Song: Chad Kroeger- Hero

(I'm so happy because Angel is coming back for a 5th season and James Marsters is going to join the show since Buffy is over! Well I hope you enjoyed my last chapter let's see how everything goes.)

"Wes, have you had any luck finding the demon that attacked Kali and her family?" Angel walked into Wes's office.

"Not yet but Willow called giving me help because Riley told her he ran into someone on patrol one night they seemed to be babbling about the war was coming." Wes stood up grabbing another book. "I saw Rain and Connor acting rather close, is everything back to normal?" Wes noticed Angel's stressed look so he decided to switch the subject to something the vamp wasn't stressed about.

"Yes, they're working it out slowly, together." The souled vamp smiled proudly. "Connor told me about their fight last night on patrol." He nodded.

"That's lovely, is there something bothering you Angel?" The ex-watcher asked leaning closer to the vamp.

"Maybe, just..."

I am so high, I can hear heaven
I am so high, I can hear heaven
Whoa, but heaven...no, heaven don't hear me
And they say

"Hey Angel!" Darla's eyes sparkled as she walked up to her childe.

"Hey," Angel greeted his sire. "What are you doing?" He looked at her as she grabbed a book.

"Just trying to get away from the Buffy and Kay madness of pregnancy and marriage." She opened the book.

"Angel, do you want to talk about this later?" Wes settled back in his chair.

"Yeah, that would be better." The broody vamp left the office with Darla following.

"Hey sweetie, how are you feeling?" Kay asked from her spot next to Fred and Buffy on the couch. Faith and Ara joined them, Spike stood behind Buffy, and Gunn sat behind the desk.

"All right I think I might go lay down." Angel kissed Kay's cheek and walked slowly up the stairs.

"What's wrong with my dad?" Connor had his arm around Rain's shoulder when he walked into the lobby with Mac tagging behind next to Ecks and Kali.

"Probably just stressed." Darla smiled at her son.

"I'll be right back." Spike kissed Buffy's forehead and the blond vamp walked into Angel's room, closing the door behind him. "Want to tell me what's wrong peaches?" Spike looked at the broody vamp that stared out the window.

"Why do you care Spike?"

That a hero could save us
I'm not gonna stand here and wait
I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles
Watch as we all fly away

"I'm hoping if I help you, you'll help me." Spike sat down in a chair while Angel turned towards him.

"Help you with what?" The older vamp raised an eyebrow.

"Tell me about how to be a good father." Spike slumped in his chair.

"Spike is having daddy jitters." Angel mocked him.

"Well, it's better than wedding." Spike growled.

"You sensed that didn't you?" Angel gave an unneeded sigh while pacing.

"Yeah, it's Darla isn't it?" Spike scratched the back of his neck.

"Ever since she's come back I've felt like Connor's been ignoring Kay, I keep think am I doing the right thing?" Angel sat down on the bed.

"Which one do you love?" Spike set his elbows on his knees.

"I love them both but I want to spend the rest of my life with Kay."

"Then you're doing the right thing and Connor can't blame you for being in love." Spike stood up.

"How'd you become so good with advice?" Angel looked at the blond with curiously.

"Buffy brings a lot out in me." The peroxide vamp smiled.

"Spike, we actually had a real conversation." Angel stood up facing the other vamp.

Spike looked at the champion who wore black just like him, they had a lot in common. "Bloody hell we did, now listen to me peaches if you open your gob about this I'll beat you to a bloody pulp." The young vamp glared.

"Not a word." Angel laughed. "Thanks though William."

"No problem, Liam. Now, will you give me a little help on my problem?"

Downstairs

"Rain, I want your opinion on the dresses we've picked out for the bridesmaids." Buffy picked up a magazine.

"Who are they?" Rain stood behind the blond bride-to-be.

"Willow, Dawn, Gabby, Ara, Fred, and you. Three for each we're not going traditional." Buffy pointed to baby blue dress, which had thin straps, the bottom was made with ruffles, and the bottom back was longer than the bottom front.

Someone told me
Love would all save us
But, how can that be
Look what love gave us

"They're cute, especially like that it's silk." The young girl smiled.

"Here's what we thought Mac should wear." Kay handed another magazine to Rain pointing to a flower girl dress that was baby blue with pink flowers.

"It matches perfectly." She handed the magazine back tot eh Wicca bride-to-be.

"What are you two wearing?" She looked between the two.

"My mom's wedding dress." Buffy smiled.

