Disclaimer: Don't own them. The story is mine but if it seems like yours tell me and I'll change it if you want.

A/N: Here is the new chapter ppl, thank you everyone for R&Ring. SORRY IT TOOK SO LONG

Grace: Yes, it is the year 2398 but I am making the technology the same for the sake of my sanity. Angel has been reincarnated over and over for the past 400 years and in this incarnation he is a demon hunter and Faith is the slayer along side with him and their watcher is Giles whom they call Rupert. Thanks for R&Ring!!! You are the best!

Tariq: Thanks for the review and I am trying my best but school and parents sort of get in the way.

angel's kat: Actually this was an original at least I thought so, thank you for pointing that out. Can you please tell me where you have read a story similar to this? I want to make sure the author is ok with this. Thank you sooooooo much!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE TELL ME WHERE YOU HAVE READ SOMETHING LIKE THIS!!! I THINK I'LL DIE IF I DON'T DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. And thank you for the idea and I have taken that idea into consideration I am going to make them start dating but Dawn is Buffy's sister right? And Buffy has never been reincarnated before so if you could help me out with who's little sister Dawn is going to be I will be very grateful. Conner would be Angel's, I think. So please review and help me with those small glitches.

Andrea: I did my best to get the reactions right but I still hope that it wasn't a disappointment to you. Thanks for R&Ring, please keep on reading

Shayla-BA: Thank you I am so glad you think so. I was wondering if I should continue the dairy thing but now I am.

SOULMATES MEET AGAIN

May 8th, 2000

I'm in a cell in "jahan' kha" I have an escape plan but I need a girl called "Lidiya" out first, I need her to trust me and come and if she doesn't I am forced to dramatic actions. Whistler is sitting beside me, still the same though I had improved his fashion choices, he keeps on nagging and it's sure annoying the hell out of me! I wonder if he gets paid for this. I don't know why I'm stuck with him!!! This is really uncomfortable.

I saw Angel yesterday, or a glimpse of him anyways, he's earned his shanshu, now happily engaged to a girl named Maria and everyone has lived happily ever after. Ironic how they mourn you for three days and move on with their lives. But that's okay, I don't blame them. I would have moved on too if I were them, I just wished Angel would have mourned for me for at least four days. But since when did I have a genie flying around with me?

, Buffy

Faith and Angel were in the cemetery again, but the vampire population had went down hill again. They'd have to ask Giles about that.

Angel stopped, sensing vampires. More, six or seven.

"DUCK!" He yelled as they all came out of the shadows. Oops, there was ten.

The two fought for a good while but had only managed to kill five. These vampires were old, very old, or so they seemed.

The vampires were winning, there had been a bunch of close calls for Faith and Angel was starting to worry about her, she hadn't healed from the last apocalypse.

Then Angel went flying to the ground with a red head vamp woman on top of him, in game face. Faith soon followed suit.

They both prepared for the worst, waiting for the pain that came with being bitten by the vampire. The closed there eyes shut.

Then the vamps on top of them were both turned into dust by a speed that neither had ever seen in all the vamps and apocalypses they had faced.

They both got up and realized it was a girl, looking not much older than them. She was blond and Angel, squinting, could see that she had green eyes.

In a matter of seconds all of the vampires were dust with just the girl left.

"You two should go, it's not very safe, I'll handle things from here."

"Who the hell are you and what the hell do you think you're doing?" Faith asked, stepping up, she couldn't bring herself to punch the girl, something about this blond stranger made her have immense respect and admiration for her, like a young mother or something.

Mentaly Buffy smiled, her plan was working "A friend." Then she made the classy exit that she had mastered and always admired with Angel-he always made a very classy exit even when he was leaving her.

"So, who do you think she is?" Willow asked the next day as the gang was sitting in the cafeteria the next day.

"Don't know" Angel said, he hadn't been able to get the girl out of his mind something about her made him attracted to her, it seemed as though he had known her from sometime before.

"Was she hot?" Xander asked, getting a smack from his protective girl friend.

"Very" Faith gave him an indignant look and every other girl in the group rolled their eyes while the men smirked,

"Angel!" Faith screamed

Oh crap, he thought "Maybe we should ask Rupert, he would know."

Then as one they got up and made their way to the library, when they opened the door with Angel in the lead they were surprised at what they saw.

A beautiful blonde girl, unnaturally pale with dark clothes on made so that she could blend in the darkness with no effort. Angel immediately recognized her as the girl form the other night.

"What the hell are you doing here?" It seemed by what Faith just said that she had too.

