AUTHOR'S NOTE: Buffy will come into the story in this chapter. I'd like to
say thank you to everyone who has given such nice feed back.
"Wh... what are you doing here?" Angel asked trying to lose his dazed feeling, due to that fact he has only found out that his ex – girlfriend had a baby about four years ago without telling him.
"That isn't answering my question, so I'll ask you again who's Buffy?" The girl didn't look happy, and she didn't exactly feel it either. All she had heard was that a girl named Buffy could be her mother, and that this 'vampire' could be her father.
Buffy? What kind of name was that?
"Buffy could be your mum!!" Cordelia said with a big smile on her face, trying to cover up the tension in the room.
"Cordelia, we don't know that for sure. I mean if that were true then this girl would only be about four years old." Angel said wishing Cordelia hadn't said what she had.
"Hello! This girl is still in the room, and I would say four years is about right give or take a few months." The girl said looking a bit offended because she had been ignored.
"I know I'm no expert, but you more like sixteen than four." Cordelia looking at the girl with scepticism in her eyes.
"That's right your not an expert, so you don't know what you're talking about" The girl said with disgust.
"I think I know my own age. What I want to know is what your doing here and claiming that you know who my mother is." The girl said redirecting her gaze back to Angel.
What am I supposed to say to her, that her mother is a vampire slayer and that her father is a vampire with a soul? Or maybe he isn't I don't know that for sure she's mine. I mean Buffy could have slept with someone else. Well, that's a great thought.
"Well, we were trying to find out who your mother was. So it would lead us to you. We wanted to know how come you were so strong and where you came from." Angel said gently as he took a slow step towards the girl. But he automatically regretted it as the girl took a fast step back and took up a battle sense.
What is she afraid of?
"Why does that have anything to do with you. Why are you taking such a big interest in my life?" The girl asked with a questioning look in her eyes.
Cordelia finally found her voice "Well, I get visions of people in trouble or that need our help and I saw you. So that's what we're doing here. We want to help you." The girl had a sudden smile on her face.
"Yeah, I know. You've already told me a couple of times. And like I've already said I don't need your help. I only want to find my mum."
Then the girl got a defeated look in her eyes. "But if you know her then I guess you are the only one that can help me. So where does she live?"
IN SUNNYDALE
"Dawn hurry up! You're going to be late for school." Buffy shouted upstairs to her sister. Buffy was tired. Now that her mum was gone, she had twice the amount of responsibility she did and that isn't including her slayer duties. She now has to keep the house tidy and make sure that there is always food on the table. Which means she had to get a job. Unfortunately the only one she could find was working for the DoubleMeat Palace. And on top of all of that she had to make sure that no demon from hell destroyed the world.
