**Spike**
Chapter 2
"Uhh, the time?" Aya rolled over to look at her clock. "Oh great…9am" She turned
back on her pillow and looked up.
"I'm am actually scared about this whole Mune thing" She looked at her ring.
"But Masa will protect me" She sat up and walked to her window.
She walked to her closet and got a pair of white shorts and a blue tank top, she put her
tennis shoes on and walked outside.
"Great day its gonna be" She began to jog. She went in to town and saw a small café
and walked in.
"Good morning" The woman at the counter smiled.
"Hi, I was wondering if you know where the grocery store is?" Aya walked towards
her catching her breath.
"Are you knew?"
"Yea I just moved here….but not for long, I'm on vacation" Aya smiled.
"Oh I see, well the closest store is Ralf's…it's a few blocks from Limon." The woman
answered and Aya nodded.
"Thanks" Aya walked out of the coffee shop
she jogged to Ralf's. She walked through the sliding doors.
"Aya?" Came a voice from behind her.
"Ein?…..hey what's up?" Aya looked at her new friend.
"Nothing, I work here in the mornings" He answered holding cereal boxes.
"Oh" Aya smiled.
"So why you here?" Ein asked.
"I wanted to get breakfast, I didn't have dinner last night because of a rude interruption
so I'm kinda hungry." Aya looked down in embarrassment.
"No worry, I get of in 20 minutes, if you want we can get b-fast together" Ein
suggested and Aya nodded.
"Sure" She smiled. "I'm gonna run and come back in 20 minutes, ok?" She looked at him.
"No prob" He answered.
******
"So how did you get in to this whole vampire thing?" Aya sipped her coffee and Ein
ate his breakfast.
"Well an old friend…..his name was Giles, see my mom was a Slayer….her name was
Buffy, but she died when I was 4 so I don't remember, after a while Giles also died so
Angel played like my father for a while…..so
I was like his partner but not when it comes to killing, I mean I bagged a few vamps but
I mostly do the reading and translating
thing…my Latin is getting good" Ein joked and Aya smiled.
" That's interesting" She finished.
"What about you?" Ein looked at Aya.
"I became a slayer at age 5, my first watcher was killed trying to protect me so I got
Luke a couple of years later."
"Five!?" Ein said surprised.
"Yeah, it has to do with my ring….but truly I don't know much about it, my mom said it
was a gift from somewhere and It belonged to me, but I don't remember much of it…I
was young" Aya shrugged.
"Ohh" Ein smiled. "How old are you?" Ein asked changing the subject.
"16" Aya answered. "How about you?"
"17" He answered happily.
"Cool, I guess its nice to have someone around my age to talk to about my little Slayer
problems." Aya stood up as did Ein.
"I'm glad too, Angel and Spike can be boring sometimes….especially when it comes to
talking about girls…..I don't think they care…" Ein laughed.
"Well Luke is boy crazy….it gets on my nerves" Aya and Ein left the money on the
table and walked out.
"So did you translate the script?" He asked.
"No, the council is sending us the book so we can, it will be a few days" Aya answered
and Ein nodded.
"So what are you and Luke doing today?" Ein asked.
"Well, nothing until nightfall….we might go to the grave yard to see if there is
anything we can find something…but for now were free." Aya smiled.
"Cool, hey do you Wanna go to 6 flags with me, I mean its only an hour drive from
here and I think you should enjoy U.S.of.A while you're here, I mean it wound fun for you two."
Ein suggested.
"Oh wow…that would be cool" Aya smiled happily. "Hey I will call Luke now"
Aya took her cell phone out of her pocket and dilled a number.
"So you got international phones?" Ein asked.
"No we got cell phones when we came to L.A.X we needed them so we
got two for the summer." Aya answered and Luke picked up on the other end.
"Girl, get some clothes on….were gonna go and have some fun" Aya said happily.
"Yeah, Ein is taking us to an amusement park." Aya said and a happy scream came from
the other end.
"Ok….I will, yeah at the apartment" Aya smiled and the two hung up.
"I will take you home" Ein smiled and the two walked back to the Ralph's parking lot
and got in to his car.
"1234 E. Alden" Aya said and Ein drove away.
******
"OH WOW!!" Luke jumped up and down holding a big bear.
"You won"
"Yeah the bear is bigger than her" Aya arched her eyebrow, she grabbed Luke's
hand and than Ein's. "Lets go to the twister" Aya pointed to a huge role coaster.
"Wow….err I might barf" Luke complained.
"Tough it out" Aya drug the two to the line.
"Like little kids" Ein said looking at Aya's big smile.
"How long have we been here" He asked.
"Who cares" Aya and Luke said at the same time.
"Its almost 6.…it's getting late." Ein looked at his watch.
"Yeah, we should do this ride and leave" Luke agreed. The three didn't wait long
until it was there turn.
