Dedication: To Janey, my inspiration and all that...
Author's Note : For the purpose of this fic Angel and Spike do love each other (In a violent love hate kinda way). Not very much romantically but in a familyish way, but with some bits of romance. What can I say, they come from a fucked up family.
AN - Ok, my theory... sorta. Angel has both a demon and soul right? And it has been shown that the soul is very strong and has fought against the demon and demonic urges for about 100 years, Spike on the other hand... Spike has only had his soul for about 3 years now, and his soul and demon appear to be quite similar, causing the shall we say 'merge' between demon and soul to go smoothly. Buffy also has a primal force inside her that she has to control, her "slayer" which as we all found in season 7 was originally a demon, or a demon's essence. The spell that Voldomort used to 'reward' Angel and Spike switched their souls not their demons, so Angelus remains in his body, the slayer in Buffy's and William the Bloody in Spike's. Buffy and Angel both have the experience and power to control/dominate their weaker demons, Buffy because it is natural for her since she has been doing it since birth, and Angel because he had to control Angelus who we all know is a strong forceful bastard. Spike on the other hand has had less time to adapt to controlling his demon, and the demon is less powerful. So therefore we/I assume that Angelus has the power to dominate Spike in his body... Let the games begin.
Btw, this whole theory was pretty much just an excuse to let Angelus out to play, because... well... who doesn't love Angelus?! He's so funny and adorable! Who can say no to him?
Another small A/N - this chapter and the previous one happened the night after Angelus was chained in the Dungeon's. I.e., he was chained, people slept, and the next day Buffy and Spike arrived. Otherwise it doesn't coincide with Buffy and Spike's 16hour flight. On with the.. peep show .
Chapter 13. The Bet
"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Harry asked, his confidence long gone.
"Stop being such a baby. You've faced the Dark Lord! How bad could a vampire be?"
"But he's not just a vampire, he's 'The Scourge of Europe'! He's ten times worse than Voldomort, not surprising seeing as he's had double the time to stock up a body count. But, what he does to his victims..." Harry trailed off with a shudder.
"God, you're such a wuss," Draco snickered.
Harry glared.
"Fine, let's get this over with." Harry said in annoyance.
Draco smirked, knowing he had gotten his way, as he usually did.
"Alohomora," Draco pointed his wand at the lock on the heavy wooden door, the room behind it was the only possible place, Draco knew, that anyone could possible be kept in chains.
Harry stood back cautiously, expecting something to fly out of the room at him. The dungeons always gave him the heebie-jeebies, but when Draco pushed open the heavy door he was surprised at what he saw.
The small figure was chained to the wall, arms above her head, or was it his head? She seemed to be jiggling, jumping, possibly trying to get out of the chains. That or...
"Oh my God!" Harry exclaimed, outraged and slightly confused.
Draco sniggered.
"Are you trying to look down her top!?" he asked in amusement and slight disbelief.
Angel was startled from his reprive by Harry's exclamation. He looked guiltily at the boys standing in the doorway.
"Umm... No?"
"The is the ultimate evil vampire? The Scourge of Europe? He who slaughters puppies?" Draco said in surprise.
"Hey," Angel said, "That was a long time ago, well unless you count that small lapse a couple of years ago. But I have a soul now, I'm good. Helping the helpless, fighting for the righteous and all that."
"A soul?" Harry said, "I thought vampires, when they were turned their souls went... away, and were replaced by a demon? How is it possible that you have a soul?"
"Long story. I had a... misunderstanding with some Romanian Gypsies about 100 years ago, cursed me with a soul. Hey, either of you want to let me out of these chains? I promise not to hurt you," Angel said sincerely.
Harry looked at Draco in disbelief, before looking back at Angel.
"You've got to be kidding me! Do you actually expect us to believe that?" Harry sniggered in disbelief.
"I swear I'm telling you the truth. I haven't been evil in a long time, and I don't know what you've heard about me but it all happened a long time ago and I'm very sorry for it, but I had no control over my demon then. It wasn't my fault."
"Finally! He gets it! For three years I tried to imprint it into his brain but he never got it, now after being chained in a dungeon for five minutes he gets it! I give up!" Buffy almost screamed in frustration in the door way.
Spike snickered.
"You know pet, you look really good in chains," he said to Buffy pushing his way through Harry and Draco, and moving towards his grand-sire.
"Spike stop being an idiot and let out of these goddamn chains!" Angel said, quickly realising that Spike was currently inhabiting his body and Buffy was in Spike's. This proved his original theory that Voldomort was to blame for this.
"You know Peaches I kinda like having the advantage over you, I think I'll leave you there for a while."
"Childe if you don't let me down right now..." Angel threatened.
Spike continued to smirk.
"Buffy," Angel whined, "make him let me down!"
"Sorry love, but I'm currently non-corporeal and I can't really do anything. Besides, you in chains is totally hot... well it would be if you were in your own body anyway. Really brings back memories, and puts you in a really good position for me to torture you for a few little things," Buffy said dangerously, "Maybe Spikey would be willing to help?"
"Count me in Pet. I'm always up for a round of torture the grand-sire."
Angel gulped.
