A Chailin Mo Chroi ( My Darling Girl )

Pairing: Angel/Buffy, Cordy/Doyle, Willow/Wesley, Gunn/Faith, Erin/Connor, Giles/Joyce, sorry Dawn doesn't exist in this, also Connor is sixteen in this. Okay, the crushes are Robin starts to like Buffy, but she isn't really sure. Lindsay, that bad boy starts to like Faith, and Faith is tempted (even though she didn't go bad she still likes it in her men. There is also Spike/Dru in this story, but with a twist. Spike AND Dru were captured by the initiative, and somehow the chip righted her mind so she isn't insane anymore. Also ( for no apparent reason except I wanted to have Dru and Spike good, and also I since I don't think Buffy would approve of Spike and Dru feeding,) Spike and Dru drink blood bags that they steal from the hospital, not very good, but better than hurting innocent people.

Summery: AU. A few months after Buffy season 3. Angel has moved to L.A. He lives in the Hyperion and Doyle are a couple and they live together in her ghost infested apartment. They both work at Angel investigations. During one of his patrols Angel follows the demon he was tracking to a demon karaoke bar (Caritas) that is owned by the demon Lorne, aka,The Host. He also becomes a partial member to Angel's gang of friends. Almost like how he met Lorne, Angel meets Gunn because they end up tracking the same demon. Gunn lives at the Hyperion along with his brother Robin.(Robin isn't the son of the last slayer.) Also Connor, Doyle's cousin lives at the Hyperion and patrols.

Okay, on to the scoobies. Instead of living at the UCS dorms, Faith ( who never went bad or made any problems with B and A) Willow, and Buffy all get an apartment. They pay rent by Buffy and Faith working at the bar below the apartment, and Willow working at the Expresso Pump. Joyce and Giles have found that that night they spent as teenagers wasn't enough, so they started a relationship and now have been happily married for three months, much to Buffy's joy or extreme dislike she hasn't found out yet.Xander unfortunately still lives in his parents basement, and still crushing on the slayer, he just doesn't know which one. (No he and Anya aren't together she moved away or something, use your imagination.) Giles has a job at the college Library, which has been very convenient for when he needs to get a hold of his two slayers. Xander works with Willow at the coffee shop, they usually have the same shifts, much like Faith and Buffy. Alright, the plot of the story is that whistler basically dropped Buffy and Angels daughter on Buffy's door step. Erin, Buffy's daughter is from a different dimension where Buffy got pregnant on her seventeenth birthday, and Angel didn't lose his soul but had angelus integrated into him. So in Erin's dimension her dad is a mix of Angelus and Angel. ( Confused yet? LOL) Anyway after everyone gets killed in another apocalypse, the PTB save Erin and bring her to this dimension thinking that she would be a terrific resource to Buffy and Angel. The problem is that since Erin is only fourteen she needs to be raised in a home, not shipped back and forth between warriors. So Erin is currently living with Buffy at her apartment ( they have become really close, and Buffy is starting to feel protective and a bit motherly to Erin.)Everything is fine until Whistler comes with some news….

(I just wanted to add, Erin drinks blood and eats food) ( I also notice how weird you may think it seems that I had Buffy be only 19 when she becomes a mom to Erin but I wanted it that way to show just how mature Buffy was even before Erin.)

Disclaimer: I don't own anything except for Erin, the story, and a few other characters. Though if Joss wants to sell Angel I can't promise anything. Rated R for language.

Ch. 1 Home

I spent 20 years trying to get out of this place

I was looking for something I couldn't replace

Buffy Summers stood in the middle of her three bedroom apartment, hands on her hips, with a determined expression on her face.

I was running away from the only thing I've ever known

" No," the force of her words sharp enough to cut steel.

" Come on kid, don't shoot the messenger, I'm just a tellin' ya what the powers are sayin'." Whistler was coming real close to begging the Slayer to listen.

" Listen shorty, we can't just up and leave," Faith said, leaning against the black leather couch she insisted they needed no matter how much it cost.

" Yeah," Willow said, backing Faith up as she sat on the couch leaning over the back to face Whistler. "We have school, and jobs and friends and…school." She finished, whimpering slightly at the thought of missing more class than she was now every time they needed to research a demon.

And like a blind dog without a bone

I was a gypsy lost in the twilight zone

I hijacked a rainbow and crashed into a pot of gold

Whistler laughed nervously, wondering what the powers were thinking when they asked him, to tell two slayers and a powerful witch to pack up their bags.

Before Whistler could start another round of "Don't shoot the messenger," Buffy decided to interfere.

I've been there, done that, I ain't lookin' back

The seeds that I've sown, saving dimes, spending too much time on the telephone

Who says you can't go home

"So the PTB, want us to pack up our lives, and move to L.A., so that I can raise my and Angel's daughter from another dimension, in this dimension, with Angel, in hope of averting an apocalypse." She stated looking directly into his eyes, with one of her delicate eyebrows raised.

Who says you can't go home,

There's only one place that call me one of their own

Just a hometown boy, born a rolling stone

Who says you can't go home

"Um…yeah," replied Whistler.

Faith and Willow were quiet, knowing that this was important and hurtful to Buffy. How can she move in with her ex, who said he didn't want to spend his life with her, and attempt to raise a child together that they didn't even create, but is of their blood?

Buffy was silent for a long moment.

"Does he know?" she asked.

Whistler knowing who "He," was, was reluctant to reply. When he finally did, it wasn't what she wanted to hear.

"No."

Who says you can't go back

Been all around the world and that's a matter of fact

There's only one place left I want to go

Who says you can't go home

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright.

End Ch.1. (The song featured in this chap. Is "Who says you can't go home," by Bon Jovi)

Please review, I'm a first time writer. I have about 8 chapters already for this story. Thanx!
