A/N: Personally, I love angst, and I … well I don't *love* character death, but it brings angst, so it's all good. Well not ALL good… Basically, I'm a very odd person. I am perfectly happy with the ending I gave to my fic, but I know that a lot of people hate things like that. I don't care what everyone thinks, but I want to try my hand at writing a happy chapter. A lot of people probably don't like that I killed of nearly everyone. IMO, if Buffy and Angel are still there, and they're together, than I'm happy, and everything is fine. But anyways, if you're like me, don't read on. If you absolutely MUST have a 100% happy ending, then continue on… if you dare *evil cackling* ^_^
Angel stroked Buffy's sleeping body. She had cried for hours and eventually drained herself of all emotions and energy, quickly conking out.
"No," Buffy began to whimper. "NO! NO, NO, NO!" Buffy began to scream. Angel pulled her into an embrace as tears fell from her face. She slowly opened her eyes as she cried harder.
"Nightmares?" Angel asked softly. Buffy nodded slowly. Angel didn't bother asking what they were about. It was too painful for Buffy, and she'd probably never get over what had happened. Besides, he already could guess what they were about.
"Angel, this can't… it can't be like this!" Buffy cried. "In my dreams… I saw… something. It was… different. It wasn't anything I've ever seen or done before, but I wasn't a vampire. It felt so real, like I should be doing it, if this hadn't happened. Angel…"
"Buffy, they were just dreams," Angel said, trying to soothe her.
"They weren't. We have to find a way to make things right. I mean… what if…" Buffy took a deep breath. "What if Giles had smashed the statue in time? What if I had become myself before Spike turned me?"
"Buffy…"
"Please, Angel. I have to do something. I can't live in this world like this, knowing what I did," Buffy said.
Actually you can, Angel thought, you don't have a soul. But he didn't say it. He could never say something like that to Buffy.
"Ok," he agreed. Buffy smiled, reassured that things would be back to normal.
Buffy walked with Angel through the street. They were on the way to a Magic Shop, hoping that it would have a spell to reverse time or something of that effect.
Buffy burst into the shop and grabbed the shopkeeper by his neck, in game face.
"You'll tell me how I can turn back time and make it change," she growled, "or you will die."
"Buffy," Angel admonished. Buffy blushed guiltily and dropped the shopkeeper, returning to her normal face.
"Sorry," she said, "habit."
"Can we look through your spell books?" Angel asked the shopkeeper. He nodded hastily and ushered them to the books.
"Y-You might be able to f-find something in h-h-here," the shopkeeper stuttered, clearly still afraid. Buffy smiled at him as the shopkeeper practically ran to the back.
"There's nothing!" Buffy cried. "Now nothing will ever be right again!" The had been searching for hours, even though the shop should have closed by then. With a little… persuasion… on Buffy's part, the shopkeeper had let them stay later.
"I think I've found something," Angel said. "I can't believe I didn't think of it sooner… of course our case is a little different then most."
"What the hell are you rambling about, Angel?" Buffy asked.
"A vengeance demon," Angel said. "The grant wishes to scorned women. That's why I hadn't thought of it. But if we summon it…"
"It'll grant me my wish," Buffy whispered. "A wish for the world to be right. A wish that I never had become a vampire."
"The only problem is they only grant wishes to scorned women," Angel said. Buffy simply smiled.
"I think we can find a way."
"It's just so awful!" Buffy cried, wiping fake tears from her eyes. "I become a vampire for him, and he still wants nothing to do with me!"
Buffy had summoned the vengeance demon, Anyanka she said her name was, and had pretended that her boyfriend, a vampire, had dumped her. She became a vampire and he still didn't love her. Unfortunately, Buffy couldn't tell if Anyanka was buying it.
"Really?" Anyanka murmered. "Well, what do you want to do about that?"
"I wish that I had never become a vampire," Buffy whispered. Anyanka stared at her for a moment.
"Are you sure? I do great with warts on the toes. I could have that vamipre of yours crying for months. I can cast a plague of locusts on him, or maybe send him to a place where's it's always day and there's no shadows to lurk in," she offered.
"No," Buffy said. "I'm sure of my wish." Anyanka shrugged.
"Wish granted."
Giles smashed the statue, breaking it to thousands of tiny pieces.
Spike leaned down to bite Buffy but she kicked him back. It had worked. Anyanka had granted the wish, and Buffy wasn't a vampire.
Buffy ran to Angel and wrapped her arms around him. He hugged her with the same ferocity. They kissed passionately as the others stared at them.
"I don't think this is really the place for that," Xander said. Buffy snapped her head to him.
"Xander!" She ran towards him and embraced him tightly.
"Is there something wrong with you?" Cordelia asked.
"Cordelia!" Buffy ran towards Cordelia and did the same.
"Did someone forget to take their sanity pills this morning?" Cordelia asked. Buffy simply laughed as she and Angel made their way out of the factory. The wish had worked. The old world was gone, and now only Buffy and Angel could remember what horrid things had happened in it.
A/N: Ok, that's my happy ending. I don't really like this ending, but I'm still going to post it. I didn't write it for nothing. Please review!!!
