AN: Here's Chapter four. Sorry about the wait I have been working on other fics and I have final exams this week and next week I get of school on the 18th I CAN'T WAIT!!! Well I'll stop blabbing here's the next installment of Grief.
Buffy looked at Giles, a grim expression on her face.
Buffy: What do you mean missing?
The rest of the slayerettes waited for Giles' answer.
Giles: (Fumbles with Glasses) Well Buffy, it seems that Angel and Cordelia went to meet somewhere in LA and they never returned to the hotel, Wesley tells me that the situation has gotten a little more complicated the past couple of months and that Angel and Cordelia have been missing for three months
Buffy: Three months? And this is when they decide to tell us and what's gotten more complicated Giles? is some new evil rising?
Giles: No Buffy but I'm not sure how to tell you this but Angel, he has a son
Shocked expressions went around the room, Buffy was speechless, she didn't know how to react to this news, should she be happy for him? Or mad at him for not telling her? Buffy had no idea how Angel could have a son, he told her himself it was impossible for vampires to have children. Then a troublesome thought went through her head:
What if he's human?
Spike: I thought Vampires couldn't have children
Giles: (harshly) They're not
Xander: So how are we going to deal with this?
Buffy: (looks at her friends) I'm going to LA... Tonight
Xander: Not alone
Buffy: I'm not
Xander: does that mean we go home and pack our bags?
Anya: (loudly) NO! Xander can't leave I need him to rebuild the shop he can't leave it the way it is and he might... (trials off)
Everyone ignored Anya's outburst but Xander he looked at his soulmate, she had been acting strangely for some time now, they made eye contact and Anya looked away.
Buffy: Spike will come with me
Xander: (attention snaps back to Buffy) WHAT? after all he's done you still want to be with him?
Buffy: I don't want to be with him Xander, I just think he will be able to back me up if I need it
Buffy's words hurt Spike, she never knew how much her words hurt him
Xander: So now that he's back, you don't need our help anymore?
Buffy: I do need you, all of you I just think we should scope out what's going on Angel's son might be dangerous
Giles: No Buffy, he's not, Angel's son is human
Buffy: (looks at Giles) ok well...
Dawn: I could go, I mean I am pretty good in a fight
Buffy: Dawn I...
Dawn: Come on I've done really good this summer I only got hurt once or twice
and not that bad come on Buffy Please??
Buffy: (looks at Giles)
Giles: It's your decision Buffy not mine
Buffy: (Sighs) ok
Dawn: Yes!
Xander: I still don't think you should go with him (looks angrily at Spike)
Spike: What is with you people don't you believe in second chances?!
Xander: Yeah we do just not with vampires
Spike: What about Peaches? He sure became a registered member of the Scooby's after all he did when he went evil
Xander: That was sort of different, Spike, He had a soul
Buffy: (softly) Spike has a soul
Xander: What?
Buffy: Spike, he has a soul
Everyone was silent as they absorbed more surprising news
Spike: (Sighs) I shouldn't have come back
Xander: Maybe your right
Buffy: Xander did you just hear what I just said? He has a soul
Xander: I don't care he did far more worse then Angel ever did
Spike: I'm sorry is that what you wanna hear? huh? I'm sorry for everything I have ever done and I do feel bad, OK so Xander you poof, you can wallow in your manliness for once, you got Spike to apologize to you, of all people(walks into Training room)
Buffy: (shakes head and follows Spike)
Willow: You didn't have to go off on him Xander
Xander: Why not Will? After all he did...
Willow: (cuts him off) He's suffering, can't you see it? He has all this guilt and it must have taken a lot for him to apologize to you and you just blow up in his face
Xander: He can never take back what he did (walks out of Magic shop)
Buffy and Spike walked out after Xander left, Buffy had made up her mind.
Buffy: Here's the deal Spike, Dawn and Willow are going to come to LA with me Giles, Xander and Anya you stay here and keep Sunnydale under control, we will call you when we get to LA tonight
Giles: Are you sure you want to do this Buffy?
Buffy: Yes I'm sure
They left for the Bus station at dusk.
*In LA*
Gunn: Why did you call them we have everything under control here
Wesley: No we don't, we have no idea where we can start looking for Angel and Cordy, you should have contacted me sooner
Gunn: You were the one that said not to come to your door ever again
Wesley: (ignores Comment) I'm sure we will have better luck with the slayer here
Gunn: I hope your right... you do know that she will have questions right? I mean she is expecting a baby not a teenager, especially not one that grew up in a hell dimension
Wesley: We will explain everything in good time
They stood in silence till Fred charged down the stairs.
Fred: Wesley! Charles! there's been a sighting of a rampaging teenager on main street it might be Conner!
Gunn and Wesley raced out the door in hopes to catch the only child sired by the vampire with a soul.
AN: OK Look for Chapter five pretty soon and Keep the good reviews coming!!!! PLEASE REVIEW!!!!
