oooo, the suspense is killing me! How in the world are they gonna get away from evil Willow? I certainly hope someone around here has a plan for escape!! And then, a plan to kick Riley's butt. LOL!

Author's Response: I think I'll scrap what I had planned for the rest of the story and just have them go home and kick Riley's ass LOL Ah, that'd be sweet... ;) Well, maybe I'll just have Spike have a fantasy of kicking Riley butt lol You know Spike would enjoy that

Things don't look too good for Buffy & Spike at the moment, but they're a couple of tough mofo's, if anyone can make it out of there, it's them :)

Thanks so much for the review! *huggggles*

My, those two are sure in a rough place right now. I'm glad that they at least got to touch the tip of their emotional ice burg, though I know they have many more places to go regarding their feelings. And I love all of the ways they are trying to get out still, even if they haven't succeeded. Any day now. Not too much story left before it would all be over, and I know you're not going to let it end that way. Update soon! Please...

Author's Response: I do tend to put our heroes through really rough times lol But one thing I always do in my stories, is reward the readers for having to read about sad and bad things lol I promise that the story will have a lighter tone coming soon :)

FFT Part 1 won't be over immediately after the showdown with the witch. There will be a few more chapters after that, so stay tuned :D

Thanks for reading and reviewing, Niori! Mmm yummy review *gobbles* heehee

Author's Response: lol Oops, I meant "Thanks for reading and reviewing, BuffyRat!" lol That's what happens when I respond to several reviews in one sitting *hides* Sorry, BuffyRat! The review was still delicious :P

Damn. And here I was thinking that the witch would meet her end. Since that was how she died in the fairy tale, I thought that she'd finally bite the dust. I'm out of potential ideas on how to get out. Not looking good (though, since this is part one I'm gonna go on a limb and say they eventually do get away- they better hurry too, since she wants to eat Spike tomorrow. Which is demented in my opinion- why would you want to marr the entire Spike package?)
Riley is a douche. I've probably said it before, but I feel the need to repeat it. I'm really hoping some of the hot scenes show up in the book, just so we can havbe the pleasure of his head exploding. That plus Anya's running commentary would do the trick.
I'm shocked that buffy made the first move. She's usually overboard denial girl. Well, she is sorrta in denial with looking for an explanation (I've never understood what's to explain- who doesn't want the sexiness that is Spike?).
Also nice to see her actually think for a change and not jump into the Spike is oh so bad adn tried to bite me the minute he had a chance. I like your Buffy- she uses her brain.
Can't wait for more.

Author's Response: I know it was really evil of me not to have Buffy kill the witch >:D But I do have a plan lol And I agree, the witch has to be totally insane to want to mar Spike's beauty in any way. Eating him up should be the furthest thing from any female's mind... in a literal sense, that is :P

lol It would be great if Riley's head exploded! That'd be one problem solved heehee There *will* be pictures in the book that cause some raised eyebrows (tho I can't promise actual exploding heads) hehehe

Buffy is becoming less dumb lol She's hanging onto some denial, but what she can't deny is that she does care about and needs Spike. Whether it's her own emotions or the Unari are making her feel it - she still *does* feel it right now. I know, she shouldn't need any excuse other than 'he's smokin hot!' lol And I enjoyed writing that part about her not jumping to the conclusion that Spike got zapped because he'd wanted to hurt her. Hooray, she actually learned from her similar past mistakes! lol

Thanks so much for the delicious review, Niori! *hugs & smooches*

Wow !!What a fantastic chappie, Pagan! I love the Spuffy kissage. And it's nice to see that Buffy is admitting she has feelings for him, and Spike is still refusing her blood. Awww. He's so honorable and sweet.
The visual of Witchiepoo chopping up Spike into pieces until he dusts was so horrifying. Ugh, I hate that bitch. I don't know how they'll get out of this, you've done an excellent job conveying the helplessness, cause I can't think of what they can do to escape.

Riley is really losing what's left of his mind isn't he? He's a real jerk. I never liked him and I HATED him when he staked Spike with the plastic stake. Big, giant stupid bully! I hope he sees alot of Spuffyness in the book and they all laff at his stupidness, and Anya makes fun of his penis again. lol

I loved it sweetie, can't wait to see the conclusion. I hope you post soon. *huggles and lurves*

Author's Response: Thanks, AMI! :D I loved having Buffy tell Spike about her feelings, and the real kissage was fun too :P Spike is rediscovering his honorable and selfless side thanks to his feelings for Buffy. I don't think he would've batted an eye if it was Harmony he was asked to drain, for example lol But we all know that Spike and Buffy are meant for each other :D

I'm so glad and relieved that you don't think I've gone overboard with the helplessness lol But it's almost at an end - yay! There will be a few more chapters after the showdown, so it won't be over just yet ;)

Oh, Riley and the plastic stake... that made me SO mad. I actually gasped and said "Nooo!" when I saw that for the first time lol I'm gonna make him pay for that in my own way *evil laughter* Yes, he's losing his shit lol He can't handle having no control, and knowing deep down that there really is an attraction between Buffy and Spike. He'll see some things that ain't gonna help his mental state one bit :P heehee Anya can always be counted on to have no tact :D

Thanks for your awesome review, sweetie! *huggs & smooches*

Oh kissing :))
Didn't expect Buffy to go to Spike.
I'm glad she was still thinking and not assuming Spike got hurt because he wanted to bite her.
And even if these two got nearer they still are not nearer to get away. It got worse after Spike's try to attack.
*sigh* And there I hoped Buffy would be able to trick the witch. No such luck.
Riley? He's bad news too. And the others don't suspect a thing.
Looking forward to more.

Author's Response: :P I thought I'd have Buffy finally just give in and say the things she's wanted to - and have some real kissin lol And she actually learned from her mistakes by not assuming Spike had gotten a shock from trying to bite her - it's a miracle! lol

Riley's an unstable a*hole lol And he's definitely bad news. The others will be worried about him, but not see how bad it really is.

Thanks for reading & reviewing, ck! :D *smoochies*
