Part One
Penn dropped the body to the ground. The cross carved into her cheek. His and Angelus' symbol. They had been doing it for over a century. Well, rather, he was. He had lost track of Angelus', his sire, little under a century ago. He'd heard that he was in America. Maybe they'd run into each other. Oh, the havoc they could wreak, once reunited. Maybe if he still hunted with Drucilla and William, no, he was going by Spike now wasn't he. Spike - it suited him.
Buffy staggered into Giles' apartment. She had just finished patrol, she had run into a demon of some kind, she just couldn't remember anything about the encounter, well only that she hurt. There must have been a fight but she couldn't quite recall.
"Giles" she called
"Yes. We're in the living room." He replied
She walked into the living room to find, Giles, Willow, Spike, Xander and Anya.
"Hey guys."
"Buffy. What happened?" Xander cried.
"I don't know. I was on patrol. I met this demon, and I don't remember what happened after that, until I saw the demon running away and I felt and looked like this."
"Giles, could the demon have performed a spell to make her forget?" Willow asked.
"There are demons that have the power to bury events deep in the subconscious. I can't remember any off hand." Anya offered.
"It would help if I had a description" Giles explained to Buffy. "Do you remember what it looked like?"
"NO."
"Can we perform an uncovering spell, Giles" Willow asked
"A what?" Xander and Buffy asked
"An Uncovering spell. It brings up any memories buried in the subconscious." Willow explained
"Let's do it" Buffy agreed.
"Well I-I suppose. We will of course need supplies."
"I'll find the spell. I know what book it's in." Willow flips through the pages of a book. "Here it is. Hand me a piece of paper." She scribbles a few items on the paper. "This is what I need. Xand. Can you go get these things for me? Tell them I'll pay for it next time I go over."
"Sure" he grabs the list and he and Anya leave
"Ok, so here's how its gonna work. You'll have to sit down, or lay down. Concentrate on the sound of my voice. You'll go into a trance. When you wake up, you'll begin to slowly remember everything that your subconscious made you forget. Alright?"
"Yeah Fine."
Xander returned after a few minutes with all the necessary supplies. Willow performed the spell.
Buffy lay unconscious on Giles' couch. She stirred occasionally. After about a half of a hour, she began to wake.
"Sleeping Beauty awakens." Spike commented although no one listened.
"Are you Ok Buffy?" Willow asked
"Yeah I guess so" She replied before the rush of memories hit her. Everything came back to her in a rush of images. "Oh. My god"
"What is it Buffy what do you remember?" Asked Giles.
"I've gotta go" She said before jumping up and rushing towards the door.
"Where are you going?" Xander called out behind her.
As the door swung open they heard her yell. "L.A."
