Unexpected Suprises

When Giles and Buffy woke up the next morning, they shared a passionate kiss before Buffy went to the shower to ready herself for her day. It was then that she got hit with her first wave of morning sickness. She was bent over the toilet when Dawn came in to take her shower and immediately left to get Giles. She went into their room, and told him that Buffy was heaving in the bathroom, and to make sure it was cleaned up so she could get her shower taken. Giles rushed into the bathroom with this, and held Buffy’s hair out of the way so she could get her thing taken care of.

“Ugh, I hope I don’t have to go through that during this whole pregnancy. That sucks.”

“I hope you don’t as well. I hate to see you in pain. Let me get the shower going, so we can get one taken then Dawn can have it all to herself.”

“Sounds like a plan, she looked pretty upset when she saw me in here. I hope she isn’t too freaked out over it.”

“Yes, well, this is all a part of being pregnant.”

They took their shower together after Buffy got done with the toilet. They were going to have to find a doctor that specializes in mystic pregnancies and such, so they wouldn’t get too many questions from the normal ones. After they were done and dressed, Buffy knocked on Dawn’s door and told her the shower was free for her to use. They then went downstairs to get breakfast ready. While they were doing so, Willow, Oz and Xander showed up to have breakfast with them. Willow and Xander were teasing with Dawn over her lack of concern for her sister, and Oz just looked at her, wondering where she came from. It must be the were-wolf in him that had him immune to anything. He knew she shouldn’t be here at all, and voiced his concerns aloud.

“What do you mean she shouldn’t be here?”

“All I’m saying is that she wasn’t here yesterday. I don’t know what you guys were given to contradict me if you are going to, but I know for a fact that something is up, and she isn’t supposed to be here at all. Maybe you should consult with your powers people and see what they have on her and why she is here.”

It was then that the bright light from a few weeks ago in Giles’ old place showed again. Willow screamed and ran to Oz. Xander put himself between that thing and Dawn. Giles and Buffy just sat there in their chairs waiting for the people to show up. When the light went away, the same two people were there.

“We understand that one of you is aware that this child doesn’t belong here. You are right. We sent a key here in the form of her, so this God that has come forth into this dimension doesn’t find it to open up her own to get back. Please take care of this thing. If you all defeat this God, we will make sure all your dreams come true. We will make sure you know all the arts, dark and light in wicca Willow. We will also take away your ability to become a were-wolf Oz, as well as making you, Xander a fighter that you always wanted to be to feel completely welcome with the group. The person who will be rewarded the most will be Spike. He will receive his humanity along with the rights that both Giles and Buffy have. Immortal life. He will be the keeper of the key, and will play a pivotal part in the coming war with this God. He will know what his part is once it arrives. Thank you for your time.”

They left in the same light they came in on. Everybody was shocked, including Dawn.

“Now that was odd. Were those the same ones that came to you two?”

“Yes Xander they were. Now we need to keep you safe from this God person, whoever the hell she is. I also need to get to Spike and let him know what is going on.”

With that, Buffy grabbed a piece of toast, and kissed Giles on her way out. She went across town to Spikes crypt and knocked on the door. He came to it and opened it, noticing Buffy standing there.

“Wow, up for another toss around already? I wonder what Giles would think about that.”

“This isn’t about me or last night. Are you aware that I have a sister?”

“Yes I am aware of it. Haven’t seen her though, but I know she exists.”

“That’s just the thing. I don’t have one at all. The Powers are screwing with us, they sent us a key that this God person needs to use to open up her dimension to get home. The Powers showed up this morning to inform us, since Oz felt that something was up. They told us about this, and that you are the keeper of the key, and will play a pivotal part in destroying this God or making sure the key isn’t used to open up the dimension. Once this happens, you will be rewarded with humanity and immortality along with Giles and I. Since that is to happen, why don’t you get out of this musty crypt and move in with us? The basement is finished of course, so you can use it for your own while you keep an eye on Dawn.”

“Sounds like a great plan. I will be there later on with my things and get settled.”

With that, Buffy left to go back home. She got back in and everybody was still around the dining room table, talking. Dawn got up and went to where Buffy was standing.

“Is he ok with what he has to do?”

“Yes, Dawn, he is ok with it. He is going to move in here and live in the basement to keep an eye on you.”

“Good. Angel called while you were away, and let his number for you to call. He said it was urgent.”

“Alright, thanks. I will get him called right away.”

Buffy went to the phone to call Angel up, it was about three rings later when a woman answered the phone.

“Angel Investigations, we help the helpless. How may we help you?”

“Cordelia?”

“Oh, hey Buffy, forgot to tell you that Wesley and I moved to LA to help Angel out. We are running a paranormal investigations office. We also have this demon by the name of Doyle who sees things and directs us where we need to go. What’s up?”

“Angel called me, and wanted to talk to me.”

“Ok, here he is.”

“This is Angel, how may I help you?”

“This is Buffy, you told Dawn that you needed to talk to me?”

“Yes, I did. Why didn’t you tell me that your dad works for an evil law firm?”

“Thought never crossed my mind. Why you asking?”

“We had a rather bad dealing with them, and your dad was sent to get rid of the good element in the area that they had power over, and found me fighting a kraylack demon that is one of their clients.”

“Oh those are nasty, don’t fight one again if you can. It will kill you. My dad was just doing his job. I knew he worked there, but didn’t know until a month and a half ago that it is a demon law firm. I guess you will have to be careful with your future dealings with them.”

“Ok, duly noted. How is everything for you?”

“Great, had my first bout of morning sickness this morning. And also realized that I don’t have a sister at all, and that she is a key of sorts for some God to get back into her own dimension. The Powers sent her to us, and Spike plays a pivotal part in making sure that this God don’t get home.”

