"Angel said they got Faith to come. So everyone should be here in a couple of hours." Willow said coming into the Summers House after closing the Magic Box.

"Faith is coming too," Xander groaned on the couch. "Great CC and Faith in the same car coming back to Sunnydale to relive my awkward high school years. Why don't you just invite Anya to come too? I'm sure she's not too busy reeking vengeance in Europe."

"That's actually not a bad idea." Buffy said entering from the kitchen. "She can come back with Giles unless she'd rather teleport."

"I was being sarcastic." Xander informed her.

"Well don't do that in front of desperate women." Willow replied laying on top of him.

"Desperate women call for immediate attention." He smiled kissing her.

"Thanks I need that." She smiled as she returned the kiss and they deepened it.

"Where the hell is Spike?" Buffy asked. "He was supposed to be back from Willie's an hour ago."

"Maybe he ran into some old friends." Spike said coming into the room with enough bruises to indicate that the old friends were no longer friends.

"Are you okay?" Buffy rushed over.

"I'll live or stay dead or whatever," Spike assured her. "Listen, Willie is really freaked, whatever you saw in that prophecy is coming fast. Most of his regulars have already left town. It's bad Pet."

"The words duh come to mind. The question is what do we do," Buffy asked.
