Chapter 1 Darla and Angel

As the little boy called the Anointed one leads what seemed to be a frail vampire out of the sewer works an unexpected guest watches from the roof top of a club called the Bronze where the Master could feed well. The guest was about to attack when his entourage follows; a long brunette in a black with red shimmer Victorian dress clung to an arm of a platinum blond skinny man all in black apart from a red shirt peeking form underneath a long black leather duster, 'Dru and Spike came for the harvest' the guest thought from his safe crows next; next came a man in a blue shirt a black trousers clinging protectively to a skinny blond in jeans and a pink cardigan, 'where's there is Elizabeth there's James' the guest smirked as saw his sire in the arms of his vampiric child. Angel growled with out noticing but attracting the attention of a group of spectator vampires. 'Damn cover blown' was his last thought as he plunged into the alley.

"Hey Darla, why are you with Penn he is just a child" Angel smirked as Penn his former apprentice snarled showing his lengthened incisors.

"that's not nice" Said a large voice form behind as the voices hand grabbed Angel by the scruff of neck.

"Well Luke, Neither is this" Angel said shifting into his more scarier face as he elbowed his attacker in the throat, only because this particular vampire was to physically big, as the bigger vampire doubled over in pain Angel took the opportunity to volley him on the turn in the chest crushing Luke's ribs as he crashed through the heavy metal doors painted bronze of the club. Penn burst past Spike and Dru as James and Elizabeth shielded the master knowing he needs to feed before he fights. Angel was ready for Penn matching his blows with a block or a dodge and countering with kicks combos and punches which are totally putting the hurt on the evil vampire, what he was not ready for was Dru's child Spike jumping in to help Penn, but neither are able to stand to Angel as he batted away uppercuts, roundhouses and head butts and finally Penn fell to the floor and Angel grabbed Spike by his coat and threw him over to the rubbish pile where The Master was cowering, He then turned to Penn and slammed his face into the wall making the wall crack, then Luke came back and charged Angel as he drew his stake Luke smiled as he grabbed Angels hand bending it on the verge of breaking, just then Darla vamped out cackling and whispered in Angel's ear.

"Penn is a better lover than you were my child" but with that Angel's anger boiled over to the point where he turned his arm dislocating it to let Luke loosen his grip and as Luke did Angel rammed the stake in Darla's heart dusting her.

"NNOOO" was all Angel heard as he shoved Luke up the wall cracking Penn's skull as Luke landed on him.

"Who's next?" Angel winced as he popped his shoulder back in.

"Me" James snarled as he leapt forward with Elizabeth just behind him. Angel ducked the blow from James and landed him with a back hander knocking in him unconscious as Liz gasped Angel gave her a back hander which dealt with her just as easily as James.

"Come on Dru time to join 'Grand mummy'" Angel said mockingly. As he started to advance towards Drusilla the group of vampires who were watching the masters arrival plucked up enough courage to defend the Master there was a blonde female vampire in a Sunnydale high cheerleader uniform next to a big vampire in a white t-shirt and denim trousers, the girl went for Angel first scratching Angels face but he hit hard so she stepped back allowing the big vampire to grab on to Angel. As they tussled three more vampires stepped up, a male one which is reasonably built with dark curtains, the next was thinner and male but also had dark curtains and the last one was a female with red hair all three clad in leather.

"Joy" The big Vamp cried as the stake landed in his heart

"Mort" Cried Joy as she and the red head charged into combat against the vampire with a soul. The red head tried a round house kick but Angel caught it throwing her into the more built vampire, as the thin one came to help Joy but is was to late as Joy crumbled in to dust.

"Jesse, don't, willow stop him" Said the vampire which caught the red head, as Willow turned to yell at Jesse, Angel plunged the stake in him.

" Xander we'll make this puppy pay" she snarled shifting faces same time as Xander. But they were to late Angel turned and threw his stake at Dru but Spike jumped in the way taking the stake in his right shoulder.

"Little William no" Dru cried as spike fell to the floor in pain.

"Now Pet please call me Spike in front of guests" he said as Dru knelt over him nursing his gaping wound.

"Angelus catch" The master said as he threw the anointed one over everyone on to Angel.

"what, hiding behind kids again" he asked as he rolled through to land on top of the child, with that the anointed one shifted into his face punching Angel then thrusting him up the wall, Xander took this opportunity to lay into him but Angel was determined to kill the master but was stopped from rising as Spike helped the novice vampires then to add insult to injury Penn got back up and joined in allowing Luke to regain consciousness and lift Angel up high and then rammed his knee into Angel's back – not paralysing him just hurt him like hell – as Luke grabbed the stake out of Spike, who yelled like a girl, the Master coughed impatiently, then they led the way into the bronze and screams could be heard for miles.
