Chapter 8 :
Queen C.
Alley- night- all is dark.
LILAH: (knocking her foot against a stuff on floor)
OUCH!!
Focus on Lilah & Cordelia who are bordered the wall of the disused building where Angel had killed the demon more early.
CORDELIA:
SHH! Can't be more careful. We'll get located.
LILAH:
Oh! Shut up! I didn't ask to come!
They continue to advance and arrive to the building's door. Cordelia looks the number next to the door.
CORDELIA:
It's the address where Angel killed the demon in the morning.
LILAH:
Yes, and the building where Wes stole the stupid egg. And what we gonna give to the mummy?
CORDELIA:
We gonna give her a Lamaze lesson.
LILAH:
It's an egg, that doesn't need Lamaze lesson.
CORDELIA:
Yes and you know what you are talking about, hum?
LILAH:
Very funny! Really, I hope that she'll kill you first like that I'll die happy having seen you dying.
They enter in the building, it's obscure and silent. We just hear a water leak. Cordelia progresses softly close to the wall. There is a room at the extremity of the corridor. In this room the window lets go in moon's light. Cordelia goes toward this place. Lilah is after her holding her axe tight.
LILAH:
What's the plan?
CORDELIA:
I thought that was you who makes plan.
LILAH:
Yes, but here aside get out of here I don't see.
CORDELIA:
We go, we find her, and we kill her.
LILAH:
I can't believe we didn't kill you with that kind of plan.
They arrive in the place. Wesley is chained up into the wall and gags. Lilah goes to him and pulls the gag away. Cordelia turn around with her sword tended front of her.
WESLEY:
You've got the egg?
CORDELIA:
No, where the key is?
WESLEY:
Why you don't have it?
LILAH:
Miss 100.000 volt broke it.
WESLEY: (looking at Cordelia surprising)
Why?
CORDELIA:
Why everybody wants a reason. It was an accident.
WESLEY:
What did you do in my apartment?
LILAH:
Yeah, why?
CORDELIA: (hearing a noise)
It's not the time. Where is the mummy?
We see the demon comes by the door. It has claws, really big.
CORDELIA: (turning around it)
Oh, Okay, I've found it. - the demon approaches to Cordelia- Hey, Hi! It's not me who stole your spawn. Well, Okay, I broke it, but not against you. And look the positive sides, no cry, and no diaper full of poo-poo. -the demon groans - it's the poo-poo, hen?
The demon throws oneself out of Cordelia. Cordy keeps the demon's head away of her with her sword.
CORDELIA:
LILAH!!!!
LILAH: (panicked)
What?!!
CORDELIA:
The axe! Hit it!
Lilah approaches a little and hits the demon in the back with her axe. The demon gets up and sends the axe across the room with a kick on. It punches Cordelia in the face and releases her, for turns to Lilah who goes back softly.
LILAH:
I work for a really important firm. I warn you if something happens to me... -the demon approaches to Lilah more close and prepares itself for cut her throat with its claws. When it stops and falls down, Cordelia's sword on the back. We can see Cordelia stays up behind.
CORDELIA:
She wouldn't have been a good mother.
Cordelia takes the key on the demon. And detaches Wesley. He totters a little.
CORDELIA:
How she gat you?
WESLEY:
I was leaving of...well...
LILAH:
You leaved a pub totally drunk.
WESLEY:
Thank you for your help Lilah. -sarcastically. So what are you came?
Cordelia comes to talk but..
WESLEY:
Not you, her. -taking up his chin toward Lilah.
LILAH:
What! I saved your life and it's all!
CORDELIA: (facing Lilah)
In fact, I saved your life!
LILAH:
And what? You want a medal? -disdainfully. It was your idea, stupid idea!
WESLEY: (sarcastically)
Thanks for me.
CORDELIA: (pointing her sword on Lilah)
I want my apartment back.
LILAH:
Oh! So it was for that you came at Wesley; for ask him if he can use of his charms on me.
CORDELIA:
Well, I won't go so far but yeah.
LILAH:
We never had the intention to keep it, and now we have placed all the mini- cameras and bugs, you can go back in.
CORDELIA:
Okay, we go.
LILAH:
What, now! It's 4:00 a.m!
CORDELIA:
Like if the Wolfram & hart's lawyers sleep during the night. -smirking.
CUT TO: Hyperion- principal room. Cordelia enters in when Angel falls upon her.
ANGEL:
Dammit! Where were you going? I searched you everywhere!
CORDELIA:
I said to you that I'm trying to get my apartment back.
ANGEL:
You weren't at Wolfram & Hart!
CORDELIA:
No! I was with Lilah. You'd worried and I'm sorry, but I'm a big girl.
ANGEL:
Well, yeah, I guess. But when I was there I took advantage for ask, well ask, your apartment and they gave it to me like that. - snaps his fingers- it's a chance that the Wolfram & Hart lawyers don't sleep at night.
CORDELIA: (looking the paper weirdly she has the same in her pocket)
You are... -she smiles- so awesome, what can I do without you? -she hugs him.
CUT TO: Hyperion' lobby- 10:00 a.m There is a truck in front of the front door.
CORDELIA:
Okay, all my boxes are inside, so I go. I have a big mini-cameras and bugs hunting to do with Dennis, hoping that he was here when they put that shit in, and not in an other astral plane.
ANGEL:
You really wanted to go.
CORDELIA:
No, but I'm impatient to sleep in my bed. If it is still here.
The phone rings.
ANGEL:
I have to go, so I'll see you later. -sadly.
CORDELIA:
Oh! It's not so sad, please you're like if your little hamster came to die.
She kisses him on the cheek and goes out. He goes to the phone.
TBC....
PC: Angel will go for save Connor who is in a big danger. Chapter 9: Connor & Lorne arrive in the site.
Sorry if you find some conjugation faults or something like that.
