Love this story so far. Just started reading it and had to download it since I am on dial-up.

Author's Response: Hapy to hear it. Welcome. I hope you will continue to enjoy it. Thanks.

Summary: Goes completely off canon of Season 2: After a chain of devastating events that caused Buffy to emotionally spiral downward, she alienates herself from her friends and Watcher to live in her mother's house as a very lonely and bitter Slayer. Meanwhile, Drusilla's death in Prague left her broken childe, desperately seeking a mate who will forever love him.
One night he comes upon a young girl in Sunnydale but will he still want her after discovering her true identity as The Slayer? What happens when they meet and will the new Big Bad drive them apart or strengthen their bond further? NOTE: The character for the big bad is not from the original series at all.

This tale is so delicious. I love the violence that "Mother" is able to dish out to those who deserve it. More Xander smacking would be "of the good." Teeheehee

Thank you so much for the update. I had some suggestions for Angelus but I think yours are better.

This tale is so terrific and I'm always thrilled to find an update!

Summary: Takes place in 1863. (Buffy is a human). Buffy decides to take a stroll to get away from her fathers boring party. While she's out she gets kidnapped by our favorite Arelius member. But her blood is different: she's a Queen Vampire. It's not just a past fic, it's in the future too. It just shows Buffy differently than the series did.

I am loving this tale of dragons and demons, etc. Will the Slayers actually be able to help in t his world or will the boss dragon just send them home to take care of their own business? More story please.

Have I told you yet how fab this tale is? Love the dragons and am impressed with Spike giving Buffy some trouble. She earned it and hopefully will learn to appreciate him. Gods know I do.

Author's Response: Thank you so much! I'm glad you like it. :) Yeah, Buffy does deserve some trouble for all of the stunts she pulled. (both on the show and in this fic.) I just figured it was time Spike didn't just give into her.
