4. Chapter Four - New Arrivals, Old Enemies by Nemo [Reviews - 16] (3124 words)
Since I ran out of reasons for Spike to not kill Buffy I decided it was time to take it to Season 2. Following chapters is my version of ”School Hard” written by David Greenwalt, props to him. There is going to be a lot of original dialogue in this chapter (sorry about that), but I promise the story is gonna take another turn than in the show. I also have to warn you that both Angel and Drusilla is going to make an appearance, but I promise I will get rid of them as soon as I can and there will be some kind of Spuffy eventually.


Huge thanks to Luxferi for betaing this, it wouldn't be readable without your help

So, we're leaving "School hard" finally, that last chap was driving me crazy *lol* It's gonna be a bit AU from now on, I hope you're with me. Huge thanks to you Luxferi for the beta, and I think a line is yours in this one :P

7. Chapter Seven – The One She Wants by Nemo [Reviews - 14] (3284 words)
Sorry about the delay, school's been keeping me busy, and this was a hard chapter to write. I have to warn you: this chapter is marked B/A - nothing graphic though. As always: thanks to my beta Luxferi.

8. Chapter Eight – The Return to Innocence Lost by Nemo [Reviews - 18] (3007 words)
So sorry about the lack of updates, guys. School's been killing me. Anyway, enough excuses and on to the fic: some stuff taken from the episode "Surprise" written by Marti Noxon, I do not own it. The chapter title happens to be the same as a great song by Ursula Rucker/The Roots, I don't own that one either. As always, huge thanks to my beta Luxferi!

9. Chapter Nine – Weird by Nemo [Reviews - 10] (3229 words)

10. Chapter Ten – Shattered Trust by Nemo [Reviews - 10] (3419 words)

15. Chapter Fifteen - The Importance of Being Sorry by Nemo [Reviews - 6] (3376 words)
As you might have noticed the Buffy in this story is less confident in her slayerhood than in the show and still green with her calling. I just wanted to point this out, it might explain her (re)actions in this chapter better.

A huge thank you to my reviewers and my lovely beta Luxferi! And to everyone who left a comment on my lj - thanks for making me feel so welcome! *hugs*

Thanks to my lovely betas Luxferi and Amarysso. *hugs both*

If this one's boring: consider that I wrote most of it on MIA after having no sleep in 24 hours...

If the beginning of this chap makes you confused, you probably missed my last update after a 3 month hiatus. I suggest you go back to read chap 19 first :)
