Notes 2: The song that has a small appearence in the beginning is "How Can I Not Love You" by Joy Enriquez

***

//Cannot touch, Cannot hold, Cannot be together
Cannot love, Cannot kiss, Cannot love each other
Must be strong and we must let go
Cannot say what our hearts must know\\

Angel carried Buffy through the passage that only seemed to get longer and longer. It seemed like he was constantly wanting to stop and take a break but his pain wouldn't let him. Though the path set before him just seemed to go on forever with no real sign of even stopping.

//How can I not love you
What do I tell my heart
When do I not want you here in my arms
How does one walks away
From all of the memories
How do I not miss you when you are gone\\

Angel leaned against the wall for a second to rest his arms as he placed Buffy gently at his feet. Kneeling over her he brushed careless strands of hair out of her eyes. "I'll bring you back to me Buffy..." Angel stretched his arms and gently picked her pack up and once again started his quest down the long unwavering passage.
Hours seemed to have past when he started hearing whispers and voices causing Angel to turn quickly. But when he looked there was always nothing there...just white marble started out before him for as long as he could see. "Hello?" Then he heard it...a giggle. Angel turned toward the sound but again there was nothing. Shaking it off Angel started back in the direction he was heading when the giggling and whispers seemed to just get louder as he progressed.

//Cannot trip, Cannot share sweet and tender moments
Cannot feel how we feel, Must pretend it's over
Must be brave and we must go on, Must not say
What we no longer long\\

The walls around Angel seemed as if they were beginning to melt a way for vines of ivy seemed to be reaching out along the walls. Angel's chocolate brown eyes took in all his surroundings as he began to see shadows beginning to move behond the walls. Why all of a sudden he was getting the option to see through the walls he wasn't to sure but it had to mean one thing. He was almost there.
Angel stopped when he saw the hall suddenly stop before him. He could have sworn there was still a great distance for him to go, but the walls just stopped. Taking a quick step down Angel found himself feeling like he was thrust back into Roman times. Everyone was wearing toga style clothing and some even had vines of ivy wrapped around their heads.
Angel was startled when a little girl with her blond hair up in pig tails pulled gently on his coat. Looking down he looked own into small pools of green and watched as she started pulling him. Taking her que Angel walked behind her with her tiny fingers still entwined in his leather jacket. "What...?" Angel was quickly interrupted when the little girl held her finger up to her lips motioning for him to remain silent.

//How can I not love you
What do I tell my heart
When do I not want you here in my arms
How does one walks away
From all of the memories
How do I not miss you when you are gone//

The little girl lead him down a golden path where he found himself standing at a Roman style temple with gold trimming along the steps and pillars. When they reached the girls stopped and smiply pointed at the closed doors before turning and running in the opposite direction where she quickly joined a group of little children who sat and watched him as he proceeded.
Angel looked back to the people as they watched him before using his foot to gently open the doors into the temple. His eyes grew wide with the splendors he saw before him. Everything he layed eyes on was laced with gold even the carpet his feet rested upon. Slowly Angel preceeded up the carpet his eyes still searching out the wonders he saw before him when he came to a large, ornate, room with six similarly dressed people sat before him in large golden thrones. Like the Oracles they were gold in color with blue patterns flowing over their bodies.
"Come before us lower being." Which one talked Angel was unsure since the voice seemed to boom everywhere at once. Swallowing hard Angel stepped forward.
"Who...?" Angel started but was quickly cut off.
"SILENCE! Lower being you are not to talk unless we ask for your words. We are the collective. We as you have come to know us are the powers that be. We control and see all. We know why you are here." Angel circled as the voice seemed to boom around the room intensifing his confusion. "Now lower being, you want to bargin for the life of one Buffy Summers, but we must ask you...do you know what you ask?"

//How can I not love you
Must be brave and we must be strong
Cannot say what we no longer long\\

"I know only what I want." Angel answered firmly.
"You are very curious lower being. This is twice now you have come for yourself."
"No this is not like that at..." Angel's mouth kept moving but he heard no voice exiting his lips.
"We did not ask for you to speak. You came before us in the past about turning you back into a warrior, now you beg for the life of a former Slayer. Now we will repeat our question. Do you know what you ask?"
"Like I said before I know only what I want. If you could turn me back I'm sure you can find a way to bring Buffy back."
"What if the Slayer doesn't want to return with you?"
"I don't understand..."
"When ones soul leave the body it goes to another, though be it somewhere else. How do you know she won't want to leave the life she is in now?"
"I don't know, but that is a chance I'll have to take. I'll do anything."
"We will strike a bargin with you. You will be sent to her current reality. With only the memory that you are searching for your love. But you will be stripped of your powers and the memories of why you are looking and who exactly it is you are looking for."
"I don't understand."
"You will not know why you are looking for Buffy...but you will know to look for her...something inside of you is going to keep you on your quest...you will have 2 weeks to find your Slayer and win her heart. If you fail you will return to this reality with no memoriy of the Slayer at all. Is that something you are willing to risk?"
"I will risk anything for her."
"It is done." All six beings saved their hand and the energy in the room began to swirl around Angel and Buffy as a large flash filled the room. "Good luck" the collective whispered as Angel disappeared.

"Angel come on we are gonna be late for the show?" Angel ran a brush through his hair as his sister stood tapping her foot in the doorway to the bathroom. "What is with you, I swear you are the only guy I know who sill sit in front of the mirror for hours."
"I'm not sure Ashen but there is just something about a mirror." Angel winked as he grabbed his three-quarter leather duster and followed his sister out of the house. "What are we seeing today anyway?"
"I don't know mom and dad just said to meet them at the theater. So I'm hoping it is a new release." Ashen smiled as her dark brown eyes peered out from under her dark brown bangs. "Besides it can't be as bad as the movie we saw last week with them."
"No kidding." Angel laughed as he hopped into his car his sister getting in on the passanger side.

***

Angel and Ashen walked up to the movie theater waiting for their parents to show when Angel backed up hitting someone. "Oh sorry..." When he turned around he found a short blond with light green eyes looking up ath im. "I'm sorry..."
"It's okay, now harm done."
"Buffy are you okay?" A man with short blond hair ran up behind Buffy catching her off guard.
"Sure Mark we just bumped into each other no big deal." Mark wrapped his arm around Buffy and walked into the movie theater leaving Angel looking on with a look of confusion.
"Angel? Are you okay?" Ashen asked.
"Sure...fine." Angel ran his fingers through is spikey hair when he saw his parents coming up the walk.
