Fic: A Day Too Long (3/?, B/W)

["Electronis Zappa" <electronis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here?s part 3. Bit short but it seemed like a good place to stop while
I decide first where I want to go and second how I want to get there. I
still have to decide what I want to do with Anya?s dream for Restless 3,
so that?ll most likely be towards the end of April, unless something
really good just comes to me.
 
Title: A Day Too Long (3/?)
Author: Electronis
Email: electronis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Buffy/Willow eventually
Spoilers: Anything up to and including 403 ? The Harsh Light of Day is
fair game. Slight hints dropped for 711 - Showtime
Disclaimer: All the characters from the show ?Buffy the Vampire Slayer?
belong to ME. I mean ME as in Mutant Enemy, not me as in myself. If only
I were so lucky. Lisa, Amber, Wayne, Clewyn, Duane, and Ray are products
of the paranoid delusions I call my mind.
Feedback: Most definitely.

Summary: Semi-AU, branches off just before the beginning of season 4
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Previously
?California. A town called Sunnydale. There?s a girl there that can help
you with your problem.?
~~~~~~~~~
?Gem of Amara? What?s that??
 
?It makes whoever wears it invincible. Once I find it, she and I are
going to have it out once and for all.?
~~~~~~~~~
He screamed at her while he grabbing a piece of wood and then shoving it
through Harmony?s unbeating heart. ?I?ve got me a new girl now.? hesaid
as he put his arm around the brunette.
~~~~~~~~~
?Would you like to see a picture of her
 
?Sure? both girls answered. He got it out of his wallet and handed it
first to Willow, who then handed it to Buffy when she was done. 
 
?My god Will, this is the one that got away.?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Clewyn questioningly looked at his friend at Buffy?s reaction to the
picture. Duane and Ray looked puzzled
 
?She?s the one your cousin told me about. I saw her stake Amber last
night when I was out keeping tabs on her and Lisa.?
 
?You know about me? About what I am??
 
?You?re the vampire slayer.?
 
?A vampire slayer. There?s another one, but she?s in a coma.? Buffy
corrected.
 
?Wait, vampire slayer? You were following Amber and Lisa? But, Lisa?s
dead.? Duane asked, still puzzled.
 
?Yes. Guys, Clewyn and I have been holding back on you. Remember how
Amber started acting strange?..er after graduation? Did you ever see her
out in the daylight? Someone made her a vampire. We think it was that
week she went up to Oxford. Anyway, the night before we were supposed to
leave, Amber made Lisa a vampire. That?s why we left so soon after the
funeral. I had to get to New Orleans, to Clewyn?s cousin. I knew she
would be able to tell me what I needed to know. She told me to lead them
here, that you could help?
 
?Ok, so how did your cousin know about me?? Buffy asked Clewyn
 
?She?s a watcher. She?s training a girl named?..um Eve I think it was.?
 
?Kind of anticlimactic I?d say. Two ordinary, run of the mill newbie
lesbian vamps, one of whom I?ve already dusted.?
 
?Lesbian? I didn?t know either of them were lesbians? Duane stated.
 
?Uh, yeah. Lisa was bisexual. I was the only person she ever told. A
few times we?d curl up on the couch and look through the most recent
Playboy together or watch Deep Space Nine cause we thought Ezri was
cute. Amber, well, you know it?s been a good long while since I gave a
rat?s ass about what she did.?
 
?Why wouldn?t she tell us she?s bi? She knew I?m gay.?
 
?Duane, the whole TOWN knew you were gay. For Christ?s sake, your
favorite movie is ?The Wizard of Oz?. I know that?s a stereotype, but
come on. Anyway, she didn?t really see a point in telling everyone she
liked girls too, especially since she was more than happy with me.
Besides, that?s not the point. The point is that, yes, that is our
whole story. My last two girlfriends were vamped and they got together,
probably intent on torturing me. I was told to lead them here, and that
you would take care of everything. And you?re half way there. All
that?s left is for you to stake Lisa. But I should probably mention,
her father boxed in the Navy and was pretty good. He taught her how to
defend herself. We?ve sparred a few times and she really knows her
stuff.?
 
?Thanks for the heads up, I?ll be sure to remember that. Anything else
we should know??
 
?Just that we?re playing here again Saturday. We?ll probably stop by
tomorrow night to check out the competition. Other than that, nothing.
 
?Well then we?ll probably see you tomorrow night won?t we??

Spike climbed through the hole he just dug into the crypt, followed
shortly by Lisa.
 
?Looks like this is the place. You look over there and I?ll look here?
He said while he moved towards the body. He found a necklace with an
ornate pendent on it, while Lisa tried on a small gold ring with a green
jewel.
 
?YEOW!? Spike yelled as he grabbed a cross. He quickly threw it
towards the brunette, who caught it with no harm whatsoever.
 
?Well well, looks like I?ll be going out for lunch.? She said as she
dropped through the hole.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Later, Lisa returned to the liar with a body in tow.
 
?Found him by the side of the road changing a tire. Hope you don?t
mind, didn?t want to leave a corpse in the middle of the afternoon to
draw attention, so I made him one of us. He tried putting up a fight,
but it didn?t last long. Plus, I got a car out of the deal.?
 
?Don?t mind at all, pet.? Spike grinned when he recognized the boy.
?Matter of fact, he?ll come in useful with this little ring of ours.
He?s one of the slayer?s friends.?
