It broke.

The magic, the spell, she felt it, she could feel it slipping and finally shattering, but that was okay. She didn’t need it anymore. Didn’t need the shroud over the past. Not when she was this close. There was nothing Buffy could even do anymore. Glory had called her minions to her, apart from the ones keeping her Key from focusing that pretty green energy on anything that might let her escape, the girl would be bruised and beaten by now. There were her minions who loved her, frickin worshipped her because she was awesome, and there were the crazies. And no Troll God's Hammer, she knew that for sure. Stupid Buffy, where had she gotten a hammer

But she didn’t have it here. No Hammer, no Godly lame. She wasn't worried. And she’d watch for construction machinery.

She was dressed in simple robes, a concession to Ben for when they got home. He was a treacherous little snit when he wanted to be, had fallen right into the fold the second time around like a good little host body. He might even do well back home, and she could totally end him if he did betray her. But she didn’t think that he would. He’d accepted her. He’d gotten Dawnikins.

She waited nervously tapping her foot, Dawn was chained to a wall not far from her, soon she’d be ready, she’d worked so hard on this, On the seal. The one right in Lawrence. It wasn’t visible but it made her tingly to be near, Dawn’s blood, and the right magic would tear it apart. They were so close to completion, so ready to bleed the little brat, only a few minutes now, a few short minutes and she would be home.

And there would be no robot fooling her this time, Not again. Even if there HAD been one. Stupid robot girl had slowed her down.
“Hey Dawnie...you doing okay over there sweetie? I know its got to suck. But I had to lock you down. You know you’d only try to run. And I don’t want to hurt you. I mean...y’know. Till I bleed you. Cause that right there...that’s gonna hurt like a bitch, and be slow. But you know that from last time don’t you? I mean he even says he's sorry for hurting you and all, but not being real. You'll be happier as energy I swear. You'll be doing what you're supposed to do, what you were MADE to do. Isn't that better...And your sister will follow you to death anyway so you don't even need to worry. Bitch has it coming. I have a list. Wrecking ball jerk is on it too. Pity the glinda-witch isn't here. I'd have fun with her. Can mess up her girl again though"

"Um...Your most divine and well accessoriedness in whose splendiferious radiance we bask eternal? Might I interrupt your magnificance’s taunting?"

Aw Jinx. He was totally her favourite. She looked down and patted him on his creepy bumpy little minion head

"What is it, are they here...?"

"We think they are nearby yes..."

Glory grinned and grabbed one of her prettier swords. This would be fun. She was about to dismiss the minion when she thought about something very important, very very. How could she have forgotten?

"Do I look good Jinxy, Do I look ready to go home?!!." she asked him with a beaming grin that was ready to turn at any second. He’d better answer right. He was so gonna be in trouble if he didn’t.

Dawn was straining against the chains, trying desperately to see what was happening. She was glad she was taller than most of Glory's minions this time, but thanks to some a bunch of trees, she really couldn't see what was going on. All she could go by was what she heard-and it sounded pretty scary. There was lots of weapons sounds and demon-death sounds, along with an occasional cry from the crazy people.

Which was better then their chantings.

The teen could also see glimpses of people through the trees, though all she saw was a head here and a face there. Nothing too clear. In the meantime, she was making the demons angry at her-not that they could do anything about it without Glory. She had, after all, spent the last month learning anything she could from anyone who would teach her.

She'd also learned a lot in the year-plus since she'd been in this position before.

Any time one of the demons came near her, it ended up with a boot in butt, or head, or anything else that came within range. She was more vicious in keeping them away from her than she'd ever been in fighting before.

No way was she going to let them bleed her, and cause Buffy to feel forced to sacrifice herself again to close the portal.

Speaking of, where was her sister? "Buffy!?" She cried out, trying to see if she could spot her through the trees.

Xander knew what he had to do. There was no way in hell he was going to try and stand up against Glory (which was a shame, because his previous experience with the wrecking ball of doom was pretty darn awesome), so Xander immediately agreed to track Dawn down and find her before it was too late. As terrified as he was for everyone involved with the fight, Xander knew that nothing here was more important than finding and getting Dawn out of harms way before Glory cut her open and opened up that portal of hers. So while the supers were off fighting Glory with Buffy, Xander was busy searching for Dawn with Vi and Tim. The search wasn't going to be an easy one though - not with those demons running around. It was why Xander had come to the fight fully equipped with his favorite (and only) crossbow. Knowing that the other two were watching his back, Xander began pushing forward and into the heat of the battle. Off to the side, he could spot Buffy and Glory, but he didn't (even though he would have preferred to) focus on what was going on with them. Xander instead moved ahead, firing off a bolt from his crossbow and into the chest of one of Glory's hideous minions.

"Keep moving, guys!" Xander shouted, advancing in the direction of the demon he'd shot down. They were going to have to clear themselves a path if they wanted to get to Dawn in time. No need to worry about fighting all the baddies. Just make a path and move. That was the plan. At least, it was Xander's plan.

When another demon lunged at him, Xander jumped back and barely missed the brunt end of what looked like would have been a painful blow. He kicked a leg out and sent the demon stumbling back, then effectively fired another bolt. This time, he hit the demon in the face and watched with satisfaction as it toppled to the ground, the end of the arrow sticking out of it's head.

Vi had heard about the first time Glory had come to Sunnydale. Heard in the way where it came from a source many times removed and details had been changed and forgotten so that the story itself didn't tell the truth and nothing but. But she had seen the trouble that Glory had caused here. The insane, the injured, and now, kidnapping Dawn. So when Buffy gave her the order to help Xander find Dawn, she had her mission and nothing but success was acceptable.

