Summary: Set in an alternate season five where the monks -instead of sending the slayer a pre-teen sister- send Spike the dimension opening key in the form of a child. Who better to protect it than a man who spend a century caring for a mad seer. This decision from the monks will drastically change the course of the season, and may affect the finale. What will happen when Dawn never reveals to Ben that she is the key, and in turn Ben never tells the scabby minions he would not risk an innocent.
