He didn't know where he was, running from something he couldn't see. He looked back at the empty street and felt the terror rush through his veins. He couldn't place the feeling that engulfed any sense of security. So he ran. In blind panic followed by whatever was causing his pain. He looked forward and saw the road stretch out forever in front of him. He willed his feet on, trying to escape, hoping this would end. A tiny form lay in the street in front of him. He saw the brown hair flying in the wind and knew in a moment it was her. "Dawn!" He fell to his knees, his old fear throw to the side in favor of the new deeper fear. Pulling her over on her back he looked down at her. She was covered in blood but he ignored the terror running inside him. Whispering her name as loudly as he dared he shook her shoulders. "Dawn? Dawn? You have to get up!" She slowly opened her eyes and reached up to grab his hand. Her hair fell away from her face and on her neck was the new incision of vampires fangs. Reaching out his hand Spike touched the wound softly. Dawn hissed in pain and Spike jumped back as two long fangs grew from the safety of her lips. He fell back, his hand hitting something soft. Spike looked up, into the chocolate colored eyes of Drusilla. She stood with one hand on Angelus' arm. A tiny streak of blood sat at the corner of her mouth but she wiped it away as she smiled. "Spikey... I made you a playmate." Spike got to his knees, looking back at the newly risen vampire still stretched out on the pavement. Vampire Dawn arched her back and ran her fingers through her hair. Rising to her feet she walked over and grabbed a fistful of Spike's hair. Pulling his head back she bent down and set her lips to his. The ferocity in her kiss startled him. He could feel his lips start to bruise as she pressed harder into him. Releasing him, she rose, staring Drusilla right in the eyes. "Well Spikey? Do you like her?" "What have you done to her?" Angelus pushed in front of Dru, Darla hanging on his arm. The blood dripped from his mouth and it smelled of Dawn. Spike rose, feeling Dawn's cold hands running up and down his back. This had been a family affair. "Spike my boy, Have you learned nothing? Family gifts are never refused." "Look where family gifts got you Angelus!" "Spike, my dear grand-childe, anyone can make a mistake. "This was a mistake?" Dru and Darla looked the girl over carefully. "Well Dru she is a little bit skinny." "Of course Grandmum, Spike always liked them skinny." Dru shook her hips slowly and Darla smiled, "If wouldn't be too much of a sacrifice." Spike reached back and grabbed Dawn's arm, "What wouldn't be?" Angelus and Darla shared a knowing look, "This, little Spike." Angelus leapt forward and grabbed Spike. Darla grabbed Dawn and pulled her away from Spike. Angelus kicked Spike's legs out from underneath him, pinning his knees to the ground. Lifting Spike's head so he could see Dawn, Angelus whispered in his ear. "You have a lesson in gratitude to learn son of my childe." Spike looked up at Dawn. She was screaming in rage, fighting Darla's hold on her neck. Her game face fully in the fore, Spike didn't even recognize her young face. Drusilla signaled to Angelus and he brought Spike to his feet. Dru ripped open his shirt and ran a sharp blade across his chest. "Isn't this what you wanted Spike? To have her forever? To love her? To make her strong." Dru stepped back and watched him shiver in pain. She put her fingertips to her forehead and dipped her head from side to side. "That's what the stars told me. You want her. You love her. More then I, more than the Slayer." She looked over at Dawn and smiled. "No loss Spikey, I can take her now." Dru raised a stake and smashed the tip into Dawn's heart. The girl slipped into dust and fell from Darla's fingers. Spike heard his own scream as Angelus threw him to the ground and the trio disappeared into the night. Spike sat up, body bathed in sweat. Dawn sat beside him, eyes wide with worry. "Spike? Are you okay?" He leaned forward and hugged her. She was warm and her heartbeat was strong under her chest. He kissed her forehead and held her hands. She looked at him in shock as he hugged her again, pulling her as close as he could. "Dawn... Dawn... Your all right... Your all right... Oh god Dawn!" "Of course Spike, you were just dreaming." He suddenly felt weak and fell back on the pillow. "It was just a dream?" "Yes, it's okay... I'm here... I'm fine." She jumped up as the phone rang in the other room. Spike watched her go as Dru's words rang inside his head again. "That's what the stars told me. You want her. You love her. More then I, more than the Slayer." The End... |