As they waded into battle, Vi kept looking. Buffy had Glory engaged, people were pushing back the minions and trying to keep the victims engaged and out of danger. For a hodge podge kind of team, they really made it work. She just prayed that everyone came out of it in one piece, sanity restored, and unbled.

"Right behind yo-!" Vi yelped in surprise as a hand grabbed a handful of red ponytail and yanked back. She caught a brief glimpse of minion, the killable ones, before she brought her weapon up and around. The head rolled off the shoulders, fingers loosening in her hair as she shoved the body away. Lowering her shoulder, she shoved someone else aside as she rushed to catch up with Xander.

This was one of those times when hack and slash was acceptable. Vi swung again, earning a pained yelp from another demon. "Get lost!" she snapped, glancing around to make sure Xander and Tim were still in sight. Now they just had to locate Dawn. Given a moment to adjust, Vi stood up on the tips of her toes, trying to see out over the battle.

In the office Tim had gone for the incognito look, but now? There was no reason. He needed every weapon in his arsenal and his suit was more practical then trying to conceal weapons under his clothes. He ditched his civis and covered Vi and Xander. Both of them had more demon experience then him so he took their cues and whatever orders came with them without argument. He was perfectly capable of following orders, it was just a role reversal for him that they didn't come from Batman or other costumed type. But none of that mattered, he was just worried about Dawn. Tim's arsenal was a bit different than theirs. In a black gloved hand he gripped a deadly sharp batterang and had several emergency R's that were just as lethal if he needed backups.

"10-4." Police talk to Xander's order, a nasty habit he picked up from Dick when on the field that he'd have to remember to break later. He couldn't think of anything snarky, he was focused on Dawn and staying alive. No super powers and no demon advantage meant he had to be alert and aware to everything that surrounded them, and he was. Piercing ice blue eyes behind his domino mask searched through the sea of demons and things with teeth and claws in attempt to find a hint of Dawn. So far nothing. Just alot of ugly evil minions getting in there way. The killable ones were ahead. Robin had their backs.

"I thought I heard someth-woah!" He'd heard a voice, but it was hard to pick out with all the others around them and all the demons wanting them dead. He was interrupted by a demon that tried to plow into him like the juggernaut flattened walls, and he jumped up on it's shoulder, kicking it to the ground and landing behind it. The demon stumbled and landed to the ground on it's chest, Tim threw a battering with a deadly and sickening accurate force into it's spine as he got his footing. The weapon stuck there and Tim straightened up. "I thought I heard something over there." He pointed in the distance infront of them the direction he thought he heard it. Then out of the corner of his right eye he saw movement. "Xander, duck!" There was a demon coming at him from the angle Tim was facing. Making sure he was down he leaned and launched another sharpened batterang at that ones throat before it could get within a foot of the scooby. He was getting faster as the adrenaline kicked in.

It was a good thing that Xander had been looking back to listen to Tim at the time. When he suddenly shouted for him to duck, Xander had been listening enough to react instantly. Dropping down and moving to the right, Xander narrowly avoided being pummelled with one of the infamous batarangs. Damn, he really wanted to mess around with those. Oracle was teaching him though, so maybe next time...no, no. Focus, Harris. He had to keep his geekish fanboy habits to a negative capacity right now. They needed to focus on Dawn. Because if Glory got to her before they did? That was it. Game over. Not to mention, the possibility of Buffy dying again. Xander did not want for Buffy to die again. He just wouldn't have it. So, setting his jaw, Xander straightened up, shot Robin an appreciative look, and turned back to the fight. Re-loading his crossbow, Xander fired off a few more shots at incoming targets and began to lead the way deeper into the fray.

It was right when he was looking to take down another demon when he heard it. Distant, but definitely recognizable. Dawn was crying out Buffy's name. Somewhere...somewhere - but where? A fist jumped out from the mass of bodies, striking Xander across the side of his face. Stumbling back, Xander winced. Unlike some of the others in the fight, he bruised a bit more easily. Human and non-superpowered and all. But that didn't slow him down, oh no. Xander was used to the ouch part of fights like these. That's what happened when you hung out with one Buffy Summers for as long as he had. Swinging a fist out, Xander hit the demon in the face, then used the end of his crossbow to strike the demon again. A foot lifted up high enough for Xander to kick him in the gut, in which he used the advantage of the doubled over demon to land in another arrow.

Dawn was weakening. She knew it. It'd been a long night, and she was so worn out from fighting, trying to keep the demons away from her. They were actually starting to get a little closer to her with the knives, and she began kicking towards their hands, trying to knock them away.

If they managed to get her to start bleeding, either she would die, or Buffy would.

Dawn also continued to peer through the trees. She thought she could hear voices she recognized, but her sister still had not appeared. Her terror began to rise. Was Buffy already dead? Would Glory be the next face she saw, coming through the trees? Or would it be Ben, which would be even worse, because he had chosen to do this to her?

"BUFFY! Someone, help!?" She cried out again, the words cutting off in a slight sob as she kicked out at another demon who came too close. "Get AWAY!"

Vi glanced over to catch one of the batarangs go flying over Xander's head and take down one more of the army rushing them. Yeah, they had Robin as backup. That was going to be bragging rights when she got back to her squad in New York. Not that they'd ever believe her but still, it was that cool.

She swung her weapon slow, taking down a demon at the knees and helping him along with a push. "Heard what?" she called back, but it turned out to be unneccessary. There was a familiar voice coming from nearby. They'd found Dawn. Now they just needed to get to her. She waited for her to call out again, to get a better idea of what direction to head in. When she heard her call out for her sister, she started running, barely taking time to cut down anyone who got in her path.

"This way!"
