thank you all sooo very very much! You're so niceee

here's the new part:

Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Return

Giles immediately joined the four vampires as they made their way out of the school.

"What happened to her?" the Watcher wondered, looking at the injured and still unconscious vampiress Spike carefully held in his arms.

"She'll be fine. My pet is strong and with some special help she'll heal faster," her Sire explained, looking at Giles allusively.

"I understand. Alright, I'll help you with that. Anyway, where are the other two of you?" the man asked, a bad feeling that he wasn't going to like the answer suddenly creeping into him.

"They won't be coming with us," Spike answered, serious and obviously grieving, and Giles understood.

"Yeah, they're hopeless, but everyone else has a chance of salvation, so let's not waste our time here, let's get on the bus!" Angelus commented as he observed them intently. "It seems that you have other important business in your mind, so I'll drive!"

Angelus acted coldly and selfishly, because he didn't want the others to realize how sorry he was for the unlucky twist of fate that the two vampires from the other dimension had met.

After all, he had been kinda fond of them by then.

Drusilla didn't speak, but she seemed to know something than the others didn't.

The brunette vampire set the vehicle in motion once they all were inside, going as fast as he could, because it turned into a run against time for real when the street began literally disappearing as they left it behind, swallowed in a deadly vortex along with the rest of Sunnydale.

He managed to cross the town's limit border, and through the rear-view mirror he saw that the vortex stopped right on the edge of the border, exhaling a relieved sigh that he'd gotten all of them out safe and sound before it had been too late.

Taking advantage of the grey and cloudy sky, they all got off the bus, even Buffy, who was still being carried by Spike.

Giles had doctored her wounds with a first aid kit he'd conveniently brought, and afterwards had also given her a little of his blood, after Spike had guaranteed that he wouldn't let her drain him, of course, and that had come a long way in restoring her health. And her Sire's

precious blood had done the rest.

The vampiress wasn't strong enough to stand up yet, but at least she was conscious again.

Everyone stared at the crater that held what had once been Sunnydale in front of them.

"Whoever did this?" Giles wondered, taking off his glasses to polish them.

"GB," Buffy whispered hoarsely.

Spike's attention fell on the Welcome to Sunnydale sign that had been smashed onto the ground. "And LES, no doubt about that," he smirked and then he burst out laughing. "I can't believe it, there's no more bloody Sunnyhell!" he exulted.

With the little energy she still had, Buffy slapped him, although she didn't manage to do it as hard as she'd meant to.

"You, stupid! Show some respect for them, at least. They sacrificed themselves to save our world!" she said with tearful eyes.

"No, no, he's right; we all should be laughing out loud!" Drusilla exclaimed.

"Did you just told me that I'm right? Ok, what? Did I end up in another dimension, too?" Spike said, sarcastically, as always.

"What do you mean, Dru?" Buffy wondered.

"They're not here anymore, that's true, but it doesn't mean that they are dead. They just went back home, but maybe one day we'll see them again. That's why we can laugh!" she explained.

"Well, I wanna trust you for once!" Spike said.

"If Dru says so, I believe it, too!" Buffy smiled relieved.

"Good Boy. Miss Edith will give you a double slice of cake at her next tea party. And she wants you to meet all her friends, too!" the vampiress exclaimed, clapping her hands.

Giles looked at them in confusion.

"Well, I don't know if yours is an award or a punishment. How am I supposed to stand a bloody tea party with all your bloody dolls? Ok, I'm an Englishman and a cup of tea is always precious, but there are limits to everything!" Spike said, rolling his eyes.

Since no one could see him, Angelus also smiled relieved by the wonderful news.

"I know that my baby can't be wrong," he said, cuddling with his Childe. "I just wonder how you manage to do that every single time."

"Mon amour, je sois unique!" she smiled.

Angelus narrowed his eyes. "Are you still in rambling mood'" he glanced at her in disbelief.

She shook her head negatively.

"No, I just took some French lessons for real, a couple of years ago, but I wanted it to be a secret," she explained. "Anyway, after two weeks I killed my teacher. He kept correcting me and that made Princess so nervous," she added.

Angelus burst out laughing, holding her tight as he beamed with pride. "Oh, please, my love, promise me that you'll never change..." he murmured, between kisses.

"It's not that I want to break this romantic scene, but what are we gonna do now?" Spike asked interrupted them, while Buffy nodded.

"It's simple. This time we'll move to my beloved Ireland and I don't wanna hear any complains. I know that you would prefer Paris to improve your French, honey, but maybe next time. Now it's Daddy's turn to be happy!" he turned to Drusilla.

"Since the world is full of Slayers now, every place sounds good to me, we won't miss on the fun!" Spike shrugged. "Just one condition: we must return to London first, just to pick up the DeSoto. You know that I can't un-live without my baby, and boy! Now I'm so happy I didn't bring my beloved car here!" he added.

Buffy confined herself to nod and then she turned to Giles.

"What about you, Giles? What are you gonna do?" she asked him.

"Well, I'll return to my London for a while to see my dear wife again. And then it will be trouble for me when I tell her that I want to move to Cleveland, because I found out that there's another Hellmouth there, less dangerous, but I want to check it out anyway. I already forced Harm to leave Sunnydale and start a new life in London. Maybe this time she won't want to start any new life, but end mine!" Giles explained, concerned, making the four vampires laugh.

(End I)

So, are you a little more relieved now that you find out that our dear blondies didn't die?

And in part II you'll see them again, it's a promise.

I hope you'll still llike it..
