Part 1/%: Party

The Bronze, they hadn’t had anything quite like this in England, Flick thought to her self, as she looked around she had grown up in a little village in Cumbria. They were cut of form the rest of the world for two months of the year. She had been the only girl in the town which had four other boys plus she had a brother that was two years older than her so naturally she as a bit of a tomboy.

“Come on dance!” Xander said

Reluctantly Flick got to her feet and began to dance with her friends. They had every reason to party they had saved the world. The Mayor was dead and Anna’s bunch had taken serious casualties. Not that they had got off completely intact; Xander had a hefty cast on his left arm. Willow had broken her leg and but was still up and dancing on crutches. Sarah had the most fantastic black eye, which she was proud of.  Henry had received a nasty bump to the head he had been out for nearly the whole night given everyone a fright, Cordelia had a nasty gash a cross her cheek and making more of it than it actually was.  Stephanie had neck brace she had whiplash from being thrown across the yard.  Flick was lust stiff almost completely healed from the beating she had taken.  Quickly exhausted that all retreated back to their seats. Henry had even come along but looked out of place but that didn’t matter at the moment.

“To us” Flick said raising her glass

“The Slayerettes and the New York branch” Xander said raising his glass they had all decided to stick together after Buffy’s death and the other’s. Stephanie was going to be going to Sunnydale Uni, in the fall along with Willow.  Sarah had made arrangements for her course to be sent home so she would be attending Sunnydale without ever having to set foot on the campus. Cordelia was off to LA to try and become an actress.  Flick was going to school the pupils of the former Sunnydale high were all to be shipped off to a school in the other town until a new school could be built which would at least be a year.  Xander’s parents couldn’t afford to send him to Uni. So Henry had given him a lob at his bookshop. Which he had just opened he specialized in rare books they had rescued all of the books from the library and Giles’ collection, it would be a good cover.

Killing the mayor had been a stroke of the magical genius. Flick had had this weird dream involving Buffy, Faith and explosives. They hadn’t able to get hold of any of those but thanks to Stephanie, Xander and a couple of hundred pounds of fertilizer it had been a synch, or more a singe. The main problem had been getting the Mayor into the library. Which had been solved by a little magic on Willow’s part she had cast a spell making the mayor think that Flick was Faith and he had followed her straight into the trap.  Anna however had been a little more of a problem. She had been the one leading the vampires in their attack along with Faith. It had only been the end of the eclipse that had stopped the fight.

Faith and Flick were fighting it out but coming to stalemate. Anna was hell bent on killing Sarah as usual but Stephanie was determined to aid her friend. They nearly had Anna when the sun started to come out she had then escaped back into the sewers, perused by Angel. Flick was still reeling from the knowledge that Angel was a vampire. Willow had told her the story but was still unconvinced as far as she was concerned a vampire was a vampire, But he had saved her life on more than one occasion, He was still mourning Buffy and took his anger out on the un-dead population in-general. Which Flick didn’t mind it meant fewer vampires for her!

Xander’s military knowledge and Stephanie’s policing knowledge allowed them to organize the student body in to some semblance of a fighting force which had been a miracle in it’s self.  If it hadn’t been for the revelation at the prom, When a very shy boy called Jonathan had on behalf of the school awarded the class protector award to Buffy posthumously willow had be the one to collect it.  That they had realized that people knew what went on.
 
Part 2/% : Slayerettes

“Are you sure there’s nothing else” Flick said as she stood at the door,
holding the handle

“Yes I’ll be fine,” Willow said

“Sure?” Flick asked

“Yes, sure,”

“Sure? Your sure?” Flick asked again with hint of amusement

“Yes now go, patrol” Willow answered giving her a look

Willow waved her good by, as flick shut the door. Willow sighed and sunk back into the sofa. Smiling as she remembered the events of the night. After the party Henry had driven them all home. He had a land rover and was very different from Giles, kind of a mixture of Giles and Wesley. She missed Giles allot as much as she missed Buffy, she even missed Wesley. She had always known that someday Buffy would die, but she had never excepted it in her heart. She had also expected that she would die in a blaze of glory saving the world. Not dyeing from a bump on the head.

Giles death had been hard, the fact that Joyce had turned him into a vampire. Made it all the harder to accept, everybody knew that it had been Anna who had turned Joyce.  Why was lost on them.

Flick was no Buffy that was for sure.  Flick had been raised to be a slayer okay by a slightly unconventional watcher.  Who had allowed her to go to school and stay with her mum, So understood the importance of her work and it always came first but somehow curricular gymnastics and always came up with A’s.   Willow was amazed at how protective of them she was only after knowing them for a short while no one was to walk home alone.

