While Spike and Bess are on a mission with Angel, Buffy and Annie find themselves embroiled in a life and death struggle in a Sunnydale that is far from home.  Most of their friends are dead; those that remain have changed so much as to be nearly unrecognizable. Can they be trusted to help Buffy and Annie get back home or will they use the opportunity to escape the hell they've been living in and leave the Slayer and her daughter to languish in a dimension ruled by demons? As Buffy tries to keep her daughter safe, she must put her trust in someone - that someone is Spike, but he's changed too. Warnings for sexual situations, character death, angst, Spike/Other Male (not graphic), attempted rape, threesomes including Buffy and Spike.

As Buffy settles back into life after the 'Wish World' and gets ready for a new addition to their family, an old friend pulls the financial rug out from under their fairly comfortable life. They also find that something from Spike's old life isn't as they thought. Will they end up sacrificing the littlest bit or even their own lives in an effort to make an old wrong right?

Warnings for sexual situations, implied rape of a minor (not graphic), gory violence, torture, bloodshed, character death, and what was the other thing? ... oh yeah, angst.

A one chapter interlude. Since so many bad things happen on Buffy’s birthday, last year she declared ‘no more birthdays’, thus forcing Spike to find some creative ways to celebrate the day of her birth. This is his solution. Buffy Birthday Eve.

6.1 Magic --11,000 words

You, who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by
And so become yourself
Because the past is just a good bye.

Teach your children well,
Their father's hell did slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picked, the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.

And you, of tender years,
Can't know the fears that your elders grew by,
And so please help them with your youth,
They seek the truth before they can die.

Counter Melody To Above Verse:
Can you hear and do you care and
Cant you see we must be free to
Teach your children what you believe in.
Make a world that we can live in.

Teach your parents well,
Their children's hell will slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picked, the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.
