Chapter 7

By the time they came to a stop, both Buffy and Spike were ready to pass out. "Please tell me there will be no more moving faster than the speed of light," Buffy said putting a hand to her head.

Spike agreed. "I feel like I did after a ate that pig's blood that was in the back of the fridge."

Amanda rolled her eyes at the both of them. These were supposed to be the champions of the world, and they couldn't even handle a little speed. She didn't think she'd ever understand the world. "We should be done with the high acceleration. For now anyways."

Right in front of them Spike saw a giant mechanical horned beast munching on three bodies. "Hey, I thought Satan was supposed to be doing that," He questioned.

"Yes, well modern technology is a wonder," Amanda explained. "That would be the new and improved Lucifer, made for all your torturing needs. Say hello to Eternity's finest victims: Judas, Brutus, and Cassius; the betrayers."

Buffy crinkled her nose. "Ewww. You can hear their bones crunching, and hey isn't this a bit lazy of Satan. Isn't this supposed to be his punishment? How did he get out of it?"

Amanda shrugged. "Evil is a funny thing. Any who, this is where I must leave you." Buffy and Spike began to protest. Amanda put up a hand. "I can't help you defeat Satan. I'm considered to be a neutral demon, but I can give you a little help."

"Any help would be greatly appreciated," Spike said.

"Somehow I don't think you'll feel the same after I give it to you," Amanda smirked. "Toodles," She said before she disappeared the same way she came, in a puff of smoke.

In her place stood Ziva and Devon. Spike growled. "Amanda!!"

Buffy was ticked too. "Amanda, get you butt back here! You can't do this. Their just children!"

All that could be heard was a faint whisper, "It's their destiny."

Buffy was about to explain to Amanda about how she could screw destiny when Devon interrupted her. "It's okay Mummy. We're ready to help."

Buffy knelt down in front of the twins, admiration showing in her eyes. "I know you guys would do anything to help Errinn, but you shouldn't have to."

Ziva put her tiny hand on Buffy's cheek. "You shouldn't have to either Mum."

Buffy felt a lump in her throat as Spike squeezed her shoulder. "Buffy you can't fight what their meant to do, no matter how hard you wish you could." She gave a short nod. "Alright all, which way should we head?"

"Daddy we have to wait for Igoraphus," Ziva explained, tugging on Spike's sleeve.

"Igoraphus?"

"At you service, Sir," A hunched back creature said as he came forward. "We must hurry if you wish to save your daughter."

When Igoraphus turned away Spike grabbed his arm. "And who are you?"

"Oh I'm sorry. It's been so long, I tend to forget proper etiquette. I am Igoraphus, most trusted servant of Satan."
