I'm back! Just couldn't stand not having a computer! Italy was fantastic and I even got a great tan! Hope your holidays wherever are great too!

I have written another story: I know what you want and would be really pleased if you could check it out and review!

On with the story.

Chapter 10:

Getting what I want

So here I am-ruined everything for her didn't I?" Dawn asked convinced already though.

"No you didn't. She'll understand." he reassured her.

"I guess I do." Buffy said standing in the door way.

"Buffy..."Spike said but she interrupted him.

"We have to talk." she commanded.

Buffy walked into the bedroom and Spike followed her.

Dawn understood that there where things between them that had to be talked out so she sat herself on the couch.

Only a few moments later they came back out. Buffy's mind racing according to the look on her face and Spike's as well.

"Alright. Dawn you can't come with us but you can search the internet for this cross that Adam wants us to find. The laptops in the bottom drawer over there." she pointed at the cupboard where spike had taken his gun out earlier.

"Sure. I'm on it."

"Then lets go." she said to Spike and they opened the door.

"Buffy?" Dawn proclaimed and the Blonde turned around." I'm really sorry about everything."

"Don't worry about it. We're Summers women-strong as hell." she gave her little sister a warm smile then they where gone.

She could only hear Spikes muffled voice.

"How the hell did you where my laptop was?"

It was a cold night as Buffy walked down the too familiar alley that led to Adam's office.

There was no guard at the door today and she was surprised. Carefully she opened the door but the squeaky sound still echoed in the hallway. There was light coming through the only door at the end. She tiptoed closer to the door and was pleased to find that a small gap had been left opened.

There was nobody inside and Buffy peeked around the door to see if anyone was behind it. There wasn't." Where the hell is everybody?" A sudden rush of fear came over her. What if they had found it? Anything that Adam wanted was either with two boobs or dangerous.

Buffy now stepped into the room, the heavy scent of tobacco and alcohol lying heavy in the air. Adam's desk was actually quiet clean except of the little pile of paper on it. She stood behind the desk and picked up the first paper on the pile and looked at it.

The cross of Emiliatus. Once found by Cortez in the late 1500 it is said that this cross has the power to stop time. Although it has never been found since, records of all centuries have shown that it has been seen. Arcologists believe that the cross is hidden somewhere in North America.

"Well it's been found now."

Buffy picked up the phone to her right and dialled Spike's number. On the other end Dawn picked up.

"Dawn it's me, Buffy. I have some info on this cross."

"Good cause this search here-not searching well.

"It's called the cross of Emiliatus and apparently found by Cortez and it supposed to stop time. You got that?"

"Yep." I'll search but how can I contact you?"

"You can't. Call Spike's cell."

"Isn't he with you?"

"No. I sent him on a task."

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

How did I get to this?

Spike was walking to the usual bars where he had always gotten information from people by...well just by beating it out of them. He never really liked doing it but sometimes you have to get rough to get info.

So now he was in front of this bar called Willy's Place. Here he would always find some info out of the Bartender. At the beginning he had to always use violence but after a while he realized that Spike wasn't one too mess with.

Just then his cell phone rang.

"Yes?"

"Spike, it's me Dawn. Buffy found out that Adams cross is called the cross of Eliminatus. I searched on the internet but there was nothing I could find that we didn't already know."

"Alright thanks."

"No problem."

He hung up his phone and put it back in his jacket pocket then walked in to the bar.

The bar smelled like it always did: Disgusting. No doubt with all the lowlifes who where drowning their sorrows in booze. He sat on one of the round high bar chairs and the bartender called Terry spotted him and walked towards him with an uneasy face.

"Spike what can I get you?"

"You can start by giving me every information on a cross called Eliminatus."

"Business call then. Well I don't know nothing."

Spike huffed." Don't want to hurt you Terry but this is really important so open your mouth and spill."

"Ok, ok, don't get all mad." his fists were raised in defense." Look, I have heard of this guy that was bragging about finding this cross that he is going to sell to this guy called Adam Kay or something."

"Adam Tray?"

"Yeah that was it."

"Anything else?"

"He only said that he was going to meet him at the old factories downtown. Was a little drunk so he kind of told everyone?"

"Alright. Thanks."

"Hey no problem."

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Buffy opened the door to spikes Apartment to find Dawn on the couch with the laptop on her thighs.

"Hey. You find anything out yet?"

"No sorry."

"Has Spike called?"

"I called him and told him about what you...."

She was interrupted by the phone. Buffy went to pick it up.

"Hello?"

"It's me Spike. I've found out that Adam is going to receive the cross tonight at the old factories downtown."

"Great ill go. You come back here and stay with Dawn."

"Alright I'm on my way."

"I have to go to the factories. Stay here ok?"

"Ok.Wait." she put the laptop next to her on the couch and got up.She reached in to her back pocket and pulled out her cell phone." Here. You might need this."

"Thanks." and with that she left.

Buffy took a cab but got out a little before the factories. Walking towards them would be easier than a nosy cab driver.

It took her 15 minutes but she finally stood 50 meters away from the factories. She could see some cars outside wich probably belonged to Adam and whoever else was involved.

Walking up to the factory she was greeted by some men. She only knew one as he was one of Adam's guards.

"What are you doing here?"

"First of all you say hello to people when you see them and second I have business here. Just like you."

The men looked at her sceptical but then followed her in to the factory.

"Buffy. What a surprise." Adam greeted her.

"You know me -full of surprises."

He snipped his fingers and all the men around her took their guns out and pointed them at her.

"Well so am I." he sneered.
