Giles handed Spike a glass of scotch and guided him to the couch. Spike drank greedily from the glass but seemed to relax. He sat quietly. His motionless form seemed wrong.
Giles cleared his throat as he looked at the vampire, “What were you thinking man? You could have gotten yourself, Madeline, or Willow killed!”
“Needed to find the piece that fit, that made me fit.” He ran his hands over his face, “It’s all just so loud.”
“Giles I’m gonna take him home. I think he’s about done for today.” Willow gave a sad smile as she reached down for Spike. “Come on big bad, I’ll even do the dishes but you owe me Mr.”
Spike snorted in amusement. He stood, ignoring Willow’s hand. He swaggered towards the door trying to portray his attitude of old. He stopped next to Tara and gave her a sideways look, “You can see it Glenda?”
“Y-yes. It will get better easier just don’t fight it.”
Spike nodded as he left the apartment. Willow followed closely behind him. She was almost to the door when Tara’s gentle hand made her stop. Willow turned and looked at her former lover, sadness and guilt etched into her features.
“Willow, your aura,” Tara looked down, “it’s different. Changed. The darkness is blending with the light, it’s very unstable right now. Be careful.”
“Thank you.” Willow gave a soft smile and followed Spike out the door.
They walked in silence for several minutes. The night air kissed their skin. Willow hugged her arms around her body for warmth. She felt her whole body tremble with a shiver as the cool air pulled at her clothing. She felt the weight of Spike’s duster on her shoulders and buried herself deep in the leather. His scent filled her and she took a deep breath. She glanced up at Spike and gave him a gentle smile.
“Sorry bout back there.”
“What are you sorry for Spike? You didn’t do anything wrong!” Willow looked at him wide eyed and worried. “I should be apologizing! I went all black witch when you were gone.”
He cocked an eyebrow at her and smirked, “Bet that looked right funny. Did Rupes piss ‘imself?”
“No but they looked at me like I was the living embodiment of the plague.” Willow pouted and looked at the ground.
Spike stopped walking and grabbed her by the arm. He placed one finger beneath her chin and tilted her head up. His eyes burned into hers before he pulled her to his chest. He held her close to his chilled body in a tight hug.
“They hate wot they don’t understand luv.” Spike ran his fingers down her back. “Would you shut the hell up? I’m trying to talk to the girl!”
Willow chuckled, “They still haven’t found jobs then?”
“No not a one. All their babblin’ and banterin’ just seems to be gettin’ louder as the night goes on. Hey think we can skip the crypt tonight and just watch a movie or something of the like instead?” He asked as he pulled away from her a little. His blue eyes darted around the area.
“Sure whatever you want.” Willow smiled up at him.
“Popcorn. Buttery popcorn. That’s what I want.”
Willow laughed at his antics and started to walk towards her house.
“Look Jr. a fag and his dog.” Spike and Willow turned quickly to see two men standing in the darken street behind them.
“Don’t know Ryan I think I wouldn’t mind fucking that red head.” The smaller dark haired one said as he leered at Willow.
Spike growled baring his human teeth. “The wanna be punk got some nads on him Jr. see that?” Ryan tilted his head back and laughed.
“What do you think?” Jr. smirked as he looked at Ryan. “I get the red head and you can do what ever you want to the punk.”
“Spike?” Willow looked at him fear and concern etched into her features.
“They’re human Willow I can’t do anything.” Spike said as he pointed to his head.
“Spike?! Did you hear that Ryan your boy’s name is Spike.” Jr. laughed. He went silent just as quickly as he had started laughing. His blue eyes burned into them. He snapped his head back before letting a high pitched laugh escape his lips.
Ryan started with the same high pitched laughter before letting lose a loud howl. Jr. and Ryan trained their eyes on the two Scoobies. Willow cast a nervous glance towards Spike. In the distance they could hear the high pitched cackling of other human animals.
“They don’t sound human Spike.”
“Neither does Xander. I still can’t hit him.”
“Oh.”
“It’s time to have some fun Ryan. The pack is hungry.” Jr. and Ryan leapt from the ground towards the pair. Spike braced himself for impact. He knew first hand how hard these guys could hit and he was not looking forward to it.
Spike heard Willow’s bag hit the ground as she took in a startled breath. He felt the heat of power wash over him. He turned his eyes towards Willow in time to see her body blaze to life. Her hair cascaded around her head in raven and golden streaks, her eyes shown brightly in the darken night, and her lips took on a golden hue with pitch black outlines.
She reached out and grabbed his hand before speaking, her voice light and airy. “Freeze and bind and drain their power.”
Spike followed along translating as he had before, “conxelacion e se xuntan e drenar o seu poder.” “Stop their harmful acts this hour” “Pare os seus actos prexudiciais nesa hora.”The attackers stopped mid leap and hung motionless in the air. Their bodies were still positioned to attack. Willow released Spike’s hand and walked around to the back of the two men. Her body’s light filling the night with an eerie glow and the shadows of the still figures danced along the empty streets.
“What did we do?” Spike asked as he walked around the two boys, poking at their still forms. He reached into Jr’s back pocket and pulled out his wallet. “David L. Guthrie, proud member of the Sunnydale Library, public transportation, registered democrat, and holder of absolutely no cash.” Spike pushed the wallet back in his pocket before standing next to Willow.
Willow giggle, “Madeline had done this to me a few times when my powers grew out of control. They are frozen, bound, and basically just calming back down. In a few minutes they should be released and they will either be cured or just really tired.” The power drained from her body and she smiled.
“I think I like this mixed Willow better than dark Willow.” Spike pulled her up against his body, rested his chin on her head, and waited to see what happened with the hyena boys. “How much longer do you figure this will last?”
“Not much,” her green eyes sparkled with mischief.
As she spoke the frozen men were released from their hold and continued their flight. Instead of landing on Spike and Willow the boys fell to the ground in a tangled mess of limbs. Ryan and Jr. exchanged looks before tilting their heads back and howling. The howls of countless others answered.
Willow and Spike exchanged a look of panic as the sounds of wild animals came closer. “Luv, hate to state the obvious but I think we should run.”
“Agreed!” Willow nearly screamed as she and Spike took off full paced towards her house.
Spike held back not wanting to leave Willow in the preverbal dust. He could feel the bodies of the others coming closer to them. He reached out and grabbed her hand, pulling her faster. He could see her house in the distance and sent a prayer to what ever god was listening that they’d make it.
