IMPORTANT NOTE!!
It's the end of term time, which means lots of work and projects to do. So don't panic if I don't update often. It just means I don't have the time to write and update. Don't worry! Around the middle of December, I will have enough time to write many new parts.
On to the fic!
Part 1 : Dark Soul
*Willow's POV*
They are scared of me. I can tell.
They should be.
Oh, I know what everybody thinks. Look at poor little Willow. Her girlfriend got killed and she lost it, trying to end the world and her pain at the same time. Now she's grieving and no longer the psycho that tried to kill us all. Parts of it are true.
Parts of it.
It was Tara's death that triggered it. All the power bubbling below the surface, just waiting to explode. At first, I just wanted revenge on Warren. But when I skinned him alive, I realized I couldn't stop there. The rush of holding someone's life in your hands. you have to try it to understand. Now I know why Faith chose the dark side.
I controlled it for Xander's sake. I could never hurt him, no matter who or what I was and will be. He was the first person to love me. No matter what, he will always possess a part of my heart. My dark heart.
I promised to Giles I would go to England with him to learn with a coven. I did that promess because I know it's what he wanted to hear. In fact, I have absolutely no intent to meet the coven and learn to control my power. I've already played with black magic. The temptation is too great to stop now. I can't give up the incredible sense of power I've felt when dealing with the Dark Arts. I don't care if it swallow me and I drown in it. It's what I want. I want the darkness to possess me.
So I'm leaving with Giles and Dawn to England. I'll get a taxi and tell the watcher I'm going to the coven while he meets the Headmaster of the magical school Dawn is going to live in. I didn't know such place existed.
When Giles going to get at the coven, I will be long gone. I won't let all that power go to waste. It was a gift from the higher beings and I'm going to use it. I won't let anybody control my destiny again. No more playing goody goody wicca Willow Rosenberg. I have too much darkness in me to try and forget it. My friends just tried to ignore it when they saw my doppleganger. I won't try to push back the darkness any longer. I'm going to embrace it.
And I know there is one man who can help me do that.
* * *
That's it. I've just bid goodbye to Dawn and Giles. I've called a taxi and I'm going nowhere near the coven. I've just made reservation in an hotel with a false credit card number. Thanks god for my hacking ability. I've got a place to stay, money and my laptop. That's all I need to find the man who can help me.
When I plunged head first into the Dark Arts, I could feel his presence and his power even across the Atlantic ocean. Danm, his powerful! I can still feel him, oozing of black magic. It calls to me. My darkness calls for his.
The only thing I have to do now is to stay away from the coven and no go anywhere that Giles would go. The last thing I need is to run into him. I pray I never need to use my power on him. Because I will if he gets in the way. again.
The world better look out. Red is feeling like being a bad girl.

*Giles' POV*
Danm it! Danm it! Damn it! How could I be so stupid to let her go?
I thought she really was going to the coven. How could I thought the contrary? So I let her go. I brought Dawn to Diagon Alley to buy her school supplies, then got us a room at the Leaky Cauldron. I left for the muggle world after supper to call the coven to see how Willow was doing.
She never got there.
I don't know if she's in trouble or if she knew what she was doing. Damn it! If she's hurt, I'll never forgive myself. It's me who let her alone. I should have brought her myself to the coven.
Dawn's been frantic since I told her. She's really worried. I lied to her. I told her that I found out what hotel she had registered in so I could go check on her in the morning. Of course, there's no trace of a Willow Rosenberg in any hotel I've checked in. But I couldn't tell that to Dawn. I don't want her day ruin. She's taking the Hogwarts in the morning and I don't want her to worry. I'll take care of finding Willow.
Maybe I should talk to Albus. 'Maybe' isn't even an option. I'm definitly going to talk to him. I can't let Willow walk around without protection in England. She's not safe. There is a war brewing in the magical world. Who knows what could happen to her. Oh! I'm not worried about her getting killed. I'm more worried about what she could do to the unfortunate soul who would dare attack her.
But most of all, I'd better find her before someone else does. Someone who may seek her darkness.
