O_o That was another *very* difficult chapter to read. I know I was warned, but it was still disturbing and made my tummy hurt. Hank = Eeeeevil.

But thank God the nightmare and physical suffering are over for all of them (I wish poor Faith and Percy hadn't had to die so horribly), and Hank will hopefully be punished to the fullest extent of the law. Too bad they don't hang people anymore, Hank deserves something horrible like that. Poor Buffy will be haunted forever, but she's lucky to have a man who loves her to help her through the rough emotional times ahead.

*Hugs*

well, I'm writting the review only the other day after reading this chapter, first of all because after reading it I was REALLY shocked and trembling and terrified.
You did a fantastic job just portraing it all so thoroughly. Secondly, the only words that came after reading were of the uncensored kind.
But I really wanted to write something after reading this, I just took sometime to shake away the shock.
Thank you a lot

Author's Response: I understand, and thank you for leaving a review. I'm sure you'll find the rest of the story much more pleasant. :) I only have five more chapters to go, and one of them is almost finished at the moment.

Ok, I feel sick right now. Not because I don't like this but because of the absolute horror you're portraying here. How can Buffy ever get over this? This can'r be easy to write. Please give Buffy a break from now on! Still loving this story.

Author's Response: Oh, you don't need to worry about any more graphic torture scenes or anything. It took a lot out of me to write that. I have a hard time even reading over it. Things will take a little while to be fluffy because she's dealing with a lot, but there won't be anymore major angst. Thank you very much for following the story thus far.

k wow, the story How to save a life took a sickening turn...im not saying i don't like it, just didn't see it coming...must have been hard for you to write that. but job well done, you made hank into a real monster, and since it was necessary for this fic i congratulate you, and it was realistic since people don't usually make it out of situations like that.
Nothing can ever be the same after something like that, thank goodness she has someone like Spike who will fight everyday to make her better.
