“TAKE ME TO HIM.” Taluk protested.
“Much obliged to.” Faith said in a mischievous manner.

Meanwhile, back with the scooby gang…
“Oz, catch!” Xander said, as he threw a bottle of juice for him to put on the table.
“Huh?” Oz said while turning around. But it was too late, the bottle hit the floor, and splattered on Oz’ white pants.
“CRAP! Sorry!” Xander said, regretting his girly throw.
“Awww, damnit! Hold on, I’ll help clean this up after I change, first pee, now juice.” Oz said.
“D’you still have those navy jeans?” Willow asked.
“Yeah, I’ll go change now…again.” Oz went to the bathroom to change his pants.
As he left, Cordelia walked in.
“Uhhh Cordy?” Xander said. “Why are you still at school? We’re expecting some demon company.”
“Not that I expected you weren’t, considering you all are freaks and such, I need to get a book from Giles, he said he left it on his...there…” Cordelia picked up a book from a basket. “And by the way Buffy, why’d you beat up Mr. Hurst?”
“I didn’t…”
The priest interrupted. “Did you use physical force against a man?” The priest stood up.
“YEAH! She completely dismantled his nose!” Cordy chimed in, as she exited the Library.
“YOU WHAT? Violence isn’t the path God wants us to take!” Yelled the Priest.
“Whoa there Ned Flanders, I didn’t hurt him on purpose! And what do you mean ‘violence isn’t’ blah, blah, blah? You were totally Charles Manson on me today!” Buffy said, almost ready to pounce on him.
“That’s because I was punishing you for your sins you little wretch. God has given me the power to judge over you and….”
“Excuse me!?” Buffy protested. “You’re lucky you’re a priest, because your face would be inside out by now!”
* * *
Meanwhile Oz just finished changing his pants when he heard somebody cursing to himself outside the bathroom doors.
Oz thought to himself
Oz waited for everything to be silent outside before he’d try to make a run for it. Silence. Oz slowly creeped out the doors, but it was too late…
“HEY YOU!!” yelled a voice down the hall.
Oz didn’t even look behind to see who it was, he instinctively ran the opposite direction, and he heard the stranger behind him follow with speed.
Oz screamed for help, but he knew that the scooby gang couldn’t hear him from that far away, so he turned into the music room to try and duke him out, but Oz ran behind somebody’s cello case.
“Okay, I know you’re in here! Don’t even bother trying to hide you piece of crap!” said the voice of the man as he entered the music room.
Oz was contemplating whether to try and knock him down and make a run for it, or wait until he’s at the other side of the room to make a dash for the door.
But it was too late, as Oz shifted positions, he knocked over the music stand and a whole bunch of papers came flying down in a flock. The man turned to see who was making all the noise, and reflexively jumped on Oz.
“NO! HELP!!” Oz screamed, trying to break free of the man’s awesome grip.
“Now I gotcha you little thief!” Cried the man in excitement.
“You’ll never---thief!?” Cried Oz. “What are you talking about??”
“Those are my pants you shit!” Exclaimed the man. “I was looking all over for them! You stole ‘em!”
Oz was relieved. “So you’re not a demon??” Oz asked stupidly “What?? Hell no!” And immediately the man ripped off Oz’ pants and jetted out the door mumbling to himself
Oz was fantastically relieved! He got up to go back to the others but then he remembered he was half nude.

“Buffy, don’t say that!” Willow said, trying to calm her down.
“Willow, you remember what a prick he was last night!” Buffy said, hoping to get Willow on her side.
“God has given me the power to torture you, God has given me the power to kill you, God has given me the power to end you!” said the priest, until his eyes started glowing red.
“Willow, get back.” Buffy said, as she gently pushed Willow aside.
As Buffy was about to knock this guy three ways from Sunday, she heard a little scuffle outside the doors, as Faith threw Taluk inside the Library. Faith came running in after him saying “BUFFY NOW!”
But she stopped in her tracks seeing the priest eyes glowing bright red. Taluk got up and exclaimed after seeing the priest “Takul! DEAR BROTHER!”
Then Takul’s eyes went back to normal as he shoved Buffy aside. “Now we can finish this once and for all!”
Just then a bright white light illuminated Takul as he began reciting an incantation in an unknown language, erecting a force-field around the two. Then the English came out.
Takul chanted, “By the Power of God and heaven I binde you hell creature…”
Almost at the exact same time, Taluk started chanting “By the power of Satan and Hell I binde you pure one…”
“Giles, what’s going on!?” Willow yelled, trying to shout over the noise of the wind and energy surrounding the two.
“I think they’re fighting!!” Giles screamed.
Buffy grabbed an axe from behind the shelf and charged the demons.
“BUFFY WAIT!” Yelled Giles, but Buffy couldn’t hear him over the noise, and as soon as she made contact with the force-field, she was propelled high into the air, and thrown into the stacks. Xander, being the closest person, run up to Buffy and felt her pulse, she was unconscious.
* * *
Buffy was once again in the crypts where she once died, but it was only her, and the First Evil.
“Welcome back Buffy.” said the First Evil.
“SEND ME BACK! I don’t wanna see anymore of your lies!” protested Buffy.
“LIES? You think that what I do are lies! I was the one who brought you back from the dead, and you know that!” exclaimed the Evil.
Just then Buffy tried to punch her, but her fist went right through her body.
