Summary: This was written when news first broke that James Marsters would be joining the cast of Buffy as a regular. There was all kinds of theories about how they'd accomplish this. Everyone wondered how it could believable. So, a challenge went out to write how Spike returned. And this little fic was born. This is how, in my head, Spike returned to Sunnydale for good.
