This is set in early season 6 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and season 3 of Angel. Before Darla arrives and after they find out Buffy is alive. Also before Once More, With Feeling. So I guess episode 5 or 6? This reads like a transcript, if every one hates it I will totally change it into regular text.

I'm not really an ANGEL fan so if I get facts wrong feel free to ridicule me.

It starts out kind of bla but the pace soon changes so bare with me.

If you hate it or you love it let me know. If you don't have an opinion, then tell me so.


Oh and I don't own a thing, not a single character, except for Buffy herself, totally my idea, and vampires in general, I invented them also, and the concept of magic, and also Los Angeles. Total figment of my imagination.


Angel, Wesley, Cordelia and Gunn enter the Hotel looking pleased with themselves, smiling and laughing.

Cordelia: So I was thinking Germany or maybe somewhere colder like Sweden.

Gunn: Damn, not for me. Now Italy maybe, if it has to be Europe.

Angel: Guys, nobody is going anywhere.

Wesley: Yes all because a seer said we wont be needed for a while it doesn't mean we suddenly start having fun.

Angel: Exactly; wait it's not th...

Wesley: Angels completely right. Tonight was a one time thing.

Angel: I didn't say...

Wesley: We should resume business as usual, despite how slow things might be

Gunn: I'll tell you what. You go do that, and I'll call you when I'm sick of having fun. Later

Gunn walks past Cordelia and out the door. The others watch him go

Beat

Wesley:Totally irrational

Cordelia: I don't know. Why can't we spend sometime doing things that don't leave every one covered in horrible slime and bruises. I mean we all need to get out there, but especially you two. (motions at Wesley and Angel)

Angel points at him self in mock surprise (me?)

Cordelia: Yeah you. All because you got the major brooding thing going on doesn't mean you can't get a hobby.

Angel (smiles and shakes his head while picking up a newspaper): I've got a hobby

Wesley:Yes. lets not get slack. It's easy to loose focus or get lulled into a false sense...

::knock knock:: Wesley is interrupted by a knock on the door

Wesley(walking to answer the door):...of security.

Wesley opens the door to reveal a lone figure with blonde hair. It's Buffy.

Buffy(glum and surprised): Wesley. It's good to see you. Here. Hi

Wesley: Yes, it's been a while.

Wesley gestures for her to come in.

Buffy looks weary: Well if it's not a good time. I mean, I could come back in the morning.

Angel: No of course not. Come in

Angel puts the newspaper down and walks towards Buffy as she enters. Wesley goes and sits next to Cordelia while Angel and Buffy embrace.

Cordelia(whispering): So who do you think died?

Wesley(whispering): That's not something to joke about.

Cordelia(whispering): Who's joking.

Angel has Buffy in a loose hug

Angel: Is everything okay?

Buffy(pulls away slightly): Yeah, no everyone's fine. I'm okay, I just...

Cordelia(louder): Wanted to get the hell out of Sunnydale. On account of thats where you were rotting in the ground for three months.

Buffy pulls away from Angel completely and walks towards Cordelia and Wesley

Buffy: How I've missed you Cordelia.

Cordelia: I'm just saying. It's weird. You don't like, cough up worms or anything do you?

Buffy(a little forceful): No, I'm not a zombie. (pauses)OR a ghost. Or (struggles to find a word) anything.

Cordelia: Okay okay. Touchy much.

Beat

Buffy: So. What's up with you two crazy kids (smiles at Wesley and Cordelia) You guys...?

Cordelia: What?

Buffy: You were totally hot for each other. You still...?

Cordelia: What! No.

Wesley: Defiantly not.

Cordelia: No way. Not in a million years.

Wesley (quietly to Cordelia): A million years. Did you have to go that far?

Cordelia (awkwardly): Wel...

Angel (cutting her off): Ha. I forgot all about that.

Buffy: You should have heard what they were thinking.

Wesley: ::cough::cough:: So your in L.A.

Buffy: Yeah. I find it oddly familiar. Maybe because I spent sixteen years of my life here. Or it could be the shoes.

