Summary: AU after Something Blue. What if Willow decided to become a vengeance demon? Eventual femslash, because what is a pyrowolf fic without it? Entirely plot-driven, that's what.
Author's note: Writing good fic is like...well "It's like trying to hit a puppy with a live bee. Which is a really weird image and you should all forget it now." Yay for Willowquotes. D'Hoffryn speaking telepathically is in italics. Laa dee daa....
Willow: Patron Saint of all Women Scorned

Chapter 2: Something is up
Willow materialized inside a rather posh apartment, decked out in plush red furniture, and pictures on the walls displaying violent carnage. She examined the entire place with awe.
The soft voice of D'Hoffryn reverberated inside her mind.
This is all yours now, dear. You may do with it as you please, but I recommend dropping out of college. It could conflict with your duties and its just not practical, considering your immortality.
"Yeah, why would a vengeance demon need to know world politics anyway?" Willow agreed. But she sort of wanted to remain friends with Xander and Buffy, but if they were to find out she was now evil, they probably wouldn't like it. She made the decision to drop out of all her classes, but somehow make it seem like she was still going. Possibly drop out of all her classes with Buffy and tell her she was going to new ones? Also, she would have to explain moving out of the dorms. How could she explain all that?
I'm sure you'll come up with something, D'Hoffryn assured her. After all, you are my beautiful, talented, creative Will'ressa. With that, his presence was gone.
Willow spun in a circle, fell back and landed softly on plush red pillows lining the scarlet couch. She grinned delightedly.
"Willow! Oh my god! We thought something terrible had happened to you!" Buffy exclaimed and wrapped her arms around her best friend.
Anya eyed the pendant around Willow's neck furtively. The now-vengeance demon (but no one knew that yet) noticed and tucked it in her shirt.
It seemed everyone had suddenly forgotten her little 'I will it so' fiasco. She silently thanked D'Hoffryn. You're welcome. He promptly answered.
With a few simple spells, Buffy, Xander, and Giles quickly accepted her dropping out of college and moving out of the dorms into her own apartment.
Willow was ecstatic. It had only been a few days but everything was perfect and everyone was blissfully ignorant. Plus she could do as she pleased without a pesky soul to tug at her. She was ready to get to work.
Anya definitely suspected something. Willow was all different and none of those closest to her seemed to notice anything peculiar at all, like how Willow was now living in an apartment all alone in the rich part of town, or how she had dropped all her classes, despite Willow's absolute love for all things educational.
Yep. Something was definitely up with Willow Rosenberg. And Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins was determined to find out what.
TBC......next up: Will'ressa the vengeance demon prepares to enact some actual vengeance. Woo hoo!
Anya delves deeper into the mystery, and Buffy, Xander, and Giles remain blissfully oblivious. Yay for spells.
