Wacky Disclaimer:
Xander opened his eyes and gasped. His body felt like it was on fire, his arms
felt really painful, and he had sand in his hair and his mouth was really dry.
He quickly stood ignoring the pain in his arm and wiped his mouth, which was
encrusted with sand and cracked. Xander looked at his surroundings and from
that it was all sand as far as the eye could see and a few cactuses were
around.
Xander: Damn it!! Of all places it
had to be the damn desert!!
Emma: Awww! What's wrong with the
desert?
Xander looked surprised and turned around to see the whole SG wearing turbans
and sitting around what looked like a camp fire as they roasted something.
Spike: 'Ey mate you finally woke.
Got to say Harris you sleep like the dead.
Willow and Druscilla now a ware of his present turned around and Dru waved at
him what looked like a marshmallow on a stick as Willow got up and walked over
to him a turban appeared in her hand and Xander gratefully took it.
Xander: Thanks Wills.
Xander and Willow walked back over and sat around the camp fire and everyone
sung songs shared ghost story and told joke as they ate marshmallows.
Aily is wondering around the desert with an expression of
wonder on her face.
Rob: And then Mike was like you have
a date with God! And then I told him that's not God that's just the writer!
Courtney: Hehe…I can't believe Mike
thought May-Belle was God! I mean they are nothing alike!
Bryan: Yes that was all right and
good but aren't we forgetting something I mean were almost running out of time.
The whole group gasps as their face fills with terror
Aily: What do

us. IT"S SUMMERTIME!!!
Willow: NO!! He's right someone got

Aily: Sure whatever ya say man,

She punches him softly. Then just smiles.
Aily: Time for the show, entra Kenya mias. [~*~*~*~]
It All Started With…
Also at four o' clock in the mourning Courtney rolled over in the bed she shared with Dawn. She groaned light as her wet hair tickled her nose. Courtney's face was beat red and cover with sweat as different emotions played on her face. It was obvious that she to was also having a nightmare.
{Dream Sequence}
Courtney knew she was older…maybe four years older. That makes her eighteen-years-old. She was hiding…along with some others…maybe six others. She looked to her left and saw Bryan, Spike, Buffy, David, Daniel, and a young black girl with green eyes…she knew she knew this girls name…Kendra maybe? No…Kenya. But that didn't seem as important as listening for something did.
"Why don't you come out and play." A female voice called out as she step towards their hiding place.
"David, Daniel run. NOW!" Spike yelled at the nine year old boys.
"But uncle Spike…we can fight!" David pleaded as Daniel stood.
Uncle Spike? He was their uncle? But her mother and father didn't have any bothers or sisters and she didn't have grandparents.
"David Spike said leave! Leave before things get ugly just run!" The girl Kenya said with a heavy accent.
Courtney blinked as David and Daniel left in a flash and something like a vision hit her.
[Vision]
Her friends Ti, Chester, a blond girl with slight brown hair, a red head, and another red head were standing around the fire.
"Anya pass the herbs to Ti" The red head said as the other red head now known as Anya passed Ti the herbs.
Shortly after Anya passed Ti the herbs the blond girl and Chester begun to read from a book in some unknown language, as Anya and the other red head lit some candles. Ti walked around the flame in a predatory matter hold the now smoking herbs and begun to whisper in ancient Latin as her hand begun to glow.
"Goddess Moiyan hear our plea, fill us with your power! Listen to our cry; give us the power need to defeat our enemy! Hear our call!" The blond and Chester yelled as they finished the spell and they begun to glow.
The blond Wicca smiled as she glowed a mellow blue, and Chester's body hummed with a bright golden color. Ti turned around as the fire vanished and pulled her new acquired hood to her cloak down.
"Well done." Ti said with a small smile, "Now, let's get this party start" She continued grabbing her staff as the others procecced to grab theirs.
[End Vision]
"You understand dearest William, It's not that I consider my dearest grandchildren a threat. I want them on my team." The blond woman laughed as she walked towards Spike.
