This idea came to me early one morning after I considered one of my favorite eps. from "Buffy: The Vampire Slayer", namely: "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered" from Season Two. This is an Alternate Universe tale.

I tried to incorporate some dialogue from the episode but also some original dialogue and tried to put some of Buffy's thoughts into this. Please let me know what you think so far!

Disclaimer: I don’t own any dialogue from Marti Nixon’s wonderful episode, nor do I own any of Joss Whedon’s characters. Just setting the record straight. Please read & review.

3. Chapter 3 by mat528 [Reviews - 1] (2570 words)
A/N: Buffy gets in over her head when she decides to avail herself of Amy's magic; Xander and Cordelia say "good bye" to each other. After that, this goes AU. I was playing for laughs, since the ep. is supposed to be funny. Please read and review.

4. Chapter 4 by mat528 [Reviews - 2] (2119 words)
A/N: I hope you like the story so far! Please read and review! There's a little bit of adult content in this chapter.

5. Chapter 5 by mat528 [Reviews - 3] (2417 words)
A/N: This chapter is more about Xander and Buffy but fear not; Spike’s reaction to the love spell is in the next chapter!

Yes, I know...you want to see a little “Spuffy”! Dear readers, you are about to get your wish! Please let me know how I’m doing! Also, Amy has a father in this story, since it is an Alternate Universes tale.

So, Spike is wounded over what’s happened, at least a little! What is he gonna do, and what will happen next to our heroine as things get progressively worse?

If Principal Snyder’s first name is something else, sorry about the slip-up. For those that don’t know: “fag” is Brit-speak for a cigarette.

A/N: Just a quick note to say that Spike does not appear in this chapter, but the reason for his disappearance will become clear in the next chapter!

9. Chapter 9 by mat528 [Reviews - 3] (3258 words)
I’m introducing a new character in this chapter who hopefully will clear up the disappearance of another character.

This chapter deals with substance abuse issues, and I got the idea from a Season Six episode, and something I had read about a famous person whose parent allegedly gave illegal substances to.

10. Chapter 10 by mat528 [Reviews - 2] (1674 words)
A/N: Just a quick thanks to all who were kind enough to review!

This chapter is a little more Bangel than Spuffy for plot reasons, though our favorite peroxide vamp is in it!

Disclaimer: any coincidental names of persons living or dead is strictly, well...coincidental. I still don’t own anything.

11. Chapter 11 by mat528 [Reviews - 2] (3660 words)
A/N: I took a cue from the ep. "Normal Again" in Season Six for this chapter, which was very hard to write. I'm also using Merrick, Buffy's first Watcher, in a slightly OOC way. Buffy is also OOC. Just letting everyone know.

Please read and review, but no flames! LOL

12. Chapter 12 by mat528 [Reviews - 3] (2512 words)
A/N: Buffy learns that there are sometimes severe consequences for one's actions as her friends and family turn against her.

Some situations are from later in Season Two.

Some of the characters from BTVS may be out of character. Whether they are in character or OOC, however, they still are Joss's babies, not mine

13. Chapter 13 by mat528 [Reviews - 2] (2119 words)
A/N: Spike and Drusilla make some dastardly plans, while the hunt for Buffy is on.

14. Chapter 14 by mat528 [Reviews - 3] (3020 words)
A/N: Buffy is made an offer, the search for her goes on in Sunnydale, and a Prince struggles to keep his Princess.

Again, some characters may be OOC for the purposes of this fic. A little dialogue and situations are taken from Season Three. Please read and review, thanks!

15. Chapter 15 by mat528 [Reviews - 3] (4604 words)
A/N: Quick one, here. I'm glad you all liked the previous chapter! Buffy appears later in it (just so you all know).

This chapter was VERY hard to write, since it introduces my take on characters in this alternate universe. It is also longer than some of the other chapters. Some familiar faces are OOC. No flames, please, if you review.

16. Chapter 16 by mat528 [Reviews - 4] (3922 words)
Faith and Wesley have taken over (or are about to,) even as another force takes over in Sunnydale. And, where does that leave Buffy and the Scoobies?

Just a quick word concerning Rack. He is part demon in this; I just thought it would be good for the story. Sorry if he is a little OOC.

Very AU in this chapter. There is a little bit of blood play in this chapter, but not too graphic.

This is kinda a “tying up loose ends” kind of chapter, so if that’s not your cup o’ tea, then I’ll see you in the next chapter. Reviews, pretty please?
