Very good!    I hope there is a sequel sometime soon!     I would love to read a story showing what COULD have happened if the Scooby gang knew about Riley and the Initiative sooner than they did.    What might happen to Willow?   How would that affect the others in their thinking regarding Spike and Demons in general?    What if the Initiative took Anya and/or Buffy to experiment on?   Would Giles and the others understand that anyone the Initiative deems is different is fair game?    Just like Willow would defend Native Americans or argue against animal vivisections, would the others see that anyone (demons, etc.)subjected to experiments and/or vivisections was wrong??    I do hope you will be able to continue this idea through another story sometime.

Thank you so much for sharing your talent with the rest of us.

that was really good but kinda abrupt. i hope there's more

Oh I loved it, I would love to find out what happened next, did you ever do a sequel.

The end? The end? That can't be the end woman, I WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED NEXT!!!!!! roflmao

In response to your response - oh please please epilogue addressing those issues - I just have to know! LOL

Nah-ah. That CAN'T be the end. Oh but kudos on the accurate voices you gave Buffy & Spike. Soooo...when's the sequel comin'? *Leans across the desk and rests her chin in her hand while smiling in what she hopes is a beguiling fashion in order to encourage the very talented author to continue* LOL!

I loved Spike's plan to get Buffy to admit that something more then kissing went on between them. This Spike was a whole lot of fun. Thanks for the story.

ahhhh is there more - please tell me there is more - I want to know how eeverything else plays out - if they kidnap willow, does ox come back and get captured, how does buffy intergrate herself with riley and walsh - oh please please can I have more - if not a sequal an epilouge? Just so I know? *bats eyelashes*

The end? That doesn't seem quite like the end, but I loved the way Spike worked so hard at baiting Buffy to admit to things. A very fun topic for a story. Thanks for sharing.

That was great! Too bad it wasn't longer.

oh please tell me that's not the end!! i was so just getting into this and there are so many ways you could go with this! is there at least a sequel? ;) please let me know if there's more, i love it!!! thanx for this great fic! :)

4: so buffys finally starting to come to the point of admitting that she does at least care if he gets hurt or not...it's touching that she wants to take on the initiative for him...can't wait to see where you go from here :)

3: man..now i'm scared for willow...and poor anya...riley's just evil the way you write him in this...how could they ever have thought the initiative was a good thing in the show? i hope buffy shows spike a little compassion soon :)

chapter 2: oh poor spike...i just wanna hug him...mean evil old riley!! maybe buffy will wise up about some things once she learns the truth about him...great chapter by the way :)

chapter one: very excellent start...i'm very interested in seeing how he makes this happen...love the only-sort-of-unresolved sexual tension between the two of them, too...great start :)

fantastic read. it was a lot of fun, right up to those evil words, 'The end.: thanks for the fine read.

Ha ha, joke's on Buffy...

Very sweet,funny and totally believable. Now how about a sequel?

Shame, there is a 'The End' at the end, I'd love to see more of this story. Great Buffy/Spike, they feel spot on. More Please? *big puppy eyes** :)

great story

Very Interesting. More, please.

This was great, and the characterization spot on. Any plans to continue? What? I can pull the "begging for sequel" card too. :P
