HUMANITY'S KISS
Chapter 3 - The Leap
SUMMARY - Even though the new gang is ready for action, some of them have a hard time with their past.
DISCLAIMER - I don't now, nor never owned anything that had to do with the greatest shows on earth Buffy and Angel, they belong to their respectable company's no matter how evil. Such as Joss Whedon, Fox, and Mutant Enemy.
AUTHOR'S NOTE - Sorry for keep mentioning the POV thing, but I keep getting reviews about it. If you find the way I change POV's confusing, ask me about it! Thanks! R/R.

"Angel, it's bad." That's all Cordelia could wisper after hitting her head on the desk.
"Shh. Cordy, Angel said holding her, just stay with me, don't go anywhere, you hear me?" Angel was saying more urgently.
"Right... boss." Cordelia said with a wink and a smirk. "Just let me rest on that couch."
"Ok, Cordy, here you go." Angel put Cordelia on the couch and walked over to the counter where Spike was.
"Uh, Angel," Spike started. "There's blood here."
"Yea, thats what happens when you hit your head on a desk Spike." Angel snapped.
"Yea, but, uh, kinda hungry."
"Oh, right, Spike go over and see if Cordelia needs anything, I'll clean it up." Angel said, grabbing paper towels.
"'Ellow Cordy, need anything? Water?" Spike asked.
"Thanks Spike, I'm good. Can you tell Angel to come over here though?"
"Sure thing, love." Spike turned around and walked over to Angel. "Cordy wanted to talk to you."
"Thanks." Angel walked over to Cordelia with a wet wash cloth and started to wipe her head. "Here you go Cordy."
"Angel," Cordy hesitated, she'd always knew that he helped others, but this seemed different. He seemed more interested in tending her wounds. Like he really cared about her as a grown woman and a potential lover. "Angel, I got to tell you about the vision."
"Unless it's really time crucial, you'll rest." Angel said with a little bit of authority.
"Yes sir." Cordelia mouthed. In a few minutes she fell asleep.

"Sunnydale High? It's been ages since I was here. Why am I here?" Cordelia asked. Revisiting the old highschool she went to was really confusing her.
"You're dreaming." Xander quickly replied. "This is all a dream, hitting your head like you did really makes you sleepy."
"Xander! What are you... what? How did you know that."
"Lets just say a good friend of both of ours wants you to know that you can go ahead."
"Go ahead? What's that supposed to mean?" Almost as soon as she said that the scene changed to her and Oz, looking for Xander and Willow.
"Oz, what are we doing?" Cordelia asked.
"Spike's hidden Willow and Xander and we're going to find them!" Oz replied.
"Oh, this is where I got impaled on a rusty pole right?" Cordelia asked.
"Yes. And we both see Willow and Xander kissing."
"But, then why must we go then?"
"I don't know, it's your dream. Try to think about what we'll see. Betrayal, disloyalty, our significant others making out. Try to focus on that scene. Now, like the Xander said a few minutes ago. That friend we both know, saved us, and she wants you to know, through the Powers that Be, that its ok. Go for it."
And with that she woke up.
"Cordelia, what's wrong? You were only asleep for a few minutes!" Angel rushed over to ask, Willow and Oz were in the background, getting some asprin.
"I feel perfectly fine, Angel." Cordelia said. "I just had to be told some things."
Angel looked puzzled.
"Now, onto that vision I had. There was a woman, in the zoo, getting attacked by what looks like a chimp, but is really a demon. It'll happen in a few hours so we better go."
"Right. Oz, get ready, Willow, do you think that a spell could be used here?"
"Well, I could put a barrier around the woman." Willow thought up.
"Good, get it ready." Angel ordered. "Willow, Oz, and Wesley, you are going to have to take care of it, its around noon. Spike, Cordy, and I will stay behind.
"Right Angel." Wesley said. Be back in a few hours.
After they left Spike came to Angel and Cordelia and said, "Well, I'm used to sleeping during the day, so I'm going to hit the sack. I'll see you all later."
"'Night Spike." Cordelia said.
After Spike left, Angel turned to Cordelia and asked, "Cordy, what 'things' did you have to be told?"
"To go for it, to leap." Cordelia said, looking at Angel, then floating her eyes around.
"Leap?" Angel asked.
"Yes, leap, here, I'll show you." And with that Cordelia grabbed Angel's hand and kissed him. Not just a peck on the cheek, but a deep passionate kiss between lovers.
"A leap." Angel said as the kiss ended and Cordelia fell into Angel's lap and dozed off.
* * *
Meanwhile, at the zoo, the gang, who all had their Icee's where hanging around the monkey pen.
"So, what are we looking for?" Willow asked?
"A woamn in a red turtleneck and black skirt." Wesley said.
"Oh guys, there she is." Oz pointed to a quite attractive, tall, blond who matched the description.
Willow wispered a phrase and yelled out the word, "Protection!" Instantly a barrier was around the woman. Who became statled. Then a monkey-like demon quickly jumped out of the pen and started to slash the barrier, trying so hard to make a scratch.
"I can't hold it for very long, that's a strong demon. Hurry."
Wesley pulled out an axe and walked up behind the demon, sneaking up on it. Quickly Wesley decapitated the demon, and Willow cancelled the barrier spell. The woman, who was ultimately terrified, fainted. Leaving a headless monkey-demon body next to her. As the gang walked out, they tossed the head in a trash can.
When they got back to the hotel, they saw Angel sprawled up on a couch with Cordelia laying on top of him.
"Uh, Angel?" Wesley asked.
"Huh, er, yea Wesley?"
"What are you doing?"
Angel looked down and saw Cordelia laying on top of him. "Oh we didn't, I mean, don't worry , I won't... Ok, Cordelia and I took a leap."
"A leap?" Willow asked.
"Yea, well, we, uh, kissed." Angel said shyly.
"Ah, Angel, there's nothing wrong with that, we thought you... you know... turned all grr!" Willow said.
"Oh, no, don't worry, I been to hell once, I dont wanna go again."
"Hey, Willow, want to take a leap?" Oz asked.
"Yes Oz, of course I do." And with that they kissed.
Spike walked downstairs and saw the scene of Angel and Cordelia and Willow and Oz and said, "Ah, bloody hell, I thought I was done with seeing that romance stuff."
"Spike, just take a leap. It'll happen." Willow said.
"A leap huh?" Spike asked.
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Spike went to open the door to reveil the one person he never thought he'd see again. Harmony.
