Changing prospective*********
They were walking whole day and night, if you could called night hare night. The two suns were still up they just dimmed so the sky wasn't red anymore, but dark violet and there were not any stars. There's surroundings changing to, were they landed were grassy hills with few tress. But now they were in the wood. The trees were tall with spiked leaves, which were not green but blue. ,, We were walking south for hours now, where is that demon village Whistler talk about?'' asked Buffy with a whine. Angel hugged her around her shoulders soothingly and whispered in her ear. ,, I don't know, love? Soon I hope.'' As he said that, they saw a camp fire and start moving toward it.. soon they saw the whole camp. There were tends and around the fire sitting on the ground there were purple demons. When they saw them, they stood up cautiously moving toward newcomers. Demons were small and had legs like frogs and big blinking green eyes. They were dress in the pink suits and generally looked harmless and gentle creatures.
Buffy's POW
They are kinda cute, I wouldn't take them home, but they are cute. Out of the corner of may eye I see Angel raise his hand in greeting. ,, A friend of ours pointed us in this direction'' he said. A friend? I wouldn't considered Whistler a friend. A annoying acquaintance yes, friend no. but Angel continues ,, he said that you will help us .'' ,, We will help you stranger.'' Said the first voice. Coming out of nowhere. OK this is wired who is talking here. I didn't see any of them speak. ,, We know what you need.'' The second one rang in the air. This is getting wirier bay the minute. ,, And we have it all.'' Added the third. Now I seriously wigging here. ,, We are using our minds to communicate between ourselves and the others. And than you for thinking that we are cute, Buffy.'' Said the first voice again. Oh gooooood, they can read thoughts, ugh what to think, this is so wired. Angel wraps his hands around me and I calm down, a little anyway. ,, we don't have any secretes among us.'' That was the second voice again. ,, And nobody can hide theirs from us as well.'' Continued the third. ,, That is our way, we help only those who are worthy of our help.'' Angel stiffens at that word and I ask. ,, And?'' The creature smiles. ,, You mean no harm to those, that don't want to harm you or the others, you are worthy of our help. Come join us to diner and we will discus yours problems.'' Oh goody food, jumm. I hope there is a lot if that around here, because I starving. And Angel is hungry to. ,, Sure, there is enough food, no big.'' Said the voice that I didn't hear before and a smaller demon. Probably a kid, steps before us. Ups, I forgot that they hear may thinking. The small guy winks at me and I groan, can't I have some privacy in may head. O great, now it giggles, I em entertainment for kids. Now that remark sends him on the floor roaring with laughter. I rest may case. This mind reading is relay getting on may nerves now. I wonder what Angel thinks, he so private, no sharing his feelings kind of guy. One of the older purple people hands me a bowl filled with some kind of green liquid. ,, Drink it's refreshing and then we will teach you about this world.'' Oh great mote school and I thought that I'm finish with homework. I drink and hear a little guy laugh again.

50 years later and counting down
They were finally ready to travel. Theirs learning was finish. Purple people teach them how to take care of them self's in this dimension, how to live. They bid fellwells to theirs teachers and started walking in measured pace of experienced travellers, because purple people were nomads and they moved a lot. Soon they entered a wasteland.
Year later
They were walking the desert, survived storms(not that they would really died) attacks of hostile demon tribes. After whole day of walking they came upon a cave and set up a camp inside. Angel stayed in the camp cooking, he loved to cook. While Buffy went to find some water. In her search for water she came upon some rocks and in the middle of two big rocks Buffy find a pond of water. So she filled hers and Angels water- bottles. On her way back to the camp something thudded down before her, engulfing Buffy to a smokescrean of dust. Buffy skidded to a halt, coughing and waiving the dust out of her face. As dust cleared she saw something huge to appear within the cloud. Her breath caught in her troath when she recognise the creature before her, it was Dino'rzshe a creature twice her size with massive legs and paws with razor sharp talons and strong, lean cat like body. It's back and tail was studded with spikes, and it hat a big head with sharp teeth. And the creatures red, bulging, binocular eyes were fixing on her. She was just chosen to became a meal. She quickly draw her sword, from the sheath on her back and draw a knife, from her waist prepared to defend herself. When one other and obviously younger Dino'rushe jumped on the rock, behind it's parent, growling. ,,ANGEL !!!!!!'' she yelled for help as the creatures attacked.