Willow laughed at the memory of Flick when she had been asked if she would be on the cheerleading team, it was apparently the greatest insult she had been mortified.  “You’ve got to be kidding me!?” said with a crisp English accent that she was trying so hard to loose with amusing results

Willow’s smile faded as her eyes came to rest on a photo Oz.  She took a deep breath refusing to cry again, it had been three months now she was beginning to move on.  Everyone had flung them selves into research on the mayor after Buffy’s death.  The two groups had really come together they had both lost so much but they were all putting there lived back together and moving on.  Willow picked up the photo brushing her fingers over the image and remembered something good.  Sarah had said that that was what she had done when her father died every time she saw something that reminded her of him she would remember something good about it that way she would never forget and would be surrounded by happy memory’s.

She was really beginning to like Sarah. Buffy had been her best friend brought her out of her shell and for that she would be forever great full, but she had never really matched her intellectual level, the only one that had been able to do that was Giles.  Sarah was like Giles and Buffy all rolled into one, the phone ringing interrupted her reverie.

“Hey Wills” came the familiar voice of her long time friend

“Hey Xand” she responded

“Just calling to say I got home safe and sound”

“Now I know you’ve been spending to much time with Henry” Willow said sitting down on the sofa.  She settled her self down for one of their long conversations.

 
Part 4/% Slayerettes New York Branch

Stephanie was on line with Katie due to the trans-continental time difference late at night was the only time that Katie could get on line with out her parents catching her, her parents blamed Stephanie and Sarah for Juniors death.  Katie knew that it had had nothing do with them it was vampires her parents answer to that was counciling, they just wouldn’t accept truth.  So she kept in contact with them all via late night chats.
“Hey I heard that you saved the world”

“I know but Anna’s still out there, Sarah’s not going to get any better till she’s gone”

“Sarah’s not going to get any better period”

“I know that but it would improve the situation”

“I’m sure Flick or may be even that Angle will solve said problem”

“I see your spelling has not improved.  I doubt that Angel will be hanging around, after the graduation she basically said that if I see you again it will be Vampire vs Vampire Slayer”

“Well yes I can see her point”

“Pun Pun”

“Ha! Ha! But hasn’t he helped out in the past and the Flicks predecessor trusted him”

“Oh! More than trusted you’ve heard the tale right”

“Yeah! Willow filled me in”

“Okay this vamp is different to other vamps because he has a soul, Anna had a soul and was evil long before she became a vampire, I just don’t trust further than I could through him,”

“Which wouldn’t be very far”

“HEY!!”

“Sorry you walked into that one”

“Anyway I would be happier if he was out of the equation.  There’s enough to deal with, with Anna”

“Hey! You never know Flick might run into her one night on patrol and Anna’ll trip onto the stake, problem solved”

“Ever the Optimist”

“Ever the Pessimist”

“Sarah’s got a lot left in her she won’t be dying anytime soon”

“But for how long is she going to be in charge of her faculties, we all know to well what the possible outcome could be.  Yeah she’s going to live a good few years yet but at what quality of life”

“Sarah’s a fighter she’ll fight it until the bitter end.  She’ll never take her sisters route.  She has as much in common with a vampire as Gnat with a Cobra.”

“Your right”

“AHHHHHHHHHHH! I think I hear someone I’d better be going!”
 
Part 4/% Sarah

Sarah rearranged the curtains ensuring that there were no cracks. Even thought her window had a heavy shutter that didn’t let any light in, the curtains were more for show. Sarah looked around her room allot of work had gone into it. It was bright and cheerful; Stephanie had surprised her with it when they had moved in. She had said that if she couldn’t go outside she would bring the outside in. The ceiling was divided diagonally in half. One side was panted sky blue with clouds reaching down to the picture rail, the other half midnight blue with stars and the moon. The wall opposite her bed had a mural of a sunset surrounded by trees. The remaining three walls were painted a light peach, but covered in shelves stacked with books and other junk. Sarah had a state of the art computer and entertainment centre, which occupied any of the remaining space.

Pace, pace, pace, Sarah was just about to ware a hole in her carpet, she just couldn’t settle. She had tossed and turned so much that she had to get up and remake the bed, which she had done twice. Sarah had this feeling deep down in her gut that something was wrong. She had been restless all evening it grown worse when Flick had declined her offer to accompany her on patrol.

