As Buffy and Spike made their way to the opening to meet Willow and Giles, Buffy sensed danger. It seemed almost tangible. She thought that she could feel it, rubbing against her, causing the hair on the back of her neck to stand up. Brushing the feeling aside, she pushed Spike through the crevice before her. At his sharp intake of breath, she looked up. Willow and Giles were surrounded by vampires. They looked at Buffy helplessly. There were too many of them, even for the slayer. Buffy glanced at Spike, and he shook his head. Not even Spike could take on this many. 3 more vampires stepped from the darkness and herded Buffy and Spike to stand by the others. They stood together, waiting for something to happen. "Slayer. You come at last." A booming voice filled the cavern. It seemed to come from everywhere at once. Buffy summoned up her courage and said, "Yeah. I'm here. How about you show your ugly face so that I can kick it?" The being laughed. "You understand nothing. And yet, I will take great pleasure watching your visions bring." Suddenly, it appeared before Buffy. A tall man, with dark hair and blue eyes, De Vincint stared at the slayer. He nodded his head toward Spike. "I knew you'd come for him. You blood teems with passion for this vampire." Buffy said nothing. "You will tell me everything soon. And you friends will die listening to your screams."
