AN: Alright everyone a new fic, this is a Buffy/Angel crossover. I hope you enjoy it even though it was written a long time ago and it is definitely not the greatest fic in the world!
Disclaimer: I don't own the characters.

Prologue

Sunnydale

"Nearly, nearly, free!" said Buffy to Riley. A demon called Grinshaw had captured Buffy and Riley. Riley managed to untie Buffy as they had both been tied up and at the mercy of the Grinshaw.

"LOOK OUT Riley," Buffy suddenly shouted to Riley "behind you." But it was too late the Grinshaw took hold of Riley and threw him against the wall. Then it decided to go after Riley even though Riley wasn't much of a threat to it because Riley couldn't move. The Grinshaw stabbed Riley near the heart just as Buffy got to them. Then the Grinshaw turned on Buffy. Buffy hit it, tripped it over then finally stabbed it and killed it with its own knife. Buffy moved to make sure Riley was ok.

"Buffy take me to Giles' place," said Riley,

"But you should get to the hospital," said Buffy.

"They wouldn't be able to do anything for me as I am so I want to see friends rather that hospital people. Now Buffy," said Riley with pleading eyes.

"Ok if that is what you want," said Buffy picking Riley up.

After one painful journey.

"Buffy what happened to you," said Willow concerned when Buffy came in carrying Riley "and what happened to Riley."

"We were being held by the Grinshaw, when Riley got free, he then quickly released me. The Grinshaw decided to go for Riley by throwing him against the wall and stabbing him, by the time I got to them Riley had been stabbed. I then killed the Grinshaw. Riley told me to bring him here because the hospital wouldn't be able to do anything for him," said Buffy bursting into tears.

"Well I think it is understandable that Riley should want to be here with friends but he should at least get a bit of medical attention," said Willow.

"He didn't want to go at all I tried to persuade him," said Buffy. Then they all stared at the dying Riley.

AN: well I'd love it if you reviewed this, that would be great. However, bear in mind that I was very young when I wrote this!
