Part One

2000

One lone girl sat cross-legged before a tombstone, her fingers traced along the worn ridges of her name, and his, as she had done so for the past 45 years, this tradgedy had traumatized her as a human, but made her see a new light as what she was now, an immortal. Every night she layed flowers on their grave and thought of them. The smell of lilac's filled the graveyard for the past forty years. She shed a tear, and left the graveyard to her home, her home with Duncan.

"Your home earlier than usual tonight." A man with long black hair tied back with a cord said sadly with a tinge of a scottish accent.

"I had to leave, too many memories." Willow said as she smiled sadly and set her sword down, along with her coat.

"I know how you feel you'd think it gets easier with time." Duncan stated as he pulled her into his arms. Willow stared into space, deep in thought as she held onto Duncan.

"So red, you gonna ask Oz to the sadie Hawkin's dance, it seem's to me he's been gettin' all swoony around ya!" Buffy asked Willow as she chewed gum.

"I dunno, you think he'd say yes?" Willow asked a hint of shyness in her tone as she spit her gum out and pulled out a new piece.

"Come on Willz, you've helped me save the world like 50 times, and you can't even ask Oz out? You can do it! Just do the talking thing." Buffy said as she nudged her.

"I guess I'll have to find out, thanks Buff." Willow said as a smile crossed her face.

"I asked Angel and he agreed to take me, I love him to death! What a dreamboat!" Buffy exclaimed as they walked down school halls.

"You two are so cute! I am such a sucker for star crossed romances, with him being a vampire and all." Willow added as they sat on a bench and smoothed out their 50's style skirts.

"I think it just might work out." Buffy said happily.

"I hope your right Buff." Willow whispered to herself, she worried for her best gal pal.

2000

Willow smiled as she looked down on Duncan sleeping, he has been so good to her, he had helped her through everything since the tradgedy happened, after she died...

1954

"Oh god Willz." Buffy cried as she sobbed into Willow's shoulder.

"I didn't know, I didn't know what would happen, I loved him! It's all my fault." Buffy cried as Willow comforted Buffy.

"Shh, Buffy, you had no idea that there was a curse, I know you loved him." Willow murmured as her heart broke for her best friend, she didn't know how Buffy could survive with all that had happened, it wasn't her fault Angel had killed Miss. Calender.

2000

Willow went into the kitchen and got a glass of water, she couldn't sleep, the memories flooded her like a wave of water....

1955

"ANGEL!!!!!!" Buffy screamed as the roof of the old run down building they were raiding vampires for fell on Angel. Angel had gotten his soul back and they were together again.

Buffy ran to the debris where Angel once was and wailed, her body shaking. "I promise we'll be together again Angel." Buffy whispered.

Willow witnessed the debris falling and helplessly stood there frozen, she heard what Buffy whispered as she dropped her candle, and clutched to Xander.

2000

"Can't sleep?" Duncan asked as came from behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist in the kitchen.

"How could I sleep on the anniversary?" Willow answered sullenly.

1956

Seven vampires rushed Buffy and Willow as they were walking through the graveyard, they did their best to fight them off..

"Buffy! There's too many!" Willow yelled as she managed to kill one of the vamps by simply holding the stake in front of her, he impaled himself on the stake, Willow turned around just in time to be punched out by some vampire, she fell to the ground. Buffy fought and staked five of them, Willow came to as Buffy was fighting the last one, she got up to take on the sixth one, she felt dizzy. She flailed her fists at the vamp, but he pulled her arms behind her with won hand, grabbed the stake out of Willows hand and staked her in the heart.

"Take some of your own medicine sugar." The vamp retorted as she smiled gleefully at seeing blood start to leak out of Willow's mouth. Willow looked around in shock and fell to her knees, the grinning vampire turned to dust. Buffy's face contorted at the sight before her, her best friend was dying before her eyes. Buffy ran to Willow and cradled her in her arms.

"It's okay Red, your gonna pull through, just hold on!" Buffy cried as she gently pulled the stake out and applied pressure, but to know avail. Willow was dead. Buffy's world shattered as she rocked back and forth with the dead Willow.
