Well here's the next chapter. i can't wait to hear what you guys this. now get ready to see some old friends.

LA, California – 2007 Andre walked silently along the street hanging his head down in defeat. He'd feared that one day it wouldn't be Bowe and Andre again and now it wasn't. Now they were two different whatever it was they were. Andre kicked at the ground scratching the end of his show on the pavement. He hated being alone in the city. He hated being alone anywhere.

He turned the corner and looked around. He recognized the street. Then he figured out why in the center of the street sat a dirty building that looked like it had been closed for a long time. Well it had been. For quite a few years actually. It was the place that Bowe and him had lived in when they'd gone back to the human dimension for the first time since they were toddlers.

He moved toward the building and touched the door lightly. It was a strong wooden door with metal plates on it to keep people out. The metal was cold but it felt good to just touch again in so long.

His mind flashed back to a day back when they were just 10-years-old, or at least they appeared that old. After so much moving throughout dimensions they didn't appear the proper age. A small video started to play in his head as he remembered a cold night when he came in after a visit to the Hell dimension. Bowe had been sitting in the corner of the room on an old couch that had been left there. She'd been so innocent and sweet back then. As soon as he'd entered the room she smiled and said hello.

Andre shook his head trying to stop himself from feeling upset and sad. He banged his hand against the door as hard as he could and the wood split underneath his fist. He pulled back slightly then quickly pulled all the wood and metal back in to the places they had just been.

He eased his powers through the lock of the door and they slid right through each other. The lock unlatched with a tiny click. Turning the knob the door unleashed and he quietly walked in. he didn't know why but he felt as though if he made too much noise then everything before him would shatter and he'd find that it was all just a dream he had had while sleeping in the Hell dimension.

The couch that he had seen just a few minutes before in his memory still sat there. He walked up to it. A faded pop stain, a smell of musty cigars from Billy The Goat, the guy who used to own the place, and an old kind of moldy hotdog foil appeared on the couch. Everything was covered in dust and it smelt like something had died in there but it still felt like home.

"I Never thought I'd see you here again." A voice said hauntingly from behind him.

Andre spun around to see a short man in a yellow shirt with a skinny cigar sticking out of the side of his mouth.
LA, California – Hyperion Hotel – 2007

"So I really am alive again?" Wes asked after Angel had finished explaining everything the best he could.

"Well, it seems to work out that way." Lorne said, sitting on the stairs across the room.

"So, if this girl can bring back Wes and me then she could bring back almost any dead person, right?" Cordy said after a long period of thinking.

Lorne shook his head, "Well, yes but that's not what she does. Her calling is to bring up three people every Earth year. But not just anyone, people who can help, people who can make a difference."

Cordy thought about this then concluded, "But that means someone else was raised, or at least is going to be raised."

"You're right," Spike said in a knowing tone. "But who?" he then questioned.

They all thought about it hard. Who? Who would she bring back?

LA, California – 2007

"You know you were always the one I was most curious about. Always the one who seemed different." The man in the yellow shirt said as he waddled up, one hand holding on to his suspenders, the other rested near his waste. "I saw what you did to my door. Thanks for fixing it. You know not many people like this place. They say it smell of the un-human. I guess they aren't that far off. Right Andy?" he said in an all-knowing voice as he brought his right hand up and pulled the cigar out of his mouth. He blew a few puffs of smoke then grinned mysteriously like he new something Andre didn't.

"It's Andre and sorry for breaking the door. I'll be going now. Good to see you Billy." Andre said turning around to leave.

As Andre reached the door he heard a light chuckle then the sound of feet shuffling against old tile flooring. A light shoulder rested on his shoulder and he felt Billy's breathing on his neck.

"I don't think so kid." He said in an un-friendly tone. "I'm not going to let you off that easy. You should know after all that time living in my buildings you should have learned that Billy the Goat don't let anyone get away that easy." He said glaring at the back of Andre's pale neck. "You know, the last time I tried to help your friend, it suddenly got so cold I couldn't breath." He informed turning Andre around to face him. "But you wouldn't do that to me. Would you? Would you do that to your good friend Billy?" he asked in a somewhat pitiful yet strong voice.

Andre turned his head away. "I have to go."

Billy nodded, "Fine then. Go. But I don't want to see you again in my life. Or even my death for that matter." He said in a proud tone as he let Andre walk out the door once again into the cold night.

LA, California - Willow and Kennedy's Apartment - 2007

Ring. Ring. Ring.

"I'll get it." Kennedy yells from the kitchen as she goes to reach for the phone on the wall. "Hello?"

