Chapter 13: Doyle
-----yeah yeah yeah corny joke alert!----
While roaming the school Spike found himself infront of one of the classrooms, when all of a sudden a ghost popped out of one of the classroom wall. " You're no student! When did they start letting vampires roam the halls? Wait a minute don't I know you?" the ghost looked oddly familiar to Spike though he couldn't rememeber where he had seen this person before. He didn't know many ghosts.
" Bloody right I'm not a student! Plus I have a soul its not like I'm evil anymore, so sod off! I'm sorry to break it to ya though don't know anyone whose a ghost." Spike started walking away then it hit him. He remembered where he saw this person before. " Wait a minute! I know who you are, Cordelia was all torn up about you when I joined Angel's team. Your Doyle! What are you doing at Hogwarts? Hey weren't you there when I first came to L.A. to torture Angel?"
" Yeah I was. I'm friends with Sir Nicholas he's not such a bad guy. When Dumbledore told me that some of my old buddies would be here he invited me to live at the castle. From what I understand I've missed some of them.You got a soul what happened? Don't tell me gypsies cursed you too. How is Cordelia by the way?I've missed her." Doyle saw the look on Spikes face at the mention of Cordelia and knew it wasn't going to be good news.
" No Gypsies didn't curse me. I obtained my soul all on my own, I lost it for a time but I became a champion. I saved the world from an Apocalypse, and well Ange,l well not exactly Ange,l but Fred gave me my soul back. Lovely girl. I'm sorry to be the one to break this to you Doyle but----um---Cordelia didn't make it. She became a goddess and was burdened with this kid who tried to end the world. She went into a mystical acoma and didn't recover. I'm sorry. However Angel and Darla had a kid, a boy named Connor he goes here." Spike tried to turn the conversation around.
" It's ok there was nothing you could do about it. Cordelia would of wanted to go out peacefully just like she did. Wait a minute did you say that Angel and Darla had a son?!" It just dawned on Doyle the last sentence Spike had said.
" Yeah I know impossible. Connor was predestined though, suppose to save the world yada yada yada. Loved the kid for a while when he was all evil and trying to kill Angel. Eventually they got tired of fighting one another and now you never see them apart. Well until now when Connor decided that he wanted to stay here." Spike started to walk, he had to stick to the shadows since the sun was a killer.
" How did you save the world?" Doyle was really intrested. He thought Angel was going to be the one that would be the vampire in the prophecy. He heard people talking about it once in L.A.
" I had to wear this cleansing gem that killed all these ubervamps. I died and Wolfram and Hart brought me back and Fred found out a way to coporialize me. Hey maybe she could help you out a little." Spike started to walk towards the Arithmacy classroom.
"Wait a minute Wolfram and Hart the evil lawfirm company that wants Angel dead? Oh by the way I heard that you were the assistant teacher to the Muggle Studies class why aren't you there?"
" They offered Angel W&H since they were tired of fighting him so Angel is using it for good. I'll go when I wanna it's not like Andrew really needs the help the git. He loves teaching and the kids love him, when he's ready to teach the rock n' roll generation then I'll help, heck I'll teach the little bits. " Spike walked up the set of stairs with Doyle gliding at his side.
Once they reached the third floor they turned left and went into a classroom. Fred was in the process of teaching a class so they sat in the back waiting for it to end. Once the class ended the students left all saying hi to Spike and just staring at Doyle. " Why is everyone staring at me, they've all seen a ghost before!"
" Your new, they're just not use to you yet, don't worry by the time dinner rolls around everyone will know your here and no one will stare at you." Spike got up and walked over to Fred. " Hey luv, I was wondering if you could work your mojo on my friend here."
" Work my what? Spike I'm not like that I don't...Mojo? What are you talking about?" Fred look at his friend.
" Just a saying luv. You know the coporial thing you did for me I was wondering if you would be so kind as to do that to my friend Doyle."
" Doyle....Wait a minute! Angel and Cordelia's Doyle!" Fred now looked at Doyle shocked she never met him but heard loads of stuff from Cordelia about him.
" Yeah that Doyle, now what about it luv could you give him the hook up?" Spike gave Fred his puppy dog face. She could never resist his puppy dog face and he knew it.
" Sure I'll talk to Dumbledore about it, and well see what we can do. I can't promise anything though it took me a while to figure out how to do it and it might require calling up Angel and the others." Fred looked at Doyle while saying this.
" I'm all up for it, being dead is kind of a bummer. However could we not tell Angel or the others and just suprise them? Plus if it doesn't work out I don't wanna get peoples hopes up. " Doyle wanted to see Angel's face when he showed up at Wolfram and Hart. That itself was still a weird concept to Doyle.
" Ok we'll keep it a secret, but I still might need to contact Wolfram and Hart and get everything to create the thing again." Fred said then walked out of the office and headed to Dumbledores office.
