NICE change from the series with Buffy wearing the amulet - and it is so good to have Tara still working with Willow.

Author's Response: Thank you! I just thought that since in this world she *knew* what was waiting for them in the Hellmouth that she would've been more tempted to take the extra power from the Shadowmen and that would've made her able to wear it. And of course, Spike would not just leave her there - no way. Tara's death was so heartbreaking, that was just something I couldn't do again. Glad you're enjoying the changes!

I like your ending better, though, Angel bringing the Amulet needs to be pondered by all. So TFE tried to get the last word in this defeat, well, being incorporial, it would benefit all to have this evil essence documented so that others would be wise to taunting in the form of dead persons. Does the first evil have a twin...the first good? Boggles the mind, but I'm heading off a crazy direction. LOL! Back to your story, very entertaining with many twists and turns. Look forward to more.

Author's Response: Trust me, Spike is still pondering Angel bringing the Amulet . . . The First Good - now there's a thought. It would make sense, wouldn't it - balance in the universe . . . and all that, right? Your mind seems to do what mine does . . .goes off on a walk-about sometimes and just "la-la-la" and then, finally, hopefully . .comes back around to where it was headed before! LOL! I'm really glad you're liking the story! More to come! TFE actually isn't quite done yet .. . {{drum roll}} who did we miss? Thanks so much for reading and posting!! I appreciate it! sooooo very much!! -Passion4Spike 2010.04.28