Cordelia: I forget your from here. It's kind of stupid. Angel moving here to avoid you I mean.

Angel: I wasn't just that.

Buffy: Yeah, a lot of it was probably the name. Los Angelus.

Cordelia: Not that your overly pretentious.

Buffy: No, just pretentious enough

Angel looks slightly taken aback by the turn in conversation

Cut to
Just outside the window of the hotel. Voices and laughter can be heard inside.

Angel (voice):Maybe it was a little artistic.

Buffy(voice): It was porn.

EARLIER THAT MORNING
Cut to
The Magic Box, just outside the window. Threw the glass and inside Giles is reading with a cup of tea. Anya and Xander are talking behind the counter while looking at bridal magazines. Willow and Tara are discussing something while looking in a magic book. There is an elegant locket between them. Willow suddenly glances up. A bell chimes. Enter Buffy and Dawn half way threw a conversation.

Dawn: It's sooo stupid. I just wont do it.

Buffy: Dawn, theres nothing to worry about. You'll be fine.

Dawn: I just don't want to, theres no point.

Xander: Still freaking over that speach?

Dawn: No, I'm not freaking because I'm not doing it.

Buffy: Come on Dawn, you've just got to face your fear.

Willow: I'm glad you said that because we think we've found exactly what you need Dawny.

Tara holds up the locket.

Buffy: What!? Jewelry? Yeah that'll help.

Anya: Is that what I think it is.

Tara: Durzitha's Locket.

Willow: We just found it,mixed in with some charms, it just popped up like magic. It's perfect.

Xander: Dawn doesn't need some magic necklace, you can do it on your own, right Dawn?(pauses) Dawn?

Dawn: So what does this thing do?

Tara: Don't worry it's perfectly safe.

Buffy (to Giles): Can you please do something about this.

Giles(gets up): No, I think you can handle this one.

Giles leaves through the front door. The others watch him go. Buffy looks quite taken aback.

Xander: So he's out. Go on Will, what's this thing do?

Willow:It's really simple. It just presents a situation that will make the wearer, in this case Dawn, to make her get over the fear that currently plagues her, so public speaking. It's all Dawn. Theres not even real magic magic its like a guide.

Buffy:Look I'm not saying it wouldn't work. But there are times for magic, even if it's not magic magic, and this is just not one of those times. We need to establish some boundaries here. I'm sorry but I just can't allow this one. It's completely unnecessary.

Cut to
Dawn's face. Her eyes are closed, shes calm and focused.

Willow(voice): Picture it, feel it. Your there on stage. There must be a very clear image. The image is clear?(Dawn nods) Good, make it clearer. (Willow speaks several sentences in Gaelic).

Beat

Willow steps away from Dawn, the book from before open in her hand. Dawn is sitting in a chair in the centre of the floor. Everyone is still here looking expectingly.

Xander: Did it work?

Willow: I guess, but normally something happens. (To Dawn) Do you feel different?

Dawn: Umm I don't know. Maybe. Not really.

Buffy gets up and walks over to Dawn looking for anything different.

Anya: Well last time something definitely happened.

Buffy: Well maybe it just wasn't supposed to work. It's a sign

Willow(ignoring Buffy): What happened last time.

Buffy reaches towards the locket.

Anya: There was this huge flash of---

All at once Buffy touches the locket. A bright flash of light fills the entire room, emulating from the locket. Everything is blinding white. Buffy is throne onto her back. The light vanishes. She lies there unconscious.

Cut to
The Magic Box ceiling, Xander, Willow, Tara and Dawn's faces fill the shot from different angles.

Xander: Buffy. Buffy!

Buffy blinks

Dawn: Buffy?

Buffy gets up slowly. She looks around at everyone curiously.

Willow: Buffy, are you okay?

Buffy(gets an odd smile on her face). Never better.

Buffy gives Willow a massive upper cut to the face.
Fade to Black

Back at the Hotel, it's morning, Buffy is alone having just made breakfast. Gunn enters

Gunn: Ah? Hello?

Buffy: Gunn right.