"Hi, Kennedy! Is Willow there?" Spike's voice said quickly over the phone.

"Um, yea, one sec." Kennedy said as she headed into the living room. Holding the phone out to Willow she said in a surprised tone, "I think it's Spike."

Willow took the phone from Kennedy and said slowly, "Hello?"

"Aw. Great you're there! We have a minor little thing happening over here at the Hyperion, so I was wondering if you could be a doll and come over. Like now." He said trying to sound as normal as possible as he stared at Wes and Cordy talk with Angel and Lorne for the first time in 4 years.

Willow thought about it for a moment, "Um… one second Spike." She said in a confused shaky voice. She pulled the phone from her ear and looked at Kennedy who was sitting on the couch above Willow now. "He wants me to go over. So, I guess it must be pretty important."

Kennedy nodded then said in a light tone, "then I guess you should get going."

Willow put the phone back to her ear then said confidently, "What should I bring?"

"Just the regular stuff, mostly just yourself." He said still not filling her in on what was going on.

"Okay, I'll be there soon." Willow said smiling slightly.

Click.

Willow looked up at Kennedy, "Well, we better get going." She grinned, "It's about time I was needed again."

"But I thought Spike wanted you. Not us." Kennedy said in an informing tone.

"Well, Spike is just going to have to deal with disappointment, isn't he?" Willow said as she stood up grabbed her bag and coat and went to the door to leave. Kennedy didn't move. "Hurry up. Spike must have been pretty desperate if he phoned me, so we should hurry."

Kennedy got up and grabbed her jacket and the two of them headed out the door to go to the Hyperion.

LA, California – 2007

Andre ran slightly as rain started to pour down. Andre covered his head as he ran down the road. He knew he could fly but he didn't want to. He turned corner after corner until he saw the building he'd entered and left earlier that night, the Hyperion Hotel.

He ran over to it and stood just out of view of the doors under some trees and stared at the building wishing that he new what to do now.

Suddenly the sound of feet and female voices echoed off of the buildings around him and within a few seconds a woman's voice asked in a helpful, "Are you okay boy?"

Andre turned around to see two women standing behind him. One had dark brown hair and the other had fiery red hair. He smiled to assure them everything was okay and said in a calm tone, "Yes, just trying to wait out the rain."

"You could come inside with us." The other one with red hair said happily. "It's not good for you to be standing out here all wet. I'm sure someone inside would have some dry clothes for you." She smiled kindly.

Andre nodded and followed them into the building.

"So what you doing out at 3:30 in the mourning anyway?" the brown haired one questioned, suspicion filling every word.

Andre thought about it but they were already inside before he answered.

LA, California – Hyperion Hotel – 2007

"We're here." Willow proclaimed as she and Kennedy entered with the boy they'd just met.

Kennedy nodded toward Andre, "And we brought a guest."

Lorne looked up at the soaked Andre, "Andre! What happened?"

"Ugh… why can't the demon kids just disappear and not come back?" Cordelia said in an annoyed tone.

Angel and Spike looked at Andre, then at Lorne totally confused.

Andre looked down at the ground. "I need a place to stay." He admitted then added with a smile, "And some dry clothes."

Everyone nodded then Angel stood up and said, "I'll get you some clothes."

Lorne shook his head then stood up, "No, I'll get his some Angel. I think he might fit mine better considering I'm a bit smaller than you."

Angel nodded and Andre followed Lorne up to his room.

"Okay, I'm confused. You know the kid?" Kennedy declared.

Cordy rolled her eyes, "We've met."

Willow looked at Cordelia then clued in and looked at Wes, "Wait a second!" she yelled, "You're dead!"

LA, California – Lorne's Room Hyperion Hotel – 2007

"So what happened?" Lorne asked as he walked into the room.

"She was losing control." Andre answered as he came in and sat down on the neatly made bed in the corner of the room. "They did something to her. The last time she was sent back. They did something." He said anger starting to fill his voice.

"Here." Lorne said handing him a whole new outfit. "What did they do?"

Andre took it from his hands and motioned Lorne to turn around. "Thanks."

Lorne turned around and Andre pulled down his pants and pulling up the red pants that Lorne had given him. "That's the thing, I don't know. All I know is that whatever they did it made her let out her dark side, her dangerous side." He said buttoning up the black shirt then pulling on the red jacket of the suit. "You can turn around now." He said and Lorne followed.

Lorne nodded and with a big grin said, "Styling!"

Andre spun around and stopped to pose for Lorne. "Totally." He said looking in the wall mirror that Lorne had hung up beside them. The two of them laughed and smiled like the old friends they were.
