Is she really a vampire or does she just think so? Well,either way I loved it:)
Thank you!

Oh I don't think she is a Vampire and I think Joyce knew she would be leaving.
Joyce suspected -- she wasn't entirely sure what was going on, but she suspected that something was trying to pull Buffy back. And as for the vampire thing -- of course she wasn't. But if you'd been dead, then had to dig up out of your own grave and see your own tombstone, then thought back on all the years that you've experienced seeing things like this happen to other people, what would you think? Remember, Buffy wasn't totally rational at this point -- she had literally just been yanked out of heaven and back into her grave by four well-meaning but incredibly stupid people. Or rather, four well-meaning people, one of whom was very stupid and three others who were very duped.

A great addition to this fic!  So glad there was a reunion with Joyce!  It was nice to have an image of what Heaven was like for Buffy other than just peaceful.  Loved the part after her resurrection!  It always seemed like Buffy was really scared and confused but the idea that she had been turned was one I'd never thought of.  It worked really well!
Keep in mind -- season 1 told us flat out what Buffy's greatest fear was. Granted, by this time five years has passed, so her greatest fear may have changed, but I think there was a part of her that has always been terrified of dying and being resurrected as a vampire. Seriously, if you'd been in her position, what would you have thought if you'd been at peace, then had to not only dig yourself out of your own grave, but had to face your own tombstone -- veritable proof that you'd been dead?

Of course, Joss might have simply said that Buffy was slightly out of her mind given the random resurrection and plane-shifting, so whatever :) Thanks for the review!
