Then came Eve
I should have never gone to Angel, i just wanted to run away. I pulled my self up off the floor, grabbe my bag and headed towards the door.
"Pheonix i know Spike and I wernt exactly the best of friends, heck we hated each other. But when you where born Spike told me that if anything happned to him that i had to watch over you and to make sure no harm came to you. So guess what your not going any where." Angel finished and i sighed. I was so angry with Angel but i knew he wasnt going to let me walk out of the building.
"Alright ill stay, no doubt you'd come after me any way. And i suppose one more kid wont be a probblem for you. Where is Connor any way."
"Erm who's Connor?" I turned around and relised that that Fred was still in the room. Long raven hair came just to her houlder andblue eyes made her face seem even more pale.
Was this some kind of joke asking me who Connor was. Fred was there when Connor was born.
"Connor, about yay high." I put my hand above my head.
"Teenage boy, brow hair, green eyes, hates tomatoes." I said looking into Freds confused face couldnt undersatnd becaue Fred was one of the most smartest people that i had ever had the pleasure to meet. had she hi her head or somthing like that.
"Angel what is she going on about." Fred looked across to Angel with a conffused face.
"Yes Angel where is Connor. Dont tell me that you've hit your head aswell. You know Connor, your so-"
"Pheonix." Angel rushed over to me.
"Why dont you go up stairs" he said looking nervous at me.
"Right im really conffused now. I supposed im going to have too go in that evil looking elivator over there." I sighed and walked over to the other side of the room and pushed the button becasue there was only one.
Stepping into the elivator i looked back at the worrying look on Angels face and the conffusion on Fred's. The door closed and luckily there was no annoying muic becasue i needed to think.
The elivator stopped, the doors opene and i stepped into what looked like a small classy apartment. This was pretty good for Angel to say that he had lived in a sewer pipe once for a year.
The floor was dark and wooden with a black rug spread across the floor. The walls were black and wood and a huge book case was on the far side. A king size bed was at the far end of the room and if you hadnt guessed already the duvet was black.
There was a balck sofa near the the book case and i slumped down in to it throwing my bag down. I sat there for a minute with my head in my hands trying to figure every thing out. Why didnt Ferd remember who Connor was and why was Angel trying to stop me from talking.
I looked up to see he elivator door and Angel stepped out of it not looking at me. He walked over to the sofa and he too placed his head in his hands.
"So are you going to tell me whats going on." I asked still not looking at Angel.
" I t was part of the agreement when i took this job." he sighed and i looked over to the vampire who hadnt aged in two hundred and thirty years and i saw saddness upon his face.
"The seniour partners here alted reality. They gave Connor a child hood and a life. He doesnt remember me and every one else doesnt remember him." Angel sighed and i looked up too him.
"So you just gave up becasue you couldnt handle him, and too think you had the cheek to call Spike a bad father." I was angry again, even more so than before.
"Pheonix, he was going to kill him self and Cordelia." Angel lookedat me and I sighed. I was not going to play dumb becasue i knew this couldn't be all Angels fault becasue these things just happned.
"So where is Corrdelia." I didnt want to carry on the conversation any more about Connor.
"Shes in the hospital in a coma." Angel sighed.
"Wow, alots happned then." I said standing up and walking over to the window, thinking great now im stuck here and i really dont want to be.
Looking down into the street below i watched all the people rushing about knowing that non of them where being held against there will. Then i sighed and remembered that non of them where vampires.
My staring was distracted from the noise of the eleivator and i turned around and saw a young woman step out. She looked about in her tweentys with straight red hair and a gaunt expresion which almost made me snigger.
"Eve what are you doing in here." Angel stood up.
"Well Fred told me that you where up here." The womn said sitting down on the sofa making her slef at home.
"S you thought youd invite your self in." Angel asked and i didnt need to be a vampire to see that Angel did not like her. I didnt like the look of Eve my self and then she turned to me.
"Hi i'm Eve, messenger of the seniour partners." Said Eve smilling with her hand out but i didnt take it.
"Im Pheonix." I told the woman as i walked over to Angel.
"Pheonix, thee Pheonix." Eve asked with a surprissed smile and i rolled my eyes.
I really didnt like this woman and i really didnt like what Angel said next either.
"Eve will you show Pheonix around for me." Agel said placing a hand on my shoulder.
"What? Angel can't you?" I asked hoplessly looking up because i didnt want o be left with little miss messanger.
"Ive got to go see Wesley and if Eve try's any thing you can eat her." Angel said smilling and i lightened up.
"Cool." I said folding my arms. Even though i didn't eat humans i still liked the thought of killing Eve becasue even though she didn't look evil she seemed it too me.
The whole of Wolfram and Hart seemed a whole lot smaller to me when i saw all the lawers arive. Pluss it didnt help the size issue when here was w whole load of demo clients waiting to be seen.
I did notice that i was getting alot of funny looks of people, maybe becasue to them i was a fithteen year old girl with a skate board attached to my back.
Also i noticed tha Eve was pretty popular, esspecially amongst the males in the building. I had to ask yet again who she was becasue frankly i didnt know.
"Eve what exactly do you do here." I asked her as she sighned some documents for a very timid looking lawer.
"Like i said, im the messanger for the seniour partners." She said as we walked on.
"And who or what are the seniour partners." I asked looking currious, picturing a llong table of old stiffs drinking tea and gathering dust.
"Well if i told you that i would have to kill you." Eve walked on and stopped in front of an elivator pressing the button and stepping in.
"You do remember what Angel said up there about you touching me." I told her cooly as i stepped into the metalic elivator.
"Just ignore him, he's alway moody." Eve did have a point there because as far back as i could remember Angel was always a bit grumpy.
"Is it me or are there alot of elivators around this place." I asked looking around the elivator as it soared upwards. I didnt really feal like disscussing Angel with Eve even if i didnt hate him at that moment in time.
"This one leads to where some of the employers live." Eve smilled.
"Ohh." Ask a stupid question i thought to my self.
The elivator stopped and the door opened to reveal yet another long corridor. Luckily this one was deserted and it reminded me of walking down a hotel corridor.
Eve paused out side the door number twelve.
"Well i guess this is your place." Said Eve handing me the key.
"What do you mean guess." I said curriouslt and then i noticed the number tweelve on the key.
"Ohh right." I said unlocking the door.
"Well if you need me i'll be down stairs." Eve smilled and turned and walked away. I glared at her as she went becasue she seemed way too nice to my liking.
I opened the door to the apartment and waked inside dropping my bag to the floor. It was just a bit smaller than Angels with the colour skeem of blue but it was so dark it may have well have been black.
With a shake of my head i closed the door and took a run and jump onto the bed. I couldnt belive that an hour ago i wanted to pull every hair out of Angels head and use them too make a paint brush. And now here i was i Los Angeles, not quite against my will, but still i was stuck here but i was going to make my life a bit more fun.
