Angel walked slowly down a long driveway toward a large mansion. The moon shined brightly, reflecting off a barbwire fence surrounding the yard and the house. Angel looked around. Though they were well hidden through out the grounds, Angel could smell the guards. He passed by them, they made no move to come after him.
He walked up to the door. Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out a card and handed it into the shadows. A man slipped out of the shadows and slid the card through his machine. Nodding to Angel, he opened the door. Angel walked into the darkness as the door closed behind him.
Beyond the barbed-wire fence, hidden in the bushes, Buffy and the gang watched in disbelief as Angel went into the house.
"What are we waiting for? Let's get closer!" Anya added impatiently.
"Yeah. Come on!" Xander added, starting to move. Buffy shrugged and started to move as well.
"Are you all blind? Or stupid?" Spike asked angrily.
"Excuse me?" Buffy asked, shocked.
"You just want to walk up to The Mansion? Just like that? Do you all have a death wish or what?"
"The Mansion? What is it special or something?" Willow asked
Spike rolled his eyes. "If you don't know already, then you don't need to know. All I'm saying is don't go up there with out a plan."
"Spike, we have no idea what you are talking about." Giles said, exasperated.
"I can't tell you. Here, I'll give you this. Right now, there are fifteen guys out there with their guns trained on you. You've all tripped a silent alarm and in less than ten minutes someone is going to shoot you. I suggest we all leave. As soon as possible, preferably."
"Guns? Uh. That's not good." Xander gulped.
"Did I mention we should be leaving?" Spiked added urgently.
"Freeze! Put your hands up where we can see them. You all are under arrest for tresspassing. Make any sudden moves and we will be forced to fire." A voice, behind them, said.
"Too late now. We're goners for sure." Spike lamented.
"Ah. Don't shoot!" Xander shrieked as he put up his arms.
He walked up to the door. Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out a card and handed it into the shadows. A man slipped out of the shadows and slid the card through his machine. Nodding to Angel, he opened the door. Angel walked into the darkness as the door closed behind him.