"Ok get in" The woman who worked there helped them on to the seats and put the
think over there heads. Luke took a deep breath and the ride began to move forward
slowly and began to ascend up until it stopped and
with lightning speed it flew forward.
"Wow….AHHHH COOL" Aya screamed holding on. Luke closed her eyes and Ein
screamed. The ride went for a minute and a half and slowed down. As they were
pulling in to the stop zone Ein looked at Aya.
"Your ring" He said and with a worried face Aya looked at her hand.
"Oh shit" She looked at the car in front of them.
"Its glowing" Aya looked around here.
"We need to get off" Luke said to the two in front of her.
"Hey hurry" Aya screamed tot the workers. After a moment they were off and the
three ran through the crowd.
"Shit!" Aya looked to Ein.
"You two go this way and I will go over here" Aya and the two split up. "Great,
a lot of people and this thing…..what a place, and I was having fun" She looked at
her ring and saw it was glowing brighter, she walked
behind a closed booth and released her sword.
"There you are" She looked to the dark figure that was standing behind a tree.
She moved closer and saw the figure standing was dead.
"Shit" The corpse fell to the ground and Aya ran in to the house of mirrors.
"Come out!" She looked around, she saw a figure in the mirrors.
"Just like the movies" She smirked and looked behind her.
"Ahhh!!" Came a scream from further in to the mirror room. Aya ran in and saw a
woman dead on the floor she looked at her carefully and saw her eyes were ripped out.
"No fangs….so a demon" Aya looked to the mirror and saw a hideous monster walk passed.
"What are you?" She screamed and the monster laughed.
" Your worst nightmare" He said walking to her.
"Eye Balls?" Aya smiled.
"No!" The monster ran towards her and with no effort Aya set the sword in his stomach.
"Sorry, but that's my line…..I now this wont kill you so you better tell me who sent
you here." Aya jabbed the sword deeper, the monster grunted.
"The mistress" He said grabbing her sword and pulled it out of him.
"Ahhh, you and your little vamp friends are gonna die" He looked to his left.
"No I hate VAMPIRES……AND YOU ARE GONNA WISH YOU NEVER SAID
THAT!!!" Aya swung her sword cutting his head of.
"I kill Vamps and I kill you" She dismissed her sword and looked at Luke and
Ein who were running towards her.
"Ewwee" Luke looked at the body.
"What kind of monster is it?" Ein asked. Aya shrugged.
"it's a dead monster now" Aya smiled looking at her ring.
"We better tell Angel" Ein said and the three left.
******
"I cant find it" Angel flipped in his book. Aya walked towards him.
"He worked for the Mistress" Aya looked at him.
"So he was after us" Ein and Luke looked at the two.
"I think so" Aya answered.
"Ok, so they know what we do" Luke rolled her eyes.
"Oh great so there stalkers now" Ein sat down.
"Here!" Angel stood up.
"A Sulkin demon, he eats human eyes and that sees what his pray saw," Angel
stood up.
"Ok that's great" Aya looked to the door.
"Hey, I think we better head to the grave yard" Spike walked in through the
door and looked the five.
"Why" Angel asked.
"I saw this woman walking in to a tomb, I think she's possessed, but I could
be wrong" Spike sat on the couch.
"She was bringing a box, I figured I would come here and tell you before
I went to check it out." He finished.
"Ok Spike and I will go" Angel looked at Aya.
"I Wanna go, I mean this is my mission" Aya protested.
"Ok" Spike agreed. Aya got up and looked at Ein and Luke.
"No worries, we will stay here and see exactly why the thing was after us."
Luke gave her a solute.
"Thanks" Aya Spike and Angel left closing the door behind them.
"I don't trust that Spike guy" Luke looked at Ein.
"I didn't ether when I first met him, but he grew on me….he's a great
vampi…..uh…….I mean guy"Ein stopped and Luke looked at him.
"What?" She stood up.
"Don't tell Aya" Ein went after her.
"He's a vampire……Spike…..HE'S THE ENEMY" Luke walked to the door.
"You saw Aya's ring….and it doesn't glow around him, he's good…..he has a soul"
Ein grabbed her hand and stopped her from walking out.
"A vampire with a soul?, so I guess Angelus has one too?" Luke shoot Ein a dirty look.
"You knew?" Ein let go of her arm.
"yeah….I did" Luke walked back in to the room.
"Ok…well at least I don't have to explain that detail." Ein sat on the couch. Luke
looked at him.
"How did you know?" Ein asked.
"I do read" Aya shot at him. "Especially about a vampire who carves a cross on
the left cheek of his victims……besides that I need to know if I can trust you"
Luke looked in to Ein's eyes.
"Yes…I promise Angel and Spike wont hurt you or Aya" Ein looked back.
"Ok….well than I wont tell Aya….but sooner or later Aya will know" Luke said
and Ein nodded.
