Buffy, Xander and I jumped over the fence. Buffy and I landed on our feet gracefully while Xander chose to land on his face.

(Yelena's black widow landing)

"Back way?" Xander asked after we helped him up.

"Back way." Buffy kicked the door down as we marched in looking for Willow. We came across a guard who tried to stop us, but Buffy knocked him out with a single punch.

"Uh, Buffy! Lucy!" We looked at the monitor showing Willow talking to a tall figure.

"It's her!"

"Yeah, who's that other guy?"

We finally made it to the lab doors, but they were locked.

"I can't bust it. It's heavy steel."

"Then let's find another way in." Xander starts towards a door only for an alarm and red flashing lights to start going off.

"What's going on?"

"Building's security system is computerized."

"Whoops!" A gas starts spraying into the hall. We started banging on the doors, but it was starting to get too much for us. Xander slid down to floor, beginning to lose consciousness as Buffy and I continued hitting the door. We finally broke it down and found Moloch screaming in pain. Buffy leapt up and tried kicking him, only to fall onto the ground.

"Ow... Guy's made of metal!"

"No! I won't go back!" Buffy and I grabbed onto Willow as we rushed her out of the room. Xander quickly followed after letting us know he had hit someone.

We ran towards some doors, only to stop when we noticed a guard and two technicians heading towards us, so closed the doors again. Xander started off in the opposite direction.

"Let's go this way!"

"Wait!" Buffy yelled, but it was too late as Moloch crashed through the wall, standing between Xander and the rest of us. Moloch took one look at Xander before backhanding him, sending him to the floor, unconscious. He turned to Buffy, taking a swing at her, but luckily she managed to block it. However, he just used this to knock her into the wall. Buffy slid to the ground, as I stood protectively in front of Willow. I  felt my claws starting to grow.

I swung my arms about, managing to scratch at his metallic body, only for him to throw me into the doors angrily, dazing me.

"I was omnipotent. I was everything! Now I'm trapped in this shell!" He reached down to grab at Buffy's head.

"Malcolm!" Moloch turned to face Willow, who was holding a fire extinguisher. "Remember me? Your girlfriend?" She began to hit him with the extinguisher. Yes! Go, Will! "I think it's time we break up, but maybe we can still be friends."

Moloch, unfortunately, was able to overpower Willow, throwing the fire extinguisher to the side and shoving Willow into Xander. Moloch turned back to Buffy, who was finally able to stand up again. "This body is all I have left, but it's enough to crush you."

I noticed Buffy look to her side at a power junction box. She faced Moloch, slowly moving to stand in front of the box, with a smug look on her face. "Take your best shot."

Moloch raised his fist, just as Buffy managed to jump out of the way, resulting in him punching his way right into the high voltage electricity. Buffy and I ran to cover our friends as Moloch body started overloading, before his head came flying off.

It was the next day, and we were at school, sitting by the fountain. We were still trying to cheer Willow up after the whole Malcolm/Moloch incident.

"We going to go to the Bronze tonight, we four?" Xander suggests, looking at Willow.

"It'll be fun!"

"Yeah, Willow, fun? Remember fun? That thing where you smile? Except, Lucy."

"Hey! You do know me."

"Oh, I'm sorry, guys. I'm just thinking about..."

"Malcolm?"

"Malcolm, Moloch, whatever he's called. The one boy that's really liked me, and he's a demon robot. What does that say about me?"

"It doesn't say anything about you."

"I mean, I thought I was really falling..."

"Hey, did you forget?" Buffy interrupted. "The one boy I've had the hots for since I moved here turned out to be a vampire."

"Right. And the teacher I had a crush on? Giant praying mantis."

"And my first boyfriend only admitted his feelings after being possessed by a hyena spirit that tried to kill me." I chimed in.

"That's true."

"Yeah, it's life on the Hellmouth."

"Let's face it. None of us are ever going to have a happy, normal relationship."

"We're doomed."

"Yeah." We all laughed until the realisation of what we just said sunk in.

Fun...