Maybe it was a twin thing but she had always known when Anna was in trouble. Even when they were kids she would know if Anna had hurt her self. Nowadays it was when Anna was up to no good. It always amazed her that they came from they same place, they shared the same genetic make up. That didn’t change despite the fact that Anna was now a vampire she had been evil before she was ever a vampire did that mean that it was innate. Was it inside of her or was it that Anna was evil so she was good. Was that why she felt such rage towards her twin. When the came together the rules ended. It was how she had got her black eye. She had taken it apon her self to deal with Anna. No one had dared question her. Except Angel he was unusual she had only just recently discovered that he was a vampire, a vampire with a soul. She didn’t know what to think about that. Anna had had a soul but she had still been evil. He had saved her life and tried to catch Anna.

Sarah lay back on her bed staring up and the ceiling letting her mind wander trying to come up with the answers but only drifted off to sleep
 
Part 5/% : The Slayers

Anna was furious over half her men were gone they had either been killed by the slayer, her friends or the sun. She was pacing one of her best dress’ was ruined okay she healed fast but she didn’t like having to heal in the first place. That annoying vampire Angel had chased her through the tunnels for hours, until finally she lost him. Faith entered the room quietly her bruises were fading also, she would be all healed by the morning.

“The boy’s herd that you were unhappy”

“Humph” Anna said flouncing down on the bed “They have a surprise”
Anna’s face lit up “For me”

“I don’t know what it is either. They just told me to come in and tell you”

Anna pushed her self up on the bed and motioned for Faith to sit next to her. “I’m sorry about the mayor he showed real promise. I’ll make it up to you but for now let’s enjoy the surprise”

The thick red curtains drew back to reveal Buffy who was sleeping curled up into a fetal position on the floor. She didn’t wake as the door to her cell was opened and three men entered. Two of them were twins Anna delighted in making twin vampires she had four sets. The other was one of her more powerful vampires he kept everyone in line for her and made sure everything ran smoothly. Anna would kill him later but this looked promising. He knelt down behind Buffy and began to stroke her hair Buffy smiled and snuggled into the touch. Mike looked up at Anna as he continued to stroke Buffy’s hair she began to mumble “Ummm Angel” The moment the word escaped her lips he fixed his hands around her neck and began to squeeze, her eyes sprung open. Mike moved to straddle her hips forcing her on to her back. Buffy’s hand flew up to her neck and began to grapple with the hands around her throat

<Maybe they were finally going to kill her? Had the Mayor succeeded and ascended? Her purpose served, but at least she would be with her mom, Giles and Angel>

But before blackness could ensue the hands were lifted from her throat. Before she could breath in the much-needed air cold lips touched hers in punishing kiss. Forcing his tongue inside her mouth. She tried to push him a way but he grabbed her hands pinning them beside her but let up before she passed out. The two twins took an arm each pinning then out to the side. Giving him free range.

“Bastard” Buffy gasped

“Nasty words slayer” he said placing his hand on her breasts and squeezing them

“Get of me you son of a bitch” Buffy yelled trying to throw him of f bucking her hips

“Ooooh! Slayer do it again,” he said with a leer

Buffy stopped wriggling and concentrated on freeing her arms to no avail as Mike began to undo her blouse.

“Get the fuck off me”

“Fuck! Slayer?” Mike questioned and paused “I think I’ll do just that” he said as he vamped out

“Oh god” Buffy gasped and began to wriggle furiously he moved back placing himself squarely on her hips stopping their movement. He leaned foreword slipping his hands under the cotton of her bra dipping his head to between them and biting them open. He began to roughly massage them bringing his mouth to her neck sucking on her pulse point. Nipping it slightly lapping at the droplets of blood forming.

<This is not happening, this can’t be happening> Buffy thought franticly turning her head to the side looking at the window, the curtain was drawn back Anna was sitting on the bed with Faith sitting next to her. Anna was grinning and watching intensely <Their watching Bitch I cant let this happen> Anna looked straight at Buffy and vamped out. Buffy screamed. Faith was transfixed.

“That’s it” Mike said lifting his head up grinning down at her Buffy spat at him “You bastard”

“I think were going to have to come up with a new use for that mouth,” he said getting up. The twins let go of her arms and stood back. Buffy was on her feet in an instant she lunged at Mike. But backhanded her sending her sprawling to the floor.

“On your knee’s Slayer”

“Never”

“Oh you will,” he said kicking her in the ribs and then again in the stomach. The twins again taking an arm each forced them behind her back pulling her to her knees.

