Chapter 6 "Darkness into Light"
Angel watched as Lorne got his son to take a breath but his vitals still remained very low compared to what his were normally. They were always so strong and steady and now they were weak and constantly changing. The worried farther took an unneeded breath and put his head into his hands and waited for a miracle to occur. He felt the change in the room and he sighed relief but it was quickly changed by the slowing of his heart. Angel could still smell the blood that was lingering in the Hotel. He winced in agony for his son and took another breath.
Wesley pushed open the door and looked at the man that he had become found of lying on the bed covered in blood. "How is he doing?"
"About the same Wes he is just there." Angel replied with a look of desperation on his face as he looked at his son once again.
"I know this is hard Angel but I think I may have found something that is pertaining to this very event." The Watcher replied with a book in his hand.
Angel followed him out of the room and back down to the room that was currently being used as the library. Both men sat down and Angel watched as Wesley flipped through the pages trying to find the passage.

Dawn rolled over and went to the window-seal and watched as the sun began to rise over the horizon. She smiled and felt the warmth of the sun wash over her in a gentle wave. She let her hands reach out into the rays and it was like a drug seeping into her skin. She began to feel something and then her body just slumped to the floor.
She watched from what seemed to be the outside of her body and then she was in a passage of what seemed to be a secret passage of what she was guessing to be an old house. She saw a torch lit just ahead and then she saw a girl walking with an older man, the older man was carrying a book and the woman a stake.
She followed them with curiosity. Thoughts passed through her mind but she pushed them aside, for the time until she awoke from this vision of what looked like the past passed over.
"Sir you know the man is dying. We must help him. His father is a vampire but the boy is innocent. He knows nothing of vampires, demons, or even slayers for that matter. We have to help him. I know you can. The claw of the Sibera hit him but that was the blame of his mother not himself sir. Please I know you can help him." The young teenager begged her watcher with a look of pure sympathy in her eyes.
"My young girl, you know we should not. He is destined for man great and many evil things. He will help in his half-brother in the future but he will kill many people as a vampire." Her Watcher said in response to the question.
"Yes sir but in all do respect he will help the boy and the boy will need the blood of this future vampire to heal him of his wounds. I know this isn't a lot but I found a prophecy today sir and without the boy there will be no slayer of the last. If we don't help William Deverx now we cannot count on the world to be safe in the future." The slayer replied with certainty in her voice.
"Very well we will give the boy the antidote and the brother should be able to get the antidote from the vampire. We have to safe the Slayer of the last or their will be no world to live in, you are right my young slayer." The man replied giving his slayer a look of adoration.
Dawn watched for a moment more and then she drifted away and found herself back in LA in her bedroom. "Connor!" She mumbled quickly as she jumped to her feet and ran for the phone.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Angel listened as Wesley told him about the prophecy of the son of the vampire and the prophecy of the Slayer of the Last. It confused him because the prophecy was written like the person reading wasn't suppose to understand but just know that is was imperative that they saved the boy.
"Angel we are running out of time. If we don't find a way to cure the poison in his veins then his heart will stop and the Slayer of the Last will be lost forever and the world will end." Wesley said in a tone that told Angel that he needed to hurry.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Spike lunged for the phone grabbing it before the woman next to him awoke. Buffy looked beautiful lying next to him and there was no way he was going to let a stupid phone wake her up! She was peaceful when she slept and he never ever wanted her to wake up and not be like she had been with him the last night. "Ello?"
"Spike it's me Dawn look I don't have time to talk but Connor is dying and your blood is needed to save him and you need to hurry because there is only a limited amount of time before the poison kills him and then the Slayer of the Last won't live and the world will end. Don't ask questions because I have none of the answers but I know you need to get down here right away!" Dawn ordered and hung up the phone to go and tell Angel.
Spike put the phone down and sighed waking the sleeping goddess that lay next to him. "Buffy pet we need to go to LA it's about Connor and we need to hurry."
