Storyline: Set at the end of days when the LA crew need to release Angelus to be able to stop the beast. And Cordy has slept with Connor. That's all you need to know...for now.
The End is Coming
The Hyperion hotel was unusually quiet. Most of the LA crew were busy burying themselves in ancient books and journals trying to find the key to destroying the beast.
Wesley had discovered that Angelus had met with the beast in the 1700's, however Angel had no memory of the meeting.
"Ah there is a passage here that mentions the End of Days" Wesley said as he looked to Angel who had been brooding on the couch ever since Wesley had mentioned that they needed Angelus in this upcoming battle.
Angel looked to Wesley "What does it say?"
Wesley looked back to the book "It speaks of three warriors. One pure, another of the dark, and the third born from two demons"
"Two demons, Connor is a part of this?" Angel asked
Wesley nodded "So it would appear. And I'm guessing the warrior of the dark is you...Angelus more so"
"So who is the pure warrior?" Angel asked
"That I am not sure on. Perhaps Cordelia, she is a seer for the powers after all"
Angel nodded "Perhaps. Is there anything else"
Wesley shook his head "No. I'm afraid Angel that releasing Angelus may be our only option right now. And we don't have a lot of time left"
"I know"
"I'm sorry to push you on this Angel, but in case you haven't noticed the sun hasn't risen in days and it's raining fire outside" Wesley sounded frustrated as he stood up closing his book.
"I know!" Angel yelled, taking an un-needed breath to carm himself "But I'd like to make sure we've explored all avenues before calling up my ex lover and asking something of her I shouldn't"
Wesley nodded "I understand that Angel, but I'm sure Buffy would understand her part in this"
Angel laughed sarcastically "Being used for sex and having to face the person who caused her pain and 24 hour torment for months of her life"
"Buffy is much more mature and stronger now Angel, I'm sure she will be able to handle herself"
Angel stayed quiet a moment "fine"
Wesley nodded "I'll make the call" Wesley went towards the phone
"Don't...don't tell her why she's coming..." Angel said quietly
Wesley nodded again before making the call "Hello Willow...yes it's Wesley, how are you ? ... I've been better. Is Buffy there?..."

No more than 3 hours later Buffy and Willow arrived at the Hyperion.
"Wow it's a real death trap out there" Willow said as the slayer and she entered the hotel.
Wesley, Fred, Gunn, Cordelia and Connor were all seated in the lobby
"Buffy, Willow, you got here fast"
"Well you said it was urgent, and by the looks of it outside, I'd say it's pretty serious out there" Buffy said
Wesley gave them both a hug "It's good to see you both"
"You to Wes" Willow said with a smile
Wesley smiled "Let me introduce you two to everyone else. Cordelia you know"
"How can we forget queen C" Buffy said
Cordelia glared at the slayer "Buffy"
Wesley moved on "This is Fred, Gunn and Connor"
Buffy looked at the young boy and felt a familiarity to him. Shaking off her thoughts she searched the room for the man she had come all this way to see "Where's Angel?"
"Upstairs 5 doors down to your right" Wesley said "He's waiting for you"
"And the Buffy and Angel show begins" Cordelia said under her breath as the slayer made her way up the stairs.

Angel could feel her the minute she entered the building. And watched her shadow as she stood at his door for a good 3 minutes before knocking.
"Come in Buffy"
He was taken a back by her flawless beauty as she peaked through the door "You knew it was me?"
Angel smiled at her "I'd know you anywhere Buffy"
Buffy smiled back and sat down beside him on the bed "How've you been?"
"Better"
Buffy nodded "I've noticed. Things are looking pretty grim around these parts"
Angel nodded
Buffy turned serious "You should have called me earlier" she said softly
"Yeah, I know"
"But you didn't want to bring me into this and put me in danger?" she said with a smile
Angel laughed "That's about right"
"Same old Angel, you haven't changed a bit" she patted his back "So give me the low down"
He smiled at her loving to listen to her lingo "Well there's a giant demon out there called the Beast, who is intent on destroying the city and our only hope to destroying him is Angelus"
"Angelus? But the only way to get to Angelus is for you to lose your soul..." Buffy stood up from the bed "Wait, you brought me here to sleep with you?"
Angel looked at pleadingly "Buffy it's not like that, I mean it is...but...I didn't want you to think that that was the only reason for you to be here"
"Is it?"
Angel looked down "Yes...but"
"So you only ever come to see me or call for my help when I'm in danger or you need to get off" Buffy went to walk out of the room but Angel caught her arm and spun her to him.
"You know that's not it. And i'm sorry to have to bring you into this mess but you are the only one that can give me a moment of happiness"
"Why?" Buffy pried
"Because I am and forever will be in love with you. You're the love of my life, my soul mate..."
Angel could barely finish his sentence when he was attacked by Buffy's lips. Her arms wrapped around his neck as she wrapped her legs around his waist. Angel followed her lead wrapping his arms around her to support her in his arms as he stepped backwards towards the bed.
Pulling his shirt off and quickly unbuttoning his pants in the midst of devouring Buffy's mouth. Buffy's feat touched the ground as she rid herself of her pants and top before Angel threw her onto the bed, landing on top of her.
"God I love you" Buffy breathed as her eyes connected with Angel's
"I love you" Angel returned as they both rid themselves of their remaining clothing...
