btvs au in which Buffy does not accept her fate to meet the Master and chooses to instead tie up the anointed one when he shows up, thinking that the Master will arrive for her to surprise. she's not going down without a fight. so she’s there, sitting on a park bench in her pretty dress with a tied up kid beside her, trap laid and ready to go, waiting for sunrise and the master to appear. but when he doesn’t, when the kid crumbles to ash and she realizes that nothing happened, she storms into Giles' office, alive and well, and comes to terms with the fact that the Prophecy didn't see her as a Slayer, it saw her as a pawn, which starts her distancing from the Council and their guidance much earlier.

it also, hilariously enough, keeps the Master as the easiest bait on the Hellmouth because vampires are constantly trying to curry favor by trying to set him free and now the Master is stuck in his damp little cave listening to the nightly staking of every sycophant in the area, complete with quippy one liners even he has to admit can be pretty funny.

of course this situation ends up getting wild when Spike arrives with Drusilla in tow to heal her and check out what the hell is going on with his great great grandsire. and he sees this little blonde girl absolutely whaling on like six vampires at once and making easy work of the lot. and Spike's eyes light up, because this is no newbie, this is a true Slayer. and he doesn't want to lay some easy trap, no no, he needs something special for her. he wants dance again.

so he plans to sneak into the caves to speak with that old bloodbag one night when Buffy isn't there (look even she can't guard there all night long) to get answers about both the Sunnydale Slayer and the ritual. but the Master tries to play a game with him, saying he'll only give information when Spike sets him free. and Spike doesn't love the idea of letting that stodgy old man out to lord over him and everyone else so he starts to plot...and anything could happen with the Master in the mix!
