Spike, Drusilla and one of their live victims was walking through the cemetery. Spike had brought an archaeologist along to help him find a certain relic. They needed to relic to summon a demon that could distract the slayer long enough for them to go forward with their plan.

"The good doctor here better be right about where to find it?" Spike said as he dragged his victim along the ground.

"Please I told you where it is, now let me go." The Doctor yelled trying to get away.

"How you doing, pet?" Spike asked his paramour.

"The stars are yelling at me, warning me. A storm is coming. Thunder and Lighting, Thunder and Lighting." Drusilla said as she clapped along to her little song. Then she grew tired and almost fainted.

"Looks like you could use a pick me up." Spike said as he dropped the doctor on the ground.

Drusilla knelt down beside him and began to touch his cheeks.

"So warm. Always in the cold but no more." Drusilla said as she vamped out and bit into her victim. As she drank she could feel her strength returning.

"Look at it this way Doc, spending all your life digging up bones now you are the one they'll be digging up." Spike said as the man died.

"Tell me again how you found out about this jar luv?" Spike asked.

"A dead wind whispered it to me." Drusilla said grinning.

Spike and Drusilla walked into a very large crypt. They spotted what they were looking for rather easily. Spike grabbed the jar and ran towards the door. He stopped right before reaching the door since he heard voices coming from outside.

"Bloody hell it's the slayer and one of her friends. Come on Dru I've got plan."

"He got you knives?" Willow asked out of disbelief.

"Yeah I told him that's not something you give your girlfriend for Christmas and that's when he made with the wailing." Buffy said.

"Just because of that?"

"Well, I might have said that he wasn't normal." Buffy said nervously.

"Ohh you told him that? Well I can kind of see why he yelled." Willow said.

"Wil don't jump ship on my now." Buffy pleaded.

"Don't worry still on the Buffy boat here. It's just your being mad at him for not being normal and that's something he can't help."

"I know it's just everything has been so hard lately. I need to find a balance with my double life." Buffy said as she could here someone coming.

"SLAYER!" Spike said with hatred.

"Spike. Willow run." Buffy yelled to her friend.

Following her friends command Willow began to run as fast as she could then suddenly she felt a kick in her left leg. She could feel the bone break as she fell to the ground.

"Willow!" Buffy yelled as she saw Drusilla descending upon her friend.

"Can't let her miss all the fun now can we." Spike said with a chuckle.

Buffy ran to help her friend but Spike put her in a head lock. She watch helplessly as Drusilla was about to bite into Willow. Suddenly Angel came out of nowhere and tackled Drusilla.

Buffy then grabbed Spike's arms and threw him off of her. She began pummeling him as hard as she could. She was mad; Mad that she couldn't protect Willow, Mad that she had brought her along in the first place, Mad at the universe for not letting her have a normal life.

"Your right Spike this is fun." She said as she kicked him in the face.

"Just watch yourself Slayer. Dru and I have big plans for you." Spike said as he ran off with Drusilla into the night.

Buffy ran over to her injured friend. She saw the blood and began to cry. All of this was her fault.

"She needs to get to a hospital, I'll take her." Angel said as he lifted Willow into his arms and took off.

Buffy was left alone like always.
