Part 6
They had cleared out all of the furniture in the room and right in the middle was where the spell would take place. A rope hung from the ceiling and wrapped around Angel and Buffy's waist. A shorter rope hung right beside it and there was where the two ex lover's hands hung. Both wrapped around the others in reassurance.
Buffy smiled up at him. "You're sure you want to."
"I'm sure."
Xander, Anya, Cordelia and Giles all stood off to the side ready to move in if anything happened. Willow and Tara stood next to the Slayer and Vampire chanting. Suddenly a dagger was struck right through the entwined hands. Angel let out a blood-curdling scream while Willow and Tara still chanted. A flash of white light came and the witches were done chanting. They walked over to the group to the side.
"How long do we leave them like this?" Cordelia asked looking at her two friends. Buffy just stood there feeling the power that was coming into her, she had to meditate all through this or it wouldn't work. Cordelia had no idea how she could do it with Angel right in front of her shacking from all the pain.
"Five minutes." Willow said also looking at the two
"As soon as the five minutes is up we need to get Angel downstairs and in bed. Its up to Buffy after that." Giles said
"How is Buffy supposed to cure him?" Xander asked. "He'll be human, so he can't drink her blood or anything else vampires might need."
"Love."
"What?" Everyone said at once
"Angel is going to want to give up on life from all the pain he'll experience. The only thing that will make him want to stay is the one thing that makes him the happiest."
"Buffy."
"Exactly."
