In a room

Chapter 3: Things just got worse

"See, it's working!!!!!!!"Alex cried with joy.

Her brother sighed deeply," I don't think that's right........"

"They're still in the room, are they not?"Alex asked, trying to seem smart.

"I guess they are, that doesn't mean it's working.... they're not insane yet....."

A huge grin crept onto Alex's face,"Yet being the key word! Now, trust me! They will all go insane if we leave them in there long enough!"

"Well, we can just let them stave to death you know,"David pointed out.

"What?! Kill them?!!!!! What's wrong with you?! We can't /kill/ them!!!! That's like murder!!!!!!!! I don't want to be a murder!!!!!!!!!!"Alex yelled.

David walked over to her, and pushed her into the wall. "Listen, I'm in charge now. We do it my way, not 'we're going to drive them insane', no, it's now we are going to kill them, then take over. I won't let you stop me from doing this, I'll kill you before you can."

Alex glared at her brother, pushing him off,"go screw yourself!!!!!!!!"she screamed, running out the door.

David smiled a little,"Guards, go get her and bring her back....... wouldn't want her to get hurt..........."

Buffy woke up, and yawned a little. She looked around, Spike was the only other one up. "good morning buffy,"he told her.

Buffy walked over to him, "Spike.... why are you up?"She asked. The two were standing next to the sleeping willow's feet.

"Why does it matter, it seems you are you as well...."he pointed out.

"Well, how many times do you think I would have to through you against the wall before I make a crack in it?"she asked.

Spike,"................"

"Not so load! I'm trying to sleep!"Xander yelled,with a yawn.

"Shut up Xander, you're loader then the both of them,"Willow said.

"........ I just want to get some sleep,"Xander pointed out.

"Xander, you seem to be causing a lot of problems. Are you aware of that?"Giles asked.

"What, is everyone against me now?"Xander asked.

"We are not against you, Xander!"Willow said, with a sigh.

"I am,"Spike said, with a grin.

"Spike!!!!!"Buffy yelled.

"What, just telling the truth..."Spike said, still grinning.

"That's not the point!"Buffy yelled.

"What, he is that one who's always causing us problems, not to mention..."he whispered something in Buffy's ear.

Buffy's eyes got wide,"how do you know- wait, I don't want to know...."

He smiled a little,"I'm sure Willow can agree with me on it.... want to ask her?"

Willow looks at Spike, a little confused.

"NO! That's ok, I believe you! You don't have to go around telling people that!!!"Buffy yelled.

"What are you guys talking about?"Xander asked.

"Nothing at all!!!!!!!"Buffy yelled.

"Buffy.... what is it? What did he tell you?"Willow asked.

"Well..... um...................."Buffy started, trying to change subject, but finding nothing to change it too,"Spike...... that's was so------ gorse!!!!!!!!!! I really didn't want to know that?!!!!!!!!! And, why would willow know that?! Spike!"

"Oh, is little buffy upset now?"Spike asked.

"I......... I don't want to look at Xander anymore......... "buffy started.

"Buffy! What did he tell you?!"Xander asked, getting ticketed, "you shouldn't believe anything he says!"

"maybe we should just tell them what I said, then he can say it's true himself,"Spike said.

"No, let's not........."Buffy said.

"Oh,come on Buffy. Shouldn't they all know?"Spike asked.

"NO! They shouldn't!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"Buffy yelled.

That's when Angel got up,"Will you all shut up? You are giving me a headache, and I'll hurt all of you if I have to, just to make you all shut up."

"But..."Buffy started.

"Xander's short..........." Spike said.
