Hey, Buffy!" Xander said as he went to her table. "Hi Xander, whatcha want?" Buffy asked, not looking up from her magazine.
"Nothing, just thought I'd say hi while I was passing through." He answered.
"OK, hi." Buffy said.
"Willow found out something." Xander said, lowering his voice and head.
"What?" Buffy asked, looking up from her magazine.
"You know what Willow said about that Dream Prophecy stuff? Well, there's more, if Willow's all this great and mighty witch, then there is also another side affect. Someone she loves will get hurt badly, probably die."
"Why?"
"Because like it says, if she's this mighty witch, those kind of people aren't supposed to go so long without magic. Amateurs can get past it easily but not people like Willow. I mean by that is Willow hasn't been doing magic, but she really wants to, and other people are pressuring her to not do magic so she's confused on what to do, so she has bad dreams and those conduct Dream Prophecies for a witch like Willow. And those kinds of things are bad in her case."
"Oh. Well as long as we know she's not doing magic."
"Yea, but not doing magic doesn't help anymore. She was probably better off turning dolls into sheep and staircases into slides."
"What'll we do?"
"I've been asking that all day, but no one will answer."
"Tell Willow to do a spell or something!"
"Buffy, it's to late for that, 26 more hrs until the big event."
"Perfect, just great. So we can't do anything to stop this?"
"Well, there is one thing."
Scene 7
"Hey Anya, what's up?" Dawn asked, coming into the Magic Box.
"Oh, hi Dawn. I've got to tell you something." And like Buffy, Xander, and Willow, Anya told Dawn about Willow's dream and the Dream Prophecy. "And Willow called Angel, asked him if he had a kid, and he said yes. And 3 of her friends were in it and this only happens to powerful witches like herself, it's specially called a Dream Prophecy.
"Who cares if she had 3 friends in it or was right about a life fact? It could just be a coincidence." Dawn said.
"Always to tell if it's a real Dream Prophecy, you do a tell spell. You summon up this flash of light infront of you and ask the question, if it turns blue, it's true, if it turns pink, it's false. Hers turned blue." Anya answered.
"Oh. Well, what'll we do? Is there anything to stop this thing from happening?" Dawn asked.
"Well, there is one thing." Anya said, putting a book away.
Scene 8
Buffy and Xander got Spike at night and took him to Buffy's house. Willow and Dawn got Tara that night and brought her to her house too.
"What do you want?" Spike asked irritated as he lit his cigarette.
"Yea, what's this all about Dawn?" Tara asked.
"Who's going to tell Tara this time guys?" Anya asked, looking around the room at everyone.
"And why is Anya dressed like that?" Tara asked again.
"She's going for a new look." Buffy answered, sitting next to them.
"Does this have to do with that Dream Prophocy?" Spike asked, sitting up.
"Yep, you were wrong, it is something big." Buffy looked over to Tara and told her all about what was going on and Willow's dream and the Dream Prophocy info.
"Speaking of Willow, where is she?" Xander asked.
"She went out to get supplies for this spell." Dawn answere. Willow ran in with a bag in her hands.
"I *heh* got it!" Willow said breathless. "And I see you rounded the 2 up." She said, looking at Spike and Tara.
"Nobody is answering me! Why are we here?" Spike said, gestuiring to Tara. "Are we part of a spell?"
"Actually, you guys are the spell." Buffy said.
"What?" Tara asked. "What do you mean? Why are we part of this Dream Prophocy?" Tara asked.
"Well, it's like this, we needed 2 sacrifices." Xander said.
"He's kidding. But you guys will need to go in Willow." Spike and Tara gave Buffy a disgusted, surprised look. "I mean when she's sleeping!" They gave her an even more disgusted look. "I mean in her thoughts! When she's dreaming, we do a spell and you guys go in her thoughts. Willow's dream will happen again and you guys need to stop all of the bad things from happening so that no bad part will happen in real life." Buffy explained. Spike and Tara nodded their heads in 'oh'.
"Why do we need to, luv? What about you Einsteins?" Spike asked, breathing out smoke.
"We need a powerful witch and a powerful vampire, see, it says right there on page 944. We need you 2 in order for the spell to work, if we sent Buffy in, it wouldn't work at all." Dawn explained. "So I guess we're lucky to have a vamp and witch around after all, huh?"
"So what you're saying is that we need to go in Willow's dream and stop any bad things from happening? Simple!" Spike exclaimed.
"I suppose." Tara answered. "Who's gonna do the spell?"
"You will." Everyone said. "Since Willow will be asleep."
"Thanks for the opportunity." Tara said and sighed.
"Well, I'm ready. Come on, do the mumbo-jumbo and get it over with." Spike said, rubbing the tip of his cigarette on Xander's sholder and throwing it out.
"Ow! Hey!" Xander said, punching him in the jaw. Spike hit him back hard in the stomach and grabbed his head as shocks went through it. Xander was about to hit him back, but Buffy grabbed his arm and yelled,
"Enough! Now we have to do this to save ourselves and others! And we are all in this. So let's work together and get it done with!" Xander and Spike shrugged and retreated from their attack.
"Let's rock and roll!" Xander said. Spike gave him a weird look and shook his head. "Let's do this already."
Scene 9
"Dream Prophecy of the night, send her dreams away not to fright. Let this spell be called again, sending away the evil pain. Let the vampire and witch go in, for her thoughts will only begin, at the dream she had the day before, for us to finish this adventurous chore. Dream Prophecy, hear my cry, for I only get this one last try. To stop the evil things to come, and no longer will this stench be rum. But until the lasting hrs end, let us try a few times to spend. Until we get it right and done, let us go in and have some fun." Tara said, with her's and Spike's eyes closed, legs crossed and holding hands. A flash of light went over them and the snoring Willow, and before they knew it, they were in Willow's dream she had last night. "And so begins the spell for weeping Willow." Xander laughed at his joke but nobody else did. "Don't you get it? Willow's sleeping, weeping Willow, you know the tree..ha, you don't get it, I'll shut up now." Xander sat down as everybody else stood, watching curiously on what was happening.