"Oh god! Is Dawn okay? Please tell me nothing has happened to me sister." The Slayer yelled her voice panicky and worried.
"NO! My Nibblet is just fine!" The vampire screamed jumping off the bed to get dressed.
"Well in that case we could take our time and I could let you eat a little something." She said in a seductive voice cupping him in her hand.
"NO! Buffy she said we have to hurry and as much as I would love to ravish you right now we have to go." Spike said jerking away from his lover.
"Fine but when you wanna screw me I'm gonna say no." Buffy pouted giving him a childish look.
Dawn hurried down the stairs and bumped into Angel. He barely caught the young girl before she would have fell. "Angel, Spike and Buffy are on their way right now and they well I mean Spike is going to cure him. I had a vision and well it's Spike's blood. Spike's blood is the only cure."
"Are you sure Dawnie?" Angel asked as he released the young teen from his grasp.
"Positive." She replied in a happy tone as she bounded up the stairs.
Spike and Buffy walked quickly up the stairs of the Hotel hopping that they were not too late to save the boy.
Angel opened the door and waved them inside. "He's up stairs."
"Okay so what is it that we are suppose to do?" The blonde vampire asked giving his sire a weird look.
"I'll answer that. Spike you don't remember this because you were really young but when you were a baby a demon clawed you and put a poison into your system. A slayer gave you the antidote and then had to destroy it because it could be used to harm people that aren't infected." Dawn said pulling the father-like vampire up the stairs.
"Okay so how is that gonna help him?" The vampire asked softly almost like a child.
"Spike all you have to do is give him some of your blood and then the problem is solved. You will help won't you?" Dawn asked as a look of fear crossed her features.
"Nibblet you know I will. I don't much like the bloke but if this means something to you then why in the bleedin hell not." He responded following the teenager up the stairs. *I wonder if the baby is okay *
They walked into the room and Angel was setting beside his son with a look of sorrow and fear on his face. He wasn't even there in the room but his mind was in places, deeper and darker places than the room they were in, his mind was putting him through torture and it felt like all hell was breaking loose in his head.
Spike placed a gentle hand on Angel back and he awoke from his place of torment and smiled a weak and fake smile at the three standing before him. Buffy took his hand and pulled him from the room.
Dawn listened and the door shut and she coughed back the tears that had already begun to fall. She looked at the teenager lying in the bed and the tubes and needles sticking from his skin and she couldn't help but want to die for what she had bestow upon Connor.
Spike patted her on the back and noticed the warmth that was coming off of her. He knew she was sick, most likely s sickness that she had put upon herself. He could sense the guilt on the young girl.
"Okay Spike now you have to do exactly what I tell you to when I tell you to do it. Now I need you to sit down on the chair right there beside Connor." Dawn ordered pulling a knife with precious stones decorating the handle. She handed it to him softly. "Now slice the palm of your hand from left to right."
The blonde vampire smiled and pulled the blade across the palm of his hand sending a wave of pain and pleasure through his body. Blood bubbled to the top of the wound and the occupants of the room watched as it began to fill his hand.
"Now pull it above him and lower it down. Then you must say with this blood I am freeing you, you are now the son of darkness, a candle amongst the darkness of this world." Dawn ordered watching the vampire's blood flow into the teenager's mouth.
"With this blood I am freeing you, you are now the son of darkness, a candle amongst the darkness of this world." He chanted as the blood began to flow more rapidly and soon it was pouring from the Master Vampire. It sparkled and then the room became white as the blood cease to flow.
TBC . I hope you liked that because it really took me a while to figure out what I wanted to write. I have been going with the flow for a while now and I have been so busy with helping family move and writing the other fan fictions. There has been so much for me to do lately and it has really been keeping me from writing more. I hope you all like the chapter and want to read more. The next chapter will be filled with twists and turns but rather than that I believe that you will totally follow the story line. Please review because if more people don't start reviewing I am gonna stop writing this story. I love it but their isn't a lot of readers. I will even make you a deal. If you get 20 people to say that you had them read it I will take your info and create a character.