"Lets hope we can explain before that happens" Ein finished and Luke shrugged.
********
"There look" Spike pointed to the woman that was standing in front of a large tomb.
"Why she just standing there?" Aya looked at Angel and he shrugged walking out
from behind the tree.
"A little late to be outside?" He smiled and the woman turned around.
"A man…..a vampire?" She said as if to faint. A cold laugh came from behind her.
"Well, well" Her voice was crisp and beautiful.
"Who is there?" Angel looked. A girl in a white long dress walked out in front of him.
Back behind the bushes Aya and Spike watched.
"I will go now, you stay there" Spike walked out and Aya released her sword.
"No I go too" She looked at him and Spike rolled his eyes and shied.
Angel looked at the beautiful girl standing in front of him as if he was mesmerized.
"Angel!" Spike walked to him with Aya behind.
"A slayer?" The girl said calmly. "I thought you were alone" She looked at
Angel.
"Hey snap out of it!" Aya bumped Angel and he fell to the ground.
"What did you do to him you bitch?" Spike was about to transform but he
held back. Aya jumped and was to attack the girl but the woman got in front and
Aya stabbed her instead.
"Damnit!!" Aya cursed looking at the girl.
"Who are you?" Spike asked and the girl walked up to him and kissed him,
Aya tried attacking her again but with no effort the girl smacked her away.
"Spike NO!!" Aya yelled at him and Spike smacked the girl to the ground.
"You ok?" Spike helped Aya up. But before they could go after the girl she was gone.
"Great….she is gonna be a problem" Spike walked to Angel and looked at him.
"Hey get up" He smacked his face but no response.
"Is he gonna be ok?" Aya asked and Angel picked him up and over his shoulder.
"Yeah, I think so….we better get back before that woman comes back."
Spike and Aya walked back out of the graveyard.
********
"Back soon" Luke helped Spike take Angel to his bed.
"Yea, This seductive chick put some love spell on our Angel here" Spike explained.
"She was working me too….but Aya got me to snap out" Spike looked back.
"He will be fine, the spell is temporary…..only to distract him for a while….he should
be fine when he wakes up" Ein looked in the book.
"So who was she?" Aya asked and Spike shrugged.
"I doubt she's the Mistress but we need to watch for her" Spike looked back
and Angel grunted.
"Angel?" Luke looked down and smiled. "Welcome back to the reality world"
She smiled and Angel sat up.
"I felt trapped….I thought I was never getting out" He rubbed his head.
"It was nice though" He looked up.
"Great" Spike shot him a sarcastic look.
"So?" Angel asked.
"She's tough" Aya answered.
"Ok than……."
"Yeah"
"lets think of a strategy" Ein looked at the four in front of him.
"What do you have planned?" Luke asked.
"well…….nothing yet" He smiled. Spike and Aya rolled there eyes.
"You don't mind if I throw you out the window" Spike walked towards Ein and he backed away.
"Down boy" Luke looked at Spike.
" I am going back to see if I can figure out why she was there" Spike walked to the door.
"Hey….no" Aya walked after but he was already gone.
"Leave him…..he's kinda hard headed, nothing can get through to him" Angel looked at
Aya and she shrugged.
"Ok so he's gonna get him self killed…..ok I'm cool with that" She sat on the couch
and looked at Luke.
"You guys should stay here tonight" Ein suggested.
"Ok" Luke and Aya nodded.
"To be safe" Angel finished.
********
Spike walked through the graveyard looking at the gloom and death around him, he
lit a cigarette and sat on top of a grave stone.
"Look, what ever you want your not getting it, as long as I am here your out of luck
" Spike said to the open air. He shied. "No one" He stood up and smiled, he looked at the
tomb and walked away.
"You are not done, are you?" Spike threw the cigarette on the ground and stepped on it.
*********
"GOOD MORNING!!!" Luke looked over Aya who was trying to get the pillow over her head.
"Get up you wanker, it's almost noon" Spike looked at Aya who was on the floor.
"What?" Aya sat up rubbing her eyes.
"You need food!" Luke gave Aya a tray full of food.
"Ok?" Aya arched an eyebrow. "Why the happiness all of a sudden?"
"Well, the book came in earlier than expected and I translated a small part of the
scroll, but there is a sentence that I cant make out so Angel is gonna try to help" Luke smiled.
"Oh joy" Aya rolled her eyes.
"You should be happy….that means we will be able to find Mune" Luke scolded.
"What ever" Aya began to play with her food.
"Hey!" Spike jumped and looked at the door and rolled his eyes. Ein walked in to the house.
"Ever heard of knocking you brat?"
"Sorry Spike" Ein smiled. "Look what I found" Ein held up a book.
"What?"
"History of the dark masters" He threw it at Aya.
"OK?….Where did you get this?"
"Giles" He said proudly.
"Giles??" Spike chocked looked at him in an instance.
