Chapter 74
“Buffy. . .”
Within a minute everyone was running out of the apartment to see what had happened no one stopping for the ringing phone.
Spike pulled the door open just as another small explosion went off.
“BUFFY!!!” Spike screamed as he noticed the car that was on fire.
“I’ll call 911.” Tara said running back up stairs.
Xander and Angel were trying their best to hold Spike back from running to the car.
“This isn’t how it was suppose to happen.” Spike kept saying over and over.

“I’m sorry, but there’s no way Ms. Summers or anyone for that matter could have survived the explosion.” The officer told the group that was standing around the scene.
“Do you. . .Do you know how it happened?” Tara asked.
“We’re not sure just yet but we’re doing everything to make sure we get to the bottom of this as soon as possible.” The officer answered. “I think it’d be best if you all went back inside for right now. I’ll send an officer up to ask everyone a dew questions in a few minutes.”
“Thank you Officer.” Tara said as she followed everyone back into the apartment.
*****
Everyone was seated around the living room an hour later after the officer had come up and taken the groups statements. None of them really knowing what to do or say.
“Please tell me that was part of the grand plan that Mr. Summers came up with.” Willow begged after a few more moments of silence.
“You know it wasn’t. We all knew what the plan was going to be like, that wasn’t it.” Tara said as she sat down next to Willow on the couch.
“But maybe. . .” Anya started.
“IT WASN’T!!!” Spike yelled. “This was in no way how things were suppose to go.”
Tears started to run down Anya’s face. “I didn’t. . .”
“Shh. . .” Xander said pulling Anya towards him.
“I’m sorry.” Spike whispered running a hand through his hair.
“This isn’t easy for any of us right now, but we’ve got to stick together or we’re going to go crazy.” Willow explained.
Spike stood up and headed towards the door. “You all stick together. I’m gonna go take care of the person who’s behind this.”
“Spike wait!” Cordelia called out running after him as he opened the door. “You can’t do this, you’re not thinking clearly.”
“BUFFY'S DEAD!!!” Spike screamed.
“I KNOW that!” Cordelia yelled back. “I was here, we all were. Going out there like this isn’t going to bring her back.”
“Maybe not, but it might bring me closer to her.” With that said Spike left the apartment.
“He’s going to get himself killed too.” Cordelia whispered walking back to the living room. She stopped when she noticed the blinking light on the answering machine. As she pushed the button Carter’s voice filled the room.
“Buffy if you’re there please pick up. Buffy it’s Carter. Drusilla called me today, I know what she’s got planned next. Buffy I need you to call me back as soon as you get this. It’s time.”
Everyone looked over towards the machine as Carter’s voice disappeared from the room.

‘Summers’ Mansion’
“I’m sorry to have to be telling you this Mr. and Mrs. Summers.” The Officer stated.
“Are you. . .Are you sure it was her?” Hank asked setting next to his grieving wife.
“Her friends said she was leaving in her car, the same one that exploded. The lab are running some test to make sure of the identity of the person we found in the car, but it’s going to take some time.”
Hank stood up and walked over to the Officer. “I want the results of those test on my desk by the morning.”
“Sir we don’t have that type of man power here, Sunnydale is a small town.” The Officer told Hank.
“I will pay for what ever it takes, just make sure I have those results by tomorrow morning.”
“Yes Sir.” The Officer said before walking out of the room.
“Dawn will be home soon.” Joyce spoke for the first time since the Officer had arrived at their home to tell them about their eldest daughter. “How are we going to tell her?”
“We’ll find a way. I think we should wait until we know for sure though.” Hank said taking a seat next to his wife again.
“How did this happen? You had a plan worked out, all we were waiting for was the first step to be taken.”
“We’ll know more tomorrow, until then lets not think about it.”
“How can I not?” Joyce asked in a low whisper.

‘The Magic Box’
“Drusilla did you do this?” Ethan asked as he turned away from the television the news was playing on.
“Do what?” Drusilla asked looking up from a book she was reading.
“There was a car explosion involving Ms. Summers today, did you have anything to do with it?”
“No.” Drusilla replied.
“You had a plan though.”
“Yes, but it wasn’t this good.”
“What was it?”
“I was going to have Carter drug one of her drinks the next time she was around him.” Drusilla explained.
“So you had nothing to do with this?” Ethan asked.
“Noting at all.” Drusilla said standing up from the table and walking towards the shop’s front door.
“Where are you going?”
“Home, my William will need me.”
And with that she was gone.
*****
An hour later Spike walked through the shop’s door.
“William.” Ethan greeted walking around the counter.
“Did you know about this?” Spike asked.
“I only just found out about it a hour ago on the news.”
“Did she have anything to do with it?”
“She said she didn’t.”
“Do you believe her?”
“This doesn’t sound like something she could have pulled off.” Ethan stated.
“What was her plan?” Spike asked.
“She said she was going to have Carter drug Ms. Summers drink.” Ethan explained.
“She’s really gone.” Spike whispered.
“Is there anything I can do?” Ethan asked.
“No, there’s nothing anyone can do.” Spike said turning to leave the shop.
