Buffy walked to Carrie glancing at Riley as she walked, she moved to a part of the front desk
"Hi Buffy" Carrie said
"Hi Carrie how are you" Buffy said writing on the paper and showing it to Carrie
*@* need your help,*@* it read
Carrie looked at her and then at Riley, Carrie simply nodded
"Err you know, work that's about it" Carrie said keeping an eye on Riley as Buffy wrote another message
*@* I need you to get a message to my husband *@*
Carrie nodded again
"Yeah, so how's that boyfriend of yours" Buffy said writing another message
*@* Can you tell him to come to the warehouse down the street and that he is strong*@*
"Oh he's fine, he taking me out tomorrow night" Carrie said taking the pen from Buffy
*@* Do you want me to call the police? *@* Carrie wrote
Buffy shook her head frantically as she knew Riley would easily escape from the police and she would get hurt and he would get mad and come for her
"Oh that should be nice"
*@* Please no just give him the message and look after my son till somebody comes and gets him and play along with what ever I say *@*
Carrie nodded and took the paper and pen from her
"Carrie could you do me a big favour" She said glancing at Riley who was starting to come over
"Yeah sure" Carrie said
"Alex is asleep could you look after him until I pick him up later" Buffy said wincing slightly as Riley put his arm around her
"Yeah sure Buffy" Carrie said
"Come on Buffy, there nothing here I haven't got already lets go"
"I just have to get Alex to give to Carrie"
"Lets go" Riley said grabbing her arm
Buffy looked over her shoulder at Carrie and nodded

Spike arrived at the convenience store at ran in
"Carrie have you seen..." Spike said breathlessly
"Spike, oh thank god, Buffy was here with some wired man, she told me to tell you to go to the warehouse down the street and that he is strong"
"Did she have Alex with her" Spike asked
"Yeah, but she left him here, he's round back" Carrie said leading Spike round the back
Once Spike spotted his son sleeping on the chair he ran to him and picked him up
"Daddy" Alex said waking up
"Yeah son, I'm here, its ok" He said as Alex tightened his grip around Spikes neck
"Daddy, can we go home now, me, you and mommy" Alex said
"Ok, Alex I need you to be brave and stay here for a little while longer until auntie Willow comes and gets you" Spike said lowering Alex back down to the chair
"NO, DADDY NO" Alex screamed as tears came down his eyes clutching on to Spike
"Hey hey, shh its ok, Alex I'll be back soon, but tonight you've got to put that new coat of yours in action, remember who am I when I've got it on" Spike said pulling Alex's arms from around his neck and kneeling in front of him
"You're the Big Bad" Alex sniffled
"That's right so tonight, you're gonna have to be the Lil Big Bad while I go get your mommy" Spike said
Alex nodded reluctantly
"That's my boy, don't worry Alex I wont be long" He said kissing Alex on the fore head
Spike put a blanket over Alex as he curled back up on the chair He stood up and turned to Carrie
"Red head called Willow is coming to pick him up soon, if he wakes up just tell him a story or something and humour him with the Lil Big Bad stuff will you, thanks luv"
