Part Two: Danger Grows
The main entrance of the Hyperion burst open as Connor ran though, followed closely by Wesley and Gunn. They immediately went to where Cordy was struggling to get to her feet.
"What happened?" Wesley asked as Connor helped her get seated and comfortable.
"It was Angelus..." She began.
"Where's Fred?" Wesley asked, interrupting her and getting a hostile look from Gunn.
"I...I don't know." Hanging her head. Cordy related the story of what happened to the others.
"So he went off to hunt down Fred?" Gunn asked in shock when Cordy had finished speaking.
"And Lilah." Cordy replied.
"We have to do something." Gunn said pleadingly as he turned to look at the others.
"We will." Wes replied as he walked over to the weapons cabinet. He took out several small bottles of holy water that Angel kept handy, as well as a dagger and a crossbow. "We will do a sweep of the hotel, starting with this floor and working our way up."
"I'm staying with Cordelia." Connor said defiantly as he got to his feet. "Angelus might come back for her."
Wesley looked at the pair briefly before speaking. "Far enough. Gunn, lets move."
Wes and Gunn silently crept alone the second floor of the hotel, opening the door of every room and peering in as they did so. They rounded a bend and both let out a gasp of surprise. Lying motionless ahead of them was Lilah.
"Lilah..." Wes said quietly as himself and Gunn made their way to her. Bending down beside her, he saw the vicious wound on her neck and knew at once what had happened.
"She is dead." He said, looking at Gunn as he got back to his feet.
"We need to find Fred, before its too late." Gunn said as he adjusted the way he held his battle-axe.
"Yes we do and this is taking too long." Wes replied, pausing to think. "We will split up, you finish the rest of this floor and I will go on a head and check the third floor." He added.
"Hold on a second..."
"Gunn we don't have time for this, Fred is in serious danger. If you cared for her half as much as you claim too then you'll stop whining and start looking." With that Wes turned and made his way to the third floor.
"Why so afraid Fred?" Angelus asked as he moved even closer towards her. "Anyone would think your about to die...oh wait, you are." He laughed his cold and merciless laugh.
Fred desperately searched around for anything that could be used to defend herself with but found nothing. Anything of use was beyond her reach.
"Looking for a way out?" He asked mockingly. "Well you never know Fred, perhaps your boy will show up and save the day. Question is, which one do you want it to be."
"Shut up." Fred replied, looking up at him defiantly.
Angelus laughed again. "Bet you would just love it to be Wesley right? That would give you reason to give him what you both want. Bending over his desk, taking it like a bitch. Hey, why not get Gunn to watch? Add a little insult to injury whilst indulging in your dirty fantasy."
Throwing the knife to the far side of the room, Angelus then reached down and grabbed hold of both of Fred' arms. Pulling her back to her feet, he pinned her to the wall.
His eyes drifted over her trembling body as he smirked. "Don't worry, I'll be gentle, while at least to start with and I'll make sure to give Wes all the intermit details, so you don't have too."
Vamping out, he lent forward and prepared to bite her neck, weakening her before his assault however, he stopped when the door of the room was kicked open and Wesley entered carrying a crossbow.
