Hope you won't hate me for the following chapters. Because of killing Spike or Spike/other? *Off to the chapter to read.*

Yeah, definitely killing William (Spike). And the other thing coming too I guess.
Poor William - dying thinking Buffy will die too, that all will have been in vain. I wonder if (what) he'll remember when he is turned.

Author's Response: The whole having William murdered thing. *sheepish* But he's not dead... not really, so it's all better, right? Though they bth think the other is dead. :( Don't you worry about the 'other' thing... the only person William/Spike will ever love is Buffy and I'm not planning on anything graphic when it's not with each other. :) Just thought I'd put the warning just in case, since they will be some insinuations, not as much with Buffy as with Spike though. More tomorrow! :D You're such a lovely person for leaving me all those kind reviews, cordykitten... thank you!!! *hugs*

I do not sense Dru's action as that of evil more of doing what the powers truly want done. I can only hope that Buffy manages to at least get Ms. Bennett and wonder when the two shall meet up again.

Author's Response: You're right... it wasn't about her being evil, and I'll try to show more sides to both Dru and Darla. Hee... powers did want it done, in this case me. ;) Don't you worry, Ms. Bennett will get what she deserves in due time, sooner than Buffy and Spike will meet that's for sure. Thank you for the lovely review!!! :D
