Chapter 14

The six scoobies, including newbie Alan Finch had plotted their assault on the mayor's safehouse. Buffy and Faith snuck inside while the others waited. The twin slayers expected the possibility of a trap, but there was nothing. Only Spike guarding the box, and he was expecting them. Faith feared someone else was coming, but Buffy soon figured it out. Spike wasn't cut out for world domination. If the mayor conquered the world what would Spike do? Secretary of transportation. Spike would never admit it outloud but he wanted the mayor to lose. Also Spike had loved demon Buffy. With her gone he was suicidal. Better to die in battle against the twin slayers. Besides, this was Spike's only chance to fight two slayers at once. If he could kill one of them that would mean four slayers in one century, a new record. The fight was long and brutal. Despite Buffy and Spike's recent love they fought each other viciously. To vampires love and violence weren't so different. Spike had killed three slayers in one on one combat. But Buffy and Faith were a team, and they fought well together. Eventually they dusted Spike and took the box.
