It seems Buffy has got her act together at last, not before time!! Great job with the scary Willow. What was Giles thinking? Excellent chapter.

good update, thank you. isn't it about time for some justice? payback? revenge?

How in the world does Giles expect to rationalize his actions? Even if Willow controls herself, I bet she'll be overcome with disgust and anger at Giles. Spike saved teh world after doing things no soulless demon should be capable of, was resurrected and didn't contact the love of his unlife so he could try to stand on his own and let her have a happy life. He fought and nearly died to save the world again, was viciously and brutally tortured and broken for months, risked himself more torture to save a stranger who turned out to be a Slayer, got away, and was left to Giles. Oh yes, of course submitting Spike to more torture and ugly treatment to keep him away from the girl who loves him is 'for the greater good' Giles!
Judging by Buffy's building rage, Ethan Rayne's end is not going to be pretty. I look forward to seeing if Spike will recognize Buffy or his reaction to her needing to prove it is her when he doesn't trust his instincts.
Great to see Dark-Willow and I look forward to her getting involved. I'm so happy this updated, but this just makes me want more!

Awesome, awesome, awesome! *Spike fan does happy little dance!* Buffy's going to save Spike now, right??? Please????? I love this story; can't wait for more, please update again soon!

I hope that Ethan doesn't sense the magic around Buffy! I also hope Giles doesn't sweet talk Willow with a load of bull....I want her to know the FULL of it, how Spike came to be in Giles' "care" and what he chose to do to the vampire who died to save them all.

Poor Andrew....I actually like him (and Dawn, another unpopular character) and wish he hadn't had to die. I am proud of him though and know Spike will be very touched that the boy cared that much about him.

Love this story, can't wait for payback for Ethan and Giles but especially Giles.

Thanks for a wonderful update. Looks like buffy and willow will get to go damage bound on someone, haha

go willow. i hope she makes giles face the truth about himself and what he has done and the people he hurt. another great chapter as usual.

I'm so ready for Buffy to save Spike from this dark, twisted, painful life he's been forced into. And I can't wait to find out what happens when Willow learns the truth about what Giles is trying to keep from Buffy. Update soon please!

I forsee a mighty asss kicking coming for Giles and Ethan.

I hope that both of them (and that woman) get to feel the pain thier victims felt and to see how evil thier behavior is.Especially Giles since he's so convinced he's done the right thing.
