Chapter Seventeen ~ I'll be True to You
~ New Years Eve Morning ~ Near Stonehenge, England
It was hustle and bustle out in England that day. Fred and Wesley's wedding was practically in pre-full swing. Lorne had gotten the Dingo's to come and play for them, while Wesley muttered complaints that he would have liked something British. Harmony was buzzing around indoors, happy that there wouldn't be any crosses at this wedding. Gunn was busy arguing with anyone that cared to argue with him, while Angel just shook his head from all the matrimonial nonsense. But that only gained him an elbow to the ribs from Nina. There was going to be an amazing reception after the ceremony –
Fred was laughing about how she looked him her dress with Willow, Tara and Buffy. Everything was all they could have wanted. It was suppose to be romantic – a marriage at Stonehenge. As for the children, well William, Rowena and Darcy were trying to manage to slip out of it. Getting caught by their shirt collars, Oz had managed himself to drag the two boys' back into the building with Rowena following sulkily behind. But that really wouldn't last too long though.
"Umm Ro – I'll be back in a few" William smiled, totally hiding something.
"Where are you going?" Rowena demanded.
"I have a present for you and I have to finish making it"
"Can I come?" Darcy asked eagerly.
"No"
"But why?" he whined.
"Because it's suppose to be a secret, but I do have a little job for you. Make sure that nobody comes looking for me. Tell Winnie and Wes that I'll be back in time for their wedding at sunset, which is – " he looked down at his watch. "- In about two hours. That'll be enough time"
William then took off in a sprint, with Rowena and Darcy watched as he headed towards Stonehenge. Rowena conveniently left Darcy and went to go check up on her mother. She saw all the beautiful flowers, causing her to think of when it would be her turn. Fred looked wonderful. Her mother and Tara had charmed the dress she wore to look as if it were made out of snowflakes. Sighing, Rowena entered the room.
"Hi dear! You want to help us?" Willow asked her daughter.
"I don't mind" Fred added. "It would be good to get to know you more, William kind of keeps you to himself most of the time"
"Yes a time for all us women to talk" Tara agreed.
"So what's it like being with William" Fred asked shifting in her seat and taking a book that Buffy was holding out to her.
"Well – its been different" Rowena replied honestly. "It's the best thing that ever could have happened. There was nobody really in my life like friends until William came. I remember that Uncle Xander told me that I would turn into a old maid if I didn't start to give the opposite sex a chance. Darcy would laugh saying 'once a shrew, always a shrew'. Well I showed him"
"Has he told you much about what his life was like when he was Spike?" Buffy asked carefully.
"Not much actually. I think it's still a sore spot for him, what he remembers that is. Maybe he would say more if Darcy wasn't latched onto all the time creating a third wheel, but then again Darcy met William first, so seniority rules"
"I never thought I would live to see the day" Buffy muttered standing up.
As Buffy left the room, Rowena was left with the remaining three.
"She's still upset I see" Willow said thoughtfully.
"What's Aunt Buffy upset about mom?"
"Well things didn't go to well the last time Darcy had William over at their house. It seems that Buffy went a little too far in comparing him to Spike"
"That's not good. At least what happened the last time didn't repeat" Tara agreed.
"Huh?"
"Not long after Spike became William, Angel had the audacity to do the very same thing. That can do a big number on a four year old" Fred started. "Angel didn't like him then, he never gave himself the chance to she that William was an entirely different person. I think that it was Wesley and I that kept that child from going dark"
"Then I'm ver grateful – Hey, I have an idea!" Rowena suddenly shouted, making the three older women wince.
Silently she raised her hands and concentrated on the fire within her heart. Ever so slowly threads of fire began sprout from her fingers. It then started to form into small intricate beads. Sweat rolled down her face as a bead in the shape of a flame bloomed and hardened. When it was done Rowena collapsed to the floor, panting wildly.
"This is for you" she whispered, holding out the necklace of pure firestone. "You protected the one I love, so this Fire Amulet shall protect you also"
Fred gingerly took the necklace from Rowena's hand just as the teen blacked out. Willow reached her daughter's side in seconds and was cradling her unconscious child.
"Must be some wedding present" Willow remarked looking up. "She just spent all her energy and she never done that before"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
~ Meanwhile ~
William was invoking his strongest powers. Unlike the potion he had created to look human, (which he had more use for then his normal one-hour change) he would create the ultimate spell for his love. Only the years that would pass could show the truth of it. He knew he couldn't hurt Rowena and to stay young while she grew old was an abomination.
