RATING: PG-13.
PAIRINGS: Mentions of Spike and Buffy.

FEEDBACK: I'd love it.
DISCLAIMER: Joss owns all the Buffy characters. I own the songs they sing.

"Reprise"

Written by: Doctor Strangelove

EXT. OUTSIDE OF SUNNYDALE - NIGHT

[We see the Welcome to Sunnydale sign and hold on it for a few moments. Suddenly a figure on a motorcycle comes crashing into the sign, knocking it over and himself off the motorcycle at the same time.]

FIGURE

I always forget about that bleeding sign.

[The figure pulls off his helmet and it's revealed to be Spike.]

SPIKE [cont'd]

Every single time I come back to this hell hole, I hit that damn sign. You'd think I'd have learned by now.

[Spike climbs back on his motorcycle and starts driving off. The camera angle changes to in front of him, like he's driving straight at the camera. Hard rock music begins to play in the background. Spike, hearing the music looks around and then just shrugs it off. That's when he begins to sing.]

SPIKE [cont'd]

Now that I'm back in town, things are gonna change.
No longer will I be considered mentally deranged.
I'm complete now, I have filled up the hole.
I'm gonna show Buffy now, now that I've got a soul.

But I won't be a poof like Angel, if that's what you're thinking.

[Suddenly gets a weird look on his face like he just realized what was going on.]

And what the bloody hell is with all this singing?

[Spike just shrugs it off and keeps going.]

I've become the old Spike again, things are back in whack,
I'm gonna show them all now, now that the Big Bad's back.

The Big Bad's back,
And I'm here to stay.
And you can bet your ass,
That bitch is gonna pay.

Though I may not be evil, I'm sure as hell a badass,
You won't find me hanging out with the upper class.
Now that I'm back, I'm gonna have myself a ball,
I'm gonna show Buffy, hell I'll show them all.

They said old Spike had gone soft,
With this chip inside my head.
Anyone says it now,
And they're gonna wish they were dead.

Even without a soul, I could be sweet and kind,
What the hell was I thinking, must have lost my mind.
But now that it's been restored, I can still be the same old Spike,
The one they all hated to love, and loved to dislike.

Though I may not be evil, I'm sure as hell one badass,
You won't find me hanging out with the upper class.
Now that I'm back, I'm gonna have myself a ball,
I'm gonna show Buffy, hell I'll show them all.

The Big Bad's back,
And I'm here to stay.
And you can bet your ass,
That bitch is gonna pay.
I'm gonna make that bitch pay.

[Spike's motorcycle has come across the graveyard and he drives in through the gates, weaving in and out of headstones.]

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not a killer,
And this line may be mostly filler,
But I'm not the softy, I was for so long.
If they thought that's me, gonna prove 'em wrong.

Though I may not be evil, I'm sure as hell a badass,
You won't find me hanging out with the upper class.
Now that I'm back, I'm gonna have myself a ball,
I'm gonna show Buffy, hell I'll show them all.

I don't need redemption, found it long ago,
Gonna mind Buffy again, make her love me so.
She treated me like crap, and she'll get what she deserves,
As for Harris and the others, they just got on my nerves.

Though I may not be evil, I'm sure as hell a badass,
You won't find me hanging out with the upper class.

The Big Bad's back,
And I'm here to stay.
The Big Bad's back,
And I'm here to say,
You can bet your ass,
That bitch is gonna pay.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not a killer,
And this line may be mostly filler,
But I don't need redemption, found it long ago.
I just need to be-

[Spike's motorcycle comes to a screeching halt in front of a very familiar crypt.]

Home.

[The music comes to halt almost as fast as the motorcycle did as Spike climbs off and coolly walks over to the crypt. We see him walk to the door and then we CUT TO:]

INT. SPIKE'S CRYPT - NIGHT

[We see a shadowy figure in one of the chairs barely lit by the light of the TV. The crypt door busts open and the figure suddenly sits up making a bowl of Cheetos fly everywhere. In the light we can now clearly see that's it's Clem.]

CLEM

Who's there!? I warn you, I'm a fierce demon and I-

[Clem see who it is standing in the doorway.]

CLEM [cont'd]

Spike?

SPIKE

Yeah, it's me.

CLEM

Oh, wow, you're back.

[We go to a close up of Spike at this and see him smiling cruelly.]

SPIKE

Yeah. I'm back.
