Part I







"I will find you again, I will always find you."



Willow’s eyes were fixed on the doll’s eye crystal that Tara once had innocently offered to her. She first had

refused the offer because she wouldn’t feel comfortable but later it had become a part of both of them, like a

symbol of their relationship. "Baby, I will try everything..."



"Hey Wills..." Buffy entered the room, trying to sound cheerily. She herself had been going through alot and still

wasn’t over it at all, it would take time, alot of time. She had lost a good friend in Tara and missed her much, and

she had almost lost her best friend at the same time. It had hurt her very much to see what became of Willow

after Tara’s death, but she also knew that she herself would probably have done the same. They’d just found

each other again the night before and then were divided again so brutally and quickly, it really wasn’t fair. It had

hurt her very much to see what became of Willow after Tara’s death They deserved so much more.



"Hey Wills," Buffy repeated after receiving no answer, "you daydreaming again?"



"Oh hey, sorry, I was thinking of..."



"You don’t have to tell me, I know. Wanna go out with me some time? I mean, Xander and me, just the three of

us. Would be fun. And will help you get back to normal..."



"Sounds nice, but I don’t feel like going anywhere, the pain is still so fresh and new, you know..."



"Shh, I understand."



Buffy took her in her arms and comforted her; for the last couple of days Willow had been completely

unemotional, now it was time for her to let go. She sobbed heavily in Buffy’s arms who made soothing noises

and gently rocked her and didn’t let go. "We all hurt Will. If there was any way to get her back I’d take it. But not

even darkest magic..."



Willow suddenly tensed. "I‘m sure there is a way, there has to be. If I have to go to the end of the world and back,

I’ll do it. I can’t live without her Buffy."



She stood up and stormed out of the room, leaving a kinda confused slayer behind. Willow headed as fast as

she could to the library, catched a couple of books and began to read on and on. From now on she’d spend

every free time in the library and did only return when she had classes or lunch. She hardly talked to anyone and

that certainly couldn’t be good; Buffy worried about her friend but she didn’t want to be overprotective, so she

decided to leave her alone for awhile. When Willow wanted or needed something she’d certainly come out

herself. But a part of her still was worried, and after a week when Willow came home rather exhausted, she

decided to take a visit to the library tomorrow, just to check that everything was okay. "And it’s not like I’m trying

to control her," she tried to convince herself. "I’m just making sure she doesn’t get hurt."



Next morning after class, Buffy was on her way to the library when Xander catched up with her and cheerily

greeted her. "Hey Xan."



"What’re ya doing Buff?"



"Going to the library...you know I wonder what Willow’s up to. Just making sure everything’s okay."



"You’re right. She wasn’t around much these days. I kind of miss her..."



"She’s changed since Tara’s death. We all have. I can see the hurt in her eyes...I think she wants to find a way to

get her back. She still is upset about everything that happened, I can’t blame her though...she’s been through

alot. I’m scared, Xan..."



He smiled at her, putting an arm around her shoulders. "Believe me, everything’s going to be allright again. I

promise. Tara didn’t die in vain, nobody lives and dies in vain."



"You know Xan, sometimes I’m not quite sure about that..."



Suddenly they heard something like an explosion coming directly from the library. They looked stunned at each

other and ran. "Willow, Willow, are you..." And again they stopped, overwhelmed by the sight. Willow was lying in

Tara’s arms, sobbing desperately, not able to ever let got again. "Shh, baby, it’s allright, I’ve got you, I’m here,

baby," the blonde witch whispered. She herself had tears of overwhelming joy in her eyes. "Please..." Willow

couldn’t help herself, she kissed the blonde again and again, nibbling at her lower lip. "Don’t you ever...leave me

again...I can’t live without you, I can’t..." Tara pressed her forehead against Willow’s and held onto her with all

her might. "Not leaving you again...never..."



"Tara! You’re back! You’re home!" Buffy still couldn’t believe what happened and hugged her friend tightly.

Xander followed her example. "But...but how?"



Tara smiled tenderly at Willow. "Magic and most of all...love..."



Buffy now had to sit down, her knees suddenly weak, and sighed heavily. "Okay, now would you please tell us

everything from the beginning?"



Willow sat down on the couch, Tara moved next to her and lay her head in Will’s lap. Willow caressed her gently

and the other witch almost purred under that touch and closed her eyes, enjoying what she had missed the most.

Title: The Resurrection

Part II



"Okay, here goes..." Willow sighed deeply and tried to collect her thoughts. She captured her lover’s hand and

squeezed it tightly to make sure she was really there.



Then she began to tell the events of the last week, trying to keep her emotions







After her conversation with Buffy Willow had regained hope that there must indeed be a way to get the other

witch back, so she did the only thing that came into her mind right now: reading and collecting as much

information as she could. There were a couple of books that could be interesting, they all were focused on death

and reincarnation and stuff. She concentrated on astral projection; there had to be a possibility to communicate

with Tara, at least with her ghost, and Willow would if that’s what it took fall onto her knees and beg her to come

back.



Luckily she had the library for herself, so there was almost no one to bother her, students rather occupied their

afternoons with their friends at the Bronze or doing homework together with them. But she nevertheless did a

protection spell to guarantee no one would even have the idea to come over.



So she read on and on, never giving up hope. And she wasn’t disappointed: there was a ritual described that

really could be useful. It was strange and dangerous, but it was worth a try. There were a few conditions though:

she had to make contact with her body, to touch it. That was easier said than done, because Tara had been

dead already over a month and her body was at the cemetery, and at the cemetery it usually wasn’t very safe,

especially at night. And anyway, she wouldn’t be able to carry the body to the library without anybody noticing.

There was only one way: she needed help, help and protection. She thought a moment, then took out her cell

phone and dialed.







Willow smiled guiltily at the slayer who frowned. "Wait, I never received any phone call..."



"I, I didn’t want to bother you with this stuff, you were so busy all the time, and you had to go through so much, I

wanted you take a rest of all these things..."



Buffy seemed shocked. "What Willow, hey, you’re my best friend, Tara’s important to me as well, how could you

even think...and anyway, who did you call then?"



Willow frowned and didn’t look at the slayer. "Faith."



Buffy’s jaw dropped. She felt hurt that Willow didn’t seem to have trust in her capabilities anymore, but mostly it

hurt that she didn’t even tell her what was going on and that she trusted Faith more than her after everything

they’d been through together.



"Well, that’s fine, you can call whoever you want of course." She didn’t look at Willow while saying this, trying to

cool down.



Tara had fallen asleep during Willow’s narration. Willow couldn’t blame her, she had gone through alot and was

exhausted. The redhead gently kissed her forehead, carefully stood up and got down on one knee before the

slayer, cupping her chin in her hand. "I only wanted you to be safe. I couldn’t risk to lose you again, you’re my

best friend, I love you. Never doubt my trust in you."



"Yeah, Willow, but...Faith...! Why her?"



"Because she’s the only other slayer I know, besides you of course..."



"You could at least have told me."



"I know, and I’m sorry. I will next time, I promise, Buffy. Please don’t be mad."



"I’m not mad, it’s just...I feel kinda left out."



Willow smiled and hugged her. "I understand, I really do. And I’m really sorry, I haven’t been the bestest bud

lately, but I’m gonna make it up to you."



Buffy smiled back and could only reply "Okay" before another voice squeaked in.



"Willow?"



"Yeah baby, are you okay? do you need something?" She quickly returned to Tara, her voice suddenly heavy

with concern. "I’m fine darling, just missed your presence..." Willow smiled relieved and moved back to the

couch into her previous position, Tara’s head carefully placed into her lap.



"Now, where were we...?"
