great chapter

I'm just drooling over this. Come on Buffy! Rise to the challenge. She had to make one sacrifice for the world, and yet she's still after you. I smell a trick! Boy do I hope the right choice is to totally blow Willow out of the water. I can't wait for an update.

Excellent chapter! Thanks for sorting out some of my questions. It looks like we are getting closer to the final showdown - which should be great. THanks!

very good read, thank you. all the players know what is happening except buffy. either she figures it out or spike and/or dawn have to reach her.

oh no...poor buffy!! she has to find out somehow that it's a trick!! loved spike kicking luke's butt...that bit was fun...looking forward to your next update :)

Come on, Buffy. Hold your wits about you. Realize this isn't real.

Dawn and Carlo's scene was very tender. She found herself a good one, and he'll leave her with good memories.

Poor Spike...separated from the main action again. Very happy to see him rip Luke apart.
