 The Final Battle 1/3

 By NightHunter





 It had been a year since Buffy had given up being the Slayer.  She
 and her husband were now living in New York.  They moved there
 after the destruction of the Hellmouth in Sunnydale. Willow, who
 was still learning how to control the change into a Werewolf, had
 moved in with them at Buffy's insistence that she could help her
 defend the children if Spike ever returned.

 In a dark underground cavern Spike and Druscilla were planing the
 death of the Slayer.  Spike had found one of the spell books left
 when Willow had killed the witch.

 "Spike, miss Edith says that HE'S coming back!"

 "Who's coming back, love?"

 "Why, Roller Boy, who do you think she's talking about. Like they
 said in that old movie; 'I'm back!"

 Then as the shadows parted an all to familiar form emerged.

 "You, but I saw Xander shoot you with a crossbow."

 "Well Spike" replied Angel drawing his chair close to him "In over
 200 years I've learn a few things, now meet the down fall of the
 Slayer"

 From out of the shadows steps a demon which Spike can sense is
 old: older then any other that he had ever encountered. Power
 radiated from him in waves of evil.

 The stranger places his hand on Angels' shoulder "Soon, my son, this
 world will once again feel the power of the DRAGON."

 Watcher HQ, London, England 3:45 A.M., Monday

 John entered the control room where a network of computers keep
 track of all possible future Slayers. When alarms started going off he
 watched in horror as lights on the center board signaled the death of
 a possible Slayer.  In less then 2 minutes over 40 lights had
 vanished.

 The Home Of The 1st Watcher, London, England 3:50 A.M.
 Monday

 An old hand reaches out pressing a button that causes one of the
 walls to open the inside walls are lined with the old Watchers
 Journals. Another button is pushed and the old journals move aside
 to reveal a large view screen.  On the screen is the face of young
 watcher.

 "My Lord, forgive me for calling this early, but our satellite
 monitors are showing the deaths of over 75% of all possible Slayers.
 What do we do?"

 "First thing, call me Giles.  I always hated that title Lord. Second
 thing, place the whole Network on call and send everyone we have
 to locate and protect the other possible Slayers.  As of this date, I'm
 invoking code Black!"

 Watcher Heli-pad, London, England 4:00 A.M. Monday

 Giles boards WATCHER 1 (The most powerful Craft in the
 Watcher Fleet) carrying only one old book. The helicopter takes off.
 "Lord Giles, it'll take us about 6 hours to reach Watcher Control
 New York." Said the pilot.

 As Giles sleeps his dreams take him back to the day that a rebellious
 young girl came into his library.  He wanted to show her the way of
 the Slayer: instead, she showed him that in this new world all the
 rules were changing.  Then she threw all the rules out by bringing
 others into the Circle of the Watcher & Slayer.  A smile appeared
 on his face as he remembered the first two who would be come the
 core group. Something bigger and better than had ever been before.
 Alexander (Xander) Harris joked about everything to hide his fear,
 but when he was needed he was always there for Buffy.  He  became
 her lifeline, helping her cope with everything that had  happened.
 He became her rock of strength and his love for her  never wavered.
 Then there was Willow, shy little Willow. Who we Sometimes thought
 would break, but, time and time again she proved that we needed her.
She could use those blasted machines like no one else.  After these
 two, more would come, Cordilla, Oz,  Miss Calendar, and finally,
 Joyce Summers.

 "Sir, we've just got clearance to land.  And a car is waiting for you."

