Title- Switching
By- Kirstee
Timeline- Set after Buffy "Storyteller" and Angel "Soulless" I am changing the timeline for the Buffy part of the story- Mainly because I want to add a few points that have recently developed.
Disclaimer- I own none of these characters. They belong to Joss Whedon and his Co. I wish they were mine. That would be cool.
Summary- The Angel gang searches frantically for a spell that will return Angel's soul, while some weird things are going on over at the Summers residence. Buffy/Angel crossover.
A/N- Since on the recent Angel episodes we have found out that there is some weird deity person named Jasmine and Cordy is in a coma. Well none of that happened!
"Beginning of what? My life? Sorry children but that is going to take more time then I have" Spike said, he was trying to remain calm. He had to get out of this cage, and back to Sunnydale.
"I don't think story time is what we need now" Connor said from the corner. "What about Lorne?"
"What about Lorne?" Wesley said.
"Well can't he read whoever that is" Connor said.
'Why didn't I think of that' Wesley thought to himself.
"Up to it Lorne?" Wes asked him. Lorne nodded.
"Wait read me? What the hell is that about?" Spike said backing away from them all.
Cordy beckoned Lorne to stand beside her. He approached and Cordy turned to face the now retreating Spike.
"Sing" Cordy commanded.
"Wha--" Spike said.
"Sing" she said louder.
"I'm not singing" Spike said moving closer to Cordelia. "Sing. Now!" Cordy said her teeth clenched.
"I am not bleedin' SINGING!" Spike said. Cordy and Spike were now face to face, or as close to face to face as you can get with a cage between you.
"Spike I am not kidding" Cordy said her anger about to boil over.
"Well I'm not laughing" Spike said.
"Spike" Wes said calmly "The only way we can know it is truly you and not Angel is for Lorne to read you, and the only way Lorne can read you is if you sing"
Spike sighed. "Fine whatever"
"What should I sing?" he asked the demon.
"Anything is good" Lorne said, still wary of this person in front of him.
Spike took another deep breath and sang the only song he could think of at that moment.
"Twenty, Twenty, Twenty four hours ago." He saw a smile appear on the demon Lorne's face. He gave him an icy glare as he continued the song.
"I wanna be sedated, Nothing to do, Nowhere to go. I wanna be sedated"
It was weird. Fred stared at the singing vampire. Angel was singing the Ramones. In a British accent. Now that was something she had never expected to see. Ever.
After about 30 more seconds of singing, Lorne held up his hand stop. Spike immediately fell silent.
Cordelia looked over at the confused Lorne. He seemed to be arguing to himself.
"Uhh. Lorne?" Cordy asked. Lorne looked up to see the whole basement group looking expectantly at him.
"Its defiantly not Angel in there, or his evil counterpart. But there is something that resembles our brooder"
"What?" Cordy said.
Lorne paused.
"A soul" he said. Shocked expressions came from all, save Spike.
"Well I coulda told you that" Spike said as he leaned against the wall.

Buffy stood in the kitchen. She was debating on whether to go down and see Spike, he just seemed so. different.
A voice wafted in from the dining room.
". Potentials"
The voice was Kennedy. Buffy walked to the dining room and saw Willow at the computer with Kennedy sitting across from her.
They hadn't noticed Buffy. They finished there conversation and Kennedy got up and gave Willow a quick kiss before heading outside.
Buffy thought it was sweet.
Buffy walked in and put a water bottle next to Willow. Willow looked up and gave Buffy a smile.
"Thanks" she said as she took a sip of it.
Buffy sat in Kennedy's vacated seat. She took a sip of her own water.
Buffy wanted to talk to Willow about Spike but she didn't know how to start the conversation. So she just kinda gave Willow quick glances before looking back down at her shoes. Which were pretty nice.
"Buffy" Willow said. Buffy raised her head.
"Do you wanna ask me something?" Willow said to her. Buffy looked sheepish.
"Yea, Well I uh" Buffy started. "I've been noticing something about Spike"
Willow's eyes widened and Buffy could tell that Willow had gotten the wrong impression.
"Oh, no, no, Nothing like that"
Willow's expression showed relief.
"It's just he seems different, like its not him or something" Buffy trailed off.
"Maybe he is just stir crazy or something?" Willow suggested.
"I don't think so" she said.
"Well I could try a spell if you want." Willow said.
"What kind of spell would it be?" Buffy asked, she didn't want to send Willow off the deep end just because Buffy had a 'feeling'.
"Well I could try an aura reading, that kind of stuff used to come to Tara naturally but I could see if I could use a spell to see it" Willow said, her face falling a little when she said Tara's name.
Buffy put one hand over Willow's in an act of comfort. Willow smiled again at Buffy.
"That would be great Will" Buffy said. "How bout we do it tonight?"
Willow nodded and took another sip of her water.
"Well I better get back to work" Buffy said. She said a quick goodbye to Willow and went out the front door.
Willow went over to the shelf where they kept some magic books. She looked over the bindings until she found the book she needed. She sat back down at the table and began to leaf through it looking for the aura spell.
