as some of you on this board know I'm trying to write a horror story novel. Well I have writer's block on the story so I started doing fanfiction to help me along. I started with this Buffy fanfic and i want you guy's honest opinion on how my writing has improved, and if you like the story at all.

keep in mind this is the prologue. Oh and the story is called the last slayer.

Prologue

L.A. 2023

The boom of a shotgun reverberated throughout the dark alley. The only light source was from the continuous flash from the shotgun. As the gunfire stopped a lone teenage girl emerged from the mouth of the alley.

She had shoulder length black hair, with red streaks in it, and she wore all black. As she strapped the shotgun to her back holster, she took off at a dead run. After a second what looked to be werewolves stepped out of the alley. The demons had thick grey fur all over their muscular bodies, and gleaming red eyes.


The leader and biggest of the pack of three wolves, stopped at the mouth of the alley. After a moment of sniffing he and the others ran in the direction the girl ran to.

***

'Come on Jesse pump those legs' the girl thought to herself. Hearing the Weres' behind her gave her the motivation she needed. Panting heavily she knew that she wouldn't be able to out run them. Ducking into a narrow alley, she dropped her shotgun and reached into her duster and pulled out an all silver sword.

One of the beasts broke from the pack and followed her down the alley, only to get stabbed in the leg. As the beast howled in pain it fell over. Before the monster had a chance to rise, she flicked her sword at it's head, ripping it's head off its shoulders.


Hurrying forward she was confronted by another one of the demons. The beast swung a shovel-sized paw at her. Her eyes widening, she back-pedalled from its suddenly apparent claws. “Oh just great!”

Sidestepping towards the wall, she pulled back when the creature struck, its claws scraping against the brick surface, sending blue sparks flying and the impact knocking the monster off-balance. Grinning slightly, Jesse lunged forward, thrusting the sword hilt-deep into the monster’s trunk-like throat.

Black viscera vomited out of the gaping wound, splattering against her face. The injured demon screeched as she dragged her sword out before it dropped face-first to the ground. Flipping over the demon’s corpse, she rushed to the next monster.

Only when she stepped out of the alley the other Werewolf was gone. Sensing a demonic presence behind her, she shot out a back heel kick that slammed into her would-be attackers stomach, the impact of the blow jarring her leg.

Jesse spun around to face the demon only to catch a backhander that sent her crashing into the wall. “Fuck!” shaking her head clear, she twisted round and thrust her sword at the beast only to see her attack blocked and her sword sent clattering to the ground.

“Oh this just gets better,” she groused as she ducked beneath a clawed attack. Thinking quickly she executed a back flip to put some space between her and her assailant before snatching up a near-by metal trash can lid. Her eyes widened when she attempted to use the lid as a makeshift shield only for the beast’s claws to rip through the metal like a knife through butter. “Oh crap!”

Instantly she changed her plan, adjusted her grip, and thrust the lid’s newly serrated edge through the creature’s throat. A grin parting her full lips, she watched as the thrashing monster dropped to the ground.

^^^here you go. I'll post more when I get more reviews. I have to know what I need to change in my writing, so I can improve and finish writing my book.

Chapter 1
Warehouse District : Downtown L.A.

With a sigh Jesse opened the door to her makeshift home, awaiting her mothers speech about being late. Not seeing her mother or father around in the almost pitch black room, she walked to the middle of the room, dropped her weapons and took a seat by the fire barrel.

"What took you so long?" A woman asked out of the darkness. Startled, Jesse jumped up and got into a fighting stance. Grinning the woman stepped out of the shadows and gave the girl a hug. The woman was very thin and pale. She had long flowing white hair (which she was to young to have) and was easily a few inches shorter than the girl.

"Jesus, mother you almost gave me a heart attack!" the girl shouted as she returned the hug.

The woman pushed her daughter back gently and gave her a stern look.

"Now why were you late?" she asked again.

"Jeez, Willow cut her some slack. She was probably attacked or something." A man said as he stepped out of the shadows and approached the two woman. He was about a whole foot taller than the two girls, had short brown hair and had an eyepatch over his left eye.

"Stop covering for her Xander." Willow said as she put on her 'resolve face'. Even after all these years he was powerless under her glare and he backed off.

"But mom I really was attacked!" Jesse put in before her parents could get into an argument.

"They were the last of the WolfBlades. See look..." she said as she lifted her sword. The black blood on the sword was still wet as it dripped to the floor. Letting out a breath Willow looked over at Jesse and then at Xander.

"I'm sorry you two." she said after a moment. "It's just the spell I'm about to cast is very important, and very powerful." 'Not to mention terrifying' she silently added.

"It's ok Wills. You know I'll alway's be there when you need me." Xander said as he put a reassuring hand on her shoulder. He understood how reluctant Willow was to doing spells. Since Sunnydale collasped she basically stopped with the magicks.

The last time she did a spell this powerful was when she activated all the slayers and when she almost destroyed the world. Xander shuddered at that last thought. Sensing what he was thinking, Willow pulled him into a hug and then kissed him full on the lips.

Jesse cleared her throat to get her parents attention. "Are we going to do this spell soon or do you two need some time alone." she said with a knowing smirk. Her parents pulled apart and glared at her.

***
A few hours later found the Harris clan in a large chalked out circle with a cauldron brewing. Willow was chanting something in a dead language as the three of them held hands.

"How long is this going to take mom." Jesse complained as she opened her eyes. Willow glared at her daughter before she replied.

"It'll only take a few more minutes." she said as she put something scaly into the cauldron. The substance she put in made a foul smell in the room that made Jesse and Xander scrunch there noses up in disgust.

Closing her eyes she began to concentrate, until she heard a loud moan. As she opened her eyes, everything seemed to happen in slow motion. The warehouse door collasped under constant pounding, admitting creatures into the room.

Before the stench of the reanimated corpses hit her nostrails, Xander stood and started blasting into the crowd of zombies. As he beckoned Willow to hurry with her spell, the zombies cleared a path. Out of the middle of the sea of zombies stood a figure of a woman. As she stepped into the light Xander stopped shooting. Because there in front of him stood Buffy. The First Evil.

***

The First Evil was pissed. That little bitch Jesse killed three of it's top general Werewolves. It didn't need one of it's minions to tell it that the wolves were dead. The First could feel it. Moments after there demise it used a spell to reanimate corpses.

As the walking corpses started there slow trek to where the girl had gone, The First followed. As they got to the warehouse they were immediately stopped by an invicible barrier. The First then stepped forward and ran it's hand down the barrier.

"Stupid girl. Do you really think this will stop me?" it snarled as it changed it's shape from a hulking demon, into Buffy Summers.

As it hit the barrier twice with it's now small fists, the invicible wall fell and her army of the dead marched on. As the zombies reached the warehouse door they started to wail and pound on the door. The First walked passed them and with one punch the warehouse door fell with a loud thump. The Zombies then walked passed her and started to file into the warehouse.

The noise of a shotgun blasting drowned out the wails of the dead. Stepping forward into the light, she saw Xander Harris, the one that see's, shooting away at her army. As he looked up and saw her he stopped shooting. Smiling the first in Buffy form walked forward.

"Hi Xand. Long time no see." she said nonchalantly as she walked toward him.

"No...." Xander croaked as he lifted the gun back up and started blasting at her. The First was hit full on with the incinerary bullets and flew up into the air, crashing into a heap not 15 feet away.

"FINISH THE SPELL NOW WILLOW!" Xander shouted as he started back shooting at the Zombies.

***

As soon as the zombies came into the room Jesse immediately put her coat on and got into a fighting stance. Any Zombie that would have the misfortune of crossing her path would be re-dead in seconds by the flick of her sword. At her father's shout she looked down at her mother only to see that her eyes were now black.

As Willow finished the spell a large silver vortex opened behind them. Opening her eyes Willow stood up and embraced her daughter.

"I'm sorry sweetie...." she said over the blasting of the shotgun. "But me and your father aren't going to be coming with you."

"But mom..." Jesse said, her eyes misting over with tears.

"But nothing Jesse!" Willow shouted. "You can do this." she continued in much more gentle tones. "Just remember the things I told you and remember that me and your father love you."

Before Jesse could argue a bag was thrown into her hands. Looking up she saw that her father had thrown it. "I love you Jesse now GO!" Xander screamed as a zombie got to close and bit down into his arm, sending blood gushing everywhere.

Before she could go and help, Willow used all of the strentgh that she could muster and pushed her daughter into the swirling vortex. The last thing Jesse saw before she fell was her father being held down on the floor by zombies and her mother on her knees crying out in pain.

***

As soon as the first got to her feet she saw a large swirling vortex and the girl Jesse going through it. Using all of her speed she ran towards it only for it to close in her face. With red eyes she turned and looked down at the still weeping Willow.

"Where was that portal going!" The First snarled as she dragged Willow to her feet.

"I'll rather die before I tell you." Willow shot back as she spit in the first's face. Wiping the spit off of it's face, The First smiled chillingly at Willow.

"Oh that can be arranged." she said as she lifted up her fist and hit Willow in the face. The last thing Willow heard before the fist impacted with her face was Xanders screams. And then nothing.

Chapter 2

Sitting up groggily, Jesse opened her eyes and found herself to be in a large warehouse.

"Mom, Dad." She called out hoping against hope that what just happened was all just a dream. To her dissappointment the echo of her own voice answered her back.

Putting the bag down, that she clutched tightly in her arms, she began to cry. 'I can't believe this is happening' she thought over and over in her mind as she began rocking back and forth. Moments later, after her tears subsided, she stood up with a grim look on her beautiful face.

"I want let there deaths be in vain!" she yelled as she looked up to the heavens.

Opening up the bag her father threw to her, she began doing inventory. The first thing she pulled out were a pair of wrist stake launchers, which she promptly put on. As she tested them she took out another item, which was a palm sized circular disk. Not really caring what it was she put it in her coat pocket. Maybe it'll come in handy later.

Looking back into the bag she saw that she had over twenty plasma grenades in the bag. 'Holy shit and dad threw this to me', she thought half bemused as her eyes widened theatrically. Zipping the bag back up she walked to the door to see where she was.

As she opened the door she saw that it was night time and it seemed real peaceful. 'Peaceful' she thought bitterly. My parents will never know peace. Hell with the way L.A. turned out no one will ever know peace. With that she ran out into the night in search of answers to where she was.

***
After twenty minutes of walking down the dark and disolate streets, Jesse came to the conclusion that she wasn't in L.A. anymore. Where were all the destroyed buildings and the pollution? She thought to herself.