"Yeah….well, not directly but he was a great watcher and he left a lot of books with my
mother that he personally wrote and also books watchers before his time wrote"
"Oh" Aya smiled opening the book.
"The Master?" She looked up.
"Don't know" Ein shrugged.
"The Anointed One?" Aya flipped trough the book.
"Oh yeah…the annoying one" Spike smirked and Aya looked up confused..
"What?"
"Never mind" Spike looked away.
"Long story" Angel was heard and Spike jumped again.
"You people need to knock" He shied irritated.
"This is MY house" Angel pointed to him self.
" Well, the book doesn't say" Angel set the book on the couch.
"This one has no info on the Mistress only the Master" Aya set her book down as well.
"The master?" Angel looked at Ein and Spike.
"Smarty over here was digging in his attic" Spike stood up.
"Where?" Angel looked at Ein.
"Well, I kinda found my moms old books….that was the only one which was in English"
He smiled and Angel grabbed the book, he looked at it and a sad smile came across his face.
"I think I will hold on to this" He looked at the others and Aya caught his sadness
but decided not to say anything.
"Ok" She smiled. Angel walked in to this bedroom closing the door behind him.
He stared at the book in his hands.
"Her diary" He chuckled. "I wonder how Ein got his hands on that thing?" He walked
over to a safe and opened it.
"Better to hold on to this" He set it in there and closed the door spinning the lock.
"Yo, quit logging around……..reading Buffy's diary and come" Spike peeked through
the door.
"I will" Angel turned around and walked towards Spike, but the albino blonde haired
cutie stooped him with his finger on Angels shoulder.
"Your not the only one who misses the Buff but we need to get over it, it's been
14 years and we cant, well…." Spike looked away. "We need to worry about Aya and
the Mune now" Spike finished and Angel set a
hand on his shoulder.
"I will" Angel smiled and walked past Spike.
"OK" Spike turned around. "He took that lightly" He said with sarcasm in his
voice. In the living room Aya was out of her bed and was folding her sleeping bag.
"We better go" Luke looked at Spike, Angel and Ein and the three nodded.
"Rest up, I have a feeling tonight will be a thrill" Angel smiled.
"Yeah" Aya nodded with a smile.
The two girls left a few minutes later and Spike shied. Angel looked at him.
"What's wrong?"
"Her" Spike walked to the refrigerator and grabbed some blood out of the
freezer, he opened the microwave and set the bag of blood in it.
"What's wrong with her" Ein looked at Spike.
"She's a child" Spike turned around. "It hurts" He looked down.
"What hurts?"
"The fact that……..just forget about it" Spike took the blood out and bit in to
the bag sucking the red liquid out like it was a Ice cone.
********
"Hey guys" Aya sat on the wall entrance to the graveyard. Spike jumped.
"Will you quit that!" Spike looked up. Angel laughed. "What's so funny?" Spike
scolded.
"You" Angel pushed Spike aside. Aya jumped off the wall and followed the two in.
"Well where are they?" Aya asked but no answered came from the two guys. A
small sound was heard in the bushes, but no worries it was only w small black cat.
"Damn ugly thing" Spike cursed.
"Why are you so jumpy?" Aya asked and Spike gave her a mean look.
"Because you bloody people are to damn quiet and it scares me" He aid shifting
his shoulders.
"Hey!" Angel yelled and a person stopped in a distance, Aya looked at the vile
twisted face and her sword began to glow.
"Oh looked" Aya smirked, Spike looked at her. Aya ran to the vampire and stabbed
him in the chest.
"Is it just me or is it when her sword is out she looks evil?" Spike looked at
Angel and he just shrugged. Aya turned around and smiled at Spike and Angel.
"Behind you!" Angel yelled and Aya stabbed the creature and than the next. In
short time the three were surrounded by vampires.
"A walk in the park" Aya smiled and Spike twisted his eyebrows.
"Are you mad?" He looked at her as if she has gone insane. Aya gave him a faint
smile and began to attack the vampires at full speed, what was in fact fast. Angel
looked at her at the same time he killed two vampires.
After a short time the battle was over and Aya dusted her hands.
"Wow" Spike and Angel stared at Aya.
"What?"
"you sure a strong" Angel smiled surprisingly.
"For humans you two really are strong too" Aya looked round, Angel and Spike
looked away as if they were hiding some secret or just didn't hear her.
"Come on" Aya looked at them and the three walked away.
"Se ya" Angel smiled and Aya walked away from the two.
********
"Back!" Aya walked trough the front door of the apartment and Luke greeted
the 16 year old.
"So what's for dinner?" Aya dropped her stake on the table.
"Chicken" Luke answered reading a book.
"So?" Aya looked at the blonde.
" I'm still trying to figure out what 'lucuse gureil kansa sutca diem' means"
Luke looked up.
