Summary: Buffy/Oz;Xander/Scott;Giles/Kenny;Willow/Percy
Notes: Reading the email saying that it would be great if there was an Oz look-a-like for all
got me thinking. Also, a challange to kill off Willow in an inventive way and include
slash by Wendy led to this.I'm sure this isn't what she expected by slash but this is
the best I can do. Oh, I hope the author of the Xander/Scott Evil fics doesn't mind,
but I used the couple. Respect for a great series is my only intenion. Finally,don't
flame me for killing Willow, it was just a challenge folks.
Last Note: (I swear!) This is kinda bad fic but it amuses me.Oh, Kenny is *the* Kenny
from "Can't Hardly Wait".

"Um.Buffy. Who is that dancing with Giles?"
"Huh? Where?"
Pointing to the dance floor,Xander scooted closer to Scott.Just in case.
Jumping out of her seat,Buffy blinked, trying to make sure she was seeing correctly. "Oh my god!
It's Oz,or Scott. But, Scott is here and Oz is over there on stage and I *really* can't see
Oz wearing those goggles."
The gang stared in shock as Giles gyrated against the Oz look-a-like.
"What is with that backpack he's wearing? Look! They're wearing matching earrings too. Buffy, go
over there and find out what's going on. We live on the hellmouth, and this is definitely
weird."
Rolling her eyes at Xander, Buffy turned to Willow. "Hey, you ok? You're looking a little green."
Tearing her eyes away from Giles and his partner, Willow looked at Buffy. "I can't deal with
this any more.First Scott, then this guy. One Oz is cool, two is stretching it ,but three?
I gotta go."
Tired of Willow's selfish attitude,Buffy snapped. "You can't deal? What about Oz?Have you ever
that about him?" Putting her hand up to silence Willow, Buffy continued her tirade. "No, somehow
I doubt it.You want to dis me? Fine, so be it. Everyone knows I'm used to it.But Oz? You should
consider yourself lucky to have him. But you don't.You take him for granted and you always have.
If I was lucky enough to have Oz, I would show it Willow."
Standing up, face red, Willow sneered at her. "You don't though, do you Buffy? He's too smart
to fall for someone like you. You may be able to kick ass Buffy, but when it comes to love,
you're weak and helpless."
Flinching, Buffy took a step back. "Hit low when cornered, don't you Willow? I know about
the calls from Percy. Care to explain that?"
"Step off Buffy. I don't have to explain a thing to you. I'm not your side kick."
Shaking her head, Buffy gave a short laugh ."Yeah, I know.Been there, heard that one before.You
owe Oz one Willow."
"No, she doesn't."
The two turned to Oz. So caught up in their argument, they didn't notice he had walked up.
Deciding they were in the way, Xander and Scott got up and went to the dance floor.Watching them
walk off, Oz turned and smiled at Buffy.
"Thanks Buffy, but Willow and I broke up last week. We didn't say anything because Willow
thought we should wait until things settled down after Buffy's-uh- problem.It's all cool."
"Oh, good." Looking at Willow, Buffy waited for the shame to take over. When it didn't,she
smiled. "I'd say I'm sorry but, for once, I'm not.I meant every word I said. I *am* sorry
that our friendship has gone downhill so far.There was once a time that we never would say
such things."
Feeling a twinge of guilt, Willow pushed it aside. "Times change Buff.So do people.I'm not
that shy,awkward,starry eyed geek any more.I'm sorry Buffy, but I have to go. Percy is
waiting for me."
Turning,Willow left the Bronze, never hearing Buffy's softly spoken words.
"I never thought those things Will. I loved you for you."
Deflated,Buffy sat down with a oomph. Taking a seat next to her,Oz took her hand in his.
"You ok Buffy?"
Blinking back tears,she tried to smile, but it came off as a grimace. "Yeah, or at least I will
be.What did I do wrong Oz?"
"Nothing, I'm sorry to say but I seen it coming.Give me a smile and I'll get you a cookie."
Buffy couldn't help laughing at that and looked at Oz,giving him a smile. "Wanna dance?"
Pulling her to her feet, Oz led her to the dance floor. Holding her close,Oz sighed in total
bliss.
As the music sped up, they reluctently stepped back and began dancing to the beat. Mid step,
they bumped into another couple. Turning to apologize, the couple turned out to be Giles
and his partner.
Smiling and giving his date one last pelvic grind, Giles gave introductions.
"Hey Buffy,Oz, I would like for you to meet Kenny. Kenny this is Buffy and Oz."
"Oh my god, Special K does not believe what he sees. You could be like my twin or sumthin.
Giles doll, why didn't you tell me about him?"
Before anyone could say another word, a loud bang and screaming from outside had them running
to see what was wrong.
There, outside the Bronze, lay Willow dead apperently from her head exploding due to her
ego getting out of control. On the hellmouth it pays to heed every warning, even the one
that says, "Don't let your head get to full of yourself or it may explode."
