Sacrifice Eternal pt2

Exactly one year has passed since the death of angel. Most have tried to forget, but one

cannot. The love of his life, also the love of his after life Buffy Summers. While most of

her friends try to help her forget, she knows that she cannot. It's been a very tuff year she

has been trying to get through. This is something that she has to do alone. She is going to

visit the gravesite of angel for the first time since his burial. Angel was buried not in

Sunnydale nor was he buried in Los Angeles. Angel was buried in the far off desert of

Nevada. The reason for that was simple. For one Buffy has always tried to respect the



need for solitude of Angel, and second being that Angel was buried in human form Buffy

feared that others may wish to desecrate his for no reason other than pure hatred. Others

may try to revive him for some sort of vampire warrior. With this in mind that the desert

seemed like a good place. The scorching sun guards him during the day from the evils of

other vampires, but as the sun sets in the evening, a spell covers the grave of Angel. This

keeps anything evil from entering a semi-domelike area of protection covering Angel.

The spell is compromised of to pieces of essence of the powers that be.Thus weakining

them for the cost of eternal protection for the embodiment of Angel. Buff drives for

which it seemed like forever but instead it feels like an instant. She is nervous she doesn't

know how to feel or even what to say to his grave when she gets there. To first off the

gravesite is not marked only the essence of the spell can be seen through the eyes of

one..that one is Buffy. Buffy stops a couple of feet away from the dome spell turns of

the car, opens the door, steps out and sighs. Her heart seems to beat just once, as she

touches the dome and fazes through it. A couple of more steps and there she is at the spot

where the love of her hert and soul is buried..Angel. Buffy doesn't quite know where to

start so she decides to reminisce about how they first meet. The hours pass and yet time

seems to stand still. Now daylight is almost upon them and she has said all she needs to

say. Buffy feels that Angel has heard her. For once in the whole year of being without

him she feels better. Buffy gets back into her car and drives off. AS Buffy gathers

distance between herself and the gravesite of Angel she notices a small bird flying past

the spot where Angel lies. Just as the gravesite is out of site something is happening.



The ground is moving where she just sat for some hours ago. There is a crack where the

dry hard ground of the desert meet with the scorching sun. A place where many things

die it spawns life.(The life of one that should not be.) A hand scraps it's way to the top,

and it seems to beg for freedom. Fueled by an anger/sadness that most of us will never

feel. Only such emotions could push a man to dig himself out of a 6ft horizontal

stronghold. Angel now pulls himself up to the middle of his chest and his eyes burn from

the sun. Am I a vampire again he wonders, no that can't be because I'm not bursting into

flames. It's just that the extreme brightness was overwhelming. Now all the way out of

his grave Angel is somewhat disoriented, but still being somewhat vampire his senses and

obvious clues he can tell that he is in the desert and that he was buried facing north. So

therefore Angel knows that Sunnydale is west waaaaaaayy west. That is where he will

begin his journey. Haunted by images of his death, and wearing the same outfit he was

murdered in made for unsettling emotions. Now with the desert sun on his back Angel

heads west in search of love, vengeance, and answers. With those in mind he know that

this is the dawn of a new day.
