LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - Emma Caulfield knows she's leaving UPN's "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," but she's not exactly sure how she's going to go -- and she's afraid its going to be in a pine box.

Caulfield has played vengance demon turned tell-it-like-it-is human Anyanka/Anya since 1997, but recently chose to leave the series in order to pursue other opportunities. The actress tells Zap2it.com she asked show creator Joss Whedon to be kind, but knows that's highly unlikely.

"No one in Sunnydale ever stays happy very long, there's always great pathos and tragedy," Caulfield says. "I've asked Joss not to kill me, but who knows, he may."

Although it is still up in the air as to whether or not there will be an eighth season of "Buffy," Caulfield says, "I'm definitely Audi 5000."

Formerly a cast member on "Beverly Hills, 90210" and the soap "General Hospital," Caulfield can currently be seen in the horror movie "Darkness Falls," as the sister of a boy who is terrorized by a local tooth fairy who takes her victims when they lose their last baby tooth.

With all this talk about no one being sure if there will be an 8th season, I'm hoping Buffy will get an appropriate ending. I hope they don't anticipate having another season, then during hiatus deciding the show will be canceled. Buffy's been on for seven seasons, it deserves better.

I agree. I hope Joss decides to end it this year. Most of the actors are already wanting out so hopefully he will think that it's time to put Buffy to rest.

Yeah, I hope it gets a good wrap up episode. I don't want it to be like a plain episode and then like 5 minutes before the show ends, you have a wrap up to tie up all the loose ends. All you FOL fans oughta know what I mean.

Ya we know. FOL messed up big time imo. They should have brought Mrs. G back, they should have had the ending focused on all characters not just Blair imo.

This is jmo, I have no idea what they were thinking with the writing of that last episode of FOL. To me it looked like the next season would've focused on Blair and Eastland. Then someone came in and told the cast and crew that the show is over and it looks like they kept the main parts of the episode, took out the unimportant parts about Blair and Eastland and then threw in the additional info about Jo, Nat, and Tootie so it would look like they tied everything up. It was tied up pretty sloppy if you ask me.