"Well, this is what it's like in Willow. I guess it's your first time being in her like this." Spike said, looking around, but suddenly saw Buffy in a wedding dress in front of him. "Buffy?" He asked.
"I do." She said to the minister.
"You may now, kiss the bride." The minister said, closing his bible. Spike couldn't help but kiss Buffy.
"Spike!" Tara whispered in the audience. Spike looked up from his kiss and down at her. "What?" He asked as Xander ran in with the commandos. "Buffy! Run! Sorry Tara, forgot what we were doing, get Dawn, and quick!" Spike yelled as he grabbed Buffy and ran away from the commandos.
"Dawn, come with me!" Tara pulled Dawn away from infront of the commandos and after Spike. "Willow! Get Willow just incase!" Spike yelled. "Oh right! Dawn, follow Spike!" Tara ran after Willow, grabbed her arm and fled. Piles of commandos followed them as they ran through the crowd of people and out of the chapel. One shot Dawn and Willow. "Spike! Brake the cookie! We have to do this over since you screwed things up!" Tara yelled as Spike broke a spell cookie to end the dream. A blur here and there and they were back infront of Buffy and the crew.
"Ummm...sorry." Spike said. "Let's try again." Tara gave him a mean look then yelled, "Again!" and they were redoing the whole scene over. Spike quickly ran towards the chapel doors and blocked them with whatever he could find. "Tara, hurry! We haven't any time to waste!" Spike yelled as Tara got up, telling everyone to get up but nobody moved. She kept trying over and over but nothing worked.
"Bloody hell," Spike whispered then grabbed a box on the table and yelled, "Listen up everyone! I've got a bomb in this box! Get up and out the back doors!" Everybody listened to him and frantically screamed and poured out the backs doors. Buffy ran towards Spike,
"What's going on?" She asked as commandos started pounding on the doors, since Spike put a lot more heavier things infront of it then you could imagine. "Get out Buffy! Somebody's going to kill us, no time for details, just go!" Buffy listened then followed Tara out the back door, picking the front of her dress up so not to step on it. "God she's beautiful," He whispered then ran out the door with them, commandos starting to come through.
"Crack the cookie Spike!" Tara yelled.
"Oh, right!" Spike broke it and everything changed back to Buffy's living room.
"I think we did it." Tara said as Willow woke up and asked,
"What were you thinking? 'I have a bomb!'?"
Scene 10
"So what will happen now?" Anya asked, looking at Buffy.
"Well, we only have 1 more hr until this thing comes and a part of the dream happens." Buffy said, yawning since it was 6 in the morning. Everybody had stayed at Buffy's for the night, including Spike. They all slept in the living room, Spike's arm was around Buffy's waist all night. But now only Buffy, Anya, and Xander were up now.
"Well, The only bad thing about the dream right now is that Spike said he had a bomb, but not intending to bomb anything so that's good, or did he?" Xander said, eyes open.
"There isn't much we can do honestly, we don't know who's coming and what part is going to happen, so there's nothing to prepare for much, but we better, just incase." Anya said, sitting up, shaking everyone awake. Xander just sat up, doing nothing but look at Spike and Buffy. He still didn't agree about them, but he was only one man, or one person for that matter, and couldn't change anyone else's minds about what was happening between them. But he wasn't the only one, Willow didn't like it much neither, but she couldn't change Buffy's mind. So she gave up on questions. Buffy whispered in Spike's ear,
"Wake up honey." and turned him on his back. Spike awoke and sat up. "I thought vampires didn't sleep at night." Buffy asked, smiling.
"I couldn't help but be with you during the night, you know, protect you from your surroundings." He answered.
"My friends?" Buffy asked. Spike didn't answer that, but just kissed Buffy's warm lips. Xander made a gagging motion. Dawn, Tara, and Willow woke up mins later.
"What are we going to do?" Dawn asked sleepily. Willow put her arm around Dawn's shoulders and squeezed.
"That's a question some people have to lay off of." Willow said, sitting up. Tara giggled.
"Only 1 hr left guys, let's mellow up." Anya said, standing up.
"Fine," Dawn said, trudging herself up.
"Sorry, not you." Buffy said to Dawn, giving her a stern look.
"Sorry little bit, not old enough yet, and you might get hurt." Spike said, sniffing Buffy's neck.
"When will I then?" Dawn asked grumpily.
"When your about--never!" Buffy said.
"I'm getting in some new clothes." Dawn said rolling her eyes, walking upstairs.
"Yea, we'll meet you at the Magic Box in half an hour with weapons, bye." Xander said, walking with Anya out the door.
"Ummm...Tara, would you like to stay awhile? You know, help make breakfast?" Willow asked Tara. Tara nodded and smiled. She hasn't done any spells since Dawn got hurt, I better give her a 3rd chance. Tara thought as she went in the kitchen with Willow.
"So we're all that's left, what's new?" Buffy said, lying back down.
"Don't know, don't care, as long as you're still here." Spike said and lied next to Buffy. Buffy just smiled, until she heard Dawn scream and absolutely forgot what Xander said until now, 'Someone she loves will get hurt badly, probably die.' Buffy felt cold all of a sudden. "AAAAAAAGGGHHHHH!!!" Dawn screamed again. "DAWN!"
