Between The Lines

Buffy, Willow, Xander, and Giles drove in silence. The last few days 
had been hectic to say the least. They had almost managed to lose 
their friendship, all because Spike knew how to play them. Adam's 
plan had almost worked.

Adam just made one mistake. He underestimated how strong their 
friendship really was. In the end he had just made it stronger. 
Their secrets were no longer secrets. Their worst fears were in the 
open. They now knew each other better, They were a stronger team 
then ever.

They were driving back to the Summer's residence after the final 
battle with the Inniative and with Adam. The battle was all too 
surreal. Demons versus soldiers. It would have been a massacre.

They had barely found room 314. Buffy smiled to herself, Xander 
really would have made a good soldier. He definitely knew how to 
shoot a gun. He had saved their butts more then once.

The final battle with Adam was intense. The power she had gotten was 
amazing. With one hand she had grabbed Adam's power source right out 
of his chest. The spell had worked but now the whole group was wired. 

Buffy looked out the window. A sudden thought came to her mind. She 
wondered what happened to Riley.

Spike walked back into the mausoleum he was using as his home. He was 
pissed. Adam had used him, and Spike hated to be used. Adam had no 
intention of removing the chip from his head, Spike knew that now. 
Adam was playing him, like he played the Slayer and her friends.

Spike however had made a sort of amends. He saved Buffy's sidekicks 
from certain doom. They had decided not to stake him. In Spike's 
mind they were even. Well almost even.

Spike smiled when he thought of the gift he had given the Slayer 
without her even knowing. Well it wasn't a gift actually. He enjoyed 
doing it, and he wasn't sure Buffy would be happy he did it. Spike 
didn't care thought. 

While the others were helping the soldier-boys escape from the 
Inniative, Spike had run into Riley in full I am half-demon hear me 
roar form. 

"I'm gonna beat you to life." Riley said.

"You're even less funny as a demon, farm boy." 

"I'm gonna enjoy this." Riley smiled.

"So am I." Spike pulled out a gun.

"You can't kill me, remember."

"You're a demon now. " Spike shot Riley right between the eyes, "I can 
do whatever the bloody hell I want to."

Spike smiled at the thought. He really enjoyed killing farm-boy. It 
was almost worth still having the chip in his head. 

Almost.
