‘What? What about Willow?’ Spike said shocked over the outburst, even though he should be used to them by now, but it was hard following Xander’s train of thought sometimes.
‘No time Spike. I’ll tell you on the way.’ And Xander was running out the house.
‘On the way where?’ Spike called before he too was running out of the house trying to catch up with Xander.
They stood outside Giles’ house, Xander still trying to build up the courage to knock on the door. He had told Spike on the way that they were going to see the others earlier then they had planned, so Willow with her computer knowledge could look at the earpiece. Maybe even Buffy could give them some info on what was going down in Sunnydale, but right now he didn’t even have enough guts to knock on the door. Eventually, sick of waiting Spike knocked for him.
Buffy was the one to answer the door. ‘Xander what are you doing here?’
‘What, no hello?’ he joked, but turned serious quickly, ‘I need to talk to you all, it’s something important.’
‘Xander I . . I don’t know if I can let you in.’
‘Buffy please, it’s really impor . . . .’ he got interrupted as Giles appeared in the doorway.
‘Buffy who *are* you talking to . . . .Xander?’
At the mention of Xander’s name Willow was at Buffy’s and Giles’ side in an instant. ‘What? Xander! Oh my gosh . . . Come in, come in.’
Giles and Buffy both stood open-mouthed as they witnessed Willow’s total lack of worry over inviting a vampire into the house.
‘Um . .excuse me luv.’ Spike called from the other side of the door, still blocked by the barrier.
Willow turned back to the still open door at the sound of Spike’s voice and looked slightly shamefaced, ‘Oh sorry Spike, come in, but you better behave yourself.’
He gave a grin as he entered the house, but was suddenly pushed up against the wall with a stake close to his heart, Buffy spoke straight to Spike. ‘You know what will happen if you don’t behave, right?’ Spike nodded, he could tell by the look in her eyes and the stake pressed to his chest what she had in mind for him if he didn’t control himself.
After Buffy let go of Spike he adjusted his clothing and looking like he didn’t have a care in the world, sauntered over to an available chair.
Xander and Willow had continued talking to each other, not paying attention to the show of hostility between Buffy and Spike.
‘I’m so glad you’re here Xander. I got all your postcards, but I still can’t believe that you went all around the world. Was it fun?’
‘It was great, but don’t ask me to speak any of the languages, you know what I’m like with foreign words and phrases.’ Willow gave a small laugh.
‘Yeah I remember from me trying to tutor you.’
They sat down together on the couch opposite the still unconscious Riley. Willow saw Xander glancing at Riley’s still figure and decided to fill in the silence between them.
‘So now you’ve met Buffy’s new man, Mr Riley Finn.’ Xander turned sharply at the mention of Riley’s name.
‘Did you say ‘Finn’?’
‘Um . . .yeah. Riley Finn.’ That started off Xander’s growling, which was then joined by Spike’s. He realised that Spike must have been eavesdropping on the conversation, but didn‘t care right now because the man in front of him was one of the people involved with the group that had taken Dru and Oz. Spike and Xander glanced at each other as they heard the signs of Riley’s current rise to consciousness.
A groan came from the corner Riley was in as he began to wake up. His head hurt with the force of someone jackhammering concrete and he was pretty sure that little birds weren’t suppose to be flying around his head. After blearily looking around he came face to face with one of the vampires he’d met earlier, Xander was it. He tried to speak, but all that came out were garbled words, however in that instance Xander vamped out and punched him in his face with such force that he was sure he had some teeth missing. His head pounded even more.
‘What did you do with *my* family?’ Xander snarled his fangs snapping in Riley’s face, but Riley still looked dazed from the punch and didn’t say anything.
It had been a while since anyone had spoken and the silence was heavy in the room. Although Xander could tell Riley was slightly scared he still wasn’t talking.
Finally Buffy broke the silence. ‘So, what is this about Xander?’
‘Ask *him* Buffy.’ he said pointing to Riley. ‘He knows what happened.’ he growled low in his throat and punched Riley in his mouth again, which lost the military man a couple more teeth.
Xander walked over to Spike who had been sitting watching him cautiously since he had punched Riley the first time. Xander went and sat by Spike, so close that their legs touched and they clutched onto each others hands.
‘We should have built up the wards better Spike . . If . . . If we just made it so that it affected humans we wouldn’t be in this mess.’ he whispered intensely.
‘Xan we didn’t know some military people would come along and do . . .whatever it was they did. We just didn’t plan well enough. We could have taken out any human that came along, but we didn’t count on them being the way they were . . .’ he drifted off, not really knowing what to say.
‘Yeah I know, I just want them back.’ he rested his forehead against Spike’s and gave an unneeded deep breath.
‘Xander you still haven’t told me what’s going on.’ Buffy stated, looking thoroughly annoyed. He then got up from his place with Spike and finally told her and everyone else what had happened.
Willow was examining the earpiece that Xander had given her while Buffy was trying to get some information from Riley. ‘Why Riley? Why did you do it?’ she started to look confused, ‘I thought I had an in with the Initiative now. I thought we were all a team, but . . .were you just using me?’
Riley looked away not confirming or denying the suspicions from Buffy. He had a serious worry he was going to fail his mission and right now that seemed more important then Buffy’s feelings, especially with the way she had befriended the hostiles in the room.
Spike watched as Buffy walked away from Riley and he got a cold glint of determination in his eyes as he stalked over to him. However as soon as Riley saw him get within reaching distance he was trying to get out of the chair, which amused Spike to know end as he pushed Riley back down into his seat. The push was so hard that Spike was sure it would leave bruises. Riley looked up at Spike and they locked eyes and started to glare at each other angrily before Willow’s voice broke their staring match.
‘Well it seems that whatever signal you picked up has gone, probably from a frequency change. They may have found out they left one of these behind.’ she sighed heavily, ‘Sorry I couldn’t be more helpful.’ she finished.
‘No worries Willow. We’ll still get the information we need.’ Xander said looking pointedly at Riley.
Spike made sure his face was up close and personal to Riley’s as he vamped out, which gave him a thrill as Riley flinched. ‘You really don’t have a decision here Riley. Now so everyone can hear, what are you and your military cronies up to?’
‘I don’t have to tell you *things* anything.’ Spike could tell Riley was trying to veil his worry by playing it cool, but it wasn’t working and Spike had already had enough of him. He wondered if anyone minded him playing with Riley a little. Ah well it didn’t really matter if they did.
SNAP!! Riley’s scream deafened everyone in the room as Spike snapped his little finger on his right hand, so much so that the bone protruded outwards for all to see and the blood dribbled down from his hand to wrist. A cry from Buffy was also heard, which made Spike turn to her. ‘Oh my God Spike. What are you doing?’
‘I’m getting information. Remember me, vampire.’ he gestured to himself with a wave of his hand. ‘I don’t care that he’s your boyfriend, he’s part of somethin’ that has some of my family and I won’t stand for that. I have ways of makin’ people talk and this is the least worse of ‘em, so deal. . .ok’ Spike’s eyes glowed gold, warning her to just shut up before he turned back towards Riley and his whimpering over his finger.
‘Now Riley that wasn’t what I asked, was it? So tell me again, properly this time. What. Are. You. Up to?’ And he placed his hand near the next finger showing Riley that he wasn’t messing around. And it took one whole hand of broken fingers before Riley sang like the canary he was.
