Sometimes…no matter how hard you fight…you still lose…Missing Heroes.

Book 12: Strange Portends

Xander cleared his throat and began to read. “Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered, I have fought my way here... ”

Giles sighed exasperatedly and pulled the paper out of Xander’s hand, flipping it over. “This one.”

Flesh, blood, bone and metal stand proud: warriors for the Light.

To halt that set in motion from the birth of time and sight.

To counter this protection, the Dark offers soldiers to the fray,

Those with grudges and full of malice; who have a debt to pay.

Lines shall blur together as dimensions start to bend,

Adding confusion and discord as things near the end.

Those dear can’t be trusted, while adversaries sometimes can,

Choose battles wisely, or risk straying from the plan.

Allies will come from unlikely places, never close your heart,

And enemies will be born again to rip the world apart.

The battles will be long and hard, and before the evil’s purged,

those places now kept separate will once again be merged.

“I think I liked the first one better,” Buffy grumbled.
