Angelus didn't even turn around towards Spike, despite his comment. He kept his dark eyes on Willow, a small smirk on his pale face--smug, challenging--as Willow desperately cried out. "That's the difference between you and me, Spike," Angelus said, his eyes still focused on Willow as he casually twirled the knife around his fingers. "I have patience for the kill. Waiting til just the right moment...when the blood is rushing from fear...warm..." He paused, an idea churning in his sadistic mind. "But...since Willow happens to be the most expendable of the Buffy gang, I guess I wouldn't mind speeding up the process just a little. "
Suddenly, in a swift motion, Angelus plunges the knife into her hand. The point goes straight through, piercing the arm of the chair. He coolly walks back to the desk, anticipating her scream. He takes out a small blow torch. Before he flicked it on, Angelus paused because he saw a flash of light came from the window. Another human scent was nearby. He heard rustling and then silence. After a moment's passing, he snickered a bit.
Looking at Spike, he said, "Looks like we have someone who wants to join us. Why don't you go and get who ever is out there. Make sure no one feels left out, mm Spikey boy?"
He flicks on the torch and approaches Willow with it. "It won't be long now," he states, his voice low.

Taking one final look in the window and watching Angel stab the knife through Willow's hand into the chair and seeing him picking up the blowtorch, Dawn widened her eyes then quickly moved away from the window still waiting for Buffy to pick up on the other end of the phone. She didn't see Angel turn toward the window or hear him as he sent Spike to see what was going on outside.
Shaking her head, she got the voicemail and spoke quickly into it in hushed tones. "Buffy...c'mon...pick up..." Sighing, she furrowed her eyebrows "Look, I know I wasn't supposed to leave the house at night without someone coming with me but I was alone and you were out on patrol. I had to get some of the books I left from my locker."
Looking back over her shoulder, she bit her lip as she rounded the corner of the building "Buffy...Willow's in trouble. Angel and Spike's got her in one of the classrooms. You've got to come..." Hearing the voicemail beep, she glared at the phone "...quickly...Damned timed messages..." Reaching into her backpack, she pulled out one of the stakes that she had... 'borrowed'...from her sister. "Damn it...I can't do this on my own.."

Spike flinched when Angelus drove the knife through Willow's hand. He wasn't expecting it, and honestly he didn't want it to happen, he had the biggest impulse to help, comfort Willow. That was a stupid idea though, if he did help they would both be dead.
He turned towards the window when Angelus suggested that he go and get who ever was out there. Without a word he turned and walked out of the classroom, outside to where Dawn was on the phone trying to get in touch with Buffy.
He approached her. Unsure what he was going to do, maybe she should let her get Buffy, he needed her help anyhow if he were to save Willow.
He put her hand to her mouth to keep her from screaming and put a finger to her mouth as a gesture to keep quiet. With the same finger he gestured for her to follow him.

Blinking and freezing, feeling Spike place his hand around her mouth, Dawn cried out into the hand and looked over her shoulder at him. Seeing him gesturing for her to be quiet and to follow him, she struggled briefly remembering being told not to trust him in the past.
She had given her trust to him before because he acted like he wanted to help them but this escapade that they were putting Willow through was starting to make her trust in him diminish.
Narrowing her eyes at him, she shook her head wanting to yell at him and struggle against him again but then saw the look in his eyes. He looked like he wanted to help them once again, but she still wasn't sure.
Furrowing her eyebrows and clutching the stake in her hand, she followed him as she whispered "Spike...I don't know what the hell you're up to...but if you're trying to kill Willow like Angel is...I swear you'll be the first I dust..."

"Shut up" Spike ordered Dawn. "I'll keep that in mind" he responded sarcastically to her empty threat, "but I'm not trying to save Willow. I just don't know how to do that without him killing both of us. He was so much easier to fight as Angel."
"Now that your here though, I need you to get Buffy and fast. He knows that someone else is out here, I'll tell him that it was just a cat." His voice was barely audiable as he spoke in whispers. "Just run to her, don't stop" he pushed her in the direction.
"I hope you haven't had too much fun without me" he said as he entered the room, his heart filled with relief when he saw that Willow was still alive. He turned to Angelus, "it was just a cat, I scared it away" he lied, hoping that while Angelus was on permenant vacation that he didn't suddenly become a lie dector.