Looking up at a sign she read it out loud. "Sunnydale. But that's impossible. Sunnydale was destroyed."

Just as she was walking past a gas station, a scream interrupted her reverie.

"Finally some action!" she muttered to herself as she took off at a run. As she neared a corner she saw a trio of men surrounding two women. As the light from an above street lamp shone on there faces, she saw that they were vampires. Dropping her bag she slowly approached them.

"Good evening." she said with a small smile.

"Piss off, Girlie!" the vamp snarled as he looked back at her. Jesse walks up to him and leans in to get a closer look at his face. The vamp growls at her and she leans back:

"Uhh, breath mint?" she quips.

The vamp throws the girl into some trashcans and swings at Jesse. Jesse blocks his punch, knocks him down, and spin kicks the vamp behind her. As the leader tries to get back up she kicks him in the face knocking him back down.

As she's distracted the other vamp tackles her to the ground, but she catapults him over her head and gets back up. Seeing two vamps charging her from opposite sides, she triggers the wrist stake launchers under her sleeves and stakes both at the same time. They dust.

The vampire leader comes up and hits her over the head with a trashcan, knocking Jesse to the ground.

"You shouldn’t have done that." she grounds out as she does a flip to get back on her feet.

She kicks the vamp in the stomach then throws him. The vamp spins in the air and lands on top of a car’s windshield cracking it.

The two girls watch on, looking scared. One girl is bleeding from a cut on her forehead.

"Oh, my god! They were…" one of the girls started but was cut off.

"What year is it?." Jesse asked with her back turned to the two girls.

"What?" the brunette girl asked.

"I said what year is it?" she asked again, still with her back turned to them. The girls exchange a look before answering.

"It's May 2003." The blonde answered as Jesse started to walk off.

"Thank you." the other girl said as she touched Jesse on the arm.

"Stay away from me."

The girls back off. Jesse stalks down the alley looking disgusted. Breaking a slat from a wooden crate she stakes the vamp still lying on the car’s hood without even looking. The girls watch her leave.

***

Sunnydale Vineyard: the same time Jesse goes back in time.

The First is sitting on a wine barrel in Buffy form as she talks to Caleb. In mid-sentence a wave a nausea hits her as she falls off the barrel and her eyes flash green. Immediately Caleb comes to her side and helps her to her feet. Then realization hit, Caleb just touched the first's arm.

Just as quickly as he touched her arm, his hand went straight through her. Stilling herself she sat back down on the wine barrel.

"What the hell is going on?" Caleb asked as he folded his arms over his chest. As the nausea went away the First looked up at him with a feral grin on her face.

"It seems that we have another player in town." she replied as she flashed away.

***

After two hours of gathering supplies and food (actually she stole them, but hey the shops were abandoned.) she made her way to revello drive. As a small child she always wondered why her father and mother always made her study a map of Sunnydale. I mean the place was destroyed. But now she figured out why, her parents planned this the whole time.

But did they really plan to come with me or did they know they were going to die? She thought bitterly. But now since I'm here, I can see them in the past. But how are they going to act towards me. Pushing down her trepidation, she knocked on the door of Buffy Summers house and glanced nervously at her feet.

After hearing some stumbling around in the background someone opened the door.

"Yes, can I help you?" Giles asked as he looked at the girl before him. As she recognized the voice she looked up at him with a grin.

"Grandpa?"

Chapter 3


"Grandpa!" The girl said as she dropped her bags and lunged at Giles. On reflex Giles caught the girl but wasn't ready to support her weight, so both of them fell to the ground.

"Good Lord..." Giles said as he sat up. The girl was still on top of him crying into his chest and hugging him tightly. As soon as the others heard the noise the potentials and Faith came piling into the room.

"What the hell is...." Faith started until she saw Giles on the the floor with a young girl. "Giles, what the hell is going on?" Faith asked. A young girl on top of Giles, just didn't seem right.
Giles shot Faith a deathly glare before he responded.

"Bloody hell Faith, how should I know. All I did was open the door and this girl jumps into my arms." Giles said obviously agitated.

Before anyone else could say anything, Willow and Xander walk through the front door. As soon as Xander saw Giles on the floor with the girl in his arms, a smile spread across his face. Oh great, more people to witness my humiliation, Giles thought.

"G-man you old dog you." Xander said with a chuckle, only for it to turn into a wheeze as Willow elbowed him in the stomach.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have come here." the girl said between sobs as she stood and ran out the door. As she grabbed her bag from the porch, she didn't notice the small silver necklace around her neck fall off.

"Wait!" Giles said as he got up and ran to the door. But when he got there the girl was already gone. As he was about to turn around a small gleam of light flashed on the ground. As he bent over to pick it up, he saw that it was a silver necklace.

Not just any silver necklace, but it was one Jenny Calendar gave him years ago. For a moment he thought that he had dropped it, but as he reached for his neck he found that it was still there.

-

Jesse ran and ran until she got back to the warehouse that the time vortex took her too. As soon as she opened the door she fell to the ground and started to cry.

"God I can't face them yet!" she said aloud as she brought her hands to her face. Especially not Grandpa, she thought as she tried to fight back the rest of her tears.

***

"So this girl calls you Grandpa, jumps into your arms, and now you want us to find her?" Xander asked as the core scooby gang sat at the kitchen table.

"Yes that's what happened." Giles conferred as he clutched the necklace in his hand.

"Giles I didn't know that you had children." Dawn said at her place at the table. 'Much less Grandchildren she added silently.

"That's just the thing, I don't have any children." Giles answered matter-o-factly.

"Then why do you want to find her so badly?" Robin asked.

"Because of this." Giles said as he held up the necklace for all to see."This necklace was given to me by Jenny before... she died. But when I went outside I saw it lying on the ground." Willow just shrugged before she asked.

"So you dropped some jewelry, what does that mean?"

"I'm still wearing the necklace that Jenny gave me, the girl dropped this one." Giles explained.

"I think we heard enough about that girl." Faith spoke up for the first time.

"But..."

"But nothing Giles, I'm the leader now and we need to concentrate on defeating Caleb. " Faith stated as all eyes fell to her. Giles glared at her but said nothing as they started to talk about what there next move against Caleb would be.

***
The next night

As Jesse put the finishing touches on her grappling hook/swingline gun ( Think Batman the animated series.) she heard a loud explosion. Stilling herself, she gathered a few of her weapons and took off like a shot in the direction of the disturbance.

***

Everything was going just fine for Faith and crew as they battled the bringers. But what was strange was that there were only a few of them and there didn't seem to be anything important at there base.

That was until Faith opened a box. As soon as she did she instantly regretted it.

"Get down!" Faith shouted as she closed the lid of the box and the bomb exploded. Before the potentials could move an inch, the blast wave of the bomb through them on opposite sides of the room.

"Is everybody o.k.?" Amanda asked as she came too. As she looked around she saw that most of the girls were getting up and that they were alright. Except she didn't see Faith. Standing up she walked over to the sewer pool and saw a body face down in it.

"Faith!" she said as she moved down into the water to get her out. "Somebody help me!" she shouted as a few potentials got in the water with her and helped her get Faith out.

"Come on guys let's get the hell out of here." VI said. A deep-throated menacing growl echoes through the tunnels from somewhere not-too-distant.
Looking up they saw a turak-han. Before anyone could move another one appeared and jumped down on another potential and started tearing her to pieces. The other one quickly joined in.

Seeing that the other girls were scared witless, Kennedy decided to take leadership. Taking a bringers axe from the wall she struck out at the nearest Turakhan. Only to be knocked down a moment after.

As the ancient vampire was about to deal the final blow, the sound of clapping stopped it. As one the potentials and the vampires looked up to see a girl dressed in all black, clapping her hands.

"So that's how you handle a potential?" she paused for effect. "Then let's see how you do against a real slayer." she said as she did a front flip and landed in front of the vampires.


As soon as she hit the ground she was a blur of action. Ducking under a clumsy left by one of the creatures, she kicked it in the stomach sending him into the wall. Sensing another demon behind her she did a back kick and a straight forward punch at the same time, to knock the one behind her back and to keep the one in front of her at bay.

As the one she had kicked stood up, she did a rainbow kick that made his neck snap. As it feel to the ground three more came into view.

"This just get's better and better." she muttered sarcasticly as she jumped into a fighting stance. As one of them advanced a chunk of the ceiling suddenly breaks free and crashes to the floor. The Turok-han turn around only to face Buffy as she drops down from above, her new bladed weapon held at the ready.

As the three vampires charge her, she spins, her moves almost ballet-like as the blade bites into their flesh. She decapitates one and stabs another through the heart with the pointed wooden end of the shaft. Both instantly disintegrate into ash. The third grabs her from behind but she flips up and over, then brings her blade around in an arc, slicing through its throat. As the dust dissipates, Buffy turns to Jesse who is smirking madly at her.

"Get the wounded. We’re leaving." Buffy said thinking the girl was just a potential.

"Are there more?" Kennedy asked Buffy as she stood beside Jesse.

"There’s always more. Let’s move." Buffy snapped as the girls ran off to collect there wounded.

***
Injured girls lie everywhere on the floor. Buffy, Anya, Dawn, Willow and the others help treat them with what limited supplies they have.

"Will, come here. She’s losing a lot of blood." Buffy said as she patted a wash cloth on a potentials forehead.

"Got it." Willow says as she begins to treat the girl.Buffy sees Giles and Xander carrying Faith in through the front door and runs over to them.

"The room upstairs is ready for her." she says nodding to the unconcious form of Faith.

"Good." Giles replies

"I hope we’re in time." Xander says with concern.

"Is she okay?" Amanda asked Giles. "Is she gonna be okay?" she then asked again, this time looking at Kennedy.

"I’m sure she’ll be fine." Kennedy says with a smile. "Right?" she asked looking at Buffy.
As they talk, Jesse walks out of the Kitchen with some medical supplies. She however doesn't go unnoticed.

"Careful!" Xander calls out to Giles as he almost dropped her.

"I'm sorry Xander." Giles said not taking his eyes off of Jesse. "Amanda... Kennedy, would you two please help Xander take Faith upstairs." At there nods, he handed Faith over to them and walked down the steps.

"Buffy we need to talk." Giles said in her ear. After explaining a little about what happened the day before, Buffy looked over at Jesse. Unknown to them Kennedy was eavesdropping on there conversation.

"So you don't think she's a potential Slayer?" Buffy asked. Before Giles could answer, Kennedy spoke.

