Author's Chapter Notes:
Thank you for the reviews and support!!
Chapter 7

Buffy’s head lay on Spike’s leg, her eyes drifting open and closed, content that they got out of the factory in time. The drove all day and now moving into the night.

Giles and Xander kicked the door open and stepped through only to be surprised by dozens of Spike’s minions. Willow stepped through behind them, her eyes widened with surprise.

The fight was fierce and short. With memory of his soldier-ness and Giles’s Watcher skills, they disposed of over half the minions within minutes. Spike held Buffy back in the shadows, unwilling to risk her safety. “They’re here to stake you, love.”

“But they are killing them, I can’t just stand here. I thought you brought me out to fight,” Buffy said.

“Relax, and just watch. Look at how they go after the humans with a blind eye. Then poof and they are gone. No mortal wound, just dust.” Spike watched as two more minions crumbled to dust. “Damn it! Should have known that they were no good. Come on.” Spike grabbed Buffy hand and tugged her towards the back.

He helped her slide into his old black De Soto car and started it up. They broke through the protective garage and sped down the street. Buffy looked back in time to watch her ex-Watcher and best friends come out in the sunlight, hunting her.

“Where are we going?” Buffy asked.

Spike’s hand fell to her head, stroking her hair. “Away, don’t know. Maybe back to Europe. We’ll be lucky if your Watcher hasn’t already contacted the Council of Wankers. I bet they’ll send a squad to good old Sunnyhell to hunt you down. Bet Gramps will get a good seeing to.”

“So anywhere but there?”

Spike lit a cigarette and opened the window to flick the ashes out. “Seems about right.”

“Is this what they mean by riding off into the sunset?” Buffy sat up in the front seat, still close to Spike.

“You mean moonlight,” Spike smirked.

Buffy slapped his chest and then leaned over. “Dork.”

“You love me for it.” Spike bit his tongue the moment the phrase fell off his lips.

“Yeah, yeah.” Buffy smiled and leaned over to whisper, “I do.”

The End
a/n: So I hope you all enjoyed it. I would like to thank my LJ Friendlies: FacingtheSun, starshinebrt18 and schehrezade_1. Ladies, you did a terrific job in helping me structure the main event. Also a big thanks to bethgirl with a different outlook (not hearing me whine day in and day out about the characters) you helped pick apart some weaker parts. And always: Mercy my ever present beta, you mean the world to me.

Not happy with the ending? And for those rooting for Angelus to rear his forehead, my original storyline had Angel turning into Angelus. After I began writing, I realized that with RL time constraints, I needed to cut out that story arc. So those that want to know what comes next? Dru makes Angel very happy and Angelus appears. They decide to follow Buffy and Spike across the country. The Council decides to go after Buffy, but run into Angelus first. Angelus obliterates most of the Council as both are trailing after Buffy and Spike. Angelus and Dru catch up to the duo and decide to finish off the council. Giles and Joyce go to England to visit Travers, Buffy has her first meeting with her mom and for some reason doesn't want to kill her. She orders her mom off limits for feeding and killing. Spike is mad at Giles for trying to kill Buffy in Sunnydale and decides Angelus and him should exact revenge. Angelus thinks that if he gets rid of Spike, he could have both Drusilla and Buffy so he tries to dust Spike as they hunt Giles. Spike escapes and Buffy realizes Angelus' plan. Drusilla also realizes what Angelus wanted and decides to ban together with Buffy and Spike to teach Angel a lesson. *lol, see why I counldn't continue this with all the WiPs I have? *

Still not happy with it? OK... I challenge you via Bloodshedverse Challenge 108

I challenge YOU to complete Killer Instinct, a response to Challenge 42. Continue my take and continue it with the Council coming after Buffy. Use my Killer Instinct as a set up for what is to come: Angelus Returns.

Must haves:
1. Spuffy romance
2. Same characters; same canon characteristics i.e. don't make Willow uber-Witch
3. Buffy and Spike leaving Sunnydale
4. Angelus shows up
5. Dru is sympathetic to Buffy & Spike relationship
6. The council comes after Buffy (& Spike)

Can haves:
1. Joyce, Rupert, Buffy, Spike, Angel(us), Drusilla, Willow and Xander plus anyone that didn't die in Killer Instinct.
2. Explain why Drusilla thinks Buffy is special (i.e. does she have a new power?)
3. Angelus testing the "boundaries" of Buffy/Spike relationship
4. Buffy kicking Angelus' ass

Can't haves:
1. Angelus/Buffy... no rape, no domination BS (Bull Sh*t)
2. Buffy killing Joyce

Come on... you know you want to do it....
