Chapter 25


As the gang approached the Mansion that Spike and his minions lived in, Buffy sensed that her mother was already there, as well as Angel. Running past Spike, she ran through the front door of the mansion and right to where her mother was sitting in the living room. “Mommy!”


Holding her arms out to her daughter, Joyce said “Its alright sweetheart, we are going to keep you safe.”


As the rest of the gang came into the living room. Jenny said “that is right, I am going to get right on with the protection spell, I left the stuff, I would need here last time we were all here.”


“Oh do you want some help?” Willow asked, since she was interested in magic, but to afraid to try anything.


“Sure, if you want to help, come on then Willow.” Jenny said as she started to make her way to her room she used at Spike’s place.

Sitting down in his chair, Spike asked Dalton, “So have we heard anything more?”


“The Councils plane should be touching down just before sunset.” Dalton informed Spike, before he continued. I have also mapped where the closest house of Aurelius’s are.”


“Good let me see that.” Spike said reaching out his hand to take the paper.


As Spike started to look at the map, Angel got up from his spot on one of the couches and went to look at it over his shoulder.


“Do you mind if maybe we took it to the table and had a look at it all together?” Giles asked wondering where the locations were and what would be the best one to go too.


“I see the Watcher wants to know where all the large houses of our line are.” Spike said to everyone, before turning to Dalton, “Put out a distress call to all the houses in the areas you have mapped out, make it clear we will be travelling with humans under out protection.” Then he got up from the chair he was sitting in and walked over to the table and put the map down on it.


As Angel and Giles followed him to the table, Spike said to the others, “I don’t want anyone in the main room, as soon as we pick a place we will be going.”

10 minutes later, Jenny came back into the main part of the house and said to them, “I have protected the house, is there anything else you would like me to do?”


“Could you maybe stay with the children?” Giles asked her looking up from the map.


“Alright let me know if I can be of any help.” She said as she started to leave the room.


“I am not sure what way you want to go, but I would say the LA one is to close.” Giles told both Angel and Spike.


“I was thinking of going up towards Canada.” Spike told them.


“That sounds good, not sure if going into Mexico would be wise, I don’t think we have any houses there.” Angel pointed out.


“We don’t that I know of.” Spike replied to Angel.


“So that leaves, Santa Barbara, then.” Giles pointed out.


“Yes it will be a bit of a drive but I am sure we can make it.” Spike said to the 3 assembled with him at the dining room table.


“We can do it if we leave soon,” Angel said.


“Alright then lets pack the cars.” Spike said before leaving the room.

In the back of the house were all his minions, as he walked into the room. He barked out an order for them, “Line up and take your orders.”


Falling in line, in front of their master they stood and waited for their orders. “Alright we have decided to go to the Santa Barbara house. That means we must leave at once, have you contacted that house?” Spike then asked Dalton.


After Dalton nodded his head, Spike continued. “My men the ones that have travelled the world with me will be going, everyone else is going to stay here and keep me up on what is happening here. Is that clear?”

A course of Yes master ran through the air.


“Right then pack up the cars.” Spike ordered as he left the room.

As he walked into his room, he shared with his mate, Dru said to him, “The big bad men are coming to take her and you away.”


“Yes my luv, they are but we will not allow it.” Spike said as he went up and put his arms around his Sire/Mate.


“I know you won’t, my Spike.” Dru cooed to him.


“We must leave at once, so we are all going to be meeting in the main room. I will then give driving orders of who is going with whom.” Spike informed his mate.


“We will keep her safe.” Dru told him honestly.


“I know my Princess, I know, now lets go back to the main room.” Spike said as he took her hand in his, and started to leave the room.


_____________________________________________________________________________________


Once everyone was back in the main room, Spike told them all where they were going. “We have decided to go to the Santa Barbara house, it is a distance but it is do able. So here is how it is going to go. I will have Dru and Buffy with me, followed by Angel, Joyce, Giles and Dalton. The rest of you will fill in the remaining cars, and Jenny will be with the last crew, she has the strongest magic that can hold them all off. Now everyone get what we need so we can leave.”


Spike then walked out of the room and back to his bedroom with Dru, together they threw the rest of their stuff in a bag and left the room.

As all the cars were packed and ready to leave, Spike gave one final order, “Stay close and don’t die.” Then he got in his car and drove away.

Just after Sunset, that night, Quentin Travers, entered the library with the wet team. “So where is Mr. Giles and his Slayer? Wesley”


“I don’t know, the Vampire, William the Bloody came in and announced what was going to happen, he then left with Miss Summer, Mr. Giles and all her friends. Right after they left I called Faith to start a search for them. We have been unable to find any of them.” Wesley told Quentin.


“Well we will just have to search a little harder, and it is almost sunset, so I would imagine one of them would have to feed.” Quentin told Wesley.


“I don’t think he has been feeding, after seeing what I saw today, I believe he has been in Sunnydale for a while, and Mr. Giles and Buffy knew about it.” Wesley informed the head of the Watcher’s Council.


“Very well, what do you suggest?” Quentin asked.


“We continue to search some time one of them is going to have to leave.” Wesley told him.


“Then we shall search.” Quentin said.
