Spike groaned as he heard the door open and HE returned. Blighter called himself Death. At least that’s what Spike had heard before he was taken. But what did he care? He had killed two slayers, saved thousands, and even helped take down the Senior Partners’ army. He was William the Bloody and he would not be broken by a stinking human.
“Tell me what I want to know.” Death said as he picked up a bottle of holy water.
“I don’t effing know what you want to know. So piss off.” Spike snarled.
“Stop lying and I’ll let you go.” Death gave his stupid “practiced in the mirror til it was perfect” smile.
Spike snorted, “Yeah let me go straight into the sun. I’m not lying to you. In fact I haven’t told you a single lie. You want to know the truth of the matter? Here it is. I’ll spell it out for you. They are coming for me. And nothing will stop them not even my death. And when they find you, you’ll wish you’d never heard of me. I just hope I’m still alive so I can kick your ass myself before lighting it on fire.”

The core Scoobies were worried about Andrew. He was acting noticeably different ever since the mail had come in on Friday. He hadn’t quoted a single geek thing since he had opened that letter. Dawn tried to get him to tell her what it said but he refused. They made Willow make sure he wasn’t possessed. Even that didn’t get the usual speech from him about not being evil. In the end it was Faith who actually managed to get him to tell them the truth.
Andrew’s cousin had died. But Andrew wouldn’t tell her how his cousin had died. Just that his cousin died a hero and he didn’t know anything else.
But that was a lie. Andrew knew how his cousin died. He had died in the heat of the final battle against Voldemort. He didn’t know who had delivered the final blow to his younger cousin. But that didn’t matter, because his cousin was gone and nothing would bring him back.
Andrew tried to honor his cousin the best way he knew how. He gathered every picture his cousin had ever sent him and made a humongous collage. In the exact middle was his cousin, Colin Creevey.
