Contemplations
Angel POV
You come in cold, you're covered in blood
They're all so happy you've arrived
The doctor cuts your cord, hands you to your mom
She sets you free into this life
Angel sat in his office and thought deeply. He remembered his childhood. He had been so innocent, ignorant of the evil in this world.
Cordy had been innocent too. Now she's dead.
Doyle had known the evil in the world and that still didn't help him. He was the first one to die in the field.
Gunn had had a hard life. He had learned early on the coldness in this city.
Fred…poor, sweet Fred…so smart and beautiful…but that had led to her demise.
Lorne had always loved music. He had come to this dimension for it; all he found was death and destruction.
My miracle child, Connor, growing up in a hell dimension…so violent was his childhood he became a psychotic killer.
Wesley had been a prim and proper Englishman. Then he came to L.A. and became what he is today: a killer.
And where do you go
With no destination, no map to guide you
Wouldn't you know?
That it doesn't matter; we all end up the same
Illyria had been a goddess, worshipped and adored by many. Now she walked around the building in a shell, a shadow of her former greatness.
Harmony had been the popular girl that whined a lot, now she is the vampire girl that whines a lot.
Last and certainly least, we have Spike, who grew up not knowing his father or even love. Then he is turned and doomed to suffer all eternity without what he desires most…love. He gets a soul in hopes of changing that but nothing results of it except more guilt than ever before.
These are the Chronicles of Life and Death and everything between
These are the stories of our lives, as fictional as they may seem
You come in this world, and you go out just the same
Today could be the best day of your life
Buffy POV
Money talks in this world
That's what idiots will say
But you'll find out, that this world
Is just an idiots parade
Buffy sat in her room, remembering when her biggest worry had been winning prom queen, now I worry more about whether I'll live another day. She thought about all those who had helped her with her never-ending fight…
Willow…geeky, mousey Willow…now a powerful Wicca…
Xander…goofy, funny Xander…forever doomed to have only one eye. I can only imagine his pain at the loss of Anya…
Before you go, you've got some questions and you want answers
But now you're old, cold covered in blood, right back to where you started from
Giles…bookworm…Watcher…my father figure…who has seen more than he ever thought he would…
She thought about everyone who had lost their lives for the cause…all gone.

These are the stories of our lives, as fictional as they may seem
You come in this world and you go out just the same
Today could be the worst day of you life
Piper POV
Piper sat in her club and thought of how sweet she and her sisters had been when they were small and now we have demons to deal on a regular basis. She sighed. Leo's insane, Phoebe's having love problems, Paige is running Magic School, I have to take care of my kids and this club, Daryl isn't exactly an ally anymore, and to top it off, Prue, Andy, and Chris are dead.
These are the Chronicles of Life and Death and everything between
These are the stories of our lives as fictional as they may seem
You come in this world, and you go out just the same
Today could be the best day of,
Today could be the worst day of,
Today could be the last day of your life
It's your life
Your life
All three of these unusual contemplators knew one thing for sure. 'Hell on Earth' is not just a saying. It's the truth.
