"Hey, Buffy."
Buffy glanced over her shoulder, offering a smile as Xander
walked up behind her. "Hey," she replied, weaving her way through
the crowd on her way to the library. "S'up?"
The other teen grinned at her and shook his head. "New topic:
who was the creep from last night, and why wouldn't you talk about
him when you got back?"
"He's not a creep," Buffy said, her tone a bit defensive.
"He's an old friend."
"Sure," Xander said indulgently, before giving her a look that
let her know just how little he believed what she was saying. "Now
the truth. The guy walks in, kisses you like there's no tomorrow,
so what's the deal?"
Turning to look at the other teen, Buffy sighed and stopped
walking. Xander did the same, waiting expectantly. "He's a
_friend_," Buffy said, stressing the word. She sighed. "It's
complicated."
"So wait a sec." Xander held up a finger, then pointed at his
chest. "If I'm your friend, am I allowed to kiss you like that?" He
smiled slightly.
She grinned, picking up her walk again. "You wish," she
replied as Xander scrambled to catch up, "but I'd knock you flat."
"So," he said, "that would make him _more_ than a friend,
wouldn't it?"
"I guess," she replied. "He's more of the ex-boyfriend sort of
old friend."
"Ah-_hah_." A pause. "How ex?"
"Very ex."
"Good."
Buffy grinned slightly, then shook her head. "You can
interrogate him later, yourself," she said. "He's going to check in
with me some time today..." She trailed off as they entered the
library, and she saw the expression on Giles' face. Her Watcher
wasn't one prone to excessive over-reactions, so when she saw the
way he was poring over the Codex, and the troubled look in his
eyes, she immediately put aside the light mood she'd had while
speaking with Xander. For his part, the other teen fell silent.
"Something up, Giles?" she asked.
"Yes," Giles said quietly. Then he glanced up at her. "We have
something of a problem."
"That's generally the case when something's up," Xander said.
"I was called by the Network Coordinator, earlier this
morning," Giles said. "And since then, I've spoken with Mr. Zebuto-
- - Kendra's Watcher, if you recall-- and he recieved a similar
message."
"Coordinator? What?" Buffy shook her head. "Start over,
Giles," she said. "'Cause you're not making any sense right now."
Giles shook his head and moved back to the Codex.
Buffy followed him with a sigh. "Giles," she said quietly,
"what's going on?"
"The Coordinator," Giles said, straightening a bit, "is the
one who...runs the Watcher Network."
"Your boss?" Xander piped up.
"Effectively speaking."
"Which is the only way we ever speak around here," Xander
said. He forced his grin away when neither Giles nor Buffy returned
it, and sighed. "So, the big Coordinator Guy called you up. Wow,
cool, let's kiss his feet and move on. Next topic?" He shook his
head at the expressions the words earned him. "Or not."
With a sigh, Giles looked back at Buffy. "At any rate," he
said, "I was...given some rather disturbing news."
"Okay," Buffy said. "Not like we ever get anything else, but
what was it?"
"The Network," Giles began. "...is an extremely...how to put
this...farsighted organization. Thus the collections of prophecies
and such, to allow Watchers and Slayers to make the best descisions
possible when they need to determine what courses of action to
take." He swallowed, and Buffy began to get the distinct feeling
that something seriously off-the-wall was going on. "At any rate,"
Giles said, "they have been made aware of the case with yourself
and Kendra. And they have a rather unique perspective on the entire
situation."
"And that would be?"
"That because your death created a new Slayer, if you die
again, fate may decide to give a repeat performance."
Buffy frowned. "Excuse me?"
"In short," Giles said haltingly, "they feel that it might be
best for the fate of humanity as well as for the crusade against
the vampires and evil in general, if there were more than just two
Slayers."
"Hold _on_, whoa, back up," Xander broke in. "Now, I realize
I'm an idiot as far as these big world-saving things go, but are
you saying what I think you're saying?"
"I'm saying that they are very possibly going to set things up
so as to...permit a direct attack on Buffy's life."
The two teens stared at him in shocked silence. "_What_?!"
Buffy finally screeched.
"They-- I was told--" Giles shook his head. "They will, uh,
how to say this without giving you the wrong, the wrong
impression..."
"Wrong _impression_?!" Buffy yelled. "What the hell kind of
impression would be _right_?!" She shook her head. "I've been
fighting their fight now for two _years_ and now they want to
_kill_ me?!"
Giles took a breath and opened his mouth to speak. "Buffy--"
"Don't _Buffy_ me!" she yelled. "I give up two years and this
is those assholes are gonna repay me?!" Her eyes narrowed. "Wait a
sec," she said. "Why did you even tell me?" Then, derisively, "You
didn't honestly think I'd just go _along_ with it, did you?"
"Whoa," Xander said. "Buff, that's kind of harsh, don't you--"
"Shut up, Xander," Buffy snapped, glaring at Giles. "Come on,"
she directed her Watcher. "Did you think I was gonna just sit quiet
and let somebody kill me because they _say_ they'll bring me back?"
"Of course not," Giles replied, shaking his head. "Buffy,
please...calm down."
