The apocalypse with the Black Thorn was over and Spike and Angel were standing there covered in hell knows what type of entrails from different demons. Gunn was rushed to the ER by Illyria who then came back and finished off the battle using the remaining energy from her "time bomb" she therefore died in the process. Angel decided that he might start up Angel Investigations again; with someone he never expected…Spike. Yeah sure he annoyed the crap outta' him, but he had a soul and was therefore useful in helping the helpless or hopeless or… whatever AI used to say. Once Gunn was better he'd be part of the team as well. Still standing in the middle of the alleyway thinking about all this Angel's thoughts were interrupted by Spike.

"Angel?"

"Yeah?"

"What the bloody hell are we going to do now?"

Angel told Spike his plan about Angel Investigations and Gunn and helping the hopeless. Spike listened intently to Angel's idea and for once in over 150 years he decided that Angel had a good idea, and it made sense. After Angel was done explaining Spike replied,

"Alright!" This shocked Angel. Spike actually listened to what Angel had to say without interrupting with a smug comment AND he was agreeing with him, not to mention he was being polite about it!

"O…okay then…lets… go" Said Angel. Spike nodded and said,

"After you boss man." Angel nodded in the direction of the Hyperion and started walking towards it. Spike followed. Once they got there it was very dusty and dirty like the last time Angel had started a business there. Noticing the dust Spike commented,

"Bloody hell! We need some girlies in here to clean this place up! I wouldn't mind a French maid myself."

Angel just ignored his rude comment and went on looking through the desk draws where Cordelia used to sit. Angel looked in the top drawer and found a picture of Connor as a baby with Cordelia holding him and Angel was in the back looking down at Connor. Cordelia was beautiful with her golden brown hair and her hundred-watt smile. He loved her and she will always be in his heart, but he had to move on…for real this time! Not with some cheap blonde who gives it all up front and isn't even good enough in bed to make him perfectly happy! Not that he wanted Angelus roaming the streets of LA or anything, but he needed someone in his life to make him happy enough so he could at least get up every day…night…after all he is a vampire. His thoughts were interrupted by Spike shouting to someone,

"ER…GOOD EVENING THIS IS …SPIKE INCORPERATED WHERE WE HELP PEOPLE!"

" SPIKE!" Angel yelled.

He glanced at the two girls who were standing in the doorway. They were looking at the two vampires oddly. They both looked at least seventeen maybe a couple years older. One of them was a tall slim and slightly muscular built girl with coffee brown skin and straight shiny black hair that came down to her lower neck almost shoulders. She seemed very confident, but a bit shy. The other girl who was standing next to her had creamy white skin she was petite but very pretty. She had long wavy black hair that came down a little past her shoulders. She was about two inches shorter than the other girl.

"Um excuse me Mister…um…" The older girl started.

"Spike!" He finished.

"Spike sorry for bothering you, but we were looking for Angel Investigations…hmm we thought we had the right address… um does Angel by any chance maybe work for you?" She asked innocently.

"I'm Angel! Sorry about my obnoxious…co-worker he just loves to mess with people." Angel smiled and made a slight fake sounding chuckle. "This is Angel Investigations I'm Angel what can I do for you…I'm sorry about the place I didn't expect business so soon…"He explained sounding very professional, at least that year at Wolfram and Hart taught him something about business. Well more than he knew before anyway.

"Hi I'm Faye" She said then pointed to Destine, "and this is Destine." Destine waved and smiled.

"As I said before I'm Angel and this obnoxious…co-worker of mine is Spike as you already know based on his ridiculous entrance." Faye chuckled lightly at his comment and then smiled warmly. Angel was quite the hottie, but she knew he was going to be. After all, he was the famous Angelus "Demon With the Face of an Angel" He seemed sweet though, like someone who could make her happy… Destine shoved Faye causing her to stumble slightly and snapping back to reality Faye said rather loudly,

"D! What the hell!"

"Sorry, but you were doing it again…

"Oh sorry I yelled! I didn't mean to! You know I love you!"

"AWW I LUUURVE YOU TOO!"

"Get a bloody room already!" Spike said and rolled his eyes.

"Ok what the hell is going on here? Might I ask what you came here for?" Said Angel sternly. Taking effect onto his handsome features was his famous overhanging forehead.

"ECHEM…oh right sorry…um we came to help you fight the good fight!" Said Faye in a slightly perky voice that reminded Angel a little of Cordelia's happy shopping voice.

"Fight the good fight? HAHA, you're just a couple of bloody teenagers! I mean honestly what could you possibly do to help us 'fight the good fight!'" Spike said in his oh so clever smug voice. This made Faye very angry.
"LOOK BUDDY! YOU CAN'T JUST GO AROUND ACCUSING PEOPLE OF WHAT THEY CAN AND CAN'T DO! SO I SUGGEST YOU DON'T DO IT AGAIN UNLESS YOU WANT MY FIST TO COLLIDE WITH YOUR FACE!" Faye yelled in Spike's face making a tight fist and putting it to his throat. Spike wasn't a bit intimidated. Instead of making a frightened noise he laughed lightly. This pushed Faye over the edge.

