 Title: "Made To Be Broken" Retrograde Chapter 23
Author: guardian_erin
Rating: R
Warnings: Major character death, minor character death, blood, torture, murder, violence, brief mentions of sex, rape, and suicide, and bad language.
Fandom: Btvs/Ats crossover
Pairing: Galen(Spike)/Buffy
Prompt: The Tower (for drastic, tragic change)
Chapter Summary: The Scoobies storm Wolfram and Hart while Eamon tries to do some investigating of his own. Not everyone gets to live.
Teaser: "Don't," Angel begged, lifting up his childe's head as he held him, but realized that the words were already completely useless. He trembled as he began to gather up his childe's cold body, absently disconnecting the last few wires that were taped to him. Angel wrapped him up in the sheet as a crude attempt to keep him warm. He had to keep him warm, because he was so badly wounded… so injured that he seemed as if dead. He only seemed as if he were dead.

"Wow, this chapter was just amazing. I really loved it. You did an amazing job writing the siege against Wolfram and Hart. Totally enjoyed the whole Lilah torture done by Buffy." ... "Anyway, you should really be proud of this chappy. I'm so looking forward to the next one." - darklover on FanFiction.net
