Soul Bond: Agony's claim
by: Medea
Buffy sighed as she slipped out of her patrol clothes into her pajamas. She turned of her light and fell into bed. She turned over. She looked at the picture of Riley that was prominent on her nightstand. She lay in bed looking at it for a while. Then ever so carefully she took off the back of the picture frame and there staring into her eyes was Angel, a picture of him. She had drawn it herself, it was better than nothing. She had spent many nights working on it. A few telltale tearstains marked the page. And like every night since Angel had left her she fell asleep with one question one her lips. "Why?" She woke up the next morning in a daze. She knew something was about to happen because her slayer sense was tingling. She got up and went to her closet to chose her outfit for the day. She felt adventurous so she chose a black leather sleeveless, backless top and black leather pants. She then put on her favorite jacket which also happened to be black leather (sensing a pattern here?).
She checked her clock and realized that it was way to early to be up. She looked over at Willow who was still snoozing in her tiny bed. It was dusk outside. She grabbed her weapons and went out in search for any stray vampires who might not have found shelter yet.
Buffy brushed vampire dust off her pants. She had managed to find two newborn vampires who had been cowering in a dark alley from the coming daylight. They would have been dead in two hours but Buffy had been glad she had let out her frustrations on those vampires. She whipped back her hair. Then she broke into a full run towards her dorm room. She was feeling really good for some reason and did not want it to go to waste. She practiced fighting and then called Riley so he could spar with her. "Woah!" said Riley after he fell on his butt for the twentieth time. "I think that's enough for today." "Awwwwww," Buffy said giving him her puppy face. "I was just getting warmed up." "Ok ok!" said Riley with a grin on his face. "What's up with you today?" "Ummm nothing," she replied with a mysterious smile. He grimaced as he stood up but managed to get over to her to give her a kiss. "Hmmm nice," she sighed, but a familiar voice inside her said, "nice but it's not Angel." "I … um.. I gotta go." She stammered. Then she was gone, leaving Riley with a bewildered expression on his face.
Buffy sighed and headed towards Giles' house. She needed to spend some time with her friends and she knew that they'd all be there. She breezed through Giles' door and came to a halting stop. Everyone was there Willow, Giles, and Xander, and even Anya, Spike, and Tara. Each of them had a grim look on their faces. Even Spike's countenance had lost it's cockiness. "What's up Spike?" she asked, "did you just find out that bleaching your hair is so last year?" She waited for his usual smarting repartee, but it didn't come. Giles cleared his throat. "Buffy, um I'm afraid I have some rather bad news. Last night Angel was attacked by a strong worlock and was, well fatally injured and we are not sure he may survive." Buffy let out a strangled cry and fell to her knees sobbing. There was nothing the Scooby gang could do but watch helplessly as the core of their group fell apart.
Well um that's the end of the first part. Like I said this is my second fic and first buffy fic so um feed back please!!!!!
