Spike walked into Dumbledore's office and saw Angel, Dumbledore, Wesley, Lupin, and Snape. He glared at Snape as an amusement to himself. Snape had a tint of evil in his eyes as he glared back. Dumbledore and Angel noticed what was going on between the two teachers and Angel decided to switch seats with Snape to keep them from fighting.

Angel leaned over and whispered to Spike.

"You know you're acting like you're in middle school. Could you stop acting like a fledging? For once in your life." Spike glared at him. He knew he was right, he just hated to admit it, so he did shut up.

"This werewolf has been working for Voldemort for over 10 years. While Voldemort was gone, we suspect that the werewolf has been watching things that are going on around here. He took orders from the head Death Eaters. It will be hard to kill. You might have to track it back to its original home if it gets away." said Wesley as the others nodded in agreement

After they had decided what to do, everyone got up and left to their own room except for Spike and Angel. They headed to Spike's room.

"Do you think it's safe for both of us to go or should we bring the whole team?"

"It might be safer if just we went. I don't even want to think about leaving her behind." said Spike as he worried for my own safety. They walked into the room and lay down in a bed with me in the middle.

In the middle of the night, I started to have a horrible nightmare. I started thrashing around on the bed, hitting Spike and Angel in the process. They both woke up and saw me.

"What is going on Angel? What's happening to her?" He asked, scared that I was hurt.

"A nightmare it looks like. Wake her up slowly. I'll get her a rag." He got off the bed and went into the bathroom. As he was getting a rag, he heard Spike.

"Uh, Angel? Might want to get a trashcan. Little mess was just made." Angel sighed as he walked back in. I was sitting in Spike's lap holding onto him. Angel looked onto the floor and cringed.

"Sowwy Angel. I didn't mean too."

"It's okay child. I know you didn't mean too. Why don't we get you cleaned up and we'll talk about the dream huh?" He went over and picked me up. He carried me to the bathroom and set me next to the sink. He took the rag that was in his hand and wiped my mouth.

"So what was the dream about?" he asked as he kept wiping off my face.

"I don't want to talk about. It was a scary monster." I sniffed. Spike walked in and leaned on the counter next to me.

"You okay? You look like you're still scared."

"I am. That monster scared me. I don't want to go back to sleep. Don't make me." I clung onto his neck and held on. He sighed and hooked his arm around me. He stood up and held onto me as we walked back over to the bed. He sat down and held on still, waiting for Angel to come over and sit down. When Angel did sit down, I let go and sat between them.

"Its three hours until school starts. Are you sure you can't sleep? We'll be right here with you. There's nothing that can hurt you with us here. I promise."

"Okay I guess. I don't want you to leave though." I curled up into a ball at the foot of the bed and made a little nest of sheets around me until I was comfortable. Spike got his duster and put it on top of me so I would feel safer. I smiled as I drifted off to sleep again.

Angel lay back onto the pillows and sighed.

"Are you sure she's okay? One of us needs to stay awake incase she has the dream again."

"You go ahead and get some sleep. I'll watch her." He sat down at the foot of the bed next to me and just stared at me. Any movement that I made, he saw it. Angel watched this for a few more minutes until he finally lay down and fell into a deep sleep.

The next few hours went by slow for Spike but fast for Angel. When he woke up, he saw Spike getting ready to fall asleep.

"You could have woken me up. I didn't need to sleep that whole time."

"It's okay. I…. I didn't mind. I wasn't that tired." He yawned in the middle of his sentence so Angel didn't hear the rest.

"Spike, get some sleep. I'll take over your class for today. Let her sleep and is she wakes up, just send her to my classroom." He got up and went to take a quick shower.

After the shower, Angel got dressed and went to breakfast. Spike had fallen to sleep the minute his eyes closed and I was still asleep so he quietly snuck out of the room and ran to the Great Hall. He walked in the doors and saw that the trio of Gryffindors had got out of bed at that time so he got a bite to eat and headed over to them.

Harry saw Angel coming and informed the others of their visitor. Ron and Hermione looked up in time to see Angel sit down next to Harry.

"Hello professor. How was your night?" asked Harry when he saw how tired Angel looked.

"Terrible and could you just call me Angel? I don't like the formalities. I am not a prissy teacher."

"Okay Angel. Well, what happened?" asked Hermione. Angel looked at them before going into the long story of what had happened.

"Well, Kelsie woke up after having a bad dream and threw up. I cleaned her up and then spent about an hour coaxing her into going back to sleep. After she went to sleep, I got about 2 more hours until I woke up and saw that Spike had not slept at all since I went to sleep. He's in bed right now and I am going to take over his class for him." He said without even taking a breath. By the time he finished, he had lost Ron completely.

"That sounds horrible. Is she alright?" asked Hermione.

"Oh she's fine I think. She hasn't woken up yet so I guess she is sleeping fine. Don't be alarmed if I am asleep in class. I most likely will be."

"What can we do to help? We can watch the class if you want to get some sleep." added Hermione. Angel looked up at her through tired eyelids.

"That would be wonderful. I would appreciate that. Come by my classroom at the end of lunch and I'll show you what we are doing. I will also give you permission to take off house points if anything goes wrong." Harry and Ron looked at each other with an evil smile. Hermione glared at both of them.

"Don't worry Angel. I will not let them take off points for fun."

"No by all means. Have your way with Slytherin. No skin off my back." He smiled at Ron who jumped up and yelled in happiness. All was going great until Draco walked in followed by Snape. The first thing he saw was Angel talking and laughing with the Gryffindors. He loomed over to them and stood over Harry. Draco stood about 5 feet away ready to watch the show.

"What is going on here? Shouldn't you three be getting ready for class?" He glared at Ron. Angel had to think fast. They had his class next so he knew what to do.

"Actually Severus, they have my class next. I was telling them right as you walked up that since they have top grades in my class, they can have mine and Spike's class off to do as they please. In fact, all the Gryffindors are getting off. They will just sit in class doing what ever they feel like while the Slytherins, whose grades aren't the best, will work to get top grades too. After all, I'm sure that you want your house to come out on top. I know I would." He smiled as Snape saw his point but tried not to show it. He looked beyond Snape and saw Draco and he looked madder than he had ever seen. He looked back at the group of Gryffindors that had gathered around and saw them chatting with excitement. He looked back at Snape and saw that he turned on his heels and stormed off.

"That was bloody brilliant thinking Angel. The work of a true thinker." yelled Ron over the excited Gryffindors.

"And only Gryffindors can call me Angel. The rest have to call me professor. Fair?" He saw all the Gryffindors nod their heads and he nodded in return.

"Now I'll see you all in class if you feel like coming. Mind you, if you don't, Snape will be on the look out and you will miss a great beating on the Slytherins. You're choice." He stood up and walked out of the Great Hall.

"He is the coolest teacher in the world!" exclaimed Ron. Harry chuckled.

"Him and Spike both. I hope they stay for awhile." They all got up and headed for class.

In the corner, Draco and some more Slytherins were huddled together. They were all arguing.

"What are we going to do Draco? He's going to humiliate us." wined Pansy Parkinson.

"They same thing we always do. Let them think they've hurt us and wait until we get to Potions. At lease we have one teacher who is on our side." They all started agreeing with him and saw him stand back up.

"Lets go get this over with." He led the group to the DADA classroom and waited to begin the lesson.