"Actually she is a Slayer."

"What?" Buffy asked confused.

"Well before you came to rescue us Buffy..." she stopped as she thought back to a few hours ago. The girl was simply amazing. "...she killed a few Turok-han without even breaking a sweat. But then before she did all that she called herself a Slayer." Kennedy finished.

Buffy looked at Kennedy for a few seconds and then over at Jesse.

"Well then I think we need to have a few words with the new slayer in town." Buffy said as she began to walk over to where the girl in question was standing. Giles and Kennedy hot on her heels.

***

Jesse was just about to ask Willow if she needed any help with the wounded, until a hand touched her on the shoulder. Spinning around she saw Buffy, Giles, and Kennedy staring intently at her.

"We need to talk." Buffy said still holding her on the shoulder. Jesse nodded but then looked over at Kennedy.

"Ok, but just as long as it's you and Giles." she said as she handed Willow some bandages. Willow's and Jesse's eyes met for a moment. Something about the girl seemed familiar to Willow. Just as soon as it was there it was gone. Shrugging it off, she started back bandaging the girls up.
After a few minutes, Giles, Jesse, and Buffy finally find a quiet place to talk.

"So who are..." Buffy began, but was cut off.

"First things first. Where did you get this?" Giles asked as he held up the silver necklace that she dropped. Her hand immediately went to her neck. She took it away from him before she answered.

"I got it from you." she said as she began to put it around her neck.

"Don't lie to me!" Giles growled as he grabbed her rough around the arm.

"Giles, calm down!" Buffy shouted as she made her watcher release his hold. To her surprise the girl wasn't mad but it was like she expected him to act like that. After a moment Giles calmed himself and apologized.

"Now what do you mean, I gave you this?" Giles asked again in a much gentler tone. Jesse let out a breath and looked up at him and sighed.

"You gave that to me in the future. I'm from the future ok." she said already knowing he wouldn't believe her. And he didn't.

"The first has stooped to an all time low. Using a little child to do it's dirty work." Giles said as he grabbed a seat and sat down in front of Jesse.

"Let's hear her out first Giles." Buffy said as she to took a seat.

"I'm from the year 2023." she began." And in my time The First enslaves mankind and it's corporeal."

"Damnit so we don't beat the bad guy." Buffy said angrily.

"No you did. Only for a little while though." she explained. "In two days time you guys will beat the first and successfully close a hellmouth for good."

"A hellmouth?" Buffy asked.

"Yeah, there are three of them. One in sunnydale, New Mexico, and in Cleveland."

"You said that we defeated the First. So how does it come back? And why does it take so long for it to try to destroy the world in the future?" Giles asked.

"I'm getting to that part." Jesse said as she gave Giles a stern look. Which seemed to say 'I hate being interrupted'. Oddly enough that look seemed familiar to him.

"In 2004, a group of heroes go out in a blaze of glory destroying the major players of evil, in this dimension."

"So what does that mean?" Buffy asked.

"It means that there were so many dead demon bodies and the like spread in L.A. that the general public had to take notice."

"Isn't that a good thing?" Buffy asked as she put her sycthe on the table.

"No it's..."

"It's better to be blind." Giles said as he began to clean his glasses. Jesse grinned in spite of herself. 'Damn Grandpa never changes.'

"What do you mean?" Buffy asked looking over at Giles.

"He means that because of everybody knowing about demons and such an apocalypse would be just around the corner. Which oddly enough is what happened. When people found out they demanded the government to protect them. So they set up an anti-demon committie and started killing off any demons they came across."

"And the demons in turn fought back." Giles stated.

"Exactly!" Jesse said as she grinned at Giles.

"So where do we come in? Don't we try to stop them?" Buffy asked nervously.

"Of course you tried to stop them. But that turned out to be the problem. In 2018 the government of America and other nations started digging into what the Watcher's council was all about. Once they found out about the Slayer's and them having a demon essence in them they hunted them down all over the world and killed them."

There was an audible gasp as Jesse told them this part. Then Buffy started to cry with Giles holding her. Then something hit Buffy.

"Wait, what do you mean all over the world? Buffy asked. "There's only me and Faith!"

"That's not true. Not yet anyway. You see the way you guys won the war with the First in the first place is because you made Willow do a spell to activate all of the potentials into Slayers."

"Damn that's a good plan." Buffy said with a huge smile.

"Actually it wasn't." Jesse said making Buffy lose her smile. "You see you didn't count on two things. One if you made all of the girls Slayer's now, the slayer line wouldn't exist anymore. Two if there are no more Slayers then the future would be left unprotected." Jesse said.

"If that's true then how can you be a Slayer?" Giles asked. "You look like you are about 15, and if you are indeed from the year 2023 and if the Slayer line is non-existant, then how can you be a Slayer?"

'Damn Grandpa is as sharp as ever.' "That's what I was going to tell you in the beginning of my story, until someone interrupted me." she said looking over at Buffy, who smiled sheepishly in return.

"I was born in 2007. My parents were the heads over the magicks and the civilians division of the new Watcher's Council. Basically you are the head of the council and my parents looked up to you as a father. So when I was born they introduced you as my Grandpa." Jesse said as she looked over at Giles to see his reaction. To her surprise Giles just stared at her impassively so she continued her story.

"But when I turned 11,." Jesse started until her eyes started misting over with tears. " Mom and Dad took me to the Watcher's Council, so I could show you that I mastered the magick trick you taught me. Then as a reward, you gave me this silver necklace. You said it was because i was a good girl and that I reminded you of somebody." Giles flinched a little at that but Jesse didn't seem to notice, so she continued.

"Later that day after I showed you the trick we went out into the parking lot and we were about to leave, until the Watcher's Council blew up. The explosion killed everybody inside, all the watcher's and slayer's alike(even buffy and faith), except me, my parents, and you." She stopped for a second and found that Giles was squeezing her hand.

"I remember you picking me up to get me away from the fire. Then the military came and started shooting at us. They were aiming at me, but you jumped in the way...." She stopped again as she broke down crying. Giles got down on one knee and bowed to her level to give her a hug.

"It's going to be alright, Dear." Giles soothed as he stroked her hair and back. "I'm here for you now."

"Mynmeisjeshe." she muffled into his shoulder. Breaking apart he looked at her.

"I'm sorry dear, I didn't quite catch that." Giles said with a little smile, to lighten the mood. Which worked because she smiled back at him.

"I said my name is Jesse." she said as she straighted herself and sat back into her seat.

"Jesse?" Giles said with a grin.

"It's really Jessica Harris, but my dad insists on calling me Jesse."

"Harris?" Buffy spoke for the first time in awhile. "Oh my God is Xander your father?" At least I know Xander and Anya make it out of this mess alive, Buffy thought to herself. But Jesse looks like someone else, not Anya though.

'So much for being secretive' Jesse thought to herself. "Yeah he's my dad!" Jesse said with a lopsided grin, Xander's grin. "And Willow is my mom."

"Whoa just wait a minute, Willow is a les..."

"A lesbian?" Jesse cut Buffy off. "It's a long story but basically mom and another girl wanted to have a baby. But the only guy Mom trusted was my dad, which my mom's girlfriend didn't like. They broke up after that. so Mom and Dad went and had me artificially assemmulated and I was born. Later they fell back in love with each other and got married."

"As much as I would like to hear about Xander and Willow, I would still like to know how you became a slayer." Giles said as he took his glasses off again and polished them. Jesse stiffled a giggle as she watched him.

"Ok. Well after you died mom, dad, and I got to our car and went into hiding. I stole one of mom's books and learned some intense spells. One of which was a spell to bring forth souls. I did the spell and called forth the souls of 3 Slayers (Which happened to be Kendra, Faith, and Buffy) and they went inside of me and endowed me with their powers."

She went on to tell them that Xander taught her military strategies (including weapons training) and Willow taught her magick. Then she told them how that since there were no slayer's around the bringers did a spell on the hellmouth in cleveland and in New Mexico and resurrected the First into corporeal form. After it roamed the earth, it defeated this dimension's forces and killed all of the world leaders. It also resurrected some of the old one's, so they could go all throughout other dimensions and conquer them. They took a large amount of humans with them and made them slaves, leaving earth a wasteland. The whole time Jesse told the story Giles just held her while Buffy sat back looking scared.

Chapter 5

After much needed talking Buffy, Jesse, and Giles finally emerged from the sitting room. They silently agreed that since Jesse knows what's going to happen, that she has some say so in how they handle things. She just had to run her ideas by Buffy or Giles first.


Most of the potentials were in the living room asleep and other's were in the kitchen eating.

"Hey! Faith that's my Poptart." Andrew complained as he and Faith emerged from the kitchen. Once he saw Giles he ran over to him.

"Giles, Faith stole my food again!" Andrew pouted.

"Easy, Andy it's not like it had your name on it or nothing." Faith said as she put the last piece of the Poptart in her mouth.

"But it did, see look." Andrew said as he produced the Pastry rapper that had his name on it in big letters.

"Sorry yo." Faith said as she lightly punched him on the arm. With a glare he stormed off mumbling things about hiding food.

"So I see you're up and about, Faith." Buffy said with a small smile.

"You know me. This girl takes a lickin' but keeps on tickin'." Faith joked. "So who's our mystery girl?" Faith asked pointing at Jesse. Buffy and Giles shared a look, but it was Jesse who answered.

"My name is Jessica Giles." she said holding out her hand to shake. "But you can call me Jesse." then the two shook hands.

" So the G-man really does have a grandchild." Faith said which recieved a muffled cough by Giles.

"Actually no. Giles is my father." Jesse lied. Faith looked at her wide eyed for a second then punched Giles in the arm.

"I thought you said you didn't have any kids G-man." Faith said.

"Quite, I ...."

"He didn't know about me until just now. And before you ask, the reason why I don't have an english accent is because my mom moved us to L.A. when I was little." Jesse said before Giles could finish. She could hear him polishing his glasses like a mad man.

"But that still doesn't explain why you called him Grandpa." Faith questioned even more. Jesse gave her a look before she answered. 'Man I thought mom told me that Faith was kind of slow. I guess those reports were mistaken.' she thought to herself.

"Well he looks so much like his father, my Grandpa, that I got kind of confused."

"Oh. But one more thing though, I've been talking to Kennedy and she said that you busted out some Slayer moves and saved us all. So what's up with that?"

"I can explain that." Giles said as he slid his glasses back on. "It seems that 2 years ago when Buffy jumped in that portal and died she activated another Slayer. My...daughter to be more accurate."

