"What you wanna talk about Dawnie?" Buffy asked sitting indian style while
Dawn did
Buffy's hair.
"Only if you don't leave," Dawn said.
"Fine," Buffy said realizing what this was about.
"What did Spike do?" Dawn asked as she started making Buffy's long hair into a braid.
"Pretty much obvious Dawnie," Buffy said.
"Did he tell you why?"
"You don't wanna know cos I know how you'll react."
Dawn looked her sister in the eye as she finished her sister's hair.
"No Dawn. I told you Spike did it, but this is one thing you will never know. I'm taking it to my grave," Buffy said as she climbed under her blankets.
Dawn laid on Buffy's bed on top of the rest of the blankets looking at her sister pleadingly.
"No."
"Buffy," Dawn whined.
"Nope."
"Pweese?"
"You don't wanna know."
"Uh yeah I do."
"Why so you can feel bad? Don't think so," Buffy said then just as Dawn was about to open her mouth, "Dawn Marie don't push it."
Dawn frowned then went over to her bed.
*****
"Spike, why are you doing this?" Buffy asked her voice pleading.
"Cos Nibblet's gone. You killed her slayer. I've got nothing to fight for. Plus they always say. Third time's a charm. 3 slayers down after tonight," Spike smirked as he lowered the knife.
~~~~~~
"Dawn's never going to forgive you Spike if she finds out what your doing," Buffy said a bit of blood coming from her mouth.
"Shut up!" Spike cried as he kicked the slayer in the stomach again. "It's your fault she's dead."
"Yeah cos you were the one who was supposed to be watching her that night." Another kick. "She snuck out while you were dead ass drunk." Kick. "It's your fault my sister is dead Spike." a harder kick that flipped Buffy in the air. "Go to hell Spike."
"I'm already there," Spike said starting to feel off of Buffy who could only sit there while he sucked her blood.
Dawn awoke the sight of her sister bleeding to death imprinted in her mind. She looked over to her sleeping sister who was clearly having a bad dream.
*****
As Spike turned to dust Angel ran over to Buffy who had a cut from a knife on her face and on her neck in various places. She was knocked out and hurt badly all over. Angel picked her up to take her to Wesley and as he carried her to the car she woke up.
"Angel?" Buffy whispered her voice filled with pain.
"Hold on Buffy," Angel said pleading as he laid her in the back seat of the car.
She cried out as her back touched the seat. A tear rolled down her bloody cheek.
"It's okay Buffy. You'll be alright," Angel said.
Before Buffy could say something she passed out again.
~~~~~
"Wesley!" Angel screamed and the ex-watcher ran in seeing Buffy's bloody body.
"What the bloody hell?!" Wesley asked taking Buffy into his own arms and settin gher in his bed.
"Spike went nuts," Angel said.
"What about his chip?" Wesley asked.
"S`gone," Buffy muttered from the bed her head twitching slightly.
"Where is Giles? The rest of them? Willow? Xa-" Wesley started the Buffy cut him off.
"They're gone. Cos of me," Buffy said another tear going down her cheek.
Wesley looked at Buffy more closely in the light. He saw her shattered leg, all the cuts, bruises that were already forming, and not doubt a few broken ribs.
"I'll be back," Wesley said walking out to get stuff for Buffy.
Angel walked over and gripped Buffy's hand lightly.
"Angel?"
"Yeah?"
"Don't leave, please. Stay here."
"I'll stay Buff."
Then Buffy passed out as Wesley walked back in.
"What the hell happened? Who got hurt?!" Cordy exclaimed from the living room where a small trail of blood was. She followed it into Wesley's room and saw Buffy. "Oh my freaking GAWD!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Come on Cordy let's leave Wesley alone to work on Buffy," Angel said leading Cordelia out.
As the door closed behind them Wesley shook his head. He grabbed a towel and cleaned off Buffy's face first. That's when he saw the knife cut going al the way down her face. It had been there for awhile.
"Dear god,"Wesley whispered.
"What?" Angel asked from behind him.
"This wasn't an attack. Spike has been torturing her for many hours Angel," Welsey said.
Angel stiffened then asked, "How long?"
"About 6. Go get her some clean clothes Angel," Wesley said as he pulled up her bloddy shirt to reveal more cuts on her stomach. "God."
~~~~~
Angel walked in and saw Buffy now that she was all cleaned up. She had stitches on her face and bandeges on her stomach and neck. Her leg was in a tight splint. He head turned to the side and she winced in her sleep. Angel closed the door behind him. She turned her head again and whimpered from a bad dream........
"Shhhh."
*****
Buffy shot up and looked around the room with a gasp.
"Buffy?" Dawn asked.
"Did I wake you?" Buffy asked.
"Just woke up," Dawn said bitting her lip.
"Wha?" Buffy asked seeing Dawn struggling with something.
Dawn crawled over to her sister and cuddled up to her.
"What's wrong?" Buffy asked. "Bad dream?"
"You could say that," Dawn said wryly.
Buffy raised an eyebrow. "Not worse than mine I'm betting."
"Unless it was of your past then I think I got you beat," Dawn blurted out then put a hand to her mouth.
"Dawn?" Buffy asked. "What did you see?"
"Nothing. Don't worry about it."
"Dawn if it has you this freaked then you should tell me. I'm your sister, your guardian, and the only one of us scoobies left. Tell me," Buffy demanded.
Dawn just resered her head against Buffy as she started Crying.
"I'm so sorry," Dwan sobbed.
"Oh God," Buffy said realizing. "Dawn look at me." Dawn kept crying and buried her head deeper into buffy's stomach which she was resting her head on. "Fine then listen. It wasn't your fault. He would have come even if you were there. He would have killed you or made you watch or some other weird vampire psycho thing. Dawnie, I don't blame you."
Buffy stroked her sister's hair as Dawn's tears subsided. Buffy wrapped her arm around her sister's waist and tucked her in next to her. Dawn rested her head on Buffy's pillow by her sister's head.
"Are you sure?" Dawn asked her voice wavering.
"I swear on my life.....Which isn't much seeing as I've died twice," Buff smirked making her sister laugh. "That's my sis. Now let's sleep. Tomorrow's Saturday so we're sleeping in."