“You can’t hurt me, I’m in a different existence than YOU!” she said. “I’m a GOD!” she continued, as she walked around Buffy. “I’m hell on earth, every drop of hate…”
“Not again! For a God, you don’t know when to shut up!” Buffy said calmly.
There was a silence.
“The strange thing with you mortals, is that a lot of you think that good will always prevail. I’m the cause for ALL the evil out there. I cause all the car accidents, all the disease. I cause all the evil! And you mortals seriously think that your Jesus will save you from me.”
“Then why don’t you just kill everything good out there?” Buffy asked with spite, trying to hurry the conversation along because she wanted to pummel the demons.
“Why? Because that would be a great perversion of my power…you mortals tend to get greedy with power, foolish.” The Evil responded, as if talking to a child.
“Well little-miss-lollipops, if good is weak in the world, then why do cancers go into remission, why do doctors save lives every day!?” Buffy questioned.
“Ofcourse there is good out there! But it is only a test for me. What’s the point of evil, if there isn’t good to corrupt. And I think you’re living proof of that.” The Evil said, looking Buffy straight in the eyes.
“What?” Buffy said in confusion.
“You were good, once, but then I filled you lust. In a moment of blind passion, you ruined peoples lives; Jenny Calendar’s, Giles, and ofcourse Angels. Don’t you get it? The last time I contacted you, you thought it was all about Angel.” She stopped walking around Buffy and sat down on a boulder. “Wrong! It was, has been, and always will be about you!”
* * *
“God is my saviour and will condemn you Satan Spawn!” Takul repeated.
“Giles! When will this end?” Willow said, watching Giles put a wet towel on Buffy’s forehead.
“I don’t know!” Giles yelled back. “I think until someone wins!”
“Then what??” Willow responded.
“Then I’m going to kill the winner!” declared Faith, already holding a sword, anticipating the drop of the force-field.
* * *
“Right now those two idiot demons are fighting over good and bad. And I believe that the satanic one is winning!” The Evil turned to Buffy. “Good for him!”
“So why did you bring me back, from the dead?” Buffy asked innocently.
“Because I have great plans for you Buffy, you don’t know it yet, but you have an extremely important part in the world, without you, it would end..” Evil said with passion in her eyes.
“Blah blah blah, if you mean Acathla, been there, done that.” Buffy said.
The Evil began to laugh.
“Do you seriously think that Acathla was it? You can’t even fathom your importance, without you the….” The evil stopped. “…I can’t say anymore, it’ll ruin it, let’s just say you embrace evil, you embrace me.”
“WHAT? Never! True, I was overcome with lust, but I eventually won! I made right my wrong, I killed Angel, and now, we’re closer than we’ve ever been. And thanks to you bringing him back, we’ve grown.” Buffy said, thinking she won the argument.
* * *
“SATAN!” said Taluk, as red beams of light started attacking Takul. Takul was weakening, and Faith could see it, she’s ready to pounce.
* * *
“YOU WON!? That’s ludicrous! You have no idea what the future holds for you Ms. Summers, and when it happens, you’ll know who the real winner is.” The Evil asserted.
“You’ll never win, not as long as I have faith, faith in myself, and faith in good. I know I’ll win against you!”
“Faith? Your faith is flawed, your trust is blind. Do you really think your faith will destroy your destiny?”
“YES! IT WILL!” Buffy protested.
“Don’t you GET IT??” The Evil was starting to get annoyed. “I’m the past, present, and the future, I’ve lived the past, living the present, and seen the future…” The Evil stopped and started to whisper into Buffy’s ear in an almost sensual voice. “…and I win.”
* * *
“God! Why have you forsaken me!?” Cried the losing brother as Taluk’s evil was cutting him up. The scooby gang was laying on the ground watching in an almost hypnotic trance. The good was being defeated by the evil.
And just then the gang saw Takul glow with a blinding light as he suddenly faded away. He lost.
Takul gleamed with the fact he won! “Centuries of hunting him down! Centuries of trying to win good, trying to kill my brother! And I WON!” The mystical force-field dropped and Faith jumped in the air to kill Taluk, but Taluk waved his hand and Faith went flying the other direction, landing on the carpet.
“Satan won.” were the last two words he said, before he disappeared.
* * *
There was silence, and the Evil broke it.
“Be seeing ya.”
And with that, Buffy woke from her state of unconsciousness with a gasp.
* * *
Buffy looked around, nobody noticed that she was revived. She saw the astonished faces on the scooby gang, and Faith stand up, rubbing the shoulder that she landed on.
“Is everything okay??” Buffy asked.
“BUFFY!” said Willow. “You okay?”
Buffy ofcourse wasn’t, after having that conversation with the Evil. “Yup, I’m fine…what happened?”
“I don’t know.” said Giles, replaying the moments in his head.
“That was weird.” Willow ended.
* * *
The next morning Buffy went to school, and was contemplating whether to tell Giles, or Angel for that matter, what has been happening to her. She was scared, not even the news of the faculty discovering Oz asleep in the Music room in his boxers put a smile on her face.
Early morning Giles explained the competition of the two brothers, of who’d kill each other, essentially a battle of good versus evil. And the evil won.
The rest of the scooby gang passed it by, acting as if it was a normal day living on the Hellmouth, which it was, but Buffy knew it was more than that. Buffy knew that it wasn't irony, it was something the First Evil planned, symbolizing Buffy’s future, whatever it will be.
