The Source of Balance
By Icebyrd67
This story is about a girl named Koren Natia and her tale. She appeared on this dimension one night, with no memories of who she was or where she was from. The only clue of her past was the locket she wore. It appeared that Wolfram and Hart and their league of fellow demons knew more about her than she and the crew of Angel Investigation did. Can Angel and his band of 'sidekicks' help her and find out who and what she is before it's too late? Will she be able to choose sides? Will she choose love or destiny?
DISCLAIMER: I don't own any of the characters, except for Koren Natia, and any character you've never heard of. I am also not associated with any of the actors or actresses, although I wished Vincent, the guy who plays Connor, lived in my closet so that I may have him near me at all times.but since I can't, I have to live with having his picture plastered about my room and things. And I'm hoping this plot is original, except for the part where she meets Connor, because clearly, I'm using the scene from the episode where Cordy returns to Angel and the gang of 'sidekicks', only instead of Cordy, its Koren with Connor.And now that I'm done ranting and everyone is probably afraid to read my story, I'll get to it. READ, HAVE FUN, and REVIEW! =)

Rating: R for language, violence and loving Summary: Koren's just arrived in Angel's care from another dimension with no memories. Wolfram & Hart have their goons after her and she completely confused as to who's on the good side and who's on the bad. Which side of the battle will she choose? Will she choose love or destiny?

Angel glanced up from his seat on the bed, cocking his head to one side, like he had heard something. He got up and put his coffee mug of blood down on the table.
"Where are you going?" Cordelia asked, looking up from her magazine.
"Outside. I think I heard something so I'm going to check it out. I'll be back in a bit. Its probably nothing." He said, giving her a soft kiss on the lips as he picked up a small wooden stake.

Angel patrolled the gardens surrounding the hotel, listening for every little noise. Suddenly he heard harsh whispers.
"I've found the key!" Someone or something hissed from around the corner of the building. Then a loud scream drowned out the rest. Angel ran to rescue the screamer and arrived just in time to see a vampire turn to dust and a flash of gray as someone disappeared into the trees.
"Oh goddess." The screamer, a young girl about the age of 17 or 18 sobbed as she rocked back and forth, hugging her knees to her chest. Angel moved forward and kneeled beside her, placing a hand on her arm. Her frightened eyes darted up and seeing him, she began to scoot away.
"It's okay. I'm here to help. I won't hurt you." Angel assured her, as if he was talking to a scared child. She slowly got up and threw herself into his arms, sobbing even harder. "It's okay. I'm here now. You're safe now."

"Are you okay?" Cordelia asked the girl as Fred helped her clean the scratches on her arms and legs.
"I think so. Who are you?" She inquired glancing at all the faces around her.
"Well, I'm Angel and this is Fred, Cordelia, Gunn, and well.he's Lorne." Each person waves or nodded as he presented them.
"Well, sugar nut, looks like you've got yourself into a good tangle with the brambles." Lorne said, getting up to get more bandages for Fred.
"Umm.that guy's a bit green and he has horns." She whispered, looking at the demon.
"Who? Lorne? He was born that way." Fred explained.
"Oh.why does this not frighten me?" She asked, looking at Angel.
"I'm not exactly sure. By the way, what's your name?" Gunn answered.
"Well.umm.I'm not exactly sure about that myself. I was hoping you knew." She responded, dropping her eyes back to the ground. Silence filled the room for a few moments as everyone tried to think of a response to the girl comment. She sighed and brought her hand up to wipe away the dripping tears.
"Well.why don't you look at you locket. That might tell you something." Cordy answered finally. The girl glanced down, surprised. She hadn't known she had a locket on.
"I didn't even notice that." She reached around her neck and undid the clasp. Examining the silver trinket, she ran her finger lightly over two words engraved on the front of the crescent moon locket. "Koren Natia." She whispered. "I'm Koren Natia." She opened the locket to reveal a small, symmetrically round stone, set in the silver. Flashes of pinks and purples swirled inside like gases of light. On the other side were the words, 'Goddess Bless'. "Who am I?"

"Poor thing has no clue who she is or where she's from." Fred whispered to Gunn that same night as they prepared from bed.
"I know.I think I would lose my mind if I didn't know who I was or where I was from." Charles Gunn answered, sliding into bed next to Fred. "Not to know who I knew or who I loved."
"You'll always love me, right? Even if you lose your memory?" Fred asked, laying her head onto his chest.
"Always." He replied giving her a kiss on the head. "Now tomorrow morning, bright and early, I suggest that we start combing the files for any missing girl files and maybe we'll find who she is."
"Yes.I'll do that tomorrow. And she should sing for Lorne. He should be able to see something about her, maybe see some clues. And we could have Cordy go ask around to see if anyone knows her. Or even take her shopping for some clothes that fits. And Angel can do research and find out what 'the key' is exactly."
"Sure, pumpkin. But lets get some sleep, okay? Before you launch off into an entire plan of action."

"They found the key? Are you sure?" Lilah asked one of the other lawyers.
"Yes. We're quite sure, only the problem is, Angel found her first." One of the 'Ninja lawyers' answered. "Ideas as to solve our problem?"
"I'm not entirely sure. Has she sung for Lorne?" Lilah asked, flipping the pages of her binder, looking for what she wanted.
"No. She has not."
"Well then get back to me when she has!" Lilah snapped.
