Yep, this is the sequel to Poster Girl and takes place during Season 2. I know I said I was posting it next year, but I couldn't quite wait. Some things from the show will be changed, but for the most part, it follows the series, pretty much like Poster Girl. I hope you all enjoy this sequel

"Ah, Los Angeles. Is there anything more beautiful?" asked the Host; "There's always something special about this place. It draws people from near and far. There's nothing that's boring here in L.A."

The front door of the gym opened, as Angel, Wesley and Cordelia entered, a look of determination upon the vampire's face, as he ignored the manager and stopped before a full-body mirror, a small smile on his face
"Huh, no reflection. Guess we'll have to fix that"
Angel put his foot through the mirror, completely shattering it and revealing the hidden room, as the Kwaini demons looked up from their sacrifice. The gym manager was horrified at what he saw, as Angel vamped out and entered the room, taking on the demons, as Cordelia and Wesley freed the humans. With the demons down and out, Angel resumed his human face, before leaving the gym with Cordelia and Wesley by his side without saying another word, all the while with the gym manager looking between them and the hidden room, where the demons were groaning in pain

"How's she doing?" Lilah Morgan asked
"Doing better than I expected," Lindsey replied, fiddling around with a record
"You know how outdated that is?"
"She likes Brahms"
Lindsey managed to open the record with one hand and placed it on the gramophone, before setting it to play. Brahms began to play, as Darla began to hum along to it, a contented smile on her face, her eyes closed as she sang
"So, Darla, how are you doing?" Lilah asked
"She's not four, Lilah. She's four hundred years old"
"Fine. Never mind. I'll be in my office"
"Like I'm gonna care about where you are"
Lilah shot him a glare and left the office, as Lindsey inched closer to Darla
"Oh good, she's gone," Darla said, "She was starting to bug me"
"Yeah, you're not alone there," Lindsey said, "So, how are you feeling?"
"Alive at least. I can't believe he did that to me"
"Angel?"
"Yes, Angel. That soul has made him pathetic over the years"
"Word tells me he now has a son"
Darla whirled around, a glint of anger in her eyes, but Lindsey didn't back down
"Angel has a son?"
"With a human. His seer"
"How far the mighty have fallen. All that power…wasted on humanity. God I could eat his eyeballs"
"Our plans for Angel are a bit long-term, but if you can't help yourself, by all means then, eat his eyeballs"
"You're fun for a human," Darla said with a small smile

"Connor, there's my little boy," Cordelia cried, "Come to mama"
"He was quite good, actually," Piper said, "Hardly cried"
"Yeah, he's good for that," Angel said, "Thanks for your time, Piper"
"Anytime. Later"
Piper left the apartment, as Angel closed the door behind her
"She's a lovely girl," he said
Piper Combs was the babysitter for Connor whenever the team had to go out on missions together. Cordelia had met her not long after Connor was born and the pair hit it off pretty quickly. Not long after that, Angel ended up saving her from a gang of vampires and ever since then, she had become an unofficial member of the team. She never complained about the time of day she had to sometimes baby-sit, including late at night or early in the morning, which gave Angel and Cordelia time to breathe
"Okay, Kwaini demons preparing humans for sacrifice," Cordelia said, "Scratch that one off the list"
She crossed the demons off the whiteboard and stood back to look at the others, while Wesley had his nose in a book and Angel was holding Connor, playing with a rattle
"We're gonna have to find a new place soon," Angel said, "There's not enough room here. It's all a bit…small"
"You want me to add that to the to do list?" Cordelia asked, "No, wait, done that"
"Seriously. Connor is a growing boy. He's gonna need his own room soon"
"I know, I know. It's a bit hard trying to find a new place right now"
"I'll look around later tonight, see what I can find," Angel offered
"That sounds like a…a…argh!"
"Wesley, vision!" Angel called
Wesley quickly rushed over, holding Cordelia steady as she had her vision. Connor tried to see what the fuss was all about, as the vision passed and Cordelia sat on her couch, as Wesley headed off to get her the headache tablets
"So, what did you see?" Angel asked, rocking Connor
"Big ugly demon chasing a pregnant woman," Cordelia replied, "I don't know where"
"What did the demon look like?" Wesley asked
"Big, ugly, demon with fangs and furry. Seemed really vicious"
Wesley frowned for a moment, before grabbing one of his demonology books and sitting beside Cordelia, flicking through it as she looked over his shoulder, before finding pointing the demon out
"Ah, a Prio Motu demon," Wesley said, "Yes, it is really vicious"
"Great, now we just gotta find these demon and saved the girl," Angel said
"I might know of a place where we can get information," Wesley said
"Cool, what is it?" Cordelia asked
††††††††††
"How come I live in L.A and never see this crazy-ass shit?" Gunn asked
"Oh the ass is crazier than you think," Cordelia said
Angel, Cordelia, Wesley, Connor and Gunn were all at Caritas, the karaoke bar where demons and human populated frequently. It was also a safe haven, as no violence could be permitted inside whatsoever. This is where Wesley had suggested they go for information. Angel had called Gunn and introduced him to the others. Gunn seemed to get along with Cordelia and Wesley and seemed thrilled with Connor
"What am I even doing in this place?" Angel asked
"To get information on the Prio Motu demon so you can kill it?" Cordelia said
"That there is the Host," Wesley said, pointing him out on stage, singing alongside a demon, "He reads peoples' souls, sets them on their paths. But he's not who we're here for. This is Merl"
A green-skinned demon with a bumpy head turned around. Gunn cocked an eyebrow
"Wesley, my man, you here for some info?" Merl asked, "I got it for you. You know how it works"
Wesley withdrew a sum of cash from his wallet and handed it to Merl
"Okay, this Prio Motu demon? He's a mean son of a bitch"
"Where can I find him?" Angel asked
††††††††††
Angel arrived at the location where Merl had directed him. The others remained at Caritas to get used to the place. Though Angel had a feeling he would never get used to the place. Too bright for him. A scream pulled him out and he gripped his sword, before heading into battle. He saw the pregnant woman running for her life, with the Prio Motu chasing after her. Angel collided with the demon, as it rolled to its feet and kicked Angel in the stomach, then struck him twice, making him lose his sword. Angel kicked the demon, before delivering a few punches, as the Prio Motu headbutted Angel, then picked him up and threw him against a steel post. Angel swiftly got to his feet and punched the demon a few times. It drew its sword and slashed, ripping open Angel's shirt, as he rolled under the blade and struck it on the spine with his elbow. With the demon stunned, Angel took the chance to snap its neck and drop the body, before turning to the woman. He didn't expect the reaction he got
"What have you done?" she cried in tears, falling to the demon's side, "You killed him. He was my protector and you killed him!"
"What?" was all Angel could manage