“Spike? What the hell? He is evil, don’t do any dealings with him.”

“He seems pretty tame now that he knows his humanity is on the line if we win this battle. I don’t want anything to happen to Dawn at all, so I am pulling out all the stops to make sure that she survives this.”

“Want me to research it on this end and get back to you with what we know?”

“That would be great. Thanks for the call. Hope to hear from you soon.”

With that Buffy hung up the phone. The gang moved themselves into the living room. Giles was sitting in his favorite chair and Buffy went over to him and sat on his lap. Everybody else was just sitting there wondering what to do for the day. They all eventually agreed on a movie, Days of Thunder. Buffy went to get the popcorn ready, and Willow got the pop from the fridge for everyone. They were just sitting down to start the movie when Spike showed up with his meager belongings. Buffy showed him where the basement door was, and told him once he got himself settled to come back up and watch the movie with them. She then went back to Giles and sat down to enjoy the movie. They were playing with each others hands when Spike came up the stairs and into the living room. Everybody said their hi’s and he settled down on the floor in front of the couch.

Spike was having a hard time adjusting to everybody’s calm attitude towards each other. Throughout the movie, they were commenting on in, and even included him in some of the conversation. He put in his input where it was needed and took occasional glances at Buffy and Giles. They were so immersed in each other it almost grated on his nerves. He found he missed Drusilla, but thought better of it when he saw the look that Dawn was giving him, silently telling him to mind his own business. He patted her on the knee and went about watching the movie.

More than halfway through the movie Giles and Buffy got up and left the room. Spike could smell the arousal coming off of them in waves and was jealous that he couldn’t be a part of it. He desperately wanted to have another go with those two again after last night. His thoughts must have gotten to Buffy, because she suddenly appeared at the doorway to the living room and Spike looked up and saw the look in her eyes. He knew what she was thinking and was instantly up and walking towards her. She led him to the basement and, after locking the door, they walked down the steps to a nicely made bed. It was then that she was on him, kissing him maddingly, striping him of his clothes in the process.

Giles was now sitting on the bed waiting for them to walk over to him. Once Buffy was done with her assault, she walked over to Giles, striping on her way. Giles got even harder watching her put on this show for him. Spike stood off to the side of this and watched, stroking himself. When Buffy got up to Giles, he grabbed her, and hauled her on the bed with him, kissing her with abandon. Buffy worked on his shirt to get it off. Once done with this, she then worked on his pants. After divesting of these, Giles positioned himself for entry, and plowed into her. When he finished his orgasm, he turned his head in the direction that Spike was still in, and motioned for him to come on over. This time, Spike was up front and Giles was behind Buffy. They repeated what they did last night, and they all climaxed at the same time. Spike kept up with Buffy pretty good, and again bit into her to drink from her once he knew she was going over the edge. When they all finished and got dressed, Buffy addressed them.

“We need to stop doing this. It’s become quite addictive already. And you, you need to stop biting me. I know that it drives me crazy with it, but you need to stop it. I am pregnant here and need all this blood to keep my child nourished.”

“Yes ma’am. I can’t help it, seeing you two cuddling like that, drives me crazy seeing it.”

“Well, tamp those thoughts down a bit, I could hear you when we walked out of the room, you know?”

“No I didn’t know that you could.”

“Went up against a demon and it’s mind reading thing seeped into me, Angel helped out all he could, but a bit of it remained.”

“Oh those kind. Nasty buggers.”

“Yes they are. Now lets all get dressed, and try to have a normal day?”

They got dressed and went back upstairs, Spike first of course. The movie was just finishing up when they entered the living room to resume their spots. No one was the wiser as to what happened, well, except for Oz, but all he smelled was sex in the air.

It was several months later that the battle with Glory the God took place. Willow had made friends with a lot of wiccan and became a member of a coven. She had a couple of her friends, Amy and Tara help her out with the spells needed to keep Glory’s lackeys at bay. They were all at an alleyway where the dimension rip was, and Glory had Dawn tied up and up on a scaffolding style platform. Buffy was fighting her with all her with all she had. It was hard fighting a God with the same powers as one. The witches made sure to put a barrier around Buffy’s abdomen so Glory wouldn’t harm the baby. Spike was in the fray fighting the lackeys with all he had. It was then that he realized his calling, and ran his way up the stairs to top of the landing, shoving more lackeys out of the way as he went up. Once he got to the top, he ran past Buffy and grabbed Glory and ran pel mel into the cloudy rip in this dimension. Glory’s lackeys all disappeared after this, and all was silent after seeing Spike risk his life for the greater good to keep Dawn safe. The cloud disappeared and Spike was laying on the ground under where it was. Buffy got Dawn untied and they both ran down the steps to where everyone else was. Giles ran to Buffy’s arms and was ever glad to see that she was still alive and well.

After checking everyone else out for scrapes or bruises, they all converged on what looked to be Spikes prone body. It was then that a light appeared and Spike was raised up by it. He was standing when the light disappeared and he had to take a huge breath. His lungs weren’t used to being used for so many centuries, that it hurt. His eyes opened and was met with everyone around him. He knew that his destiny had been fulfilled. He was human now, an immortal one at that. Willow, Oz, and Xander started to glow as well. Anya was off to the side along with Amy and Tara wondering what was going on. After the glow went away from everyone, Willow was levitating, while Oz was having a hard time smelling things. Xander went to the scaffolding and was able to knock it down with one hit. It crashed to the ground. Anya then ran up to Xander and started kissing him with abandon. They left to do their own thing, while everyone else went back to Giles and Buffy’s house to plan their wedding now that this battle was adverted.
