TIMELINE: Season 6. After Buffy broke up with Spike, but before he slept with Anya.

DEDICATION: To all the Spuffy fans out there!.

A/N: Thanks for all the great reviews.

BloodLuvinGirl: FINALLY! I was going insane not knowing where it came from :) I hope you like what I came up with.

2- Quiet? In Sunnydale? Yeah right!

"*BLOODY HELL!*" the bleached vampire yelled, obviously annoyed. He looked back at the skinny man standing just a few feet away and shaking in terror. "Run you stupid git!" The man rapidly obeyed and ran with all his strength until he was no longer in sight.





Spike directed his attention once again to the Slenchac demon that laid dead on the wet grass. "Thought you could beat *me* did ya'?" he tightened his grip on the large axe in his right hand and picked up the bottle of whiskey he had carefully hidden minutes before the fight.

Spike look down at his duster, suddenly realizing he was covered in green slime. "This is what I get for helping the bloody bugger!" he let a small grunt and walked the distance towards his crypt. Quietly he entered the dark space, placing his axe down and opening the bottle of alcohol.

He felt a quiver in the back of his neck as his vampire senses detected someone else in the room. For a second he thought it was Buffy, maybe to talk to him, or just to be with him.

Then he recognized the scent "Does big sis know you're here?" he asked slightly amused.

The brunette slowly stepped out of the shadows. "yeah, sure. And she baked you blood covered brownies too." He chuckled loudly.

"That's not all impossible, her cooking is a fast and easy way to get a bloke poisoned" Dawn giggled, visible relaxing now that Spike was with her.

"So, I haven't seen ya in a while. Did you and Buffy fight or something?"

"Course Nibblet, when aren't we fighting!" Dawn giggled again. "good point"

"You shouldn't be here pet, you know she hate's when you come"

"No she doesn't! she likes you!" Spike glared at her. "Okay, maybe not *like*. But she doesn't mind me being here, and she's patrolling tonight so it wont matter anyways"

"And she'll be worried sick if she doesn't find you curled up in bed when she gets home"

"Spike, let me stay a while. Pleaseeeee!"

"No can do luv. Come on then, ill walk you home" Dawn pouted widely but decided to give up anyway.

"Fine. Let's go. But Spike?"

"what?"

"could you do something about the green goo!"

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

"You done yet?"

"no"

"One mississippi, two mississippi, three mississippi. How about now?"

"no"

Silence.

"Now?"

"NO!"

"Jimmy would ya shut up and let 'em finish"

"Sorry" the younger vampire mumbled. It was bad enough he had to wait, but to be staring at a big ugly guy doing weird voodoo stuff. Not the best entertainment.

"Aislikta somona parinis pa, I call to thee, master of darkness, ruler of the undead. Aisliris senta mones set. Listen to my words, listen to my plea."

"This gonna take much longer?" Jimmy whispered to Carl, making sure only his Sire heard him.

"Relax. Only a few more of the chanting thingies and will be ready to go."

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

"700 evil vampires on the wall, 700 evil vampires. You take one down, poke him around. 699 evil vampires on the wall." The slayer sang as she walked through the silent graveyard.

A hole day of serving junk food to hipper little kids and it was finally time to blow of some steam. Now all she had to do was actually *find* some vampires.

"Never here when you need em" she muttered to herself. Recognizing the path her feet had unexpectedly taken, she shook her head and turned around. "No going to Spike's crypt, no going to Spike's crypt."

She took her stake from her pocket and kept walking. "699 evil vampires on the wall, 699 evil vampires. You take one down, poke him around. 698 evil vampires on the wall."

"*This* is patrolling." A female voice said from behind her. She turned back to see Dawn and Spike walking towards her.

Buffy looked directly at Spike, flashbacks of his body racing trough her mind.

"hey"

"hey" he answered quietly.

"What are you doing here?"

"Making sure I got home safe." Dawn said defensively.

"Oh. Thanks."

"Didn't do it for you. Did it for the bit here."

"I know" Dawn looked from her sister to Spike as they each spoke.

"What's with the weird vibe?" Buffy tore her gaze from the vampire and looked at Dawn.

"Vibe? What vibe? There's no vibe."

"Oh please, you two are all vibe-y"

"Slayer?" Spike interrupted.

"What!"

"You got a weapon?"

"yeah. Why?"

"There's a nasty vamp behind you"

Instinctively she turned around sending a kick to the vampires head. He ducked and quickly punched her. Buffy blocked his blow and hit him hard on the stomach. The vampire gasped in pain and the slayer took the opportunity to kick him, this time on the chest, and send him flying towards the ground. Before the vamp could react, Buffy launched herself on top of him and placed her stake trough his heart.

Dawn was grinning as the vampire was dusted. "Good one Buff. Wasn't that great Spike?" She looked at the blonde vampire who was staring at the sky, and odd look on his face.

"um.. Spike? You okay?" he didn't move.

"Spike?" His mouth opened dimly as his eyes closed and his body fell to the floor.

"SPIKE!" Dawn kneeled beside him yelling his name. Buffy rushed to his side and tried fiercely to wake him up. "Spike! Spike wake up!"

"Spike"

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The beast got up stretching his legs. The vampires approached him slowly. "So?" asked Jimmy, who was almost ready to stake himself from the wait.

The demon smirked earning confused looks from both creatures.

"It has been completed"
