Chosen. Buffy's Answer / Response.

[atticus]

The final scene of Buffy The Vampire Slayer.

Giles : We have a lot of work ahead of us...

Faith : Can I push him in?

Willow : You got my vote.

Faith : I just wanna sleep, yo. For like a week.

Dawn : I guess we all could. If we wanted to.

Willow : Yeah, the First is scrunched, so...What do you think we should do, Buffy?

Faith : Yeah, you're not the one and only chosen anymore. Just gotta live like a person. How's that feel?

Dawn : Buffy? What are we gonna do now?

Buffy looks at them, looks back at the crater, and we are in full close up as she considers the question, a small smile creeping onto her lips as she decides on her answer.

So what did Buffy say ?

Think about it people. Make it sad, funny, stupid, silly, mean or meaningful.
Whatever you want really.
You can take season 8 into account if you want, or just write what you always wanted her to say.

Here's mine. I'm going with mean, because i'm like that. 🙂

Dawn : Buffy? What are we gonna do now?

Buffy : What are we gonna do now? Well I know what i'm going to do now. I really don't care what you're going to do. You kicked me out of my home. You think I'd just forget about that ? You're all on your own. Screw you guys, I'm going to Vegas. 🙂

 

[MinwaraYana]

Buffy : I'm gonna love Faith. (sw)

 

[Clem Rocks]

Buffy: Now, we have an orgy

Then afterwards

Buffy: Wow, you girls were great, i hope none of the potentials are attractive....

Cuz we all love abit of foreshadowing 😉

 

[Perny]

Dawn "Buffy? What are we gonna do now?"
Buffy walks over, and hugs Dawn intensely. She looks at the group of friends she holds so dear, and looks back at the crater.
"We have to get out of here..."
The group nods, and walks back to the bus. Buffy stands alone for a moment, in honor of those who died in the battle. Faith sticks her head out of the window.
"Yo B! Ya ready?"
Buffy begins walking to the bus, with a face showing no emotions. What will the future bring? What dangers lies ahead for them?
"Ready!"

She should have reused a great quote from season 2 (?) 'We saved the world, I say we party.' 😉
Or, if not, I think she would have said something about going to find more slayers around the world. After all, that would probably go through her head eventually.

 

[Edmund Blackadder]

Buffy: Well I don't know about you guys, but I am aching for a monster shit. I haven't had one in days and right now, I'm prairie dogging!

Dawn: Whats prairie dogging?

Xander: You know when a Prairie Dogg lifts it head out of a hole in the ground to see whats happening, then disappears.

Dawn: Ohh, yeah, right. (A few beats later) Ewww Buffy!

Buffy: Smiles again Hmmm, silent but deadly.

 

[Kean]

Somehow I managed to turn that simple question into a bit of a fic. Ooops!


Buffy's smile still shone as she tore eyes away from the gapping hole that Sunnydale had left in the Californian desert. Only she could see hope in a bottomless pit.

Five sets of eyes, ok four and half, gazed at her with anticipation...expecting her once again to provide the answers.

Buffy: Well first and foremost, we need to find a mall and stat. I ruined my boots running from the apocolypse. I live in hope that someday I will be able to save the world and my outfit at the same time.

Nothing.

They looked back at her blankly.

Clearly that wasn't the answer they had been looking for.

They were not used to this Buffy, full of sunshine and dreamy eyes. Heck, they hadn't even seen a genuine smile, one that didn't make her cheeks crack and her eyes lie, since before she died...um..the second time.

Buffy wanted more than anything to hold on to this feeling she had welling up in her. There was the tentative beginnings of a new life springing up in her mind, its roots digging in and tangling their way to her heart.

Willow's voice broke her reverie

Willow: Seriously Buffy, what will we do?

And just like that the feeling vanished and the heaviness of power and responsibility settled atop her shoulders anew.

So much for not being the one and only anymore.

With one last longing look to where Sunnydale once stood Buffy turned her back on evrything she had known and made her way to the bus.

She placed her hands on her hips and regarded her troops.

Troops.

Still an army. Still a war. Still fighting.

That was a very sobering thought.

She cleared her throat and looked at them all.

Buffy: Right now, we need rest, food and the emergency room.

A ragged cough escaped Woods mouth and Buffy and Faith looked on with concern

Buffy: Not necessarily in that order.

She paused while she collected her thoughts once more.

Buffy: I think L.A. is our best bet right now. For a couple of days anyway but like Willow said there are Slayers everywhere. We're gonna have to find them, and set up a base camp...somewhere.

The sheer enormity of the task she had just undertaken hit Buffy. Hard.

What the hell have I done?

Buffy: The last few months have been hard on all of us, I think maybe we should all take some time and think about what we want to do. What we want to do individually. We've sacrificed alot.

Her gaze fell on Xander, his head fallen and her heart tightened in her chest. She thought of Anya and wanted to cry...which inevitvibly brought her to visions of Spike and that made her want to cry some more.

The initial joy of victory had seeped out of the group and now they were entangled in the grief of the situation.

