A/N: Sorry. This took ages for me to write. This is my longest chapter ever, so i'm quite proud.

anubiset: I would never do anything to hurt poor Xander and Spike . . .well nothing perminant. Weird speech is totally forgiven, i'm just glad you're enjoying so far. Hope you enjoy this chapter too.

It was bright out now, signalling the morning and the Scoobies, including Spike, who they all declared a honorary member, much to Spike�s chagrin, tensed up.
They had made a crude barricade out of Giles�s table and chairs and were sitting behind it as they prepared for an assault sometime as soon as the sun was up. It seemed the only option for the Initiative to eliminate the vampires from the upcoming battle, but they had thought ahead. Putting blankets over the windows to give them the impression they were there to protect the vampires, when in actual fact they had put one more ward up, which allowed the sun not to cause harm on Spike or Xander. This tactic would mean that some of the Initiative soldiers would hopefully go straight for the coverings on the windows while the others would fight and it being a waste of their time would leave them vulnerable for attack. This had been another one of Spike�s ideas and it was a shock to Giles that he was such a great tactician, but then again the amount of time Spike had been undead for meant he had to of learnt something.
The Scoobies were still waiting by the afternoon, no where near relaxing. Buffy was sitting with a double ended axe in her hand. You could tell she was nervous because she was hitting in her palm with the flat side of the axe head. Giles and Willow were next to her.
Giles with a sword in his hand looked eerily calm, which may have had something to do with a talk he and Spike had had about the insurance on Giles� house because after this fight he probably wouldn�t have one left. Giles had looked stunned over that piece of information, but then had came his calm face and he had been wearing it ever since.
Willow looked the most nervous, but the most determined as well. She was going over the wind spell a couple more times, muttering it quietly to herself. She also had a few bottles scattered around her, these were paralysing potions. Once the bottle broke the fumes would knock out those in the vicinity, causing them to seize up and become totally immobile.
Buffy finally couldn�t wait anymore and spoke up, irritation clear in her voice. �They should be here by now. This is the best time to attack, why would they waste it?�
Giles was started to get irritated by Buffy�s show of irritation and he didn�t like it. They didn�t know what to expect from the Initiative soldiers when they attacked and everyone needed to be composed.
�Please calm down Buffy, be patient and wait a while longer.�
�Yeah, shut your trap slayer. Give it time.� Spike then turned back to Xander not even acknowledging the look of utter contempt on her face. They rested their foreheads against one another and stroked through the hair on the napes of their necks, keeping each other calm as well as themselves. They finally pulled apart and smiled until they got back to just waiting.
Almost giving up hope that the Initiative would actually come, the Scoobies were shocked when there was the sound of glass breaking and the area was flooded with gas. As the amount of gas increased the Initiative attacked. The window imploded out into the house. Shards of window falling around in a blizzard of glass and splinters of wooden window frame.
Before they could react the door was being broken open as well. Chunks of wood flew through the air ricocheting of the wall behind them.
�Now Willow!� Giles called before he was uttering the words of the spell and then hurriedly joined by Willow.
As they spoke the words the building gas seemed to collapse in on itself and then change direction. In one huge burst of speed it was then spewing back through the door and window at the oncoming Initiative soldiers.
They watched as the soldiers sputtered and waved furiously at the gas in their faces, even with the gasmasks on they were finding it hard to breathe and see. They weren�t even able to enter the house yet as the gas seemed to settle around them backing them up, further away from the house and the people inside. Finally though, it all dispersed enough for it to be safe to take the masks off, blinking slightly they refocused and started back towards the house.
It was still a bit foggy, but the soldiers went on the offensive, storming the house and the occupants inside. They broke off, some venturing through the window while others went straight through the gaping hole where the door had been, but they got a great shock as did the other half of the soldiers who had gone around to the back. Spike�s idea of the tripwire and nails actually worked.

