This Title Has Nothing To Do With The Story

Chapter Eight – The End – Part Two

Author's note: Did you really think that was the end? Would I do that to you? What sort of person do you think I am? The purpose of this chapter is to give closure to those who work it. So if you were happy with the way the last chapter ended then go no further. Stop. Right here. No more. This is it. End of the metaphorical line. If you are reading this then I will assume that you want to closure. Welcome. I hope you find what you are looking for. And if you don't…well…that's life. Anyway back to the story…

"Didn't mean what?" Asked Buffy.

Xander remained speechless but Buffy looked into his eyes and noticed that they weren't on her but on the wall behind. She turned around and saw the shadows. "Oh, crap."

The four extremely evil demons (Eed) stood in the doorway just staring at the two figures in front of them.

Finally someone spoke. "So, I take it you are the Slayer?" Said Eed4.

"And you the demons trying to destroy the world?" Replied Buffy.

"So." Said Eed4. "What now?"

"We fight, you lose and then I go have ice-cream." Said Buffy.

"Sounds like a nice plan. One problem with it though." Said Eed4.

"Oh, what is that?" Said Buffy.

"The ice-cream shops are shut." Said Eed4.

"That alright, I have some a home." Said Buffy.

"Okay are we just going to banter? Or is there going to be a fight?" Asked Eed2.

"Fight." Said Eed4 and Buffy together.

"Well, let's get it on." Said Eed2.

[Start of battle scenes]

Eed2 charged towards Buffy but she skilfully moved out of the way and managed to throw his flying body at the wall. Immediately Eed1 and 3 ran at Buffy, she jumped in the air and kicked them both in the face. This left her and Eed4 standing opposite each other. While this was happening Xander had got an axe out of a bag. He now threw this to Buffy. The demon seeing Buffy holding an axe pulled out his own weapon, a large sword. The two of them ran towards each other. After a lot of action scenes Buffy finally managed to cut off the demons head with the axe. While Buffy had been fighting, Xander had killed two of the unconscious demons but the last one came too and was now trying to kill him. Buffy turned round to see the demon hit Xander in the face knocking him out cold. He was about to go in for the kill when an axe appeared in the middle of his back. He fell down dead.

"Xander? Xander?" Buffy shouted at the unconscious body in her hands. "Can you hear me?"

He didn't move.

Author's note: If this were the actual TV show I would have ended the episode here.

A tear emerged from one of Buffy's eyes. It went down her cheek, passed her mouth and then fall off her face. It landed on Xander. He stirred. "Xander! Xander!"

"Buffy?"

"Xander!"

"Did you get them?"

"Yeah. The world is saved."

"That's nice."

"Are you okay?"

"Apart from the worst headache in known existence, I'm fine."

"Good. You kind of had me worried there."

"Sorry, next time I'll try not to get knocked unconscious."

"That is all I ask."

Xander slowly got to his feet and looked around. "What do you say we get out of here?"

"I say, good idea. Where shall we go?"

"I remember you saying something about buying me some ice-cream."

"I never said any such thing."

"Oh sorry my memory is a bit off since I received that massive blow to the head."

"Playing the guilt card? Alright fine, let's go get some ice-cream."

"You're treat?"

"My treat."

"Excellent."

"It almost seems like you got four demons to try and destroy the world so you could get free ice-cream."

"That sounds a little too intelligent for me."

Buffy smiled and Xander smiled back.

"Man, this is some nice ice-cream." Said Xander.

"You got that right."

There was silence as both of them ate their ice cream. Occasionally Xander made 'hmmm' type noise.

When the ice creams were finished Buffy turned to Xander and said, "So, what exactly were you going to say before?"

Author's note: This is the end of this chapter. It is what I consider a happy ending. I know that there are people out there who would argue with this. They would say that a happy ending would be Xander and Buffy getting together. I would be happy to continue this fan fiction and do such an ending, if the people want it. Alternatively I could write a completely different fan fiction and you could enjoy that. The choice is yours.
