I've never written a proper crossover before (unless you count "Animal Farm" or "The Jeff Corwin Experience"), so I decided to give it a go.  Apologies in advance to diehard "S.H.I.E.L.D." fans.  I don't know the canon as initmately as the Buffyverse, and there's a good chance I've goofed on minor details.  Also, this is a Buffy story set against a S.H.I.E.L.D. backdrop, so the exact when of the story is purposefully vague.  Sort of mid-S2, during a lull between crises. 

Spoilers for S.H.I.E.L.D. (through mid-S2) and the Marvel Universe in general, obviously, but if you haven't watched "S.H.I.E.L.D." and don't care to, you can always consider the characters you don't know as OCs.

Story is complete at ~30K words.  I borrow elements of S8 comics, but this is AU from "Chosen" onward.  Partially beta'd by Fox, who watched "S.H.I.E.L.D." just so they could beta this for me.  Talk about commitment to being the best beta ever!

Not my characters, etc.

Currently unbeta'd from this point on.  If you catch anything, let me know (it's been a long time since I've posted without a beta). 

Thanks for the reviews!

Since a couple of people mentioned it - it may seem like this follows S8 canon, because I borrowed some names and elements of S8.  However, as I mentioned in the first chapter, this does not follow S8.  Forget whatever you know or don't know about the comics.  I debated whether or not to use the name Twilight, but in the end 1) I'm terrible at naming things on my own, and 2) it amuses me.  That's all.  :)
