Buffy left the magic shop, her spirits lifted great from when she arrived back in Sunnydale. She headed home with Willow and Giles, who was staying with Buffy till he returned to England.
She climbed the stairs realizing how tired she was, she walked into the bathroom to take a quick shower, when her emotions just took over and she collapsed next to the bathtub in sobs, she was alone, she could cry. The one thing that sparked Buffy's sudden breakdown was the memory of what happened in this bathroom the one thing that always haunted her and Spike.
"I'm gonna make you feel it"
Buffy knew Spike had just gone crazy that night, but she could never really get rid of that fear and sadness that she was overwhelmed with then, she remembered something:
"You always hurt the ones you love"
She closed her eyes and let more tears roll down her face and she walked into her bedroom and laid on her bed. She looked up at the ceiling thinking about everything that had had ever happened to her when it came to love and it always ended the same way, Angel, Riley... Spike, She was always going to be alone, she had no one. Buffy closed her eyes and cried herself into a dreamless sleep.
* * *
Spike watched Buffy fall asleep. He hated seeing her like this, he wanted to go hold her and kiss her tears away, tell her everything was going to be ok. Spike wanted to help her stop hurting, he turned from his broken lover and looked at Tara.
Spike: Why did she always keep me at a distance?
Tara: You know why, she did it because she didn't want things to end up the way they did
Spike looked at Tara confused.
Tara: She keeps everyone at a distance, because she doesn't want to lose them, she got too close to Angel and he lost his soul, she got too close to Riley and he left, she lost her mother, she almost lost her sister, and she almost lost her best friend...
Tara looked away from Spike sadness coming over her and Spike knew that Tara had known what went on with Willow. She shook it off and looked at him again.
Tara: and she tried not to get to close to you, but she did and you sacrificed yourself to save her and make her happy.
Spike: (angry with himself) Bloody Hell! it's all my fault, I kept the pattern going I made her hurt even more.
Tara: There's no point in blaming your self Spike, what's done is done and you may get another chance to change it
Spike: What can I do? How can I change it?
Tara: when the time comes Spike, when the time comes.

Dawn came home the next day, with the prophecies of Uther and a big grin on her face. She finally had someone who understood her, someone who actually liked, liked her and didn't think she was a freak.
Dawn had felt something with Conner, like a connection. She had never felt that way before... about anyone.
Everyone met at the Magic shop that day, to do some major research about the first Vampire.
Giles: (to Dawn) Did Wesley ask any questions about the book or tell you anything, like why calculations were done, or anything of any use to us?
Dawn: Not really he doesn't really know I took the book
Buffy: (sternly) Dawn I thought we talked about that
Dawn: Sorry, I thought you didn't want them asking any questions, anyway Wesley wasn't there to ask
Buffy: Ok, but you should have asked if we want you to get out of this klepto-phase
Willow and Giles started looking through the book and translating passages, while Buffy and Xander, did some work on the front of the shop, putting up the shelves and stuff. Dawn and Anya sat by the front counter looking through baby names books, trying to find the best names that went with Harris.
It wasn't until Giles' signature good lord, did anyone have any idea what the deal with the first vampire was, but they always knew that Good Lord wasn't good news.
Buffy: What's his deal Giles?
Giles: According to this book and the calculations, Uther was the very first vampire to walk to earth he was the one who mixed his blood with another to make more of his kind, it was said that the first slayer killed him
Buffy: The first slayer?
Giles: Yes, but the calculations make no sense and there is no way he can be brought back because, the master is gone
Xander: He's not really gone though, he is just bones right? He didn't really go all poofy
Buffy: He's right Giles, what if this Uther does rise again, can he be killed?
Giles: The only way for Uther to rise again is to mix blood with the master's bones and he will be reborn, but the factory that you destroyed the master's bones in is abandoned, so I suppose we have nothing to worry about
Buffy: Well just to make sure I think we should go get the master's bones and bury them again
Willow: I agree with Buffy, I really wouldn't want to come face to face with this guy
Xander: So we are going on a bone hunt?
* * *
By the old Factory, three construction workers, were getting ready to knock down the abandoned building. They were inside checking for any homeless people, when they found the skeleton
Worker #1: Hey guys get over here
His two companions walked over, to see scattered remains of the Master
Worker#2: Dude, the boss never said anyone was killed here
Worker#1: I know, should we clean it up?
Worker#3: Hell no just leave it there, so we can knock this thing over
Worker#1: (shrugs) Ok
Two of the workers went out to get the equipment ready, while Worker#2 who was the youngest, stayed behind, he looked at the skull, which was pretty bashed up, but the top of the mouth was still attached to the skull, he saw the fangs
Worker#2: Wow! look at that
He got down on his knees and touched the fangs, which were still sharp, he pricked his finger.
Worker#2: Damn!
He shook his hand, and blood went all over the place splattering over the skull and the floor. He got up and went out side to his co-worker and didn't notice the bones reassembling themselves.
AN: OK I know another short chapter, but maybe more reviews will give me more inspiration to make them longer. Well in the next Chapter Buffy and the gang are too late and Uther had risen. PLEASE REVIEW!!

*Here's my little thought, as a lot of you know season seven might be the last season of Buffy, hopefully it wont be. I was watching the episode of Buffy Innocence from season two and Angelus said this to Spike about Killing Buffy: To kill this girl... you have to love her.
This sorta got me thinking about how Joss will end the show, another quote also made me think that my theory might have more of a chance of coming true, I saw the episode Dead Things from season six for the second time and this quote also stuck out and it was often repeated: Buffy: You always hurt the one you love.
So my theory is Joss might do something along the lines of Buffy killing Spike or Spike Killing Buffy, so I just thought I'd share that with everyone and just to get some people thinking and hey it might even spark some peoples minds to write a good Fanfic about it so, just to get you wondering, thanks for reading and Chapter thirteen will be up soon if I get reviews!!!!! See ya then!