It was obvious she miss something during the vision or whatever she had. From what she guessed this blond woman that looked awful lot like the blond women from her vision with shorter hair had found their hiding place. 'Okay this, chick must be the enemy or whatever' Courtney thought as she glanced around the room to see everyone in fighting stance. From what she could gather this woman was very powerful, and evil and she had a lot freaky looking minions.
"Don't you see!" She cried as she twirled her staff "They have unbelievable power!" She continued her speech with a British accent as they watched like this was routine. "They can make objects appear out of nothing!" Buffy sighed as she listen to the big bad's speech "And they the power of the elements! The power of the elements is a great thing to have on the side of evil!" She yelled as her minions got into fighting stance "Take that with the strength they have and I can have them rule by my side." She ended with a smile.
"Are we gonna fight now or do you intend to bore us to death." Buffy asked smiling as she twirled her hair.
The blond sorceress let out an inhuman growl as her minions scurried everywhere and begun to fight the new team of Slayerettes. She looked to her left to see Buffy and the girl Kenya fair pretty well fighting those freakish monsters.
"You know…" Buffy said as she threw a punch at the gray demon "You really…" She sent a spin kick to his head "Need…" She ducked his terribly slow punch "To use…" She grabbed his head "Some goddess damn mouthwash!" Buffy proceeded to twist the poor demon's neck and he fall to the floor with a thud.
"I've been hangin' around Tara and Will to much." Buffy muttered as another demon rushed towards her.
'Wow! She good!' Courtney thought as she turned her head to Kenya.
Her movements were as graceful as a lioness as she fought. With one roundhouse she took out two of the blond woman's minions by slamming them into a piece of broken wood. She moved in deadly silence as she went after her next victim, her green eyes flashed with wicked intent as she staked her next victim and punched the next one. Kenya was fast and deadly as placed kicks in just the right places.
The next victim tried to use a metal pipe against; she ducked under the pipe, grabbing it as she went under. With that movement she wrenched the pipe out of the girl minion's hand. Courtney heard Spike laugh as Kenya said softly, "Just like my Aunt, huh Spike."
One minute the minion was there, the next there was only a pipe and dust. Courtney saw a new minion creeping up on Kenya, but before she could call out to tell her, Kenya rose from her kneeling position, turned and swung the pipe into the vampire's face. It was brought down into his head and then slammed into his heart pinning him to the floor. He exploded into dust as she twisted his heart out of its cavity.
Courtney blinked surprised 'Man now she really good!' She thought turning her head to Bryan 'Talk about girl power!' She grinned.
"Damn do…" Bryan said as he ducked and the demon's sword blade missed his hair "All demon…" He who had a habit of talking like Buffy did while fighting a demon said twirling his sword "Have to…" Bryan continued as he deflected the demons blade "Look so…" He swung his sword around aiming for the scaly demons head "Fuckin' ugly?" He finished jumping back as the demon head and blood flew all over the place and a bolt of lighten hit the demon's head.
Courtney shudder as she seen the demons head come off and extended her hand. A bolt of lightening raged out and stuck the demons head causing her to jump back.
"The power of the elements my sweet" The blond said coming up behind her.
"Enchantress!" Courtney hissed as the Enchantress's sword point touched her chin.
"Is that anyway to greet your great grandma?" She asked mocking hurt.
"Yuck! Don't remind me bitch!" Courtney spat as a black sword appear in her hands with a burst of flame.
The Enchantress smiled and ripped her emerald green dress (You know the middle aged dresses the Dru wears) Throwing the green fabric to the floor her bare feet prattled backwards as Courtney stood glaring at her.
"Come on child let me see what you have to show." The Enchantress said raising her blade to her face.
"All right" Courtney replied twirling her sword between her fingers.
There was a clash of swords and then they were off. The Enchantress went to strike but was successfully parried by Courtney. Both of their movements were fast and furious as their sword met in battle.
It looked like the Enchantress had Courtney, "My dear, I hope you enjoyed being with your uncle and his girlfriend, because you won't be seeing them for much longer." She paused as she trapped Courtney in a corner, "At least not seeing them and still liking them."
