"Giles, we aren't finding it," Willow complained
"Codex, Angel do you have that one?" Giles asked
"Um," Angel shuffled through the books until the found the book, "Here."
Angel tossed the book to Giles who caught it. Giles flipped through the
pages skimming each page.
"Here it is!!!" Giles yelled, "I mean yes I found it." He composed
himself and handed the book to Angel who read it out loud to the group.
/////A child will be born of two warriors.
One born of light but touched by darkness
and one born of darkness but touched by light.
This child will have the strength of the slayer
and the stealth of the one with the Angelic face.
When the child becomes of age
it will avert the End of Days.//////
When Angel finished reading he looked up and the group who's mouths were
hanging open, "Oh come on what did you think their child was going to do?" Oz
asked breaking the silence. Everyone chuckled.
"We need to find Buffy," Xander piped in
"Yes I think we do," Giles said in his British accent.
"Let's split up, if you find her bring her back here and....let's all
come back here in about 2 hours," Angel ordered
"Alright," they all walked up the stairs, paired off and went their own
directions.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
"How did I get paired up with you?" Angel asked
"Just pure luck," Xander replied
"Yeah L.U.C.K.Y me!!!" Angel said
"So you got the Buffster knocked up?" Xander asked
"Yes, just look for her," Angel replied
"Fine," Xander shot back
~~~~~~~~~~
"Do you think Giles is doing any better than us?" Willow asked Oz
"Who knows," he replied
"What are we going to say to her when we see her? What if she refuses
to come back with us?" Willow asked
"Willow it's okay you and Buffy are buds you'll know what to say, and
she's only been gone for a couple of days now." Oz took Willow's hand in a
silent comfort.
"Poor Angel," Willow said
"Cause he got paired with Xander?" Oz asked
"Well that and Buffy and his baby are gone, and he had to carry those
memories around inside and didn't let anyone know, it had to eat him up,"
"Yeah," Oz simply replied. He felt a drop of water on his head, "Great
rain."
"Should we go back? It's starting to rain pretty bad." Willow said
putting the hood up on her sweater.
"I think we should keep looking a little bit longer," OZ suggested.
~~~~~~~~~~
Buffy walked down the street, in the rain with her arms crossed over
her chest. Her eyes were glazed over. She kept thinking back to that day
that she just found out happened. She also kept thinking about what would of
happened if the Powers-That-Be would have let Angel stay human.
"Buffy!!!" she heard a voice yell. It brought her out of her daze she
looked up and searched the streets for the person who yelled her name. She
was the only one out on the streets. But she looked off to the left and saw
Angel and Xander running towards her.
"Buffster are you ok?" Xander got to her 1st and pulled her into an
embrace.
"Fine," Buffy answered half heartedly
"We've been worried about you," Angel added
"Ohhhhhhh," Buffy's hands flew to her stomach has a bolt of pain shot
through her.
"Buffy are you ok?" Angel asked as him and Xander braced her with their
arms.
"I.....I think my water just broke," Buffy said looking up at Angel.
"Oh my," Xander replied
"Codex, Angel do you have that one?" Giles asked
"Um," Angel shuffled through the books until the found the book, "Here."
