That's Life On The Hellmouth!

by Beer Good

This is where I put most of my drabbles. A series of unconnected little scenes about everyday life on the Hellmouth and in LA. Some sad, some sweet, some just incredibly silly.

37. The Locked Up Monster

The Locked-Up Monster
Prompt: Saints

"So what's with you and convents, anyways?"

"I guess..." Angel looked at her through the prison visiting area's plexiglas, considering his answer. "To take someone who believes, someone that sure of what's right, good and evil, and break them until they die thinking that maybe all those forgive-me-fathers were for nothing... you don't just kill them, you damn them. Angelus... I lived for that."

"Ever met one you couldn't break?"

"A couple. I guess they're the sort who get made saints."

"Lucky them." Faith rolled her eyes.

Angel shrugged. "I don't know about that. I mean... I still killed them."
