The Silver Kiss: Willow
by Angelzbabygrl
Willow
Willow sat in front of the mirror, watching Angel’s pain, and sorrow. And even though she had eaten, hunger crept through her. She felt his agony, his hunger. Even his lust for Buffy.
She felt rumbles erupt from her stomach and rolled her neck annoyed. She knew that every time the story stopped, it meant that a messenger was coming. She stood up and smoothed out her clothes.
The door creaked open and a blond woman walked in, wearing a school girl outfit. Darla. She was carrying a platter of food for Willow and she set it on the table.
“How’s the story going to end?” Willow asked as she walked over. She sat down at the table and began to eat.
“Can’t tell.” Darla answered with her mocking smile.
“Not just the slightest hint?” Willow asked, stuffing her face. Anything to quiet the hunger, she thought.
“I can show you your job though.” Darla told her. Willow raised an eyebrow at that and continued eating. Darla smiled wickedly and snapped her fingers.
Suddenly the food was gone and Willow was standing next to Darla in a library.
“What’s my job?” Willow asked her.
“To find the book.” Darla answered. The library stretched back too far for Willow to see the end. There were only four stacks, but the stacks went on forever.
“What book?” Willow asked, confused.
“The one that Buffy is in, silly.” Darla answered.
“Huh?” Willow asked.
“Buffy obviously came from a real book, you didn’t really think that we’d go through all the trouble of making up our OWN stories did you?” Darla asked. Willow felt stupid.
“Ok? Well what’s the book called?” she asked.
“Can’t tell.” Darla told her.
“Then how am I supposed to find it?” Willow asked.
“Start looking.”
“What happens if I don’t find it?”
Darla snapped her fingers and they were suddenly in a room identical to Willow’s, except different colors.
There was a witch with long brown hair weeping in front of her mirror.
“If you don’t find it before the story ends, you will be doomed to stay here forever, and your friends will keep living the story, over and over.” Darla told her.
“But all that pain would drive a human—“
“Insane?” Darla interrupted.
“Yeah.”
“Ok, well, good luck.” Darla said, snapped her fingers again, and disappeared, leaving Willow in the library.
Willow started searching, and wondered how she was supposed to know what was happening if she had no mirror.
Then she remembered the ring. She looked into it and saw Zoë…