The stone pillars that formed the ancient site began to glow with the power being draw into then and being poured into them. Slowly William raised his hands and began to speak.
"For a dearly beloved one, I shall have this done"
"The fight we fight, the truth we seek, I pledge my heat as I do speak"
"Fair Haired goddess, I grant thee a gift, my youth for your youth"
"Till the day you depart, so shall it be, a part of my heart"
"Near eternally young, I will age along with you my love, until me dear one has joined the stars above"
The magic light collected at the center and then poured down upon William. He collapsed onto the ground panted. Inside himself he could feel his cells return to their former pace of aging.
"So my love" he whispered and then promptly fainted.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Oz was having a hell of a time trying to wake his son up. Five minutes ago Darcy had fainted right there on him while helping him move a table. It only took a pitcher of water after that to wake him. Surprisingly in two different places, William and Rowena awoke with a startled to a felling as though they were begging splashed with ice clod water.
It didn't take long before the three were once again back together. Laughing about their 'little prophecy'. Rowena and Darcy had been debating on wither they should be the new Scooby Gang.
"I think we should be the new Scoobies" Rowena said leaning back in her seat by the door.
"No, that was already used" Darcy stated. "We need something groovy! Something that screams our names"
"We don't really need one do we? Your mom had the Scooby Gang and Angel had the Fang Gang, so why do we need one? Its not like we are super heroes or anything" William commented.
It was all about to start all over again, when a young man in his later twenties appeared at the door. Rowena scrambled back and the three kids just stared at him for a minute. Apart from his dark brown hair and eyes, he had a certain presence to him. William shivered; he had felt an aura like that before somewhere.
"Hi" the stranger greeted them. "I was wondering if Angel was here?"
"Yes, but he's busy at the moment" William said standing.
"Would I be able to talk with him? Its kind of urgent"
"How urgent?"
"Like twelve years too long kind of urgent"
"Do I know you?" William asked suddenly, this young man seeming more familiar.
"No you don't know me, but you know my father" he said. "I'm Connor"
William's mouth promptly fell open.
"You're Connor? Oh my bloody hell, you are Connor!"
"Who's Connor" Rowena dumbly asked, knowing certainly that the man in front of them was Connor.
"He's Angel's son. The gist of the story is that he was born to two vampire parents, was kidnapped and raised in the worst dimension of hell, returned a few weeks later as a teenager to kill Angel. Also he was crazy for most of the time, but then Angel had his memories erased and gave him a new life as part of his agreement in becoming the head of L.A.'s Wolfram & Hart"
"Oh"
"Head of L.A.'s Wolfram & Hart?" he asked in credulously. "Who are you anyway?"
"Me? Well I'm a great many people, but I'll just settle with this. I'm William Lancaster, Winnie's adoptive son"
"Winnie?"
"Winifred Burkle"
Connor nodded.
"Well that would explain who you knew about me. I came to find my father because no more then two weeks ago the spell put on me for the fake memories wore off. I sorta had no one left in the world other then my son and I wanted him to meet his grandfather"
"Cool. Mom didn't tell me anything like this but then again, how would she know," Danny said, earning confused glances from William Connor and Rowena.
William turned to Connor and asked the question that was on his mind.
"So where's you son?"
"Outside" he replied and the cupping his hands around his mouth, he yelled. "Shamus!"
A little boy about five or six bounded into the room where they were gathered. Like his father he had dark brown hair and eyes, but he looked so much like Angel. William couldn't point it out but this kid was something else. Shamus stopped at his father's side with a cheeky grin on his face.
"You want to go meet you grandfather?"
"Yep!"
"So?" Connor asked.
"Like I said before" William replied. "He's busy at the moment. Giving Wesley a pre-martial prep talk is one thing I never thought I would live to see that crazy vampire do"
"Marital?"
"Sure Wes is marring Winnie tonight"
Connor choked, trying to cut off a chuckle.
"He finally got he huh?"
"Yes. Oh do you know what Angel's last name is? He'll never tell me," William asked.
"Its O'Flanagan" Connor answered.
"That perfect. Now don't worry, I'm going to cast a simple invincibility spell over the both of you, then all you'll have to do is follow me"
After the spell was cast William, Rowena and Darcy lead the way for the invisible Connor and Shamus. They found Angel with Lorne and Gunn and Wesley five minutes later with Nina busy reading a book. William knew this was the best time to do what he had planed, at a time when Angel would least suspect it.
"Liam O'Flanagan! What in all the realms of insanity are you doing?" he yelled out in a mock Irish accent.
