Summary: Based end season six with some minor plot changes (see note on chap 1) Story is based around The Initiative WINNER OF THE ECSTASY AWARD (JUDGES AWARD) AT THE FORBIDDEN AWARDS round 8 - quote from the judge - I'm a sucker for a good Initiative fic, and this is one of the best I've read. Mabel is one of the best newer authors out there and I look forward to reading more of her stories.

This is based at the end of season six but the following things are different--------------
The story starts a year on from Spike's disappearance.-------------------
The Initiative is atill active. Adam never happened nor did Maggie Walsh make an attempt on Buffy's life---------------------

Riley and Buffy have split following a mutual descision when he got reassigned elsewhere--------------------------
Spike and Buffy had the season six destructive relationship but it was after the Riley break-up. Spike never attempted to rape Buffy----------------------

Giles didn't go back to England after Buffy was resurrected but stayed in Sunnydale--------------------
