Buffy walked downstairs and everyone stood, watching her. She looked at the ground, knowing her eyes were still red and puffy from the nonstop crying. Dawn ran forward and threw her arms around Buffy. "It's alright Dawn… I am back…" Buffy whispered to her sister and held her for a moment before Dawn released her and took a step back.
"Buffy, we are here for you. We have all relocated here. Figure without… Wolfram and Hart… evil will be big, and we want to help you." Xander said slowly, choosing his words carefully as to not mention Angel's name.
Buffy's eyebrows raised in slight surprise. "All of you?" She asked, looking to Giles who had always thought Buffy should be more independent. Giles smiled to Buffy and nodded. A small smile broke on her face as Spike came down the stairs next to her.
"So, where we headed?"
The whole gang walked down the LA streets. Xander had his arm Willow, having been away from each other for a year, he had missed his friend a lot and were catching up. Giles was in the back talking to Illyria as she questioned him. She decided to stick around and stay with the Scooby Gang, despite only knowing Spike.
"You were a ghost Spike! That is so cool!" Dawn cried out, hugging Spike. She heard Spike was brought back to life and couldn't be any happier. Spike laughed and Dawn smiled, enjoying when he called her Nibblet, a nickname she had missed a lot when Spike died.
"Yeah, brought back to Wolfram and Hart, I thought it was to haunt Peaches…" Spike said, forcing on a smile. He spoke quietly, not wanting Buffy to hear Peaches name, not wanting another break down, especially after he managed to get her out of the hotel. The death of Angel also brought a hit to Spike. He had been with Angel for centuries and Angel died destroying evil. And Spike felt something when he died, the bond of his family being cut.
Buffy walked slowly, her eyes gazing upon an alley. She saw two figures in the alley and heard a scream. Everyone looked up as Buffy took off running into the alley. She froze, seeing a vampire biting into a girl. Buffy grabbed up her stake and flipped the vampire out, surprising him.
Buffy gripped the vampire by the neck and lifted him. The vampire struggled to get free but her grasp was holding him too tight. It was as if Angel's death made Buffy twice as strong. The vampire's face returned back into human form as he fought, trying to get out of her vice grip. Buffy raised her stake to stab the vampire in the heart but froze, hearing a familiar voice.
"Freeze." Buffy turned to look at the cop who was holding a gun, pointed at Buffy. She dropped the vampire and it fell to the ground, looking to Buffy and sneering "Slayer" before he took off.
Buffy's head suddenly shut down as she felt woozy and fell to the ground, passed out. The woman who was about to be bit, looked down at Buffy and looked up up to the officer. "This girl saved me… that man was about to kill me!" The woman sobbed as the office put his gun back and walked over to Buffy and the victim.
The rest of the gang caught up to Buffy, breathing fast (Except Spike) wondering how she could've been able to run that fast. They all froze, seeing the officer.
"Peaches!" Spike cried out, saying the exact thing everyone was thinking as they stared at the officer.
Like that ending? Cliffhanger. Review and I will post sooner:P
