Spike

 

Angel was waiting for us in the drive way, we got out of the car and approached the door.  Buffy knocked at the door and it was soon opened by a tall man with glasses. 

“Hey Buffy, who are your new friends” He asked.

“This is Edward and Alice” she said gesturing to each of us.

“They are here about Spike.” She said as she walked in the door, her friends following behind her.  She turned back to Giles “Giles you have to invite them in they are both vampires”

Giles turned and looked at Buffy “Are you sure they can be trusted?” he asked.

“Giles we are not here to hurt anyone, well accept Spike that is” I said.

“Oh I see, well please do come in” he said stepping away from the door.

We walked in and followed everyone to the living room.  We all sat down and I began explaining why we were looking for Spike.

“I’m in love with a human, her name is Bella.  She’s pregnant with my child”

“Pregnant!” Angel said.  “But how is that possible?” he asked shocked by what I had just told them.

“I never knew it was possible myself, until it happened.  But that’s not why we are here” I said.  “Please let me continue”

“Now I left Bella because I didn’t want to hurt her, because I don’t think she belongs in my world.  I started seeing this girl named Liz, she’s a vampire.  I don’t want to hurt anyone, but I fear if I leave Liz it will hurt her.  So the only thing I could think to do is kill the person who turned Liz, so she can become human again and live a happy life.  I talked to her about it and asked her who turned her, she told me his name and where I might find him, and now here we are.” I said.

“Wow that’s quite a story” Giles replied.

I looked at Alice and she nodded her head.  I could read everyone’s thoughts and I knew they were going to help us.

“I’d like to thank you all in advance for your help” I said.

“And how do you know we are going to help you?” Giles retorted.

I pointed to my temple.  “He can read your thoughts Giles” Angel quickly said.

“Read my thoughts! What do you mean?” Giles said all confused.

“It’s a gift that I got upon being changed.  I can read thoughts and Alice can see the future, she can only see when decisions have been made, but they can change”

“I pitty you Edward, I was able to read thoughts for 24 hours and I’m sure glad I can’t anymore.  It was excruciating” Buffy flinched as she said this.

“Don’t pitty me Buffy, I have learned to control it.  I can block out thoughts.”

“Anyways, where can we find this Spike?” I asked.

“Let us help you” Buffy said.

“Thanks Buffy, any help would be appreciated” I said.

“Alright let’s grab some weapons, and off to the cemetery we go” Buffy said going to a chest in the corner.  She opened the chest and pulled a cross bow, some stakes.  She handed the cross bow to me.  “I’m sure you’re going to want to be the one to kill him” she said smiling at me.

We left Giles’s place and head towards the cemetery.  Alice and I chatted quietly on our way there; we were planning how to take care of Spike.

We arrived at the cemetery and Buffy took us to a mausoleum.  “Well here we are; this is where he lives” She said.

I looked at Alice.  “What do you see Alice?” I asked.

“There’s a woman with him, she’s wearing red and is also a vampire” she replied.

“Drusilla” Angel spat.

“Is there any other way out of here?” I asked.

“Yes, there’s a tunnel beneath the mausoleum” Angel said turning to me.

I looked at Angel.  “Could you go make sure they can’t leave that way?” I said winking at him.

“Sure thing Edward gotta love a pincher attack” he said chuckling.

I walked to the door and opened it slowly, it screeched loudly.  There was no one inside; they must’ve gone into the tunnel.  Buffy walked over and jumped into the hole.  We followed right behind her.

“Hello Spike” Buffy said.

He turned around instantly.

“Buffy” He hissed.

“Awe come on Spike I thought you’d like to play with me and my new friends” she gestured towards us.

I tensed up waiting, listening to his thoughts.  “No sense in running Spike, you will not be able to evade us.” I snickered.

“Oh I’m so sorry where are my manners, I forgot to introduce my new friends.  This is Edward and Alice, and guess what Spike they’ve come a long way just to kill you”

I heard a hiss coming from the shadows.  “What makes you think they can do what you have failed to do many times”

“My pet does have a point Buffy.  What makes you think they can do what you cannot?  You are the Slayer.” Spike spat.

“Because they have us to help” Spike turned around.

“Angelus”

“It’s Angel Spike, and it would be wise of you to remember that”

I raised the crossbow and pointed it at Spike’s heart.

“You think I’m going to let you kill me with ease lad?” Spike said turning to me.

“I really don’t need this crossbow Spike; I could kill you with my bare hands.” I said glaring at him.

“Then put the crossbow down and let’s do this”

I looked at Alice, she nodded and I put the crossbow down at my feet.

Alice turned to Buffy “Buffy we have to keep them from escaping”

They all fanned out to block their means of escape.

“You’re not leaving here alive Spike” I said.

“That’s what you think lad”

He came at me and threw a punch; I grabbed his arm and flung him back.  He tried to come at me again and I was ready, I swung at him and connected with his jaw.

“Alice grab Drusilla” I hissed.

Drusilla had decided that she was gonna include herself in the fight, but I knew she was going to do it.  Alice swiftly grabbed Drusilla and threw her to the ground.

“Now Drusilla, let’s keep this fair” Alice said looking at Drusilla.

“Why are you here, and why do you want me dead?” he asked.

 “You want to know why we’re here, and why we are going to kill you?” I spat.

“If I’m going to die, I at least deserve to know why.” He replied.

“Elizabeth Evans” I hissed.

“What does she have to do with anything?” he asked.

“You turned her, and now I’m here to kill you, so she can live a normal life”

‘You’re here to kill me over some dame I turned in the 1900’s” he laughed.

“That’s right, she was an innocent young woman, and you took not only her life, but her parents too” I spat with venom.

“Now now, is there anything else I need to know” Spike asked.

“What’s there to know Spike?” I hissed.

“You know what I’m going to do before I do it, I don’t think that’s coincidence”

 “I know I’m at an unfair advantage” I laughed.

He turned and looked at Drusilla, that’s when I grabbed him and threw him to the ground.  All of a sudden there she was on my back; I threw her off with brute force, and she hit the wall hard.  Alice ran to my side and helped me pick up Spike.

“Any last words before your turned into dust” Buffy laughed.

“How did you know my every move?”  he asked me.

I pointed to my temple “Like I said I have an unfair advantage, I can read thoughts” I said and snapped his neck.   Alice finished off Drusilla, and we took both of their bodies and ripped them apart, started a fire and threw in the pieces.

I turned to Alice “What do you see now?” I asked.

“Nothing Edward” she replied.

“You can’t see Liz?”

“No, I can’t see her at all”

“Good that can only mean one thing, it worked”

I turned to Buffy “Thank you for everything, all of you”

“You’re welcome, one less Vamp in the town of Sunnydale is a good thing” she smiled.

“Alice we must go now.  I’ve gotta get back to Bella”

“Yes we better get going” Alice said turning to Buffy and handing her a piece of paper.  “You should come visit us sometime, the rest of the family would be honored to meet you”

“Washington eh, well maybe we’ll take you up on that offer sometime” Buffy replied.

We said our goodbyes and returned to the hotel.  Alice went in and paid for the room while I got the car started.  We had finished what we came to do and now it was time to go home. 

I drove swiftly back to the airport.  We returned the car to the rental place and bought our tickets home.  The plane ride back seemed a lot shorter and we were back in Forks in no time.
