Okay, here ya go, chapter 3
The living room, Tara is standing on the stairs looking at Gunn, Angel, Wes, and Fred, who have just broken into the door that Xander had just fixed. Connor, Oz, Giles, Willow, Dawn, and Spike just marvel at everything that has just happened in their walkway. Dawn runs over to Fred, and pulls her deeper into the house, and they run into the kitchen. Wes walks over to Giles and they shake hands. Angel goes over to Connor and they stand next to each other. Gunn goes over to Faith, and sits down next to her. Tara comes down the stairs, and comes over in front of Oz and Willow.
"Hey, I can explain everything." Everyone except Donny nods their heads. The first thing that Tara does is commands Donny up.
"Get up." Tara says with more force then ever seen from her before, she almost sounds evil. Donny scrambles to get up.
"Look, Tara, honey, I never meant to.."
"Shut up." Tara says, and pushes Donny into a chair, and is magically bound and gagged.
"Okay, explaining, I can do it. Let me just say that, this man, is horrible, worse then any of you can imagine. You don't want to be anywhere near him, and if you are, you want a lot of weapons between the two of you, preferably on your side. Now I know what happened to Buffy, and then Faith, I was called here because of that. Oz, you have to know that it is in no way your fault. What happened to Buffy… is indescribable. What happened to Faith, I'll get to that later, but right now, there are more important things at hand. Like for example, what happened to…"
The incredible woman entering the house, with tanned skin, and brown hair with loose curls cuts off Tara. She just walked in and everyone immediately looked at her, and shut up. Wearing three-inch heals, black leather pants (just like Faith's, only tighter) and a nice white tanktop, with a bright red leather jacket. It was Cordy. And she was pissed off.
The Living room. Cordy has just walked in. She notices Faith, she runs over to her side, pushing everyone out of her way. She kneels down to her side, and holds out her hands, one above Faith's head, and one near she stomach. A bright Blue light shines from her hands. Faith jumps up. Faith and Cordy walk over to Tara and they stand all in a line. They look like the evil three musketeers. They hold hands, with Tara in the middle, and Cordy on her left, and Faith on her right. Cordy pulls out a piece of paper, and Faith holds one of the side of if. They start whispering.
"Adduce veritatum in lucem. Accipitat laura suam requiatam reposcant anima suum regnum." They whisper together, just like a single voice. All of their hair turns just likes Tara, pitch-black. They disappear, leaving everyone in the room stunned. Dawn comes back into the living room with Fred. Fred goes over to Gunn, and holds his hand. Dawn goes over to Connor and hugs him. Angel goes over to Spike, they nod and go upstairs. Wesley and Giles go down to the basement. Gunn pulls up a chair next to the couch, Fred sits in it. Dawn breaks away from Connor and runs upstairs to her room. Connor runs after her. Gunn, Fred, Oz, and Willow are the only people left in the living room. Gunn is looking at the couch where Faith used to be. Willow looks down at her toes. Oz goes upstairs, sensing something.
Buffy's room. Buffy's body has been removed. Spike is standing on one side of the bed, Angel is on the other side. They are both staring where Buffy was. They are both crying.
"I don't know what to say." Spike says
"I know what you mean."
"Yep, it just feels so…"
"Yeah."
"Uh-huh" Spike responds.
Willow's room. Faith, Tara, and Cordy are sitting on the bed. Oz walks in.
"I want to help" He says
"Really? Why?"
"The Key and The Destroyer have to rule, or you couldn't. I've done my homework, you do you think that I would come here? For a cup of tea?" He leaves leaving them with grim faces. Oz goes back down stairs
The living room. Everyone is cleaning up the coffee table
"Where'd you go?" Gunn asks
"Bathroom." Oz says, not explaining anything.
The basement, Wesley is looking at the chained up Andrew. Giles is looking at the floor, twiddling his fingers.
"Why is this man chained up?" Wesley asks
"Hmm. Oh, he got on Willow's nerve."
"Right, remind me not to do that."
"Okay."
"Yep" Wesley says
"Why did you come here?"
"We got a call."
"Alright."
Dawns room. Dawn is crying on her bed. Connor is standing in the doorway. Connor walks up to her. She sits up, and leans on his arm.
"I understand." Connor says
"What do you understand?"
"How you feel."
"How could you, you don't have a Buffy."
"Yeah, but I know that she was like a mom to you, and my mom died."
"I'm sorry."
"Its no problem really, I mean, she died while giving birth to me."
"Me too, my mother died also."
"How?"
"A tumor in her brain. There was nothing that I could do."
"Hey, your gonna be fine, I wont let anything happen to you."
"How?"
"You have so many people in your life that love you."
"Right, then how come so many of them keep leaving me?"
"Look, you still have Giles, and Spike and Angel, Gunn, Wes, Fred, Xander, Willow, and Oz."
