Part 22 – Willow

The streets were still covered with all the snow; it was morning and the sun was just starting to appear; Willow was running without a course and she couldn't stop crying.

Willow's mind was going crazy.

Oh my god! I can't believe that this is happening! How? Why? What it would happen if I had told her before this night, would she be less angry? Willow you stupid girl! She's back for you and you screw up like that? She doesn't deserve me…

Willow was always a woman that follows more her heart than she follows her mind. Her heart had what it wanted. It Had Tara. But her mind, said to her to tell Tara about the magic. The heart won and now she was in trouble again for what she had done.

The streets were empty because it was way early for people to be walking on the streets, Willow kept running not seeing it straight because she was crying and couldn't think right.

From nowhere she felt hugged… she closed her eyes…

"Tara?"

"Grrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaahhh"

"Oh… my….god…demon…."

At Tara's hotel…

After Willow got out of the room Tara was walking from one side to another. Her mind wasn't thinking it straight and she couldn't understand what just had happened. When she finally came to senses, she knew she couldn't let her fall the same way she did before, she knew that she could get really hurt again, and even worse.

She stopped walking and focus, she felt, she felt Willow, she knew her love needed her, she could feel, Willow was in danger.

She got out of the room and started to run, closing her hand and focusing she started to whisper a spell to help her find Willow…

This is a spell that I cast

so it could help me find fast

the love that I best have

Take everything that made us sad

And put that in the past

cause this is the woman that I want to be the last

this is the woman that I want to share my last breath

Closing her hand really strong and focusing she ran a lot and found her woman.

Willow was sat on the snow, her eyes closed and a demon behind her with his sword leaned on Willow's shoulder. The demon was whispering some words that Tara couldn't recognize what language it sounded.

As soon as Tara saw that she went closer and hit with an energy ball against the demon.

"Stay away from her!" Tara said casting spells against the demon.

As soon as the demon saw Tara and was hit by one spell he started to run, Tara tried to go after him, cast another spell, but Willow is what she was more worried about right now.

When the demon got away Willow fell on the snow. Tara ran to her and put Willow in her lap.

"Willow?" Tara said holding Willow's head, her eyes were closed and she was white.

"Oh my god, please Willow, wake up!" Tara put her hand on Willow's neck and felt a pulse, a little one but it still was beating.

"Oh, thank god! I know you're alive, can you hear me? Willow…please, wake up!" Tara said with tears in her eyes. She couldn't let Willow like that in the snow, she took Willow in her arms and went to Kitty hotel, there, Buffy could help.

As soon as she got there, she put Willow in the first couch she found and called Buffy. As soon as everybody came to see what was happening, Tara explained everything, Buffy and the gang was so surprised to see Willow with no reaction and Tara was so worried that she was saying everything so fast, so Buffy took Tara's hand and looked in her eyes.

"Tara!"

"…but I couldn't get there in time, it was all my fault and…" Tara couldn't stop, all she could feel was guilt for letting Willow walk away like that.

"TARA!" Buffy said with a steady voice.

Tara stopped babbling and looked at Buffy.

"Calm down… look at me… sit here." Buffy put Tara to sit and looked a Dawn. "Take her a glass of water?"

"Sure." Dawn replied, going to the kitchen.

"Tara, listen, Willow is going to be okay, you just have to concentrate and be strong now, she need you, are you listening?"

"Yes…"

Dawn came with the glass of water and gave it to Tara. "Here…"

"Thanks…" Tara took a gulp and calmed a little more, she didn't take her eyes off Willow that was lying in front of her.

Buffy kneel in front of Tara and looked her in the eye "She is going to be fine, I promise."

After a moment of calming breaths Tara started talking slowly and detailed.

"We were at my hotel, and we had a fight, cause Willow told me about the dark magic, and then she told me that she had killed Wa...Warren, and it was too much information for me, I thought that Willow could hold to herself, I didn't think she could hurt a human…"

After Tara had explained everything Buffy understood how everything got like that, and it was because of a demon, nothing because neither Willow nor Tara did, so if it was a demon it wasn't anything that they hadn't fought against before.

"Xander, help me get Willow upstairs, she'll be more comfortable there, get her to…" Buffy realized that Willow's room was Kennedy's too, so to be more comfortable Buffy finished her sentenced as "get her to my room."

Xander took Willow and Tara went with her.

"Dawn, research, we need to know what kind of demon was that, how did he sucked Willow's energy, or whatever he has from her now."

"Sure, I'll start right now."

"Good, thanks."

"No problem. I'll be in the library, they have computers there too, maybe I can find something."

"Perfect."
