After Melanka takes down Buffy, Angel and Spike with ease, Illyria transforms into her true form and drags the Slayer-vampire’s demon forces through a portal created by Dawn and Willow. Undaunted, Melanka severs his pact with the major (literally) and bites Buffy in the neck – only to become overwhelmed by the Slayers’ ancestry inherent in her blood. Buffy stakes the vampire with her Scythe, and as Melanka crumbles to dust his uber-Slayer powers transfer to his sister Fray… Later, Dawn returns Fray and her cop sister, Erin, to the future, where they discover a change for good in the timeline. Back in the present, the Scoobie gang throw a party for Buffy and Faith, who have put their powers to good use by joining the San Francisco Police Academy. Reflecting on the joy of being surrounded by those she loves. Buffy looks forward to the promise of the future…
