So as she was now seemingly in charge of several vampire children and Spike had vanished from town, she did just that. &amp;nbsp;But, of course, getting away from Buffy and the Scoobies is never that easy....</description>

<description>It&amp;#39;s the summer after Season Four, and Buffy&amp;#39;s ready for some peace and quiet when Angel arrives out of nowhere and she&amp;#39;s trapped between two rival lovers. To make matters worse, Spike&amp;#39;s lonely and looking for a new playmate- and that alternative is suddenly sounding kind of appealing.</description>

<title>A Friend in Need - Chapter 15</title>
<author>slaymesoftly</author>
<link>http://www.bloodshedverse.com/stories.php?go=read&amp;no=13502</link>
<description>My other Seasonal Spuffy entry for this round:
A sequel to a short (6200+) off-canon Season Four fic &amp;ndash; Even Demons Need Friends, but I don&amp;rsquo;t think you need to have read that story (although it&amp;rsquo;s kinda fun...). All you need to know is that this is a non-canon Season 5 in which Glory is there searching for her Key, Joyce is sick, Spike is unchipped and living in another city. At the end of the previous story, he&amp;rsquo;d asked Buffy to call him if she needed help.
They don&amp;rsquo;t have a relationship yet; they weren&amp;rsquo;t even much more than canon Season Four semi-enemies, with an unrecognized and unacknowledged sexual attraction, when Ethan&amp;rsquo;s spell to turn Giles into a Fyral demon wrought some important changes in a very short period of time. But not changes sufficient to make it likely that a slayer, with a human boyfriend and a firm belief in what&amp;rsquo;s right and acceptable, and an old vampire, who has just regained his ability to hunt and feed, are likely to see any kind of a future for them. In spite of some surprising revelations about how they may feel about each other.
You can assume that the rest of Season Four and some of Season Five have proceeded pretty much as in canon, but without Spike&amp;rsquo;s presence. That absence, and the reason for it, has changed things enough that I think it&amp;rsquo;s fair to call this an AU Season Five. Some things will be familiar, some things obviously will not, so don&amp;rsquo;t go looking for an identical timeline or identical events.</description>

<description>It was the Tuesday before Christmas and Buffy hoped after a quick patrol she&amp;rsquo;d finally be earning a much-needed break. However, this was still the Hellmouth, which is the perfect place for a few of Santa&amp;rsquo;s disgruntled elves to stir up a little trouble.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; </description>

<title>Best Bloody Christmas Ever - Chapter 1</title>
<author>slaymesoftly</author>
<link>http://www.bloodshedverse.com/stories.php?go=read&amp;no=13493</link>
<description>


	A (not so) Comic Christmas that employs the first half of issue #16, then goes it&amp;rsquo;s own way. So, story was Jossed before it was written, but that&amp;rsquo;s what fanfic is all about, right? Twisting canon to make it Spuffy. J&amp;nbsp; AU season 9 that begins with a little scene between Dowling and Buffy after Dawn and Xander have indicated they seem to be dating &amp;ndash; or should be.

	&amp;nbsp;

	Warning &amp;ndash; spoilers for the comic hinted at in the scene change.
