Ok, I'm sorry that it has been so long since it was the last time that I added a chapter, I have been busy with school and family vacations. So RR!! It's gonna get a lil darker now and it might feel like a different story, since it has been such a long time sine the last time that I wrote. Let me know how you guys think it's going, and let me know if I should continue. Any ideas, just lemme know. THANX -^_^-.

Chapter 4

A New Life

Spike was sitting in his lounge chair watching Passions when he heard noises coming from below in his basement.

"Is that Buffy?" Spike thought. He stood up and turned off the TV and slowly walked toward the opening that led below.

Buffy opened her eyes slowly and found herself lying on the floor.

"What the-?" She looked around confused. She sat up and felt her neck and instantly knew where she was.

"Oh man, please tell me this isn't real." Buffy said. She couldn't believe that he had actually turned her into a vampire.

"Spike!" she yelled, "What the hell is going on here?"

"Guess she's up." Spike said, with a smirk on his face as he heard his lover yelling his name. "Let the games begin."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The awkward silence in the car was becoming too unbearable. Xander decided to speak up.

"So Giles…do you happen to know exactly where Buffy could be? I mean she has been gone for a couple of days now." Xander said looking at Giles hoping that he knew what he was doing.

"No, I'm just hoping that she'll be wandering the streets." Xander sighed, he wasn't getting a good feeling about this.

Buffy sat on the floor, staring up at Spike in disbelief at what he has done to her.

"Why Spike? Why did you do this to me?" tears began streaming down her face.

"Well pet, I love you and I wanted us to spend eternity together, and I have some other plans in mind for our future." Spike had an evil smirk on his face. "going to get rid of some things in our way."

Buffy stood up, anxious in what he had to say. "What exactly do you mean by that?"

Spike walked towards her, "Not to worry luv, you'll find out soon enough. How are you feeling?" he brushed his lips against hers. Buffy took a step back.

"Well….I feel…….different. Like I'm alive again (no pun intended) and have been reborn. I also feel stronger and I feel weird saying this, but a bit hungry." Spike smiled at that statement. "But right now" she said. "I'm gonna need some time to myself." She picked up her coat and headed out the door, where she was headed she didn't know but she just needed time to figure out the situation.

Willow peaked into Dawn's room and saw her sitting on her bed looking quite upset and worried at the same time.

"Dawn?" Willow asked, "you okay?"

She turned to look at Willow and said, "yeah I'm fine. Now go away." She turned her back on Willow.

She sighed and walked towards the bed, she put her hand on Dawn's shoulder. "Dawn, I know that you are upset but you need to under-" Dawn interrupted her.

"No, I get it. You guys think that I'm too young to be involved in anything that you guys do, but this time it's different, this is my SISTER that we are talking about." Tears began forming in her eyes. "and I don't think that it's right that you push me out of this, when I have as much as a right as anyone else, maybe even more, to be involved in this." She stood up, grabbed her jacket and left.

Willow stood up and went after her, "Where do you think you are going?"

"Out for a walk. Maybe I'll find Buffy too. You know? My sister." She slammed the door behind her and took to the streets of Sunnydale.

"What am I going to do about her?" Willow asked herself, she went to the kitchen to make some coffee. She had a feeling that this was going to be a long night.
