GIFT
NOTE: I do not own these characters and I am only using them for the fun purposes of fan fiction. But I do (pretty much) own Skylar.
A/N: I'd like to give a shout out to my gal pal Gidgetgirl for the inspiration and for helping me to create the totally cool character in Skylar. Thanks Gidget! You're so cool! Oh, and you might want to take a look at Gidgetgirl's stories. They're, in a word, awesome! You also might want to check out stories by Balticwoman, Pyro Bear, and Lian. Three great young authors. J
Second A/N: This story is a total AU and is completely unconnected to my other stories. In this story one reason Angel went to L.A was because he (Angelus) sired a pregnant woman and killed her husband. The pregnant woman returned, still pregnant, and was one evil vampire. Angel and his friends (Buffy takes the place of Cordelia in this) and Connor stake her and save the baby. By the way, I don't know much about Buffy so there is no need to stone me if I make a mistake. I just like Angel and Buffy as a couple and I hate Cordelia right now. (Very much!) Also Connor is pretty young in this. He's about thirteen. (You'll find out why so no questions.)
CHAPTER 2Dawn came downstairs with a huge yawn that next morning. She and Buffy had come to LA when more and more destruction came there. Angel said that they could stay with him and the others as long as they wanted. The brown haired girl found her way into the hotel lobby. Angel was holding the baby in his arms. She was wearing a pair of Connor's old baby pajamas. Buffy was sitting next to Angel on a couch.
"Guys, what's going on?" Dawn asked. "What's with the baby?"
"While you were asleep last night this baby's mother was going on a little killing spree. We killed her, saved the baby, and now she's staying," Buffy summed up.
"Oh. OK," said Dawn cheerfully, sitting down as if nothing had happened.
"She's needs a name," said Angel. "We can't just call her "child" forever."
"How about Donna?" Fred suggested, walking downstairs. She'd overheard what Angel had said.
"No. Donna is a sweet name but I don't think it really describes her," said Buffy.
"Uh, what about Skylar?" Dawn chimed in, flipping through a magazine.
The others all stopped and looked at her. Dawn looked up from her magazine. She had no idea while they were all looking at her.
"What?"
"Dawn, what made you think of that?" asked Angel.
"I don't know. It's just off the top of my head," replied Dawn.
"Oh. Well, what do you think Angel?" asked Buffy.
"I think it's perfect," Angel replied. He looked at the baby. "Right, Skylar?"
Buffy, Dawn, and Fred looked at each other. Angel just seemed so happy around the baby. Why? They didn't really care. It was nice seeing Angel so happy and not having Angelus appear.
A/N: Thanks goes out to Pyro Bear for this great idea for a chapter. Thanks, Pyro. This was one great idea. Oh, and if another one of my on-line friends is out there then you should know that your name got an appearance. Just to let you know I'm think about ya! *Smiles*
Second A/N: Oh, you should know that Dawn is thirteen right now, too. Why? Well, it's because… … … gotcha! You didn't really think I was just going to tell you did you? You'll just have to keep reading and most of all, reviewing.
