FANFICTION BANNERS & RESOURCES

Dear Emma,
   For a thousand years I wielded the powers of the wish. I brought ruin to the heads of unfaithful men. I brought forth destruction and chaos for the pleasure of the lower beings. I was feared and worshiped across the mortal globe and now I'm stuck at Sunnydale High! Mortal. Child. And I'm flunking math.”
-Anya

After the fall of Sunnydale, Buffy's tearful confession that she cared for Spike long before he was chipped shocks no one. Least of all, Xander, who is still reeling from loosing Anya. But then he receives a strange visit from D'Hoffryn, who tells him Anya's soul is stuck in limbo then gifts him a package that turns out to be her diary. Reading her innermost thoughts, the observations she made and how lonely she truly was leaves Xander inconsolable but determined to seek out the truth. Telling no one, he heads to LA in search of Wesley, only to find Spike instead, who weirdly becomes his closest confidant. Fearing rejection, Spike consistently refuses to contact Buffy, but vows to help him on his quest.

Unknown to both, D'Hoffryn has plans of his own and the one night their drunken regrets turn into a wish, Xander and Spike find themselves back in Sunnyhell the week Buffy starts college. Xander is happy to reconcile with Anya. if only he can convince Spike to stop avoiding Buffy long enough to unite them all against the Initiative setting up on campus.

Must haves:

• Spike and Xander becoming best buds.
• Both sent back in time and merging into their past selves with all future memories intact.
• Snippets of Xander reading Anya's diary, which he was able to keep when sent back to Sunnydale.
• Spike doesn't lose his soul.
• D'Hoffryn might be evil and manipulative, but he simply wants his Anyanka alive and happy again because he loves her like a daughter.
• A happy Spuffy ending.

Time moves differently in paradise, so after a decade of dimension hopping, (working undercover for the PTB) and a brief hiatus, Buffy is armed with the future, including Spike's dusting at the end of Angel. Needless to say, she is beyond pissed, but agrees to return willingly only if Spike consents to being her champion.

Meanwhile, Spike overhears the Scoobies planning to resurrect her. Knowing they won't listen to him, he seeks out the Oracles for proof that she is in fact, in heaven. Subsequently, the Oracles give him Buffy's ultimatum, which we all know he jumps on. Gifting him with a few extra perks as well. (Authors choice, maybe the Gem of Amara?) Being opposed to the Slayer finding herself in a coffin, Spike proceeds to dig up and protect her body until Willow and gang bring her back. Waking with the knowledge of what's to come, a sister to care for, and a vampire to love, Buffy doesn't have the time nor patience to coddle the Scoobies anymore.

After killing the Slayer, Nikki Wood in New York, Spike suddenly feels Drusilla dust. Set on avenging his sire by any means necessary, he soon befriends Anyanka, a vengeance demon who helps him discover the truth behind Dru's death. (She dusted herself, allowing her soul to pass and complete the destiny Angelus stole from her. ) Years later, Spike gets the chance to reunite with the love of his unlife when Anyanka pops in to tell him Dru's soul was reincarnated, into Buffy Summers. Bloody hell! He might be love's bitch, but how does a vampire woo a Slayer?

Inspired by the song "Karma Chameleon" (hence the title) by Culture Club so kudos to anyone who can fit any of the lyrics and/or Boy George into the story.

Befriending the local demon population after learning that humanity can be just as vile as some of the monsters she has slayed, Buffy rebels against the council. Human or demon, if you kill in her city, she's coming for you.

Spike rolls into Sunnydale looking to bag his third Slayer. Instead he falls for a bat swinging, Ramones singing hellcat.
