Chapter Twenty: The Return of Queen C

Cordelia woke up, tied to a pole a few feet away from Giles. He was now awake, and she spoke to him, "I'm gonna get us out of this, don't worry!"

"You have no idea how much better that makes me feel," Giles muttered.

* * *

Tara's spirit looked around, seeing that she was sitting next to a girl in a tree. The girl looked about thirteen. Tara woke her up. "Hey," She said. "It's time for you to go home."

The girl nodded, her spirit weaving between the clouds towards a home in the west. Tara sighed, and headed back to the Hogwart's Castle.

* * *

"Go check on Tara," Willow said, as Cordelia's condition didn't improve any more. She was still sitting in her original position, but had grown paler in the past two hours.

"How long can a person be out of their body before they die?" Angel asked.

"Two days at the most, if they're strong," Willow answered.

"Cordy's strong," Angel stated.

Wesley, Fred, and Gunn walked to the hospital, Wesley and Gunn arguing over who Fred should walk by.

Willow and Angel were left alone with Cordelia. Willow noticed that Angel's eyes never left Cordelia's face.

"So where's Conner?" Willow asked.

"Xander and Anya are taking care of him. Willow, is she going to-" Angel was cut off by Tara running through the door.

"Baby oh god I was so worried about you!" Willow exclaimed, hugging Tara tightly. She began raining kisses on her face, letting out peals of laughter.

"Honey, I'm okay, I got unstuck somehow. Someone freed all the people stuck to the shield - I didn't see who though," Tara explained.

Willow stepped back, looking at Angel. "Cordelia freed...you mean she wasn't there?" Willow asked. Angel frowned.

"I didn't see anyone, I was asleep, and then woke up...unstuck. Did Cordelia come?" Tara asked.

"She used her visions to find you," Angel answered. "How do we wake her up? Can't we just shake her out of it?" He asked.

"There's a spell, I saw it in the library," Tara offered. "I'll go get it, Willow, you'll have to get the herbs," She added.

"We'll be back in a few minutes," Willow promised, shutting the door.

Angel pushed a strand of hair out of Cordelia's face. "Cordy," He said gently. "You really piss me of sometimes, but you're a hero," Angel looked down. "Come back to me Cordy, I need you here, with me," He said.

* * *

Cordelia rolled her head back as she got a vision.

***Angel was sitting next to her, touching her cheek gently. He was telling her he needed her, he needed her with him.***

Cordelia opened her eyes. For once she was getting a nice happy vision. But she was confused. Angel wants me with him?

* * *

"Hurry, the longer she's gone, the harder it will be to bring her back!" Willow shouted, as they ran through the rain to the greenhouse.

* * *

"Hey look, I'm becoming more solid," Cordelia announced. "That can't be good can it?"

"I doubt anything about this situation can be good," Giles remarked.

Voldemort came back into the tent, sitting on a chair. "So, you're American," He said to Cordelia.

"So, you're a dumbass," Cordelia retorted. "God, what is it with you English Big Bads? I mean Spike was bad enough trying to be act scary, but you...what the hell are you supposed to be? A Circus show, the snake man?" Cordelia asked.

Voldemort's eyes narrowed. "Imperio!" He shouted.

Cordelia heard voices in her head. Sing, stick out your tongue, cry... Cordelia rolled her eyes. Someone was trying to tell her what to do? "As if, stop with the lame parler tricks. That doesn't work on me, hello, mind games kept out by the Powers That Be. What was I saying? Oh yeah, and why are you kidnapping old men-"

"I'm not an old man!" Giles protested.

"Giles, you're old enough to be my father, it's old. And what's with this forest of doom crap? I mean is this supposed to make me feel threatened? You want to rule the world, and you pick THIS as you're ultimate hide out? Please, I've ruled better...literally!" Cordelia ranted.

Voldemort's eyes were slits now. "Crutio!" He snarled.

Cordelia's face contorted in pain. When it was over, she looked at him. "And what's with the lighting?"

* * *

Voldemort decided to finally put a silent curse on Cordelia. His head throbbed. Americans were SO bloody annoying!

* * *

Giles looked at Cordelia in amazement.

Cordelia gave him a look that let him no NO ONE told off Queen C. Being a bitch in highschool really pays off sometimes Cordelia thought.

* * *

"Willow, you know that if she's stuck to the shieldey thing than we're not going to be able to bring her back with this spell," Tara told her. Willow froze.

"I know, but I don't think she's stuck to the force field. I think she's caught inside it somewhere. Maybe she went to find Giles?" Willow suggested.

"Yeah, but then we're not going to have that great a chance of getting her out," Tara reminded her. If she's able to be kept there by a physical force, then she's already running out of time. She's becoming more solid, and more dead," Tara told her.

"Then we better hurry," Willow answered. "I've got my stuff, let's go," She said, grabbing Tara's hand, and running through the rain.