The team that had gone round the back, first knew something was wrong when they didn�t see any gas after destroying the back door badly enough that it was in shards on the floor. They all tried to rush forward as a unified front into enemy territory, but the first couple of soldiers were unprepared for Spike�s tripwire.
The first soldier flailed uncontrollably as he fell to floor and onto the nails that were sticking up. He landed fast down, he had tried to avert his head, but ended up with a nail going through his ear and as he had tried to stop himself from falling nails were emerging out of hands. The nails being the way they were, which was very close together meant that the line of nails ran all along his head and then impaled the rest of his body. His blood seeped out of his body, quickly coating the floor in an increasing puddle. Another couple of soldiers were behind the first and knocked into him as they fell, impaling him further onto the nails and making them roll heavily and ensuring that they too were caught and hooked. All of the ones that had fallen were bleeding heavily, so much so that their fatigues were thickly coated with it.
One soldier pierced his whole arm as he tried to steady himself from falling, while the other had skewered half his face on a protruding nails as his head made first contact. They both screamed and hollered in agony and were joined by other soldiers that also had fallen. Some getting nails in legs, arms and hands. Each tried in vain to use others around them for stability so they could get up, but they ended up getting more lodged on the surrounding nails.
All yelled fitfully in pain at their predicament, while others that had also toppled on the initial entry gingerly picked themselves back up from lying on not only the dead soldier, but also the seriously injured ones. In spite of this the soldiers were on a mission and didn�t focus on their troubled comrades, but used the now dead first soldier as a bridge to get out of the room and not be hurt by the nails. The sound of his body squishing as more blood poured out from him corpse getting impaled further on the nails in the floor.
However as soon as soon as they were out of the room Willow was in front of them with her paralysis potion. Throwing just 2 she was able to paralyse a couple of the soldiers heading out of the room, effectively blocking the door with their own bodies leaving the others not affected cursing loudly while trying to get the rigid bodies out of the way. Seeing how well the spell worked Willow, with a squeal of delight ran back to the others.

The soldiers around the front were struggling on, the gas had left them with a faint fogginess in front of their eyes, but they rallied together and carried on their attack, not knowing how appallingly the other teams attack had gone.
The remaining Initiative soldiers swarmed into the house through the broken window and door. Shrieks echoed through the house as the soldiers impaled themselves on the nails.
The ones that had jumped through the window had failed to look down and ended up skewering their feet, they initially didn�t notice the pain until they tried to carry on walking. One soldier lifted up a booted, bloody foot, then realised that there was nowhere for it to be placed back down as all the nails were too close together to get any space to alleviate the pain. So he ended up dealing with the agony as best he could, which meant balancing on the one foot still speared by the nails with the other elevated and dripping crimson drops on the floor, leaving him faint and wobbling slightly.
The ones who had decided to not move their feet at all stood stock still, unable to move at all for fear of injuring themselves further and the mere thought of moving anymore then they had to sent shocks of imagined pain through their bodies.
The group that had opted for the front door soon got acquainted with Spike�s tripwire and like the team that had gone around the back found themselves pierced on the nails. This time there were a few more people laying dead and also a couple more injured. They had been stabbed through arms or legs leaving them effectively immobile and unable to even worry about fighting. There were basically piles of shrieking, hollering soldiers in a whole heap of pain. And half the floor was covered in their blood, slowly seeping into and staining the floorboards, what started off as crimson, but then seemed to turn into dark brown as it dried.
Again the remaining, uninjured soldiers showed a blatant disregard for their dead comrades, using them as a plank, an object instead of respecting their lifeless bodies. It made even Spike sickened by what looked like the show of utter disdain towards people who before then, were considered friends.
As they walked along the broken bodies the distinct sound of squishing and cracking could be heard. The weight from the living bodies walking on the dead ones made bones crack and blood seep out even more from the pressure of the nails digging into the bodies they still impaled.