Narrowing her eyes at Spike as he ordered her to get her sister, Dawn furrowed her eyebrows "Why are you helping us?" Hearing him tell her to shut up, she gasped as he pushed her in the general direction to get her sister.
Blinking and looking over her shoulder at him, she furrowed her eyebrows, uncertain whether or not to trust him. Frowning, she nodded then ran down the street. Thinking to call Buffy one more time, she dialed the number then ran toward the graveyard remembering Buffy would normally be there patrolling.
Reaching the graveyard and looking around, she kept a watchful eye out for her sister while remembering to hide herself behind headstones and keeping an eye out for any vampires or demons or other things that go bump in the night.

Screaming out in pain as Angel drove the knife through her hand, Willow let her head slump down to her chest for a minute not able to feel her hand at all through the pain to move it. Looking back up, she thought she heard a familiar voice outside and looked past Angelus toward the window then looked rapidly back at him before she let on that someone was indeed out there. Watching as he sent Spike out to confront Dawn, she bit her lip then felt the dull ache of pain, throb through her arm. Looking at Angel, she leaned back in the chair "Angel....Angelus...I...I'm sorry for everything I've done in the past...but do you really think th...that this'll bring Buffy back to you? I...it's not.."
Feeling tears threaten to course down her cheeks, she turned her head and looked at him "You don't have to do this..." Thinking she could reach the Angel that she knew, she balled up her other hand "I...I can help you...become yourself again...the Angel that we know and even love..." Knowing she was babbling, she looked like she was trying to buy time as she was going over all the spells that she had memorized, thinking she knew a few that didn't require any ingredients but were there really any that could help her escape?

Angelus stood behind her chair with the torch, watching her babble on, and on...and he really did try not to laugh. But this whole thing was just so humorous, he stifled out a snicker. Hands on the back of her chair, with sarcastic over-dramatic flare he said, "But Willow...I'm just so heartbroken I don't even know what to do with myself. I just need to be loved, I need Buffy's attention so badly," He started to snicker. Angelus grabbed Willow's hair, pulled it backwards, and forced her to look up at him. "This isn't about getting Buffy back. Can't you see? This is about making the rest of her life, which won't be long, a living hell." He pushed her head forward as he let go and walked around to the front of her.
"The Angel that you knew is dead. Got it? Just like you're going to be."
Spike came back in and he was disappointed to find that he didn't bring another person to the party. He grinned at Spike's comment. The young vampire never changed. He always did think he was clever. Angelus was sure he caught a human scent outside the window. Angelus glanced at Spike for a long while as he slowly gripped the knife lodged in Willow's hand. A grin slowly appeared on Angelus' face and he twisted the knife, aiming to cause Willow more pain before approaching Spike. He had a plan to confirm his suspicions.
"Spike, Spike, Spike..." He said, strolling over to him. He slapped a hand on his shoulder. "How long have we known each other, hmm? Hundred or so years, give or take? And I know we haven't always gotten along...I mean sometimes I couldn't help myself with Dru but..." he laughed a bit and said, "...but thats beside the point. I always get all the fun. I never really let you have the chance to shine so," Angelus pushed him along over to Willow. "I'm going to let you do the honors. Finish her off."

Yelling out as Angel grabbed her hair and yanked her head back to look up at him, Willow's thoughts went askew, making her lose her concentration on trying to find a spell to get her out of this mess. "Make her life a living hell even though there's not much left? You're wrong...she's going to dust you and make you pay for killing Xander and hurting me..."
Feeling him let go of her hair, she groaned in pain from the knife in her hand then cried out again as he twisted the blade as Spike walked in. Widening her eyes and hearing what Angel said about letting Spike finish her "Spike...don't...please...you don't have to..." Looking quickly at the window and remembering what she heard outside, she bit her lip and looked back at Angel as her thoughts returned to the spells she had learned.
Furrowing her eyebrows, she looked back at Spike plaintively "Spike...please...you don't have to...don't do it..."

Blinking and running along the gravesites, Dawn furrowed her eyebrows as she searched for her sister. Seeing a vampire come lumbering between some trees, she cried out and quickly ducked down behind a tombstone. She knew she couldn't risk being caught when she had to help Willow.
Turning on her heels and watching as the vampire came to a stop behind a tree, apparently looking out from behind it at something, Dawn furrowed her eyebrows and saw Buffy standing with her back to it then widened her eyebrows and stood as the vampire started going after Buffy.
Reaching into her pocket for one of the stakes she 'borrowed' from her sister, Dawn quickly moved from grovestone to gravestone before lunging at the vampire as he approached Buffy's back "Buffy!! Look out!!" Seeing the vampire turn, surprised to see Dawn, she used that opportunity to drive the stake through his chest.
Blinking and watching as the vampire turned to dust, she looked back at her sister and grinned a little "What? You think I never watched you?" Frowning, she slipped the stake into her pocket and bit her lip "But enough of that....Willow's in trouble. Angelus has her at the high school...and strange enough, Spike let me go get you..."

