TtH Prompt: #94 Portal

Summary: Willow to the rescue.


A Way Home

Buffy breathed a sigh of relief as her senses tingled with the familiar sensation of Willow’s magic. The past two hours had been filled with tense silence with a side of a huge case of the guilties. Cameron had stayed by the boulder and no one had tried to talk to him. His posture indicated his desire to be left alone. Daniel had closed his eyes and apparently drifted off to sleep, and Vala remained uncharacteristically silent.

The slayer had done a quick sweep of the area. They had thankfully been in the middle of nowhere with no one or no thing in sight. The last thing she wanted or needed was to fight off a bunch of demons with everyone as distraught as they were.

She headed over to Daniel and Vala. “Get ready. The portal back home is gonna open soon.”

Vala solemnly nodded and moved to wake Daniel as Buffy headed over to Cameron.

“I’m not in the mood,” Cameron said, his southern accent a little thicker than usual.

“I know. I was just going to let you know that the portal is about to open,” she said. Then she started to turn away.

“How? By some telepathy?” He asked with a snort.

“No, although Willow and I have used it in the past. I just recognize her magic,” Buffy replied wearily. She pointed to an area nearby. “It’s forming there.”

“Great, another aspect of your abilities,” he muttered, knowing full well that she could hear him. He stomped off in the direction she had pointed.

“This one looks more stable and not quite as scary,” Daniel said, once the portal had formed.

“Willow made this one,” Buffy said as if that explained everything. “Let’s go home,” she said, gesturing for them to enter.
