Slayer Forever
By Steven Williams
Rating: PG-13 ( I used a bad word )
Disclaimer: I own nothing except for an exceptional amount of debt for a
man my age.
Note: This was written as a response to a challenge I saw here a couple of
day?s ago. I accidentally erased it so I?m not sure if this meets all the
requirements, if not Mea Culpa. Tell me what you think.
Note 2: I'm trying to decide weather to end it, or jump forward in time a
hundred years, or just keep going like I've been. Help me decide.
Dedication: To Carol, who makes me wish I had her imagination, cause I'd
never be bored.
Back Story : I?m gonna mess with cannon for both series here so pay
attention. Firstly Highlander: Season 6 didn?t happen, and Duncan never
killed Richie. 
BtVS: Buffy died at the hands of the master, and became immortal, but no one
thought anything of it cause Xander performed CPR. Then we follow canon
until Becoming part 2 where Willow was killed by Angelus minions when they
attacked the library. Buffy killed Angelus, and stopped Acathla, but never
left town, planning to attend Willow?s funeral before leaving. Because
Willow has now become immortal, Buffy never ends up leaving. The two notice
the Buzz, but not being able to find a source just learn to ignore it. Again
we follow canon until the point where the story starts which is about 2
months after The Body.
Faith watched in awe as the two men faced off with practice swords. The way
they moved was so fluid, so confident, so controlled. The two old friends
had been happy to meet, and now the four immortals were working out. Gunn
and Duncan with swords, and Adam was teaching Willow some ancient martial
arts.
Faith was having trouble deciding who to watch as she could learn so much by
watching either. Finally she decided that she?d probably get more use outof
the hand to hand stuff Adam Pierson was teaching her friend. 
?May I join the class?? Faith asked a smile on her face. 
?You may.? Adam said.
The man didn?t look like he could win any sort of fight that wasn?t
intellectual, hell even his shirt bore an intellectual joke. Willow had
cracked up when she saw the shirt, then explained it to Faith, who?d thought
it was sorta funny. His shirt exclaimed in latin ?If you can read this
you?re over educated.?
Faith and Willow spent the next few hours in all sorts of combat training,
armed and unarmed with the three older immortals. They were both tired,
sweaty, and happy when the fun time ended.
*****
Buffy on the other hand was not in the best of moods, which was bad for the
demons that resided on the hellmouth, cause the only thing that seemed to
calm her down was ripping something to shreds. None of the other immortals
in town would spar with her because she had broken far to many of their
bones recently. So she was out all night, pounding demons into mush. 
When she came home for the third straight night covered from head to toe in
blood and gore, Dawn decided that something had to be done, so she did the
only thing she could think of. She called Willow.
?Can I talk to Willow, please?? She asked of the voice that answered the
phone at Angel Investigations.
?Is that you Dawn?? Cordy asked.
?Yes, it?s sort of urgent.? Dawn replied, trying to get the former
cheerleader to hurry.
?Just a sec, kiddo.?
It was closer to thirty seconds later that Willow?s voice came on the line
?Dawn? What?s up?? 
Dawn hurriedly explained the way Buffy was behaving, and her fears, and when
she was done all Willow said was she?d be on the next bus.
*****
Buffy was stalking the cemetery, hoping for something to kill. The demons
and vamps were getting scarce, most of the smarter ones had already skipped
town. She was about ready to move on to the next cemetery when she sensed
the approach of an immortal. 
?This is Holy Ground, but if you?ll care to step off, we can do this.? Buffy
called out into the night.
?I was thinking of our bed, but if you want to make love in the middle of
the street, I suppose we can try it just this once.? Came the teasing reply
in Willow?s voice. 
Buffy couldn?t believe her ears, her beloved was back, she hadn?t lost her.
?Willow?? She asked afraid that she was hearing things. 
Willow stepped out from behind a mausoleum, her face covered in a smile. ?Hi
Buffy.? 
Willow never saw the slayer move, she just knew that one second she was
standing on the ground, the next she was in her lover?s arms, being kissed
within an inch of her life.
Finally air became more important then kissing to the two women, and they
broke apart.
?When did you get back?? Buffy asked.
?Just now. And from what your sister tells me, just in the knick of time.?
Willow replied, squirming a bit to get the slayer to put her down.
?What do you mean ?just in the knick of time??? Buffy asked as she set her
girlfriend?s feet on the ground, but didn?t let her go.
?Dawn called me, saying that you were acting like a mad woman. I just walked
here from the bus stop and didn?t even see a vamp. What have you been up
to?? Willow calmly replied.
?So Dawn calls and you come running?? Buffy yelled, hurt that her little
sister would go behind her back.
Willow was taken aback by the change in her lover?s mood, from happy to hurt
in less then a second. ?She said that you needed me!? She said softly. ?I
came back because I love you.? Willow waited to see how this would be taken.
