It's A Trip

                                                          Chapter 1

                                                          "Genius"

A/N: Okay thanks to everyone who reviewed the other story, Sarai being sent to the past won the vote. And since little Sarai showing up came in second, I promise that will be the next Sarai story after this one is done. Also, the first part of this chapter will be told in Angel's POV.

Finally this day is over. I honestly don't know if today could've gone any worse. I really hate my job. Huh. At least its Friday though. At last. I'm at the front door. I open it up and step into the penthouse to see Sarai sitting on the couch. I must look really aggravated because she just asked if I had a bad day.

"That would be an understatement." I answer, sitting down next to her and resting my head on her shoulder.

"Poor daddy." she says as she pats me on the head. "Skittles, come here and help me make daddy feel better." she then orders to her dog. The dog then jumps up on the couch and puts her paw on my arm and licks my face. Yeah Skittles, that makes up for peeing on my favorite shoes this morning. "So what happened today?" Sarai asks.

So I start to tell her about my day, at the moment she's laughing at the story about her dog and the shoes....figures. This is still a bit strange to me, just being able to talk about things. It's nice....but still strange. I guess I'm still not used to it. I mean, I'm supposed to be the strong champion, fixing other peoples problems, not have any of my own. But that's why I can talk to Sarai so freely, cause she's the only one who doesn't see me as a hero, or a vampire and doesn't have any demands or expectations of me...

"Hey! Stop hogging the whole couch!" she just tells me. Okay, so she has some demands, but as you can tell they're small ones, not 'go save the world/ fight the good fight'. I'm relaxed around her....I'm well....me. Hey, wait a minute is that clock right? Is it really midnight? Huh, guess so.

"I think someone should be getting to bed now." I say.

"Its early still." she argues.

"No its not." I counter

"Is too. Its after midnight, which means its Saturday, early Saturday."

"Do like have a list somewhere of lines and fights to use and pick with me? Or do you really just come up with this on the spot?" I really want to know the answer to this.

"I could tell you bet then I'd have to kill you."

"So, instead you'd rather just keep it to yourself and annoy me?"

"YUP!" she exclaims happily. I love her so much. Ok, now she's going off to bed and I think I'll do the same.

The next morning:

What am I thinking? I can't believe I'm actually letting Sarai have Ryan over while Wesley, Doyle and I go to a hockey game. And the worst part is that I'll be leaving before he get here so I can't even threaten him.

"Oh, and the results of that IQ testy-thing came in the mail." she hands me an envelope from the pile of today's mail.. Fred suggested that I have her tested just to see if the fact that she's a highschool senior at the age of 15 is because of how much she learned growing up, or because she's 'special' as Fred called it. I explained to Fred that Sarai is in fact the most special child in the world, but she just rolled her eyes and gave me the card of some place where she could be tested. So, now I'm opening the envelope and....huh? Is this for real.

"Angel, man why are ya eyes buggin' out like that?" Doyle asks me. I hand him the paper. "HOLY CRAP!" he yells. I couldn't have said it better myself. "145." he adds.

"Its says her IQ 145!" Wesley exclaims.

"Is that bad?" Sarai asks.

"Bad? Bad? That's....genius. MY IQ...Fred's aren't even that high." Wesley says in between breaths. I think he might be having some kind of seizure or heart attack.

"I'm a genius?"   Oh no, this is gonna go right to her head. "HAHAHA. I-m-a-genius-and Wesley's-not-"she's now singing as she skips around the room, that is until she slams right into a wall.

"See." Wesley said pointing. "She-she-she can't be a genius." I would say something but really the fact that someone who is so strong, so good in a fight and now apparently is a genius can manage to trip over absolutely nothing/ fall down stairs/ walk into walls/ and pretty much destroy any appliance or break anything expensive accidently, on a regular, basis boggles my mind. But that's what makes her Sarai, my princess, my sanity, my well...reason for every bit of happiness I have. But of course if I told her that, her head might very well explode.

"Sarai, please stop taunting Wesley." I ask. It doesn't work.

"Come on, lets go. Wes, we'll get some drinks at the game, have some fun and you'll be fine." Doyle says.

"Yes, yes, alcohol. Needing that very much right now." he answers as Doyle helps him to the car. As I leave the penthouse, I notice a look on Sarai's face.

"You're going to leave taunting messages on in answering machine aren't you?" I ask her.

"Yup, along with making copies of this and having them plastered in his office as wallpaper" she tells me.

That's my little girl for you.

I'm leaving now.

A/N: Angel's POV is over with and it will now be written in 3rd person form.

"So what do you want to watch?" Sarai asked Ryan as the sat in the living room.

"I don't know. I'm still hungry though." Ryan said.

"Me too. We finished the pizza though."

"You wanna get another one?"

"That involves time and money though. Oh I've got an idea." Sarai said getting a spell book from Angel's bookcase.

"What are doing?" Ryan asked nervously.

"I'm gonna do a spell to send the pizza back to us."

"I don't know.....should you be doing that?"

"Hey, I am a genius you know."

"Yes, I know. You told me 15 times today." Ryan answered.

Sarai just glared at him and performed her spell. At the end of the spell a while blast filled the room and knocked the teenagers out.

When Sarai and Ryan awoke they found themselves on the floor of the Hyperion Hotel.

"What? How'd we get here?" Sarai asked.

"Where is here?" Ryan said.

"The Hyperion. Where I used to live with my dad."

Just then they saw a familiar face.

"Lorne, what are you doing here?" Sarai them asked.

Lorne snorted. "What am I doing here? What are you here? I thought you ran off again."

Sarai was confused. "What are you talking about? Why are here? And why are you sneering at me? What's going on? Why does this always happen to me."

"Why I am I sneering at you? Look Rosemary's baby, I've had enough of your whining, running out and thinking that your better then me. Grow up and get over it!" Lorne snapped.

Tears started to fill Sarai's eyes as a result of her very good friend's comments. "Wh-what? Why are you being mean to me?"

Before Lorne could answer Angel walked in.

"I don't care you're staying here. And what were you thinking." Angel said talking to someone behind him.

"You can't tell me what to do. And I don't have to answer to you." said a voice behind Angel, coming into full view of the others. That person was Sarai.

Lorne, Ryan and Sarai's eyes widened. Then Ryan and Sarai noticed a calendar on the wall said January, 2003.

"Oh shit." Sarai mutters under her breath.

Ryan get as a smirk on his face. "Genius. Just genius." he said sarcastically.

"Ok, now I wan to know what's going on." Lorne said.

A/N: So that's the first chapter.  Reviews for it would be great.   And by the by, season 4 is not the only season she'll visit, in fact she'll be visiting 1-4 and 2-3 of Buffy. So, if there's anything you'd like to see happen in one of them, feel free to suggest them in your reviews.