=09"Hello?" Mrs. Harris asked.
=09"Hi, Mrs. Harris, it=92s Buffy," Buffy spoke over the phone. After Mrs=
. Harris=0Adidn=92t say anything, she said, "Buffy Summers."
=09"Oh, yes," she said, remembering. "You=92re Xander=92s friend, right? =
He=92s not=0Ahere right now. In fact, I don=92t know where he is=85"
=09"I know. Willow still isn=92t feeling very well, so he and I are going=
 to stay=0Aat her house tonight and cheer her up."
=09"Why didn=92t Xander call himself?"
=09Buffy thought for a moment. "Well, um, he, uh, fell asleep. He was goi=
ng to=0Acall before, but Willow needed something, and he never got to cal=
l you. So=0Awhen he fell asleep I decided to call you so you wouldn=92t b=
e worried," she=0Arambled.
=09"Oh, that was very considerate of you. Well, tell Xander I love him an=
d that=0AI won=92t be home tomarrow morning to see him."
=09"Well, actually, we=92re kinda planning to stay with her until her fol=
ks come=0Aback from Pheonix in a few days."
=09"Alright then. Tell Willow that I wish her a speedy recovery. Thanks f=
or=0Acalling."
=09"No problem. Bye." Buffy hung up the phone. Whew, she sighed, covering=
 her=0Aface with her hands. How did I let him get into this? Better yet, =
she thought,=0Ahow am I going to get him out of this?
=09"Oh, boy," Willow cried from the computer. Everyone rushed over to whe=
re she=0Awas sitting.
=09"You found it, Willow?" Giles asked.
=09"No, not exactly," she replied, her foice choked with fear.
=09"Then what is is?" asked Buffy.
=09"=92Once someone enters Hell, they cannot come back unless someone pas=
ses the=0Atest and frees them. If he does not pass, then he will live a l=
ife of eternal=0Atorment, as well as all those who walk the earth.=92"
=09"So," Cordelia said, "what you=92re saying is if Xander doesn=92t pass=
 the tests=0Athan we all go to Hell? And there=92s no way to stop it."
=09All she could do was nod.
***
=09Xander pushed the vampire who had jumped on top of him off. Turning ar=
ound,=0Ahe saw that it was the vampire. He hit the vamp=92s jaw hard. Unf=
ased, the=0Avampire kicked his jaw, knocking Xander to the ground. Xander=
 kicked his=0Aankle, knocking him down as well. Both got up, and the vamp=
 threw Xander into=0Aa wall. It took Xander all his strength not to go un=
consious. The vamp quickly=0Apulled him up from the back and held him tig=
htly. As the vampire tried to bite=0Ahis neck, Xander snapped his head ba=
ck. Oh, man, that hurt, he thought as=0Atheir heads collided.
Seeing the vampire on the ground, Xander seized the opportunity and kicke=
d him=0Ain the stomach. As he looked up, Xander noticed that it was the v=
ampire that=0Ahad knocked the book case on Willow. In a fit of rage, he p=
icked him up and=0Ashoved him against the wall. His fist clenched, he num=
erously hit the vamp.=0AGrabbing a bottle of holy water, he shoved it dow=
n his throat. As the vampire=0Achoked on the steaming liquid, he grabbed =
a cross and smacked him across the=0Aface. Taking the knife from his coat=
, he hacked away at the vampire=92s throat=0Auntil it was beheaded.
=09Xander took a deep breath and closed his eyes as the vampire turned to=
 dust.=0AOpening his eyes, he saw Angel chained up against the wall. One =

