To Los Angeles to cure Spike and thus help Buffy and Dawn.
I had made a breakthrough with Spike's trigger. It had all come from something that Willow had stated about mind manipulation, and it occurred to me that there wasn't necessarily a physical catalyst inside of Spike's brain, like there was with the chip in his head placed there by the Government which kept Spike from harming anything or one that

I had no idea. I really wasn't Jonesing for a return to dark Willow. I liked my Willow just the way that she was now.
"Yeah, I'm ready. As long as your both with me."
I still didn't know, but scrunched up in the backseat, I managed to keep my thoughts in check and from escaping my vocal chords, which had to be a record for me.
When I was ready to give my opinion, it was going to be an obvious notion, as Giles would say, and I believed that I was now ready to give that opinion.
"Willow, none of us want you to lose control. But, if Buffy and Dawn need you to get medieval on some vampires, or potentially death could be at all of our doors, then it is what has to be done..."
I was going to go on to more. I was going to go to the Tara place but decided against it. I didn't want her thinking of that minutes before turning dark. That would be worse. This was probably already bad.
Twice in a minute I didn't say what was on my mind. I would have been proud of myself if this entire situation didn't totally suck.

I nodded at her reassuringly. I had been there after her many visits to the coven in Devon. I was quite sure that she had managed the power that was within her, which is precisely why I had told her that she musn't shy completely away from her powers.
Still, the rememberance of her raising Bufy from the dead, and then her threat to me coming to pass when I had called her an amateur, invariably sprang to mind. It became so much worse after that and facilitating a return of her dark side was unquestionably frightful.
"Willow, none of us want you to lose control. But, if Buffy and Dawn need you to get medieval on some vampires, or potentially death could be at all of our doors, then it is what has to be done..."I believe in you, Willow. Xander, amazingly, is correct in this instance. It might not come to that, but you are our strongest weapon if we happen to be accosted before we get to Buffy, Dawn and Spike. You musn't hesitate, and you musn't show mercy to vampires attempting to kill ( ... )

I believed that to be true and it provided a lot of comfort, for in these environs, we would ned the Willow that we all knew existed...the Willow that was one of the strongest beings in the world.
I couldn't believe the chaos that the city had descended into. Los Angeles was traditionally a decadent place, anyway, and right now, it was the worst of all places. Demons filled the streets.
"Giles, you think that you can flip the convertible top up, now. I mean, it's not exactly like we're feeling the hot sun against us right now, unfortunately, and I'm not exactly Jonesing for a vampire to dive on me while I sit scrunched in your backseat."I had the exact thought, as I depressed the button and turned to avoid hitting a demon, receiving a look from Willow in the process ( ... )