?Dawn?s worried about you, afraid to lose you. She?s lost so many people she
loves in the last couple of years. Your mom, and Tara, plus her father?s
rejection of her. She didn?t want to go live with him, but she wanted himto
at least want her to.?
?Dawn?s worried that I?ll leave her?? Buffy asked feeling guilty that she?d
caused her sister to fear for her safety. ?Let?s go home, talk to her, then
I?m gonna make love to you until the sun rises.?
******
Xander looked at his fiancé sleeping draped across his chest, and felt
content. Then he remembered the way Buffy had been acting since Willow left
and felt worried. He knew his friend missed her lover, but he also knew that
other then being there for Buffy there wasn?t much he could do to help. As
he dropped off to sleep he decided that he?d go over there, make breakfast
and talk to Buffy. 
******
Dawn woke up, slowly, because someone was shaking her. This, in her opinion,
was the harshest way to wake up. She finally opened her eyes, and saw her
sister was the cruel monster denying her sleep. ?What?? She muttered trying
to roll over and go back to sleep.
?Wake up. We have to talk!? Buffy said.
?About what?? Dawn asked, catching a glimpse of the clock on her nightstand,
which declared the time to be 1 in the morning. ?And why now?? 
?Because Willow showed up during patrol, and told me that I?d been scaring
you. I think we need to talk.?
?I have school in the morning.? Dawn said.
?I?ll let you stay home tomorrow, now get up and meet us in the living room
? Buffy ordered gruffly through the smile on her face. ?She and Will are a
lot alike? she thought to herself as she walked down the stairs.
She had no sooner sat down in the easy chair when Willow plopped into her
lap.
?Ok, if I can?t sleep, you two can?t make out!? Dawn rebuked the couple as
she came down the stairs, and sat on the couch.
?Dawn, I?ve been thinking about the way I?ve behaved the last couple of days
and you were right to call Willow. I was acting like a mad woman, and I?m
sorry that I scared you.? Buffy said, putting in a valiant effort to
concentrate on speaking with a squirming Willow sitting in her lap.
?You woke me up for that?? Dawn asked, wanting nothing more then to go back
to bed. ?Whatever, if you promise to not do it again I?ll forgive you. Now I
think you and Willow want to be alone.? Dawn rose from the couch and wentto
bed.
?Hmm, want to go to our room and keep her up all night?? Buffy asked before
kissing Willow?s neck.
?Umm, Buffy, don?t forget she knows how to kill us.? Willow replied before
moaning in lust.
?You know, you?re right plus we haven?t had sex on the couch in a long time
? Buff said, before moving to rectify that oversight.
*****
Xander approached the Summers house the next morning through the backyard to
keep Buffy from waking up. He let himself in, and set about making a hearty
breakfast, right after turning on the coffee pot. 
The smell of coffee brewing wafted into the living room, and slowly roused
the entangled women. ?Coffee.? Buffy moaned in desire ?Will, I love you.
Thanks for setting the coffee maker up last night.? Buffy rose from the
couch and walked towards the kitchen nude, intent on the first cup of the
day.
Willow?s drowsy mind finally finished interpreting what her lover had said,
just as Buffy walked through the door to the kitchen. ?Buffy, I didn?t?? she
began only to be interrupted by the sound of her lover shrieking, and glass
breaking. Buffy came flying through the door a half second later. ?Clothes
are good.? She said to herself before turning to the kitchen door and
yelling ?What are you doing in my house, Alexander Harris??
Xander winced when he heard the slayer use his full name ?I?m screwed.? He
muttered to himself, then decided that he?d better explain himself. ?I came
to make breakfast for you and Dawn.? He called back.
?Xander?? Shrieked Willow, as she started scrambling into her clothes.
?Will? You?re back?? Xander asked, starting to come into the living room to
see his friend, only to have the door blocked by a slightly irate slayer.
?Ow!? Exclaimed Xander ?What?s that about?? 
?Cause we?re trying to get dressed.? Buffy snapped back. ?Now cleanup that
broken plate, and we?ll be in there in a minute.?
Buffy finished dressing first and went to wake her sister while Willow
finished dressing. 
?What now?? snapped Dawn, annoyed at being woken again. 
?Xander?s downstairs making breakfast for us, so up and at em.? Buffysaid
before turning and walking out of the room.
?Xander?? Buffy heard squealed behind her, followed by her sister falling
out of bed.
*****
When Buffy walked into the kitchen with her arm around Willow, Xander had
the decency to blush. 
?Hey Will, his face looks like your hair.? Buffy teased.
?Umm, Buff, Umm?? Xander stammered trying to figure out what to say to his
friend, now that he was face to face with her.
?Forget about it, Xander.? Buffy said. ?I mean entirely. Forget what you saw
?
?And don?t tell Anya.? Willow added.
?Done!? Xander said.
?Don?t tell Anya what?? Dawn asked from behind the two women.
?Umm.? Said the three older people in the room.
