As they ran through the jungle Noelle tripped. Buffy turned around to help her and Danielle stopped the beach was close, she could see it but she turned back to help them.
“What’s that?” Noelle asked as Buffy helped her off the ground and she squinted at the sky. The others were only feet away from them.
“I don’t know,” Buffy replied.
“There slayers, ghosts of slayer,” Danielle said, a smile spreading across her face, “You freed them when you killed the monster and now they want revenge.”
“On me?” Noelle asked as the ghosts of slayers past swooped down and began to attack the others.
“No, them,” Danielle replied.
************************
“Wow what’s that?” Hurley asked Jack and Charlie. They were all standing on the beach and other survivors began to join them. They all looked up at the sky and watched as the ghosts flew away from the island.
“This place just keeps getting weirder and weirder,” Charlie said, shaking his head.
*********************
“Wow, pay back really is a bitch,” Buffy said as they turned away from the spot where the dead others now resided.
Noelle let out a scream of pain and grabbed her head as a vision began to take her over.
“What’s going on?” Buffy asked, kneeling next to the girl, “Noelle.”
“She’s having a vision,” Danielle explained.
Noelle groaned and got up, “What was that?”
“A vision,” Danielle replied.
“Great am I going to have these all the time?”
“For the rest of your life. You’re a seer.”
“Lucky me.”
“What did you see?” Buffy asked.
“Umm,” Noelle held her head trying to concentrate, “A rescue boat, come on,” she said, running towards the beach.
****************************
“Noelle,” Clair said, running over to her daughter and enveloping her in a hug. Boone ran over as well.
“Hi mom,” Noelle replied with a smile.
Jack walked over to Buffy, “Gonna tell me what happened on there?”
“Someday,” she said with a smile.
“I’ll hold you to that.”
“I know you will,” Buffy said.
“Guys, someone’s here!” Charlie yelled, “A boat.”
Everyone looked out into the ocean and sure enough a ship moved towards them. When it docked everyone moved towards it hesitantly as a man wearing a navy uniform got off.
“Are you folks the survivors of Oceanic flight 815?” he asked.
“Yeah,” Jack asked walking forward, “Who are you?”
“I’m the captain of the ship that was sent to rescue you.”
Everyone began to yell and scream for joy, hugging and being grateful. They were finally rescued. Buffy smiled.
“Looks like we finally get to leave goldilocks,” Sawyer said, walking over to Buffy.
“Looks like,” she replied.
***************************
“Nervous?” Jack asked Buffy from his seat next to her in their plane to Los Angeles.
“The last plane I was on crashed, what do you think?”
Jack shrugged.
Buffy smiled, “You’d think I would be but I’m not, not with everyone else here,” she said, looking around at the other people she had spent so much time on the island with...
“I know what you mean,” he said, “I’m excited to get home and see my wife.”
Buffy smiled and nodded, “I can’t wait to see my mom and my friends, Giles.”
*******************************************
Everyone got off the plane that had brought them to Los Angeles and for the most part they were greeted with warm hugs from family and friends. Buffy smiled and looked around at her fellow survivors.
She watched as Jack ran over to his wife and kissed her passionately.
Shannon and Boone were greeted by an older woman presumably Boone’s mother and Shannon’s step mother. The woman hugged both Boone and Shannon but she showed Shannon little warmth. Boone looked over at Clair, who was standing with Noelle and a friend, and motioned for her to come over. She did and they all left together despite Boone’s mother’s protests. Noelle looked happy Buffy thought.
She also saw Locke and Danielle leaving together talking animatedly.
She watched as Michael hugged his mother and then explained to her that her grandson was dead. She fell to the floor sobbing uncontrollably.
Hurley hugged his mom who began to admonish him that he looked to thin. Buffy laughed at the remark.
She watched as Charlie left with his brother, their arms around one another like the best of friends.
“Buffy!” Xander yelled. She turned and saw him, Willow, Joyce, and Giles coming towards her.
“Buffy, I’m so glad you’re okay,” Joyce said, hugging her daughter tightly.
“I missed you,” Buffy said as she pulled away from her mother and hugged the others, “All of you guys.”
“We missed you too,” Willow said.
Buffy looked at Giles and concerned look in her eyes, “Don’t worry we took care of everything in your absence,” he whispered in her ear.
Buffy smiled at him and then noticed Sawyer all alone at a magazine rack buying something, “I’ll be right back,” she told her friends as she made her way over to him.
“Hey,” she said.
He looked at her, “Shouldn’t you be with your friends, making some more Kodak moments,” he said, taking a cigarette out of the pack he just bought and lighting it.
“You’re not supposed to smoke her,” Buffy said.
He laughed as he sat and she followed suit, sitting down next to him on the bench. The California sun shined down on their faces through the window, “What are they going to do to me?”
“Where’s your family?”
He shrugged, “Not here….Don‘t feel sorry for me. I don’t need your pity.”
“I just came to say goodbye.”
“Bye.”
She frowned and he looked at her. He sighed and threw his cigarette on the ground crushing it with the heel of his boot.
“Alright,” he replied getting up and hugging her goodbye, “I’ll see you around slayer,” he said before picking up him duffle bag and moving towards the door.
“If you’re ever in Sunnydale,” Buffy yelled to him.
“I’ll give you a call,” he said, turning around and looking at her with a smile. He turned around again, “See you around goldilocks.”
“Who was that?” Willow asked, walking over and watching Sawyer’s retreating form with her friend.
“Just a friend.”
