I'm glad Dawn went to check on Spike he needs someone to care for him as a friend right now. Spike isn't a guy who has many friends even in his old life William didn't really have anyone outside of Anne or Elizabeth. Dawn makes a great little sister he never had to him. The others are still arguing between themselves always trying to do what they think is best for Buffy of they took notice they might see shes hiding away from everyone right now. Angel coming or not coming to town will stir up a lot of things and it is driving me crazy till you post more.

Author's Response: I always felt so sorry for Spike on the series. He was such a social creature; he hated being alone. But he had almost no one. Thanks for the review. :-)

As usual. Perfect chapter. As I said in a previous review today, I loved the interaction between Dawn and Spike.

But I´ve been thinking a lot about Buffy. I think we all want her to run over to Spikes arms. Tell him that she loves him and live happily ever after.... Yea.... I don´t think you´re going to make it so easy for us, poor readers, he, he.

The thing is, right now, she´s in shock. She just lost William, and she knows she´s never going to see her William again. For her, Spike is an annoying vampire with a chip in his head who had an obsession with her....

Just think about it. Last time she saw Spike, was when she revoked his invitation, and in this story , he never got the chance to prove his love for her and Dawn, like in Intervention. So if we think about it, she really doesn´t know what she´s going to meet, and even though she knows he remembered and recognized the bracelet, he still left the house with a bang... So I don´t think she knows what to expect.

Remember she has the Idea that vampires are evil monster without a soul... And Spike doesn´t have a soul.... (As a reader of this story, I know that William and Spike are very alike. But she doesn´t) . So I really hope that when they meet again, either if she goes to his crypt, or he goes and visits her, that he gets the chance to show some of the William he still has inside, angry William maybe, but William nevertheless.

Please, please, be kind to both of them, a little bit, let them have something.... good. and please update soon!!!!!!!




Author's Response: Confusion is a good word for what Buffy is feeling right now. She's been through a lot in a short period of time, and it's going to take her a while to get her bearings. How this affects Spike (and the incoming Angel) remains to be seen. Thanks for the review! :-)

I was sad to hear that people didn't like Part II. I thought it was brilliant: violent, dark, sinister. Everything I always imagined Spike's past to be and more. I didn't think that your story could get better well, I'm wrong, so darn wrong and so happy about it. So thank you for sharing and I'll look forward for your next updates.
cheers

Author's Response: Thank you so much for telling me you enjoyed Part II! I understand that it was hard for some people to get through, being, as you said, very dark and violent. But it's important in the third part of the story to know exactly what Spike's been through over the years, in order to understand some of his actions. Thank you so much for the review! :-)

Yes!!!! Don't take that bracelet off Buffy!!!
I wonder if Angel will ask about it since it is a antique.
Really a great story I hang on everyword and always hate to see the new update end. I did go and read the new parts added and I ended up reading the whole thing all over again the new stuff really shows William and Elizabeths thoughtfulness to each other and makes their romance fuller. I loved it.
Please keep on the writing spree I'm loving it.

Author's Response: It's great to know that you enjoyed the revisions. I kind of hated to tinker with the chapters this late in the game, but I've never really been satisfied with the way the story begins ... most especially with chapters 6 - 8. I'm glad you liked the changes and the new chapter. Thanks so much for the review! :-)

Hate it when Willow interferes and does what SHE thinks is best. Poor Buffy. I hope she and Spike talk soon.

Author's Response: To tell you the truth, I hate that too; but it seems intrinsic to her personality. Buffy and Spike will speak soon, I promise. I hope you continue to read and review. :-)

Oh oh oh! this made my lunchhour! So glad you had Dawn go check in over at Spikes place. Your exactly on with how you made Xander and Willow and Anya react their conversation was right on for that time frame. I was sort of put off with the idea of Angel but it will or could be a very cool thing. Spike might see that in the past when he was alive she tried to protect him from being rurned o find out that night she go beat up it was Angel and Dru behind it. Really a lot of cool ways this whole thing can go I cannot wait till your next update.

Author's Response: I think a lot of people feel a little uneasy about Angel coming into the mix, and I definitely understand why. I just hope I can write it in a way that makes everyone - well, if not happy, then at least comfortable in the knowledge that it's necessary to the plot. Thanks so much for the review. :-)

Hell dimensions? Willow who wears a petticoat in a hell dimensions? Fine a corset sure is a thing from hell but come on witchy woman wake up and smell the insense!

Maybe Angel is only coming out a sense of duty but if Spike seems him there now with everything that has just happened with Buffy in the room it will be explosive!

Alright I just had a fan-girl moment there Yes! Bring Angel to town!!! I wanna see Spike see him talking sor standing next to Buffy and him losing it a little and Buffy having to break it apart.

Bring On Angel!!!!!



Author's Response: Yay! At last, someone says to bring in Angel rather than have him die in a horrible fiery plane crash (I'm kidding, of course, lol). But I am very glad that you're looking forward to the next chapter. Thank you for reviewing! :-)

Willow calling Angel for a cup of sugar is not even a given! Ok I had to vent a little it is my William defense side peaking thru. I got a overwhelming vibe that Buffy was sort of memorizing William in their love making. I loved the line best -Her eyes told him that he was hers - and his feirce sense of possession in making her his. Very intense and well written.


Author's Response: Thank you so much. I'm glad you're still enjoying the story! And defend William all you like; he totally needs the support. :-)

“Maybe she wasn’t so unhappy there. Maybe someone was really nice to her. Like, really nice,” Her voice choked then, as she added very softly, “Maybe she didn’t want to come home.”

Yes!!!! At least someone has the same thoughts my mind is screaming I wanted to hug Dawn for that. Please more soon I can hardly wait for more.

Author's Response: Dawn is a smart girl, isn't she? What Spike will do with that information, however, remains to be seen. Thanks so much for your review! :-)

This is all so good it is addicting! I think this story needs a place all on its own.
I did not get the Pedo part what was that from?
The romance you show in flash back is really beautiful in the caring and tenderness both W and E had for each other it give me hope they could get that back.

Author's Response: Dawn was teasing Spike by calling him a pedo (pedophile) because he told her to reach into his pocket for the money, but to steer clear of his manly bits. :-) It's so sweet of you to say that you think my story is that good. I really appreciate your feedback. :-D

I liked Spike being defensive when Dawn was asking him things and saying "Maybe what!" cause he is hanging by a bleedy teather right now and as much as Dawns questions hurt him it also gives him something to think on.
Willow Willow Willow...
I love you but girlfriend when you have a Angel impulse JUST SAY NO! Don't reach out and touch someone.
Giggles

Author's Response: lol. Willow always seems to reach out and touch the wrong people, doesn't she? Thanks so much for the review! :-)

Bravo! Every person who comes to this site needs to read this as like a rule!
I'm begging on bended kneee for more!

Author's Response: How incredibly nice of you to say. Thank you!!! I'm working on the next chapter now, and I hope to have it finished within the next few days. I hope you enjoy it when it comes. :-D

Lovely and so lovingly written I love your updates.

Author's Response: Thank you so much. That's very kind of you to say! :-)
