Buffy and the others had a plan. As soon as it was light, Anya was to go to the Magic Box and get anything that would help for protection or anti-magic spells. Xander would call Giles for the same purpose, to find something to disable Willow's magic.
"I know how powerful a wicca she is. I'm not even gonna try anything until we can stop Willow's hocus-pocus." Buffy had said.
Meanwhile, Buffy would teach Cordelia anything she didn't already know about using the weapons from the weapons case. When Anya and Xander had everything they could get, the four of them would work out how to most effectively used what they had.
"We have to attack them as soon as possible. We don't know how much damage they're doing. I think we should try to..." Buffy struggled for words about her friend, "knock them out in one attack. So what do we have?"
It was afternoon and everyone had rallied back at the Summers' home. Dawn was still at school, and had organised to go to a friend's place after.
Xander went first. "I called Giles, and he was worried to say the least. Wasn't too helpful though. He gave me the names of a couple of books but I'll let Anya tell you about that. He did say I should go find a man whose name I couldn't pronounce. Found out why; demon. Apparently a good guy, though because he gave us this."
Xander reached into his pocket and pulled out a small bag.
"It's fairy dust! Or the real-world equivalent. When you mix it with some other basic supplies, it is a powerful magic-repellent. Doesn't work very long, but if we can get it on her, it should help."
Anya then spoke. "I found some helpful books. I know I was supposed to look for defence spells, but while I was looking, I found something to boost power. It won't work for Buffy though, this spell's only for 'those weak of the flesh'. The rest of us should try it if we're going to fight."
"And I'm now up to date with weapons, so what's the plan Buffy?" Cordy asked.
Tara lay next to Amiel as she slept. Willow had done the mojo on her before she left so she should be waking up soon. Tara looked out the window and sighed. The old her would have warned Willow about using so much magic. Now she had felt how powerful it could be, she thought Willow wasn't using enough. Tara waved her hand about and let a trail of orange sparkles follow it. She hummed a tune to herself before realising it was the song that she had sung to Willow that day on the bridge.
"I'm under your spell, how else could it be that you can sleep for so fucking long?" Tara turned her song into a scream as she stared at the girl. She hadn't woken up yet. They had discovered her name by a necklace she had on. It was the only jewelerry she wore.
*You're probably straight, aren't you?* Tara thought. *We'll have to find you a playmate.*
Four seemed right, anyhow. Big enough to have some fun, but still personal, full of love. She'd have to mention it to Willow one day.
*Vixen,* she thought about her red-headed companion. Amiel wasn't red-headed. Not nearly fire-ey enough for that. No, she was blonde. Long straight hair tied back so it was half-up. She was young, too. 16, maybe.
"Honey, I'm home!" Willow slurred her words. She sounded almost drunk.
"Will, what's up?"
"Have some!" Willow bit Tara's finger and sucked it.
"Did you go to Rack again?" Tara asked before a burst of magic hit her hard. She nearly fell onto the couch.
"Good, huh?" Willow asked. She stopped talking and thought-spoke the rest. *Is our baby awake yet?*
Tara waved a hand and Amiel screamed with pain. Tara giggled. *Shouldn't be long now! I was thinking we should get her a playmate. A guy I mean.*
"A guy! What a bold move. Okay! sure, why not? We'll let her pick."
"Woah." Tara did fall onto the couch this time, and Willow followed her.
*Want some more?*
She kissed Tara hard, biting her tongue 'till it bled, then she bit her own tongue and their blood melted together. Willow moved out of Tara's mouth and let her tongue move over her cheek and down to her neck. Tara lay back as Willow bit into her hard.
*Here's some I saved for later.* Willow whispered as she let it all go, and Rack's magic flowed through them both, sending them off the couch and onto the floor, eyes wide open as they were filled with flaming heat, wild pleasure and all the dark magic they could grab at. Amiel woke up sometime in the middle of it, but Willow just blasted some towards her and she joined them as their child and as their lover, three hearts beating as one. It was a powerful bonding experience, an initiation of the third member of the group.
