The Bronze

Buffy's Point Of View

After she stormed out I looked around at my friends. They were all trying to process the information that I had given them. Finally Xander spoke.

"I never liked Angel guess it was justified." Xander said cynically

"Don't blame Angel, Xander I am just as responsible as he was. But if you think about it, it was the Gypsies fault. But you now know that will never happen. Now, Giles for appearances sake I need you to pull everything you can on Drusilla, Spike, and The Judge. Xander, Willow we'll go to the Bronze for my birthday and as far as anyone is concerned it's still a surprise." Buffy said

By the time I finished talking my voice was hard. Then everyone at once moved to do what I asked. Willow came over to me she caught my gaze and held it.

"You have to tell Angel you owe him that Buffy." Willow said her voice serious.

"I know but how do you tell that to the one person you love most in the world that you sent him to hell?"

I started to cry.

"How can I?" I asked more to myself than Willow.

"You don't have a choice, because he will think that something is wrong if you keep spouting this future knowledge. Besides my guess if you don't tell him Xander will out of spite." Will said with the same note of seriousness as before.

"Tonight after my birthday I will. I just want to be Buffy for the party not the Slayer to." I said my voice sad

"Do you want me to come over and help you chose an outfit?" Willow asked

"No, I'm just going to go home and talk to my mom." I answered

By that time we were out of the library and we had to part at the street corner. I started to walk home. My mind was in a whirl. But one thing was clear. I would have to tell angel what I knew and I would have to tell my mother that I was the slayer. When I had resolved this I went into the house.

"Oh, Buffy your home. Willow called she wants to meet up later at the Bronze and to call her back." Mom said

"Thanks. After I go to the Bronze could we talk it's important." I said

"Sure, Buffy I'll be home.'

I hurried up the stairs to my room changed into some comfortable yet cute slaying cloths. Then went downstairs for a moment then started towards the Bronze. When I got there it was like everything was replaying. So I just went with it. After being thrown threw the window and then staking the vampire and grabbed the box from the other side of the window.

"Surprise." They yelled

I just rolled my eyes and hefted the box on the nearest table.

"What's in there?" Angel asked

"The Judge." I answered

He looked confused. Like there was some part of information that he wasn't getting he was about to ask. But Willow came to the rescue.

"How do we destroy it." Willow asked

"That's easy. Xander is going to steal a rocket launcher from the Army." I said.

"Buffy what the hell is going on here?" Angel asked a little pissed off

"Angel, I-I promise I will explain later." My eyes meeting his I knew they were full of pain. But I couldn't help it.

"Alright, later." He said his voice turned soft

"Buffy your going to need a more detailed plan than that." Giles said

"Yeah you can't just waltz in to the Sunnydale base and take weapons." Cordy said

"What are you guys talking about?" Oz asked confused.

"Vampires and Demons are real a lot of them live in Sunnydale and Buffy is the Slayer don't tell anybody ok?" Xander said sarcastically

"Hey that actually makes sense." Oz said to himself.

"That's ok I have a plan. Xander I know you remember all of your army training from when you were soldier guy. So all you have to do is take Cordy as a distraction and hand Willow and Oz the launcher and bring it to the Mansion." I explained

"Yes but how does that actually kill the Judge." Giles asked confused

"Easy on my way back to the mansion I am going to allow that lesser vamps get the arms so that he is assembled then Angel and I go and I kill him." I finished

"Can you open gifts first?" Willow asked

"Sure, Why not." I said

"Yes, Buffy why don't you open your presents." Jenny Calendar's voice echoed through the club.

"Angel get behind me." I said

He looked confused and stayed where he was. I turned my attention to Jenny.

"So your taking the cowards way out of this I should have known. Or rather you should have been smart enough to stay away."

I didn't raise my voice, though I knew with absolute certainty that she could hear every word that I spoke. She came out of the shadows right in front of me.

"I should have killed you." I stated

"Perhaps. But you have respect for all human life even for those you hate." She replied

I glanced at Angel he looked stunned like he couldn't believe what I had said. But half a second later my attention was focused on Jenny Calendar.

"Should you fail we will not hesitate to kill him do you understand?" Jenny asked

"You have my word that should I fail I will be the one to deal with it. For it will be my burden alone. And should you interfere with Sunnydale business again, I will kill you because from this moment you are nothing but demons now do you understand?" I said my voice had hardened into that of a warrior

"We understand." Jenny said

"Good now leave."

She walked out the door without looking back.

"We need to terminate the Judge so everyone you know what we have to do."

We went our separate ways.
