Okay, on a happy note, I liked this chapter rather a lot. The whole plane crash and Buffy desperately trying to get Spike out before the sun rises, he telling her to go... okay maybe a tiny little bit cliche, but still rather dramatic and romantic and I liked the way you wrote Spike a lot.

I gather Joy is still alive and send that message. Maybe one can really put her abandoning her kid down too madness through grief.

I wonder what circumstances have changed since Spike departed in England, and if Dru really is still alive.

Yikes, this chapter was full of danger and intrigue. Between the crash, caring for Aurora, Spike's dangerous predicament and the ploting Watchers Spike and Buffy certainly have their hands full. *bites nails* Great update as always!

Off for a week or two?!! No updates on this wonderful story? Oh...bugger. LOL. Have a great holiday hun. Look forward to more when you get back! Really love this fic.

Author's Response: Thank you! Back from Spain now but RL is biting my heels and there is Writercon coming up soon when I will be winging across the Atlantic to attend! But hope to update before then!

Madame, you are evil with a capital "E"!!! Leaving us hanging right at the moment when she's finally going to tell him the truth! Oh my goodness, but I love this story! I will be waiting eagerly for a new chapter to be posted so I can find out if she does tell him.(crossing fingers now)........In all seriousness, I do love your stories, and look forward to reading all of the creative scenarios you put our favourite duo in. You truly have a wonderful imagination. It's a lovely story and it is in my favourite genre, time-travel; so cudos to you......................Hmmmm, I do so hope, the newcomers with the pointy farm impliments are not hostile ::))

Author's Response: Yes, I am Eeeeevil! Seriously, it seemed the right place to break off. Next chapter coming along soon and thank you once again for all your extremely kind comments. It does make writing this story a pleasure.
