Summary:
She was well acquainted with the villains that lived in her head. But eventually those whispers she heard day in and out, turned to silent screams and they begged for control and someone to save them from falling apart.
Buffy is fighting a battle that's just as tough as the demons she faces every night. The only difference is, this demon lives inside of her head and she'll have to choose to either accept it or fight it, because how can you kill the monster inside of you without killing yourself in the process?

Hey guys! I know I haven't written anything in a while and I'm sorry! I've just been really busy with school and exams but, guess what? SCHOOL IS OFFICIALLY OVER!! That gives me more time to write and make some fanvideos! I got Sony Vegas 11 on my Mac so now I can be like one of those really awesome vidders. ^-^ I still need to buy my season 6 dvds since I lost them, and then download the episodes onto my computer so I can fullfill all the wonderful ideas I have swirling in my mind for videos. Mostly Spuffy. :)
Anyways, sorry if I bored you guys with that info. Now, onto the story! Enjoy :)

A HUGE thank you to my amazing Beta Cloudstarmoonsky! Without her, this chapter would've never been finished. I want to give a huge apology to all my readers for this incredibly long delay. I have not given up on this story! I am determined to finish it. Even if it takes a while to write a chapter. I'm gonna try an get another chapter ready for next week, that is if I can finish all my homework by then. School is killing me. Anyways, enough with my rambling. And read.
