“Can you feel it?” Spike suddenly asked, stopping Buffy.
None of them knew how long they had been walking. The silence had
become unnerving, both of them were on the edge, and the long
waiting was putting a stain on them
“Feeling what?” Buffy asked rubbing her eyes with her open palms.
Spike closed his eyes, a tiny smile forming on his lips, “Them,
Red and the Watcher…can’t you feel how strong they’re getting?”
Buffy stood next to him; she couldn’t help the smile which crossed
her lips. She could almost see Willow’s resolve face and the
determination in Giles’ eyes. “They’re on to something…” she
whispered.
“We are close…” Spike said in a low voice. Buffy frowned when he
morphed in his game face. She realized she hadn’t seen him in his
demon face since they had gotten into the tunnels.
She closed her eyes, feeling a strength coming from deep within
herself, so powerful it almost choked her.
“I can feel it…” she whispered.
Just as Spike had taught her when they had entered the tunnels,
she blocked out her feelings. She let the strength she was feeling
filling her, her skin itched with a warmth, a fire like she had
never experienced before.
The battle was really beginning.
