CHAPTER 4: I know and I am Ready!

Everything is very dark, that eveil feeling is here again . . .I cannot see anything . ..wait! . . .is that spike??? . ..NO!!! . .he cannot turn back to his evil self! . .who's that with him??? . . . .No!!!! . . . .It cant Be!!!!! Not Buffy!!!! . .Spike get away from her!!! No .. .!!!!

I shoot up from bed screaming. . .. My two cats had seemed to know of my distress that they immediately came to comfort me. Thank the gods that it was only a dream. Or was it??? Maybe it was one of my visions??? I began to recall what I had dreamt or should I say saw. It was then that I decided to check on Spike, just to be sure that I was only dreaming. But the moment I stood up, Rei appeared. This is not good, this can only mean one thing, It was not a dream!

" Do not interfere on the events that is about to occur. Let things be as it is. " Rei said.

I know that all of them disapprove my love for Spike, but they cannot stop me! So I walked passed Rei, making my way to my closet.

" Listen to ME!!! YOU CANNOT IN ANYWAY INTERFERE. If you do everything will be in chaos and the end of the world will be immediately upon US! Think about the millions of innocent lives and not just your self or that . .that .. . love of yours! And if you dont follow, WE all will be forced to lock you in. . we can do that and you know it! " Rei seethed as she forcely gripped my wrist.

I stopped my actions and thought, Rei has never been wrong. And if what she says is true, what if I could be the cause of the early end of the world? . .. . I was born to prevent it such diasaters not make it. I love Spike very much but I just cannot let my love for him kill the people I was created to protect. But this does not mean I cant worry about him and his safety.

"Ok, I will not interfere, but at least give me a chance to watch over him? " I asked.

" Yes! You could do that, but one of us will always be with you. It is not that we dont trust you to keep your word, but sometimes when things go the wrong way, we sometimes forget what we are suppose and not suppose to do. We just forget to stop and think things through."

And with that final word, Rei disappeared.

That was last night and so tonight, here I am in the promenade with Ami and Mina trailing Spike. And it seems that I am not the only one. I see that she is here too. And I can clearly see that she does not know a thing about trailing someone. Typical! I bet she would loose him in no time . . and what do you knoe . .I was right! I should be happy right? But no!. . Because I wish I am not an expert tracker, I wish I lost sight of Spike too then I would not have seen it. See Spike take another victim, just like before adn it pains me greatly just to watch and do nothing. . . . I just kept watch . .. watch when he buried the body, watch him go back to Xanders apartment, watch Buffy make plans . . and I still kept watch as Anya try to seduce Him so that she could get away with going over his belongings. That very moment, I wanted to kill that bitch! But Mako and Endy held me back. I felt helpless and I did not like it especially when the Evil one appeared to Spike. . . Now I know what the evil i have been feeling . . . "The First" has finally arrived . .. But I still kept watching even when It tried controlling Spike. I wanted to help him then but I know it was not the right time to do it . ..I wanted to ease his pain , I wanted to comfort him, but I cannot . ..I also wanted to kill It for making him suffer but I cannot . ..I could feel it, it was not the right time. It felt heart wrenching to see him, so I teleported home. When I got there, everyone was waiting. They all had smiles . . I was confused. It was Rei who spoke for all of them. She told me that everything will be OK, Spike in now with Buffy, She and her friends will protecthim. I gave out a snot, I dont think they could protect a mouse if their lives depended on it. But Rei did not mind my snot, she gave a smile. Now I know something is up.

" The council has finally decided, They have deciced to allow you to take part in saving the world. All you have to do is re-train for a day or two, then you can start small and make your way up the evil ladder. That is if you want to accept the challenge?" Rei asked.

I made my evil smirk and spoke up! " You are asking me if I would accept? You must be kidding! Why would I turn down the opportunity to kick ass . . . and save my love at one time!? All that I can say is . . .. Buffy Summers and The First ...watch out coz' im back in business!!! "

And with a blinding light, everyone in the room was gone . . . I will be gone for a day or two . . I prayed that Spike could hold on for that long . .And when I come back, nothing and no one can stop me . . .Just watch and see me do it!!!!!