Buffy looked at her watch with a sigh, noticing how long she'd been here for. Surprisingly, the place was packed with vampires tonight and she couldn't help but be worried over that. But luckily, she was there to make sure none of them exited the Graveyard, dusting them before they could even take more than a few steps towards the exit.
She was exhausted, in all honesty, and quite dirty too. "I so can not wait to get home... shower and bed... that sounds like a good plan." Buffy muttered to herself, pushing her hair out of her face. Hearing a noise beneath her, she stood right next to a grave, knowing one would be coming out of it soon. She was so intent of waiting for the vampire to arise that she failed to notice any behind her.
Then a sudden yell caused her to swing around and she frowned upon seeing Dawn there. "What are you doing here?" Buffy scolded her little sister and moved to help Dawn, but it seemed she had it under control. She raised an eyebrow at Dawn. "That's my worry... you watch me TOO much."
Buffy's expression turned from stern to worry and despair and what her sister told her next. "Angelus? First Xander, now Willow? Oh, he is gunna be dust!" She growled, her tiredness making her even more grumpy with Angelus' war against her. "Let's go!" Buffy started running towards the high school, knowing Dawn would be following right behind her. Buffy ignored the part about Spike, again not in the mood to ponder over why he was helping them instead of Angelus. But knowing him, it was probably another excuse for him to say how good he was now...

Spike flinched as Angelus placed a hand on his shoulder. He listened to what Angelus was saying, trying to calculate his intentions. When he found out, he could of sworn that his heart began beating again, a terrible pain filled his chest.
He turned to Willow, her begging made this even harder. He crossed the classroom, to where Willow was seated. The knife still protruding from her hand. The aroma of blood still filled the air.
He bent down to her level, stared into her eyes. He placed a hand on the hilt of the knife, and with a deep breath, he pulled it out.
He placed the knife to her neck. He knew, his instincts told him that he was meant to slice her neck, let her bleed to death, although his non-beating heart told him otherwise. His hand began to shake uncontrollably.
He slowly straightened up, and turned to Angel. "You know, what's the rush?" He asked, "we have all night. We can play with her, torture her" he suggested, stalling for time.

Angelus approached him, his expression smug. "Playing, torturing, yes, but you were so...impatient earlier. I figure just kill the girl, get it over with. Isn't that your method,hm?" Angelus' eyes narrowed and his voice got dramatically serious and challenging. "William the bloody?"
Angelus walked up to Willow, took his finger and moved it over the arm of the chair that pinned Willow's impaled hand, taking some of the blood and tasting it. "Mm. Or...I'm starting to think that I'm not talking to the same William." Angelus' eyes radiated with suspicion and he studied Spike for those moments. "Spike, kill her." Angelus said, his voice unmistakingly commanding.

Blinking, Dawn sighed and shook her head "Hello? Me watching you is so not the problem right now...Willow? Danger? Let's go!!" Racing after her sister toward the high school, she furrowed her eyebrows watching Buffy's reaction "Ok...Angelus is dust...but what about Spike? Why is he helping us? I thought he hated us!! He could've totally turned me over to Angel but he didn't! What's going on?"
Racing Buffy to the school, she opened the door and motioned down the hall "This way...she's in one of the classrooms in this hall."

Yelling out as Spike pulled the knife out of her hand, Willow tried to control her emotions but then gasped out as he pressed the knife to her throat "N...no...Spike...you don't want to...Think about what Buffy would do to you if you did..." Watching his hand shake uncontrollably, she looked up into his eyes, pleadingly but then saw that he truly didn't want to. Blinking, she quickly looked at Angelus trying to hide what she knew as Spike pulled the knife away from her throat and spoke of torturing her.
Blinking, Willow narrowed her eyes at Angelus "Are you really that frightened Angel? To make other people do your dirty work? I thought you were "The Big Bad' of vampires...looks like you're not..." Knowing that she was really pushing their buttons, Willow didn't care as she tried to buy herself and Spike some time.
