Chapter 7

A/N First off, apologizes for not doing more on this story. I got caught up in a bunch of different things and I lost track of this tale. So, I will try and get back on it, and get it to the point where things are going to get interesting! With that, we now return you to your fanfiction story.

Soon, Buffy and the gang got a lead on Glory and went after her. It was a hard fought battle with Spike and Buffy fighting like a team, taking out minions like crazy. Tara, was using her magic to slow down and stop some of these minions as well. Xander was fighting like a cold machine, taking down a minion, then going after the next one, the only thing on his mind being finding out who killed Anya.

Soon, Buffy spotted the tower where Glory had Dawn at. "Take care of the followers! I'm going after Dawn" she told the Scoobies. Buffy charged, Troll hammer in hand as she crushed those that would stop her reaching Glory.

Watching this in hiding near the tower was Willow. She had a cold smile on her face, as she saw Buffy heading toward the tower. "Yes, the third element. Soon, soon, we will have all we need to do the spell" she told Stormbringer, which throbbed in her hand, letting her know its approval.

"What are you doing here Slayer? Trying to save your sister? Forget it! You can't beat me!" Glory proclaimed, as she counted down the time till she could open the portal to her home dimension. And if other dimensions fell in doing that, then so be it.

"You are not going to win Glory. I WILL stop you" Buffy told the Hell goddess, as she charged the demented being. The two of them went at it no holds barred. While this was going on, neither one of them noticed Willow closing in on the battle site.

But Dawn did see Willow coming into the tower. "Willow! What are you doing here? You trying to help out as well?" the tall brunette asked the red head.

"In my own way" Willow told her, as she took from one pocket a small paper packet that she blew at Dawn. The powder hit Buffy's sister and knocked her out. Willow did a quick spell and used her magic to bind Dawn to an area of the tower. "One down, two to go" she muttered, with Stormbringer warbling in her palm, letting her know its approval.

Willow looked on as both Buffy and Glory went at it, waiting for her chance to strike. Finally it came, as both Buffy and Glory struck at the same time, the blow being powerful enough to knock both of them out! Once both were out, Willow again used her magic to bind both Glory and Buffy next to Dawn.

As Buffy, Glory and Dawn came around and found themselves bound to the tower, they attempted to break loose but with no success. "Try and break loose as much as you can. You won't break those bonds" they heard Willow tell them. But this was NOT the Willow that Buffy and Dawn were used to seeing!

Willow had Stormbringer on her hip, and was wearing black armor that had a look of a Dragon to it. In her hands was a small bowlplatter with a knife lying in it. "All the elements are now in place. Now, the ritual can commence" she stated, a odd look in her eyes and a weird tone in her voice.

"Come on Willow, you don't need to do this. You can fight it" Buffy told her, as she tried to snap her red headed friend out of the state that she was in.

"Willow, I don't know what you are planning, but what little I know of rituals, you need a lot of power to carry it out. So, just let us go and all will be fine" Dawn said, trying to get through to Willow.

"SILENCE!" Willow roared, her eyes glowing with power. "You three are the components, the elements needed for this ritual, which will bring Lord Arioch into this world. And he will bring forth badly needed chaos to this world, a world that SCREAMS for it!"

When Willow told the trio who she was going to summon, it caused the arrogant Hell Goddess to go pale. "No, No, you wouldn't dare" she said, looking at Willow with fear. The idea of a Lord of Chaos coming to this dimension filled her with fear and dread.

"A Lord of Chaos? What does that mean?" Dawn asked, as Willow approached her. The look in Willow's eyes and the power that she had felt when Willow had roared at them had caused Dawn to be scared. Even more scared of the idea of being used as a sacrifice to open the doorway to the dimensions.

Buffy knew a little of who Willow was talking about. She remembered what Anya had said when Elric had shown up. And if what was about to happen was related to that, then they were in DEEP trouble!

But, as the trio were going over what they had heard, Willow came forth, with the bowl and the knife. She lifted up the arms one by one of Buffy, Glory and Dawn, letting small amounts of blood seep into the bowl, causing smoke to come forth from the bowl.

"The elements are now offered. Let the doorway be opened. By the blood of a Slayer, the blood of a Hell Goddess, and the power of The Key, I make this offering. Let the Doorway between dimensions be opened! Come forth Lord Arioch, Duke of Chaos!" Willow called out, using High Melnibonian for the spell. As the spell was completed, a Doorway opened, with signs of Chaos in the sky behind it. A man carrying a black colored blade, with twelve arrows around the hilt stepped out.

"You have done well Willow Rosenberg. Very well indeed. I, Duke Arioch, Lord of Chaos, now claim this dimension as an extension of Chaos" the dark eyed being proclaimed, as Willow got down to one knee, bowing in respect to this powerful person.
