Characters: Buffy, Spike, Giles, Willow, Xander, Angel, Anya, Ben Wilkinson, Clem, Dawn, Glory, Joyce, Sam Lawson, Tara
Summary: Following the events of Crushed, Spike follows Buffy back to her home trying to convince her of his feelings, and runs into the invisible barrier. Spike was stunned, and incredibly hurt, because that could mean only one thing: Buffy asked Willow to disinvite him BEFORE he chained her up! Why? Spike knew he had access to Buffy's house since well BEFORE the chip. If she never revoked the invite when he was able to harm or kill people, why now, when he isn't? The hurt gives way to anger, and he leaves. Several days later, Buffy has a run-in with Glory, and sends Xander to Spike's crypt for his help. Xander finds the crypt empty, except for an envelope addressed to Buffy. The letter informs Buffy that Spike is out of her life for good, but if she needs supernatural help against Glory, to call this phone number. . .Buffy angrily dials the number, only to have it answered, "Angel Investigations, we help the hopeless". Of course, Angel is "very busy", and cannot "come running for "every little thing". Now Buffy feels lost, as well as betrayed, but NOT by ANGEL! In the midst of her rant against Spike, Anya points out that Buffy got what she deserved for revoking Spike's invite, at the worst possible time. Spike was no danger to any of them, only other demons, so why lock him out? In a huff, Buffy tells Anya to shut up, that she doesn't know what she is talking about. In a rare show of solidarity, both Xander and Giles come to Anya's defense, closely followed by Tara. Having performed the disinvite spell, Willow, remains silent. Now, away from the bigoted Scoobies, Spike has gone underground, and taken his rightful place as the Master of Sunnydale, as heir to Heinrich Nest, Master of the Order of Aurelius. Since he is known as a fierce warrior, the other Demons fall in line. To protect his claim as Master, Spike contacts Sam Lawson, the vampire turned by Angel during WWII. And for the purposes of this story, Angel sired other vampires, 'when he had no other choice', i.e., they were dying (not by Angel), but they had something (information, special skills, etc.), that Angel needed. One such vamp is a cop Angel sired while in NYC just 1 year before Buffy was called as the Slayer. With the help of these vampires who are more like Spike than Angelus, Spike's solidifies his claim as Master. And as Master, he demands that Glorificus and the Knights of Byzantium be stopped. Since Demons are immune to the spell hiding Glory, once Ben is seen turning into Glory, Spike kills Ben. Since Ben is Glory, he cannot be fully human, so no problem from the chip. As for the Knights, Spike orders his demon and vampire minions to get rid of the Knights as well. Glory takes one of the Scoobies (either Giles or Xander) to torture, only for Glory to turn back into Ben, just as Spike shows up, and Spike kills Ben, saving the hostage from further injury. What will happen when Buffy and the others realize that Spike, Master of Sunnydale, ended the reign of terror begun by Glory? Will the Scoobies call for Spike's dusting for killing Ben? If so, will Buffy question Giles' reasoning that Ben was an innocent, even though Giles already suggested that Dawn should be killed in order to save the world? Wouldn't Dawn be the only true innocent here? Play with this however you wish; use or skip whatever you want. All I ask is that you keep Spike's decision to leave and become Master. It may take some doing to make this Spuffy, but I have faith in the writers here at EF. Anyone?