“Open your mouth”

Buffy shook her head he grabbed a fist full of hair yanking her head back. “Don’t even think of biting down, You know I won’t kill you nobody will but I can tuck you every waking hour until you die of old age. A wrinkly old whore” Mike warned yanking her head back even further. Buffy’s mouth fell open. Tears streaming down her face, tears of humiliation, tear and understanding she was never going to get out of this.

Mike undid his zipper and treed his swollen erection thrusting it into her open mouth Mike’s hands tightened in her hair and as he thrust into her hot mouth, Buffy gagged, drawing her head back, her mouth instinctively sucking at his hard flesh. Mike continued to hold Buffy by the hair. Her momentary balking passed quickly he began to thrust into her mouth. Taking her head between his hands, he began to pump hard, forcing gagging gasps from her as she fought for air. He came yelling as he spilled his semen down her throat. She choked and spluttered but swallowed almost all of his emission.

“Good girl but next don’t spill any” he said as he removed his now flaccid cock and let go of her hair. Buffy’s head dropped staring blankly at the floor they were going to do this again. He grabbed her by the chin forcing her face upwards looking straight into her eyes. “I enjoyed that how about you” Buffy didn’t answer

“Maybe next time we’ll have more fun,” Mike said as he kissed her.

Buffy heard the door being opened and was on her feet and dashed for the door. Landing a roundhouse kick to mikes groin and punching the one of the twin’s in the face the second twin tried to grab her but she was out the door only to be met by four other vampires. She had no weapons she was weak from lack of food and sleep she didn’t stand a chance but she was not going down with out a fight.

She kicked out at the first vampire and sent him flying in to the second. One tried to come up from behind but she shoved her fist in his face. But fy proceeded to run down the corridor followed by a very angry Mike. She rounded the corner and ran straight in to two more vampires with as swift kick to the left one went flying and a punch to the second. One corridor lead to another and another. Buffy was becoming hopelessly lost. Thinking she had lost them she slowed to a brusque walk. Trying to figure out where she was she walked down a dimly lit corridor at the end was a stair well there was as shaft of light coming down from above.

Buffy began to climb the stairs. She was actually tired and out of breath. When she reached the top the shaft of light came from a poorly boarded up sky light. Butfy was intent apon her task balancing on the banisters she could reach up and pull the board off. Determined to pull it of and get to freedom she had been held captive for over three months. Though Anna had said that thy all thought that she was dead an had moved on with there lives the new slayer filling her shoes.


Flick wandered through the graveyard aimlessly hoping to bump into vampire they always turned up when she was not looking. <Speak of the devil> Angel was not but hundred yards in front of her. She promptly spun on her heals and walked in the opposite direction she didn’t have the patience for Sir Mopeallot. That was something that was not as fun in the states Robot Wars they took it all too seriously and had no sense of humor about it.

Flick sighed “Why couldn’t the Hellmouth be in England!?” Where it was a little colder, and well a little less sunny.  You would have thought that; who ever decided where the Hellmouth would be would have a little more common-sense, than to get vampires to congregate in a place where sun hardly ever stopped shining.  Where as in England to see the sun was a miracle. Maybe vampires just didn’t like getting wet. Flick smiled she wouldn’t wish the Hellmouth on anyone.


Buffy was so intent apon her task that she didn’t notice mike coming up from behind he put his hands on her waist and shook her making her think that she was falling but catching her before she did so. A Scream escaped her lips.


Flick sat down on the top of the hill behind Sunnydale. There was a fantastic view from up there. The sky was crystal clear and she could see all the stars that were made. She began to tick each constellation ott naming then as she went Ursa Major, Ursa Minor, Orion, and the W-shaped one that she couldn’t remember the name of. Flick then looked at the star her mum had named for her. Her mum said before she had left for Sunnydale
that it she looked at it she was would be with her. A chill wind came out of nowhere catching her by surprise making her shiver. It was not the chill of the wind that made her shiver but the dyeing echoes of a scream, Innocence being swallowed up by evil. Flick could never get used to the sound, she know that this was someone she could not save they were just too far of f. Flick set of f back to town with a heavy heart.


One of his huge arms slipped around her thin waist, Buffy had lost a lot of weight in the last few months. His arm completely encompassed it. He slipped his other arm around her neck, squeezing just enough to stop her wriggling but not to much to cut of her air flow.

“And where do you think you are going”

Buffy didn’t answer she just renewed her wriggling trying to flip him over her but this just made him tighten is grip. The stairwell was filled with the sound of footsteps on the stairs the loud resonant click of heals on concrete.