"Your mother said she'd surprise me and make it for me." Kay touched Rain's hand.

"That's cool." Rain hugged Connor's waist as he stood next to her.

The phone rang and Fred walked over to it picking it up. "Hello this is Angel Investigations, we help the helpless." Her Texan accent made them all smile. "Yes, I'll send someone right away." She hung up.

"What is it Fred?" Gunn stood behind the desk.

"A lady on 5th says her apartment is making strange noises like something is in the walls."

"I'll go." Gunn walked over to the weapons cabinet.

"I'll go with you." Connor kissed Rain's forehead before heading over to the cabinet.

"Me too." The young slayer headed for the cabinet also.

"Maybe Gunn and I should handle it." Connor turned looking into her crystal blue eyes.

"I think I can handle some little noise, I'm not fragile." Rain shook her head.

"I know you can, I just think Gunn and I should handle it because you had a long day at school." Connor put his hands on her shoulders.

"I'm the slayer, we have long days its part of our destiny."

A world full of killing
And blood spilling
That world never came
And they say

"You really emphasize on the whole I'm the slayer I deserve hard work and tragedy, I'm perfect and all mighty." Kali sighed. "Watch this." Kali walked over to some dying flowers in a vase and floated her hand over them and a glowing blue light freshened them back to life. "Now who's cool?" She smiled.

Rain rolled her eyes. "Big whoop." Rain ran at Kali flipping over her which Kali span to face her as she did two backhand springs, a round off, a one handed cartwheel, and a landed with a back flip. "You to admit that was cool." The slayer pushed hair out of her face.

"Not bad for a rookie." Kali held out her hand towards the entrance of the Hyperion, wind blew the doors open on that clam day and as Kali wiggled her fingers raindrops fell on the once non-cloudy day. "Let's see, I could make it snow but that would be too out there." Kali lowered her hand and the sky cleared up.

"Ok, what are you mother nature?" Rain had her hands on her hips.

"Basically, which means I talk to animals." Kali smiled at the bewildered grown-ups.

"More like a pain in my..." Rain was quieted by a Buffy glare.

Lorne walked into the lobby. "My candy Rain it's not nice to think that way." Lorne smiled at the teenage slayer.

"Ok, now let's go Connor before something does come out of the wall in that apartment." Gunn handed Connor a sword.

Rain groaned. "I want to go with though!" She pouted.

"Rain you can go some..." Buffy was cut short by something hitting the class doors leading out to the garden.

"I'll go check what it was." The teenage slayer ran fast opening them and walking out followed by a quick Connor. "It's a bird." Rain kneeled down looking at the bird in a crumple heap. "I seen birds on commercials do that but they have more sense to do that." Rain turned to look at the glass door where blood stained it.

"Rain..." Connor hurried over to her grabbing her arm.

"Hang on, we need to look more closely."

That a hero could save us
I'm not gonna stand here and wait
I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles
Watch as we all fly away
"Rain get your butt moving." Connor tugged her arm and the slayer turned around giving a yelp and hurrying in the glass doors and shutting it as all the windows and doors were beaten by the birds.

"What's going on?" Kali asked frightened.

"You talk to animals why don't you ask them?" Rain snapped.

"I talk to live ones." Kali glared at her.

"Wes, what's happening?" Angel and Spike ran down the stairs.

"I'm not sure." The ex-watcher shrugged.

The beaten noise stopped as Lela, Justice, Hailie, Marshall, Casey, Kyle, Starr, Zoey, Rave, Cammie, Reshawn, Keene, A.J., and Eric ran into the hotel.

Bran and Ara ran into the lobby. "The SIT's are here." Ara smiled.

"What are you all doing here?" Rain looked at them all.

"Justice, Lela, and Hailie are your SIT's." Ara laid a hand on her daughter's shoulder.

"SI what?" The young slayer turned to her.

"Slayer in training."

"Why do I get slayers in training?" Rain asked.

"Well they're Faith and yours. Buffy and Mallory are going to have some in Sunnydale too."

"Guys, I think we have a problem." The blood moved down the door Gabby was looking out and she could see out.

"What is it?" Wes asked his girlfriend.

"Um...this might not seem like a good thing but it's raining fire." Gabby turned back to them.

Now that the world isn't ending
It's love that I'm sending to you
It's in the love of a hero
And that's why I fear it won't do

They ran towards the doors looking out. "Wes, this isn't good." Fred stepped back.

