Awaking from a dreamless sleep, Buffy found herself in a dark room. It wasn't like the one she had been in been in before. No, this one was a grey room, again having no windows and she was lying on a double bed, not a single. Buffy sat up and pulled her knees to her chest. She rested her chin on them and let a tear fall from eye.
"God, why didn't I listen to you Spike, when you told me I shouldn't go patrolling alone? Look what I've gotten myself in to." Buffy said aloud to herself as she cried. She put her head face down on he knees and cried. Finally, Buffy just cried herself to sleep.
Buffy sat up slowly and blinked to adjust her eyes to the darkness of the room. She saw someone sitting on the edge of the bed, watching her.
"What do you want?" Buffy said softly.
"It's me, pet." the person said. It took Buffy a second to realise it was Spike. However, a second later she had wrapped her arms around him and was crying.
"Oh, Spike. I'm so scared. Where are we?" Buffy asked as Spike held her.
"Not sure, pet. But I think whoever it is that has captured us wants us alive. Or else there wouldn't be food and stuff in the fridge." Spike told her. And for the first time, Buffy noticed the fridge in the corner of the room and the door leading to the bathroom.
"I guess they do. Spike, I wish I had listened to you when you told me not to go patrolling alone. I should have had Xander or Willow come. Or I should have come asked you. But I went alone and now look, I'm being held captive by God knows who!"
"It probably wouldn't have done any good even if you had had someone with you."
"Spike, I'm scared. I'm really, really scared. This lady told me when I was in another room that you couldn't help me and I couldn't help you. Spike, what did she mean by that?"
"I'm not sure, luv."
Spike pulled Buffy closer to him and held her tight. He kissed the top of her head and started thinking on how to get the two of them out.
Meanwhile:
"Giles! Giles!" Dawn called through the house.
"For heavens sake Dawn, what's the matter?" he asked in his calm, British voice.
"It's Buffy. She never came home from patrolling last night. And when I went to ask Spike if she'd stayed with him, he wasn't in his crypt." Dawn said.
"Are you sure she didn't come home?"
"I'm sure."
"That's odd. I'll have Willow do a locator spell. See if we can find her."
Giles went to find Willow and explained to her what Dawn had said. Soon enough, Willow was sitting in the living room floor trying to locate Buffy.
"That's weird. For some reason it's not working."
"Something's not right. I just know it. Giles, try her cell phone." Dawn said.
Giles picked up the phone and dialled Buffy's cell. It rang once and then voice mail picked it up.
"Her voice mail picked up after one ring. It's not on."
"Giles, where could she be?"
"I'm not sure Dawn. However, I'm sure wherever she is Spike is bound to be with her. After all, you did say Spike wasn't in his crypt. And the only time he's not in his crypt during the day is when he's come over here. You're right Dawn. Something's not right."