The girl turned to them, calm. Her green eyes, beautiful, if they had not been so empty.

Buffy had been waiting in the library for Giles to come in and when he did he got in to the denial streak and Buffy finally getting fed up with the whole 'how do I know that you are not just a demon who likes to stalk people?' she finally used her powers as a "higher being" and unlocked his memories of his previous life 400 years ago. After much tears and hugs-all from him- and so many 'I am so proud of you' s they had finally been able to form a plan. And Buffy sensing the gang coming had told him so. Now they were sitting-with Whistler- waiting for them to come. The door opened with Angel in the lead and the moment she saw him she felt a wave of emotions go through her, making her heart-though it had stopped beating all those years ago-want to be once more wrapped in his loving arms. Her face, nonetheless, showed nothing, her eyes had been cleared of emotions, leaving those once lively green eyes now as blank as the darkness of hell. She had made a decision, one that she would not easily break, that was that she would not let her heart be as vulnerable as she had let it be when she was still the naïve Buffy, meeting Angel and believing that good would always win and that love would last through anything. No, she would not risk the heart brake. Not anymore.

She could tell that Angel was feeling a connection though he couldn't place it and she also knew that he recognized her as the 'friend' from last night.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Just like she had predicted Faith said those very words.

And she turned to them with a calm look on her, but that wasn't a mask she was actually very calm.

"We are waiting" Cordelia said (Wow! The Queen C still stands)

The girl stood up, making the group take a step back, and she smirked seeing how afraid of her the gang was.

She went over to a shelf and took out a book without even looking to see what it was, she then went back to her seat and sat down gracefully and started flipping through it as if she was searching for something.

"If you must know" She started without even glancing up "I came here to talk to Giles, not that it is any of your business."

"Who are you?" Wesley asked oh so smoothly.

(Can you say blunt?) "I'm a demon sent from the fires of hell to kill everyone on this planet and take over the world." She kept on going from page to page on that book; it was pretty thick which only meant that it would take her a long time to get through it. She noticed the group stiffening and some going into fight trances; she glanced up and sighed "I'm here to help you guys on an apocalypse."

"What do you mean an apocalypse?" Doyle asked

She was back to starring at the book "disaster, catastrophe, day of reckoning, Judgment Day, end of the world, destruction, a device or being that brings the end of human life, take your pick" Luckily for Buffy, her dry humor was still very much intact except multiplied by a hundred so that was the only humor she had.

"We know" Angel said through gritted teeth "what an apocalypse is."

"We killed one ourselves, you know" Faith couldn't help but point out, with a grin.

"Really, now? Well then I am very happy for you, I'll make sure to send you a box of chocolate later for congratulations. Giles, how much is this book? I'm thinking I'm buying it, if you'll sell" She had stopped flipping through the book and was now leaning back in her seat, starring at a blank page partway in the middle of the book.

Giles made his way to the table and looked at the book, he saw the blank page and realized that that particular page was the one with information about Angelus. The very same one that he had showed her when she had first discovered Angel to be a vampire and now the pages have been whipped clean though not eliminated. He gave his ex-charge a sympathetic look. "You can keep it, it means more to you than it would ever mean to me."

She looked up at him and for the first time in so many years she smiled at a person other than Whistler and really meant it, "Thank you,"

Giles smiled back, having remembered everything and turned to his charges to explain everything.

Buffy tuned out Giles knowing that he was going on and on about how he would figure out everything and that he was giving them a speech about how they could win and how it would always be remembered-she knew this from experience. The truth was though that they wouldn't be, they would go into a watcher's journal soon to be forgotten until somehow a familiar apocalypse raises in the lives of new slayers.

She looked at the blank pages in front of her, the pages that used to be filled with information about Angelus and though it all was erased she remembered it all perfectly. So many times, after Angel had left her Buffy had snuck into the library and looked at it. Sometimes she would fall asleep staring at it. She knew these pages better than she knew her alphabets. They were her only link to Angel after he left. She remembered the images going through her head with Angel and her. And then she looked up, feeling Angel's eyes on her and she also remembered another thing, something that Angel had said to her so many times.

"Forever that's the whole point." She closed the book and tucked it under her elbow, there was no such thing as forever.

A/N: Hope you like this, it's almost midnight and my brother keeps on telling me to go to sleep. So yeah please R&R.

Here are the pairings that I am thinking:

Buffy/ Angel Fred/ Gunn Faith/ Spike Tara/ Wesley Willow/Oz Anya/Xander Cordelia/Doyle Dawn / Connor

If anyone has any objections please R&R and tell me, please and thank you.
