Prologue
The snow sparkled as it fell to the ground. For the first time in years Sunnydale had snow at Christmas. It gave off an unearthly feel to it and everyone knew it.
A couple standing on top of a hill in particular knew this snow fall would bring special things. Things neither of them would understand but would change their lives forever.
But unknown to all it would bring redemption.
Buffy Summers gazed up at the sky in wonder as the twirling snowflakes fell around her, blocking the sun and landing in her blond hair making in look especially beautiful causing it to sparkle in the moonlight.
"Let's go," She said offering Angel her hand which he took delicately and headed down the hill and into town.
Their feet crunching in the snow they walked silently away. They reached the fringes of the town before they spotted her. And it wasn't so much seeing her as hearing her.
She had been hidden behind a particularly high snow drift. The slayer and the vampire may have walked right by her if not for Angel hearing some shallow breathing.
She had been huddled naked, shivering and blue cast on her skin. Buffy had scooped up her in her arms and wrapped her up inside her jacket without a moment's hesitation. Blond almost white hair fell in layers to her hips almost like she had it styled especially for the occasion... of being caught in the snow, Buffy noted with a small smile.
"I'll take her." Angel offered and she handed him to her but almost immediately had to grab her back from the vampire when his skin started to sizzle.
Buffy didn't have time to question the burns on Angel's arm or how the girl had caused them for the little girl started shivering violently. The two exchanged glances, they both knew they should get her to a doctor.
As they tried to get to the child to the hospital neither the Slayer nor her boyfriend noticed the girl's had stopped shivering and the color had returned to her cheeks and was glowing a bright blue color which soon engulfed the three of them.

A/N: Cryptic I know but in all fairness it is only the first chapter. Again I have to thank Gidget for all of her ideas.
