Buffy has discovered that The Hellgod Glorificus captured and tortured Spike in an attempt to make him tell her where the key was. This is the “fang fic” that tried to barge its way into “A New Day”. I've reworked all chaps.

Sequel to “To Wed a Vampire”. Spike and Buffy have wed vampire style, quadrupled their powers, and have new hope in fighting the First. "A New Day" follows directly after the events in "To Wed...". In order to understand what is going on, please read “To Wed…” first. It can be found here. This fic is an alternate end of Season 7, with spoilers thru the series' end twisted and shuffled to suit me. Rated mild R for vague sexual situations and violence.

Setting: Season 7 Post Dirty Girls. Spike suggests a way to improve the odds in the upcoming battle. Revamped again 3/5/08, it is now triple the length of the original version. I'd appreciate any comments.
