Divine Intervention
Willow had been watching Oz deteriorate for 3 weeks now. His heartbeat was getting weaker. She knew exactly the spell she wanted to try, but was too torn between going evil and killing everyone insight or saving her ex's life. Then doctor came and gave him less than 2 days. When he had said that she had set her jaw. She couldn't stand being powerless anymore. She had took Oz's cold hand and started pulling power from the earth below her.
Karen came in and watched for a second and offered her support. Willow had been taken by the support, and began collecting the energy from the earth to start healing Oz's leg. Willow sighed and concentrated on the spell letting the familiar magic pass through her body and out her fingertips. If he was too far-gone this would kill him. Willow had contemplated this for a while and decided that if he was that far gone he wouldn't want to wake up.
The pain in her heart was too unbearable for her to just stand back and watch it happen any longer. She had turned her back on her fears and wasn't looking back until Oz was either dead or better.
Knockin' on heaven's doorTara and Oz stood in a deserted pub. Tara was making a happy face on the top of a table with some peanuts. The salt scattered across the black table top like a snowstorm of tiny crystals. She looked up at him and he stared back for a second before she said. "Thank you." Softly. Oz shook his head. "Not one for 'thanks' palms get all sweaty and I gotta bail." Oz said looking down at her.
Tara smiled. "He was the only thing keeping me back you know." She said after a minute. Suddenly Oz was talking to the Tara he had met back in Sunnydale. Her stutter was gone. "You sing good." Oz said frowning. Tara smiled. "She thought so too." Tara said looking sad.
Oz looked down. "I get to go on now." Tara said smiling sadly. "Is that why you didn't like men?" Oz asked, realization suddenly dawning on him. Tara nodded. "He raped me, I couldn't stand to see another man again." She explained sadly. "I'm sorry…" Oz said getting up. "No…. don't be. You proved to me that not all men deserve that title." Tara said getting up too.
Oz ran a hand through his hair. "Care for one last song?" Tara asked. Oz knew she could finally pass on and smiled weakly. "Certainly." He said walking toward the little stage in the back of the bar and situating himself on a stool with an acoustic. Tara took up the microphone and they stood in silence in front of a bunch of empty tables for a few seconds then, Tara started to sing and Oz followed up on guitar.
(G''n R's, knockin on heaven's door)
Mama, take this badge over me
I can't use it anymore
It's gettin' dark, too dark to see
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Mama, take these guns away from me
I can't use them anymore
There's a long black cloud is comin' down
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Mama, take this badge over me
I can't use it anymore
It's gettin' dark, too dark to see
I feel like I'm knockin on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
By then end of the song a spotlight was in the middle of stage and hit Tara. Oz watched totally at peace with himself in his favorite place in the world doing the thing he loved best as Tara floated up and through the ceiling. "You were my angel…" she whispered before disappearing.