"And after that..." Jesse continued. "I got all these freaky powers and these demons try to attack me. Then two weeks ago my mom died, so I decided to look up my father." Jesse said a little sadly to throw Faith off.

"I'm sorry about your Ma." Faith said as she put a hand on the younger girls shoulder. "But, hey at least you gained a wicked cool Pa. Even though he is kind of boring sometimes." she said as she winked at Giles.

"I'm glad you're here. Sorry we had to meet under these circumstances though. Also thanks for saving our asses out there" Faith said.

"Like wise and you're welcome." Jesse said as Faith walked away from her and looked over at Buffy.

"Hey B what's that axe thing you got there?" Faith asked as she and Buffy started talking. Then Giles walked over to Jesse.

"Where did you learn how to lie like that?" Giles asked looking stern. Jesse just looked up at him with a lopsided grin. Getting the point Giles assumed that he must have taught her a little about Ripper in her future.

Her grin faded though when she looked over at where she hung her coat.

"Hey where's my shotgun?" she asked to no one in particular.

***

Xander was busy cleaning and polishing Jesse's shotgun in the kitchen. Something about the girl just seemed so familiar to him. He wasn't attracted to her or anything but he felt so close to her, like he'd known her his entire life.

As the door to the kitchen opened, the girl in question walked in, snapping him out of his reverie.

"Hi." Xander said making the other girls in the room look over at Jesse.

"Hi." she said with a little wave. As she was about to walk over to him, Kennedy stood up and blocked her path.

"Thanks for saving our butts back there." she said as she held out her hand. "I'm Kennedy, this is Rona, and she's Amanda." Kennedy said as she pointed to each of the girls and called out there names.

"It's nice to meet you all, my names Jessica...Jessica Giles." Once she said this the whole room was silent, until Xander spoke.

"Giles, is the G-man your dad?" Xander asked. Maybe that's why I feel like I know her, Xander mused.

"Yeah he is." Jesse lied as she stood beside him looking down at his hands. Xander followed her line of vision and saw that she was looking at her shotgun.

"Sorry." He said with a sheepish grin. "I saw that it was dirty and needed some cleaning." he said as he handed the 12 gauge back over to her.

"But the strangest thing is I've never seen a chamber system like that before."

"That's because it's a magical chamber." Jesse replied as she opened it up to show him.

"Magical?" Willow said as she came into the room.

"Yeah Willow, I was just explaining to Xander how my shotgun works." Jesse said smiling at Willow.

"How...How did you know my name?" Willow asked. "And mine?" Xander said.

'Damn me and my big mouth' Jesse thought bitterly to herself.

"That's because I told her Willow." Giles said as he slipped into the room unnoticed.

"Yeah dad speaks highly of you two." Jesse put in.

"Dad!" Willow said with wide eyes.

"Ye...Yes it seems as though Jesse is my daughter." Giles said as he walked back to the door. "I'll let her explain the details to you, I just came in to tell you we made some space for you to sleep in tonight." And with that Giles left the room.

After Giles was gone, all eyes fell to Jesse, who just shrugged. Motioning for everyone to take a seat, she told the same lies she told Faith only moments ago. After that she explained that her mom put a magical spell on her shotgun chamber to make the bullets replicate themselves. And to make the bullets more successful they had a silver core in them, that was mixed in with holy water and incinerary liquid.

"But I thought that Slayer's weren't supposed to use modern weapons?" Amanda asked.

"Hey when you're in L.A. you have to do what you have to do." Jesse joked. Jesse's spidey sense(ok I couldn't come up with something better to describe that wave of alarm that goes up when slayer's sense danger.) alerted her to trouble, but as soon as it was there it was gone. Shrugging it off she stood and gathered her gun.

"Hey guys I'm going to get a snack and then get some sleep. I have a feeling that we are going to have a long day tomorrow."

Almost on cue the lights to the house and the whole town went out. Most of the girls in the house started to scream, some even cried. But Jesse remained still and clutched her gun. Closing her eyes she started to concentrate, using all of her senses she was able to determine that demonic presenses were surrounding the house. But there was something else around the presenses that made her shudder. Snapping her eyes open a dark and evil growl permeated the air.

"WolfBlades." Jesse muttered to herself as she cocked her shotgun.

Chapter 6
End of days redux part 1



The night was thick with an evil mist as Principal Wood drove across town to get to Buffy's house. Giles seemed almost scared of something when he called him several hours ago. He in turn was a little apprehensive about going to Buffy's, because of Faith.

He didn't want her to think what they shared together was just about sex. Given a little time he would make her see that not all guys just want her for her body. As he took a right on Revello drive a foul stench filled the air and at the same moment a wolf's howl was heard.

"Damn what the hell was that?" he said as he rolled his window back up. As he got closer to the Summer's residence he saw over a hundred people shuffling about. As he stopped his car by a mass swarm of the people, the light from his car illuminated one of their faces. Or what was left of it.

His-its- face was deathly pale, except for the blood smeared around its rotting lips. Flaps of dried skin hung from its sunken cheeks, and the dark wells of the creature's eye sockets glittered with hunger as it reached out with skeletal hands-

To say the principal was shocked was an understatement. 'Great fucking zombies.' he said as he looked to Buffy's house that was about 30 feet away. Clutching onto the small machette that lay in his passenger seat he opened his door.

“Alright, I can do this.” he said, and slammed the car door. That turned out to be a mistake. Several of the undead were alerted by the noise and came charging. As the one he was looking at got close he used the machette and chopped it's head off.

As another one of the things came up behind him he shot an elbow out to greet it. As he tried to stab another zombie something big and fury lounged at him. Which made his weapon and the zombies nearest to him fall to the ground. Looking up he saw the hulking figure of a wolf. Getting to his feet he jumped over the hood of his car and made a run for the house.

"Please be open. Please be open." he said as he neared the house. Before he was able to grab the handle the door swung open.

***
As soon as the lights went off, the people in the Summers house began to scream. Closing her eyes and concentrating, Jesse activated her magical powers.

"ELECTRO'S!" she shouted as the lights in the house came back on.

"What the hell is going on!?" Buffy shouted as she entered the Kitchen. With Giles, Faith, and Spike not far behind.

"I don't know!" Willow answered with fear in her voice. "One minute were talking and the next minute the light's go out." she finished as she looked over at Jesse. Since Willow was the nearest to Jesse she heard her use a magical phrase to make the lights come back on.

Jesse ignored her and looked over at Buffy. "Buffy we have a problem. There are demonic presenses surrounding the house. I can't tell how many but there's ...alot. I'll do a quick patrol." she finished. Not waiting for a reply she stormed out of the kitchen grabbed her coat and opened the front door.

As she opened it she was surprised to see a heavily panting black man on the door step. Aiming her shotgun above his head she fired at the large Were' creature that was dangerously close to him. To their satisfaction the thing went down like a dog with a comical yelp. Stepping aside the man practically fell into the house.

Giving him the once over she turned around and started blasting into a crowd of zombies. After a few seconds the scooby gang and potentials came running into the room.(they didn't realize that Jesse had gone outside. Even though the blasting of the shotgun could be heard. Go figure there the scooby gang eh.) They saw Principal Wood on the floor gasping for air, but as they tried to run to him they saw a zombie try to shuffle into the house.

With lightning quick speed Faith jumped over Robin and drop kicked the Zombie out of the door.

As the door began to shut, well almost shut, a pair of bloody hands grabbed the door.

Everyone inside screamed as one of the undead slowly began to pry the door open, as Faith tried to push back on it. It was a very large man that was at least six- eleven and was incredibly muscular that had no shirt on and his torso was entirely covered in blood.

Once the thing had pried the door completely open (making Faith fall over in the process), and was about to jump in, a sword blade popped through its sternum, stopping just millimeters from Faith's face.

The monster let out an otherworldly cry of pain and let the door go. Jesse pulled the blade out and grabbed the monster around the neck, flinging it into the wall of the nearest house.

When the monster hit the brick wall, it hit with enough force to leave a body-sized hole in it. The monster hit the ground and Jesse quickly entered the house.

The monster she threw stood up and charged at the door. Jesse removed the shotgun from her back and aimed carefully.

The zombie was about ten feet away when Jesse pulled the trigger.

The top half of the thing’s head was ripped off entirely.

***

"Nibblet get away from the window!" Spike yelled as he pulled Dawn away. There seemed to be a permenate mask of horror on Dawn's face as she looked up at Spike with wide eyes.

"There's hundreds of them Spike..." Dawn croaked as Buffy came over to her. "What the hell are we going to do?"

Buffy looked at Dawn, hard, and then she looked over at Spike. 'Just what the hell are we going to do?' she thought as she heard the wails of the dead outside.

-

Willow immediately ran to her backpack when she saw how many zombies were outside. Robin, Xander, and a few potentials( the ones that weren't scared shitless) broke tables and took doors off the hinges to use as a barricade.

Finding the book she needed, Willow finally found the spell she was looking for. As she began the incantation, someone lightly tapped her on the shoulder. Turning she saw that it was Jesse.

"Have you seen my Dad?" she asked with concern in her voice. As Willow shook her head no, Jesse took off like a shot upstairs.

After searching three rooms, she finally found Giles in Buffy's room looking out of the window.

"Do you really think we can win this?" Giles asked with his back turned to her, still looking out of the window.

"Of course we are going to win." Jesse said as she joined Giles at the window. "When I was a little kid, and you read me stories, you always told me the good guys always win."

"Ah, but this is different." Giles said as he turned to look at Jesse. "Your presense here has caused something different to happen hasn't it?" As he said this Jesse looked down at her feet before she answered. Out of everybody in her family, Grandpa Giles was the only one to ever make her nervous.

" Yes Grandpa. From the stories you and my parents told me when I was young none of this stuff was supposed to happen." she said as she met his gaze for a second then lowered it back to her feet.

"It's going to be alright, dear." Giles said as he put his hand on her elbow. A second later he applied a lot of pressure to it.

"Grandpa you're hurting me!" Jesse screamed as she looked up at Giles, who had a murderous gleam in his eyes.

"Get away from her!" someone shouted from across the room. As both Giles and Jesse looked over to the voice they saw that it was Giles.

"Damn Rupert." Giles/First said. "You guys always have to spoil my fun." It said as it let go of Jesse's arm and morphed into Buffy. "Thanks for coming when you did, Jesse." The First said with a grin.

"Get the hell away from her." Giles demanded as he slowly inched towards them, axe in hand.