A wicked laugh rang through the Hyperion. "You thought you got rid of me, you fools!" A familiar voice snickered. "Well, you were wrong!" Still pregnant Cordy appeared with the beast at her side. "The little slayer is going to pay." Everyone backed up.

Rain pulled the sword from Connor's hands. "Let's go for round two." The slayer charged at Cordy with the shinning blade.

"You little fool!" Cordy waved her hand and the sword flew from Rain's hands. "You can't beat me." The older woman stalked up to the teenage girl hitting her hard across the face.

"I don't think so!" Justice jumped on the woman's back.

"You kids need some manners!" She ripped Justice off and threw her to the floor back by the entrance. "Now stay away." Cordy waved her hand at the people in the room other than Rain, Angel tried to move closer to them but he was knocked down.

"Why don't you try to beat me with out magic?" Rain spit blood from her mouth.

"It's more fun this way." Cordy grinned kicking the slayer in her stomach.

"You're right it makes it easier to do this." Rain punched her across the face and swooped down tripping the seer, the slayer pinned her to the ground and hit her across the face again. "Now, maybe you will learn not to mess with me." Rain slammed the woman's shoulders down onto the floor when she tried to stand.

"You little brat!" Cordy roared with rage finding strength to throw Rain off into the staircase, which Rain rolled down a few steps and landed with a thud on the ground.

"You messed with the wrong slayer!" Cordy was directed to the entrance where Mallory stood with an crossbow, Willow stood next to a blond, Xander was followed by teenagers and a woman with short brown hair, Giles, Luther, Tyler, Chris, Dawn, Bradley, the Summers, and Rain's sisters.

Willow hurried to Kay with the blond following. "Kay between us three we have enough magic to do something." Willow grabbed the blonde's hand and Kay's.

"Wait before you do that!" Cordy yelled. "I think Ara should get revenge about what happened to her." Cordy held her hand up stopping them. Willow grunted trying to fight her magic.

And they say
That a hero could save us
I'm not gonna stand here and wait
I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles
Watch as we all fly away

Ara walked like a zombie picking up the sword which was taken from Rain and she walked over to Bran who had kneeled down like a zombie. "I loved you but you killed me and hurt my daughters." Ara stared straight ahead as she raised the sword.

"Mom, stop you don't want to do that!" Rain screamed.

"Mom stop it don't do this to dad!" Lily had tears coming out of her eyes.

"Mom we love you stop!" Ivy tried to move.

"Mom! Mom! Stop! We love you! He loves you!" The 9 sisters screamed as Ara brought the sword to Bran's neck and swung it back. "No! Mom we love you!" The girls screamed.

Ara blinked looking around she dropped the sword to the ground and Bran stood up hugging Ara. "What's going on?" Cordy walked towards the pair.

"Looks like we're stronger Cordy." Willow smiled.

"You little witch!" The seer glared.

"That's exactly what she is." Xander hugged Willow's waist.

"I will get my revenge!" With a snap Cordy disappeared.

And they're watching us
They're watching us
As we all fly away
And they're watching us
They're watching us

"Not that we're ungrateful for your guy's help but what are you doing here?" Buffy looked at them and Dawn walked towards her sister.

"Well Riley told us he would take care of Sunnydale and Spike told us about the whole pregnancy thing so we decided to come for a visit but when it started raining fire we were glad we came." Mallory hugged her best friend.

"We also wanted to tell you about the slayers in training." Luther fixed his tweed suit.

"They all will amaze you." Bradley smiled at the girls.

Casey glared especially at the SIT that was in short black shorts and a wife beater. "So, what are there names?" She asked with out interest.

"Name is Mercury and I see you have a staring problem." The girl in the wife beater smiled cockily.

"This is not the time for petty fights." Rain snapped. "My name is Rain and I was a slayer before I died." Rain nodded at Faith and Buffy.

"My name is Buffy I was the first slayer out of this little group we have here and I died twice." She looked at Faith.

"My name is Faith I went to prison died for a minute or so." The rogue slayer looked at the shocked faces.

"You died?" Buffy looked confused.

"Yeah, that's why they called Rain." Faith gave a duh expression.

"Nobody knew you died." Xander shook his head.

"I did." Giles took of his glasses.

As we all fly away

And they're watching us
They're watching us
As we all fly away

(I don't know any of the SIT's names on Buffy so I'm just going to make them up because I haven't seen season 7 yet. I am working on my other stories but I can do two things at once. I hope you liked it and yes Cordy is back. Please review!)