=09"Where is he?" Cordelia cried, running into the library.
=09"Xander?" Giles asked.
=09"Where is he? I need to talk to him," Cordelia said.
=09Willow took a deep breath. "Um, you know the ritual that will bring ba=
ck=0AAngel from Hell?"
=09"Willow, I don=92t have time for your boring little chit-chat. I need =
to talk=0Ato my boyfriend. It=92s an emergeny! "
=09"Xander=92s in Hell," Willow blurted out.
=09"What?" Cordelia asked, her face full of shock, then anger. "I=92ll ki=
ll him!=0AHe went to Hell just to make Buffy happy =91cause he loves her?=
 I=92ll kill him."
=09"Cordelia," Giles said impatiently, "I think you are missing the point=
.=0AXander is in Hell, and he may never come back."
=09She slowly sat down in one of the chairs near the table. "He wasn=92t =
always=0Athe perfect boyfriend. I mean, he wasn=92t popular or cool or ha=
d a keen fashion=0Asense, but he was a good kisser. He never once cheated=
 on me, or pressured me=0Ato go further than I wanted to. We really cared=
 about each other. I love him."=0AFor the first time in her life, Willow =
saw Cordelia cry over a guy. "And I=0Anever got to tell him."
=09"It=92ll be alright," Giles comforted her. "There=92s still a chance t=
hat Xander=0Amay be able to come back and bring Angel along with him. If =
not, there must be=0Asome way to retrieve him."
=09"What?" everyone turned towards Buffy=92s shaky voice. "He went to Hel=
l just to=0Asave Angel?"
=09"Buffy," Giles asked, "are you-"
=09But Buffy ignored her. "I shouldn=92t have blown up at him like that. =
Maybe=0Athen he wouldn=92t have gone. I should be the one in Hell, not hi=
m. He, he=0Adoesn=92t deserve that punishment. He was doing what he could=
. Like how I=0Acouldn=92t stake Angel in the mall and prevent Ms. Calenda=
r=92s murder."
=09"You can=92t blame yourself," Willow said. "If anything it was my faul=
t. I=0Areally lost it after you left. I think I pushed him over the edge.=
"
=09"It doesn=92t matter who caused him to do this. We just need to find o=
ut how to=0Aget him back. Willow, I want you to go on the internet and fi=
nd what you can.=0ABuffy, call Xander=92s mother and make up an excuse wh=
y he won=92t be home for the=0Anext few days. Cordelia," she looked up at=
 him, and he realized she would be=0Ano help, "um, cheer up."
***
=09Suddenly, Xander found himself in the graveyard. Looking down, he saw =
a fresh=0Agrave. "Willow Rosenberg, 1981-1998," it read.
=09"No," cried Xander. "Willow! You, you can=92t leave me. You=92re my be=
st friend.=0AI can=92t live without you." Tears started flowing from his =
eyes. "Will, you=0Ahave to be alive. I need you, not just to help me pass=
 trig and talk on the=0Aphone to, but=85" He took a deep breath. "I love =
you."
=09As he buried his face in his hands, he heard a voice. "I love you, too=
,"=0AWillow hissed in vampire form.
=09"Willow?" He looked up and saw her in her vampire form. "Ohmygod," he=
=0Amuttered. "This can=92t be you."
=09"Why not? Because now you love me? I loved you for years, and you didn=
=92t even=0Arealize it. But now you finally have. Well, we can finally be=
 together."
=09"What? We can never be together. You=92re a=85"
=09"Vampire, lonely one, undead American. Yes, I know. And it=92s wonderf=
ul. Now=0AI=92m not some meak little girl who has to depend on her friend=
s to protect her=0Afrom the big, bad demons. Now, I=92m one of them. Oh, =
Xander, how do you feel=0Aabout us being together? To have what we never =
got to have. Wouldn=92t that have=0Abeen wonderful?"
=09"Will, you were my best friend, nothing more. I love you as my best fr=
iend. I=0Adidn=92t want anything to change that. Even if you were human, =
we couldn=92t be=0Atogether."
=09"But we will. For an eternity."
=09She grabbed him, pushing his head to one side. Slowly, she lowered her=
 fangs.=0AXander easily pushed her off of him, grabbing a stake. "Will, p=
lease, don=92t=0Amake me do this."
=09"You can=92t stake me. I=92m your best friend. You don=92t have the co=
urage to do=0Ait."
=09"Willow," he said, louder, "I=92m warning you. If you leave Sunnydale =
and never=0Areturn, I won=92t have to do this."
=09"Come on, Xander," she laughed. "We both know that you won=92t stake m=
e, that=0Ayou love me. Plus, even if you tried, I know have ten times the=
 strength I=0Ahad. So just try."
=09"I=92m sorry, Willow," he whispered. Quickly, he grabbed a bottle of h=
oly water=0Afrom his jacket and opened the lid. He cringed as the liquid =
hit her face and=0Ashe fell to the ground. He seized the moment to grab h=
is stake and stick it=0Athrough her back.
=09As fast as she could, she turned around and looked at him. "Xander?" s=
he=0Aasked before she turned to dust.
For a moment he just stood there. Finally, he started to cry. He had kill=
ed=0Athe one person he felt like he could talk to. He could depend on her=
 no matter=0Awhat, through the good times and the bad. No, he thought, re=

can=92t be in here with me.=0AAnd since when did Hell seem to be the Sunn=

Subject: BUFFYFIC: Libidinous 12/?

