Angelus has commenced his plot to destroy the Slayer
The Bronze was a heaving mass of bodies, typical for a Friday night.
After being blanked by yet another friend, former, she mentally appended,
Cordy finally got lucky. "Willow, am I glad to see you, and my god, did I
just say that" The redhead laughed. "Cordy, seen Xander anywhere?" A frown,
"No, Xander, lameboy, Harris has stood me up" Just as "Hi Cordy, sorry, I'm
late and Willow? Aren't you meant to be somewhere else? Hey, I'll call
Buffy and let her know..." "No," snapped Willow. "Don't want to, bored with
Buffy and girly videos" They looked shocked, Willow smiled, "Well a girl
needs some funtime" They relaxed. New boyfriend, then worried, remembering
the last one. Xander began.."It's not a ro" Another laugh, "No silly" Xander
began to speak when Cordelia's elbow dug into him. "Go get some drinks.
Girltalk time" They watched as Xander fought through the throng.
"OK, Will" Cordelia began, "'fess up, who is he?" Willow's smile took
on an enigmatic look, "just a guy I met" then more wistfully, "Xander's
lucky, to have you, your soft skin, hair" idly Willow's hands began to
stroke the hair. "Euwwww" Cordelia jumped back. "WIllow, I'm already a
social leper with Xander" Willow scowled, "Screw him" then a more wicked
smile, "unless you already have" Cordelia stood aghast. "WIllow!! I know
you are jealous but get over it." Another scowl, then Willow saw something
in the distance and muttered "gotta go, see you later" and swept past, not
before a lingering pat on Cordelia's rear. "Euwwww" Cordelia muttered under
her breath.
Xander returned. "Hey, Cordy, what happened to Willow?" "She left, and
boy does she have issues" Cordelia's glare silenced any questions Xander
might have had. They drank in silence. Xander just once daring "Buffy's
gonna be upset when she finds out about Willow" before "Ouch" as Cordelia's
shoe connected with his shin. "Let's go, Xander" she eventually said,
without a hint of apology.
Willow had, meantime, met with Angelus. "So? "She asked. "Oz?" Angelus
laughed. "I thought he was the taciturn one...and no, I didn't" Willow
pouted, "you promised" Angel smiled. "You didn't kill him" Willow
misinterpreted. Again the laugh. "I'll take you to him, he's changed a bit
though, just not into a vampire" Refusing to say anything else, he led her
to an old abandoned house. Here in the basement was a large chained doglike
creature. "A puppy, you got me a puppy. Oh Angelus." Then she noticed a few
scraps of clothing. Oz's clothing. "Bad puppy, eating Oz" she lashed out at
it. The animal leapt back with a yelp of pain. Angelus couldn't hold it
back. "Willow, it didn't eat Oz.... it is Oz" She looked amazed. "Oz??"
Angelus shrugged, a shame the girl's brains hadn't quite survived the
transition. Of course, what had had been very entertaining, but right now he
needed brains. "It's Oz. He's a werewolf. But hey, you can still keep him.
Just don't let him out of the cage. And he'll be human most of the time.
Willow beamed. "My very own puppy to play with and pat and cuddle." then
vamping out, "and torture. Naughty puppy not telling me he was a werewolf"
Again, Angelus shrugged.
"Come along Willow, work to do. Time to show Cordelia and Xander your
new boyfriend." He hustled her out. Finding them was easy enough. Back at
the Bronze they met Harmony. Who was polite because Angelus looked so
gorgeous. "Oh, they left in Cordy's car. Probably gone off into the woods."
She blinked, they had gone. Ah well, she thought. Odd though, Willow had
stood right by a mirror but no reflection. Maybe if she ignored her enough
the rest would vanish.
The car was easy to find. Better yet, it was isolated and alone and
within carrying distance of the house where Oz was chained. They approached.
The occupants were too busily involved with each other to notice. Well, not
until the doors were ripped off and they were roughly pulled out. They saw
Angel first. "Hi guys. Why so quiet? Doesn't an old friend get a greeting
?" Xander tried bluster "You're no friend and when Buffy gets you you'll
be..." "Bored. Can't we just do it now" The languid voice from Cordelia's
captor. "Mmmmm, I get this one Angelus? She looks sooo delicious" Xander
slumped. "Oh god, not Willow" Then Angelus was upon him.
Angelus looked up. The job was done. Shame he had to turn the irritating
boy but maybe the replacement would be better. If not, well, it wouldn't be
the first time he'd staked a vampire. Willow was looking bemused. "Problem?"
Angelus asked. "She's no fun" Willow whined. "Won't fight and I can't make
her drink." Cordelia had fainted. He grinned. "Just force her mouth onto
your wrist and squeeze. She doesn't have to be awake" Willow did, still
complaining about it being no fun. Then, carrying the two prone forms, they
returned to the house.
Angelus checked his watch. Still only nine o'clock. Time for phase two.
"Willow, want some fun ? " Willow nodded. "Who with," she asked eagerly.
"Joyce Summers" he replied. A gasp. "The Slayer's mom?
Won't that be dangerous...if Buffy is at home...I mean" She pouted. "But
Joyce won't be at home. She's meeting a new client at the gallery. Guy can't
make it until late. "Oh, then I take both of them?" Willow's face lit up.
Angelus sighed. "No, just Joyce. Take her and turn her." "Right, but why let
the client go?" Willow questioned. Again the sigh. "There is no client."
"But you said" Willow interrupted. Grabbing hold off her. "Willow, there is
NO client. He's a ruse, a deception to get Joyce away from home. Now go...."
Watching her leave, he shook his head. He really hoped the others would
be an improvement. But then, the new Willow had such lovely moves with her
hips.... Ah well, back to school. Little gypsy girl needed a lesson. After
all, her tribe gave him his soul, time to remove hers.