"I don't think so," she said.
"Buffy," Giles said, a little more force in his voice, "get a
hold of yourself." The Slayer glared at him defiantly, and he took
her by the shoulders to hold her still. "I am not," he said, "about
to let anyone kill you, is that understood?"
She nodded, despite the anger and resentment that was showing
through in her expression.
"Good," Giles said. He glanced over at Xander. "Xander," he
said, "would you please leave the two of us?"
Xander glanced from Buffy, then to the Watcher, then back.
"You gonna be okay?" he asked her.
She glared at Giles, then nodded to Xander. "Yeah," she said.
"_I'll_ be fine."
Giles sighed. "Mister Harris, if you please..." He nodded
toward the doorway.
"On my way," Xander said, walking out of the room.
"First of all," Giles said, "there was a young man named Pike
here to see you earlier. I don't want you to speak with him."
Buffy raised an eyebrow. "Why the hell not?" she asked. "He's
a friend, if they're going to try and kill me, I need all the
friends I can get, don't I?"
"Except that he may not be a friend any longer," Giles said
quietly. When he saw the stricken look that passed across her face,
he sighed. "Buffy," he said, "you must understand, he knows so much
about our procedure and--"
"He read Merrick's books," Buffy interrupted.
"There would have been none left to read within days," Giles
said quietly. "The Network clears out the belongings of dead
Watchers as soon as they recieve word of the death, to assure that
the materials won't fall into the wrong hands." He sighed. "I am
sorry, Buffy, but..."
"So you're saying Pike's going to try to kill me?" She shook
her head. "That's insane. He knows I could beat the crap out of him
in a fight, and he's just here to catch up on old times."
"Be that as it may," Giles said, "I don't want you speaking
with him unless there are others around you. Myself, Xander, or
Willow. Or Cordelia, I suppose." He tacked the last on, realizing
a split second later that Cordelia would most likely do more harm
than good if she were to try to defend the Slayer.
"But isn't that overreacting?" Buffy asked. "Just because he
shows up, doesn't mean he--" She took a deep breath, and Giles
noticed that it was slightly uneven.
He sighed. "Buffy," he said, "everything will be fine, so long
as you're careful and follow my instructions. For once."
"Easy for you to say," she muttered. "They're not gonna try to
kill _you_."
Giles shook his head. "Even if they did kill you," he said,
"they would do all in their power to bring you back to life. You're
a Slayer, Buffy, they're not--"
"Not _a_ Slayer," she broke in. "_The_ Slayer. I'm supposed to
be _the_ Slayer." She swallowed hard, and it was only then that
Giles realized she was close to tears. "You don't understand this
at all, do you! This isn't something I ever wanted to do, but I've
done it best I could for two _years_ now, partly 'cause I didn't
have a choice, but also because it's something _I_ can do, nobody
else! Merrick told me that I'm the Chosen One! You did too!" She
shook her head, taking a quick breath, then continued. "Chosen
_One_! One is not _plural_! Now, not only are they trying to kill
me...but..." She sighed, falling into a brief silence. "This is
something that makes me special, Giles. And now they're going to
try to take that away." A tear spilled over onto her cheek, tracing
a path down her smooth skin, blurring the mascara slightly. "It was
one thing with Kendra. That was an accident and nobody knew it
would happen and she stays outta my way anyway. This, though..."
The Slayer took a quick breath, obviously trying to keep herself
from letting more tears go. "This just isn't _fair_."
Giles sighed, shaking his head and drawing her into his arms,
almost surprised that she let him hold her. "I know," he murmured,
"and Buffy, you must believe me when I tell you, I would never let
them hurt you. And I'm going to fight this, best I can. I promise
you."
Not moving or trying to pull away from him, Buffy tensed
slightly, her body shaking harder as she began to cry in earnest.
Giles held her, shaking his head and rocking her slightly, and
trying to decide what on earth he was going to be able to do about
the mess that was quick developing around them all.

ôIt was the strangest thing,ö Buffy said to Willow on their way to the
library. ôI felt like some one was there, ya know, like watching me. I
thought it was a vamp or something evil, but I couldnÆt sense any type of
demon.ö
ôMaybe a regular old human was passing by,ö Willow suggested hopefully.
ôWill, when has it ever been a æregular old humanÆ?ö Buffy asked her friend.
ôAll right, you have a point, but there have been no prophecies and itÆs been
æslow slayingÆ I believe you called it...Anyway, IÆm sure it was nothing,ö
Will said, trying to ease her friendÆs mind as well as her own.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Angel had made it to his apartment before sun rise, barely. It looked the
same as the last time he saw it. But it felt so empty. The first thing he
did was put on the claddagh ring, the heart pointing towards him. He guessed
that he would have to talk to Buffy and know that she had forgiven him before
he could even begin to forgive himself. The only problem with that theory is
that he wasnÆt sure he could face Buffy, or how she would react. Did she feel
guilty too? æGodÆ he thought to himself. æWhat if she blames herself for
Angelus coming back.Æ He knew he would have to see her soon. Not only for
her sake, but for his as well.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Giles frowned. He had read the passage five times now, and each time it was
the same. This was bad. He stood and turned as the library doors swung open.
