Chapter 2:
Dawn ran to tell Willow to get the spell ready to give Buffy back her soul. Willow understood and ran to get the ingredients together and to find an Orb of Thesulah for the spell.
Spike ran with preternatural speed to the mansion on Crawford Street. Before he entered, he could spell Buffy's blood. Even though Buffy had been mean to him and beat him up and called him a dead, evil soulless thing, Spike knew she loved him. And he loved her more than anything in the world. He didn't need a soul to love her. She was his everything.
Spike smelled the blood and ran into the mansion. "Buffy!" he yelled desperately. "Buffy where are you?" He followed the scent of her blood until he found her in one of the bedrooms. Angelus was bent over her and was slitting his wrist. He was going to make her drink his blood and become a vampire!
"Nooooo!!!" Spike cried. He ran over to Angelus and pushed him away.
"She's mine!" Angelus snarled. "I'm going to make her my vampire queen and you can't do anything about it! Get out of the way, boy, and let me do this!"
"Over my dead body!" Spike said.
"You *are* dead, you idiot!" the other vampire said.
Buffy's eyes fluttered open. "Spike?" she asked weakly. "Is that you?"
Spike kneeled beside the bed. "Yes, baby, it's me. How are you?"
"Cold, Spike," she whispered. "I'm so cold."
Spike could hear her heartbeat slowing down and struggling. "You need blood, love," he said gently.
Across the room, Angelus growled. "And I'm going to give it to her!" He lunged at Spike but Spike was ready for him. He pulled out a stake at right when Angelus fell on him.
"Aarrgghhh!!" Angelus bellowed when the stake went into his stomach. "You'll pay for that!"
Spike pulled the stake out of Angelus' stomach and took aim. The stake found the other vampire's heart and with a look of bewilderment, Angelus crumbled into dust.
Spike ran over to the bed. "Buffy, Buffy are you still alive?"
"Yessss..." Buffy hissed in pain.
"I have to get you to the hospital, you need a transfusion. Come on, let's go."
"Not ... enough ... time ..." Buffy whispered. "I'm dying, Spike ..."
"NO!!" Spike cried. Tears began streaming down his face. "I can't let you die! I love you, Buffy. I love you and I can't lose you!"
Buffy smiled weakly. "I'm sorry ..." she whispered. "I ... love you too ... Spike ..." she said, then her eyes fell closed and her hearbeat faltered.
"Buffy!" Spike cried. "Buffy, wake up!"
But Buffy didn't wake up. She would be dead any minute. Spike wasn't thinking straight and all he could think of was how much he loved her. He wouldn't be able to go on without her. So, he made a decision, knowing it was something that Buffy would hate him for.