"That's what you think!" Courtney said. Her sword shot out slicing her great great grandmother's cheek. The woman reeled back giving Courtney to get out of the corner. The Enchantress was no longer able to keep up with Courtney's strikes; she fell to the ground.
Courtney grinned as her sword pierced the Enchantress's heart and the Enchantress gasped, and in an instant the Enchantress begun to change in to something else. Her short blond hair became to braids one black the other white. Her ripped emerald dress became a long sleeve button down shirt and a short skirt. And her ice-cold blue eyes became dark and hallow black.
"You killed me." The young eighteen-year-old gasped
Courtney stepped back scared
"Tina, I didn't mean to! I didn't know!" Courtney gasped still hold the swords handle.
"You left me all alone! TO DIE!" Tina cried
"Tina, I'm sorry…" Courtney said as a few tears slipped down her face.
"Don't be sorry just find me!" She growled as she changed back into the Enchantress.
Courtney stepped back and the Enchantress's body fell to the floor with a dull thud. 'It was just your imagination' Courtney told herself turning around to look at the gang. Buffy smiled at her as she leaned on Spike for support, Kenya dusted the last vampire and sent her a smile, Ti waved at her as she and Chester held up their staffs, and Dawn and a guy with brown hair bust in with David and Daniel carrying boxes of Doughnut. And lastly she turned to see Bryan grinning at her, she grinned back and waved her at him sword triumphantly. While he thrust his sword in the air and let out a war cry along with Buffy, Spike, Chester, Dawn, and Kenya. She stared at Bryan looking for something as she seen something came up behind him. She gasped has she seen something tear through his shirt and his face contort in pain. Bryan eyes welled up and he fell to the floor and Tina grinned at her.
"Payback's a bitch" Tina grinned as Courtney fell to the floor and tears poured down her face. Bryan was dead. Gone forever.
{Dream Sequence}
"BRYAN!!" Courtney sobbed as she bolted up from the bed (Does that sound weird?) Dawn eyes quickly opened as she heard echoing screams and sounds all too loud. She turned sitting up to see Courtney face beat red sitting up and sobbing like no body business. Her clothes that she burrowed were plastered to her body and her hair looked like it was glued to her face. She looked nothing like the girl Spike had brought yester day. The girl who looked at her like she was crazy when she explained the whole Hellmouth thing, the girl that believed her fake story on Mono.
*Flash Back*
Dawn blanched taken aback
"Yo-you heard that?" She stammered
"Yes now what did she mean?" Courtney asked leaning over a bit
"Uh…she meant…um…well-you-see-my-sister-is-a-vampire-slayer-and-I'm-this-glowy-key-thing-that-a-Hell-Goddes-wanted-to-use-to-get-home-and-she-opened-the-portal-too-all-dementions-so-the-only-way-to-close-it-was-for-my-blood-to-stop-but…" Dawn quickly explained but stopped to take a breath
"Buffy-wouldn't-let-me-so-she-jumpped-in-the-portal-to-close-it-and-she-died…then-a-wicth-Willow-did-a-spell-and-brought-her-back-frrom-the-dead" Dawn end panting
Courtney looked at the girl crazily as if saying; "You expect me to believe that crap!" fell back on the bed. She sighed and slapped a hand to her head, then burst out laughing.
"Okay tell me the truth, girlie" Courtney said laughing so hard her cheeks started to hurt.
Courtney's face suddenly fell as Dawn burst out in nervous laughter
"Hehe. Just joking with you their Courtney!" Dan laughed, "My sister, Buffy had…uh…Mono! It like puts you in a deep sleep and it's kinda like your dead." Dawn said nervously.
"Do you think they would have wanted my to have fun and laugh?" Courtney asked out of the blue.
"Huh?"
"My family, do you think they would have wanted my to have fun and laugh?" Courtney repeated sadly
"Oh! Of course they would they would want you to go on with your life and have fun! They would want you to fall in love get married and have lots and lots children!" Dawn replied patting her on the back "I knew my mom would want me and Buffy to do the same so, I realized that my mom would still be in my heart and no one can take her place but I still have to live my life."
