Chapter 11: Tasks distribution.
Faith was fiddling with some medical stuff waiting the doctors had done, she had filled the paper, but that was difficult when the patient didn't exist. Well she had made up. She put back what she had in her hand when she saw Connor coming back. That made three hours she was waiting, the night had fallen.
- "So?" she asked.
- "So what?" he replied.
- "Is it finished, can we go?"
- "Yeah"
They leaved the hospital, Faith went toward the car but Connor took another direction.
- "where you go?"
- "I gonna walk"
Great thought Faith. She followed him. They walked in the street silently. Faith followed Connor wondering where he was going. She hoped he didn't gonna go in a fight because with his shoulder that wasn't very smart. Suddenly Faith heard a fight noise apparently Connor had heard it too because he was going toward it. She caught him up and went front of him.
- "You wait me here"
- "Certainly not" said Connor passing beside her.
Faith sighed and followed. They arrived in an alley. Gunn was fighting with a vampire who seemed stronger than usual. Connor took a stake under his pant's leg's pocket. Faith astonished to see that the kid had always stakes on him, she was the slayer and hadn't stakes always on her. Connor threw himself in the fight. Faith rolled her eyes and went too. She pushed him and gripped the vampire. When Connor went for stake the vamp Faith screamed.
- "Wait!!"
- "Faith?" said the vampire.
- "it's Spike" sighed Faith.
- "And we don't kill him cause......?" Gunn asked.
- "Because he has a soul" replied Faith.
- "Damn it's fashion or what?!" Connor said disappointed.
Another vampire with a soul, he hated that, what he gonna hunt if all the vampires gained a soul.
- "So why has he attacked me?" Gunn asked looking Spike still in a defensive posture.
- "It's you have attacked me" threw Spike.
- "What are you do here?" Faith asked him.
- "I help Buffy, you?"
- "I help Angel, or it's him who helps me" answered Faith.
- "Ah, cause he knows Angel, pfffff" sighed Connor.
Angel knew the whole world, that was crazy. Connor felt prisoner in Angel's world.
- "yes, I know him as well, even since hundred years"
- "Yeah, I'd be not pride of it at your place" Gunn said.
- "Well we gonna come back" Faith said "If we back too late Angel gonna be worried"
- "Why?" Gunn asked, he saw the bloody T-shirt of Connor "Oh, that gonna bump into me again"
- "Oh, stop to say bullshit" Connor said him.
Spike was looking them wondering if he was supposed to go discreetly or say it loud like 'Ciao, see ya later!'. But something was keeping pined him down. He didn't know what. Hum.....that was the blood's smell, the one of the kid, he could smell it like if he was covered of it. That was familiar, pleasant.
- "What you don't like to be a daddy's boy"
- "As much as you don't like to be a boss' doggy" Connor said back.
Spike was lost, he didn't know that Angel would surround him with so many people. He couldn't take his eyes off the boy who noticed it.
- "What?!" Connor said scornfully to Spike.
- "Nothing I gonna go"
- "Well, if you're looking after B she's at Angel's, so you can follow us" Said Faith.
- "What?! You rave!!" Connor said her "It's a vampire!!"
- "Like Angel" Faith replied.
- "It's not the same, just look" Connor said looking disdainfully Spike.
- "That's sure" said Spike "And we can know who you are?" pointing Gunn and Connor.
- "Gunn, Connor" Faith said.
- "Yes, and not for your pleasure" Gunn said "I think I have read something about him in the 'how understand Angel's past in case a mad guy comes back' case, well here we are"
- "Why? What has he special, except his soul?" Connor asked.
Spike continued focus on Connor then looked down incessantly, he breathed the blood's smell. That was a blood by which he felt attracted, like Drusila's attracted him, made him dark.
- "He killed two slayers" continued Gunn, Connor glanced at Faith. Faith was stronger than him and almost equal to Angel this Spike must be very strong "And he had tortured Angel there is four years for a ring" Spike remained impassive still obsessed by Connor. Connor looked him and raised one eyebrow, he too had tortured Angel something he had in common with the vampire.
- "Yeah, well, pass the CV" Faith said "I guess everyone here tried to kill Angel. But it's in past"
- "Not for me I'm just waiting an idea" kidded Connor.
Spike knew for Faith, but he wondered for the other two, why and how they had attempted to kill Angel. And why Angel worked with a teen who had the age to just out of high school. Certainly a kid he had met, like the other. Angel was the ASPCA, a true lil' mummy. Well if them all had hated Angel and tried to kill him, he wouldn't felt so disoriented.
- "Well, I follow you" He said.
They were walking toward the hotel; the two boys had let Faith beside the vampire. Connor was a little in back.
- "There is too many vampires in my life" he said, his hands in his pocket.
He was really tired because of the bleeding so he dragged his feet.
- "Oh, stop! You pass all your nights to search them" Gunn said.
- "Yeah, for kill them, not for make buddy-buddy" replied Connor.
- "Why you work for Angel so?" Spike asked not very sure if he was in position to ask something.
- "I don't work for him, I live with him, subtle difference"
- "So why came lived with him?"
