Chapter 225
Conner brought his mother back to Spike's crypt. He knew Holtz would kill her, and he had nowhere else to take her. Darla was still a bit loopy, but she knew that Conner was her son. She touhed his face to express her gratitude, Conner was glad to have her back. But this reunion was cut short when Spike came back, angry at Darla and Conner.
Spike: How come you get a happy ending, and I don't? Where is Drusilla?!
Conner: Idon't know. You approached me, said they were both trapped in that cave.
Spike: I wasn't talking to you punk. Darla, where is Dru?!
Darla: Last I saw her I was pregnant. Drusilla said I should be ashamed for giving life. That I wasn't a real demon anymore.
Spike: No, they said you were both trapped in the cave together. I did everything they wanted me to do. Why did they do this to me?
Darla: I don't know. I've been out of the loop for, how old are you Conner?
Conner: 15.
Darla: Wow, 15 years. I'm sorry I wasn't there.
Conner: I understand mom. I love you.
Darla: I love you too.
Spike: Well, isn't this reunion touching. But me, I have some revenge to tend too.. Conner, I'm sure you have a lot of catching up to do. Darla, you'll need your kid's help to adapt to Sunnydale. I'm going to find the bastards who manipulated me, learn why they did this, then give them all very painful deaths.
