Disclaimer: Yes, I own all of them, in fact I am Joss Whedon myself writing fan-fic incognito to express my deepest hidden thoughts. Of course is Spike mine, mine alone and I don't share.
Hm, I was told that lying was nothing a lady should indulge in, but as I use to call it, not telling the whole truth is not a lie. Sadly that was one of them hiding truths thingies, so please don't sue, me truly own nothing but my computer this was written on and the crazy mind that cooked up this story.
Author's notes: This is my response to this challenge I've read several wonderful stories about. But since I noticed that they are all a bit dark in nature, I decided to go for something lighter; something with a little more humour in it. Special thanks go to my wonderful beta tester Kiva, you rock sweetie, and to the person who put out this challenge and gave me that way the chance to write comedy again.
Please let me know what you think, all comments, questions, suggestions or other things can be sent to LadySet@gmx.net or easier, review here. Want to have it for your site? Just let me know, I'd be so happy 'bout it.
Summary: The Trio of Nerds get control over Spike's chip after finding out what it's good for and try to use him for their own purposes in defeating the Slayer – permanently. As expected, things don't go the way they were planned (hey, they're not called 'Nerds' for nothing).
Spoilers: Way Post Dead Things but before the marriage. In fact from after Dead Things kinda nothing did happen exactly like on the show. Also, actually nothing really huge in the spoiler section since I would be spoiling myself with it, me not even having seen that episode yet.
Spike's brain

~Prologue~
The Hellmouth on the Edge of Forever
I am the Watcher.
It is my sacred and sworn duty to look out over the Chosen One, for she alone has been destined to slay the vampires and other forces of evil that are crawling around in the darkness of a never ending night.
And right here, on the Mouth of Hell that Sunnydale resides on, they have gathered, trying to best her. They walk amongst the unsuspicious humans, their features, their true faces disguised underneath their human masks and waiting for their prey to come out.
I am her Guardian.
I have been chosen to train her in how to perform her duty best; to guide her in her eternal fight against the dark ones, the creatures of the night.
I am never to interfere in her fight, but only to give guidance and support where and when it is deemed necessary.
It is my duty and I will fulfil it with my heart and soul because it is what is demanded from me. I will do it with the same compassion and devotion that those before me had performed it and will continue to do so when I will be no more.
I am there to simply watch from my assigned place and to never intervene, no matter at what cost.
