(I changed my rule 3 reviews to get another chapter! Yeah well I know some of you are mad about Cordy's baby and I'm sorry! It's just puts something into the story. Well I hope you all like it.)
Connor was sitting by Rain's unconscious body. He stroked her face and she held his hand.
"Are you ok?" Connor kissed her forehead.
"Get out, please just get out." Rain looked away.
"But, Rain if happened before I met you."
"Why didn't you tell me you weren't a virgin?" Rain sat up.
"I didn't think it was that important. I'm really sorry." Connor grabbed her hands and kissed them.
"I love you, even though you're going to be a father and I'm not the baby's mother I want to be there for it." Rain held Connor's face in her small hands and kissed him sweetly.
Glass shattered everywhere and Cordy appeared with the beast. "Connor are you all right?" Angel ran into the room. "Cordy get out!" Angel growled.
"Need one thing first." Cordy smiled and the beast swung his sword at Angel cutting his stomach. "Thank you, goodbye." Cordy blew a kiss at Connor.
"Dad, are you ok?" Connor hurried to Angel.
"Oh my god! Troy I need you!" Kay yelled from the enter way of Mac and Rain's room.
Troy appeared. "I can't heal non-humans. I'm sorry." He went away again.
"What's going on?" Buffy and Spike ran into the room followed by Faith, Fred, Gunn, Marshall, Hailie, Ecks, Casey, Kyle, Mac, and Lorne.
"Oh Angel I'll get the first aid kit." Fred left the room and Gunn went with her.
"The beast." Rain's head fell. She came back up and took in a big breath. "Kay, Buffy, and me. Kay was holding Mac, we were screaming." Rain shook her head. "I was crying and Kay looked so scared."
"It's ok Rain, I'm not going to let anything hurt you." Connor sat down and hugged Rain.
"Are you two ok?" Angel asked as Kay attended to his cut with Fred's help.
"Yeah, are ok?" Connor looked at the small frame in his arms.
"No, I'm so scared. She's trying to take you away." Rain shook her head. She felt helpless, scared, and lonely even thought Connor was holding her.
"What do you mean?" Connor rubbed small circles on Rain's lower back.
"She's right, it's not yours." Kay finished bandaging Angel.
"What, how do you know?" Connor stopped.
"I reed her. It's some demon guy's." Kay touched Rain's shoulder. "Sweetie, it's going to be ok, Connor's not going to be a father."
"That poor child." Rain looked up into Connor's eyes. "It'll grow up with horrible parents."
"Shh... Maybe you should just rest." Connor laid Rain down slowly; he lay next to her and linked their fingers. Rain laid her head on his chest.
"Let's leave them alone." Angel whispered.
Everyone turned and left. "That baby, poor baby." Rain mumbled.
"Shh....it's ok. The baby has parents." Connor used his hand to stroke her face.
"Not very good ones, 1 and a half demon as its parents." Rain sighed nodding off.
"Just get some sleep." Connor kissed the top of her head.
"What if my vision comes true?" Rain closed her eyes.
"I'll protect you." Connor whispered.
A startling scream came from the room across the hall, which was Kay and Angel's. Rain and Connor both jumped up. Rain jumped at another scream coming from the down the hall. Connor beat Rain to the door.
"Where are you going?" Connor turned to look at her.
"To see what's wrong." Rain tried to get passed him.
"Not so fast." Connor grabbed her arm.
"Connor let go of me." Rain pushed away.
"Sorry sweetie, that's no my name it's Steven." He grinned evilly.
"What are you talking about?" Rain managed to get around him and opened the door.
"Get off!" Buffy yelled and ran down the hall.
"It's Angelus, he's back." Kay rushed out her door with Mac.
"Rain, it's Spike he's calling himself William the Bloody." Buffy grabbed the young slayers arm.
"They've lost their souls!" Kay yelled as the three ran down the hall.
"Oh, no." Tears streamed down Rain's face.
"Wait, Connor he'll try to fight Angelus we have to get him." Buffy turned around but Rain grabbed her arm.
"He's gone too." Rain sniffed.
"How's that possible?" Buffy was shocked but the 3 still continued down the hall.
"I want daddy!" Mac whined.
"Let's go." Rain started down the stairs to the lobby where Ecks, Faith, Marshall, Hailie, Casey, and Kyle were sitting listening to Gunn and Fred.
"Where's Angel?" Gunn stopped.
"We have to go." Rain went towards Ecks.
"Leaving the party so soon." Everyone turned to see William, Angelus, and Steven. "Come on I won't hurt you." Steven smiled.
"Stay away from her." Ecks formed a fireball in his hand.
William and Angelus stepped back. "No, Spike, Angel, and Connor are still in there somewhere." Rain grabbed Ecks's wrist.
