Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters in this story that have ever been on Port Charles, those characters are the property of ABC/Disney. Angel, Eddie, and the other kids are my creations, along with Jesse.

A/N: I'm finally getting into the main part of this story. Sorry it took so long to get to this point, but I wanted to make sure I showed how Eddie and Angel react with those around them before getting to this point. Hope you enjoy and please tell me what you think! PS. Yes, I know it would be nice if Alison were around more, but we'll just have to wait and see what happens, now won't we?

He stepped off the plane and took a look around. It had been fifteen years since he'd been home. He turned around and saw the look of amazement on Eddie's face. "It's amazing here," he said, noticing the beauty in the mountains that surrounded them.

"Yeah, it is, isn't it?" he said, as he began walking.

"So where are we heading to first, Dad?"

"We will be heading to my old house. Now, I'm going to warn you that it may seem a little run down. Of course, I haven't been here for fifteen years, so you can understand that."

"Fifteen years?"

"Yeah, your mom was pregnant with you and Angel was three. It's a long story, which we will hopefully get to while we're here."

"Do you ever wish you could live here again?"

"Sometimes, I do," he said, having gotten their bags in a car he had set up for them at the airport. "but then I realize how many friends and family we have in Port Charles, and I don't think I want to leave that."

They drove for what seemed like awhile, not saying much. Eddie just stared outside at the beautiful scenery. Rafe finally pulled onto a dirt road, which went on for a mile. When they got to the house Eddie was amazed. It was two stories, and had a mystique to it all its own.

"Welcome home," Rafe said, getting is bag out of the trunk and throwing it over his shoulder. They walked up the steps and Rafe opened the door , "Mrs Oberth, we're here." Eddie walked in behind him, and soon saw a woman coming towards them with a huge grin. She was elderly, her hair having already turned gray was pulled up in a bun on her head.

"Rafe, it's been so long since I saw you, and please call me Delia," she said giving him a hug. She turned and looked at Eddie. "This must be Edward, he looks just like you did at his age Rafe." she said giving him a hug. Eddie could see the smile on his father's face appearing.

"Delia, he goes by Eddie. Delia is an old family friend, and watches the house while I'm gone. I'm sure you've done a lot of cleaning these past few weeks."

"Nothing is too good for you and your son. I was so hoping to meet Angel."

"I'll see if she can make it on the next trip. She just graduated last week from high school, and is on a trip with friends right now. Which bedrooms did you give us?" he asked, starting to walk up the stairs.

"I set up your old bedroom, and the bedroom that overlooks the front. Dinner will be ready in an hour or two."

Rafe had started walking up the stairs when he realized Eddie hadn't been following him "Hey son, are you coming?" as he watched Eddie still looking around in amazement.

"Yeah, I'm coming," as he started to run up the steps. "It's just so amazing that you used to live in this house."

Rafe was glad to think there was still something amazing about him. "Do you want to take my old bedroom or the one overlooking the front?"

"I'll take the front bedroom," he said, as his Dad set down his bag at the top of the steps and walked him to it.

Jesse sat on the couch, completely bored. The boys should be there by now she thought while glancing at the clock that read 11 AM. She had the house to herself for the next week until Angel got back. She went over and decided to call her sister to see how she was doing.

"Hello?" said Livvie's voice on the other end of the line.

"Hey sis," she said, sitting back down on the couch.

"Hey Jesse. How's everything with you?"

"I'm doing good, bored right now. It's just me for the next week in this house."

"Where are Rafe and Eddie at?" she said, walking into the study so Caleb could hear her conversation.

"Oh they went to Transylvania. Rafe decided they needed some male time, and that it would be the best place. I'm sure Eddie is going to love the vacation."

"They went to Transylvania," she said giving Caleb a look. She saw his eyes get big as he started to wonder what would have caused Rafe to go back to their motherland. "I'm sure he will enjoy the vacation. Well, I need to get some stuff done real quick, can I call you back? Ok, bye Jesse."

She hung up the phone and sat down next to Caleb. "What could Rafe be doing there?" she said, trying to figure it out for herself.

"Wait, how old is Eddie now?"

She thought for a second, "I guess fifteen, why?"

"He's starting to get his slayer instincts, and Rafe took him there to either tell him or get him trained," Caleb said, upset that their truce may finally have reached the end.

"How come we never heard about him going there with Angel? We know that there can be female slayers, look at Lucy."

"Angel is too much like her mom. She's trusting, and can't sense danger as well as Rafe and Lucy can," he said, sitting up and walking to the door.

"Where are you off to?" she said, looking back over her shoulder.

"I think I'm going to pay a little visit to Rafe," he said, giving her a smile and closing the door behind him.

"Please be careful," she thought.