"Still no luck" Aya sat on the chair.
"Nope" Luke shied. Aya set her hand on her cheek and smiled.
"Do you like Angel?" Aya smiled and Luke set the book down.
"Yeah he's nice" Luke answered.
"No I mean like, like him" She went on.
"He is hot, but not my type…..I'm more in to the day types" Luke smiled and
set her book back up.
"Ok" Aya sat back looking bored.
" I'm gonna go to se if Ein has anything" Aya stood up.
"That's a good idea" Luke agreed. Aya walked out of the house and down the
street. She looked around and then at her ring.
"No harm no foul" She said and kept on walking. After a short while she came
to Ein's door. Aya knocked and a lady opened the door.
"Hey" Aya smiled looking at Ein who was behind her.
"Hey, err Mom this is my friend Aya, she's visiting Sunny all the way from
Japan" Ein introduced her to his step mom.
"Oh that's nice, please come in" The older woman smiled and Aya walked in.
"So um, do you want something to drink?" The woman asked and Aya shoo her
head.
"No thanks" Aya smiled and looked back at Ein. "Anything?"
"Yeah come with me" Aya and Ein walked up the stairs and he pulled a string
that took them in to the attic.
"Here" Ein pointed to the library of books. "None in English or Latin except
a few and they held no information" Ein shrugged.
"Which ones look helpful?" Aya looked at the mess.
"I don't know, they all are numbered so I cant tell"
"Maybe these books have no information on our Mistress" Aya made a point.
"Yeah but the script" Ein looked at Aya.
"What is the scripts saying so far?" Aya looked at him with a scared face.
"If its that important to translate that, there must be something wrong." Ein looked at the girl.
"You better sit down" Ein looked at Aya and they sat down on the floor.
"So far it says, 'For the one who holds the key, death shall come to the one she
loves'…..MasaMune is the key, and the message goes to the holder which is you or
the Mistress" Ein finished.
"It did say 'her'…..so I guess" Aya looked away. "But it means nothing now, I mean
we haven't gotten the real reason yet….well the real message, only that small passage
" Aya smiled as if she was not affected at all. Ein nodded.
"I guess you are right"
"So now what?" She stood up and he did the same.
"Well, we should go see Angel" Ein suggested and the two walked out of the attic.
"If anyone knows best….well it's him" Ein looked back and helped Aya down the stairs.
"Ok to Angels it is" She smiled and Ein pushed the stairs back up.

"Uhh, the time?" Aya rolled over to look at her clock. "Oh great…9am" She turned
back on her pillow and looked up.
"I'm am actually scared about this whole Mune thing" She looked at her ring.
"But Masa will protect me" She sat up and walked to her window.
She walked to her closet and got a pair of white shorts and a blue tank top, she put her
tennis shoes on and walked outside.
"Great day its gonna be" She began to jog. She went in to town and saw a small café
and walked in.
"Good morning" The woman at the counter smiled.
"Hi, I was wondering if you know where the grocery store is?" Aya walked towards
her catching her breath.
"Are you knew?"
"Yea I just moved here….but not for long, I'm on vacation" Aya smiled.

"Aya?" Came a voice from behind her.
"Ein?…..hey what's up?" Aya looked at her new friend.
"Nothing, I work here in the mornings" He answered holding cereal boxes.
"Oh" Aya smiled.
"So why you here?" Ein asked.
"I wanted to get breakfast, I didn't have dinner last night because of a rude interruption
so I'm kinda hungry." Aya looked down in embarrassment.
"No worry, I get of in 20 minutes, if you want we can get b-fast together" Ein

"OH WOW!!" Luke jumped up and down holding a big bear.
"You won"
"Yeah the bear is bigger than her" Aya arched her eyebrow, she grabbed Luke's
hand and than Ein's. "Lets go to the twister" Aya pointed to a huge role coaster.
"Wow….err I might barf" Luke complained.
"Tough it out" Aya drug the two to the line.
"Like little kids" Ein said looking at Aya's big smile.

"What are you?" She screamed and the monster laughed.
" Your worst nightmare" He said walking to her.
"Eye Balls?" Aya smiled.
"No!" The monster ran towards her and with no effort Aya set the sword in his stomach.
"Sorry, but that's my line…..I now this wont kill you so you better tell me who sent
you here." Aya jabbed the sword deeper, the monster grunted.
"The mistress" He said grabbing her sword and pulled it out of him.
"Ahhh, you and your little vamp friends are gonna die" He looked to his left.
"No I hate VAMPIRES……AND YOU ARE GONNA WISH YOU NEVER SAID
THAT!!!" Aya swung her sword cutting his head of.
"I kill Vamps and I kill you" She dismissed her sword and looked at Luke and
Ein who were running towards her.
"Ewwee" Luke looked at the body.
"What kind of monster is it?" Ein asked. Aya shrugged.