Angel whirled around to find William and his friends smiling laughingly at him. If a vampire could have blushed, Angel would have.
"Who told you that name!" he growled indignantly.
"An invisible man" William answered with a joking smirk.
Connor laughed with Shamus giggling at his side. Angel turned, trying to find where the laughter at his expense was coming from without success.
"Tell me or your grounded"
"That's up to Winnie to decide my punishments"
"Now!"
"So do you want to come out now?" William asked a blank space of air.
"No let his squirm a little more" replied a voice from out of no where, but William shook his head.
"I think he'll spontaneously combust if you don't"
"Oh fine, but it was fun while it lasted. I have to hand it to you, you are good a tricks"
William snapped his fingers twice and two figures appeared. Angel gasped at the sight of Connor and involuntarily stepped back. Lorne, Wesley and Gunn stared at Connor open mouthed, having just remembered him for the first time, the spell over them having been broken.
"Hi dad, how's it hanging? Been a while since I last saw you"
"Connor?"
"Well dad I would like you to meet your grandson Shamus" Connor said.
Shamus ran from Connor's side to launch himself up and into Angel's arms. The vampire was shocked, staring intently at the little boy that hugged him. It ended with a grin that reminded Angel of William at age and then it hit, he was a grandfather!! Speechless, Angel placed his grandson back down onto the ground, where he then ran back to his father. Connor smiled and turned back to Angel.
"So – is it okay if we stay for the wedding?"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Fred looked stunning and Wesley, with a deep blush of scarlet still managed to look very distinguished. Their wedding at Stonehenge was a picturesque setting with just a dash of firefly light – it was so romantic from the many people thinking romantic thoughts.
"I now pronounce you husband and wife"
Once they had kissed, a now Mr. And Mrs. Wyndam-Pryce turned to their cheering audience and Fred turned her back as tossed her bouquet as high and far as she could muster. It soared down amongst all the grabbing ladies and broke apart. On half was caught by Nina whom after giving Angel a sweet smile, Connor and Shamus broke down into gales of laughter. The second half however, landed in the least suspected hands: Harmony's! The vampiress gave of a giggled shriek and jumped up and down. The only thing that caused her to calm down was the sight of poor Gunn trying to slip out of the crowd unnoticed. Unsuccessfully, he was caught.
William sat back snickering with Rowena.
"Now you told me earlier that you had a present for me" she poked at his side.
"Oh right – " he grinned.
"What is it"
"Me!"
"What? Are you pulling my leg, because if you are it isn't funny"
"No really pet " William insisted. "How else do you think that we are going to get married too someday if I still look like a scrawny teenager?"
"Now what makes you think that I would marry * you *" Rowena mocked.
"Because you can't live without me luv, that's why. No honestly I preformed a spell that'll allow me to age along with you"
Rowena raised an eyebrow in confusion.
"Well since I'm Dhampire I won't age at really any rate, so I made it so I could. I wanted to be true to you" he explained.
She kissed him graciously on the cheek before they started to watch as everybody mingled. Talking and laughing, everyone looked happy at the moment and even though most of them would be returning to depressing jobs, they made the most of it. Angel's little family unit was looking good. Connor seemed to have worked out the old kinks that made both his and his father's lives miserable. Harmony was trying to kiss a protesting Gunn until she won out due to her superior strength. Surprising though, Gunn didn't try to fight it any further, but accepted it! –
"Their all crazy I tell you!" Darcy growled storming past. "One wedding is all it takes before all the adults become infected"
"He needs a girlfriend" Rowena whispered after he passed.
"Give * her * a few years. You don't want that poor girl * he * ends up with to be traumatized now do you? He needs to mature a little bit first"
"Of course not. What was I thinking?"
"I don't know, but right now I'm thinking about cake. Beat you there luv"
Giving Rowena a quick kiss, William sprang forward and raced towards Wes and Winnie's enormous cake, with Rowena only managing to keep up.
"Not on you're life!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Well – how was that? I'm not entirely sure if I managed the end very well, but oh well. I was in a rust to have this finished, so if things are a mess, then oops! Bringing Connor back was an idea I have had for a while, so I hope it worked out all right.
What do you think? – Should I bring Gunn and Harmony together for a laugh? Please tell me what you think. State either yah or nah in a review or just a note sent striated to my e-mail.
I would like to also to ask if anyone has any other suggestions. I would be mush appreciated. Well the story will not be updated until after my Spring Brake, which will end after the 21st of March. Oh and that specific day (the first day of Spring) will be a big Happy 17th Birthday to me hooray!!! Thanks for reading. Later! *
