Tara stopped the car behind roadblocks, gritting her teeth in annoyance. She climbed out quickly,
"Guess we're walking." Buffy seemed slightly surprised at the sudden personality change, but got out to follow her.
"Hey, stop right there ladies." A cop grunted from behind the cones, "No one other than the authorities is allowed on the premise of the hospital." Buffy and Tara exchanged a glance before Buffy stepped forwards with a slight wince,
"Sorry-" The police officer fell unconscious the moment Buffy's fist hit his head, and the slayer winced again. Tara paused to examine him, nodding when she saw even breathing,
"He'll be fine, let's go." They stayed in the shadows while sneaking into the building, which wasn't too hard since the media and helicopters attention was on the police report at the moment. Buffy knocked out the slayers guarding the first floor, the civilians rushing for the doors while they started up the stairway. The second they burst onto the second floor, a bunch of slayers were charging towards them. {How many did Kennedy manage to gather?!} Tara wondered in amazement. Surely SOME of the new slayers knew this was wrong? Taras eyes widened when Buffy grabbed one of them by the back of their shirt and threw them across the room, jumping into the crowd of the rest of them, kicking and punching. Tara's eyes were elsewhere though, searching each room number until they fell upon Willows, freezing in horror. The door was wide open, and Willow was restrained to the bed by a hospital strap and a belt, Kennedy straddled over her, hand hovering over a knife that was embedded in Willows shoulder. Her eyes widened to see Dr. Parker's limp body, tearing up. She was certain that Dr. Parker would have died an honorable death, as she was an honorable woman. Tara locked eyes with Willow, more tears building when she saw the pain and fear in them. She hardly noticed - or even cared about - the evil way Kennedy was glaring at her, with a small smirk.
"TARA GET OMPPH-" Tara's eyes widened when Willow yelled to her, anger bubbling in her seemingly frozen body while Kennedy slapped her hand over Willows mouth and twisted the knife. The muffled cry of pain was enough to thaw Tara's shock and horror. She started running towards the room, anger filling in for courage. Kennedy simply looked up at her with a smirk, climbing off of Willow, who started struggling. Tara knew she didn't really have a chance against the slayer, but her goal wasn't to win a fight, but to get her attention away from Willow. Kennedy struck out, hitting her across the face and sending her to the ground with a small thud. Tara winced, but started to get back up, her eyes locking on Willows briefly. {It's going to be okay..} Tara thought, trying to send the thought to Willow. Willow paused in her struggling, and they just.. Stared at each other. Tara gasped out of the loving stare when hands wrapped around her throat.
"You really thought you could come in here and be Willows little knight in shining armor?" Kennedy sneered, shaking her while she started to choke and kick at her. "Guess again. Once I'm done with you, I'm going to take Willow with me. She'll never see the light of day again. She wont see anything but the inside of our bedroom. And believe me.. We'll have lots of fun in there." Tara managed to land a kick out of anger but Kennedy just snorted. "Try all you want, but neither of you are getting out of this." Tara grunted when she was thrown back to the ground, coughing and cradling her throat with one hand. She flinched away when Kennedy prepared to kick her, shocked when the blow didn't land. When she opened her eyes she found out why. A woman was standing in front of her, wearing a torn hospital gown with a knife in her shoulder. But to Tara's horror, Red hair and green eyes were replaced by dark black, magic crackling at the girls hands. {Was this what she was like when..?} She couldn't even finish the thought, frozen in dismay while Willow stalked towards Kennedy, who was now on the other side of the room, struggling to stand. Tara's eyes snapped to the doorway at Buffys horrified whisper,
"Willow.." Willows deep black eyes fixed on the slayer, her lips forming a sneer before she waved her hand, shutting the door. Tara could hear Buffy pounding on the door, but there seemed to be some sort of magical barrier. Apparently Willow didn't want to deal with Buffy at the moment. Tara remembered Dawn calling this 'Dark Willow', and now she could understand why. She couldn't believe her eyes at the moment. She knew the scoobies description of this, but she couldn't imagine her sweet Willow like this. Now she didn't have to imagine. She was seeing it with her own eyes. Willow had made mistakes in her life, but Tara was certain she could never be evil. Surely she would turn back any second now, right? Her attention snapped back to the scene in front of her when Kennedy started talking,
"Oh, I see. When I do one thing wrong-" Dark Willow cocked an eyebrow,
"One?" Kennedy continued as Dark Willow watched with a blank expression,
"When I do something wrong, I'm immediately hated and need to be stopped, right? But when you kill people - even attempt to kill the people you say you love, you're forgiven and loved still." Willow frowned, blinking,
"I'm nothing like you."
"Right, because you're all honorable-" Dark Willow scoffed, interrupting her.
"I never said I was good. But I'm nothing like you. You're just a waste of oxygen, walking around so sure of yourself, bullying everyone and everything in your path.." Kennedy seemed to have the sense to back up a few steps while Willow approached her slowly, "But I actually have power. I'm not a stuck up child like you." Dark Willow laughed, rolling her eyes at the expression on Kennedy's face. "Oh, can't handle sweet, mousy Willow talking back for once? Heh. I'm not her. You can't bully me. /I/ have the power here."
"Yeah right. You couldn't hurt anyone-" Tara was still unable to move or speak, watching Willows pale lips twist up into a smirk, her eyes rolling again.
"Ask Warren.. Oh wait.. There's nothing left of him. And who did that? It wasn't the squirrels." Kennedy lunged as soon as Willows back was turned, but she simply waved a hand and sent her crashing into the wall. "Little 'Willow' might have gone for the guilty 'I'm so innocent' act, but you know what I say?" Her eyes seemed to go distant for a second, and Tara wondered if she was remembering the day she was shot. "Good riddance. If I could, I'd do it again." A lump grew in Taras throat while tears trickled down her face. Willow suddenly looked at her, her eyes softening sadly for a second. Then she turned back to Kennedy, and anger filled her posture. "And I wish I could have done /this/ sooner." Taras breath hitched when black magic shot from Willows hands, hitting the slayer right in the chest. Tara's hands flew to her ears at Kennedys scream, trembling when her body fell to the ground, convulsing for about five minutes before going limp. And then with a wave of Willows hand, she was gone.

When Willow saw Kennedy choking Tara, something snapped inside her. The belt and strap burned up, letting her rise, a dark feeling rushing through her. The rest was a blur. All she could think of was Tara. Protecting Tara. Saving Tara. Her mind was filled with memories of that horrible day, it seemed like she wasn't the one controlling her words and actions. A whimper from the other side of the room snapped her out of it, horror filling her to see Tara trembling and crying on the floor. A hand went to her hair, pulling a strand in front of her eyes. When she saw black, her eyes widened, snapping back to Tara. The door burst open when her concentration and anger went away, everything that she had just done flying back to her. She saw Buffy rush into the room, looking around, her eyes widening when they fell upon her. Then the slayer rushed to Tara, trying to calm her. Anger filled Willow again, but not at Kennedy. Not at Buffy. At herself. What had she done? She had thought, after going to the coven with Giles, that this could never happen again. She could never be like that again. But she had just killed Kennedy… In front of Tara. Was Tara safe around her? Had she ever been? Had /she/ been the bad one all along? Willow turned, the glass of the window shattering when she jumped into it. She just felt.. Numb as she dropped. Tara's scream never reached her ears.
