The five were now all back in the dinning room. Angel, Buffy, and Giles on the opposite side of Doyle and the young girl.
"Why did you call for a meeting?" Giles broke the silence.
"Well--" Kathy began to say.
"Why was Doyle confused when I called you Kathy?" Buffy interrupted.
"Buffy, I don't think we have time to deal with that right now." Giles replied.
"Is your name Kathy or not?" Buffy ignored Giles and went on; she felt used and that's one thing she despised.
"Why didn't you just tell them your real name?" Doyle asked quietly.
"Because it would of added more questions."
"Why are we using my real name then?"
"Because it doesn't change anything really since they haven't met anybody by that name yet." She whispered back.
"Quit the whispering and answer the question." Buffy spat.
The young blonde stood from her chair, "Look we can't answer your questions."
"Sit down." Buffy sternly said. The young girl without question sat back in her chair. "Now I'm going to ask you some questions and you're both going to answer. Agreed?" The two nodded uncomfortably, both Angel and Giles finding this stern Buffy to be slightly scary themselves. "Good. First off name?"
"My name is not Kathy, but I can't give you my real name; please understand it's important."
"Fare enough. So you two aren't brother and sister?"
"No." The two replied shaking their heads. Both Buffy and Angel felt their hearts sink knowing that their children sitting across from them aren't related.
"Who's mother am I?" Buffy asked. She knew the answer, but the thought of her and Angel not being... it's just to hard to imagine.
"You're mine." Kathy replied raising her hand.
"Buffy if you don't mind?" Giles asked hoping to interrupt to ask a few questions of his own.
"No go ahead."
"How did you two come here?" Giles asked.
Kathy could see her mother was very much hurt over what she has just learned and Doyle could see it bothered Kathy so he answered.
"It was my fault. Our Aunt was taken away a few years ago. We believed she was dead but she recently turned up destroying everyone. We went into hiding."
"What does this have to do with coming here?" Giles asked still confused.
"Our family came to the idea that we should open a worm hole sending one of us back to the date our aunt was taken."
"One of you two?" Angel asked finding this to be shocking.
"No, no. Not us two. One of the family."
"Possibly Uncle Connor. Course you and he were having a fuss over that idea though." Kathy interrupted.
"Connor?" Angel was seeming to be more confused.
"He's my brother." Doyle replied.
"So you're her uncle?" Buffy asked.
"No!" They both exclaimed.
"Connor's my Uncle through marriage." Kathy said putting it straight.
"Yeah only through marriage." Doyle agreed.
Buffy seemed a bit confused over that. Who does she possibly know who has a sister. She was trying very hard to figure out who she has a child with. While Angel was trying to hold his smile in over the thought he actually has another son who's older and married.
"What brought you two here than?" Giles asked once again.
"Like I said before, Genius here wanted to meet--" Kathy paused when she realized how worried Doyle looked. The thought of Angel wondering why is something Doyle didn't want to deal with. "--meet someone. Anyway he asked me what time would I choose when it came to seeing the whole gang working together in the beginning."
"And you chose this date?" Giles asked finding that confusing. Kathy nodded.
Before Giles could ask why a knock came from the door. Buffy got up to get it with Giles and Angel accompanying her. Kathy gave Doyle a worried look and he nodded back slightly to her as they both got up from the table. Buffy opened the door finding the gang standing waiting outside.
"Buffy I got the gang together. What's the matter? What's the emergency? It is an emergency right? I mean it is late." Willow stammered on worried, walking in with Oz following from behind.
"I'll have to agree with Will, it's late Buffy." Xander replied walking in. Buffy closed the door after Xander walked in.
"This is the problem." Buffy exclaimed pointing to Kathy and Doyle standing in front of the fireplace. Willow, Oz and Xander looked towards the children confused, them doing the same.
"Hi." Xander broke the silence.
"Hi." replied Kathy.
"Look he's--" Doyle began to say.
"I know Doyle." Kathy replied looking a bit dizzy.
"What?" Xander asked smiling; he could see the two knew something but weren't going to spill.
"Uncle Oz!!" The two shouted excited rushing over to give him a hug. Oz is surprised over the sudden hug, and Willow couldn't help but smile over that, until she realized what they said.
"Uncle? What's going on?" Willow asked; even Oz was a bit curious as was Xander, all three facing Buffy for answers.
Both Buffy and Giles were talking to the three while Angel was sitting in the living room with the two kids who haven't said a word since they hugged Oz.
"Doyle?" Doyle looked up smiling towards his dad. "Your mom? Is she and I… happy?"
Doyle faced Kathy who seemed to be in her own little world. "I think so." Doyle knew his parents were happy but how sure was he, they argued allot and didn't agree on allot of things. If he had to be truly honest though, he would say they were the happiest parents he's ever met; his family was a family he would never give away. But if he told his father that, he feared it'd be to unbelieveable.
"Do you think you could give me a name?" Angel asked smiling.
Doyle couldn't help but glance back at Kathy who wouldn't lift her face up; she was usually the wise one and after screwing up already by sending them back to this point he owes it to her to ask.
"I'm not sure if it's a good idea. We've already given allot of info." Doyle was sure that was the right thing to say.
"Well….do I at least know her? I mean right now?" He asked remembering how Kathy mentioned them not meeting someone named Doyle, who supposedly his son is named after.
"Yes." Doyle said sinking his head to face Kathy. "Hey are you ok?" He asked Kathy.
"I'm feeling weird." She replied looking ill.
"Feeling weird how?" Angel asked.
"I don't know. My brain feels kind of numb and my body aches."
"Doyle are you ok?" Angel asked worried, hoping it has nothing to do with them going through that worm hole.
"My body kind of aches too, but nothing serious."
"Maybe you should lay down." Angel replied. He picked Kathy up in his arms and carried her to the couch.
"Angel?" Buffy asked seeing Angel place Kathy on the couch.
"I think something's wrong with her." Angel replied seeing her color was becoming pale.
"Is she going to be ok?" Doyle asked worried. Before anyone could answer screaming was heard outside nearby the house and the team rushed out. Leaving Doyle and Kathy alone in the house.
"Help!" A scream came out as Cordelia bumps into Angel and Buffy. "Over there! It's him…Spike!" Cordelia quickly rushes into Xander's arms as the two headed inside, Willow and Oz accompanying while watching their backs.
"Let's end this!" Buffy exclaimed.
"Couldn't agree with you more." Angel replied.
"I've never been so scared in my life. Or maybe I have, I don't know. This town is just crazy." Cordelia whined in Xander's arms.
"Calm down Cor. It's going to be alright, you're safe in the house. He hasn't been invited in."
"Not yet." Doyle said to himself; getting Kathy to slightly smile.
"Who are they?" Cordelia asked seeing the young girl lying on the couch with a young boy next to her.
