Fred's POV:

I don't know what to do. I know that on the outside I must seem so sure of myself. Professor Siedel is a serial killer, so he should die. But I suppose he never directly killed anyone. Instead he sent us to places like Pylea that should have killed us.

I'm not sure why I came to see Wesley. Maybe because he knows so much about portals and the supernatural part of the things we deal with. Or maybe because he's always been the one to save me. He opened the portal that got me out of Pylea, he protected me from Charles `friends' at Caritas, and he saved me from the slugs from Quar-Toth. Plus, he just saved me from another portal.

He's been keeping track of me. He read and understood my article. He came to my speech by choice, which is more than Charles and Angel did. I should have suspected he would see the article; we read the same science journals. And I have to admit that a part of me wanted him to see me all intelligent, the way I was before Pylea, and Professor Siedel ruined that for me too.

Charles and Angel don't understand. They want me to be all innocent. `Sit back sweetie and let the men take care of it.' I'm the one who was wronged. I'm the one who should get to punish him. I'm not a child. I don't need cocoa and an `everything will be okay.' Charles doesn't understand vengeance, and I love that about him, but Wesley does understand, and I may love him more for that.

We were looking at spells. But I have a better idea. It will be justice. I'll open a portal and send Professor Siedel to another dimension. I won't kill him; I'll give him the same chance he gave me. After all, I survived.