"Now Grandpa Giles is that anyway to talk in front of my daughter?" the First asked as it morphed into the future Xander.

"No...!" Jesse screamed as she curled into a ball and started crying. Xander/The First looked down upon her with a wicked smile.

"So she is supposed to be the savior of mankind?" Xander/the first asked mockingly with a laugh.

"I'll tell you what kid." The First said as it got down on it's knees. "Since you are responsible for me being corporeal, I'll give you one day to prepare yourself." Then it stood and looked over at Giles.

"Be seeing you G-man." it said with a small wave as it blinked out of existance. As soon as it left Giles ran to Jesse's side and held her against him.

"It's going to be alright." Giles soothed as she again cryed into his chest.

"No...." Jesse said in between sobs. "I let them die Grandpa." She said referring to her parents. Giles just held her as she cryed.

"From what you told us there was nothing you could have done." Giles tried to reassure. But it had the opposite effect as Jesse cried even harder.

"But, I'm the Slayer Grandpa. I'm supposed to be... supposed to be..."

"Strong." Giles answered for her.

"Yeah." she said as her tears started to subsided.

"Then be strong." Giles told her firmly. "Look at me Jesse." Giles told her as he put his hand under her chin.

"Your parent's might have died in the future, but what about now?" Giles asked. "Your parents made a huge sacrifice, now what are you going to do, sit here and cry?"

"But Grandpa..."

"But nothing Jesse!" Giles all but screamed. "Your parents need you to be strong now, Jesse." Giles said as he made eye contact with her. "I need you to be strong." he added in a more gentle tone.

In that moment Jesse made a decision. Enough of being a scared all the time. With a plan forming in her head she decided. Now is the time to fight.

I think my writing has come a long way and I wanted to thank everyone that reviewed. especially you Kali - ;)
Chapter 7
End of Days redux part 2

Just as fast as the zombies came to the porch, they quickly turned around and shuffled away. Much to the relief of the occupants in the house.

"What the 'ell is going on?" Spike asked as he came to the partially boarded up window.

"Their just...leaving." Kennedy answered from her position at the window. At this moment Jesse and Giles came down from upstairs.

"The First is giving us a break." Jesse said in answer to everyone's question. "I just had a visit by it." As soon as she said this she was bombarded with a hundred questions at once. To her amazement Giles was the one to silence them.

"Enough everyone!" Giles shouted. Then all eyes feel on him. "I'm afraid we have an even bigger problem." he said as he removed his glasses. "It seems that the first is now corporeal."

"WHAT!" everyone exploded at the same time.

"Oh great now we don't have to wait for that freaky preacher to come and kill us. Now the first can do itself." Rona fumed as she sat down on the couch.

"What do you mean the first is corporeal?" Buffy asked looking expectantly at Giles.

"The only conclusion I can come up with is that we now have three Slayers. And since there are three it has caused an imbalance, thereby giving the First the power to assume corporeal form." Giles explained. Before anybody could shoot down his crack pot theory (like the fact that since jesse was supposed to have been a slayer for 2 years, then why would the first just now take corporeal form.)

"Now everyone go get some sleep. As the First has already made it clear, that it will attack tomorrow."

"Right Rupes, like anyone can get some sleep after that." Spike said as he approached him. Only for Jesse to get in his way.

"You heard my father Vampire." Jesse said as she kept walking making Spike take a few steps back. "I personally don't care what you do, but the potentials need rest for what's about to go down tomorrow."

"Oh, and who made you General?" Spike asked as he looked over at Giles with a pointed look on his face. He never saw the punch coming.

"Oh, I'm not a General just a soldier." she stated as she walked off, leaving Spike on the other side of the room rubbing his jaw.

"Does anybody else have any objections to getting some rest?" Giles asked the stunned group in front of him. To his delight everyone just shook there heads. "Good."
***
"Well now." Caleb started as he walked down the stairs of the vineyard. "It seems that this really is the end of days. What with the dead people and all." Caleb said to Buffy/The First as they stood in front of an army of the dead.

"Nothing will stop us this time." The First muttered as a few uber-vamps appeared in the room.

"This time?" Caleb asked.

"Yeah. It seems that the new girl in town, I was telling you about is from the future. I guess when she fell through the portal the spell that made me corporeal was activated."

"But what do you mean by we will win this time?" Caleb asked but then he thought about it for a second. "Oh!"

"Oh, indeed." The first said as it changed into Caleb.

"In this time line i was supposed to lose. But sometime in the future I get to destroy this world." The first said in Calebs southern drawl.

"Hallelujah!" Caleb said as if he was hearing a sermon.

"Now did you do the job I told you about?" The First asked slightly amused as it turned back into Buffy.

"Yeah I did." Caleb said with a smile. "I snapped her neck like kindling."

"Good. Now that the Guardian (That old lady that told Buffy about the scythe on the show) is dead, it's time to plan our next move." she said as a WolfBlade layed down at her feet.

***
10 hours later

Jesse was just waking up from her much needed sleep when someone walked into her room.

"Hi Willow." Jesse greeted as she saw the red head duck into the room.

"Hi." Willow greeted back. "Giles wanted me to tell you that he wants to see you downstairs."

"Ok." Jesse said as she got out of bed. To her surprise Willow was still standing there watching her. "What?" Jesse asked as she looked at her with a grin.

"Oh. Sorry for staring it's just that.....do we know each other from somewhere?"

'Damn, I wish I could just tell her the truth.' Jesse thought bitterly to herself. "I get that alot." Jesse said with a grin.

"Just tell dad I'll be down in a few minutes. I have to freshen up first." With that Willow nodded and headed back downstairs.

20 minutes later after a shower and a change of clothes (Which Buffy gave her earlier that day) Jesse made her way downstairs. Looking around in the Living room she saw that she was alone. Hearing some noise in the kitchen, she made her way in there and saw Willow and Giles sitting at the table together.

"Good morning Gran... Dad." Jesse said as she sat down at the table. "Where is everyone?" She asked referring to the scoobies, potentials, and the slayers.

"They all went to get weapons, food, and the like." Giles said as he looked over at Willow. "But what I wanted to talk to you about is to see if you have come up with a plan yet?"

"Actually yeah." she said as she produced a grocery sack. After 5 minutes of explaining her plan, Giles removed his glasses and started polishing it on his shirt.

"So what do you two think?" Jesse asked as she took the green and silver amulets out of the sack and put them on the table.

"What you're asking is...."

"Both crazy and reckless." Giles said as he put his glasses back on. "But I like it." he said with a smile.

After setting up the supplies they needed, Jesse put her sword on the table(Which was a rune weapon like the scythe, that Jesse found in the future, by the New Mexico hellmouth) the three began the spell.

The sword on the table suddenly flares with a brilliant white light as tremendous power flows from it into the amulets. As they sat there in amazement ghostly figures emerged from nowhere into the room. Their smiles were cut short as they saw a ghost that had an aura of black walk near them. Giles and Willow knew immediately who it was. It was the first Slayer.

"Who dares to envoke the ghosts of the fallen Slayers?" she asked as she looked between the three of them.

"I did." Jesse said as she stood up.

"You are merely a child." the first slayer stated as she cocked her head to the side. "Why have you summoned us?"

"Because The First Evil is here and is trying to destroy the world." Jesse explained.

"I understand. But why should we release our powers to you?"

"Because I'm a Slayer."

"A Slayer?" she asked as she looked at Jesse closer, as if she were looking into her mind and soul. "Ah you are a artificial Slayer. I see the powers of three mighty warriors inside you." she said as she took a step back.

"Very well we will grant your wish." And with that the First Slayer dissappeared and the ghosts went inside the amulets.

After the bright lights went away the group fell to the floor in fatigue.

"Damn that was..."

"Intense." Giles finished for Willow. At her nod the trio slowly stood up.
At that moment the kitchen door opened and Buffy and the others entered.

"What's going on?" Buffy asked looking over the group.

"Nothing much. We just figured out how to save the world." Jesse replied with a lopsided grin. At Buffy's look she pointed to the amulets.

"Vi, Rona would you two mind telling all the others to come in the kitchen?" Giles asked. They nodded and headed into the living room to get the others. After all of them came into the room, Giles explained what occured with the slayer spirits.

When Buffy asked about the slayer line, Jesse told her that they are just borrowing the power. The strength and skills were connected with the amulets and not the girls. That way the Slayer line would still exist.

After the potentials put the amulets on they felt dormant powers develop in thier bodies. As a mysterious white light appeared and disappeared into their bodies they felt like new people. The experience was different for one person in particular though.

Rona looked over at Spike with hatred in her eyes and then she looked over at Principal Wood. After a moment of staring at the man, she figured out who it was.

"Robin?" Rona asked but not in her voice but someone elses. Someone very familiar to the principal. Principal Wood looked over at Rona with a questioning look on his face. But then it clicked with him who it was.

"Mom?" he questioned back. At her nod they ran to each other and hugged.

"You grew up to be a handsome man Robin." Nicki Wood said still holding her son.

"Mom!" he said again as he hugged her tighter and cried.

There reunion was cut short though as the back kitchen door burst open. A very familiar man ran into the room holding up an orange crystal and then the house exploded.

This is something else for you Kali while you are waiting for the next chapter. It is buffy and angel trivia.

* Did you know that Bianca Lawson (Kendra) was originally supposed to play cordelia of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. But because she was on another show at the time she couldn't do it.

* We all know that The first Angel team consisted of Angel, Cordelia and Doyle, but did you know that it was originally supposed to be Whistler instead of Doyle?

*Alyson Hannigan was not the first actress to play Willow. It was originally an actress called Riff Regan in the pilot, but it was later changed

*Originally in the Season Six finale "Grave" Buffy and Dawn were supposed to fight the Dragon that came out of the portal in "The Gift". However budget limitations scrapped this idea

*If Amber Benson had returned in Buffy Season Seven she would have walked around as the First for a while, before finally becoming human again in "Chosen".

*In "The Gift" Anya was originally supposed to die. However Joss wanted to make the 100th episode much more dramatic. And what could be more dramatic then killing off your lead character

*In a cut scene from "Chosen" Principal Wood and Giles share both a joint (in one version) and airport bottles of whisky (Version 2). Neither made the final cut

*Jonothan M. Woodward is the only actor to have appeared in every Mutant Enemy Show, playing Holden (Buffy) the treacherous Knox (Angel) and Tracey (Firefly). EDIT: Andy Umberger and Carlos Jacott have also appeared in both.

