Surrounded Chapter 4
"Angel? What are you doing here?" shrieked an over enthusiastic Willow!
"Woah. Slow down there Will it's good to see you too! It's been too long!" Angel replied. "You too Xander!"
"Yeah man. When did you get here?" Xander said trying not to sound too depressed.
"Funny story actually," Buffy began "He actually saved me from a crowd of vampires that were surrounding me."
"What? Are you okay?" Willow said sounding worried "because I actually know a healing spell if it makes you feel any better!"
"Willow I'm fine, don't worry about me!" Buffy continued "Giles. How's Dawn I haven't seen her since this morning."
"Not to worry Buffy she's sound asleep!" Giles said in his very British parenting voice.
Angel's POV
The night had gone so fast. Everyone together again reminiscing about the past all we needed now was Wesley and Cordelia, but they were too busy conducting research on a demon that we had encountered on a case the other day. It seems just like yesterday when we all used to work together to battle the upcoming evils that never failed to disrupt our lives. Somehow whenever there were signs of upcoming evil thing would always start to go wrong I could only list all of things that could've gone wrong but that was all in the past now. Right now it felt so good just to be able to sit next to Buffy after so long.
The sun was due to come up in a few hours Buffy was insisting that I stay here at her house for the next couple of days. It was exactly like the time I saved her from the three and she had insisted I stay at her house while I recovered from my injuries. It sounds strange but I feel like that was an important milestone in our relationship. I guess being with her just brought back all these memories...
The next morning everyone carried out their morning rituals the only difference was that I tried to keep out of everyone's way. It was only then had I realised how different things were from when I used to reside in Sunnydale before moving to LA to seek redemption.
It was around mid day when Giles found out what was happening. "This has been prophesised. As we already knew there is a battle heading our way, I have been researching the origin of our fanged friends which you and Angel encountered last night. It turns out that the vampires you slayed have all recently come to Sunnydale for a pre battle picnic. According to legend all of the mystical convergence of negative energy builds up in the Hellmouth, which fortunately for us lies in Sunnydale, and then every 3000 years the hellmouth is opened to wreak terror and wipe out the human race as we know it to exist. However I would be able to tell you more about it but the only documentation of the last time this happed has been lost, misplaced or destroyed with age as time went on."
A/N: I hoped you liked this chapter, even if it is a bit short (sorry about that). If anyone has any suggestions for possible storylines please let me know.
