When Buffy's done...sniff...sigh...okay...I've got control…I'm gonna be okay.

Wouldn't it be kewl if at the end, when the little monster runs across the screen it goes something like this:

Grr....

As the ME (Mutant Enemy) Monster is halfway through the screen, a cartoon version of Buffy the Vampire Slayer bursts through the background, jumping before the monster.

A fight ensues.

After seven years, the monster has learned plenty of moves watching both the slayer and her foes. So between the two we see a cloud of fury, with legs & arms coming out of it...as well as noises of fighting * you know...like pow, kow, boom, etc.*

Finally the monster comes flying out of the cloud, landing on his back. The monster is cut and bruised and very wobbly. Buffy burst out seconds later, in fighting stance with very little damage.

As the monster launches to attack her, he is tackled to the ground again as a cartoon version of Spike spears into him.

Buffy and Spike stand back-to-back.

Spike says, "Having fun luv?"

"The best Dear."

"Can I play too?"

"Wouldn't be fun without my Big Bad."

"You know it luv...let's show this bloody wanker what the being Chosen is all about."

The two move in on the poor misguided paper demon...raining down punishment on him as if he was every demon they had ever fought bundled into one tiny package. Buffy and Spike dance their dance...sheer poetry in motion. Buffy sending punches and roundhouse kicks that land and tear away pieces of the paper demons body. Spike...sending the same, his paper duster flying behind him in the non-existing wind.

Each sending quip after quip at the demon that's truly getting his assed kicked.

When the monster can barely get up to fight them, Buffy brandishes a stake and says, "It took me seven years...but I finally got your ass. Say goodnight and goodbye to the nice people."

She plunges the stake into his heart, the demon looks down at the stake protruding from his chest. His last words...."Good...bye." Are heard in a sort of echo fashion. *the same way he always used to say Grr...Argh.*

Spike and Buffy looked at each other.

"Kicked his ass...even though it did take you seven years luv, what was that all about?"

"Shut up and kiss me."

"Demands, demands..." Spike says as he leans toward his girl, kissing her passionately. Moments later they break apart.

"Your mine," He growls at her

"I know," she replies. "But you're mine as well."

"Grr...argh..." he replies

And we hear their laughter as they walk back through the hole in the screen...back towards Sunnydale.

Then the screen goes black.
