Title- It's About the Power
By- Kirstee
Timeline- Set after Buffy "Storyteller", After Angel "Salvage", and the beginning of the DoTM series
Side Note- In my story Angel has a soul again, there is no evil Cordy, and there is no C/C lovechild because you know EW. So let's just say once the Beast was destroyed all of that bad crap went away. Hey it's my story.
Disclaimer- I own none of these characters. They belong to Joss Whedon and his Co also Lynne Ewing.
Summary- Catty runs away to a small town called Sunnydale. The rest of the daughters go to Angel Inc. for help in finding her. Buffy/Angel/DoTM Crossover.
Catty had snuck into the Health Spa, only turning time back once when guards had asked for her membership card. Now she was in the shower feeling the warm water pounding onto her shoulders. Her thoughts naturally went to what had happened in the past week. She had seen something. Something so evil that it far surpassed any tiny tale that was ever told her. Even the one's about the damn Atrox. It had told her to leave, that she would put the rest on the daughters in danger if she stayed. The weirdest thing was who it was. Seeing her face had set off a light bulb in her mind. Her mother. Her mother was there talking to her. But she knew her mother had died. She had no idea why she was there. But it had scared her, scared her more than anything. Scared her more than the time her and Vanessa were being pursued by the Atrox followers. So she did the first thing that had come to her. She ran. It seemed like a good decision at the time. Run, get the hell outta there. Leave Vanessa, Serena, and Jimena, hopefully so they wouldn't get in trouble. She sighed and leaned against the side of the shower, she now wondered if she had made the right decision.
Dawn sat lazily on the couch, her finger tapping the button on the remote over and over and over. Six other girls lay spread across the floor, on the chairs, and on the couch. Rona sighed and glanced over at Dawn.
"Is there anything to do besides sit here and watch you flip through every channel?" Dawn looked at her, here they were so many teenage girls cooped up in a house. Buffy and Spike had taken a few of the Potentials out to train but there were so many more still here. Bored out of there minds. A perfectly good Friday night wasted.
"So you're saying there is absolutely nothing to do in this town on a Friday night?". Dawn was about to nod her head when she thought of the Bronze. God, she hadn't been there for the longest time. Last time she remembered being there was when she was under that kooky love spell. It would be great to go back. "Well there is this one place...". She instantly had everyone's undivided attention. "There's this club in the bad part of town" Dawn began. "Where's that?" Molly asked leaning on her elbow. "About half a block from the good part of town" Dawn said with a giggle. "I bet we could go if Willow and some others agree to come with" Dawn said. "Well then let's go convince!" Rona said as she jumped up from the couch.
Angel sat on the couch. He knew everyone was still afraid of him. He hated Angelus. Who he was disgusted Angel. But yet it was him, Angelus was always inside of him. Waiting to pop out any moment. Gunn sat across from him. "Ya don't know how hellish it got with you gone" he said. "Only can imagine" Angel said "Gunn I really am sorry". "Hey man I believed you the first 50 times you said it to me" Gunn said with a smile. "Good thing Wes got that Faith girl here". "Yea good" he said as he remembered what had happened.
:Flashback:
Faith was laying on the ground, the Beast looming over her. "You're nothing" he said. Angelus had walked up to them.
"The only thing that can kill him is himself, or a piece of himself" That was when Angelus had stabbed the Beast with the sword that he had made from his bone. The light from the Beast had hit the sun and only Faith could see but it had hit Angelus too. When the sun had reappeared, Angelus had fallen. Faith had dragged herself over to him. "Faith?" Angel had raised his head to look at her. She looked into his eyes and saw the soul that now lay beneath it. "Yea" she said weakly. "Oh God I'm so sorry" he said. She just smiled at him, and to his surprise embraced him. They had sat that way for awhile before they let go and Angel got up and carried Faith down into the sewers.
: Back to Present:
Vanessa paced in Maggie's apartment. Serena and Jimena watched her. Their eyes flicking back and forth, back and forth. Maggie was looking at something. Serena craned her neck to see what it was. The newspaper. "You read the paper?" Serena asked. "Sometimes" she said, her eyes never lifting from the small article at the bottom of the page.
"What are we going to do about Catty?!" Vanessa exclaimed, clearly worried. Jimena answered her softly "Chica, the only thing we can do is wait". "There may be more" Maggie said. She got up and crossed the room. She opened the door to the small closet and reached up on the shelf. She grabbed a big yellow book. "The Yellow Pages!?" Vanessa exclaimed "How the hell will that help us?".
"Patience" Maggie chastised. She flipped through the front of the book until she reached a page in the A's. Serena was looking over Maggie's shoulder while Vanessa tapped her foot. Maggie's finger ran down the page till she came upon a small ad towards the middle of the page. "Ahh." she said as she tapped it. "Angel Investigations?" Serena questioned. Maggie nodded.
"I heard about them a little while ago" she said. "They deal with unnatural cases, there also very good".
Jimena was looking out the window half listening to what they were talking about. The last week or two it had been unnaturally dark. Not night dark but still overly cloudy all day every day. But as she looked outside today, it was bright, all light and cheery. Instantly in a better mood, Jimena turned around. "Well if they can help us, let's go!"
