gurl! lol
Also: I would like to clear up that in this chapter Buffy and Oz are FRIENDS! nothing more! The song belongs to Michelle Branch off her album The Spirit Room. I was listening to this song when i wrote this.
Spike and Angel looked at the men in front of them. "Can we help you gentlemen?" One in front asked dangerously. "Yes," Angel said, "You can move!" The men looked at him sskeptically. "We highly doubt that." Then Angel vamped out and exploded into the crowd of men. He bit anything he could and his ears roared with the delights of the sounds of blood shed. Spike shrugged and hopped into the strange tangle of bodies. Fists flew, blood spilled, and the vampires growled. One man attempted to flee but was stopped as Spike roared and ran after him. He spun hi around and punched him in the face. Then man fell and Spike stepped over him. "This is for the slayer!" He roared and then snapped his victims neck. Angel didn't know what came over him, but suddenly he bit down into a mans neck and drained his blood, and suddenly Angel was filled with amazing POWER. He felt as thought he could move a mountain if someone asked him to. As more and more died from the two's combined efforts, the men started fleeing. As soon as they were all gone, Spike and Angel collapsed to the ground in exhaustion.
"Well, mate, what do you think these things might be?" He asked cockily to Angel. Angel shrugged helplessly. They stood up and turned and began to look for an exit. They saw an opening in the walls up ahead. They walked forward, cautiously, not aware that at that very moment, they were being watched.

"Well, well, well." The mayor muttered. "If it isn't my old buddies Angel and Spike." He is rasping and wheezing. He mutters softly to the man next to him. "But master, you are much to weak, it would be terrible to your health!" "Do you not remember what happened to me?!" The man next to him shuddered. "When you pieced me back together, and brought me to life with your spell, it was to bring vengeance to the slayer for killing the Tales. And now I will finish my job." The man next to him shuddered in disgust. He picked up the mayor and brought him over to a wheelchair. Wheezing once more, the master moved the wheels forward. The man behind him began washing his skin and hands with a handy wipe kept next to his masters chair. Suddenly another robed figure came out of the darkness. "So, Angelo, when do you think Angel will kill the mayor?" "Soon, very soon." "Why is that?" "Well, Artimis, the mayor is becoming more strong willed, and soon he will want to face Angel in a fight. Then, he will die and we will have Angel. For when Angel kills him, we have planted a spell that will take Angel's soul away." The man next to him smiled brightly. "Perfect." Then Artimis walked away back into the darkness. Angelo smiled to himself and lounged out in the masters chair. 'It's good to be evil.' He thought peacefully. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Meanwhile, back at the hospital, Buffy is thinking of Angel and Spike)
Of all the things I've believed in I just want to get it over with Tears form behind my eyes But I do not cry Counting the days that pass me by
Buffy was so confused. She loved Angel so much, but her body had only known Spike's touch lately, and that was all it craved. But her body had known Angel first, and parts of her, especially her heart would not forgot it. 'Oh God, what's wrong with me? Why can't I ever like normal people?' Buffy rethought that statement. 'Well, I'm exactly that normal, am I?'
I've been searching deep down in my soul Words that I'm hearing are starting to get old It feels like I'm starting all over again The last three years were just pretend
Oz paced out in front on Buffy's hospital room. His new band had been in the area when he saw Wesley. Wesley had said hello, and then frantically said he needed to get to the hospital. When Oz found out why, he almost had a heart-attack. Buffy was one of his best friends. Well, she was before he left Willow. Buffy probably had some horrible grudge against him. So that's why Oz was left there Waiting outside the hospital room. He had to admit, before he dated Willow, he thought Buffy was a total package. But he was more into the quiet type, and Willow had been just that. With one last moment of hesitation, he pushed open the door.
And I said, Goodbye to you Goodbye to everything I thought I knew You were the one I loved The one thing that I tried to hold on to
Buffy looked up to see a sight that she hadn't ever thought she would see again. Oz was looking back at her. Buffy felt warmth flow through her veins. She saw Oz and thought of the past, her happy past. Oz walked over, and all formalities forgotten, he leaned over and hugged Buffy. She hugged him back with enthusiasm. "Hey Oz!" "Buffy." He responded coyly, still the same old monotone voice. But it was still so good to see him. "It's so good to see you. How'd you know I was here?" "Oh, I saw Wes outside." "Nice. What are you doing in L.A.?" "Oh, I had a gig with my new band. We call ourselves Buffy." Buffy looked startled. Was he serious? It was so hard to tell with Oz. His expressions almost never changed.
I still get lost in your eyes And it seems that I can't live a day without you Closing my eyes and you chase my thoughts away To a place where I am blinded by the light But it's not right
"Anyway Buff, do you have any idea who did this?" Buffy nodded. "I sent Angel and Spike to get them." Oz nodded. He sat down on the edge of Buffy's bed. "So...how's Will?" Buffy gulped. "She's good. Still with Tara. How's the wolf thing coming?" Oz looked a little happier, or maybe it was just the lights playing tricks on Buffy. "I got it under control. I can control myself completely." Buffy looked at him. "Oz! That's awesome!"
Goodbye to you Goodbye to everything I thought I knew You were the one I loved The one thing that I tried to hold on to
Oz nodded. "I know man, I know." Then he looked down. "I just wish Will was here to share it." Buffy nodded sympathetically. She pulled Oz into her arms for a hug.
And it hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time I want what's yours and I want what's mine I want you But I'm not giving in this time
"Just tell me she's happy Buff, just tell me she's happy!" "Oh she is." Oz smiled. Suddenly the doctor walked in. Spike got up and walked to the chair. The doctor smiled at Buffy. "Mrs. Summers, it seems you have a very good white blood cell count, because you are almost fully healed. If you want, you can go home." Buffy nodded. "OK, thank you." As the doctor walked out, Buffy turned to Oz. "Can you drive me somewhere?" Oz nodded. Buffy got out of bed and walked over to her clothes. She looked at Oz and cleared her throat. "Oh, um, sorry." He walked out of the room. Buffy picked up her clothes and sniffed them. They smelt like Angel. Her Angel.
Goodbye to you Goodbye to everything I thought I knew You were the one I loved The one thing that I tried to hold on to The one thing that I tried to hold on to And when the stars fall I will lie awake You're my shooting star
