CHAPTER 3: LET HER IN
"If Dru's intentions were just cautious in nature, then why did I receive this (Giles holds up Dru's correspondence) now, instead of when we first met? Or how come she declined to mention Ms. Rosenberg and Mr. Harris to her Spikey earlier? What's so important about now? ARRRGGH!!" Giles was bewildered bothered and confused to say the least.
"Calm down, mate, at your age your likely to have a heart attack. Then who would watch over your brood? (Giles growls at Spike) Look, I was with the bird for close to a century and couldn't understand half the stuff she ranted about. Come to think of it though; when she was here, she did have a spot for those two. Not sure if it was good or not, but it kept her entertained." Spike stops speaking to tilt his head back as if listening for something, then rolled his head back around to grin at the watcher.
"Spike? What's wrong?"
"Nothings wrong. She's back."
At that point Buffy, Xander and Willow walk into the Magic Shop. Buffy asking, "who's back?"
"My Dark Princess."
Giles nods his head, but the rest of the group doesn't look as enlightened.
"DRU! You daft bits!" Now they nod.
Buffy's eyes widen and she looks around the room frantically, "WHERE?!"
A familiar feminine voice drifts over to the group, "Hide 'n' see. The 'Hide' is here, no where to seek for the supposed Seeker. (Dru turns to Spike). Knew I taught you better manners than this (Gestures for him to let her in)."
Spike takes a quick look around at he scoobies and says, "anything for my lady. Please do; join us." Spike walks over towards Dru and bows at the end of his speech.
"Better." Dru glides in and puts her hand in Spikes outstretched one. They then proceed to dance about the place. Twirling and laughing. "Dance, my childe dance."
Soon not only their laughter fills the place, so does the rest of the place. The noise breaking through to Spike. "Princess?"
"Hmm?" Dru asks distractedly. Still twirling even without the assistance of Spike.
"What are you doing here?"
"Can't a mummy visit her Spikey?"
"Anytime sweetheart; you know that. But, why now?"
"Time to go homw."
Dru? This has been home for a while now."
"AAHH. We love you too fangless."
Spike growls back," Shut it whelp."
"Not our home silly. (She points to Xander and Willow). Theirs."
Spike looks back and forth between the mentioned duo and his dark princess. "Drusie? What do you mean their home?"
"I do hate repeating myself, but with you? (Shrug) We know you read out letter, but why can't you see? (Pause. She's waiting for an answer.) Oh. Oops. Sorry deary. Mums forgot. Don't worry though we can make it all better." Dru pats Spike on the head like a good little boy. She turns around (Not quite twirling).
"Here Kitty, here pretty kitty." Dru calls her kitty to her.
Willow nudges Xander. He rolls his eyes at her and gets up to walk towards Dru. "There anything I can do for you Dru?"
Willow smiles at Xander and bounces in her chair.
"Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on?" Buffy demands.
Giles puts his hand over her mouth and drags her back to her seat. "I apologize for any inconvenience my ward may have incurred." Giles humbles himself before Dru.
"Think nothing of it, my good gentle man. Do be warned. Should she interfere more, I will see to her end. Are we clear?" Giles nods despite Buffy's firm shaking of the head.
Dru turns back to Xander. "Sorry Kitten. Would you please gather your Little Tree and come help Mummy fix my Spikey?"
Xander bows and stretches his hand out for Willow. She daintily puts her hand in his and he twirls once before pulling her into his arms laughing all the while.
"Beautiful they are. Aren't they Spikey?"
"Whatever you say Precious." Spike says still doubtful of anything special about those two.
"Kitty and Little Tree surround my childe. Oh Spikey?"
"Yeah."
"You might want to lie down for this."
"For what?"
Dru ignores Spike and starts to chant in Demon's tongue (Please don't ask me to name one).