- "I didn't CAME he obliged me" Spike didn't understand anymore.
- "For protect you and it's normal" added Gunn like for convince the youngster.
Ah, thought Spike, this kid is special, he had felt it immediately, it's for that Angel kept an eye on him. Something in the blood like Dawn....

Buffy was sat behind the counter reading the copies. Angel and Cordelia at the computer. Buffy hated see them like that that irritated her.
- "ha! Cinox, it's a private club in this street, a call girl stuff who dance on the table and all for the rich senior managements, that doesn't go with the poor demon we saw"
- "That depends of what that hides" Angel said "Who's the owner?"
- "Humm.....Dowel McFeegan, a big shot of the town, he has a building in the center, I wanted to putt him in my 'rich, powerful and cute' list but he is too ugly" Angel threw a stare at her "Oh, you, you are cute and powerful, but not rich, but it's not a big deal, I mean I don't care anymore"
Buffy looked up, oh okay, she wasn't stupid there was something between those two. Anyway she had something to do, not the time to think about; she'll have the time to puke later. At this moment somebody entered in the hotel, Angel raised his head and opened his eyes wide.
- "Spike?!!" Buffy turned back quickly panicked.
Angel got up fast and rushed catching Connor's arm, he pulled him behind him.
- "Ow!!" made Connor "You're not happy to see a buddy"
- "What are you doing here?" Angel asked with a very calm ton that made it more terrifying.
- "He's with me" Buffy said coming between them.
- "With you, what do you mean?"
- "Well, he helps me that wasn't provided but......"
- "How he can help you?" indirectly to Spike by a look.
Spike didn't want to say 'I have a soul' that was ridiculous especially front of Angel. Nobody wanted hurt Angel, or maybe Connor but he didn't understand the tension of the moment. Angel fought evil for recovered his soul, but definitively not by a cursed, and Spike had one by luck. Connor didn't get the jalousie and the anger that released in Angel, and that was good if not he would have pushed it a little more.
- "he has a soul" Faith volunteered for be the bird of ill omen, whatever, anyway people weren't crazy of her. Angel looked Spike who went closer of Buffy hiding behind her. Angel frowned looking Buffy who suddenly had her mouth very dry.
- "Whatever, we need to find Dawn, the cockfight can wait" Faith said making everybody went back in earth.
- "Faith's right" Buffy had never imagine she could say that. Faith would be happy if she hadn't known that Buffy said that just for change the subject.
- "Yeah, in this time that boils in the streets, the kids start to be afraid, it seems that all the kidnappings had been done by the same guys and that those guys are prowling for the research of their new prey. It's for that when I saw this one here I thought he knew something and I can smell a vamp miles away"
- "Gunn, look there" Angel said going toward the counter where were the copies "Are there names you know?"
Gunn approached and read the name on the copies, there were nine or thirteen names, well not a lucky number.
- "yeah, almost all are kids of the streets, where did you get that?"
- "At the cop's in charge of the investigation"
- "There was a cop who were investigated, Ann told them but we wouldn't believed that they gonna move their asses"
- "Yeah, well, he did and so much that now he's dead, killed"
- "Oaw" Gunn said "A cop dies for drops-out, the world has changed without I realized"
- "That's for sure" murmured Angel throwing a little look to Spike then to Buffy.
Spike had tortured Angel more than once and Spike was stupid even human he was stupid.
- "Apparently, the cop thought that was link, one people made the kidnappings and he takes homelessness cause that don't make people worried. The cop had a contact, a witness, but there is just his given name. But I guess it's a hobo cause he asked money and cause of the address"
- "I don't see the link"
- "It's the address of a bridge" replied Angel "I gonna go, later"
- "Me and Buffy gonna go at this club the Noxic"
- "Cinox" corrected Angel.
- "Yeah, if you want, and we gonna take info about the guy" finished Cordy.
- "Oh, the Cinox, heaven on earth, music, chicks and money" Lorne said going downstairs.
- "Do you know this place?" Cordelia asked.
- "Enough for know that you can't enter without some changes"
- "What changes?" Buffy asked.
- "Come on, I go with you and we gonna pass at a friend's first she works there" he took the two girls by their shoulder and leaved.
- "I gonna patrol around, ask questions, if those guys are in the streets like some squatters say, I should fall on them if they take me for a homeless"
- "I go with you" Connor said.
- "No" Angel cut.
Spike stayed here dumbfounded, there was something wrong.
- "You said, I will help"
- "And Im here, Spike too" Faith said.
- "Oh guys!" Gunn said "The plan it's me walk in the streets ALONE the guys take me for a homeless and try to kidnap me and I fight them and they tell me where the kids are, and with some luck the lil' Summers is there. So if Im with a slayer, a vampire and a lil' pseudo vamp......"
- "Hey!!" Connor cut.
- "......they won't"
- "We can make teams of two" Faith said.
- "you forget Connor is wounded" Angel said.
- "Exactly" Gunn said.
- "Don't worry" Faith said.

He caught a tinted jar and held it against his chest.
