"Wesley!" Lorne, Gunn, Fred and Angel all exclaimed. Britney looked at
Spike who didn't even seem to care whom this was.
"They let me out today, it is SO good to be back." Wesley began, he looked around. "Where is Conner?"
"Holtz took him into some dimension. I was researching but staring at a computer screen was getting to me." Fred answered.
"You are Wesley? The ex-watcher?" Britney asked.
"You have heard of me? I am guessing you are Britney. Angel used to talk about you all the time."
"Angel! Nothing bad I hope. Anyway as you all have probably figured out by now I am the Slayer." Britney began; she turned around and looked at Spike. "So watch it vamp."
"Wesley, it is getting pretty late, do you want to crash here tonight?" Angel asked. Wesley reluctantly nodded and collapsed on the couch. "Britney, you can take the extra room upstairs. Spike you can stand outside and catch on fire." Angel said his last sentence with a touch of sarcasm.
"Thanks Angel." Britney replied. She picked up her leather bag that no one had noticed before and followed Angel upstairs. "Angel, it is kind of strange to be here I mean I haven't seen you since last summer. I missed you," the Slayer began while following Angel to the extra room.
"Did you all plan this, coming back at the same time?" Angel joked. "I had no idea when I would see you or Wesley again. I called Spike because I thought I might be able to use his help." He continued.
"I am back for the first time, I know none of these people, and I sort of feel like an outsider."
"You shouldn't, Gunn helps with the slaying, and so does Wesley. Fred does all the research, Cordelia has visions. Oh she isn't here right now she is on vacation. Trust me you will fit right in."
"And that vampire, Spike?"
"An old friend, not really a friend but, we have known each other since he was sired. How long are you staying?"
"I hope for a good while, I don't have a watcher and I don't want one. So if the council sends one, they leave. The real reason I am here is I want to help you. One of my old demon pals told me Angelus was in trouble, and I knew I had to come here." The Slayer explained.
"I am glad you are back, all this is a bit much. You can help me we will try to find Sahjhan tomorrow." Angel replied. The Slayer nodded and Angel got up and exited the room. Britney sat there a moment; she wasn't the least bit tired. Oddly, her room had a window so she decided to do some before bedtime Slaying. She pulled open the window and grabbed a stake, and luckily the window wasn't too high from the ground. She lowered herself down and made a soft landing.
"What are you doing out so late?" Spike said, he had come outside and was smoking.
"Um, I am not tired so I thought,"
"You would sneak out and get yourself killed."
"Well, no I just, what are you talking about? I can take care of myself, I am the Slayer you know."
"I know, but do you think any other vampire or demon would care?"
"You are the most hard to get along with vampire that I know. I don't see how Angel stands you."
"He doesn't most of the time." Spike continued. The vampire and Slayer stood in the silence, but then Britney remembered something.
"Earlier when you said everyone else was coming tomorrow, who did you mean?"
"Some of Angel's old friends."
"Like?"
"Buffy, the other Slayer, Willow the gay ex-Wicca, Xander the defenseless loser, and Dawn."
"Dawn?"
"Do I have to explain everything for you? What ever happened to Faith Slayer?"
"She died in jail, I don't really know how, but from what I understand she went evil. Okay, now I told you what you want to hear, happy now vampire?"
"I guess." Spike responded. Britney stood there staring over the buildings into the Los Angeles skyline.
"I am going to go Slaying, before the sun rises." The Slayer said, she turned and began to walk off when she noticed Spike was following her. "Why are you following me?"
"I thought you might need help, besides I am bored out of my mind standing out here doing nothing."
"Alright, whatever. Just don't get in my way." Spike followed Britney to a dark ally near Angel Investigations.
"Where are we?"
"It's okay, I grew up around here I know where I am going." The Slayer said looking up, thinking she just saw something in front of her.
"What was," Spike began.
"Shhhh!!" the Slayer exclaimed. The two of them didn't know it but a demon was closing in on them. "Spike, there is something in this ally." She told him. Spike rolled his eyes and then fixed them on a trashcan. "What?"
"Whatever it is, it is back there." Spike warned her. Britney nodded and slid a stake out of her pocket.
"One, Two, Three." Britney whispered. Spike knocked over the trashcan and Britney pinned the, what she thought was a demon, against the wall. "Do you know Sahjhan?" the Slayer questioned.
"Yes." The vampire chocked out, he tried to pull Britney's hands off his neck, but she didn't budge.
"Where is he then?"
"Okay, I will tell you, here is where you can find him. It may not be so easy to find though." The demon began.
"They let me out today, it is SO good to be back." Wesley began, he looked around. "Where is Conner?"
"Holtz took him into some dimension. I was researching but staring at a computer screen was getting to me." Fred answered.
