Buffy smiled as spike sat down beside her. "Spike. We need to talk." Spike's smile faltered when he heard the worry in her voice. "Buffy what's wrong? Is there something wrong with the baby?" buffy put her finger to his lips. "No. The baby is fine. But we do need to talk about what is going to happen once the baby's here. I mean this baby has been in me for 7 months now and I have had the same question whispering to me since I was about 3 months pregnant. I want the baby to be normal but how on earth will you and I provide that?" spike looked at her stomach which was getting bigger everyday.

"We can't provide that. We never will be able to. The baby is going to be different no matter what we do. How do you know that the baby is not going to be different without our help?" buffy looked over at him in shock. "You mean he might have our strength?" spike nodded. "Or other things." He pointed to his teeth and she felt a shiver run through her. "You mean he might be a vampire?" spike looked down to her stomach again.

"He might be." Buffy shivered again and leaned onto his shoulder. "Spike. I'm scared." Spike put his hand against her cheek and she lifted her head to look him in the eyes. "Everyone is sometime."

Buffy leaned over and kissed him gently but she pulled back when she felt a hard jab in the stomach. "Ouch. Take it easy kiddo." She chuckled. Spike smiled and put his hand on her stomach. The baby stopped kicking and buffy smiled at spike. "I guess he likes you." She whispered before kissing him again.

Buffy gasped as Tara ran into the living room. " Spike Big problem. There is some Vampire charging through the bronze killing every teenager there. He has the exits blocked off and the police can not get in and nobody can get out." Spike stood quickly. "Dawn's there with her buddies."

Buffy looked up at him. "Oh I have to help." Spike pushed her back down onto the sofa. "Buffy stay here." She shook her head. "No it's dawn I have to help." Spike kissed her gently on the fore head. "Buffy stay here. Think of the baby." Buffy sighed and nodded her head. "Fine. Get her out of there and kill that vampire." Spike nodded and rushed past Tara.

Dawn gasped as she saw her friend Janice being bitten. Dawn ducked under a table hoping and praying that the vampire would not find her. She had been hanging around buffy so much that she probably had the smell of a slayer all around her.

Spike climbed up to the window and looked in. The bronze was filled with teenagers tonight. He slowly picked open the window and climbed in onto the railing of the balcony. All the people had been herded downstairs from what he could tell. He looked around and saw willow lying on the floor knocked out. She had a large scratch on her head, which had been bleeding but was now starting to close. He stalked down the steps to find Dawn hopefully before the vampire did. ______________________________________________________________________

Dawn screamed as the table was pulled away and the vampire's cold fingers grabbed her by the neck and pulled her up. "Yummy a nice slayer." He raised her neck to her mouth and stopped. "Your not the slayer." He roared and threw her to the floor before grabbing her by the hair. "But you smell like one. I bet the slayer would love to get her hands on you again." He growled and then pulled her onto the stage where everyone could see. "Now see here!" he roared. "Where ever you are little slayer you better save your little friend before I decide she'd make a nice little snack."

Dawn screamed in pain as the vampire slapped her hard. "Come on little hero. Where are you?" Dawn scrambled back as spike knocked the vampire to the ground. The vampire shivered in fear and tried to run but spike pinned him down and staked him in anger. Spike stood and dawn ran into his arms.

"Spike thank god you came." Spike pulled back from her and held her at arms length. "Listen Dawn we need to get willow and go. Buffy will die of worry if we're not back soon." Dawn nodded and the crowd parted in fear and respect as they headed towards Willow. Spike picked willow up and dawn moved towards Janice. "Spike…" she started but the bartender moved to Janice. "Go. I'll take care of her." Dawn nodded and followed after spike that had already kicked down the door and was waiting outside.

Buffy paced back and forth. "Where was he?" Tara smiled as she patted the step she was sitting on. "Come on Buffy sit down. I know he'll help them." Buffy wrung her hands nervously. "What if he doesn't? Then my baby will grow up strange and fatherless. Buffy jumped as spike came in and laid Willow down on the couch. Tara ran over and put her hand over willow's fore head. "Heal." She whispered. Willow sat up quickly and gasped. "What? Huh?' she whispered. Tara smiled and hugged her tightly.

Buffy ran into spike's arms and kissed him on the cheek. "I thought you were gone." She whispered. He smiled and brushed her hair out of her face. "I would not leave you." She kissed him long and deep as dawn sat back on the steps giggling.
