Spike has become isolated in his own home. Torn on the inside as he matures and his feelings grow more tempest towards those around him, he begins to look for a way to remain in the safe company of those he grew up around and to try and cure his 'cursed' existance. Continuing to lie to those around him as he searches for a remedy to his rapidly growing body and his strong possesive urges, he grows desperate. Upon hearing of an unusual traveling magician passing through, he decides to plead to the stranger for help. He gets more than he bargained for.

Soon he will have to choose between a life led by his own happiness or the happiness of those closest to him.

My first attempt at slightly longer fic. I'm going with a whole shady 'bargain' but not really at the same time. Once again rip me to shreds since it's my first time not writing a one shot.

*Edit* Adding the alt universe because its in the same universe its just things are changed after an event. It's explained later.