* * *

Angel just sat, holding Cordelia's hand. He felt so helpless...so weak. If it was a demon about to attack them, then Angel was there, able to protect her. But he couldn't protect her from this, this was a whole new battle.

Angel couldn't save Cordelia from the trance she was in, he was useless in this situation.

"Hey big guy, what's with Cordelia?" A voice asked.

Angel turned. "Lorne!" He almost shouted it. "Cordelia went into a trance, to find Giles. She's stuck in it somehow, help her!" Angel said.

"Whoa, big guy, no hug, hello, how've you been?" Lorne asked. "Jeez, tough room," He remarked at Angel's glare. "Alright, time to get blasted into a wall again..."

Lorne sat down just as Willow and Tara burst into the room. "Huh?" Willow asked.

"Hi, I'm Lorne, I run a bar in L.A. Or I did before it blew up. And you two lovely ladies are..."

"Tara, and this is W-w-willow," Tara stammered. "Um, what exactly are you doing?"

"He's gonna go get Cordelia, he's done it before," Angel rushed. "Come on, come on, let's go! She's dying!"

"Right, one Host pancake coming up," Lorne joked. He closed his eyes. He massaged Cordelia's temples, and then felt himself flying, traveling.

"Oh!" He said, and Angel could here him. Lorne felt as if her were in two places at once.

"A couple of teenagers skinnydipping, listening to Dave Matthew's Band. Great Song..." He remarked.

He continued to travel, and finally came to the place that Cordelia was in, under a big silvery dome. He was transparent, he couldn't be seen that well by any of the dark wizards wandering about.

"Give me the heebie jeebies," Lorne remarked. "I'm in a dark forest, lots of dark wizards around. Man these guys have some cloudy auras!" Lorne frowned, as he heard some drunk wizards singing a song about disembowling muggles.

"Cordelia! Do you see Cordelia?" Angel asked.

"Hold on to you're pants big guy...Okay, I see a tent, lemme check," Lorne crept inside, and saw that Cordelia wasn't in it. "Nope, all this tent has is some majorly bad decorating...Wait a second. They have maps...going to Hogwarts, and L.A, and Sunnydale. Oh this isn't good," Lorne remarked, picking up a map.

"One of the maps is of L.A., the Hyperion and Caritas are marked. Cordy's apartment, Wesley's apartment, Gunn's apartment...They've got all the spots marked. Call me crazy, but I think that they're planning something involving you. No, change that, call me right. They've got notes on Conner, and on you. They have the spell to restoring you're soul, looks like they've been studying it," Lorne remarked.

"We're going to go check on Conner,"Willow said.

"Thanks," Angel replied. Tara and Willow exited.

"Okay, leaving the tent. Hey, where are all the bad boys going?" The host asked. All of the people were heading to the largest tent, in the middle of this "camp".

"Follow them," Angel ordered. "Hopefully it's not to Cordelia."

* * *

Cordelia was starting to get tired. It was HARD to be tired standing up to a pole for so long, especially when you weren't in your body to begin with.

"Cordelia, I don't mean to alarm you, but, it seems the entire camp is coming this way," Giles announced.

Cordelia opened her mouth to say "Great," but then remembered she couldn't talk.

Voldemort said a spell, and the ten fell back, revealing the entire camp to Giles and Cordelia. Numerous wizards said "Lumos," and Cordelia could see the faces of the dark wizards and witches grinning wickedly.

"So, you're the seer, the one that the Powers That Be gave visions to," Voldemort laughed. "So you're part demon...well that would explain why you're resistant to my Imperious Curse," Voldemort chuckled.

Cordelia wanted to say something, but Voldemort just held up his hand. He clucked his tongue dissapprovingly. "Now now, we don't want to tire ourself do we? The vampire with a soul, you work with him? So he'll come for you...good. But he's not going to find you alive," Voldemort said, sort of singing the last part. "Nope, what do you think he's going to find?"

My shoe up your ass Cordelia thought.

"He's going to find you're dead corpse, hung from a tree, by your feet. You see, we're going to kill you, end your life," Voldemort laughed, as Cordelia gave him a questioning look. "Yes, I know that you're out of your body, so we're going to fix that.

"Malfoy!" He shouted. A man with platinum hair, who resembled Draco Malfoy greatly, stepped forward.

"Yes my lord," He said, bowing.

"Summon the body," Voldemort ordered coldly.

"Yes my lord," He replied. He stood back, and then with a wave of his wand bellowed, "ACCIO BODY!"

For a moment no one spoke, as they waited for the body to arrive.

* * *

Lorne opened his eyes. "Angel, hold on to Cordelia as firmly as you can!" He instructed. "They're going to-" Lorne was cut off as Cordelia's body began to shake, and then was lifted up into the air. Angel was holding on to it, as Lorne was thrown off.

"What's happening?" Angel shouted.

"They're summoning her body, you're going to their camp!" Lorne shouted after him.

"Oh," Was all Angel could say, as he and Cordelia were whisked away.
