Chapter 15: Stolen
Library
Angelus walked into the library with five big books in his hands. He glanced at Buffy,
'I hope you appreciate this,' he thought, 'I had to pay that demon a good sum, before he would leave and he wouldn't shut up!' Buffy giggled at his irate thought and received a glare.
"So," Giles asked, interrupting the lovers, "These are the books? Fascinating." He said, as he picked one up and began to flip threw them. "Well thank you, Angelus, but you and Spike should leave before the sun rises." Giles said, he still did not like being in the same room as Angelus, but if his slayer loved him, than so be it. Although their relationship was still a little rocky, they were working on it.
"Actually," Doyle said, walking in, "I have something for Spike and Angelus." He handed both of them ring boxes.
"Awww, you shouldn't have." Spike said.
"Sorry, Doyle, first off I'm taken and secondly your not my type." Angelus told him.
"Yes he is." Spike said, receiving a glare from Angelus.
"They aren't from me." Doyle told them. "They are from the PTB, they said that your part was not done and that you would be needed to keep the slayers on the true course, so they wanted to give you a "present". It makes you immune to the sun and everything else." Doyle told them. "Angelus, when you have completed the ritual, your childe and his mate will need to do the ritual. They will be the last slayers, they will walk through the earth until the darkness is defeated and your lives will be bound together."
Everyone sat in stunned silence at what Doyle had just told them.
"So, I'm gonna be stuck with the Billy Idol look alike for the rest of my life?" Buffy asked and got playfully hit by Faith.
"It's not like I want to spend time with you, Fluffy." He told her and got hit also. "Do it again I like it." Faith hit him again, harder and he winced. "Never mind."
"Children." Giles said, "There are more important matters at hand."
"Like the ascension and who is behind it." Said a young woman, walking through the swinging doors. "Gwendolyn Post."
"New watcher," everyone muttered together.
"I have been sent to take over for Mr. Giles." She looked around the room and saw the two slayers sitting on two vampires laps and two girls and two boys. "And you all are?"
"Yes, well," Giles said, "Buffy, the blonde, is sitting on Angelus, Faith, next to her, is sitting on Spike, Willow, the red head is sitting on Oz, Cordelia, is sitting on Doyle." Everyone made a wave as their name was called, except for Spike and Angelus, they just continued to glare.
"Well, it seems shabby. And what are these?" she asked as she fingered through the books of Ascension.
"The Books of Ascension."
"Ahh, splendid." She said, she turned to Buffy and Faith, "Why don't you two get started on them?" Faith and Buffy gave each other a look and got up and left. "Was it something I said?"
"Yes." Was all Angelus said, before he followed Buffy out into the sunshine.
"If you hurt her, they will never find your body," Spike told her and started to follow them out, but as an after thought, "Well, most of it anyways."
Gwendolyn turned and looked to Giles for help, but he was talking to Doyle about what the PTB had said. The first bell rang and everyone took off for class leaving Giles and Gwendolyn alone in the room.
"So," she began, "Where is Mr. Wyndam-Price?"
"I have no idea." He told her, hoping that she would just leave, so he could be alone with his books. "Nor, do I bloody well care." He told her and then he too left, following the vampires outside. Gwendolyn picked up the phone and dialed a number.
"Yes, can I speak with Quienton Travers?" she asked, "Yes, Mr. Travers I have landed and made contact. No, I have not killed the vampires yet.. No, the slayers do not realize why I have been really sent. Yes, I have the poison.. Yes, I will be giving it tonight. Goodbye." She hung up the phone and headed for a local motel.
Outside
"Why would they do that?" Buffy asked, as she tried to get closer to Angelus who was holding her in his arms. "Why do they want to hurt me?" she asked and giggled when he started to growl. "Why can't they leave us alone? I slay and everything else and I don't want a new watcher." She heard the first bell ring, but she didn't care, she just tried to get even closer to Angelus, who was stroking her back, trying to calm her down.
"Ms. Summers, don't you have a class to go to?" Snyder asked, "Oh, hello Angelus. Take your time Ms. Summers." He told her and he turned and left.
"You've got him whipped, don't ya?" she asked, giggling at the thought of Snyder being afraid of someone.
"Yes," he told her, trying to calm her down still, "I think that they just want to give you as much help as they possibly can.."
"But Giles is all we need," she interrupted him, leaning back so that she could look at his face. "We don't need those stupid watcher people." She told him and then leaned back into his embrace, burying her face into his neck. "You need a tan."
"Haven't had a chance to get one in the last two hundred years or so." He told her and smiled when she laughed. "All better now?"
"Ya, thanks."
Patrol: That Night
"Ya, so she's all 'You must train like this.' And I'm all like 'You bitch!'" Faith told a laughing Spike and Angelus, Buffy had been there for it and she had to physically restrain Faith from decking the new watcher.
Suddenly they where attacked by a group of vampires, they split up into groups and started taking them out. Angelus let out a growl of pain as an arrow went through his shoulder and he fell to the ground, he could hear his childe's cry of pain and he rolled over to see the same arrow in Spike, his growl got louder. Faith and Buffy carried the two back to the mansion, where they were met by a frantic Doyle.
