Realities Entwined

Author: Aislynn

Disclaimer: It’s not mine all of it belongs to Joss, and Mutant Enemy & Laurel K Hamilton. I just fell in love with the characters from the very first episode, and from the first book of Laurel’s I read Guilty Pleasures.

Summary: I was reading through site bloodshed and saw a challenge posted. I got the idea of this story from that challenge but decided to go somewhere else with it and I hope you like. This will be a blending of both worlds. Will include most Buffy/Angel/Anita Blake series characters those you like and those you don’t. This begins with Buffy jumping off the tower and being taken back to her first death and the world going AU from there.

Rating: NC-17

Prologue

Staring into eyes of Dawn, Buffy knew what she had to do it was what she was made to do, save the world. This time it was her choice and she made it. Giving her sister a soft smile she moved past her and then without a second thought launched herself off the platform.

It wasn’t the concrete below or even her friends that she saw as she moved through the air, but glimpses of other realities and alternate realties that Dawn’s blood had opened for a moment. The sensation of freefalling suddenly transformed from a weightless sensation to the sickening feeling of being catapulted at light speed. One moment she was watching the infinite snapshots of other realties flash by the next it was overwhelming and the darkness claimed her.

When one door closes another opens, and in this realm the life of Buffy Summers played out not in Sunnydale but in St. Louis and ended in the embrace of the Master, bitten and tossed like she was nothing into the deep puddle with in the Master’s lair.

As the soul of this realm’s Buffy Summers left her body the powers chose to insert their champion’s soul into this world’s version of herself. In this world Xander Harris never found his friend in time to save her but because of her sacrifice in another realm they chose to allow her the chance to live within another realm. So the fabric of this world pieced itself back together and Xander arrived just in time to save Buffy and he was able to revive her for a moment but she slipped away into darkness.


Chapter 1

Why he kept coming back he didn’t know, couldn’t explain it but the fragile looking angel lying in the hospital bed had changed his life forever. Lt. Dolph Storr stood staring at the blond beauty but it wasn’t her beauty that brought him back to her bedside to check up on her, and see if sleeping beauty hadn’t finally awoken. It was the effect her case had upon his life she had never even spoken to him but she had changed his life forever.

The first time he glimpsed her face had been almost six years ago, in his very hospital and just one glance caught his attention and drew him in forcing him to dig deeper and find the truth. They say curiosity killed the cat well it almost killed him for her case would lead him to the first encounter with the monsters that were now considered legal citizens.

Upon arriving on the scene an attempted homicide they were told that the perp had tried to drown the victim and that a friend Xander Harris had managed to do CPR until an ambulance had arrived. The victim was Elizabeth Summer’s only 15 at the time she had a savage bite on her neck. Once they arrived at the hospital they learned she had to have a transfusion and that she was in a coma.

Dolph had to call her mother and ask her to come to the hospital. Joyce Summer’s devastation upon learning about her daughters attack had touched Dolph in a way nothing had in quite sometime. The myths and creatures of legend were just stepping out of the shadows, and beginning to fight for their legal rights to protect them from being hunted down.

Before that night he had never knowingly dealt with anything supernatural or paranormal and that night had opened his eyes wide to what had been there all along yet had chosen to remain hidden. Dolph and several men had gone after the suspect not realizing what they were up against. The vampire killed several of the men in just a few minutes. The suspect was killed but not by an officer.

They were outmatched and had to get out of there and only had because monsters had sent one of their own to kill the vampire that called himself the master they couldn’t have that kind of bad PR when trying to convince everyone they were harmless. When the department formed RPIT, Dolph signed up right away. A lot of people thought he had been assigned to the squad because he was on someone’s shit list, they had no idea he volunteered for the detail.

A year passed and Dolph was at the hospital seeing how Anita was doing after winding up in the hospital after helping him out again. He found himself walking down the hallways and asked a nurse about Elizabeth Summers. Dolph asked how she was doing and learned that she was still in a coma but there was brain activity and all tests were good and the nurse sighed softly saying all she needed to do was wake up.

For some reason even he couldn’t explain he would stop by every now and again to see how she was doing, and to see if there was any progress, but she was the same as she had been a year ago. Then Joyce Summers died of a brain aneurism, and Dolph realized that Elizabeth Summers was all alone in the world and he found himself feeling somewhat responsible for her. One of the nurses informed him that her friends had stopped by for a while after her accident but after the lack of response they moved on with their lives.

At first he didn’t know exactly what he should tell Lucille. You really couldn’t just walk in on your wife, who gave you two sons that you sometimes visited a young girl in the hospital. Finally he told her and she asked to go with him. He told Lucille what had happened, and when he stopped by one evening he found Lucille sitting by Elizabeth’s bedside talking to the girl. It seemed since their two boys were both grown and out of the house Lucille needed someone to dote on and decided that she would spend sometime at the hospital each week visiting not just Buffy but others at the hospital in similar situations, as well.

Reaching out he brushed his fingers across her hand giving it a light squeeze wishing that she would wake up. Just as he began to settle down in his chair to spend a few minutes talking to Elizabeth his phone ring.

“We have a body downtown you should head down here.” Zebroski’s voice came over the line.

“I will be right there.” Dolph sighed getting up. “Sorry I can’t stay longer.” Reaching out he took her hand again giving it a squeeze then headed out the door.

Elizabeth Ann Summers felt the darkness’s tendrils begin to unravel and the light begin to penetrate the protective cocoon she currently occupied. The darkness wasn’t evil rather it was healing the scars of her past, and the trip she took on her way to occupy this body such visions of various worlds were not for mortal eyes.

Flashes of two previous lives were wiped away as she was given a clean slate to work with only the important details remained. The knowledge of who and what she was remained as did the facts about what she fought against the various demons was there only the details of her everyday life were gone.

Buffy was being given a second chance in a new world, and she didn’t need all the baggage from previous lives bogging her down. There was going to be enough for the young champion to deal with in this realm for it held old friends and old enemies along with a whole new crop of both she was going to encounter.
