In the cold streets of Los Angelus a woman's scream pierced the cold night. The vampire standing in a dark ally by himself smiled and said quietly, "show time".
By the sound of the scream the woman was roughly three blocks away.
"Please! Let me go, I won't tell anyone what you are," sobbed the woman. She looked to be about twenty four, she had short black hair and a terrified look in her brown eyes.
"Oh baby, it don't work like that," cooed the vampire that has grabbed her as she was walking home, he was dressed like a biker from the sixties. "You see, I could let you go..... but I am so damn hungry."
He yanked her head to the side to get better access to her neck, then sniffed the air. He growled and spun around angrily. "Angelus," he spat.
"I go by Angel these days," said Angel as he stepped into the glow of the street light.
"Help me," shrieked the woman who was still being held by biker vamp.
"Shut up!" He roared and slapped her across her face.
Angel sprang into action. He grabbed biker and punched him hard across the face then kicked him in the stomach. Angel flung him into the brick wall and before biker had a chance to defend himself, Angel shoved a stake through his dead heart.
Angel smiled to himself, one less vampire on the streets of L.A was always a good thing. He looked at the woman he had saved who was now curled up on the ground crying, and helped her up.
"You'll be okay," he told her. "Just try to be at home and stay there when the sun has set, it's not safe out here."
"Thank you so much, you saved my life."
"It's my job," he told her softly. Taking his phone out of his pocket Angel opened it and hit speed dial three.
"Gunn," he said into it. "Could you do me a favour........ thanks......... corner of thirty first."
After hanging up Angel looked at the woman again. "I have a friend coming to take you home, his name is Gunn and he will be here in a minute. I would do it myself but I have something to take care of." Angel lied, he really had to get back to Wolfram and Hart before the sun would rise, which wasn't far off.
"Thank you," she babbled, still getting her head around the fact that she had just gotten attacked by a vampire.
Hearing Gunn's truck in the background Angel nodded at the woman, Gunn would make sure she would get home safely.
"Angel!" Harmony called out to her boss back at Wolfram and Hart. "I have a call for you from-"
"-That's great," Angel brushed her off, not wanting to deal with any 'clients' or Harmony's too happy attitude at the moment.
Shutting the door of his office, he took of his leather jacket and sighed. It had been a long night.
"Bout time you got in," said a platinum haired vampire sitting in Angel's chair, with a cigarette dangling lazily in his left hand.
"Get out of my chair Spike," Angel sighed, willing himself not to loose his temper.
"Why so testy mate? Run out of hair jell? Don't feel bad, you have plenty of forehead left."
Angel growled, did Spike want to get staked or something.
"You will never guess what I found on you desk," Spike said with a grin. "A little owl. Looked tasty, would have eaten it if the bugger didn't squawk so loud Fred came in to investigate and saved the stupid thing."
"Why was there an owl on my desk?" Angel was confused, how would it have even gotten in here.
"No, the important question here peaches is; why would Harry Potter, the kid who freaking didn't get murdered by Voldemort, be writing to you?"
Angel's mouth hung open in shock. That was a good question, why would Harry Potter of all people write to him?
"Where is the letter," Angel's curiosity was peaked, what was in that letter?
Spike stood up and handed Angel a piece of parchment.
"It's a good read," he commented. Before he left Spike said to Angel; "Count me in."
Angel looked at the door Spike left out with a puzzled look on his face, dismissing it Angel opened the letter and was surprised to see what was inside.