"You need cel phones," were the first words out of his mouth. "Now, tell me that you are wearing your rings." He groaned when they shook their heads. "You have just been shot with a poison, called the Killer of the Dead, by none other than Gwendolyn Post. You need to find her, before she leaves town, because she has the cure." He told them.
'And hurry, because the alternative is not great.' He thought, watching the slayers take off.
"Come on big guys, I'll take care of you, while they are gone."
Library
"Yes, it has been done.." Gwendolyn Post listened to the conversation and she never heard the slayers enter, until one of them took the phone and knocked her out.
"I'm sorry, but Ms. Post is taking a little nap, we'll be sure that she gets back to you." Faith told them and Buffy took the phone, "Yes and until the next slayers are called, get a new job and a life while you are at it!" Buffy slammed the phone down as Faith started to drag Gwendolyn's body to the mansion.
Mansion
Willow, Doyle, Cordy, and Oz where taking turns watching the two vampires, while Giles and Jenny searched for the cure.
"Oh! Here it is!" Jenny exclaimed, "Oh!" she said, "It can be cured by the blood of the slayer. OH!" her voice dropped. Everyone stood stock still.
"Well," Faith said, as she and Buffy walked through the door, "It's a good thing that there is two of us." Buffy and Faith walked off to their rooms where their mates were waiting.
"Make sure she doesn't go anywhere." Buffy threw over her shoulder.
Bedroom
"Angelus, sweetie, they found a cure."
"Okay, where is it."
"Right here." She said, removing her shirt. "Drink.. Drink me." She commanded him and pulled his face to her neck.
"No!" he told her, pushing her away. "I won't do it. I don't have enough control." He told her, but she held him tightly and pushed his head back to her neck.
"It's the only cure."
"Then this is it. You will have to survive without me." He told her.
"I can't lose you!" she decked him, again and again until he came up with game face on. She pulled his head to her neck and waited. She felt his fangs slid into her neck and it was painful at first, but then she felt a rush of pleasure. She pushed herself more fully into his fangs and moaned. She felt him drawing her life force away and it was the most erotic thing that they had done and she could feel herself climaxing, just as she lost consciousness.
Angelus pulled away from her and looked at her,
"Buffy?" he asked and gently shook her, not getting a response he picked her up and sped out of the mansion, past a startled watcher and the rest of the scoobies. He placed her in Giles's car and he could feel his childe coming.
"Hurry up, favored childe." Angelus commanded Spike and he placed Faith in the back with Buffy and they took off for the hospital.
Hospital
"We need help, they've lost allot of blood." Angelus told the doctors, as Spike and him came in with the unconscious slayers.
"What happened?"
"We don't know, we came home and found them like this. It looks like they were attacked." The doctors went to work on them and Spike called the gang to let them know that the slayers would be all right. Angelus headed back to the mansion, to take care of Gwendolyn Post.
Dream Sequence
Faith and Buffy walked through the library and watched as Wesley killed Giles and then said a spell, quickly turning into Hank Summers and then into a demon. The demon reads a few passages in front of the assembled graduating class and eats all of them.
Suddenly they find themselves watching a new rogish looking Wesley fight demons. They watch as he passes a sign that says Los Angeles and continues his fight with the two vampires. He then turned to them,
"You have to be prepared for what is to come." He told them. "Everyone is depending on you. You must use the demons weakness."
"What is his weakness?" Buffy asked.
"You are." Wesley touches them and they both gasp as they awaken in the hospital.
Mansion
Gwendolyn awoke with a pounding headache.
"I bet that hurt." Angelus told her, gesturing to the bump she had on her head from Faith hitting her. "But not as much as this is going to." He told as he showed her the array of weapons that he had in store to use on her. "Do you know what it is.." he trailed off and he began to look thoughtful, "She's awake." He said calmly.
"How do you know?"
"I can feel her."
"I was lead to believe that your bonding hadn't gotten that far."
"Well, that was before your little poison incident, now I can feel the pain she is feeling and everything else, along with the thoughts." He told her. "Now my childe and I are prepared for all." He flashed her the ring he was wearing.
"Flashy ring. What does it do? Decode messages?" she asked.
"No," he said, "Something better. It will allow me and my childe to live with our slayers until they die, without being staked and we can go into sunlight. But enough talk, more torture."
Library
"The seer, the werewolf, the mind, the father, the witch, and the heart will protect the chosen when they defeat the demon, by reciting the spell of Asir?? the day of ascension. While the chosen recite a magical protection spell the day before the ascension." Giles quickly scribbled down the notes. "the chosen's mates must recite the spell of Belli?? a week before hand." Giles put the notes in his desk and got up to make a phone call out in the library, when he heard a noise. Looking up he saw a vampire scurrying out of his room with the books! Rushing back, he checked and made sure he still had his notes. He grabbed them and headed to the mansion.
Outside of the Town
A lone biker skidded to a stop at the 'Welcome to Sunnydale' sign. Taking his helmet off, he took a look around.
"Well, it isn't Los Angeles, but Whistler said I was needed." Shrugging he made his way to the mansion on Crawford street.
