Buffy the Mom
[reviews]
-Okay readers, this is the three part post-Chosen epilogue, enjoy.-
As I laying here screaming and cursing, I am actually feeling nostalgic. It's been almost four years, one apocalypse and a death scare for both Mom and I, but thankfully, the Scoobies made it out of the destruction of Sunnydale alive. And now, we are strewn across the globe.
Well after Danny was born, Wil and I got to spend the first couple of months with him before going back to school. And what do you know, nobody tried to kill me in my second year. Well none of my professors anyway. The vamps still had it in for Faith and I, but at least didn't have to avert any apocalypses which freaked Giles some, but when Mom got sick, she took up most of his time. Thankfully, the doctors were able to remove the brain tumor, so she could continue being a mother to the Scoobies.
Our junior year started off normal enough, but me being Buffy, weird stuff started to happen. No, the vampire stuff was normal, but there was something else in town causing all the oddities. Come to find out, it was three geeks wanting to rule Sunnydale. Plus two of them, I had saved before, and then things almost went real bad. I had stopped the Troika, as they referred to themselves, but the scab, Warren, got away. Come next morning, he wanted revenge which almost cost me Willow.
Warren shot me in the chest, but thankfully, he was a lousy shot. The only problem was that Wil wanted Old Testament justice from him, and she almost succeded. Luckily, Tara and Faith used Daniel and I to talk her down, and after some 'convincing' by Faith, Warren turned himself in. The two weeks it took my Slayer healing to repair the bullet damage were the best. I got to play with Danny constantly while Willow spoiled us both.
If you took everything I have faced and sent it at me all at once, it wouldn't come close to what ultimately caused the destruction of Sunnydale which is why when the First started chomping, I sent Mom, Dawnie, and Danny to stay with Angel in LA. There, they would be safe and protected. And since it was my senior year and was majoring in psychology, I got an internship at the new Sunnydale high as a counselor.
Long story short, the First wanted to wipe out the Slayer line. It was doing a great job until we finally got on the offensive. There was a happy/sad moment when Giles' Watcher friend Robson showed up with three potentials. Apparently, an agent of the First blew us the Council when it was in session. I felt bad for most of them, but Travers had that coming. That man had so much bad karma stocked up, it was bound to kill him.
Anyhoo, thanks to Angel's 'friends' at Wolfram & Hart, we made Sunnydale a sinkhole. Then, we drove to LA to heal. Well, Wil and I were going for Danny and Giles for Mom while Kennedy, one of the new slayers, was desperate to get back to Dawnie. Oh yeah, my little sis is on her third girlfriend. After her and Janice broke up when Janice's parents moved them out of Sunnydale there was Kit, but when things got real hairy, they split too. In walks Kennedy, they may have only had a few days before Dawn got sent away, but they made the most of them.
Now on the bus ride, Wil and I shared a Slayer-like dream where the PtBs came to us and said that I was getting the gift of Wil's child in which they promised me that that she would be a normal girl. Once we reached LA, Giles and Robson with the help of Wes tracked down the Council's holdings while the coven tracked down all the newly activated Slayers, so they could be contacted and told of their (possible) destiny. We found out later that the Slayer line is still continuing with new Slayers being activated once they reach the age of fourteen.
And once everything settled down, or as settled down as my life gets, Wil and I headed to England with Mom, Giles, Dawn, Kennedy, Wes, Fred, and a whole slew of new slayers. Tara and Faith with Xander and Anya went to Cleveland to keep an eye on that Hellmouth with some of the more experienced slayers. Then when the new Slayers' Council was built, I was named Head Mistress, which Willow enjoys using in bed.
So here I am nine or so months later screaming my head off while Willow is playing cheerleader. It is at this moment that I respect her, Mom, and any other woman who has given birth. They are the strongest people because it hurts like hell now, but give me a few days, and the Slayer healing will have me good as new because I remember Wil being uncomfortable for awhile after Danny was born.
Now I am pushing as instructed while Willow has the bar in my hand that saves her fingers from being crushed. When I heard my daughter's wailing, I collapsed back onto the bed. I was aware of all the hustle and bustle around me, but until Willow laid my baby girl in my arms, I hadn't been really paying attention, but as I looked down into to her green eyes, I started to cry.
"Taylor Christine Rosenberg-Summers, that is what I want to call her Wil," I sobbed out looking up at wife.
"Taylor and Danny. My sweet Buffy, you have given me the family that I have always wanted, and I can't wait to grow old with you and our grand kids," Willow said starting to cry herself.
"Good lord Wil, Taylor was just born, and Danny is only three, layoff the grandkid talk for awhile. Besides, who says we're done," I smirked pulling Willow down for a kiss before kissing Taylor's forehead.