Gunn: Yeah

Buffy puts a plate of food infront of him: Cool name by the way. Breakfast?

Gunn: Thanks!(starts to eat crapes)So. Who are you?

Buffy pauses then smiles: I'm Buffy

Gunn stops eating for a moment and widens his eyes slightly: The Buffy?

Buffy: Well I've never met another one so I think we can safely assume yes. Why? What have you heard?

Gunn: Just that you and Angel had this epic relationship and you just came back from the dead. Oh and you kill vamps.

Buffy: Yep, that pretty much sums me up.

Gunn: He really bite you?

Buffy (nods): And I've got the scar to prove it.

Cut to
Angel walking up to them. Buffy's back is turned and Gunn is leaning in closely.

Angel: Gunn, what are you doing?

Gunn (looks up): Admiring your handy work. Damn this is nasty.

Buffy (turns around): Morning.

Angel: Good morning. So you two met.

Buffy: Know each others names and everything.

Angel: Well thats what matters.

Buffy (a sudden look of hesitation):Umm, I have to go... someplace. Over there. Excuse me.

Buffy exits into the back of the hotel

Angel looks concered

Gunn (continues eating): Mmm, your girl can cook!

Angel: I wouldn't know.

The silence is broken by a phone call. Angel picks it up.

Angel: Hello...hey where are you?...so long... yeah thats true...well say hi to them for me...bye.

Angel (hangs up): That was Fred, she's staying with her parents for a while now, she wont be back today.

Gunn: So she's the one that sent you to hell. Have to say, she don't look that fierce.

The door opens and man wearing a nicely cut suit walks in. He glances around then smiles to himself.

Angel: Can we help you?

Durzitha: No, I guess you can't.

He turns to leave and Buffy is standing in the doorway

Durzitha: Or maybe you can (he clicks his fingers and Gunn and Angel freeze positions)

Buffy: How'd you make it this far. I thought you were bound. Like a dog, on a leash.

Durzitha lifts the locket from his jacket pocket.

Buffy: Oh. Well aren't we clever.

Durzitha: You called me Buffy. I'm not going anywhere.

Buffy: For the last time it was an accident.

Durzitha: There are no accidents, not this, and not your taxi driver getting lost a breaking down a block away. Just like it's not an accident I finally found you here. It was meant to be.

Buffy: You are so lucky I don't just kill you.

Durzitha: No your lucky you don't just kill me. If you didn't need me, I wouldn't be here. Your afraid, I can feel it. You need help.

Buffy:This is your idea of help!Your sick! SCREW YOU DURZITHA!! I'm not loosing control again. I can't.

Durzitha: You wont have a choice.

Buffy: Then you wont be here to see it.

Buffy lunges at Durzitha. He clicks his fingers and Buffy freezes. He puts his hand on her forehead. It glows white. He pulls away and walks to the door. He turns to face every one and clicks his fingers, they all unfreeze. Buffy finds herself grasping thin air

Durzitha (to Angel): Thank you, you've been most helpful.(He leaves)

Gunn: How did you?

Angel: Buffy, who was that?

Buffy: Just a friend. See you two later. (to Angel) don't let the bed bugs bite.

Buffy leaves.

Gunn: It's not just me? Theres...

Angel: Theres definitively something going on.

Cut to
Wolfram and Hart, Gavin's office. He enters. Buffy is sitting on his desk, now wearing a corset, tight jeans , a long jacket and more eye liner.

Gavin(a little uncertain): Buffy I assume. How did you get in here.

Buffy(walking over to him):Maybe you should focus less on the How and more on the Why. You have something I want. Either you can give it to me (vamps out) or I'll just take it.

Gavin quickly gets a short plastic bottle from his pocket and squirts the contents down Buffy's front. The bottle is marked "Holy Water".

Buffy smiles and unvamps while further approaching Gavin as he backs into the door.

Buffy(almost up against him): Well if you wanted to get me wet, all you had to do was ask.

Gavin looks confused and freaked.

Buffy: Holy water only works on vampires silly. (licks his neck then whispers into his ear) and I'm so much more then that.