* If Britney Spears was to appear in Buffy it would have been as the April-Bot in "I was Made to Love You"

*Joss Whedon's favourite Buffy weapon is the crossbow. Mine personally, the axe

*The first Buffy episode to prompt a public service announcement was "I only have eyes for you" in which Sarah Michelle Gellar warned teens of suicide

*Sarah Michelle Gellar, Alyson Hannigan and Charisma Carpenter all share the same shoe size

* Ms Rosenberg? Willow was originally going to be a teacher in Buffy Season Seven

*If Angel Season 6 had happened, Joss Whedon wanted Oz to become a series regular, and Willow to guest star reguarly. Now all we can do is curse Jordan Levin. Also Amy Acker was to play a double role as Illyria/Fred.

*It took George Hertzberg over five hours to get into Adam's make-up

*Ripper, the unmade Giles spin-off starring Anthony Stewart Head (although with Anthony Stewart Head's comments it may not be as dead as it seems) would have been set in Bath, incedentially where the Season Seven English scenes from "Lessons" were filmed

*Sarah Michele Gellar and Alyson Hannigan are the only two actresses to have appeared in every single episode of Buffy. Nicholas Brendon appeared in all but "Conversations with Dead People", Anthony Stewart Head appeared in 122/144 episodes. No other actor has appeared in more than 100 episodes with James Marsters at 96 episodes and Emma Caulfield at 82. Incedentally David Boreanaz is the only person to have appeared in every episode of Angel, with Alexis Denisof following close behind with 102/110 epsiodes and J. August Richards at 90 epsisodes and Angel's leading (and now dead) lady, Charisma Carpenter at 86 episodes.

* Only two episodes in Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel have had two titles: Buffy Season Ones' "Out of Mind, Out of Sight" was also the shorter (and much less original) "Invisible Girl", while Angel Season Four had the action packed "Apocalypse Nowish" also called "Rain of Fire". Some people could argue that the 13th episode of Angel Season Five: "Why we Fight" was also called "!943" but nothing official has come out of the ME offices. As an interesting side point BTVS's "Helpless" was originally going to be called "18" while "Lies My Parents told me" had "Mothers and Sons" as a title for a while in production.

* Continuing the vein above, Doug Petrie revealed in his Season Four commentry of the episode that "The Initiative" was origianally called "Secret Agent Man". This was changed, however because the writers felt that it was too obvious and gave away the plot of the episode

*Jane Espenson wrote two scripts for Buffy Animated called 'Teeny' and 'Food Fight'

*Riley Finn, was only supposed to be in three episodes. However he ended up staying for 30. To find out what I think Riley Finn should be doing now, go to my Seven Crows page for my Riley, Sam, Buffy and Angel spin-off, based on the book of the same name

*Harry Groenor (The Mayor) was born in Augsberg, Bavaria. Anyone else heard of it?

* Have a Little Faith - In Season Seven of Buffy, Eliza Dusku's voice is a little higher, because her deeper voice was destroying her vocal chords

*For the Faith and Buffy body switch episode "Who are You", Joss Whedon penned six drafts

*Emma Caulfield is a trained psycologist

*On the subject of Emma Caulfield, its interesting to note that she was actually only the second choice to play Anya. The original choice backed out, because the role was only for two episodes. Bet she's kicking herself in the gut now!

*The Oz and Veruca storyline in Season Four was supposed to go on for more than two episodes but due to Seth Green wanting to leave it had to be cut short

*David Fury has made three cameo's in the BuffyVerse. Twice as the Mustard Man ("Once More with Feeling" and "Selfless") and the puppet master in "Smile Time"

*If you Google Search "Buffy" at this time of writing it comes up with 5,190,000 results

*Joss Whedon went to school in Winchester, Hampshire, England. My city (Southampton) is it's sister city, and I can tell you what Winchester is about. 1. It is mucho, mucho expensive. 2. All the people who live there speak very posh and la-de-dah. 3. It's like history central of the world! His parents must have been pretty rich to have afforded somewhere like that, but I would love a house there

*The Season Seven episode "Him" was actually a lengthened version of (the soon to be reborn) Buffy Animated. Incedentially, the writer of this episode Drew Z. Greenberg was first brought in to be a writer for the Cartoon Slayer

*In the Angel Season Three episode "Birthday", the voice singing over the title credits to "Cordy!" is Buffy executive producer Marti Noxon

*Ok, so its not like anybody didn't know this, but just in case, Alyson Hannigan (Willow) and Alexis Denisof (Wesley) are married

*In the episode "Dopplegangland" Alyson Hannigan said that if she moistened her breast inserts they would stick to the wall. These inserts weren't actually in her by the way

*Buffy's last word is "Spike". Dawn has the last word in 'Chosen' with "Yeah Buffy what do we do now?". Meanwhile on Angel the last word was spoken by the souled vampire himself and was "Lets go to Work"

*Angel's leather duster, from Hugo Boss, cost $1000, while Spike, a mere guest star at the time, had his jacket at $1,600

*The first episode of Buffy to air in this millenium was "Doomed" (Season Four) in which an apocalypse was averted.

*In order to create the effect of extreme torture, in between takes, on the Buffy Season Two episode "Becoming Part Two", Anthony Stewart Head would pop chilli peppers into him mouth

*Buffy Animated producer Jeph Loeb has a son called Sam who has written a story for "Tales of the Vampires" the monthly comic strip

Chapter 8
End of Days Redux

Later that day, night fall

"Good boy." Buffy/First said to the WolfBlade as she pat it on the head. "Now go with the others.'

The First made a connection with the WolfBlades, so anything they see, she see's. The WolfBlade in question just came back from scouting Buffy's house. Or the debris of it to be more accurate. It seems that when the First staged the zombie attack on Buffy's house, she had the bringers place bombs on it.

"Caleb, it's time for the next phase of my plan." The First said as the WolfBlade scampered away. "Since the Slayers and potentials are dead were going to attack there last line of defense. After Angel and his pathetic friends are destroyed, the world is ours." she said as Caleb just grinned at her.

"Now take the bringers and the Turok-han and go to Los Angeles. I'll get the zombies and the WolfBlades and meet you there." she said as they began to walk towards the door.

" You know something alway's bothered me." Caleb said as they moved to open the door.

"What kind of fella' calls himself Angel?" he asked as he opened the door. As he did he was shocked to see someone standing in front of him.

"I don't know, the ladies seem to like it." Angel said as he punched Caleb in the face.

***
Several hours earlier around 1 a.m.

After their little battle with the zombies everyone got some much needed sleep. All except two people. Seeing that Xander was still awake, Jesse slowly made her way over to him.

"Xander can we talk for a second?" Jesse asked as she sat next to him on the couch.

"Sure." Xander replied as he put down his playing cards.(he was playing solitarie.)

"I need to go into town and get some supplies and..." she stopped herself and looked up into his face. "I want you to come with me."

"Ok. just let me tell Buff...."

"No. I just want me and you to go." she said only for him to look at her funny.

"Look it'll be light out soon. Plus the First said it'll give us a full day to prepare ourselves." she said hoping he would come with her. In actuallity she really wanted to spend time with her father while he was young. Growing up, she had alot of happy memories with her father, until the first came of course.

Xander looked at her for a few minutes and then stood up. "Ok, just let me grab a jacket and then we'll leave."

An hour later after breaking into the mall (that's where she got the amulets) they quickly made it to Xander's car.

"Ok are we done yet?" Xander asked as he put the last of the bags in his car. Before she could answer, a black limo pulled up. Sensing a demonic presense inside, Jesse reached for her shotgun. As the door opened Xander saw the last person he ever thought he would see.

"Deadboy?" Xander said through gritted teeth. Angel just looked at the young man before him for a second. Then he realized who it was. Gone was the scrawny little teen boy, who was a pain in his ass. Now stood before him was a man. A man with an eyepatch.

"Xander?" Angel asked as he stepped forward. "What the hell happened to you?" Angel asked referring to his eye patch. 'I knew that boy would get in trouble one day.' Angel thought to himself.

"Don't worry about me Captain Hairgel." Xander growled touching his eyepatch for a second. "Now what the hell are you doing here?"

Angel allowed himself a smile. He's still the same pain in the ass, Angel thought bitterly.

"I heard you guys have your share of distress. So I'm here to help."

"Listen Deadboy we don't need...."

"Actually we do." Jesse cut in. "Xander I need you to trust me on this one okay."

Xander looked from Angel to Jesse and sighed. "Ok."

After getting in the limo with Angel (Xander was trailing them in his own car) Jesse explained everything to Angel. (except the part about her being from the future).

"So The First is back?" Angel asked digging into his pocket and pulling out the amulet.

"Yeah now listen I have a plan. But first I need you to take us to the vineyard."

"You mean where the bad guys are?" Angel asked.

"Exactly. I need to do a little recon." she replied. Angel looked at her for a moment not liking the idea but nodded anyway. Giving the driver a few directions they set off to the vineyard.
___
Jesse climbed to the roof of the vineyard to spy on the First (she stole a bugging device from the spy shop at the mall) leaving Angel and Xander as lookouts on the ground. After a few minutes of silence from the two, Xander decided to break the ice.

"So Deadboy how's Cordy?" Xander asked in a whisper. To Xander's surprise the vampire looked at him as if he were going to cry.

"Xander there's something you should know..." Angel started, but was cut off as Jesse jumped down in front of him.

"Guys we have a big problem." Jesse said wide eyed. "When the First staged the attack on the house with those zombies, she had the bringers put a bomb on the house."

"What!" Xander almost screamed. "Let's go to the house and get everyone out."

"No..."

"What!" Xander said again a little louder.

"Damnit Xander be quiet. Do you want to get us killed?" Angel asked.

"Just calm down Xander and listen to me." Jesse started. "We can use this to our advantage. The bomb isn't supposed to go off until tomorrow. But...." Jesse said looking over at Angel.

"I'm going to need your help."

Xander opened his mouth to protest until Jesse glared at him. Closing his mouth he listened to her plan. After the three parted way's, Angel got into his limo and dialed a familiar number on his cell phone.

"Yeah, Wes This is Angel. Listen get the team together and head over to Sunnydale. Yeah it's another apocolypse." Angel said with a grin as he hung up the phone.

Skip to right before the explosion at Buffy's house

Coming back to Sunnydale brought about fond and not so fond memories for Wes, as he and the others reached Buffy's home.

"You guys stay here. I'll be back." Wes said to Angel and Gunn (it was the middle of the day so Angel had to stay in the car).

