Willow snapped out of whatever spell he had on her and began backing away.
"Darkness? What do you mean darkness? I'm light! Pale! Translucent!
There's no darkness here!"
Angelus stalked her, following every fidget while keeping his eyes locked on hers. "Are you calling me a liar?"
Her back hit the wall, leaving her stuck. "Well, it's not THAT farfetched you know, what with you being evil and all?"
Angel's hands landed on either side of her head, and he leaned in close to her face. "I wouldn't lie about darkness like yours."
Willow's brows furrowed in desperation, almost more concerned about proving him wrong than getting away and self-preservation. "But I'm NOT! I'm a good little girl! Always have been."
"Not yet, you're not, but it's there, just waiting for the right medium to come through." Angel lowered his lips to hers, not kissing her, but speaking against them. "And when that happens, Little Red, I'll be back for you." His lips brushed against hers in a kiss so gentle it threw Willow's brain into silence. When her eyes opened again, he was gone, and it felt as though he had taken a part of her stomach with him. She looked down, just to make sure-
The dream changed again, going from memory to vision once again. Angelus was in a cage, pacing like a big cat. When her vision cleared, he stopped and looked up, directly at her. 'I knew you were coming, Red,' he said to her without speaking. His eyes gestured to the camera. 'They've got that THING in a safe upstairs. You wouldn't be able to make sure they don't rape me with it again before you get here in corporeal form, now would you?'

"Will!" Xander's voice broke into her sleep. "Come on, we're stopping for food, I'm starved."
"Oh, okay, sounds good," the redhead said absently.
"Must have been some dream, you were smiling like the cat that caught the canary."
Willow shrugged. "I like cats."
Xander blinked. "Right. Okay."
"Xan, I'm going to use the ladies room, I'll meet you in there." Without waiting for a nod she took off out of the car, taking her bag with her. Once inside the truck stop, she made a beeline for the broom closet, did a quick silence spell on the door, and let herself in, locking it behind her.
She took a candle out of her bag, lit it, and took out her latest spell book. She was pretty sure what she needed was in here. She closed her eyes and when she opened them again, the book had found the correct page for her. Willow smiled reading the first paragraph on the page.
"'The long distance invisibility spell is useful when you've left home in a hurry and left some valuables out' blah blah, I hope this works."

AN:/ I keep forgetting to put a disclaimer up here! So here, big fat disclaimer for the whole damned story. I don't own this. The end. Thank you and good night.
AN2:/ (aka. The good one) Thanks for reviewing again you lovely people! I hope I can keep this up! My little writing gnome guy (my muse, so to speak) has been much more concerned with the originals lately, I think he's mad because the real season of Angel is falling way too easily into my hands (and the plot of this story) and he wants it to be more difficult for me, so he's distracting me until a new episode is aired. The little heathen! ANYWAY, keep reviewing, and check out my original stuff too, if you like this, my originals are better. *wink*
