Part 2

Anya heard a low rumble.

“This is it.” She whispered to the man beside her.

He held her close to him.  “It’s alright Anya.”

Anya turned to him, her eyes shining with love.  “If I have to die I’m glad I got to spend my last moments with you.” She told him softly.

He kissed her, a final kiss.

Then the low rumble became defining and they both knew it was over.  This was it.

The end.

***

Drusilla clung to Spike.  “This is it.” She said softly, wondering what would happen next.

Spike kissed his beloved Drusilla.  “I know Ducks, but at least we're together.”

She nodded and kissed him.

A deafening noise filled the room and they knew it was over.

***

Oz put his hand on Willow’s stomach, marvelling in the fact that his child was in there. * * But filled with sadness at the fact that he would never see it, it would never be born.

“I love you.” He told her. * * “And even though it hasn’t been born, I love our baby.”

“So do I.” Willow whispered, her eyes full of tears.

At that moment they heard a deafening noise and clasped hands at what they knew to be the very end.

It was over.

***

Cordelia lay in Doyle’s arms as she heard the low rumblings get louder.

“Goodbye.” She whispered to the man who she loved with all her heart, and who by his customs was her husband.

“Goodbye.” he whispered back as the noise became deafening.

They both knew at that moment that it was over.

***

“I love you, you were perfect.” Angel told Buffy, as he gently played with a piece of her hair. “

I love you too.” She told him, kissing him softly.

She knew he had reassured her because she had some doubts.  Her two experiences with sex hadn’t turned out well, but this had been truly amazing.  Being with Angel, letting herself go.  Knowing only what it was to be in his arms.

As the deafening noise filled every corner of the room.  They gazed at each other and knew that this was the end.

***

Joyce closed her eyes as the end came.

She was with Giles and that was all that mattered.  She loved him so much and was glad that her last moments were with him.

"I love you.” He whispered.

She never got to reply because at that moment there was a deafening rumble.  It was over.

They had lost.  They had all lost.  After all their fighting there was nothing the could do.

THE END
