Part 8: The Final Chapter
It was dark, Willow realised. That's why Angel had managed to come. Xander was holding Buffy's body very close to his own. He glared at Angel. "She's not a vampire anymore." Angel smiled. "I know. I felt her demon leave her body." His smile turned pleasant. "She's also very dead. Too bad. I was beginning to like the new Buffy."
Giles acted fast. Using a chair and extraordinary strength, he knocked Angel behind the head. Angel howled. He stumped around dazedly. Oz and Cordy took the que. They bashed him with anything they could find. They attacked him from all sides. Never letting down their guard. They formed a small circle around him.
Giles raised the Orb. It seemed to him that it was shining with a powerful blue light. And in that blue light, he saw Jenny Calendar. He saw what might have been. He saw the children he would never father. The wife and home and life he would never have and the agony almost sent him to his knees. Angel's soul was in the orb. He could see it. And so was Buffy's. They were holding hands and kissing as if they would never let go.
They were together. They were happy. It was all that mattered. With a savage cry, he flung the orb at the wall. It shattered to a thousand pieces. He took the yellow disk and stamped on it, crushing it under his foot. He fell on Angelus with a stake and in the moments before he staked him in the heart. He saw Angel, looking out at him with so much gratitude in his eyes that he knew he'd made the correct decision. He pushed the stake into the vampire's heart. Angelus turned to gray ash within a moment.
All was still. Then slowly, the Slayerettes surrounded Giles. They too had seen and they understood. They all stood, hugging each other tight.

"Willow, you wanna come to the Bronze with me tonight?", Xander looked down at his shoes. "What? You mean, like a date?" For a moment, Xander reflected on this then a huge grin broke out on his face. "Yeah, like on a date." Willow hugged him. He looked so cute and irrestible. "I love you, Xander", she whispered. Xander hugged her back. "I love you more than you'll ever know."
And in the blue skies above, Angel and Buffy looked down at their friends. At Cordelia and Oz kissing and Willow and Xander locked in an intimate embrace. Smiling, they reached out for each other's hands, sure that someday, they would all meet again.
The End. Finisso. No More.
So what do you think??!! I'm a sucker for a happy ending!! Any comments are welcome.
