Chapter 7:

When they got back to Cordy's apartment Wes was waiting for them. He shot Spike a pointed glare as he growled, " Can me, and Cordelia have some privacy please?"

Spike said as he walked back outside, " Sure Percy, don't get your knickers in a twist."

Cordy had to stifle her laughter at Spike's words as well as the outraged expression on Wes's face. He sputtered once Spike was gone, " Cordelia, I don't see why you put up with that vile moronic, idiotic soulless demon, seriously I mean he isn't.."

Cordy held up a hand to stop him as she said in a hard voice, " That's enough Wes. Now what did you come here to tell me?"

Wes cleared his throat, and replied, " I found a very disturbing prophecy involving Angel, and Connor."

Cordy sat down on her couch, and was about to ask Wes about the prophecy, when Sike flew through the oor, and roared, " What prophecy Watcher?"

Wes knew Spike was very protective of Connor so he chose his words very carefully, " I uncovered a prphecy that stated...that stated Angel would..."

Spike growled, " Angel would what Watcher?"

Wes licked his suddenly dry lips as he continued, " Angel will kill Connor. I didn't want to believe it, but all the signs are there."

Cordy asked, " What signs Wes?"

Wes said, " Remember the earquake a couple days ago."

When both of them nodded he continued, " Well that was the first sign, then there was fire, and blood."

Spike asked, " Yea so?"

Wes said, " Those were the signs."

Spike stated, " Ya read it wrong Watcher."

Wes fixed him with an annoyed glare as he stated, " I did not read it wrong all of the portents say that it will occur in the next day, or so."

Spike growled, " I'll stake im if he hurts the bit."

Cordy said, " Wes go home, tomorrow we'll think of something to do."

Wes went to grab Cordy, and shake some sense into her, but Spike stepped in front of him, and growled, " Don't."

Wes squared off against Spike as he bellowed, " Don't you get it this is serious."

Cordy said, " Go home, you're tired, we'll figure it out in the morning."

When Wes still glared at them Cordy threw up her hands, and cried, " For god sakes Wes what would you have us do kidnap Connor?"

Wes nodded as he stated, " If need be."

Spike's eyes flashed yellow as he said in a low deadly voice, " Touch the bit, and I'll rip yer bleedin throat out."

Wes stared at Spike as he said, " What if Angel kills him, then would you believe me?"

Spike said, " If it comes to that, I'll handle it."

Wes asked, So you don't think I should take Connor away?"

Before Spike could answer Cordy said, " No we'll sit down tomorrow with Angel, and explain all of this."

Wes nodded as he rose to leave, and said, " Thank you Cordy, I appreciate that you listened, and kept an open mind."

And with that he left. After the door had closed, Cordy looked over at Spike, and asked, " What if Wes is right, what if Angel is going to kill Connor?"

Spike gathered her in his arms as he soothed, " Ssh pet, Angel isn't gonna kill the bit. I promise."

Cordy nodded as she asked, " Then I wonder who's behind this?"

Spike replied, " Those bloody bastards, I gave them more than enough warnings. This time I'll kill a few of them."

Cordy asked as she walked into the bedroom, " Who are you talking about Spike?"

Spike replied as he shed his duster, pulled off his shirt, and followed her into the bedroom, " Wolfram&Hart luv"

She replied as Spike sat on the bed, and he watched her undress, and took off his boots, " Why would Wolfram&Hart do that?"

Spike said as he took off his pants, and climbed into bed, " They want to bring fourth Angelus."

Cordy said as she climbed in beside him, and snuggled up next to his chest, " we'll go have a chat with them later tomorrow."

Spike grunted as they both fell asleep.

How will Angel react to the prophecy