"Giles is too busy with out a job, Spike is still torturing Andrew, Angel never calls, Gunn is always fighting vamps, Wes it too suck up, Fred always has her nose in a book, Xander is always at a construction site, Willow is doing so much magic its gonna kill her just not literally, and Oz is always in Tibet so he never comes back. "
"Hey, but look at them all now, they all came together in a time of need."
"And that time of need just happens to be Buffy."
"No, it wasn't Buffy."
"What do you mean?"
"We, or actually I got a call from Riley, saying that something was going to happen to Faith, so I came here and watched her."
"But you never showed yourself?"
"Not until I knew what was going to happen."
"What was going to happen?"
"She was going to…" The little puppy that pushes open the door cuts off Connor.
"Puppy!" Dawn squeals. She jumps off the bed and go over to the puppy, and puts it on the bed. She goes to shut the door, then goes over to her desk, and takes out a little tug-of-war toy, she returns to the puppy, and begins to play with it. Connor doesn't know what to think of the puppy.
"That's a dog?"
"No silly, it's a puppy. Its like a dog, just smaller and younger."
"Can I play with it?"
"It?"
"Um.. Him?"
"Wrong again."
"Sorry, can I play with her?" Dawn just smiles, Connor comes over to her, and gives her a kiss on the cheek, and then proceeds by taking the toy from her. Dawn goes over to her chair, and takes out her laptop, and starts looking for a memorial service for Buffy.
The living room. Gunn is sitting on the couch, with Fred sitting on his lap. Willow and Oz are cleaning up the coffee table mess. Donny is still tied up to the chair. Xander is sitting in a lounge chair, next to the couch.
"What did you mean, You never meant to?" Fred says, talking to Donny
"Huh, oh, I um…"
"Spit it out. Now."
"Why? What are you gonna do?"
"I'm not very happy right now."
"So what?"
"When my girls not happy! I'm not happy!" Gunn screams
"Okay, I told her that if she ever left, I would kill all of her friends"
"What?" Willow says
"Excuse me? You can't kill us." Oz says
"What do you mean?" Donny asks not understanding.
"I mean, nobody can kill any of us, we are one." Willow says
"I have more power then you can imagine."
"No you don't." Gunn says
"Yes I do!"
"I've gone evil and had all of the worlds power at my finger tips, Oz is a werewolf, he is connected to a primal force, that you could never understand, Fred spent 5 years in a hell dimension where humans were treated like cows. Faith and Buffy are slayers, the only people in the world who can possess more power then you could hope to imagine, Dawn was a Key, that could unlock the entire evil world, Angel and Spike are the worst vampires in the history of the world. Connor was The Destroyer, nobody can stop him. Wes and Giles used to work at the council with every piece of history at their fingertips, they know more then you will in your entire life. Do you understand?" Willow babbled
"Yeah, everyone single one of those things happened in the past. You have no power now."
"Yes we do. Fred says
"Says the cow slave."
"You little" Fred lunges at him, Gunn grabs her
"Hey, he's not worth it."
"You're right, you're not worth my time." Fred says
"See, no power."
"We have power, we just won't tap into it for a worthless piece of crap like you." Oz says
"What, because you just have a lifetime supply?"
"You couldn't hope to grasp the source of our power."
"Yeah, its probably just a book" Spike walks in.
"Actually its every single book of magic in the world. You wouldn't want to end up like Andrew would you?"
"Why?"
"We tapped into it, that's how he got how he is now." Willow responds
"Get him out of our sight." Fred says. Spike picks up the chair, and takes him down to the basement. Around five minutes pass.
"I still don't understand. And I should, I mean, I normally understand things like this." Fred says
"How so baby?" Gunn asks
"I just don't understand why they left."
"Well, who would want to stay up here after what had just happened?" Oz responds with.
"I don't think that they'll do it" They all nod, thinking that Fred is talking about Angel and Spike killing Donny. "But they have good reason, I mean what he did, its horrible. So I understand why, with all the shock"
"The shock, they fled upstairs like a bunch of sissies, they should have stayed down here, and tried to figure out how to get them back. They came and then left in like 4 seconds, I mean did any of you realize what they were chanting? It sounded like Latin, but it might not have been…" Willow continue to babble to herself.
"It was a calling power spell." Everyone looks at Xander who has awoken.
"But, Xand… how?"
"Even thought I was sleeping, I could tell what was happening around me, It like looking through a cloudy window, you can still see everything, it's just distorted. I did have some time to think, about everything. I understand everything a little bit clearly now. Cordy came because she had a vision of Buffy dying, She got the vision from Tara, Who sent it to her because Faith contacted the sprit realms, and told the guardians that the slayer line was going to end. She knew this because Cordy had a vision of Donny murdering Faith. Cordy had gone to find Faith and let her know, triggering Faith to go to the guardians."
Everyone is stunned that Xander had known all of this. Suddenly Tara, Cordy, and Faith appear in the middle of the room. They walk to the couch, Gunn and Fred get up. They sit down, Tara in the middle, Faith on the left and Cordy on the right. Their hair and eyes turn back to normal.
"Any questions?" They say as a single voice.
Oh.. Cliffy!!!
What do you think?
