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: My friends are just the best. I couldn't do this story without them. So thanks, guys.
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!)
CHAPTER 19"Buffy," Angel shook her. Buffy began to stir quickly. She opened her eyes. "Oh, thank God."
"Angel? What happened? Wait. Oh, my God! Skylar!" Buffy exclaimed.
Angel formed a grimace. "That son of a bitch took her away!"
"Oh, hell no!" Buffy stood up. "We're going after them."
"Well, that won't be easy." Buffy and Angel quickly looked behind them and saw Chad. "Not easy at all."
"Chad!" Angel exclaimed. "Can you bring Skylar back?!"
"Hold on. I have my ways of getting us there. But some things have to be explained," Chad replied.
"Get in," said Angel, heading over to the car. Buffy followed after him.
"Oh. I haven't ridden in one of these for a while," said Chad. "Can I play with the horn?"
Once Angel drove up in front of the hotel he and the others quickly raced inside. Lorne, Fred, and Gunn, were still downstairs. Now they were joined with Connor and Dawn. It was about three AM.
"Dad, where's Skylar?" Connor asked, when Angel and the others entered.
"She's gone! We have to get her back!" Angel replied.
"What? How—" Fred started.
"She was taken," Buffy broke in. "By some human demon and a bastard!"
"We've gotta get her back," said Gunn.
"And so we shall, people," said Chad. "But here's the thing. Skylar is a little… on the weak side. You might have noticed."
"You think?" Dawn muttered.
"Her powers are getting closer to her. Since she's a
beginner then that's going to hurt like hell," said Chad. "Has she healed
anybody lately?"
"Yeah, me," said Gunn.
"And she refilled a thing of popcorn," said Angel.
"And some pencils," said Dawn.
"What? She can't go using her powers at the beginning stages all loose and what not!" said Chad.
"What not?" Lorne repeated.
"I was trying to be dramatic. Hello! I'm dating an angel of death. You think I'm happy?" said Chad. "Well, I am in most areas."
"Would you focus?!" Angel snapped. "What the hell is happening with Skylar?"
"Aren't we a moody monster?" said Chad. "Listen. You're daughter's pains will only stop if you have the cure. So when I zap us all inside the portal, I want someone to go get the cure in a separate direction. It is found inside of the portal."
"All right," said Buffy. "Who's going to do that?"
"I volunteer," said Lorne, raising his hand.
"So do I," said Fred.
"Me, too," said Gunn.
"Good. The rest of us will look for the kid," said Chad.
"Weapons," said Angel, heading over to the cabinet. He took out a huge sword for himself.
Buffy went over to the cabinet next. She also took a sword. Fred and Gunn both took crossbows. Connor and Dawn took one-sided axes. Lorne took a handheld ax. Chad took a minute to decide. He finally took a two-sided ax.
"Let's go get Sky," said Angel.
"Right, captain," said Chad, saluting.
All of a sudden they found themselves out of the hotel. They were standing on what looked like a mountain. Angel and Buffy walked out to ledge and looked down. It was a long way down.
"Uh, what just happened?" Gunn asked.
"I should have told you how good I am at this stuff," said Chad. "All right. Gunn, Fred, and green man, you all look in a cave for the Restorer Energizer. It's a sparkling pond filled with sky blue water. It shines brightly!"
"What do we put the water in when we find it?" Fred asked. Chad took a small beaker out of his pocket and handed it over to Fred.
"This stuff works on Restorers very quickly. You only need a sip of it," said Chad.
"All right," said Gunn. "Fred, Lorne, let's go."
"Good luck," said Lorne to the others as he followed Fred and Gunn in a different direction.
"Where do we go to find Sky?" asked Connor.
They suddenly heard a familiar terrified scream. "Uh, follow that," said Chad.
"Come on!" Angel yelled, running off towards the scream.
"Angel," Buffy called after him. The others followed the vampire and the slayer towards the scream.
A/N: Yes, it's short. Sorry about that. But I'm a little bit stressed. (Compassion, please?) Reviews would really help me out of this.