"Listen to the little slayer." Angelus taunted. "She's wrong about Angel still being in here somewhere though." He laughed.
Rain slipped out a stake from the back of her pants. "Don't toy with me, because I may just believe you." She grinned while twirling the stake.
"Rain, you can't be serious?" Fred looked shocked.
"Buffy get a sword to kill Steven and Faith you better have a stake on you for William." The young slayer looked at the two older slayers.
"Got you back kid." Faith pulled out a stake.
Buff opened the weapons cabinet pulling out a sword. "You 3 would kill people you love?" Steven stepped back.
"The people we love are gone." Buffy joined the two slayers, Rain stood in the middle facing Angelus, Buffy stood facing Steven, and Faith faced William.
"No, you can't Angel, Spike, and Connor is still in there." Fred walked in front of the 3 slayers.
"You get in our way we'll do anything to move you." Faith glared.
"You can't you could wait until they've at least done something."
"Risk people's lives I don't thinks so. Fred move or you'll be no more." Rain spat.
"I'm sorry sweetie." Gunn grabbed her arm and pulled her out of the way. "I love you too much to let them kill you."
"So, you're going to let them kill Angel, Spike, and Connor?" Fred tried to pull away. "All of you are just going to sit there and let them kill people we know and love!" Tears fell from her eyes.
"Hello all, I'm glad to see it worked." Cordy walked into the Hyperion with the beast at her side.
"You bitch! You did this!" Fred screamed.
"Chill Fred, I don't think you're little slayers were going to kill them." Cordy laughed.
"Tell me why I shouldn't freeze you right now?" Kay glared setting Mac down.
"Angelus, William, and Steven will still be unsouled." Cordy smiled.
"Tell me, why I shouldn't kill you right now?" Tears flowed down Rain's cheek.
"O, um...how about because I'm carrying your boyfriend's baby." Cordy shook her head. "He would be devastated to know you killed..."
"It's not his!" Rain screamed.
"Where did you come up with that idea?" Cordy was stricken.
"I read you Cordy." Kay glared.
"Why the bloody hell am I standing her listening to you poofsters talk? I'm out, I'm going to find dinner."
"I hate to say it but I'm with William." Angelus and William starting walking.
"I don't think so, I brought you two back so you're not going anywhere." Cordy hissed.
"I don't take instructions, I do what I want, when I want." Angelus turned.
"Don't even try it!" Cordy boomed. "Now, Kay what gives you the right to tell them that this baby isn't his?"
"It's not and I'm not letting my son's life get ruined by a bitch liked you."
"By the way, where's Steven?" Fred asked looking around.
"Mate, had a good idea slip away while no one's looking." William laughed.
"Damn it! O, well goodbye." Cordy, the beast, Angelus, and William vanished.
"Where's Rain?" Faith noticed the young slayer missing.
"She must have followed Steven." Gunn shrugged.
"What if he hurts here?" Ecks started to leave the Hyperion.
"Don't kid, she'll be fine." Faith smiled.
************************************************************************
"I know you're following me." Steven turned around in the alley to find Rain.
"What are you doing?" Rain glared.
"Why are you so mad at me? I didn't do anything." Steven turned back around.
"Let's see you're in control of my soul mates body." Rain began to follow him again.
"Correct, a soul mate that means with or with out a soul I'm still yours." He turned to face her. "Why won't you go away?" He all of a sudden screamed. "Getting rid of the soul should have got rid of you." He grabbed his head.
"Face it, what you just said is true. You have to love me either way, because you gave me everlasting love meaning I'm yours and your mine forever." Rain looked down.
"You would love a guy with out a soul?" Steven pulled her chin up to look at him.
"If that person was you, then yes but I will get Connor back." Steven punched her across the face.
"No, you will not." He kicked her in the stomach.
"Face it, you can't kill me. Even with out your soul you still love me!" Rain yelled grabbing her stomach.
Steven ran into a warehouse and Rain ran after him. "Leave me alone!" He yelled as he ran. They flew up some steps to the second floor he turned to face her. "Go away before I hurt you." He walked towards her.
Rain kicked him and he flew backwards. "No, I'm not letting you hurt anyone." Rain walked over to him.
He got up slowly and punched her face then tripped her. "So, you're sacrificing your self." He kneeled down, grabbed her by the shirt, and looked into her eyes. "You're right I can't kill you but I can hurt you." He picked her up and threw her.
She stood up wobbling, coughing, and holding her stomach. "I don't care as long as you don't hurt anyone else." Rain walked slowly towards him.
Steven kicked her backwards as she landed she grunted. "Why don't you just give up?" He walked towards her.
"I don't give up, it's not my style." Rain stood up slowly, her lip was bleeding and bruises were forming on her face.
"I feel bad having to do this." He punched her and she stumbled backwards.