They nodded their heads, each one lost in their own world.

Buffy herded the weary soldiers back onto the bus and just before she climbed up herelf she snuck one last long look at Sunnydale. A single tear traced the lonely path of her cheek.

Goodbye.

 

[VisionGuy]

Buffy breaks down and starts crying.

Buffy: I can't believe Spike is dead! I just realized he is the love of my life and now he is gone! I can't live like this! I'm coming Spikey!!!

Buffy jumps in the hole.

 

[Kean]

Edmund Blackadder agrees: Meh - I prefer mine!

Edmund Blackadder agrees: I prefer mine against this as well!

Of course you do.

 

[Clem Rocks]

"Kean agrees: How did I know you would go with the orgy...*shakes head*"

Because it's well known that i'm a dirty little perv? lol

 

[Aly Fan]

Buffy : Well it's time for one last surprise..."
She turns around to look over the heads of everyone...Willow turned around slowly to see what all the fuss was about...and there, walking towards her is Tara, she then kicks Kennedy and runs into the loving embrace of Tara 🙂 Now they can truely be forever 😀

 

[Revolver]

Interesting that this topic comes up today, because I just started writing a comedic take on what would happen to Buffy and friends after "Chosen" (I don't read the comic books and none of it is meant to be serious in the first place so I don't bother trying to match it up with them). I won't post it here now though. I need to finish the project in it's entirety.

So what did Buffy say ?

"You guys are in for a rude awakening. We haven't won jack s**t, all we've done is get the bad guys REALLY stirred up. Buckle your seat belts, kiddies, 'cause now the ride's gonna get really, really rough. You ain't seen NOTHING yet."

 

[Perny]

^ XD If Buffy suddenly turned into a Samuel L Jackson I'd see this happening. If not...then no...But hey..Maybe she just ran low on her daily pills

 

[Joan the Vampire Slayer]

Dawn : Buffy? What are we gonna do now?

Buffy: (she turns and smiles at Dawn). Whatever we want. The world is ours.

😉

 

[Edmund Blackadder]

Buffy: I think we're going to have a couple of years off and then maybe star in a comic book detailing our lives.
Oh oh oh, and I'ma be the big bad...I farted again!

 

[Perny]

^ Fine...no more seriousness!!!!!


"First of all you guys.. We need to do crossdressing. I've always wanted us all to try it, but couldn't find the time because of the hole behind us. Now I'm the leader, and I say Giles should find a pretty red dress, and Andrew should go 70's disco!"

*Andrew is heard wohoo'ing in the back*

"Ooh...and I have to use the bus bathroom..I just pooted"

 

[VisionGuy]

Dawn: Buffy, what are we gonna do now?

Buffy: I think I want to get you back for making me jump into that portal two seasons ago.

Buffy runs toward Dawn. Dawn starts screaming and running from Buffy.

Willow: Thank Hecate! Now that Tara and Joyce aren't here, we don't have to put up with your constant whining!

Willow starts shooting lighting bolts at Dawn who dodges each and every one of them.

Dawn: XANDER! GILES! HELP ME!

Giles takes his glasses off and starts wiping them with a hanky while Xander whistles a jaunty tune.

Andrew: I'll protect you Dawnie. I won't let anybody....

Buffy interrupts him with a pimp smack to the face.

Dawn screams some more as Buffy gets a hold of her.

Dawn: No Buffy. Don't do this. I am your sister. You love me.

Buffy hold Dawn over her head as she walks towards the crater.

Buffy: You are NOT my sister. You are just a thing that's been costing us viewers for the last three years. Today, I'm giving everyone exactly what they wanted from the start.

Dawn: NO! BUFFY!!!

Buffy starts slowing down, drops Dawn, and starts clutching her chest.

Buffy: Oh my God. I think.... I'm having a heart attack. You have got to be KIDDING ME!

Dawn gets up from the ground.

Dawn: Buffy? No, please you have to fight it.

Buffy: Dawnie....... I..... I...... hate your guts. Here I come Spike!

Buffy drops dead.

Dawn stares at her dead sister in disbelief.

Dawn: Buffy......

Willow shoots Dawn with a lightning bolt killing her.

 

[toxicatingme]

dawn: what are we going to do now?
Buffy: I say we go get some food, im starving
(they all laugh and go on the bus)

I have no idea what happened next or what Buffy said next. I kinda like that the show went out on a half-smile. I mean, wait another beat, and they'd be in full-on emergency mode in terms of dealing with the wounded. Once medical aid was obtained, the gang would have to leap some legal hurdles, as I'm sure a bus full of weird war wounds typically results in some sort of official investigation. Next would come logistics like where to sleep and what to eat and how in the heck to fuel up this bus. Finally, once the immediate needs were all taken care of, I'm sure there would be grief and recrimination aplenty, what with the dead Scoobies, the dead new slayers, and the giant crater that used to be Sunnydale. I'm glad the series ended on a high note, instead. Whatever Buffy would have said next probably would have been something of a downer.
