Ok I know I didn't review the other chapters. The simple reason: I read all you had so far all at once . I reall y like this story it's got up and down and even a few twists. I can't wait to see if Ted gets what's comeing to him or if he'll get away with it all. And someone totally needs to slap Joyce. Update soon.

hope Ted gets beat up! He deserves it SOOO much. I'm assuming Ted has raped Buffy before, but I'm not exactly sure...has he? How long has this been going on? I'm SO GLAD Spike and Buffy are FINALLY TOGETHER!!! I hope to see more Spuffy! I've also been wondering....if Spike has wanted to kiss her all his life, why was he with Dru and why wasn't he more protective of Buffy? He didn't do anything even though he knew! Joyce is a HORRIBLE person. I don't want her to have a relationship with Buffy and Dawn. She doesn't deserve it! Great chapter! I'm glad they're out of that house for the time being! I can't wait to read more! UDPATE SOON PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!1

God! Several rays of light in hell! I've almost forgotten that it could exist ;)! The episode of the rape in the previous chapter... left me almost with tears. And burning with anger! Hope Ted will be found and arrested. Even if there are no real proofs of sexual assault, there are testimonies about the beating, and the word of Buffy and Dawn too. Jail first, Hell (the real Hell) later for Ted. Light comes in Buffy's mind too. The confrontation with Joyce, perfect! She says "egoist bitch"? She's too kind with her. Joyce deserves to be arrested and condemned too, for no assistance to endangered people, complicity. She has decided to not see what happened to her daughters. Light for Spike too: he has opened his eyes. AT LAST! Even if I'm afraid of one thing: a possible pregnancy for Buffy. I remember certain "lots of angst and not a happy ending!" in the resume... Well, I hope however this state of race will last, and that even with a sad end, they will know some hapiness... About my last (and long!) review in the chapter "Boulevard of broken dreams" and what I say about not understanding why Buffy decided to stay with Dawn, even if she was attacked by Ted, I have thought again about it. Dawn may have want to stay too, with Buffy and Joyce (who definitively doesn't deserve such love from her daughters), no matter the situation. And if you want to survive in hell, the only way may be to accept it, til you have the strenght to move on.
