HEY!!!!!! Fanifiction is finally back up, so here is my long awaited (yeah right!) 7th chapter. I've been trying to get the chapters a bit longer, but it doesn't work, so I'm afraid you'll just have to be patient with what you get. I'll try to upload quickly.

"Spike honey? Where are you? Oh, in here. Look! I got it working!"

Willow was holding a large device that looked like a metal detector.

"See. You put these googles on, and when the machine bleeps, it tells you where she's been recently. And these goggles show traces of heat so we can tell how long ago she was there!" "That's great pet, but she's gonna be far away. And we'll need more than just us two if we really want to find her." "That's ok. I've phoned Giles. He and Tara will be over here shortly." "What about Anya? Dawn? She'll want to know." "Anya said she'll be here in a minute. And I don't know where Dawn is. We'll find her once we've found Buffy."

The door of the crypt opened, and Anya came in.

"I'm here. But I'm not sure I like this After what she did. she won't want to come back. (Quietly) And I know I don't want her to." "Anya," said Willow, "Come on. She may be in trouble." "SO??! She killed Xander! She killed him. I. don't like her."

Willow looked away.

"Anya. Xander's been dead 14 yrs now. Buffy's sorry. I know she is. It was an accident."

Anya opened her mouth to say something, but stopped when the door opened. There stood Tara, and just behind her was Giles. In his wheelchair.

"Hi." Called Tara. "Hey. What happened? Why didn't you tell us?" "Willow calm down," croaked Giles, "This happenned a long time ago. I was jumped by a Gregorshian demon 13 yrs ago. We fought and he beat me. I was lucky to get away."

Tara looked uncomfortable, and opened her mouth to say something, but stopped when Giles shopt her a look.

"Well. the trackers over there. Spike can show it to you."

Spike, Giles and Anya went into the other room, and Willow and Tara sat down on the couch.

"Its been a long time." Said Willow. "Yes too long." "What have you been doing?" "Not much. Josh is staying with a friend." "Yes. Tara. Is that what really happened? I don't mean to be. but you looked." "OH WILLOW! I shouldn't tell you this, but it was Buffy who." "WHAT?" "Willow, please be quiet. If Rupert finds out I told you this, he'll be mad. Anyway, it wasn't Buffy's fault. It was quite soon after Xander, and I guess she was confused." "My God. I can't believe Buffy would do that. What if she's still like that?" "Willow, wait. There's more. Before Josh, we had another child, a girl, called Sarah." "You never told me." "I know. That was because 2 days after Buffy attacked Giles, she killed Sarah. Giles got so mad that I thought he was going to kill her. But the point is, I don't think Giles is over it. Every time he hears Buffys name, he tenses. I think he might be dangerous." "You think he might try to kill Buffy? Tara, no. He wouldn't do that. Would he? Tara?"

Didya like it? Very dramatic huh? And don't worry, there's gonna be plenty more where that came from. Please remember to R&R! Next chapter will be posted when I have 35 reviews.
