Sorry for the delay. I just got caught up in my other story, 'A Match Made
In Heaven'. Check it out, I hear it's pretty good. Well anyway, for a quick
thing on this chapter, we're going to see how Buffy made out with her shot
at the hospital then the reactions of the other Scoobie's at hearing both
pieces of news. Sounds fun huh? You bet!
-sigh- No matter how much I wish it would be, it's all still Joss's..

The room is quiet, all the sergical instruments hanging from the walls and in cabinets or on different tables. The walls and floor seem to be mellow colors, and it's obvious why because of this certain room.
"Come on! Hurry up! Get her in here!" A nurse yells to the medics, who are pushing a blonde haired girl on a gurty. The enter through the swinging doors, pushing the bed into the center of the once quiet room. "Hook her up! Come on people we're loosing her!" Another nurse calls, starting to attached all the necessary equipment to the girl.
A boy stands outside at the glass window, looking inside the room. His eyes wide with fear. "Come on Buffy..hold on.." He prods the girl inside, as if she could hear him.
"Get a doctor quickly!" The nurse yells to one of the hands, as she continues to set the equipment up. They set up the monoter and it shows she's slipping from them. One of the nurses stand by the monoter and watch it, making sure she's ready to call if something happens.
"Quick! We're loosing her!" That same nurse calls, glancing down at the monoter.
A dull sounding alarm sounds, and all the nurses look over at the monoter. It's green line strait, instead of the usual up and down motion is makes.
Rolling over another little table it has a machine intop of it, the head nurse picks up two pad-like things and holds them above the girl's chest while rubbing them together. "Clear!" She yells, before pushing them onto her.
The girl, who seems to be Buffy, doesn't move. Her body only jolts a little at the electricity that was shot into her.
The nurse rubs them together again. "Clear!" She repeats and tries it again.
Buffy still doesn't awake and her body is already limp. Again her body only jolts up a little at the force of electricity.
Xander watches this and tears burst out of his eyes. "Oh God...oh God.." He murmurs, shaking his head and burrying his face in his hands.
"No! I'm not letting her go!" The nurse yells, as she rubs them for a third tim. "Clear!" She calls.
Once again, the body only jolts, but nothing else happens.
Accepting the loss, the nurse slowly puts them down, replacing them to thier positions on the machine. "She's gone." She announces, as the machine is rolled back to it's place.

"No. I'm not kidding. Why would I be?" Xander asked annoyingly into the phone. He was now back at the Summer's house, waiting for Dawn to get home so he could break the news to her. Right now he was working on Anya.
"I can't believe this.." She mumbled, sitting down at the table in the Magic Box.
"Me neither." he replied.
"What're you going to tell Dawn?"
"The truth I guess..don't really have much choice."
Anya nods. "You want me to come over and wait with you?"
"I thought you hated me?" Xander asked her in reply. A confused expression forming on his face.
"I do. But Buffy was immportant to you, and I thought you could use some company.." She answered.
He sighs. "You're right..I could."
"Alright then. I'll close down the shop for the evening and be over in about, 20 minutes." She tells him.
He nods. "I'll be here."
"Ok." Anya returns, before hanging up the phone.
Slowly, Xander hangs up the phone as well. He leaves the kitchen and enters the living room, looking around at the things on the bookcase and mantel. Not being able to help himself, he starts to cry again, not ashamed of his tears.
"What's this eh?" A British accented voice asks him.
Xander quickly wipes away the tears and turn to where he heard the voice come from. There in front of him is a dark figure, slightly hidden in the shadows. "What are you doing here?" He asks harshly, not wanting to deal with this guy.
"I came to make sure the Bit got home alright. No nasties went up and took her or anythin'." The man answers. He's wearing all black, making him look all the more darker. Though his paroxide colored hair identifies him even through the darkness.
"Go home, Spike. I'll take care of Dawn." Xander tells him, turning back around to wipe more of the once fallen tears away.
"Where's Buffy then?" The vampire askes, not making any sign that he's planning to leave.
"She's not home." He answers. The memory of his day at the hospital comes back to him and he shakes his head, not allowing himself to cry in front of Spike.
The front door opens and Anya enters the house "Xander?" She asks, glaning into the Dinning room before spotting him in the living room with Spike. "Oh, hi Spike. Didn't know you'd be here." She says to the vampire, taking off her jacket.
"Me neither." Xander mumbles, as he glances over at Anya.
"I was just comming to check on the Summers girls. Heard there was a bit of a fight today." He explains, nodding in greeting to Anya.
She looks back at Xander, a worried look on her face. "You haven't told him. Have you?" She asks.
Xander shakes his head and goes over to the couch to sit down.
"Tell me what? Did something happen to the Slayer?" Spike asks, furrowing his brow.
"It's none of your business, Spike." Xander answers, refusing to tell him about Buffy.
"Tell me what the bleeding hell happened!" He demands, looking over at Anya.
"Buffy's dead." She blurts out.
Spikes eyes go wide, but then he rolls them. "Ha ha. Very funny. Let's try the truth this time."
"It's the damn truth! She's not lying!" Xander exclaims, looking up at Spike.
Anya sits down next to Xander and wraps an arm around his shoulder, trying to comfort him.
He just looks down at the floor, not showing any acknoledgement of Anya's attempt.
Spike stands there, obviously astonished at what he has heard.
Rightio. So that's the next part. Em..keep checking back for the next chapter and please please please keep reviewing. If there's any suggestions you have for the future of the story, let me know!
