Step into Another World
A/N: I actually got reviews for this chapter. Wow. The first chapter I wrote was way back when the episode first aired and one person reviewed. That just discouraged me a lot. But no fear I am back with your third installment of Step into Another World.

Wesley
As I sit here, I remember not to long ago when Angel saved me. And then I saved him. I don't know what makes me think of this. But then I look in the mirror and see myself. Regular me. Wesley the guy with two legs, two eyes, and one arm.
When I called my father from the hospital, he laughed. He told me he knew that I would screw up. He told me that I would never amount to anything. But that's my father. And I hate it.
Since that horrible night I have learned to fight. I have learned to move with a bit of grace. I have learned to do everything with one arm. I can move a weapon quite well. I learned most of this by myself.
At first Angel began to help me. And it was a great help. But the lessons became less and less. The pain hurt Angel in a way he couldn't even imagine. He began to retreat into himself. He sat alone in his office more and more.
They started a business. It pays the bills. People come. They ask for help. I help them. They leave. This is the way it always works. It gets lonely.
Angel use to fight along side me. But he usually stayed home now. When he started talking to himself, that's when I began to see that the visions hurt him in a much bigger way. After his friend Doyle died, he stopped. Stopped caring.
Once he sent me to stop a vampire from killing a gypsy girl. The vampire name Angelus. He swore he had a vision. But I know it was just a memory. A haunting memory.
Now he has sent me on yet another mission. "Alley behind the Tai place. There are gangster looking guys. They're fighting vampires."
"And we must find them?"
He ignores the question. "The leader. his sister. You have to save his sister."
So that's why I'm here. To save his sister. The man's name is Charles Gunn. And he is more stubborn then Angel. He refuse to believe me.
"So your saying that some power sent you to save us? I think we can save us ourselves."
"Not just some power. The Powers That Be. They control all that happens. They are the ultimate good. They send visions to my friend, Angel and he sends me to help. He saw your sister die."
"My sis?"
"Yes."
"So why did your friend chose you, mister British"
"Wesley. My name is Wesley. He sends me because he can not go. The visions have made him quite mad."
"Then that's it. He's just crazy." He turns to his men. "Let's get out of here."
"No. He may be mad but his visions are never wrong. He is the only vampire in the world with these visions, so nobody else will be here to save you."
"Vampire? You work for a vampire?"
"I work with a vampire. And he has a soul. Why else would he send me to save her?"
His sister comes out.
"Charles, what's going on out here?"
"Nothing, go back in."
"It's not nothing." I yell. "Your sister is in danger."
This is when they grab me. One hard blow to my face. They hear from behind a girl yelling. I knew this would happen. And I hate it.
His sister is gone. A vampire took her. The men run for the car and chase the vampire. I follow. We fight. There are 12 vamps. There are 9 of us. I see some innocent men die. I don't like this feeling.
Charles stand there watching as his sister walks toward him. I could have sworn I saw her get bitten. The last vampire runs off. That doesn't stop me from stalking him.
I look back to Charles. His sister is gone. Dust. Poor Charles.
