I had left Xander and Anya behind and had charged them with the task of burying the body of Dawn, and felt absolutely no remorse about it. In fact, as I stopped at an ATM, driving Riley's SUV, it oput a smile on my face. What? Did Xander and Anya actually, after they had...ripped me away from heaven, using dark magic's, of course, which seemed to ( Read more... )

I adjusted my tuxedo and chaperoned the evening away, or at least the early part of it. I had a few of the finger sandwiches to keep my stomach satiated. I couldn't imagine what the draw..what the attraction was for these youthes at events like this. The prom was one event that I could make an exception for, surely, but this homecoming dance and ( Read more... )

I inspected my appearance in the mirror one final time. I had no problem with cladding myself in a suit. I did it virtually everyday, as it were, only this one wasn't of a tweed fabric. I certainly wasn't trying to make myself look five years younger, either, just in the off-chance that I might happen to meet someone of my own age or thereabouts at ( Read more... )

The day was spent for the most part, in the library. Oz and Willow never went to classes and quite unexpectedly, Xander and Faith never showed up in the library. We left, briefly, mind you, to get out of here when commadant Snyder came around. Neither Buffy nor Oz had missed homeroom, so they were considered present today and would be able to ( Read more... )

Waking up, like...like I had in a confined space was demoralizing, crushing, irritating and most annoying.

The door opened and I fell out onto the floor below, ( Read more... )

I had issues all over the world to deal with. I had slayers in six continents fighting demons and I had to be...be apprised of every situation because, unfortunately, at the moment, we didn't have the watchers needed to guide all of the slayers. Being the head of the Watcher's Council, I had to be sure to train enough watchers over the coming years ( Read more... )

I slept very minimally during the night. Needless to say, there was little that could be done about that with all that had transpired around us. The news that Angel was responsible for it all, or should I say, Angelus, as it were, only made an incredibly tumultuous set of circumstances even more difficult. Willow's death was crushing and the fact ( Read more... )

It had been an excruciating night. Willow's death had turned things around, and the cause of her death had been part of that reason. Buffy, Cordelia and Xander had been out hunting for Angelus, who's name, chilled me and brought back memories when I..I had first heard it, which of course, I repressed, for there were certainly other things that ( Read more... )
