Excellent as always.

Raf

Thank-you.

Wow, got sick with the flu, and a see this tale has ended with a cool blast... ok, not yet, but good ole Vesuvius is kinda explosive =D!.
So, a Varro jr. is on the way, niice. And yeah, Cordy was lucky in not getting pregnant.
Xander as a well, not such a bad guy, was cool, and the thing about the Fleece ante the bone soldiers was excellent, and the way they were defeated... awesomely funny.
And the black pig ; ) heheheh!.
The reunion it's getting closer, let's see if this Buffy can recognize Dawn.

Cool story dude, now onto the final book!.
See ya!!!

Glad you enjoyed.

Cheers,
D.

Oh what fun - I've just spent a happy big chunk of evening reading this. In amongst everything else I have to say that having them sail on the Black Pig was a touch of genius...

You noticed! Thank-you. Glad I helped you ewile away a few happy hours. See you in part 5?

Cheers,
D.

Good stuff, in this story, not often one sees Xander as a bad guy. Some interesting developments and interesting develpment with regard to Corelia and Dawn.
I look forward to the followups.

Thank-you, we try our best to please.

Xander as a bad-guy; well was he really that bad? Was he not more led astray? Whatever, bad-guy Xander is something I've been toying with for a while now my only problem has been how to make him the bad guy in the plot...I think I might have a couple of ideas!!!

Two great chapters in one day - you're spoiling us!

Dawn could have picked worse than Ishtar to watch over her, I think. Bad luck - one quickie and poor little Dawnie is left with the consequences.

Those poor slave girls will be begging for the salt mines by the time Cordy has finished with them!

At least Buffy seems happy, even in your version of Up Pompeii.

I'm eagerly awaiting the next part - thanks for writing this.

Thank-you much!

The last part of this story will be posted late Marck/early April unless something odd happens.

Cheers,
D.

Buffy is going to be VERY annoyed if she ever gets rid of that collar, I think.

By the gods! That was quick.

She's a 'big' sister, its her job to be annoyed...and maybe a little jealous.

Cheers,
D.

Oh dear - Dawn is missing the obvious, I think. Give it a couple of months though...

Never underestimate a persons ability to believe something isn't so.

Cheers,
D.

You know, back when Dawn was in Gethsemane, I was thinking that coitus interruptus isn't a very effective form of birth control.

And you'd be right!

Erotic slave-cheerleading? I look foward to seeing how that plays out. Almost enough to let the lack of dead Xanders pass me by (not enough of those on this site...) ;-)

Methinks Cordy is getting too fond of that collar in a kinky sort of way.

Good chapter.

It took me ages to think that up, but its so obvious when you think about it.

Dead Xanders? Actually I have thought of one but it could be ages before anything happens about him.

Cordy and the collar...read on!

Cheers,
D.

What a great idea! Much better than my dumb idea of stand and fight. After all, I'm just reading here. The minds requirement to accept or reject changes of how one thinks of oneself is having it's usual affect on the girls. Cordy is now the slave for real and Dawn the princess. A familiar affect in this story that doesn't get old.

I often find that most people want to fit in and act in away that coincides with the role they've been given to play...

Hey, that almost sounds as if I know what I'm talking about!

Last few chapters coming up.

Cheers,
D.

Interesting way of getting rid of the bones. Pity that Xander and Kirstie haven't died horribly, however...

Good chapter.

Now there's something I don't remember seeing...someone wanting Xander to die 'horribly, horribly!'

I'll keep it in mind just for you if I write another fic with Xander in it.

Cheers,
D.

Arrr... I'm getting flashbacks to Blackadder. I pity the Isle of Wight is not available, they'll just have to sail round and round Malta instead. Now if this was after Pirates of the Caribean, Dawn would know what she was getting into. I do wonder if her plan will work...

I was only sorry that she didn't have 'a woman's purse' with sixteen sailors tossing in it!

Plan? What plan? It just seemed like a good idea at the time!

Cheers,
D.

I'm thinking that the "victims" may not be the people that Kirsty had in mind.

You could well be right.

Cheers,
D.

Hope Kristie makes a mistake soon and Xan is freed from her spell.

Oh no, that would be too easy!

Cheers,
D.

the only problems I've had with your stories are that your characters keep saying "like" and "totally" way too much. Even characters that are not from modern California.

To be honest its only done for comic effect and as for Kirstie as she only had a couple of words to say in one episode we can't really claim to know how she talks.

Hope you soldier on with it.

Cheers,
D.
