Author's Note: Do not open till Christmas.

Buffy the Cliché Slayer

Holiday Special

A Very Merry Buffy Cliché Christmas

Twas the night before the night before Christmas

And all through Joyce's House

Not a creature was stirring

Well except Andrew who was busy "clicking his mouse."

The stockings were hung by the big hole where the chimney used to be with care.

And everyone forgot that they were still off the air.

The Scoobies were nestled all snug in their beds

While nightmares of Season 6 played in their heads.

And Buffy in her nightie and Spike dressed in grey

Had just settled in for one more romp in the hay

When up on the rooftop their arose such a clatter

That Buffy got up to make its blood splatter

She grabbed "Mr. Pointy" from off of the wall

No one interrupts her vampire booty call

To what should her baby green eyes should play tricks

She saw a miniature sleigh and eight tiny fanfics

With a little young driver so skinny and slow

She groaned to herself "Oh Gawd, not Steve-0"

More rapid than his updates he cracked his big whip

"Move you tired old plotlines and give me no lip!"

"Now AU, Now Spuffy, Now Generations, Slash that means you

On OC, on Song Fic, on X-over, and Mary Sue.

To the top of the page, from my Magic 8-ball

Now review, review, review them all!"

Buffy gave a small sigh as she put on her robe

And knew she was in a fic that has gone down the commode.

Then before she could realize that last stanza didn't rhyme

Steve-0 came down the chimney in the St. Nick of time

He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his boot

A 98lb. man in a full-sized Santa suit.

A bundle of fanfics he had slung on his back.

He looked like a junkie all strung out on crack.

His eyes were all bloodshot from writing so late

Buffy wondered why it took him so long to finish a story because since obviously he couldn't get a date

His nose it was long and his brown hair was unkempt

How the crap do I find a rhyme for unkempt?

"What the $# are you doing here?" The little blonde cursed

"Shouldn't you be finishing that story or writing something worse?"

NOW, NOW LITTLE SLAYER, THERE'S NO NEED TO FEAR

I COME TO BRING YOU AND YOUR SCOOBIES SOME HOLIDAY CHEER.

"Spare me," The slayer said with a gag

"Ok let's get this over with. What's in your bag?"

A SLASH FIC FOR TARA AND FOR DAWN ONE WHERE YOU'VE FLED

AND LOOK HERE'S A FIC WHERE ANYA'S NOT DEAD.

I'VE GOT FANFIC PRESENTS FOR ALL FOR THAT IS MY GOAL

EXCEPT FOR THE ADMINISTRATOR WHO KICKED ME OFF THE SITE FOR THEM THEY GET COAL.

Buffy rolled her eyes and said "Look, as much as I find this to be an amusing tome."

"It's going to get deleted by the administrator too, because it's a poem."

BUT YOU SEE EVERY YEAR, RIGHT AROUND THIS TIME

PEOPLE TAKE AN OLD CHRISTMAS IDEA AND COMMIT THE PLAGERISM CRIME

THEY'LL STICK YOU GUYS IN A CHRISTMAS CAROL STORY OF SOME KIND

AND THAT'S THE EXACT CLICHÉ PARODY I HAD IN MIND.

AND NOW THAT IT'S WRITTEN I'LL BE ON MY WAY.

Buffy thanked God it was over and he didn't stay.

But before he had left he had one thing to do

"MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL EXCEPT FOR WILLOW THE JEW!