One hour later two exhausted and wounded warriors dragged two enormous and heavy bodies to the cave. The beast's yellow fur will be used as cover for the tents, blankets and clothes. The talons, teeth and spikes will come handy at one point and meat will last for months, when will be dray and smoked that its. Buffy was badly wounded during the battle before Angel reach her. But she paid no attention to her pain, until the meat and the skins were safe hung to dray. Then she fell to her knees and started shaking. Angel rushed to her side, lift her up and take to the tent, where he gently lay her down on the soft fur on the floor. Then he unbuttoned her shirt, he had to peel the fabric from her back, the dry blood making the task even more difficult and painful. She winced a couple of times, when the wound was opened. When the shirt was peeled of, his hart ached for her. Buffy's back was covered with deep bloody gashes and welts. ,, I'll get may pack, just lay still.'' He said calmly. Then he went for his back, when he find it he returned to the tent and laid it open on the stone. Out of the pack he pulled a tin bowl, took his blade from his belt and laid it bisade the bowl. Buffy watched him, her eyes hooded and breathing hard to ease the pain. She rested her head on her back of her hands. From the pouch, Angel pulled the pile of neatly stashed, dried, red Dell'junes leaves and put them in the bowl, then selected a few other herbs and put them with the leaves. Then he grunt it with knifes handle, then he pureed some water in the powder, mixing it to paste. Then he took the bowl and sat next to her. ,, Lie still.'' He whispered. Then he spread the paste gently on the welts, soothing it out as he went. When he finished, he added some white Poelem leaves into the paste and spread it again, but this time on the open wounds, soothing the pain. Buffy moaned, her eyes closed when Angel worked. When he finish, he stroked her hair while the paste soaked in. ,, How does that feel, may love?'' he asked her, with a half smile. Buffy opened her eyes and smiled lovingly at him. ,, The pain all gone now. I love your hands.'' Then she propped her self on her elbows and kissed him gently on the lips. After fifty-one years of living together, they grove more comfortable with each other and still very much involve. When Buffy pulled away, she said: ,, Now is may turn. I saw that baby Dino'rushe jumped on you, you probably have some wounds your self. So don't be a macho men, pretending that nothing happened. Now turn around mister.'' He grumpily laid down and Buffy spread the paste on his wounds, grinning at his theatrics. When she finished, she started massage his back, kissing him as she went. She smiled broadly, when she heard his purr's of contend. Suddenly angel turned around and pulled her on him, kissing her passionately on the lips. Hours later, they lay under furry blankets snuggled together.

Angel's POW
Laying her with Buffy, is Heaven. I'm glad, and not for the first time, that may soul is permanent. Even after all this time, I still shudder, when I remember, what exactly were Angeluse's plans with Buffy. Suddenly a stirring bundle draws me back from may thoughts. I look down at her and find her awake and looking up to me. ,, Hi'' she say ,, you are brooding again.'' She scolds me playfully. I smile, but before I say anything, she puts her finger on may lips. ,, I always wanted to know something and I never ask about it?'' now I'm worried, what if she asks me abut Angelus or what if . ,, What does that bird on yours shoulder means? Why did you put it on? Since when you have it?..'' And she asked all this in one breath. She never stops surpassing me. I love it. I smile down at her, then bend down to kiss her nose. Then I take a breath and . ,, First of all, it is not a bird. It's a Griffin. It is a Mythological creature and it is a blending of eagle; because it has a eagle's head and wings and a lion's body. The Griffin myth originates somewhere in the Near or Middle Est. they are found in Ancient Egypt and Greek mythology. Griffins as creatures are fierce, but solitary. They prefer, to live alone, with acceptation of other Griffins. Their trust is hard to earn, but once one has it, they are extremely loyal. Griffins are not fearless, but they are very brave and they are weary wise creatures. They mate for life. Once they have chosen a mate, they are forever faithful and if the mate dies, they will not take another.'' I stop telling and kiss her forehead. ,, Well'' she says ,, I think you have a lot common with the Griffin'' ant she kisses may chin. ,, But when did you get it? And '' she frowns ,, how did you put the tattoo on I mean you are a vampire. Should not the tattoo disappear and..'' now she is frowning even harder, what does troubling her so much, then she looks at her hands and asks in a small voice. ,, .and how did you tattoo get in the watchers dairies?'' now I have to smile. I know exactly what troubles her. She thinks that some former Slayer saw may bear back. She is jealous. ,, You know that Whistler show you to me, right?'' She nodes, I told her that bit of may past along with the one when I was still human, she was weary understanding with that, but back to the pint. When I told her that I fall in love the very first time I sow her, it brought a happy smile on her face, the same one she has right now. ,, Well, after Whistler got me back in shape, find some clothes that I liked. He leave. Then one night I went on a walk, to think. And so, in may way I past the tattoo shop. I intended to go past it. When shapes of Mystical animals caught may eye. I went inside and luck or fate wanted, that the guy doing the tattoo's was half demon. He knew that I was a vampire immediately. So I told him, what kind of tattoo I would like and he done it. It hurt like hell, because he had to mix holly water in to ink, only that way it is permanent and won't came of. How did the watchers got that information I can only guess. Maybe they keeping taps on shops like that for identify demons I relay don't know.'' She listened intently through whole story. Then she slowly smiled at me and then open to say something only to stifle a yawn. I chuckled, she is so darn cute but now when she mock-glaring at me she is even more beautiful. Then she grins and snuggles deeper under the blankets. Then she rests her head on may chest. Soon I hear her even breading, the soft puffs coming from her mouth tickling may skin. After a while we will go ant look at Dino'rushe nest. Sometimes there could be find some useful objects.