“Did you think that you could escape me?” Anna snapped, walking up to But fy. “You will never leave here, only in a box.” She said bringing her hands out from behind her back she was holding a brown medicine bottle and a cloth. “Chloroform” she said as she poured some on to the cloth and clamped it over Buffys nose and mouth. She struggled but soon the darkness claimed her.


The sky was pinking slightly to the east.  Flick had never appreciated the beauty of the sunrise until she moved to Sunnydale. Light triumphing over darkness. It made her feel like she could win after all. Flick turned the corner to the street where she lived, welcoming the idea of a hot shower, food and then bed. One of the things she did like about being the slayer was she could eat practically anything and still not put on any weight. Being a confirmed chocoholic this was good news.


Buffy’s head throbbed, pounding in time to her heart. Her hands were raised above her cuffed to a metal loop in the floor. <that wasn’t there before> She was back in the cold featureless room she had been it for the last three months. Lying on her back with Mike straddling her his weight pinning her to the floor “Now slayer time to learn a lesson in obedience”

“Fuck you”

“No! you”

Buffy squirmed under him trying to tree her arms. Bucking her hips to try and throw him of f but to no avail.

“Your just making this all the more fun” Mike said his hands roaming her body. His hand slipping into the waistband of her skirt, cupping her over her panties.

Buffy began to kick; he just grinned and moved down until he as kneeling between her legs. She hunched her legs up until her knees were up round her cheats than with all the force she could muster she planted them on mikes chest and kicked sending him flying backwards he slammed into the wall. He was soon on his feet “You’ll pay for that bitch”

The twins who had been standing out of her line of sight grabbed a leg each wrenching them apart, holding them fast. Mikes loomed over her as he slowly began to unzip his jeans, releasing his swollen erection. Buffy couldn’t help but gasp.

“Soon enough, slayer!” Mike said with evil smirk

He reached down grabbing her skirt and yanking it upwards tearing the flimsy fabric. He then covered her with his length. His hand every where at once. His lips met hers in a punishing kiss he began to nip at her lip drawing blood.

He rubbed his erection along her cotton-covered mound. Buffy decided to be somewhere else she closed her eyes as her mind went blank as she shut down.

His hand slipped down over her panties, and he ripped upwards, tearing the fabric over her skin, she returned with a shattering jolt her eyes flew open to meet his. She bit back a cry of pain. He would not let him have the pleasure of hearing her scream. Or those watching.

“Don’t close your eyes, look at me” he said as bore into her with a penetrating demonic stare

The ripping penetration caught her totally unaware. He slammed his cock into her dry channel, making her whimper in pain. Smashing tender nerves and ripping tissue, forcing unimaginable torture. She had broken bones, dislocated joins she had even died, She thought that she knew pain but this, this was beyond. He was absolutely merciless as he pounded into her, every shove ramming deeper and deeper. The cold metal floor was unyielding as he drove her into it. She bit down on her tongue to stop screams, but with in seconds she was swallowing her own blood. She was at his complete mercy.

He dipped his head and began to nuzzle her neck almost tenderly sucking and licking her pulse points. He then brought his mouth back to hers forcing her lips apart with his tongue, he began to suck on her bleeding tongue. His thrusts increased in momentum, pounding her relentlessly into the cold floor. With one last brutal thrust he came. Buffy couldn’t contain it she screamed and couldn’t stop screaming

 
Part 6/% Angel

He knew the grave was there.  

Stone…cold and hard.  It couldn’t talk back to him, couldn’t replace what he had lost.  What was the point.

Buffy had always said it was to remind them of those departed, where they where buried, though what significance that was Angel wasn’t really sure, dead was dead.  What could possibly replace life ?

It was always…Buffy had said…Buffy did…Buffy wanted.   Past tense.  Past.  In the past.  How was he supposed to live in the present when he knew Buffy only existed in the past ?

He walked through the graveyard.  Felt the familiar stirrings in the soil that he recognised as being from one of his kind.  The ones that had caused most of the graves in the first place.

Vampires.

He let his hand drag from one grave stone to the next, feeling the grainy material rub against his fingers, the scent of death that hung heavily in the air did nothing to alleviate his pain.

How many people had died that he had known ?

A lot.  More than he cared to remember, he being the cause of a good percentage of that amount.  

But somehow this one human being.  This slayer.  Had found her way into a heart burdened by a soul full of remorse and guilt.  He had never believed he would