"it's a dead monster now" Aya smiled looking at her ring.
"We better tell Angel" Ein said and the three left.
******
"I cant find it" Angel flipped in his book. Aya walked towards him.
"He worked for the Mistress" Aya looked at him.
"So he was after us" Ein and Luke looked at the two.
"I think so" Aya answered.
"Ok, so they know what we do" Luke rolled her eyes.
"Oh great so there stalkers now" Ein sat down.
"Here!" Angel stood up.
"A Sulkin demon, he eats human eyes and that sees what his pray saw," Angel
stood up.
"Ok that's great" Aya looked to the door.
"Hey, I think we better head to the grave yard" Spike walked in through the
door and looked the five.
"Why" Angel asked.
"I saw this woman walking in to a tomb, I think she's possessed, but I could
be wrong" Spike sat on the couch.
"She was bringing a box, I figured I would come here and tell you before
I went to check it out." He finished.
"Ok Spike and I will go" Angel looked at Aya.
"I Wanna go, I mean this is my mission" Aya protested.
"Ok" Spike agreed. Aya got up and looked at Ein and Luke.
"No worries, we will stay here and see exactly why the thing was after us."
Luke gave her a solute.
"Thanks" Aya Spike and Angel left closing the door behind them.
"I don't trust that Spike guy" Luke looked at Ein.
"I didn't ether when I first met him, but he grew on me….he's a great
vampi…..uh…….I mean guy"Ein stopped and Luke looked at him.
"What?" She stood up.
"Don't tell Aya" Ein went after her.
"He's a vampire……Spike…..HE'S THE ENEMY" Luke walked to the door.
"You saw Aya's ring….and it doesn't glow around him, he's good…..he has a soul"
Ein grabbed her hand and stopped her from walking out.
"A vampire with a soul?, so I guess Angelus has one too?" Luke shoot Ein a dirty look.
"You knew?" Ein let go of her arm.
"yeah….I did" Luke walked back in to the room.
"Ok…well at least I don't have to explain that detail." Ein sat on the couch. Luke
looked at him.
"How did you know?" Ein asked.
"I do read" Aya shot at him. "Especially about a vampire who carves a cross on
the left cheek of his victims……besides that I need to know if I can trust you"
Luke looked in to Ein's eyes.
"Yes…I promise Angel and Spike wont hurt you or Aya" Ein looked back.
"Ok….well than I wont tell Aya….but sooner or later Aya will know" Luke said
and Ein nodded.
"Lets hope we can explain before that happens" Ein finished and Luke shrugged.
********
"There look" Spike pointed to the woman that was standing in front of a large tomb.
"Why she just standing there?" Aya looked at Angel and he shrugged walking out
from behind the tree.
"A little late to be outside?" He smiled and the woman turned around.
"A man…..a vampire?" She said as if to faint. A cold laugh came from behind her.
"Well, well" Her voice was crisp and beautiful.
"Who is there?" Angel looked. A girl in a white long dress walked out in front of him.
Back behind the bushes Aya and Spike watched.
"I will go now, you stay there" Spike walked out and Aya released her sword.
"No I go too" She looked at him and Spike rolled his eyes and shied.
Angel looked at the beautiful girl standing in front of him as if he was mesmerized.
"Angel!" Spike walked to him with Aya behind.
"A slayer?" The girl said calmly. "I thought you were alone" She looked at
Angel.
"Hey snap out of it!" Aya bumped Angel and he fell to the ground.
"What did you do to him you bitch?" Spike was about to transform but he
held back. Aya jumped and was to attack the girl but the woman got in front and
Aya stabbed her instead.
"Damnit!!" Aya cursed looking at the girl.
"Who are you?" Spike asked and the girl walked up to him and kissed him,
Aya tried attacking her again but with no effort the girl smacked her away.
"Spike NO!!" Aya yelled at him and Spike smacked the girl to the ground.
"You ok?" Spike helped Aya up. But before they could go after the girl she was gone.
"Great….she is gonna be a problem" Spike walked to Angel and looked at him.
"Hey get up" He smacked his face but no response.
"Is he gonna be ok?" Aya asked and Angel picked him up and over his shoulder.
"Yeah, I think so….we better get back before that woman comes back."
Spike and Aya walked back out of the graveyard.
********
"Back soon" Luke helped Spike take Angel to his bed.
"Yea, This seductive chick put some love spell on our Angel here" Spike explained.
"She was working me too….but Aya got me to snap out" Spike looked back.
"He will be fine, the spell is temporary…..only to distract him for a while….he should
be fine when he wakes up" Ein looked in the book.
"So who was she?" Aya asked and Spike shrugged.
"I doubt she's the Mistress but we need to watch for her" Spike looked back
and Angel grunted.
"Angel?" Luke looked down and smiled. "Welcome back to the reality world"
She smiled and Angel sat up.