Buffy's POW
When I woke up, he was gone! I keep repeating may self. He knows how dangerous it is. I mean he lectures me all the time baut that. I rally hate that. And I never hear him when he leaves. It make's me want to hung a bell around his neck. I mean really. He is so annoying, I bet he go to the nest alll bay him self, he could woke me up. But nooo Mr Noble mustn't woke me up that would be wrong. 18 century Irish catholic guy! I mean, here I em, pacing the cave like crazy women, worrying, and he. A, there he comes, and he find something. Well what ever it is it can wait. I have to give him a piece of may mind, for not waking me up. Which is kinda nice and considered and romantic. But he could get hurt and what if there were more of the Dino'rushe thingies around. ,, You are awake.'' He says. Duh may eyes are open of course, I'm awake. ,, Yes, and you just, couldn't woke me up, could you?'' now get out of that if you can. ,, you were sleeping, I could not wake you, you were so cute.'' Seeing that he kisses me and whole world disappears. That is nice. Angel kisses. What was I thinking before? Ahh it doesn't mater this is to nice. Angel good, being angry bad. I tray to bring him closer to me, but something gets in the way. He is holding something. He is holding a ... egg?! ,, You have an egg.'' I state the obvious. An as I speak some furry creature jumps on Angel's shoulder. I look more closely and recognise little fur ball as Zolog, a cat like creature, with big blue eyes and long furry tail, his fur is black with white stripes. Purple people used Zologs as watch dogs. I always wanted one, but they are very loyal and difficult to get. ,,it is not an egg, it is an Nie egg.'' Nie egg, what the hell. Now I remembered. ,,Oh, you mean an dragon egg?'' ,,No, not a dragon, purple.'' I know what purple people said about that Nie thingy. It grows big, has scales, it breaths fire, it's a damn dragon. As he talks the egg cracks and the dragon hatches. ,,Mummy, daddy!'' Did I mention that it talks? ,,We are not your parents.'' I said to the baby dragon. It puffs a cloud of smog. ,,I know you're not, you don't look like me.'' Smart too. ,,Will you eat me now?'' Asked the baby. But I'm not fooled, the baby's not so helpless, it has fire, literally. So we tell the dragon our whole story, not leaving anything out. ,, I want to come which you and when you find you way home I will go to.'' It says. ,, You can't it is not you world and besides the path is dangerous and you are just a baby.'' Angel tries to convince the kid. Not that I think it will work I ad: ,, You'll get hurt.'' Little dragon growls in annoyance ,, I'm not a baby! I'm out of the egg already! And I will grove. And, what considers you world, I'm a shifter, I can shift may size's. when I grove I will be big as a house, but I will have the ability to shrinking to the size of that fur-ball on Angels shoulder.'' It stamps his little foot at the ground. I start to giggle and angel chuckles at the baby's antic. I kind like the little brat. Then I remember. ,, You will need a name. What are you anyway a boy or a girl?'' I ask a baby. ,,I'm a female.'' She say's proudly it make's me chuckle. ,, Well haw about Star,'' I would like weary much to her to accept this name. I miss stars on the sky. It's kinda ironic no stars on the sky and here would be a dragon flaying named after them. The dragon sits on her tail and raise her paw to her chin, thinking. ,, I think I like it, Star. Yes! I like it weary much'' Star exclaims joyfully. That gets us laugh again. ,, Well'' say's Angel between the chuckles.,, since Buffy named you, Star I'll name this little guy here.'' With that he pats the little fur ball. ,, Blaze I think'' he says after a while. I smile at ours new companions. After feeding ours new friends and grab a breakfast ourselves we pack the camp ant start walking again. Angel carries Blaze, his furry body curled around Angel's neck. Star resting in may pack her head on may shoulder. I have a feeling that few thousand years to come won't be boring.
