"OH NOOO!" screamed Angel. Cordy, Wes, Gunn, Fred, and Lorne all stood at the balcony watching Angel paint covered glare at the dog with extreme hate. Then Zev did the only thing that could make this worse. He shook

Covering Angel in even more paint. Angel shot his stare up at the balcony and the others. He saw the only person with a smile on her face. "CORDELIA!"

"No, no, no and NO!" yelled Angel, as everyone sat on either the couch or on the floor their back to the couch. While Angel stood in front of them.

"Angel, why not?" asked Cordelia.

"I own this Hotel, I live here. You guys don't. You can keep him, just not here!"

"None of our apartments allow pets!" Gunn yelled.

"Well then you'll just have to get rid of him!" yelled Angel. Lorne came into the room; a towel in his hand and Angel violently snatched it from Lorne.

"No!" yelled Fred. Everyone got really quite. Fred stood up to Angel?

"W-what?" asked Angel as he took the towel and cleaned out his ear just to make sure he heard what he heard was right?

"Angel, just give him a month," mumbled Fred.

"3 days." Angel sniped back.

"3 weeks." Cordelia snapped standing up.

"One week."

"3 and a half weeks." Gunn said standing up.

"A week and a half." Angel sniped back.

"2 and a half." Piped Lorne.

"A week and 5 days."

"2 weeks." Wesley said standing up and he spoke with firmness in his voice. Angel and Wesley did a small stare down. Wesley had gotten quite a backbone from being the boss. And he to know had that "Boss" glare. Then Angel sighed.

"Fine, 2 weeks, and not a minute more." Angel sighed. "Now could someone please get this dog out of here until I get this cleaned up!"

Day 1:

"Guy's where my burrito?" asked Angel.

"Angel you don't eat."

"Yeh but sometimes I get a hankering." he shrugged. Suddenly he looked down and saw a Zev have the burrito in his mouth. And in one bite and gulp it went down his throat, leaving one very pissed off vampire.

Day 2:

"Uuuh Angel." said Gunn.

"Ya?" asked Angel.

"I found your burrito." he replied nervously. Angel peeked into the office to see his duster covered in well... vomit...Zev standing next to his duster wagging his tail happily.

Day 6:

"WESLEY!" yelled Angel, as he saw him room covered in mud. Zev sitting their innocently wagging his tail. Now since Zev wasn't locked up he was watched less closely and was now running the hotel.

Day 7: "WESLEY!" yelled Angel as he came out of the show, Zev on his bed, on his back sleeping soundly, yet he slept at an angle where Angel could not get on his own bed.

Day 9: "WESLEY!" screamed Angel after he had gone running downstairs to the lobby after hearing a crash. There stood Zev with the weapon cabinets open, all the weapons sprawled across the floor.

Day 12: "WESLEY!" screamed Angel as Zev sat in his room, Angel's sketchbook town into pieces.

Day 13: "WESLEY!" screamed Angel as he put on one of his socks; his big toe went right through a hole.

Day 14: "WESLEY!" yelled Angel. Zev had been chasing that evil squirrel again and had ran under Angel's coffee table where his cup of blood resided, making the table wobble, and in the end, Zev had a giant cup of blood staining his fur. He made a small moaning sound.

"That dog is out of here!" yelled Angel.

"But Angel he's just a puppy really."

"So? We're running a business not an Animal shelter!" yelled Angel.

"Angel don't you realize what your doing? Your taking Zev away from us!" Fred stood up.

"So?"

"Zev was what got me better Angel!" Fred screamed loudly. Everyone became slightly shocked. "He made me go outside for the first time, in the middle of the night when I was scared, I had dreams that someone came and slept on my bed with me. But now I realize it wasn't a dream! It was Zev! Zev helped me get through a lot! You can't take him away you just can't!" Everyone remained silent.

"Uuuh hey Cordelia." said Gunn as he came out to the garden where Cordelia was sitting having just come back from a jog with Zev.

"Oh uuuh hey." she mumbled. Ever since Zev she had been going jogging more often, and had gotten quite fit. That and some of her training with Angel.

"You hear about Fred?"

"Yeh, she like exploded on Angel? And like ran up to her room? And Angel's in total brood mode? No I haven't." she replied sarcastically.

"Look, Cordy," Gunn sighed sitting at her side. "I think we should talk."

"About what?" she replied standing up nervously.

"You know perfectly well what. Cordelia you promised me you'd help me find peace but ever since...well ya know... I haven't really been at peace." Gunn sighed folding his hands and looking at his feet.

"I know." sighed Cordy.

"You ok love?" asked Wesley as they sat in the lobby on the couch. She had her head on his chest, and he was running fingers through her hair.

"No," she mumbled. Wesley is I being silly? I mean I know Zev is just a dog but...I dunno... I mean I grew up with Animals... they're part of me."

"I know love," sighed Wesley as he kissed her forehead. "And no.your not being silly, not at all."

Holtz chuckled as he watched from his spot under the hotel. About 4 screens where on the wall. Each showing a different spot in the hotel. He had a friend of his tap into Wolfram and Harts video camera's and now he saw what they saw. They were falling apart; maybe Zev was still loyal to his once master. And they barely have scratched the surface of the things he can do. He was tearing them apart,