"I felt trapped….I thought I was never getting out" He rubbed his head.
"It was nice though" He looked up.
"Great" Spike shot him a sarcastic look.
"So?" Angel asked.
"She's tough" Aya answered.
"Ok than……."
"Yeah"
"lets think of a strategy" Ein looked at the four in front of him.
"What do you have planned?" Luke asked.
"well…….nothing yet" He smiled. Spike and Aya rolled there eyes.
"You don't mind if I throw you out the window" Spike walked towards Ein and he backed away.
"Down boy" Luke looked at Spike.
" I am going back to see if I can figure out why she was there" Spike walked to the door.
"Hey….no" Aya walked after but he was already gone.
"Leave him…..he's kinda hard headed, nothing can get through to him" Angel looked at
Aya and she shrugged.
"Ok so he's gonna get him self killed…..ok I'm cool with that" She sat on the couch
and looked at Luke.
"You guys should stay here tonight" Ein suggested.
"Ok" Luke and Aya nodded.
"To be safe" Angel finished.
********
Spike walked through the graveyard looking at the gloom and death around him, he
lit a cigarette and sat on top of a grave stone.
"Look, what ever you want your not getting it, as long as I am here your out of luck
" Spike said to the open air. He shied. "No one" He stood up and smiled, he looked at the
tomb and walked away.
"You are not done, are you?" Spike threw the cigarette on the ground and stepped on it.
*********
"GOOD MORNING!!!" Luke looked over Aya who was trying to get the pillow over her head.
"Get up you wanker, it's almost noon" Spike looked at Aya who was on the floor.
"What?" Aya sat up rubbing her eyes.
"You need food!" Luke gave Aya a tray full of food.
"Ok?" Aya arched an eyebrow. "Why the happiness all of a sudden?"
"Well, the book came in earlier than expected and I translated a small part of the
scroll, but there is a sentence that I cant make out so Angel is gonna try to help" Luke smiled.
"Oh joy" Aya rolled her eyes.
"You should be happy….that means we will be able to find Mune" Luke scolded.
"What ever" Aya began to play with her food.
"Hey!" Spike jumped and looked at the door and rolled his eyes. Ein walked in to the house.
"Ever heard of knocking you brat?"
"Sorry Spike" Ein smiled. "Look what I found" Ein held up a book.
"What?"
"History of the dark masters" He threw it at Aya.
"OK?….Where did you get this?"
"Giles" He said proudly.
"Giles??" Spike chocked looked at him in an instance.
"Yeah….well, not directly but he was a great watcher and he left a lot of books with my
mother that he personally wrote and also books watchers before his time wrote"
"Oh" Aya smiled opening the book.
"The Master?" She looked up.
"Don't know" Ein shrugged.
"The Anointed One?" Aya flipped trough the book.
"Oh yeah…the annoying one" Spike smirked and Aya looked up confused..
"What?"
"Never mind" Spike looked away.
"Long story" Angel was heard and Spike jumped again.
"You people need to knock" He shied irritated.
"This is MY house" Angel pointed to him self.
" Well, the book doesn't say" Angel set the book on the couch.
"This one has no info on the Mistress only the Master" Aya set her book down as well.
"The master?" Angel looked at Ein and Spike.
"Smarty over here was digging in his attic" Spike stood up.
"Where?" Angel looked at Ein.
"Well, I kinda found my moms old books….that was the only one which was in English"
He smiled and Angel grabbed the book, he looked at it and a sad smile came across his face.
"I think I will hold on to this" He looked at the others and Aya caught his sadness
but decided not to say anything.
"Ok" She smiled. Angel walked in to this bedroom closing the door behind him.
He stared at the book in his hands.
"Her diary" He chuckled. "I wonder how Ein got his hands on that thing?" He walked
over to a safe and opened it.
"Better to hold on to this" He set it in there and closed the door spinning the lock.
"Yo, quit logging around……..reading Buffy's diary and come" Spike peeked through
the door.
"I will" Angel turned around and walked towards Spike, but the albino blonde haired
cutie stooped him with his finger on Angels shoulder.
"Your not the only one who misses the Buff but we need to get over it, it's been
14 years and we cant, well…." Spike looked away. "We need to worry about Aya and
the Mune now" Spike finished and Angel set a
hand on his shoulder.
"I will" Angel smiled and walked past Spike.
"OK" Spike turned around. "He took that lightly" He said with sarcasm in his
voice. In the living room Aya was out of her bed and was folding her sleeping bag.
"We better go" Luke looked at Spike, Angel and Ein and the three nodded.
"Rest up, I have a feeling tonight will be a thrill" Angel smiled.
"Yeah" Aya nodded with a smile.
The two girls left a few minutes later and Spike shied. Angel looked at him.
"What's wrong?"
"Her" Spike walked to the refrigerator and grabbed some blood out of the
freezer, he opened the microwave and set the bag of blood in it.
