Chapter 3
The following morning, Jax, Elle, and Lysh headed towards Angel Investigations to find out the verdict.
"Do you think he'll let us join?" Elle asked. "I mean, he must. We were sent by the Powers That Be, he can't refuse us!"
"He'll accept us. He needs our help," Lysh answered. They entered the building, greeted by a smirk from Cordelia, who sat behind the desk perfecting her nails yet again.
"Is that all she does?" Jax whispered to Lysh, who shrugged in response.
"The trio is here!" Cordelia yelled to the neighboring office. A few seconds later, Angel and Doyle stepped out of what appeared to be Angel's office, and approached the women. Doyle walked to the opposite side of the room and took a seat on the sofa. Cordelia glanced over at him to see if she could read anything in his facial expressions, some hint on what would be said in a few minutes. Doyle looked at her, shrugged his shoulders, and looked over to where Jax, Elle, and Lysh stood facing Angel.
"I thought about it last night," Angel started out. "But no final decision can be made until you all tell me what species you are." He stared each one in the eye, and once again tried to figure out the scent.
"Do you just want the species, or the whole history?" Elle asked.
"The whole history." Angel replied. "You start," pointing to Elle.
"Well," Elle began, "I am an orphan. My mom was human, and my dad was a caliph demon. And-"
"You wouldn't happen to be related to the one's who tried to kill me, would you?" Doyle cut in. Angel threw him a glance to shut him up. "Sorry, had to ask."
"I have no idea what you're talking about," Elle continued. "And that's basically it. Don't know what happened to my parents, but I've managed quite nicely."
"What about you, Jax?" Angel asked.
"Well, to sum it all up, I ran away from home when I was young, because my parents found out that I am a witch. A very powerful and knowledgeable wiccan, as a matter of a fact." Jax said proudly.
"Great!" Cordelia said. "There's nothing better than an all powerful Wicca. Who has contact to the Powers That Be, no less!" She stood up, walked around the desk, leaned against with her arms crossed. "And what about you?" She asked Lysh. "I suppose you're going to tell me you're a vampire or something."
"Actually, yes, I am." Lysh replied. "But sort of a 'special' one. I have the properties of a vampire; you know the whole strong, sharp teeth, must drink blood, type of thing. But I can go into the sun."
"What?!" Angel asked, not believing his own ears.
"Well, it hurts a whole lot, though."
"How is this possible?"
"To tell you the truth, I don't know. I never knew who my parents were. I've lived with my stepparents for all my life, I think." Angel stood there, appearing to be thinking about what he'd just heard. "Doyle, in my office."
"What about me?" Cordelia asked. Doyle and Angel ignored her and shut the door. "Why am I always left out? That is so not fair!" She sat down behind her desk, completely ignoring the trio.
"Jeez. What a baby!" Jax thought. *~*~*~*~*~*
"What do you think?" Angel asked Doyle once they had seated themselves.
"What do I think? I think you should let them in!" Doyle said. "I don't get those mind-splitting visions for nothing, you know." Angel agreed and had Doyle show the girls into his office. As they were walking in, Angel looked up and cleared his throat.
"Well, I've decided to let you join. You seem to be of no threat, but paying you is another matter."
"That's all right. The Powers That Be told us to work for you with or without pay," Elle said.
"That's right, they did," Doyle remarked, while looking at Elle. Elle looked up at Doyle, and their eyes locked.
"Ok, then we'll be back tomorrow to get started. C'mon, let's go," Lysh said. Jax and Lysh stood up and headed for the door. They walked out, waved good-bye to Cordelia, and were about to leave the building when Jax stopped and said, "Wait!" She walked back into Angel's office and found Doyle and Elle still staring at each other. "Achem, Elle? Time to go!"
so what do u all think??????? We'd really like to know
