Disclaimer: Come on, people, you know the drill.
OK, just so everything's clear: a few months have passed since "The Slayer's Daughter" ended. And in case you haven't read the first one, Cori's Angel and Buffy's daughter, and dating Spike. Dani's Faith daughter, dated Doyle (until he died, when she got the visions), but now she's with Angel, and went through the demonizing-thing. Oh, and Doppelganger Spike and Angel will be referred to as William and Angelus. All right, now on with the story.
Angel watched silently from the bridge as Dani approached his son. Holding a a grocery bag in one hand, she stopped in front of the teen and kneeled down. He looked up at her, surprise written on his face, especailly when she held out the bag. Angel's vampire hearing picked up their voices.
"You all right?" Dani asked Connor. He nodded, though he now looked suspiciously at the girl. She gave him a sly grin. "Come on, boy, talk to me."
"About what?" Connor asked.
"I dunno, 'bout anything." She sat down next to him. "There has to be something. Maybe about your dad or something."
"No," Connor stated without a thought.
"Fine, we'll talk about your sister," Dani looked at him when he turned to face her. "What you did to Angel, it hurt her."
"Because she cares for Angelus."
"No, because she cares about you, and you betrayed her," Dani clarified. "I mean, you basically took away her father, and kept a huge secret from her. Then you kinda did the same thing to Gunn and Fred. Minus the father part."
"Angelus deserved it," Connor said.
"And I agree with you," Dani nodded, "Angelus deserves something like that. But you did it to Angel, and he's not Angelus."
"What's the difference?"
"Angelus is pure evil. He's a soulless demon bent on human destruction. Then the gypsies gave him back his soul, so he was forced to remember everything he did. And he became Angel, the Champion of the people," Dani explained. Connor gave her a skeptical look as he dug into the bag and pulled out a bag of oreos. He gave her a small smile as he started to eat the cookies. Dani chuckled. "Thought you'd like those."
"Thanks," Connor actually sounded gratefully.
"So long as we don't share this with anyone, it's not a problem," Dani smiled. Connor nodded and drank from the bottle of water. "Somebody's hungry," she noted as he finished off a sandwich in nearly one bite. He shrugged sheepishly and handed back the now empty bag. She ruffled his hair as she stood up to leave.
"Wait," Connor stopped her. "Can you stay, just for a little while?" Dani sat back down and Connor wrapped himself back up in the blanket. Angel watched as they just stayed there, not even turning his head to acknowledge Lilah.
"Looks like your girlfriend doesn't listen," Lilah commented, standing next to Angel.
"What are you doing here, Lilah?"
"Just watching the human offspring of two vampires. It's part of my job, actually."
"Really?" Angel finally turned to face her. "Let me tell you something about your job, then." He moved so he was threateningly close to her, "I catch you within fifty feet of either of them and I promise it'll be the last thing you do." Lilah watched him stride away and wisely decided to walk away.
"Hey, boy," Dani hugged Angel as she walked into the hotel.
"Hey," he gave her a small smile. "Where have you been?"
"Don't play dumb, I know you saw me," Dani looked up as Gunn and Fred walked in.
"Saw you do what?" Fred asked.
"Nothing, just beat the crap out of a vamp," Dani lied easily.
"Oh," Fred looked, well, how someone who'd just heard that would look.
"You guys going somewhere?"
"Just the movies," Gunn answered.
"Sounds good. Which reminds me, Angel, I got these," Dani turned back to the vampire, holding up the three LOTR DVDs as the other couple left.
"I didn't know you liked that kind of thing," Angel looked at her. She shrugged.
"I like the fight scenes. Especailly when Legolas takes down that elephant-thingy. That, and Legolas and Aragorn are kinda hot."
"That makes me want to watch them," Angel said, slightly sarcastic. Dani smiled and sat down in his lap, wrapping an arm around his neck.
"You're a jealous one, aren't ya?" she said teasingly before kissing him. "That's ok, it's kinda hot when you are." Angel looked at her in surprise then chuckled.
"Where the bloody hell are we?" William asked, looking around.
"Welcome to Wolfram and Hart, boys," Lilah strode towards the two vampires pushing themselves off the floor. Angelus took one look at her, grinned, and lunged for her. One of the soldiers in the room shot him with a dart.
"Goddammit," Angelus pulled out the dark and glared at the soldier.
"Hey, I just want to talk," Lilah pulled an innocent look. "There's a reason I had you two brought here."
"So are you gonna tell us?" William asked. Lilah smirked as she sat down in her chair.
"I want you to casue a little mayhem," she answered cryptically. This caught the two's attention.
"On who?" Angelus asked.
"On Angel and his little team."
"Care to explain?"
"In this reality you got your soul back," she began. "And you," she turned to William, "are dating a Slayer. You both are, in fact."
"What?" both asked, now very angry.
"Yep. You're dating his daughter, and you, you're dating her best friend."
"What about Dru?" Will asked.
"And Darla?"
"Dru's in Europe, and Darla staked herself to give birth to your, and her, spawn," Lilah summarized.
"I have a son?" Angelus asked. "What the fuck?"
"That's what we said," Lilah nodded. "Anyway, he's about sixteen now, and completely hates you. Well, Angel. Not that I blame him or anything..."
"Any other little surprises?"
"Well..."
Cori shot up, wide awake. Spike was woken by her sudden movement. "What's the matter, Luv?" he sat up next to her.
"I'm not sure," she admitted, looking at him. "I just had a really, really bad feeling something bad's gonna happen."
"Bad dream," he shrugged. She bit her lip, though she looked a little comforted.
"You think?" she asked.
"What could go wrong?" he wrapped his arms around her.
"You really want me to answer that?" she asked, half-teasingly, kissing him. He chuckled and pulled her into another kiss.
"Need to know anything else?" Lilah asked William and Angelus.
"Yeah," Angelus shared an evil look with Spike before turning back to the brunette. "Where's this Hyperion?"
Hope y'all liked the first chappy. Please review. Please. Thanks.
