I absolutely am in love with this story. I keep coming back to see if you have updated, and even if you haven't, I just end up reading it again! Lame, I know, but hey, you have a kickass story working for you here. I love evil Buffy and her "moral dilemma" of loving Spike. Well Done! I hope you update soon!

awww, giles and lydia..pairing i never thought about before...but could work out well...good chapter, love :)

good read, thank you. growing fond of buffy as just slayer, but i suppose you will have to fix that. not 'til after she is confronted by the slayer out to kill her, i hope.

Great to have an update - fantastic story and twist to the series - Very much hope that you can bring us another update soon - Trauma/Evil/Buffy Slayer is very bad news, feel sorry for all the charcters -

OH I hope they managed to stop Buffy and Isauah

Good work JC - well worth the effort.

whew this is turning into a mess....are they ever going to be able to fix this? probably not...wonder how buffy's going to react to spike next time she sees him, knowing she cant break their bond...great chapter, love :)

WOW.. Just so much in this chapter. I just don't know what I want to happen. I am glad that Tara gave Buffy a heads up with the connection between her and Spike. And Spike and Xander still working as somewhat of a team. Willow has snapped and now we have Isaiah in the mix at Sunnydale. AWESOME chapter.

always thought andrew was around way too long. very good read, thank you.

Uber Hornet's Nest - nasty place to be. Nice to see that a potential saving of Buffy exist - also nice how you twisted the good intentions corrupted by anger. Thanks much for the new chapters - can't wait for the next.

Great chapter, can't wait to see what happens next.

OH I can't wait to see what happens next.

Good work.

warren doesn't even register, but tara is another matter. very good read, thank you. never apologize.

Great chapter.

Totally Love your work - hope that you will have an update soon -

I reread, and I'm a trembling to see how deep the carnage is going to get. And I agree Buffy's not God-level YET. But I can see Buffy aquiring such Power to deal with what she will (Rightfully) consider an Upstart. Feel free to e-mail me for further discussion, and to avoid any possible spoilers :)

travers and most of the council gone. hopefully warren no longer with us. very good chapter, thank you.

Great chapter.

wow....great turn this story has taken :) i'm loving it...how very scary things have gotten...how are spike and xander and the others going to handle this double slayer threat without...well...the slayer? great chapter, looking forward to more :)

*Watches in Awe as a New Hell-Goddess begins to stir* hehehe! Poor Travers thought he could pull a Shadow-Man hmmm? Never stopped and thought that the Demonic Essence, PURE Demon Essence, like ANY power, tends to magnify everything, including one's faults.

And now, they're going to have two nearly indestructable killers tear the unholy HELL out of the Hellmouth. *Images of a disaster resembling Transformers movie ringing through head*

Some interesting speculations and hopes here:

1. I'm seriously hoping that the Scoobies come out the furnace the War of the Slayers is going to ignite battered, weary, but better off. Hopefully they'll have settled, or worked on settling alot of the issues out, after having seen how quickly something good can be lost. From what I've seen so far, I'm betting Darth Buffy is going to stop pulling punches verbally speaking, laying bare wounds and issues that have festered for so long. Having these issues lanced by Buffy's acidic tongue will be fun to watch, and it'll be seriously inspiring to see the Scoobies take those hits and not stop doing their damnest to reach her.

2. From the looks of things, the Council has been decimated, so Giles can rebuild with a good understanding on what kind of mistakes to avoid at ALL COSTS.

3. I trust the Movers and Shakers of the Buffyverse are going to be watching this very carefully by the end at any rate; having a SLAYER gain enough Mystical Power that would allow her to stand against a GOD without a Godly Weapon would be something that would come as obvious. God-Level Power should always be watched carefully, so you can use/abuse/contain/drain it for your purposes. :)

I dont know bro. dont get me wrong Buffy has completely snapped. But shooting warren? slightly out of character? at the same time it makes for a bad-ass ending. keep it coming!!

Fuckin awsome chapter. Now hurry up and write six damnit

cannot get worked up about warrren screaming and probably dying painfully. good chapter, thank you.

I really do hope that Spike can help Buffy before she goes too far. But as far as she is concerned she has nothing left. But until then, they are all going to gather the troops. Just love the chapter.

Great story, DN. You're an excellent writer and I hope you'll keep going. Besides, we need some manly men around this henhouse. Heh heh.

wow, buffy's getting scary...glad to see that at least spike's not alone in this, as unlikely as xander's friendship might be...looking forward to seeing where you take this :)

Dark. Normally find the concept of Buffy doing anything this bad as a bit unbelievable, but Dawn's death would be just the right trigger. Really like this fic.

