Still a good story, but there are a number of plot holes in this chapter:
1) Clem says he has never heard of Jansen, but at the end of chapter 10, Jansen's minion had talked to Clem about him when Clem was at his friend Aaron's apartment. Clem ran to the crypt in chapter
11 to tell Spike and Buffy.
2) Anya says that "no earth magic" affects Jansen, but then Willow, along with Tara and Anya, are able to use earth magic against him. Would have been better to say that he is *nearly* impervious to earth magic rather than entirely unaffected. I get that you're showing that Willow has become stronger than even Anya could predict, but then that should be made clear before Willow succeeds... either Anya, Tara or Willow should explain that what they're doing (or what they just did) will make them able to override Jansen's protection from earth magic, or that they're using Salano magic or something.
3) Clem shouldn't be the one telling Xander how much Giles hates Spike... Clem wasn't even at the Magic Box, Xander knows better than Clem does at this point in the story.

Other than those little things, the story is really good... glad Jansen's dead.

I'm still reading :)
It's good to see them so happy in these difficult times. At last they have themselves (and Buffy's family). Wanting to survive is a good first step (because if you have given up hope when you're starting a fight... that's bad and will possible kill you anyway). They will have difficulties enough fighting an army.
Dawn isn't answering her cell phone? ThAt had me worried too.
I'm glad Joyce convinced Willow and Tara to help. Anya was an unexpected bonus (wanting to help to). Didn't expect Xander to help again. So it's only Giles that won't help, stupid watcher.
Ack.. too late, Buffy and Spike are caught. But names have powers. And giving his name to them was his downfall. But only thanks to Anya because she knew who Jansen of Salano was. :)
Awe :) But with the help of the Scoobies they won! Good ending of that chapter.
Looking forward to the next one (the last one if I understand correctly?) and what's the what about Giles (the truth behind Spike killing his father).

Author's Response: hello CK, how are you sweetie. The next chapter will be the last, and I will answer all the questions then. We also have to make sure that Willow doesn't stay on the dark side of magic too....

Thank god for the Scoobies! They pulled through!! I like it when they pull through. Giles is an idiot though. Though I do realize he thinks Spike killed his father, he shouldn't have sacrificed Buffy's feelings or possible her life because of that. Hopefully that really is the end of Jansen.

Author's Response: hello my sweet. They all rallied in the end, but we have some loose ends to sort out now. Will Giles get the real answers to his questions, and will Tara and Buffy be able to bring Willow back from the brink - watch out for an update soon - I promise

Author's Response: Hi Sarah, please accept my apologies for not updating before now, and I hope this chapter made up for it. Soon it will be just the two of them - I promise - but we might need to fix Willow first......
