Words of a Broken Heart
A/N: OMG, I have NEVER gotten this many reviews on just 3 chapters! I know, lame, but still! You're making me SO happy! Thank you all BUNCHES! Special thanks to K. Hunter, who boosted my self-confidenceand and encouraged me to send this to Enlightenment. It's there, babe! Or, it will be. . . I think. I'm not sure I submitted it right. Oh well, only time will tell. Lots of love,
Andi

"Ha!"
Buffy looked up at Angelus and gave him a nasty look. *How dare he laugh at me, the Bastard!*
"Slayer! Ye can barely lift a rock, lass, how do ye expect us to believe that yer a 'slayer'?"
"Shut up."
Spike looked down at her.
"Well, I believe that only a slayer could be so crude, but that could just be me."
Buffy shot him a glare, then realized he was saying he believed her. She opted for just the haughty, nose-in-the-air look. Spike laughed.
"No need to get your knickers in a twist, love. 'M just saying."
Drusilla chose this moment to look up at the people.
"A power lost, a time forgotten, yet still there. The dark shall overpower, yet the light shall still be. Time shall not be altered, yet for the times not yet percieved by the traveler."
Buffy looked at Dru. "So me being here isn't going to change the future?" Drusilla took on a vacant grin, and Buffy thought about this new revalation.
Darla looked over and said snidely, "You understand the looney?!" To that, Spike growled at her.
"Hush, boy," Angelus said.
"Well, if she's the slayer, then I'm Queen Victoria."
"Some one should drain that lass." Angelus replied.
"Hardley. Wouldn't want skin of paper and bones of glass, now would we?" Said Darla.
"And ye think a simplicity like that would be likely to effect us?"
As Angelus and Darla bickered, Spike watched as the so-called Slayer focused on everything but Angelus.
"What's wrong, love?" Buffy looked up at him in shock of his sympathetic words, then returned to her impassive facade.
"Nothing."
"Bollocks. Something's wrong."
"Nothing you should concern yourself with, then."
Spike suddenly went over to her and dragged her into another room.
"I know that you know more than you're letting on, and I'm not going to hurt you. Not right now, at least. But it'll be better for us all if you just let us in on whatever the bloody hell's going on in the blasted little head of yours."
A small tear slipped down her face, destroying her attempts to remain void of emotion. Spike flicked the tear gently off of her face as his own clouded with worry and curiosity.
Buffy looked up at him and let out a sad chuckle. "Do you have a few hours?"
Spike smiled and led them both over to the couch on the other side of the room.
"It all started about--What year is this?"
"1842"
"Well, it all started about 154 years from now. . ."

Willow walked determinedly into the library and went straight into Giles' office, oblivious to his objections coming towards her. She walked over to his 'Big-Secret-Book' stash and looked through it until she found the book that held the 'History of the Aurelieus Line'.
"Willow, I beg of you to tell me whatever it is that you're doing in my books!"
"I need to look something up."
On her trip to the table in the center of the library, she tripped and fell, ruining her attempts to look impassive.
"Oops?" She smiled questioningly.
Giles began to clean his glasses.
"So, did you see Buffy?"
That wiped the smile off her face and she got up again and walked over to the table, not answering the question.
"Willow?"
"She's gone. Think she ran away."
Giles looked up at her in shock.
"Oh, dear Lord."
"Yah, and that's not all I found out. Guess who Buff's great-great-great--whatever, guess who her granny is."
"Willow, what does this have to do with anyth-"
"Just guess."
"I really haven't the slightest idea."
"Willow came to the page she was looking for and held it out to Giles."
"Oh, dear Lord."

A/N: I know, short chapter. But I've got a lot of work to do, as well as the fact that I need to figure out a way to get Spike unhooked from Dru without making Dru or Buffy out as an evil, skanky ho, or by making it look to forced. So, be prepared for just growing friendship until then. Plz review, I love to hear what you think! Lots of love,
Andi
PS: Thank you, William's Girl, for showing me the HTML thing. But the reason I can't do it is b/c I have worKS, not worD. Still, thank you. Once I load Window's 2000 onto my comp. again, I'll be really, REALLY grateful.
PSS: For those of you a little confused about the Queen Victoria thing, she had a sex-linked trait carried through her family called Hemophelia, which deprives the blood of being able to clot. Definitely deteriorated the family line.
