Summary: set 4 years after season 6 (season 7 did not happen). Spike did not return to SunnyDale after his trip to Africa. Now, in NYC, Spike reunites with someone he never expected to see again. With a new (or perhaps not so new) evil on the rise Spike is thrown into a world of deceit; a world where everything is not quite as it seems. Can evil be forgiven? Even if it can ... should it?

I have had this story idea banging around my head for…man…about a year, and now its decided to come out and play : ) I am not sure how long this will be, but I have definite ideas for how I want this to go…but it’ll really depend if anyone likes this. I may think it’s a good story…but each to their own. And feedback is extremely important to me…as to any writer. Anyways, I hope you enjoy this.

I really didn't expect to post this so soon. I can't promise the next chp will be so quick... but the wonderful reviews made me want to get this out asap! Thank you so much for your kind words and encouragement....I am so happy some people actually like this fic. I'd like to take a moment to comment on my take of Xander in this fic. Xander, in the series, really pissed me off. I saw such potential with his character...but he continually disappointed me. I guess this is in reaction to that, not that I'm saying it'll always be roses...everyone has flaws...but yes. That's all I have to say on that for right now. So please read! And review if the fancy strikes you!
3. Chapter Three by LadyEnchanted [Reviews - 8] (2433 words)
Yes! I finally figured out how to work italics!! Yay me! I edited the first two chapters where italics were supposed to be...and I think it adds to the story, personally. But yes, I get a bit overexcited about simple things. To everyone who's been reveiwing: I love you all! Really, really I do!!! To everyone: I hope you enjoy this chapter!