"I warned you!" She yelled and punched Spike in the jaw sending him flying through the air and landing back on the ground on his back with a loud thud. He stood up. DAMN! He thought. She punches as harder than Illyria and buffy combined! Spike grunted in pain and got to his feet he was mad now! Before he knew it he was feeling stronger and in full game face. Faye smirked and said,

"Finally decided to let the demon out to play huh? Let's see what it can do!"

"YOU FILTHY HARLET! I'M GONNA BEAT YOU TO A BLOODY PULP!"

"AWWW did I make whittle Spikey mad awww I'm so sorry, but lemme' tell you, that punch I gave you before…I wasn't even using a fourth of my full strength that was me going easy!"

"You can't take me! Bloody hell you're a KID!" Faye was REALLY MAD now Destine could tell her arm and eyes were glowing a dark red like crimson. Faye started to smile and that's when she knew the blonde vampire had gone to far. Just as Faye was about to attack, Destine yelled,

"NOOO!" And ran to her grabbing her waist which caused them to fall to the ground with a very loud crash. "Faye don't do it your stronger than this! DON'T LET THE DEMON CONTROL YOU!" Destine cried. Tears were now pouring down her cheeks. "Don't let it! I won't let you go! Faye! PLEASE! COME BACK!" Destine hugged her as the tears continued to fall. Faye's eyes and arm returned back to the normal shade of brown and she hugged Destine back and said quietly as the tears formed in her eyes and ran down her cheeks as well.

"I'm sorry. D… I'm going …to cling to you." Destine nodded. They stayed like that for a long time and Angel and Spike just looked at each other and then back at the two girls and then to each other again. Finally Angel said to Spike quietly,

"We'll ask them about it later…I think we should leave them alone for now don't you?" Spike nodded in agreement. Angel and Spike walked out of the room.

CHAPTER TWO

The next morning Faye and Destine came down to the lobby to find Angel and Spike arguing.

"Look I told you once before and I'll tell you again they CAN'T WIN! The human race has evolved SPIKE! LET IT GO!"

"OH YOU'RE BLOODY STUPID! There's no way they could win!"

"Look I'm telling you SPIKE LISTEN TO ME! HEAR WHAT I'M SAYING!"

"I do hear what your saying and I'm tell-"

"NO YOU NEVER HEAR WHAT I SAY!"

"ECHEM!" Yelled Faye. They looked at her. "What's all the fuss about isn't it a little early to be up being vampires and all?"

"Nothing Spike was just leaving!"

"No I was not! Look Faye if astronauts and cavemen got into a fight…who would win?" Faye looked at them and raised her eyebrows with curiosity.

"And you've been fighting about this for five hours?"

"Well…yeah…" Said Angel a bit embarrassed. If he could blush he would've.

"Hey Angel?" Asked Destine in a shy tone.

"Yes?" He replied

"Who's Charles Gunn?" She asked. Angel's eye's widened after hearing his name.

"Why? Did you hear something about him? Is he okay?" Angel asked panic striking his features.

"Yes! Yes! HE'S FINE! In fact the hospital called here last night and said they'll be releasing him in a couple of days. They asked about his family and who could pick him up, he is in the rehabilitation center right now."

"SO…what'd you say?"

"I said I'd ask my boss and have you call them." She said and smiled warmly. Then asked, "so…um who is he?"

"Part of the team." Angel said and smiled at her.

"Well I'm sick of this yakking how about we go down to the local bar for a drink?"

"Spike it's ten o'clock in the morning." Destine commented.

"Your point?" Spike asked and raised an eyebrow in an o' so sexy type of way. Destine got all shy and Faye stood in and said,

"Spike her point is she doesn't want to go, and it's a little weird to be drinking at this time!"

"Hey you know your morning is my night luv!" He said.

"Why don't we go then?" Asked Faye. "You can show me the ropes of the town tell me all you know?"

"Sounds like a date" Said Spike smirking. He didn't know why, but he liked this girl's attitude and spunk. It kind of reminded him of Buffy in a way.

"Yeah right Faye dating a vampire! Ha! She hasn't done that in over a hundred years and he was evil!" Said Destine quickly covering her mouth realizing that she just reviled their secret.

"What was that?" Asked Angel suspiciously. Destine still had her hands over her mouth to keep herself from saying anything more. She muffled out something that sounded like,

"Grrnmfllhm." Faye sighed, and Said,

"We're Immortal. We should've told you right away I know, but it was just Vampires like yourselves hate Immortals. Come on William the Bloody you hated me when we were dating and you know it!" Angel just looked confused he was about to say something when Spike said,

"FARAY?" He said sounding surprised. Fayed nodded "Bloody hell you look different!"

" 'Bout time you figured it out William!" Spike just smirked.

"Your going by Faye now?" Faye just looked at him.
"NO you idiot Faray was a name I made up to seduce you into a one night stand I never knew it'd turn into more!" Angel interrupted

"HOLD ON! You two know each other…when? What? How?"

"Okay everyone better sit down it's a long story." Faye said. Spike, Faye, Destine, and Angel all got comfortable on the couches in the lobby.

"Okay so it starts like this…." Spike started.