"Sure English, hog all the credit." Gunn said as he looked at the Englishman. Wes just shook his head and grinned as he closed the door.As he walked up to the door he heard a beeping sound. Closing his eyes he listened to the sound and determined that it was coming from behind the house.

As he turned the corner he looked in the small kitchen window and saw Buffy and a lot of girls.

"So those must be the potentials." Wes muttered as his foot hit something. Looking down he saw the timer for the bomb.

"Bloody Hell!" Wes said as the timer read five seconds. Reaching into his jacket pocket he pulled out an orange crystal and kicked down the back kitchen door.

"Release!" Wes shouted raising the stone . As soon as the word left his mouth the room filled with a orange light, then the house exploded.

As some of the dust settled the kitchen and the people in it were shown intact.

"Come on everyone, go outside." Wes said still holding up the stone. "This spell will only last for a few more seconds."

With that said the entire group piled out of the kitchen. Spike grabbed a blanket and made a mad dash for the door. As Wes himself stepped out of the room and lowered the stone, the kitchen fell to pieces and burned.

"What took you so long Wes?" Jesse asked. "Another few seconds and we would have been toast."

"I apologize." Wes replied with a sheepish grin.

"W....Wesley?" Buffy asked finally taking a good look at the man before her.

"Yes Miss Summers it's me." Wes said as the two hugged.

"Damn you look good..." Buffy blurted out. Then her eyes went wide once she realized what she said. "I...I mean..."

"You look good as well, Miss Summers." Wes replied with a smile as the two broke there hug.

"You've changed a great deal, Wesley." Giles said with a grin.

"Like wise." he said as the two shook hands.

"Not to put a damper on the reunion mate..." Spike said from under his blanket. "but a bloke can burn to death out 'ere." Spike screamed as part of his skin was exposed to the sun. Making his flesh sizzle.

Wes looked over at him for a second. Then he realized who it was.

"Spike?"

"I'll explain later Wes...." Buffy said grabbing the Englishman's arm, before any trouble got started. "Let's just go."

***

As the group made it in front of the house, they saw a green skinned demon with his arm around a young woman.

"Demon!" one of the girls shouted as they started to run towards it. Only for Faith to stop her.

"Let me handle him." she said as she walked up to the demon. All the girls were stunned when Faith enveloped him in a hug.

"Hey Green bean." Faith greeted as she broke there hug. "What the hell are you guys doing here?"

"We're here to save the day, princess." Lorne replied. "And you must be Buffy?" Lorne asked, as the girl in question walked up to him, with a murderous look on his face. The look however didn't go unnoticed.

"It's cool Buffy. He's a part of Angel's team." Faith said. With this knowledge, Buffy and the others phisically relaxed.

"I'm still burning up 'ere people!" Spike called out.

"Oh sorry." Fred apologized.

"We'll do introductions later." Gunn called out as he got out of the limo. "But we need to be heading out."

With that Spike ran for the safety of the limo. As he got in he looked over at the last person he ever wanted to see.

"Peaches?"

just one quick comment, its been stated many times that the first cant take corporeal form, so it wouldnt be able to touch anyone/anything


It's stated briefly in chapter 7 why it's able to do that.

"Yeah. It seems that the new girl in town, I was telling you about is from the future. I guess when she fell through the portal, the spell that made me corporeal was activated."


Besides the show was good, but why have a villian that could do nothing more than talk and appear as dead people. That seemed stupid to me.

Chapter 9
Last Moments

"Spike! What the hell are you doing here?" Angel asked.

"Captain Forehead..." Spike started.

"Spike who the hell are you..... Angel." Buffy said shocked as she saw her once former lover.

"Buffy....." Angel said as he looked at her hard and then sniffed the air. "Why do I smell Spike on you?" he finally said after a moment. Buffy nearly dropped her scythe as she looked at him wide eyed. But she was saved from questioning as Willow climbed into the limo.

Buffy then gave Angel a look, that said 'We'll talk about this later.'

"Hi Angel!" Willow said as she hugged the vampire. Ripping his glare away from Spike, he managed a smile.

***

"O.k., you must be Buffy's little sister Dawn?" Fred asked the brunette in front of her. At her nod she continued.

"We'll then you'll be coming with me and Lorne. Since there's no traffic, we should make it to L.A. in about an hour."

"What!" Dawn shouted. "I'm not leaving. I'm staying to fight." Dawn wanted her to know.

"Dawn...." Jesse called out her name as she touched her on the shoulder. "did Buffy teach you how to fight?"

"Not really but..."

"Dawn we need experienced fighters. We can't afford to have anybody in the way."

Dawn turned all shades of red as she shot Jesse dirty looks.

"Look Dawnie, Jesse's right." Xander said as he looked down at her. "Buffy want be able to concentrate on the fight if she has to worry about you."

Dawn then shot Xander a dirty look, until finally she nodded. "O.k., but you better protect her Xander!" Dawn said as she hugged the man she had a crush on for years.

"Alway's." Xander said as they broke their hug.

"Ok, are there anymore non-combatants?" Lorne asked the group.

"Yeah those two." Xander said pointing at Anya and Andrew.

"What!" both of them shouted at the same time.

"But I have to seek redemption for what I did. Much like on....."

"Oh shut up Andrew!" Anya shouted. "Xander I'm not leaving you."

"Aun please! Just leave and be safe, Ok. I promise after all of this is over, we'll meet up in L.A." Xander promised.

"Alright I'll leave. But you better not die on me Xander Harris." Anya said as she grabbed Andrew by the arm. No one saw Jesse frown at these turn of events. 'Damn, if she lives I might not ever be born,' she thought bitterly to herself.

"Come on monkey boy." Anya said as Lorne led the way to their car.

"Hey that hurts!" Andrew shouted as Anya tighted her grip on his arm.

"Alright, everybody else come with me." Wes said walking ahead of the group. "I've aquired a mode of transportation for us." he said as he led them to a school bus.

***

Thirty minutes later, the entire group met up at the warehouse Jesse came into this time at.

"Alright, everyone arm yourself as you like. In about six hours were going to go after The First." Buffy called out to everyone in the room. It was a good thing that the Fang Gang brought tons of weapons with them. Or Buffy and Co. would have been screwed.

"Buffy we need to talk." Angel said as he grabbed her roughly by the arm.

"What the hell about?" she asked as she wrenched her arm free.

'Is she really this dense?' Angel thought to himself. "About Captain Peroxcide over there." Angel said as he pointed at Spike. Who was about to walk up to the two, before Rona and Principal Wood stopped him.

"You’re not telling me something and his scent… I remember it pretty well."

"You vampires. Didn’t anybody ever tell you the whole “smelling people” thing’s a little gross?" Buffy said starting to get a little pissed.

"Is he your boyfriend?"

"Is that your business?" Buffy snapped totally pissed.

"Are you in love with him? (beat) Okay, maybe I’m out of line but this is kind of a curve ball for me. I mean, we are talking about Spike here."

"It’s different. He’s different. He has a soul now."

"Oh!" Angel said taken aback. "Well. BUFFY What?" Angel said now totally confused. "That’s great. Everyone’s got a soul now.

"He’ll make a difference." Buffy reasoned.

"You know, I started it. The whole having a soul. Before it was all the cool new thing." Angel said not hearing what Buffy just said.

"Oh, my god, are you twelve?"

"I’m getting the brush-off for Captain Peroxide. It doesn’t necessarily bring out the champion in me."

"You’re not getting the brush-off. And besides you're the one that left me remember." Angel flinched a little at that last part.

"Ok, Ok." Angel said as he held his hands up in mock surrender. "What you do is none of my business. All I'm saying is be careful. And before I forget I brought something else as well." He removes a silver amulet with a multi-faceted crystal at its center from his pocket.

"I can already tell you, I have nothing that goes with that." Buffy joked.

"It’s not for you."

"Splainy?"

"I don’t know everything." Angel admitted. "It’s very powerful and probably very dangerous. It has a purifying power… cleansing power… possibly scrubbing bubbles. The translation is… anyway, it bestows strength to the right person who wears it."

"And the right person is?"

"Someone ensouled but stronger than human. A champion. As in me."

"Or me."

"No. I don’t know nearly enough about this to risk you wearing it. Besides, you’ve got that real cool axe-thing going for you."

"Angel, this time the bad guy is killing off the potentials. Trying to destroy the Slayer line. So I'm taking that real personal. And honestly I need anything that'll hurt The First." she said as she held her hand out.

Angel looked at her hand for a long moment. After what seemed like an eternity he handed over the the amulet.
***
Spike saw Angel grab Buffy. Not liking what he saw, he started on his way over. Until Rona and Principal Wood stepped in his path.

"No time to talk, luv." Spike said stepping aside as he heard Buffy and Angel talking about a dangerous Amulet. "I have some business to take care of." he said as he continued walking. But he stopped dead in his tracks as he heard Rona's voice.

"So you don't have time to talk to an old friend?" Nikki asked with a grin, that quickly turned into a scowl as Spike turned around.

"Nikki?" Spike asked wide eyed.

"Yes it's me, Vampire." she answered looking at Spike with utter disgust.

"Nikki...I....I...."

"Is this the part where you tell me you're sorry or that you have a soul?" Nikki asked. "Well guess what Spike I don't care." she said stepping up to him. "All I want you to know is that when this is all over, I'm coming after you." she threatened.

"And if she doesn't get to you, I will." Principal Wood said as the two walked off. Leaving a stunned Spike in there wake.

"Damn does anybody ever stay dead in this town?" Spike muttered as he walked off.
***

"Good move getting Dawn and the others out of here." Willow complemented Jesse as she sat down beside her. On the ride over Angel told her all about Jesse's little plan.

"Thanks." Jesse said with a smile.

"Listen." Willow started as she began to fidget. "I just thought that since this might be our last day together, that we should get to know each other better."

"Sure what do you want to know?" Jesse asked.

"Well I already know that you're from L.A. and a Slayer. So why don't you tell me about your parents. Well your mom at least, I mean I already know your father...." Willow began to babble but caught herself. She really didn't know that Jesse was enjoying that though.

"I'm sorry for babbling so much." Willow apologized.

"It's Ok." Jesse said with a lopsided grin.

'There it is again.' Willow thought to herself. 'Everytime that girl smiles, it just reminds me so much of Xander.'

"Well let's see." Jesse started. "About my mom. Well she was very pretty and she had firey red hair like your's. Oh and she was a very powerful Wicca." she stated proudly. That last part seemed to perk Willow up.