"What's wrong with her" Ein looked at Spike.
"She's a child" Spike turned around. "It hurts" He looked down.
"What hurts?"
"The fact that……..just forget about it" Spike took the blood out and bit in to
the bag sucking the red liquid out like it was a Ice cone.
********
"Hey guys" Aya sat on the wall entrance to the graveyard. Spike jumped.
"Will you quit that!" Spike looked up. Angel laughed. "What's so funny?" Spike
scolded.
"You" Angel pushed Spike aside. Aya jumped off the wall and followed the two in.
"Well where are they?" Aya asked but no answered came from the two guys. A
small sound was heard in the bushes, but no worries it was only w small black cat.
"Damn ugly thing" Spike cursed.
"Why are you so jumpy?" Aya asked and Spike gave her a mean look.
"Because you bloody people are to damn quiet and it scares me" He aid shifting
his shoulders.
"Hey!" Angel yelled and a person stopped in a distance, Aya looked at the vile
twisted face and her sword began to glow.
"Oh looked" Aya smirked, Spike looked at her. Aya ran to the vampire and stabbed
him in the chest.
"Is it just me or is it when her sword is out she looks evil?" Spike looked at
Angel and he just shrugged. Aya turned around and smiled at Spike and Angel.
"Behind you!" Angel yelled and Aya stabbed the creature and than the next. In
short time the three were surrounded by vampires.
"A walk in the park" Aya smiled and Spike twisted his eyebrows.
"Are you mad?" He looked at her as if she has gone insane. Aya gave him a faint
smile and began to attack the vampires at full speed, what was in fact fast. Angel
looked at her at the same time he killed two vampires.
After a short time the battle was over and Aya dusted her hands.
"Wow" Spike and Angel stared at Aya.
"What?"
"you sure a strong" Angel smiled surprisingly.
"For humans you two really are strong too" Aya looked round, Angel and Spike
looked away as if they were hiding some secret or just didn't hear her.
"Come on" Aya looked at them and the three walked away.
"Se ya" Angel smiled and Aya walked away from the two.
********
"Back!" Aya walked trough the front door of the apartment and Luke greeted
the 16 year old.
"So what's for dinner?" Aya dropped her stake on the table.
"Chicken" Luke answered reading a book.
"So?" Aya looked at the blonde.
" I'm still trying to figure out what 'lucuse gureil kansa sutca diem' means"
Luke looked up.
"Still no luck" Aya sat on the chair.
"Nope" Luke shied. Aya set her hand on her cheek and smiled.
"Do you like Angel?" Aya smiled and Luke set the book down.
"Yeah he's nice" Luke answered.
"No I mean like, like him" She went on.
"He is hot, but not my type…..I'm more in to the day types" Luke smiled and
set her book back up.
"Ok" Aya sat back looking bored.
" I'm gonna go to se if Ein has anything" Aya stood up.
"That's a good idea" Luke agreed. Aya walked out of the house and down the
street. She looked around and then at her ring.
"No harm no foul" She said and kept on walking. After a short while she came
to Ein's door. Aya knocked and a lady opened the door.
"Hey" Aya smiled looking at Ein who was behind her.
"Hey, err Mom this is my friend Aya, she's visiting Sunny all the way from
Japan" Ein introduced her to his step mom.
"Oh that's nice, please come in" The older woman smiled and Aya walked in.
"So um, do you want something to drink?" The woman asked and Aya shoo her
head.
"No thanks" Aya smiled and looked back at Ein. "Anything?"
"Yeah come with me" Aya and Ein walked up the stairs and he pulled a string
that took them in to the attic.
"Here" Ein pointed to the library of books. "None in English or Latin except
a few and they held no information" Ein shrugged.
"Which ones look helpful?" Aya looked at the mess.
"I don't know, they all are numbered so I cant tell"
"Maybe these books have no information on our Mistress" Aya made a point.
"Yeah but the script" Ein looked at Aya.
"What is the scripts saying so far?" Aya looked at him with a scared face.
"If its that important to translate that, there must be something wrong." Ein looked at the girl.
"You better sit down" Ein looked at Aya and they sat down on the floor.
"So far it says, 'For the one who holds the key, death shall come to the one she
loves'…..MasaMune is the key, and the message goes to the holder which is you or
the Mistress" Ein finished.
"It did say 'her'…..so I guess" Aya looked away. "But it means nothing now, I mean
we haven't gotten the real reason yet….well the real message, only that small passage
" Aya smiled as if she was not affected at all. Ein nodded.
"I guess you are right"
"So now what?" She stood up and he did the same.
"Well, we should go see Angel" Ein suggested and the two walked out of the attic.
"If anyone knows best….well it's him" Ein looked back and helped Aya down the stairs.
"Ok to Angels it is" She smiled and Ein pushed the stairs back up.