Buffy and Willow stopped their conversation as soon as they saw the look on
GilesÆ face.
ôSpill,ö Buffy said flatly. She knew that look. Something was up.
ôI-i have come upon a prophecy,ö Giles said.
ôOk, that helps,ö Buffy replied sarcastically.
Willow walked to the table where several books lay open. A dusty, old book
in the center of the pile caught her attention. She picked it up and read to
herself for a moment.
ôI think I recognize this, well something like it,ö Willow began catching
both Giles and BuffyÆs attention.
ôRecognize what?ö Xander said as he walked in the door, Cordelia on his arm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sitting on the couch, Angel tried desperately to remember why Angelus had
been so looking forward to today. Something was coming and he needed to know
what it was, so did Buffy.

Iris
Part 2
"Buffy"
Buffy lay on her bed, following the aftermath of her
final battle with Angel. She had physically fought
with Angelus so many times in the recent past, but
this "fight" was the hardest. The tears fell from
her eyes as she thought of all the times Angel was
there when she needed him. She tried to think of all
of the times he wasn't. But she couldn't. She was
unable to remember the horrible things that had happened
after she loved him so fully. So completely. After
she gave him her soul. She gave up so much for him,
and when it happened, when he changed because of
her love, she did not even know.
She knew, however, that her life was pretty much over.
Without Angel in it, she was as good as dead. But, it
didn't matter. Nothing mattered. And, nothing would
ever matter again. There was no possible way for their
love to survive. She's a human. A Vampire-Slaying
Human, sure, but, still a human. And, Angel. Well,
he's a Vampire. He is everything she hates. But, she
doesn't hate him. What she feels for him does not even
come close to hatred. In fact, it is the exact opposite.
æHe is the exact definition of what I want in my life.
I can't think of a reason to live without him.'
~~~And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now.~~~
She continued to think of the times he was there,
offering comfort. He would pull her into his strong
arms, and shield her against the world. They fought
side by side, teaching and learning from one another
over the months. She felt they had finally come to a
place where they trusted each other completely. Buffy
knew she would never feel the same for anyone else, ever.
He was her first and only true love. Nothing anyone
could say would ever change that.
Through all of the hard times of the past few months,
Buffy held onto the hope that her Angel would be returned
to her. She could block out all of the things that he
had done. She could erase all of the pain he had caused
her. In the time before he changed back to her Angel, it
was all she could think of to get her through. Especially
when he was at his worst. When he was watching her.
When he was taunting her. When he killed Jenny. When
he tried over and over to kill her. To kill Giles.
To kill Willow and Xander.
~~~And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
And sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight~~~
Buffy thought she would just hide away in her room
forever. She'd ever again see the light of day or
the darkness of night. She had ust spent the worst
night of her life telling Angel to leave her alone. To
never, ever bother her again. To never love her again.
And,he agreed. But, she didn't want that. She wanted
him in her life. She wanted to be able to run to him.
To hide away in his apartment, held in the safety of
his arms.
<NO! That's impossible! There is no way we can
ever again be together. I just can't take that
chance Angel!"
"Buffy! It's not impossible. We'll just be more
careful..."
"No! It's not going to work. It's just too hard
to see you and not be with you. Not kiss you?
I can't do it, Angel. I can't. And, you shouldn't
ask me to."
"I'm sorry, Buffy..."
"You're always sorry. But, there's nothing we can
do. Let's just end this, and keep our happy memories.
If we have any left," she lied cruelly.
"I have nothing but good memories of you..."
"Well, that's all you have.">
She remembered the cruelty in her voice. She remembered
the pain in his face. The confusion. It nearly broke
her resolve to leave him forever. And, it did break
her heart. She remembered turning her head, so she wouldn't
have to see the pleading in his eyes. It had taken
every ounce of strength she had to not run into his
arms, and tell him to forget it, that they would work
it out somehow.
She hid her head in her pillow, and cried like she
never had before.
~~~`And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive~~~
<OK, Buffy. We'll do it your way. I'll leave you
alone. You won't have to ever see me again."
He said, resigning himself to a life alone, without
her.
"Good," she had lowered her head so he wouldn't see
the tears in her eyes...
"I'll see you, Buffy." He waited for something,
anything from her. He turned and walked away.
She sank into the chair. æHe didn't want me. He
didn't fight for me,' She thought irrationally.
Depression had taken over her mind. What she
didn't see, as he got to the door, he turned and
looked at her. Trying to find the strength to
leave her forever.
She cried at the memory. She cried at her loss.
She couldn't seem to stop crying.
She lifted her head from the pillow, and through
bleary eyes, she looked at her door. She thought
she heard her mother, but didn't hear anything
else. She dropped her head back onto her pillow.
Some time had passed, and she wasn't sure how much.
She just didn't care. The tears never stopped.
She pulled herself off of her bed, and turned on
the radio. "Iris" by the Goo Goo Dolls was playing.
She wrapped her arms around herself, and stared into
her mirror. Her tears continued to fall. "Good bye
Angel. I love you."
~~~And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am~~~
