Title- The Dawn, Spike, Angelus Adventures- The Beginning

Rated- PG-13

Disclaimer- Joss owns the characters, unfortunately for me, however

I own the idea for the story!

A/N- Takes place 3 years later from the beginning of season 6 right

after Flooded. So everything after that episode never happened. And as far as Angel goes anything after season 1 never happened.

Summery- Angel loses his soul, Spike's chip stops working and

wackiness ensues. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------

"She did what!" Xander yelled. The whole Scooby gang was sitting around the table in the dinning room.

"Yup," Buffy answered.

"With," Buffy nodded her head, "him?"

"Yes, Xander!" Buffy was becoming annoyed with him.

"So you're telling us that we have to go through this, again?" Willow asked.

"It's the only thing we can do, Will," Buffy said with a sigh.

"Well, it's not really the only thing," Xander started.

"What's really going on?" Tara asked a little confused, "I mean, I understand that Angel lost his soul and, apparently, it's bad, but what does it mean?"

"Well, when he loses his soul he becomes Angelus who's really evil and we try to help him by replacing his soul," Willow explained.

"And in this type of situation it usually ends with the world almost getting sucked into a hell dimension," Xander added with a sarcastic grin

"Oh," Tara said simply.

"Ok, so we need to locate the texts and gather the supplies we need." Willow got up from the table then stopped, "Do we even know where the texts are?"

"I have them over at the house," Giles answered. "I'll get them for you tomorrow. I suggest we all go and get some sleep. We know what we have to do so we'll complete it tomorrow night. Alright?"

"So you just want us to let him run loose all night?"

As they continued, arguing Dawn slipped out to talk to Spike and warn him about Angelus.

"Well, yes I suppose I am," Giles concluded, "There isn't anything you can do now, we don't have any supplies we don't even know where he is. We're just not prepared right now. He can't get too far in one night anyways." Buffy looked at him doubtfully, "I promise we'll work on it tomorrow night.

Spike paced around his crypt trying to figure out what was

going on. If he was able to feed again, would he? If he had the

chance to take a kill, could he? These were the questions swimming around in his brain.

He thought about it for a little while and came to a

decision. He decided to see if it still worked. If it did, he was going to make use of it. He smiled evilly and walked out into the night.

He walked around central Sunnydale looking for some

unsuspecting meal. As Spike continued, someone ran into him. "Watch it, mate!" Spike yelled as he turned to face the person and saw who it was. The man continued walking, trying not to be noticed, but

Spike noticed who it was. "Hey, wait a sec!"

The man stopped and turned around and looked at him. "Look, I'm sorry. I'll watch where I'm going," the man said a little afraid.

"No don't worry about it," Spike started as he walked toward him. Spike grabbed him and shoved him into an alley then slammed him against a wall. "That's the least of your problems," Spike finished as he morphed, letting his demon come to the surface.

"Whoa, what are you?" the man asked in fear.

"Your end." Spike pushed his head to the side exposing the man's neck. He sunk his fangs deeply into him and let his limp body fall to the ground when he had finished. Spike casually walked out of the alley and headed home.