"Your mom was a Wicca?" Willow asked. At Jesse's nod she continued. "Is she the one who got you started doing magicks?" Willow asked.

"Actually my Grandpa...." she cast a look over at Giles who was having a heated discussion with Wes, Xander, and Faith. "was the one who got me started in spells. But after he died my mom taught me some more advanced stuff."

Willow laid a sympathetic hand on her shoulder and pulled her into a hug. After that they sat and talked about a few things and what they wanted to do after this was all over.

"I'm sorry to disturb you two." Buffy said as Angel and Giles stood behind her. "But we need to talk strategy, if were going to beat The First."
***
Everyone sat in a circle planning strategies and shooting down others. That was until Jesse stood up and formulated a plan.

"Me, Xander, and Angel did a recon mission last night." Jesse stated.

"What!" Buffy exploded. "Damnit Xander you could have been killed!" Buffy said as she started to stand, only for Angel to restrain her.

"Buffy just hear her out." Angel advised. Buffy shot Xander a glare but then sat back down.

"As I was saying we did a little recon and we found out that The First is going to split it's forces. Since it's doing that we need to do likewise."

Then Jesse went on to explain her plan to the others. There assignments given out some got rest, while others talked about the times to come.

Thanks for the reviews. To answer your question Alan this part of the story takes place during the middle of end of days and right before chosen. If this doesn't answer your question just elaborate on what chapter of the story you are talking about and I'll let you know what episode it's before or after.

on with the chapter

Slight Intermission
30 minutes before the big battle
Nightfall

Wesley sat in a corner by himself loading his shotgun. The cool feel of the metal strangely soothing him.

"One apocolyspe down, one more to go." he muttered to himself. The whole time he didn't know that Jesse was standing behind him.

"That's not going to work you know." Jesse said startling him.

"Oh Jesse it's just you." Wes said calming down a bit. "What do you mean it want work?"

"I was talking about your shotgun. For your part of the mission you're going to need silver." she said as she handed him one of her silver bullets.

"There's a replicator spell on the bullet. That way, you don't have to worry about running low on ammo." Jesse explained.

"How does a little girl know such difficult spells?" A shocked Wes asked.

"What can I say. I learned from the best." Jesse said with a shrug as she sat down beside him. As they talked for awhile Jesse began to get up until she remembered to do something.

"Wes, will you promise me something?" Jesse asked.

"Of course. Anything." Wes said as he looked up at the girl.

"Just promise me that in May of 2004, that you will read what's on this CD." she said as she handed him the disk that was in her bag.

"What's so important about...?"

"Just promise me Wes!" Jesse said with alot of emotion in her voice.

"Alright." Wes promised as he put the CD into his pocket.

"So you're a Principal of a school now?" Nikki asked her son. At his nod Nikki continued.

"I'm so proud of you!" she squealed as she gave him a hug. "I knew you would make something of yourself." she said as she looked up at him. Only to see that he was sad.

"What's wrong honey?" she asked already knowing the answer.

"When you take that amulet off you're going to leave me again." Wood said as a tear rolled down his eye.

"Oh, honey." Nikki said sympatheticly as she squeezed his hand. "Remember what I told you when you were little?" she asked. When he didn't answer she continued. "Even if mommy has to go away, I'll....."

"Always be in your heart." Wood finished for her.

"That's my boy." she said as they hugged one final time.

***

"So you're Gunn right?" Xander asked the slightly older black man in front of him.

"That's right dawg. And that's with two N's, so don't forget it." Gunn said with a smile.

"I got it." Xander said with a grin of his own.

"Listen, I was talking to Deadboy...."

"Deadboy?" Gunn asked.

"Yeah... that's a little nickname I have for Angel." Xander replied with a sheepish grin.

"Deadboy..." Gunn said getting used to the name. "I think I like that."

"Well, We'll talk about that later. What I want to talk about now is Cordy." Xander stated. And to his surprise, Gunn shared the same look Angel did almost a day before.

"Listen man, you need to sit down for this." Gunn said as the two went into a corner and started talking.

***
"Alright guys get on the bus. Everybody else you know what your mission is." Buffy said to her troops. As one everyone stood and walked out.

When Buffy turned around though Spike was standing there watching her.

"What is it Spike...." Buffy started but was cut off when the vampire kissed her.

"What was that for?" Buffy asked as they broke there kiss.

"It was for good luck." Spike said simply as he put something in his pocket and walked out of the door.

Buffy turned back to the three who are left: Giles, Willow and Xander. One by one she looks at the best friends she’s ever known, then smiles.

"So… what do you guys want to do tomorrow?" Buffy asked.

"Nothing strenuous." Willow replied happily.

"Well, mini-golf is always the first thing that comes to mind." Xander offered.

"I think we can do better than that." Giles said looking over at Xander.

"I was thinking about shopping- as per usual." Buffy said.

"There’s an Agnes B in the new mall!" Willow said excitedly.

"Good. I could use a few items." Xander said already making a list in his head.

"Aren’t we going to discuss this?" Giles asked. "Save the world and go to the mall?"

"I’m having a wicked shoe craving." Buffy said ignoring the comment.

"Aren’t you on the patch?" Xander joked.

"Those never work." Willow joked back.

"And here I am, invisible to the eye, not having any say…" Giles said feeling left out. Xander, Buffy and Willow start to walk out the warehouse door.

"See, I need a new look. It’s this whole eye patch thing." Xander said, already knowing they would make a joke about it.

"Oh! You could go with the full black secret agent look." Buffy said half teasingly.

"Or the puffy shirt, pirate-slash-poet feel. Sensitive yet manly…" Willow said picturing Xander in said outfit.

"Now you’re getting a little renaissance fair on me."

"It’s a fine line." Buffy puts in as Giles watches his children go with an ironic smile.

"The earth is definitely doomed." Giles says to himself as he heads off to the car to join Wood and Wes.

Buffy, Xander and Willow walk silently together side-by-side. Willow steels herself, then breaks off and heads to the bus. A little further along, Xander takes Buffy’s hand and squeezes it, then he get's into Angel's limo. Alone once more, Buffy takes one last look at the night sky and gets on the bus with her friends.

The big battle starts in the next chapter stay tuned.

-Keller

Oh, I just thought about what you were asking. The entire story with the exception of the prologue and the first chapter take place during the last four episodes of buffy. but since Jesse showed up it basically made the episodes either last longer or for mini episodes to occur before the next ep.

sorry if I confused you with my explaination.

Chapter 10
The Trinity


Angel, Gunn, and Xander walk down the dark corridors of the vineyard looking for Caleb. Hearing his voice behind a door, they stop and listen in. Angel prepares to kick the door open, but then he hears Caleb say his name.

"What kind of fella' calls himself Angel?" Caleb asked someone as he opened the door.

"I don't know, the ladies seem to like it." Angel said as he punched Caleb in the face. The punch sent Caleb flying into some wine barrels. Bursting them on impact.

"Nice punch Deadboy." Gunn said as he hefted his homemade axe on his shoulder. At Angel's glare he relented. "Just messin' with you dawg."

"Get up Caleb!" Buffy/The First shouted. With that Caleb slowly stood up rubbing his jaw.

"You deal with them. I'm going to awaken the dead and get the rest of the WolfBlades." Buffy/The First said as she blinked away. Leaving Caleb, Angel, Xander and Gunn in the room.

"Well now...." Caleb started in his southern drawl. "Xander I see you came by so I could finish the job?" he said as he made an eye gouging motion with his thumb.

"Not fucking likely." Xander mutters as he lifts his sword.

"Oh and look you brought some new members to hear my sermon." Caleb said as he started to walk closer to Gunn and Angel.

"Sorry padre. I'm not much on religion." Angel says as he vamps out and charges Caleb. Unseen by them, bringers come out of the shadows.

***
Restview Cemetary

Buffy/The First stood over the graves of the dead chanting a spell in latin. To it's delight, heads and arms started to pop out of the ground.

"Yes, rise and do my bidding." she said as one of her soldiers of the dead walked over to her. Only to fall to the ground a moment later, from a gunshot wound to the head.

Turning she saw Wesley with a shotgun in hand.

"Sorry to interrupt." Wes said as Giles and Principal Wood run up behind him. "But I think the dead need their sleep." he quipped as he cocked his gun.

"You!" Buffy/First growled pointing at Giles. "You're supposed to be dead."

"Well you know what they say about the hellmouth." Giles said as he lifted up a sword of his own. "No one ever stays dead."

Without a word the First blinked out of existance. As she left more of the dead started to rise and a wolf's howl could be heard.

***

Buffy/The First went down into the basement of the Sunnydale highschool, with the purpose of opening up the Hellmouth. Only when she got there she saw that it was already open and Jesse was standing there smiling at her.

"What took you so long?" Jesse quips as she dives into the hole. Running down the stairs she lifted up her bag (the one with the plasma grenades in them, that she came to this time with.) and threw it over the vast chasm.

"Willow now!" she yelled as the bag fell into the hand of a Turok-han. Willow produced red and orange fireballs in her hands and threw them at the bag.

"Everybody get down!" Buffy yelled as the bag exploded. As the dust settled they looked down in the chasm.


As they do the horde of raging Turok-han surge up and over the edge of the chasm toward Buffy, Faith, Spike, Jesse and the team of newly called Vampire Slayers. The explosives didn't put much of a dent in the vast number of Uber-vamps.

"These guys are dust." Vi says with all confidence.

Spike, Faith, Jesse and Buffy brace themselves as the first wave leaps up over the edge and attacks. They fight like they never have before, almost as if Jesse, Willow, and Giles spell has enhanced their already-formidable strength in addition to calling all the potentials to Slayerhood.

***
"Gunn, get down!" Angel yells. As he does Angel throws a dagger that kills a bringer that was behind Gunn. As Angel turned around he was met with a fist to the face by Caleb, that sent him to the ground.

"Now, now, now.." Caleb softly chided. "I hate to see the lord's work interrupted." he quips as he kicks Angel in the ribs. As he tries to kick him again, he get's stabbed threw the back.

With wide eye's Caleb falls to the ground bleeding purfusely. As he does Xander stands over his lifeless body, with a grin.

"Damn. I never thought killing a preacher would feel this good." He quips to Angel, extending his hand. Just as he was leaning down to help him up a bringer tackled him to the ground.

***
Wood and Giles brace themselves as a rampaging horde of Zombies race around the corner of the cemetary and attack. Luckily for them The First didn't get to co
