Darla and Angelus stared open-mouthed at Drusilla. She ignored their looks and walked over to the sleeping Paige.
"Pretty witch, Miss Edith tells me of the power you have. She says you'd make a pretty pretty vampire. You'd be the evilest creature in the world. Even more so than Daddy. Together we would paint the world red. And oh, all the fear you would cause I can taste it now."
"Dru, precious." Angelus said grabbing Drusilla by the arms and jerking her out of her fantasies. "What happened?"
"What do you mean, Daddy? You are still Daddy, and not the horrible Angel- beast, aren't you?" She asked tilting her head to look at him better.
"Yes he is Dru." Darla said. "He is still Angelus."
"Dru." He repeated trying to get her attention. "You were staked. How are you still here?"
Drusilla smiled and pushed him away. Standing in the center of the room she began to twirl around. "The stars knew that the little tree was going to be a bad puppy. So they made me safe. The filled me with their swishy colors and made everything better. The told me to go to sleep and that I'd wake up when the mean witch left." Drusilla stopped spinning and looked around the room. "Where is my William?"

Willow pulled a bag of blood out of the refrigerator, and placed it in the microwave. "Are you okay, baby? You seem kinda of quiet today."
Spike sat down at the kitchen table and ran his hand through his tousled hair. "Yeah, red, I'm fine. Just a little out of it. I'm still trying to sort out what's real and what that bitch Phoebe put in my bloody head."
Willow nodded. "I know, baby." She said as she walked over to him. "But I can tell you what's real."

Buffy and Xander sat at the dining room table while Piper mixed her potions in the kitchen.
"Everything's going to be okay, right Buff?" Xander asked. "I mean Willow's not gonna go do something stupid, right?"
Buffy sighed. "I don't know, Xand, I really don't know. Ever since Oz broke up with her, everything she's done has been stupid. Asking Spike to come back to Sunnydale. I mean, who knew she even knew where he was in LA. Agreeing to be turned. Sneaking around with Spike. Restoring the Gem of Amarra. Removing Spike's chip, and letting him kill people. Doing the spell to remove his memories of all the people he's killed. Then letting him nearly kill her, and when he realized he couldn't she let him leave. She knew what would happen." Buffy stopped her ranting and looked at Xander.
"Letting him turn her into Drusilla." He said in a small voice.
"What?" Leo asked coming into the room, clearly confused.
"I don't mean she actually turned into Drusilla. I mean that mentally she's like Drusilla." Xander explained.
"Oh." Leo said sitting down.
"How is she like Drusilla?" Buffy asked still confused.
"Buffy, please. We both know Willow. How she's been acting lately is nothing like her usual self. And I know my best friend. Spike means everything to her and when he left, she left."
"She acted the same way when Oz left."
"She acted nothing like this when Oz left. Maybe you haven't noticed Buffy, but when Oz left she was suicidal. When Spike left, she went full on schizo, just like Dru. I mean there were days when I swore I heard Willow talking to the stars. Buff, face it. He broke her." Xander said sadly. "And when we find Spike I'm gonna kill him."
"Xander, maybe it wasn't Willow to begin with." Leo said cryptically.
"Huh?" Xander and Buffy asked in unison.
"Maybe, Drusilla was channeling her." Leo explained.
"What are you talking about?" Xander asked still bewildered.
"I'll show you in the book." Leo said standing up.
Xander and Buffy stared at each other and then stood up each silently thinking the same thing, 'Leo is crazy.'
"Hey, where'd everybody go?" Piper asked coming out of the kitchen.
*****
Willow led Spike out of the kitchen smiling wickedly. "Pet, what's going on?" Spike asked confused.
"You'll see, baby." Willow said mischievously.
Just then there was a knock at the door. Willow looked at her watch. "Dawn, honey if that's you, just come on in." She called dropping Spike's hand.
The door swung open. "Thanks, Red." Angelus said as he, Darla, and Drusilla walked over the threshold.
"Angel?" Willow guessed hopefully.
"Guess again, sweetheart." He said stalking towards her.
"Don't even think about it, Peaches." Spike said flinging himself at Angel.
Angel yawned and pulled out a tranquilizer jabbing it into Spike when he was close enough. Spike's last conscious thought was, 'Why is Phoebe with Peaches and Darla?'

Hee Hee Hee. Whatcha think?
