Drusilla came up behind him and placed her hands on his neck ready to crack
it.
'NOOOO!' Buffy screeched which distracted Dru giving time for Buffy to sprint over.
'Ah ah', Dru threatened turning Xander around to face her. Buffy stopped in her tracks.
'Come closer and mummy will go crack-crack', Dru warned her. Buffy desperately tried to think of a solution on the spot but her mind was blank with fear and her heart was hammering so hard she couldn't even hear herself attempt to think.
Spike was frozen in motion between about to attack and holding back.
'Why do you even care', Dru snapped at Spike. Spike loosened up and let his arm drop to his side.
'Because he's a friend', Spike answered coolly. Dru laughed.
'You think he cares about you? Do you think he would risk his life for yours?' Dru questioned Spike on Xander. Spike looked away.
'Maybe not and I can't say we're the best of mates but I fight on the good side and that means helping out innocent and good people...I made a choice to do that and I plan to stick to it so you can take your plan of making me evil and shove it', Spike snarled.
'People are stupid and weak you used to understand that', Dru said disappointed.
'Some people are stupid yeah and their weak but not all of them are you should understand that', Spike retorted. Buffy looked from Spike to Dru they had so much anger at each other and were wrapped up in that so now would be the perfect time to free Xander. Buffy took the chance and rushed forward, pushing Dru aside. Dru fell into Spike's arms and he let her drop to the floor looking disgusted.
'Why so much hate sweet Willy you used to love me so', Dru said.
'You killed me luv what do you expect, you turned me into a monster I can never forgive you for that', Spike said punching Dru. He pulled out a stake.
'Can you do it?', Dru whispered. Spike's hand shook as he prepared to stake one of the most important women in his life.
'I don't love you anymore', Spike snarled down at her.
'No but I am the women of you life, I made you Spike, everything you did was because of me and I don't just mean the killing if it wasn't for me you wouldn't have even met her', Dru said indicating Buffy. Buffy stared at Spike it was obvious that he knew that all that Drusilla had said was true. Buffy realised within that second that he couldn't do it. She rested her hand on his shoulder.
'I'll do it', Buffy told him but Spike didn't move.
'No', Spike said stubbornly. Buffy frowned at him.
'Do you still have feelings for her or something?' Buffy demanded.
'No....yes but there're memories....I...I loved her Buffy, I really did and even though it was self absorbed and when I was evil I can still feel it, I can still taste it and it makes me sick but she's right if it weren't for her I would never have met you', Spike said not looking at her.
'Is that what this is about, me? Spike it doesn't matter she's evil you fight on the good side remember.'
'But she's....she's Drusilla', Spike said weakly still clutching the stake. Buffy stared at him confused.
'I don't expect you to understand', Spike added quickly. But as soon as he said that he began to understand and pull himself together. 'But I don't need you to', Spike muttered and he plunged his stake through Drusilla's heart. A moment passed where Dru stared down at the stake, shocked, then still wide-eyed she looked up to Spike.
'You fool, Dru chocked, the stench of humanity in you gets worse by each day', Dru spat and reduced to dust. Spike stood there motionless for a second. He'd done it, he'd really killed Drusilla.
'NOOOO!' Buffy screeched which distracted Dru giving time for Buffy to sprint over.