Title~ Libidinous  12/?
Author~ Shani
Notes~ in psychoanalytlic theories, the libido is the driving force behind all
human actions
Summary~  A Buffy/Angel story with a few twists.  Involves characters from
General Hospital, but yoiu donÆt have to watch GH to understand this fic.  I
did change a thing or two around for you GH fans
Disclaimer~  All characters of Buffy the Vampire Slayer belong to Joss
Whendon, Mutant Enemy Productions, Kuzui Enterprises, Sandollar Productions,
and 20th Century Fox.  ôForever Homeö belongs to Wally Kurth and can be found
on the General Hospital CD.  All characters of General hospital belong to ABC.

Chapter 12, Forever Home

< Sleep, baby sleep,
   While the world passes by
  I'll be the keeper
  of your dreams tonight
  I'll be your eyes
  until you can see.
  I'll be your voice
  until you can speak.
  In this land of strangers>

    Angel ignored the stares from the other people in the room.  He slowly walked
over to where Buffy lay.  He had no idea what had happened.  All he knew was
that Arcanus was no longer inside of him.  æIÆll get you out of there.Æ  He
promised silently.  He took a deep breath and released it slowly.
    ôWhat happened?ö  The question was directed to anyone that could answer it,
and apparently, no one could.

< I'll be the one
   to love and protect you,
  guide and respect you,
  In my arms you will be
  In my arms you will be
  forever home.>

    Giles stepped up next to Angel.  He had lost the woman that he loved, and he
wasnÆt going to let that happen to the man next to him.  For the first time,
it hit him that the man next to him was not the man that had killed Jenny.
Angel finally looked up at him.
    ôShe, she performed the binding ritual, to bind Arcanus to a blessed object
without risk of destroying you.  It, it knocked her unconscious...and then she
and the cross were surrounded in that globe of light.  We donÆt know what it
is.ö  Giles said.  ôIt electrified Xander when he tried to get to Buffy.
Before she was in there, we know that she had a faint pulse.ö  He finished.
    ôI have a pulse too.ö  Angel said.  They stared at him in disbelief.  ôI
donÆt understand it.  I donÆt know how my body could still be alive without
the demonÆs imortality, but IÆm breathing.ö  Angel turned to Buffy, æYou hear
that?  IÆm human, but IÆm not really alive without you.Æ

< Sleep, baby sleep,
   In an ocean of love
  No way of knowing
  What you're thinking of
  Close to the heart
  That's where you belong
  You're part of my spirit
  Part of my song
  First last and always>

    Nikolas could not believe this.  First she looses him.  Then, she gets him
back.  Then, she looses him.  then, he comes back and looses her.  This would
be all over for Nikolas in a day or two, but for Buffy and her friends it was
everyday life.  Everyday she puts her life at risk to save people that donÆt
even know that theyÆre in danger.  He sighed.  His uncle wouldnÆt let him
become very involved.  In a way Nik felt relieved, but he also felt helpless.
    ôAre you ok?ö  Nik asked Angel.  They hadnÆt really become friends, but they
got along.
    ôAs soon as sheÆs ok, IÆll be alright.ö
    Nik gave a nod and Angel turned away.  This was definately an expirience he
would never forget, it was something that he didnÆt want to forget.  He would
remember this and these people always.

< I'll be the one
   to love and protect you
  guide and respect you
  In my arms you will be
  In my arms you will be
  In my arms you will be
 In my arms you will be
  forever home>

    Giles forced himself into Watcher mode.  Buffy was like a daughter to him.
She was his Slayer.  She *is* his Slayer.  He had read in the Watcher diaries
that many Watchers avenge the death of their Slayers, then either choose to
provide as much information as possible to new Watchers...or commit suicide.
He liked top think that he would be able to go on, but sometimes even thought
was too much to bare.  He continued to flip through the book that he had been
reading.  He was chosen to protect her, and thatÆs what he planned to do.
    ôAngel?ö  They heard Buffy say.  ôAre...you told me that you were human...ö
They stared at her in disbelief.

< Have you come to show me
   what love's all about?
  To lift up my faith
  higher than doubt?
  In my arms you will be
  In my arms you will be
  In my arms you will be
  In my arms you will be
  forever home.
  Forever home.
  Forever home.