"Thanks girl, I'm sorry about your mom. And then you're sister and the mono thing it must be tuff."
*End Flash Back*
"Courtney!" Dawn yelled taking Courtney in her arms.
Courtney laid her head in Dawn's shoulder, sobbing and sniffling as Dawn rocked her back and forth. Her mind was racing as the events from the dream played over in her head. 'BRYAN! Bryan! Bryan…Bryan!!!!!!!' Her mind screamed as she heard foots run across the hall.
"Dawnie!?! Is everything all right in there?" Willow asked coming into the room.
"Bryan!" Courtney screeched rushing out of Dawn's embrace and standing up "Where's your phone!" She sobbed
Dawn looked surprised; she really wanted to ask who Bryan was but calling whoever seemed important.
"I have one right here." Dawn said pointing to a small green cordless phone.
Courtney reached for the phone swiping it off the base and quickly begun to dial some numbers. Willow looked at Dawn confused as she sat down on the bed.
"Dawnie who is that?"
"Spike brought her and her brothers yester day. Her family was attacked and she doesn't know where she live, she just moved here." Dawn replied causally
"Oh, er…why does she look like someone locked her in a steam room?" Willow asked referring to her beat red skin, wet hair, and her clothes which where plastered to her body
"I think she had a bad dream" Dawn said as Courtney begun to speak.
"Hello?"
"Courtney?" Bryan asked."Yeah, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, Ti and Chester are to. What about you?""Uh…nothing…are you sure your okay?" Courtney concerned.
"Yep…I'm sure…what's happening over there you like it?" Bryan asked.
"Uh…it's a little…crazy…I'm not sure if I like it thou."
"Did anything happen to make you call me so late?"
"Yeah I had a weird dream you got hurt…the same thing happened in the car too. But…that dream wasn't about you and it was different and it came true so I just wanted to make sure you were okay." She frowned
"Uh…a dream? Er…I go to call Ti…I'll talk to you later. Goodbye!" Bryan said before hanging up the phone
Courtney frowned turning off the phone she put it on the base and growled. She walked back to the bed and sat next to Dawn she glared at the floor and crossed her arms huffily. 'How dare…that…that…SELFISH PRICK… hang up on me when I'm worried about him!' She thought angrily. Her eyes blazed orange and one of Dawn's poster's of the N*sync lit on fire. Dawn and Willow jumped up shocked and begun to try to put the fire out. Shocked Courtney eyes widen as her head turned towards the poster and she gasped.
"Opps" She muttered shocked
Dawn and Willow's head turned towards her as the fire went out and they blinked. Both looked very surprised as they stared at Courtney with wide eyes. (Dose that sound funny?) Dawn finally came to her senses and screeched "BUFFY!"
"What is it Dawn… Oh my GOD!!" Buffy yelled in surprise.
Spike came running in, "Slayer what is it… Oh God! Bloody hell, what happened here?"
Dawn stared at Courtney and pointed, "She was talking on the phone, whoever she was talking to made a comment or hung up on her. Then she got angry and that happened." Dawns said as she pointed at her poster.
"What happened?" Buffy and Spike said at the same time in disbelief.
"I burned her poster."
"Um, yeah we established that, the question is how did you slay the evil poster?" Buffy asked.
There was a firm hey from Dawn teen and an appreciative laugh and smile from a party with bleached blond hair. "I knew you had taste slayer."
Buffy turned back towards Spike shook her head and rolled her eyes. But as she was turning back around Spike caught the grin she was trying to hide.
"So how did you do it nibblet?" Spike asked.
"Well…I don't know. I just got angry that Bryan blew me off like that then it felt like something snapped inside of me and it felt like my body was on fire then next thing I know their tryin' to put the flame out on her poster."
"It doesn't sound like this is the first time this has happened 'bit. You know if this has happened 'fore?" Spike asked concerned
"Well… uh… does it count if I was dreaming?" Courtney asked with a raised eyebrow
Buffy looked surprised, as did the rest of the gang as Willow merely nodded with a strange gleam in her eye.
"Well it all started with my dream…"