"Buffy, whatever I did, I'm really, really sorry. I didn't mean it, and you know I'll make it up to you!"
"Damn, 50 bucks right?" Spike asked Buffy, "Godamnit, Peaches. I thought you were going to last more than five minutes before falling into a blubbering, apologising heap!"
"Yup," Buffy said with a smirk, "Sorry Honey, but you're too easy."
"You two BET on me?" He asked in anger.
"Well yeah Peaches, we had a 16 hour flight, what else were we going to do? I mean I suggested shagging but with Buffy all non-corporeal..." Spike trailed off when he heard his grand-sire's growl.
"You will both be punished," Angel managed between growls.
"Sweetie, that's gunna be kinda hard with you all chained and what not," Buffy tried to calm him.
"Then unchain me!"
The threat was obvious in his voice.
Harry, Draco and Snape, who were all currently still in the room with Buffy, Angel and Spike, watched the scene in utter disbelief.
Snape coughed, reminding the vampires and slayer that there were three other people in the room. Buffy took one look at Snape expression and saw disproval there.
She raised an eyebrow.
"Come on Sevy, don't be such a tight-ass!"
Harry couldn't help it and a small chuckle escaped his lips.
Snape gave Harry a warning glare.
Draco took that as his cue to butt in.
"What the bloody hell is going on? And who are these people?"
"I surprised you don't recognise my remarkable wit, especially since I'm responsible for that bracelet," Buffy said with a smirk, which looked a whole lot more evil in Spike's body.
Angel and Spike both snickered.
"You chained 'em together Luv? Nice!"
"What the hell are you doing teaching at Hogwarts anyway? I thought you were in Rome," Angel added.
"Umm, well," Buffy looked nervous, or as nervous as she could with Spike's features, "You see, I was totally ready to go home, but then I got... distracted with my brilliant teaching career."
"Distracted?" Spike snorted, "Yeah right. You chickened out!"
"Did not!"
"Did too!"
"Did not! Angel make him stop!"
"Both of you! STOP!"
Both guilty parties looked down to the floor. The other three occupants of the room were surprised to see the two taking orders from the one chained to a wall.
"Chicken," Spike muttered under his breath at Buffy.
Buffy glared at him.
"Chickened out's not really the word I would use. I mean I've faced countless demons, saved the world like a million times, I don't chicken out!"
"You totally chickened out!"
Buffy's only reply was to stick her tongue out at him.
"Mature," he snorted in reply.
"Anyway, back to business! Sevy, can you get him out of these chains? If we don't do it soon he's going to go postal on us!"
Snape reluctantly produced the key to the shackles that bound Angel.
Buffy rolled her eyes at his reluctance.
"Spike, would you please?" she gestured towards the key.
"Sure thing Pet, always willing to help the helpless," he said smugly.
"Childe, do as you're told!" Angel growled his contribution.
"Fine, fine," Spike muttered, "Nobody lets me have fun any more!"
"Just unlock the fucking chains!" Angel roared.
Deciding that it was time to stop playing with Angel, Spike unlocked the shackles, catching Angel before he slumped to the ground.
Angel groaned in Spike's arms, well actually his own arms, but...
"I'd forgotten what having a circulation feels like," he moaned.
"Poor baby," Buffy said, sarcastically.
He stuck his tongue out at her.
"Oh, Baby, you're turning me on!" she scoffed, "And you say I'm immature!"
"Perhaps we should move to the Headmasters office to have this conversation, and perhaps work on a way to switch you back," Snape interrupted their squabbling, "And what exactly are you two doing down in the dungeons."
Harry cringed at the accusing tone in his voice.
"We got lost," Draco answered simply.
Buffy snorted.
"Yeah," she said, "We're going to believe that! Off to bed you two! NOW!"
Draco grumbled but led Harry away from the immensely interesting scene towards their private chambers.
Snape trooped the remaining three towards Dumbledore's office, muttering angrily under his breath the entire way there.
End of chapter 13
Hey everyone,
I'm so so so so sorry that I haven't updated in ages. I just recently finished my exams. I've actually had this chapter written for aged but my beta who has also had exams hasn't had time to beta till now. So I'm really sorry for the long wait. And, I'll apologise now because Assigned Seats wont be updated for about a month because I'm going on Vacation (to Europe [Yay me!]) and wont have access to the necessary means to write let alone update, so I apologise in advance. But have no fear, I do plan on finishing it, even if it takes me a while.
Also I wanted to say a HUGE thank you to every one who reviewed. You have no idea how much it meant to me! I was planning on giving up on AS and moving on to some different fics or abandoning the fic world entirely, so a huge huge thank you to you!
I also wanted to apologise for the crappines that was chapters 7 through 10. My chapters were very nicely formatted with numerous spaces between lines. Then I uploaded it to ff.net. rolls eyes I'm sure we all know what it's like! Anyway, it is now hopefully fixed, for easier reading.
Thanxs and hugs and kisses especially to carterxoxo for your continuing support, as well as Jack Sparrow's Only Love, KitFoxGurl, Ben is Glory, sapph89 and Mrs. RT. Thank you thank you thank you all for reviewing!
Also, big thank to Jane, my ever present Beta. Even if she does take a while to Beta some things.
