Time For Three
A Buffy, Angel, and Charmed crossover
Chapter 2
Buffy and Cordelia ran as fast as they could down the hall, but the creature was faster. The Shadow sped down the hall, after the two.
Just when it looked like it would catch up to them, Buffy saw their chance. The elevator door was closing, but Buffy lunged at the door and caught it before it closed.
"Hurry! Get in!"
Cordelia climbed inside, and Buffy followed. The doors shut seconds before the shadow would have entered. "What the hell was that?" asked Cordelia. Buffy replied, "I don't have the slightest idea." As soon as the words left her mouth, they heard a bam on the other side. A dent appeared on their side of the door. Cordelia pressed the down button, and the elevator began moving down the shaft.

"We need stakes." Were the first words out of Leo's mouth as he walked back towards the house.
"You know what… I'm gonna go check the book of shadows on vampires," replied Prue. "And," she continued "Leo, you being the only guy here, why don't you get down to reparin' the window?"
"First I'm going to go ask them about this." And with that, he orbed out.
Prue wandered up the stairs, and into the attic. There, on the little stand, lay the book of shadows. The picture symbolizing the power of three seemed to glow with an odd light. Instead of calling her two sisters, she stood there, staring at it. She'd been seeing this a lot recently… she'd once told Piper about it. She had said that Prue was overworking herself.
Prue opened the book, and looked in the part on demons. She passed different kinds of demon… she saw one that had been interesting her recently. She felt drawn to it. It read the Carrier demon…

Willow slowly opened her eyes. Cautiously she got up and examined the room. Xander and Jiles both lay unconscious on the floor. There was no sign of Buffy. For some reason she could not remember what had happened, but she remembered Cordelia appearing and saying something about Angel. That was it. All she could remember, at least. She walked toward Xander and placed her hand on him. A light slowly grew from her hand, and towards Xander. She jerked back her hand.
"Whoa!! What was that?"
The light was warm, and it continued to spread toward Xander. Slowly, it overcame him. He opened his eyes and looked up at Willow questionly.
"Uh, Willow… what happened? And why are you glowing like that?"
Willow looked at herself in a mirror. Sure enough, she was glowing with an odd yellow light. Then a thought dawned upon her. She slowly took steps toward Jiles, and layed her hand upon him. The light spread from her hand, and it slowly covered Jiles' body, just as it had done for Xander. Xander looked at the scene, the light escaping from Willow, and entering Jiles' body. Jiles opened his eyes and saw the same scene that Xander had seen.
"Willow… You're glowing. Why? What happened?"
He stood up and it dawned upon him that Buffy was missing. Willow bent down to pick up Jiles' book, and as she touched it, a vision came to her…
 |
Cordelia appearing at the door. Buffy stepping outside of the room with Cordelia. A figure passing threw the window. Everyone dropping onto the ground…
 |
The vision faded from her.
"Oh my… What was that?" She said to herself.
"What was what?" asked Xander.
"It was like… a vision… or… a premonition…"
 |
Angel ran away with all the speed that was left within him. What could that man be? Even for a demon, he was extremely powerful. And that woman. She had had powerful magic about her, more powerful than even he could fathom. But… he sensed about her that she was not a demon. The magic she displayed had a strange essence of light around it. He also sensed magic within the other two women, though not as powerful.
He continued running headlong into the night, but this was no problem for him. He was a child of the night. He was used to the darkness that mortals felt lost within. He stopped within an old alley, where he sat down to rest. He was recuperating from the fight with the demons, when it occurred to him. Buffy! I should go and tell her what happened, he thought to himself. After all, she was the slayer. She herself was protected by powerful magic. He stood up and thought to himself, where can I find her? She should be within the town, seeing as earlier that night she had battled the demons. But… he would have to go into hiding now. Morning was coming.

Phoebe walked to the shattered window, and bent down to pick up a piece of glass she had almost stepped on. She picked it up and…
 |
The vampire and the demon they had fought earlier in the night. Walking side by side. Prue walking behind them. Herself and Piper walking side by side with Prue. An incantation being said. Powerful light being emitted…
 |
"Piper, Prue, I had a premonition." She called out.
Prue came running down the stairs. Phoebe came out of the kitchen.
"About what, hun?" Asked Piper.
"About us… and the demon and the vampire… working side by side… It was really confusing."
Just then, Leo orbed in.
"I know who the vampire was, the demon lady, and why they are here…"
 |
Buffy and Cordelia looked back up at the room where they had left the others on the floor, completely unconscious. A strange light was emitting from the room. Then, Willow appeared at the window, and they realized that the light was coming from her. Willow spotted them and shouted out.
"Buffy! Cordelia! Are you two alright?" she called out to them.
They both nodded their heads yes, for they were amazed about the light that was coming from her, and, more importantly, the magic they sensed from her. It was as nothing they had ever felt before…