"Then why do you do it?" She gave him a cheerleading kick to the face and his chin flew up.
"I love you that's why." He looked at her with a grin.
"Tough love is that it?" Rain smiled.
"Yeah, that's it." Steven kicked her and she fell backwards breaking the window behind her as she was about to fall out he grabbed her arm and pulled her back into the warehouse. She fell to the ground with a thump. "Come on sweet cheeks, stand up." He bent down her cuts visible to his eyes.
Rain pushed herself up slowly, her arms wobbled. "I will win, in the end." She fell back down with a sigh.
Steven laughed and picked her up. "Sure you will, my Angel." He walked out of the warehouse.
"Where are you taking me?" She asked from in his arms.
"Back to the hotel, don't worry I'll be gone before any of them see you." He looked down at her.
"Why are you doing this?"
"As you and I said, I can't kill you which means I'm not going to let you die."
Rain reached up with her hand and touched his face. "That's why I love you, no matter who you are." Steven let her touch his face and then pulled away.
He went in the back way to the Hyperion making sure no one would see them, he took her to his room and laid her down on his bed. "I got to go but I'm sure I'll see you again." A minor lapse of judgment made him kiss her forehead but he pulled away quickly and he was gone.
Rain stood up slowly, walked into the bathroom looked at the mirror many cuts were visible now on her arms luckily only one on her face. She lifted her shirt slowly to see huge bruises on her stomach. She winced as she peeled off her clothes and climbed in the shower. Blood went down the drain as she stepped out wrapping a towel around her Buffy walked in.
"I thought you were back. I think you need an ice pack so I'll be back with that and the first aid kit."
"What not calling for Troy?" Rain smiled.
"No, unless you want him to heal you."
"Actually I don't, you didn't need him why should I?" Rain looked down. "Don't tell anyone else though."
"Of course not, I'll be back get dressed." Buffy walked out of the bathroom. Rain went back into Connor's room she kept some clothes in there because they all couldn't fit in her and Mac's room. She pulled out her blue pj pants and white tank. Buffy returned and handed Rain the ice pack.
"Show me, let me wrap it first then put the ice on it." Rain lifted up her shirt so Buffy could see her stomach. "Ouch, sit down." Buffy took out some wrap and began to tend to her stomach. "There put the ice on." Rain touched the ice to her stomach and winced. "What happened?"
"It was weird, first he beats the crap out of me but then he saves me from falling out the window."
"I think because Connor is more human that more of his soul side is there then Spike and Angel's." Buffy sat next to Rain.
"Also, the whole everlasting love thing." Rain smiled at the memory.
"I don't think anything could you pull you two apart." Buffy looked down.
"What's wrong B?" Rain stood up.
"I was just thinking, how much you're like a sister to me. When I saw you at first with all those cuts and bruises, I was thanking the powers to be that you were still alive. I couldn't lose you again Rain, you're like a sister to me. It will pain me to go back to Sunnydale with out you." Buffy stood and touched Rain's cheek.
"Thanks B, you're like a sister to me too. That's why I trust you not to tell anyone."
"I won't, get some sleep let the healing powers of the slayer take over." Buffy started to walk out.
"Tell Mac I'm going to sleep in here, I don't want her seeing me like this." Rain got into Connor's bed.
"Sure, goodnight Rain." Buffy turned out the light and closed the door.
"Goodnight B." Rain sighed sinking into sleep.
Buffy walked down the hall after telling Mac, Rain was sleeping in Connor's room. She slowly walked into her room, going straight to the bathroom she leaned over the toilet and threw up.
"Buffy, are you ok?" Kay knocked on her bedroom door.
"Yeah, can you come in though?" Buffy flushed the toilet.
"Sure, what do you need?" Kay walked in and Buffy walked out of the bathroom. Kay looked at her scrunching forehead. "No, that's impossible! You can't be, are you?" She rushed over towards Buffy.
"I am, you know I was thinking perfect timing what about you?" Buffy sat down on the bed.
"Buffy, he doesn't know does he?" Kay sat next to her.
"No, I was about to tell him when he lost it." Buffy sighed.
"Well, we can help each other we can be pregnant buddies. Would you like me too do what I did?" Kay stood up.
"What's that?"
"I put a protection spell on my stomach nothing can hurt it."
"I think I'll be fine. I'm going to tell everyone tomorrow, I just wasn't ready today." Buffy stood. "Thanks for listening though, I didn't expect this to happen." Buffy looked down.
"Spike, will love it. Don't worry we'll be married before they're both born." Kay rubbed her tummy.
"Yeah, in 2 months. We should start planning."
"Yeah, we should but not right now let's just get some sleep." Kay hugged Buffy.
"Don't worry, we'll get them back." Buffy whispered. "Even if I have to die for it to happen."
