Buffy couldn't believe it had gotten so dark. I really must have been daydreaming. The SITs are going to freak if I don't bring home some dinner.

"Hey Lover," Angelus called from behind her.

"Angel, what's wrong?" Buffy asked

"Why should anything be wrong?" Angelus asked coming closer to the Slayer.

"Because the only time we ever see each other the world is ending." Buffy explained. "Are you here to help us with the First Evil or are you in trouble too?"

"The First Evil is in Sunnydale?" Angelus asked surprised. "Maybe that's what was controlling the Beast."

"What's the Beast?" Buffy asked. "Is it anything like the Uber-Vamp I killed last week?"

"Just some evil minion I killed for creating a reign of fire and blocking out the sun." Angelus shrugged, "But I was wondering what was controlling it."

"Yeah, you and me both," Faith smiled as she came from the shadows. "Hey B. What no hug?"

"Faith, you're supposed to be in jail," Buffy stormed closer to Faith, "and you're a vampire. Angel she's been turned."

"I know" Angelus smiled. "Who do you think turned her?"

"Angelus," Buffy sighed. "Let me guess Faith shows up bats her eyelashes and exposes her heaving bosoms, you have sex with her, and suddenly Angelus turned Faith."

"Something like that." Angelus smiled.

"Face it B, you were just never bad enough for him." Faith smiled "and now, we're back for a visit to destroy you. Surprise!"

"I have a few surprises of my own," Buffy smiled as she sensed Spike coming.

"Such as," Angelus asked.

"Me," Came Spike's voice from behind Angelus. Spike took Angelus by surprise and knocked him out with a round kick to the face while Buffy took the moment of distraction to attack Faith. "Come on Pet, We've got to get back to headquarters."

"How did you know?" Buffy asked as they ran.

"Wes," Spike shrugged. "Come on we really need to get back before they wake up."

"Yeah," Buffy agreed, "Because I want to kill Wes."
