Author's Note: Okay here's where the story gets going...it may seem slightly
confusing, but hopefully it will be good too! ENJOY! Please R & R.
Chapter Summary: This is now technically "8th season" of BTVS. What if all the kids showed up in Rome with Buffy? Only in this reality Buffy doesn't know them. *Recap: Angel is in LA (Season 5 ATS), Parker is 'who knows where', Riley is married somewhere, and Spike is "dead" to Buffy, but really in LA (Season 5 ATS).
Buffy sat in her house thinking back over that week. Life was anything but hectic now. She no longer had to slay, Willow, Xander and her could hang out whenever they wanted, and Dawn could live a normal, well semi-normal life. Life was, for once, good.
Rome was very different to the small town of Sunnydale where she had spent the last seven years of her life, but it was nice. For once she didn't have a boyfriend, or anything to be tied down to. With the exception of her job as a waitress. And a waitress in Rome makes a lot more money than working at The Double Meat Palace. Just the thought of that made Buffy shudder.
"Hey Buff, how's it going?" Dawn asked as she walked in the room and plopped down on the bed.
"Good. Do you like it here Dawnie?" Buffy asked.
"In this house?" Dawn answered with a confused look on her face.
"No silly, in Rome? Do you like living in Rome?" Buffy asked.
"Well duh. Okay one, you'd know if I didn't like it here, and two, hello! No vampires, no demons, no 'Apocalypse Now'. Much safer than Sunnydale, I'd say. Yeah I do like it Buff, why?" Dawn asked concerned now.
"It is better isn't it?" Buffy said smiling at her sister.
"What's better?" Xander asked.
"Rome." Dawn answered.
"Yeah a lot less dangerous eh?" Xander said laughing and taking a seat in a chair.
"What is?" Willow asked.
"Geez you guys are nosy." Buffy said smiling.
"That's what were here for!" Xander grinned.
"Uh huh, and what's safer?" Willow asked sitting opposite Buffy.
"Rome." Dawn said again.
"Yeah no weird things ever happen in Rome. Kinda nice act..." Willow was cut off by a boom followed by a cloud of smoke.
"What the?" Dawn asked jumping besides Buffy.
"Mommy?" A small voice called out.
***
"Whose there?" Xander asked, standing in front of Willow as if to protect her.
The cloud started to clear and there stood a little girl with dark brown eyes and dirty blonde hair. She looked about two-years-old.
"Hi there." Dawn said standing up and moving closer to the girl.
"Who you?" the girl asked cautiously. "Who this mommy?"
"Mommy?" Buffy Willow asked.
"Whose your mommy little girl?" Dawn asked.
"Mama, Buffy. Buffy the Vampy Slay Slay." She replied with a smile that showed she was proud of her mother.
A shocked look was on all of their faces as the little girl sat cross- legged on the carpet.
"Are you still mad Mommy?" She asked as her eyes got big and teary. "Sowwy mama."
"Um it's okay." Buffy said timidly.
"What's your name?" Xander asked.
"You silly Uncy." She said giggling.
"Well I don't know your name." Dawn tried.
"Angie. Angela Summers." She said, mispronouncing her full name slightly.
"Angie, that's a nice name. I'm Dawn. Dawn Summers." Dawn replied.
Angie's little head shot up. "You have Angie's second name too." Angie said smiling.
"Yes, I am Buffy's sister, so I guess I am your Aunt." Dawn said sitting down near Angie.
"Like Willow." Angie said. "Auntie Willow."
"Um yes, yes that's me." Willow said playing along. She shot a confused look at Buffy and Xander, but they looked as lost as she did.
"Dawnie will you watch Angie for a second." Buffy said.
"Sure." Dawn replied. "You stay with me a sec Angie. I'll take good care of you."
The other three left the room quickly.
"What in the world is going on here?" Buffy asked. "Do you remember me having a kid? It's usually something a mother remembers."
"You'd think." Xander said wrinkling his nose. "Whew bad mental image."
"Xander please. There is a little girl in there who thinks I am her mother. But it's not me." Buffy said.
"Maybe this is one of those funky future things. Like she's the kid you're supposed to have in the future." Willow said.
"That's freaky." Xander said.
"I say we call Giles. He'll know what to do." Buffy said. She grabbed the phone and thanked God Giles was visiting that week with Andrew.
"Hello?" A voice picked up.
"Andrew? Hey its Buffy is Giles there? It's urgent."
"Um yeah hold on."
"Hello?" Giles voice rang over the line.
"Giles there's a problem here." Buffy went on to explain the story.
"Oh I see." Giles replied.
"Well? What is it then? I mean what is she?" Buffy asked.
"Well it's hard to say really, but since she knows you, Willow and Xander; hmm. I'd say maybe she's from an alternate universe." Giles said solemnly.
"What? Giles that's ridicu...well no it makes sense actually." Buffy said.
"Maybe somewhere else you have a child named Angie, and she has been sent here to you now for some unknown reason." Giles said.
"Oh. Can you come over?" Buffy asked.
"Yes I'll be right over." Giles said as he hung up.
***
"Oh my gosh Buffy! Um Angie has something to ask you." Dawn said, obviously trying not to crack up.
"What?" Buffy asked Dawn.
"Mommy?" Angie asked.
"Yeah honey." Buffy said awkwardly.
"Mommy, where's daddy?" She asked.
"Daddy? Um I um don't really know." Buffy said.
"Angie, your mom is acting silly huh. She wants to play the forgetting game, so why don't you remind her who your daddy is okay." Dawn said now desperately holding back laughter.
"Okay. My daddy Angel. He was a Vampy, but a good Vampy, but now he's a man again. Yup yup, daddy is man." Angie said giggling.
The look on Buffy's face changed to a look of horror.
"Angel...Angel is your daddy. Are we...are we married." Buffy asked.
"Duh." The two-year-old blurted out, then giggled, "Your very silly mama. You and daddy are in lovely. And that's how you made me. Yup yup, in lovely." She said giggling more. Now Dawn was laughing too. And Xander and Willow were holding their laughter back too.
"Hey guys." Giles said as he too walked in.
"Grandpa Giles!" Angie said hugging Giles' leg.
"Oh hi there...Angie." Giles said, picking up the toddler.
"Well we have to make another, um less comforting call I'm afraid." Buffy said, turning white and heading out the door.
"What was that about?" Giles asked, playing along with Angie's game.
"She has to call the babies father." Xander said laughing hysterically now.
"Yeah she has to call Angel!" Dawn joined in.
