Lilah Morgan smiled. The plan had worked. Sandy had come and asked her father what his law firm was really about. He had told her the truth, even though the senior partners asked him not to. She got angry. She had a reason, but like every teenager she gave in. The lawyers had promised her money and fame and anything she asked for. It didn't take long for her answer.
It was sad really. Giving up a boy that you were truly in love with for some false promises. But Lilah couldn't care less.
The boy struggled in his bonds. The lawyers laughed. It was only a matter of time before their specialist would come and then they would cut him open alive. For years they had wanted to see how he ticks, and now was their chance. Sandy sat in the corner, ashamed at what she had done. At first she had cried, but the wad of money handed to her calmed her down.
Pretty soon, the note they had sent Angel would reach him and he would come rushing to the rescue like those hero types do, and it would be like killing three birds with one stone. The third being Sandy. Her father didn't know it yet, but once she wasn't needed anymore they would end her misery.
Back at the hotel, things were quiet. Yes, Angel had received the note and the badness that came with it. Everybody was silent. They wouldn't dare say a word. Connor was kidnapped and it was pretty sunny outside. Angel just sat down looking at his shoes on the brink of tears. He wouldn't ever let his son die. But since Connor had told him that he would never even try to help with the whole save the world stuff, the world needed somebody to help. There was only one slayer, sometimes two, and there was a world of bad evil things.
Cordy walked toward Angel and put her hand on his shoulder. "Angel, we'll deal. We can go save Connor and then have a happy reunion. It can be part of your bonding deal."
"No, Cordy!" Angel yelled. Cordelia jumped back. Angel jerked up. "No, it won't be okay. My son is going to die if I don't do something. Connor will die! And now the sun is out and where they are is nowhere near the sewers. I won't be able to make it all the way over there without bursting into flames and dying."
"Angel, we would never let him die. We will work around this and we will save your son." Wesley said slowly, afraid he would have a sudden burst again. "I'm sure they won't do anything until you go."
"How about a big ass blanket?" Gunn added. "I'm betting that we can find something to cover you."
"No." And that was all he said. He stood up and ran up the steps of the hotel, into one of the rooms. Fred started pacing around the room. She stopped suddenly.
"I have an idea."
The room was filled with tension, Connor observed. It had been an hour since they had sent a letter to his father telling him to come and save his only chance at having a son. Not until now had Connor realized that. He was his father's only chance to have a kid, and Connor had ruined it. He had made sure everything his father worked for was lost and now… Connor couldn't help but feel like he ruined his father's whole life, that long life, by acting how he had. Was it his Dad's fault that he was what he was? No, it was his Mom's fault.
The door jerked open. Connor straightened up, waiting to be rescued. But no such luck. "Mmm hmgh?"
"What?" Fred asked. She ran toward him and untied the rope in his mouth.
"What are you doing here? And were is my father?"
Fred looked down at the floor as Cordy, Gunn, and Wesley ran in after. "He didn't want to join us." (BTW in my fanfic world Fred is no longer crazy, she got over it) "I'm sorry. But it looks as if Wolfram and Hart has cleared out of here. I guess they heard us coming."
"Not quite." A voice from behind said. Fred spun around, as did the others.
"Who are you?"
"Has it been that long?" Remi asked. "Well, it's been about 13 years I suppose but I never thought you'd forget me completely."
Wesley stepped up. "Remi Ark? We watched you die."
"Haven't you ever learned that contracts are binding? We can't just leave because you kill us. Us lawyers stay for a great while. We-"
"We get it. You always come back. You never die. We get the point. We want to leave just about now. So you just let us take Connor and we'll pretend this never happened."
"No, no. That won't be happening. What are you going to do? Smack us with your little purses? Hit us with your baseball bats? You guys are minors." Another lawyer said.
"This conversations reserved to people that we actually fear. Buh-bye." Gunn joked. The lawyer backed away.
"No, actually we plan on using these." Wesley, Fred, and Cordy took out crossbows from their bags. Gunn took out a baseball bat. (LOL) "Scared now?"
Lilah smiled. They had brought little weapons. Scary, not. She pulled Sandy from her seat and put her in front of the group. "You know what I love about you guys? That you think that we're scared of you. We aren't. Wanna shoot us? Go ahead. But you may hurt that little friend of yours."
The group took that in. They shouldn't be so scary seeing as they had no weapons what so ever. Right now they should just take Connor and leave, but now they had Sandy, which had not made things simple. Sandy looked at her father. "Dad, help. I did this whole thing for you and now you let them touch me like this." She said as she wiggled around.
"You set this up? I knew shouldn't have let you in. I knew it! I was right, everybody else was wrong." Cordelia yelled, in joy. The she stopped. "Sorry. But now we can go. The puny lawyers can't hurt us, and we have weapons. The girl isn't gonna be sad that we left without saving her. Am I right?" She looked back at Wesley. He nodded in approval. "Yes! Right again!"
They continued to point their weapons at Lilah and the others, that includes Gunn and his baseball bat. They walked to the door and started to walk out. Four fairly large demons stepped in front of them.
"You didn't think we wouldn't bring a little protection, did you?" Holland said, laughing.
"I don't think we can fight these guys without Angel." Fred pointed out. They Fang Gang backed away.
Two of the demons, who were standing in front of the door, got pushed away. Angel stood in the doorway. "Yeah, Fred. I think you're right. Good thing I'm here then." Connor looked at his father happily.
Angel kicked the largest demon in the face. They began to fight. Wesley went at one of the demons. It turned to him and slashed his arm with a claw. Gunn grabbed another demon and pushed in onto the wall. Fred held up her crossbow and shot the last demon. The bow slightly grazed its arm. It turned around and ran at her. She put the crossbow down and grabbed her purse and started to whack it with it.
Angel killed his demon and started to help Fred with hers that was laying on the floor hiding it's face from the purse. Wesley killed his shortly afterward and ran to Gunn, slitting the demon's throat, therefore killing. The fighting went on and as it did the lawyers began to back away from the fight more and more.
Angel killed the last demon and looked at them. " I don't think so. We had a deal. You weren't going to hurt my kid and I wasn't going to hurt you. You broke your part of the deal. Now it's my turn."
"Something wrong with that." Remi said. "Another associate said that, we unfortunately had to kill him. And we didn't hurt your son. Not yet at least."
Angel stared blankly at her. He looked back at his crew and motioned for them to head out. They all walked out, Angel and Connor dragging behind. "Dad, can you teach me?"
"Teach you what Connor?"
"Teach me how to save the world."