From behind their crude barricade Willow was able to throw her last couple of paralysis potions, freezing all the soldiers. It made the house seem much quieter as the sounds of pain and gut wrenching agony stopped from those hit by the potions and the main sounds were the remainder of the team, shouting to push harder at the paralysed bodies of their comrades, so they could get into the house and finish their mission.
Rapid footsteps could be heard form the back of the house meaning only one thing, the other half of the Initiative team had moved the their paralysed comrades out of the way and the Scoobies had to ready themselves for hand to hand combat.
The group of soldiers appeared from around the corner brandishing their weapons for the first time since they had got near the house. Poised and ready to fire they aimed their weapons at the slowly rising forms of the Scoobies.
There was a slight sound of the weapons charging and then . . .they slowly faded. Giles, Buffy and Willow let out the breath they were holding and Spike and Xander grinned and gave a faint chuckle at the shocked look the soldiers were sporting over the fact the guns weren�t working, the spell had worked.
The soldiers looked oddly confused and began shaking their weapons, trying to load them up again, but nothing worked. They all started to give off the faint sent of nervousness, which caused Xander and Spike to start smirking. The scents of nervousness went up a notch. However the soldiers still had their orders to follow, so holding their guns like clubs they charged at the group in front of them. Hoping that from sheer determination they could win the battle.
The Scoobies prepared their weapons and readied for the upcoming fight. Xander and Spike opted for hand to hand, seeing as how without their weapons the soldiers were utterly defenceless. Buffy held up her axe, she looked at it realising that she could kill the soldiers with it and that didn�t seem to faze her. She understood that if they had a chance, they�d kill her and she wasn�t ready to die, again.
The soldiers were the first to charge, believing their own superiority would help them prosper in the fight ahead, little did they know how wrong they were. They may have been pumped full of strength enhancing, mind controlling drugs, but that was nothing compared to the force of the Scoobies.
They attacked full force, Xander and Spike taking at quite a few by just snapping their necks. Buffy was using her axe, but it was blocked by the soldiers using their guns as a way of defending the attacks. Giles was having much the same problem and the fact the soldiers were stronger then they looked, didn�t help. Willow was the worst struggling to use her baseball bat on any approaching soldiers, she really wasn�t up for killing anyone and she was more for the magic didn�t have that much upper body strength.
As they each carried on taking out any members of the Initiative that came at them, they noticed that the other group that had been stopped at the front door had made their way through and were entering the fray. However half of them diverted off as expected to pull down the curtains so as to take Xander and Spike out of the running.
After pulling them down, they were shocked to see that the sunlight had no affect on the vampires who, were still killing off the remainder of the men. Worried they still waded into the fight even after seeing the smiles that showed on Xander�s and Spike�s faces at their predicament. Most of the soldiers went down by their hands and usually accompanied with chuckles of glee from Spike, who hadn�t enjoyed himself so much in a long time.
In the end the soldiers were either injured, unconscious or dead. The dead had head bent in wrong angles sword wounds, where they�d been slashed and stabbed and slice wounds from Buffy�s axe. She couldn�t do anything more then that because she really couldn�t get over the fact that they were humans she was battling.
However the blood from dead or alive soldiers still curdled on the floor, drying into blackness that Giles could only look at in a vague sense of horror. Spike on the other hand thought it was a waste of good blood, but then again from what he smelled of it, he wouldn�t of wanted to touch the stuff.
When there were no more sounds of pain filling the house they gathered together to go over what they would do next. Spike knew some people that could get rid of the bodies and not just dump them somewhere, but use them for their own needs, no one wanted to ask what those needs were. Willow and Giles could help patch up the injured, the battle was over, they had won and now it was time to help those in need of medical attention.
Once the house was cleared of the dead and the rows of nails and tiny shards as well as huge chunks of glass were moved, the group got down to their next order of business. Taking down the Initiative; and they had a whole bunch of Initiative soldiers to help them, once Spike got through to them.
