Wesley entered the lab along with Dagnos and Gunn. He had his handgun drawn ready to shoot any aggressors. The Sphere was still active, it flickered with energy. Gunn walked up to Fred's office ax in hand. She was no where in sight. Dagnos carried the ingredients for the spell that would bring back Angel all he lacked now was the blood.

"Fred?" Wesley yelled with no response.

"The Miage is close we must prepare for battle. I must face The Miage alone." Dagnos said as The Miage appeared with a very scared Fred in his arms.

"Wesley, HELP!!!!!" Fred yelled.

Wesley aimed his gun right at The Miage's head.

"You shoot me she dies human." He yelled.

"Miage let the human go this fight is between you and me." Dagnos said.

"Very well let us fight." The Miage said as he threw Fred to the floor and charged his enemy.

With the two demons locked in combat Wesley went to Fred's aide. Gunn guarded the door to fight off any other demons.

"Fred do we have Angel's blood on file?" Wesley asked.

"There is some on the table. I just took a sample of it earlier." Fred said.

Wesley grabbed the blood sample and made with way over to the sphere. He poured the blood on the sphere and began reciting words in Latin. He then sprinkled a mystical powder over the blood. The room was suddenly filled with light and Wesley was thrown back. The sphere opened into a portal that crackled with energy. Wesley looked over to see Dagnos slump over on the ground. The amulet had finally taken its toll on the old demon. The Miage laughed at his pain. Dagnos gathered all the energy he had and punched his enemy as hard as he could. The Miage was thrown back a few feet but was able to quickly regain his footing. He walked back to Dagnos and towered over his almost lifeless body.

"HAHAHA you have lost."

"Didn't I just see you die?" Angel asked as he came out from the portal.

"Who are you?"

"You know that hurts because I thought we had become such good friends." Angel said as grabbed a sword from the floor and began to slash at The Miage.

Angel hit his enemy with the sword but could never draw blood. His skin was too strong. The Miage knocked the sword out of his hand and then pushed him to the ground.

"You know I am getting really sick of your face." Angel said as he flipped The Miage into the portal.

Dagnos's amulet fell off his neck and was sucked into the portal as well. He then died.

2 Hours Later

After clearing all the demons out of the building Angel went up to his office to think. That whole trip to the future had just made him really depressed. Things couldn't turn out that way. He was broken from thought when Wesley walked in.

"I just wanted to see…..We are all quite worried about you." Wesley said.

"I'm fine." Angel said trying to be alone.

"Where ever you were and what ever you saw……."

"I was in the future. Everyone that I cared about was gone and it was my entire fault. Everything that I have been working for has been for nothing." Angel yelled.

"Dagnos mentioned that the sphere was connected to different times and dimensions. You could have been in the future of a number of worlds. It might not even be our future." Wesley said.

"But it could be." Angel said as stared out the window up at the stars.

THE END.