There will be pain for Warren, and later much guilt for Buffy. I like the Xander and Spike interaction.

I'm a tad disappointed in gile's reaction, though it might be he's still feeling the hangover's effects too much to rally as he normally would. I'm very hopeful that Willow and Tara get their differences ironed out, they're going to NEED all the solidarity they can get when Buffy REALLY comes unglued!

Finally, I vote that Buffy spreads Warren all over that floor of the hospital, one piece at a time :).

Oh my! Buffy gonna play surgeon, and I don-t think Warren's gonna like it :P Spike-ll probably see the poetic side to this justice though

Love it when a Xander comes to his senses, even if it is for a short time. He did keep his wits about him and get Spike. Nothing all along that Dawn was going to die, didn't make it any easier thou. Of course the slayer would emerge, great work. Now to see what else happens, thanks.

Great - buffy on the warpath.

Bad-ass. I like how u show the development of Xander. U lay it out alot better than the show did. Keep the chapters comin.

Glad to see all the wonderful reviews you're getting. Keep up the good work.

Wonderful and exciting start - ready for the next chapter yesterday - sounds likes this will be a very interesting tale.

Sorry to see that poor Dawn has died - but the extreme action reads just right and like what is needed.

Oh, Warren is so going to get it. Buffy will probably tear him apart.

fantastic way to set the scene. very good chapter, thank you.

Oh, my. O_O

Warren's made his last mistake, methinks.

good chapter, love...very exciting and tense....enjoyed it :)

I think this might be bad...

Very exciting writing.

Is there not a huge moral discrepency with a doctor making sure a vampire lives. Vampires kill people, Doctors heal. Plus its bad for the doctors business, with the sucking people dry and fewer patients. But I digress. The story is phenomenal. Post the next chapter soon.

i'd really like to see spike settle warren, but that would reinforce buffy's soul/no soul garbage, i mean argument. very good read, thank you.

still lookin' good...i want an explanation as to how and why the doctor knows who spike is, why he would treat him {if they know about vampires then they probably wouldn't like them, right?), and how the hell did they know about the chip?...oooohhh, please make warren suffer...i think buffy could do some serious damage if she put a little effort into it...bring on the buffy horror!

Great chapter.

oh dear...

Wow, now that's a first! I've never heard Tara swear like that before. Very refreshing to have the medical personal of SunnyD aware of it's "other" residents. Hope you tell us how Dr. Harrison, knows of Spike and his chip? Sorry your muse is giving you a hard time. Bring him down here to Disney World and take him up to Space Mountain. Sometimes honey works better since beating hasn't worked yet. Ha ha!

Woah. Glad Tara's alive at least - never did like the way she died. Warren deserves a violent and self-inflicted death, but guessing from the summary I'll just have to settle for the violent part. Please repair Spike's face quickly!

wow...things are getting more intense...hope warren doesn't get the chance to do anymore damage... :P

This is interesting. I like the way you've played it out. More, soon, please?

Intense!

Nice Way to hang this chapter. now im hooked

lookin' good...i really loved dawn's tirade about spike and how he's been better to her than anyone...warren was pretty chilling-with the calm shooting at close range...can't wait to see Darth Buffy

Wow, what an emotional chapter. Just wondering how Buffy survives her wounds, does Spike turn her? Glad that Spike let her have it though. Always hated how he was treated by her. Great chapter, thanks.

Oh dear lord that was intense! You pack a lot of emotion into a single chapter!

Uhm, the next chapter is coming soon, right? You have me chewing my nails here!

This doesn't look good for Spike, Buffy and Dawn.
Great chapter.

good chapter, love, harrowing suspense...can't wait to see where you take the rest of it :)

GAK! All you writers are just sadistic - evil, evil cliffies!!
more, please?

Awesome. can't wait for more :)

lots of twists, none of which could be anticipated. very good read, thank you.

Sniff, evil writer made reader cry in the first chapter. That was wicked.

hey nice chapter man. you really captured the characters. good jod!

saw this challenge awhile ago and couldn't wait to see what someone would come up with...a very promising beginning...i can't wait to see what spike wakes up to

Welcome to BSV. Looking forward to your dark fic, just remember in the challenge it said no attempted rape, so you need to change your summary. This is a hard challenge, good luck, it's a good beginning

good to see dawn attempting to get through to spike. tough to do with the whiskey adding fuel to the turmoil. very good beginning, thanks for the read.

i love spike/dawn friendship, love that you had her stay around in this version and actually talk to him, instead of just accusing him and walking out like she did in the show... :P great chapter, love :)

Nothing like drunken, maudlin Spike.

Great beginning, looking forward to more.
