"Is it just me or does that look like…" Xander started, pointing to the back of a person as Anya looked to where he was pointing. She didn't know who he was talking about so she just shrugged.

"He has a nice body though; it would be fun to do things to him." Anya remarked as Xander gave her a look, obviously not liking what she said. "What? It's true." She replied bluntly to his face.

"I was about to say Angel. And the fact that you said that so does not make me want to date you. Angel is… bad. I mean, he ever gets a happy, he's coming back to Sunnydale to finish us off." Xander said, taking a drink from his cup as he set it back down on the table. "Oh… my…god it is Angel." Xander stuttered as the figure turned around.

"Darla?" Anya said, a smile on her face as a blonde turned around, looking to Anya first with anger but as she recognized the ex-demon a smile broke out across her face.

"Anyanka?" Darla asked, walking over to her. "Oh, I didn't recognize you child…" She cooed, walking over to her and wrapping her arms around her when she frowned, pulling back. "What's wrong? You… you are human…" Darla said, disgusted.

"I know… a wish backfired on me…" Anya replied, rolling her eyes. "What are you doing here? I thought… I got word you were staked and couldn't believe it… Darla, dead! I mean… remember Austria? After that I couldn't believe you were dead…"

"I was brought back to life. Poor… poor child… human… I was killed, but brought back to life… my poor girl…" Darla said. "Austria…" She said, remembering it as her cheeks glowed slightly with the thought of it. "Seeing all the schoolboys… running like that… that blood bath… oh… it almost gives me chills…" She cooed lowly.

"Anya… who are you talking…" Xander said, looking to the girl as his eyes widened. "YOU! It's psycho bitch! You are dead!" Xander cried out as Darla smiled at him, clicking her teeth together.

"I thought I was dead too. The stake went right through my heart… why, did you miss me?" Darla taunted. "I can still remember your little friend… he would've made a good little vampire… if you didn't have to stake him…"

"Darla, this is Xander Harris. He is my boyfriend." Anya cut in as Xander looked to Anya, bewildered.

"You know her? She killed my friend and turned him… evil!" Xander cried out, pulling out a stake as he held it out in front of him. Darla let out a growl, taking a cautious step back.

"Darla and I have been long time friends. We met in Austria, when we happen to have the same boy as a target. It was fun, we made a whole blood bath… and then we went out drinking…" Anya started, before she was cut off by Xander.

"An, Don't tell me that. Don't ever talk about that ever again." Xander said flatly as Darla frowned.

"Poor child… turned human… turned into the soulled filth." Darla growled. "Too bad you aren't demon, we have big plans here in Sunnydale, and you could've joined us… but dating him? You can do better than that…"

"Us?" Xander asked.

"Me, Harris. Still not the brightest Scoob, are we?" Angelus questioned, coming up behind Darla as he smiled to Xander. The color drained from his face as Anya looked behind her to her boyfriend, obviously not understanding what the big trouble was.

"Anyanka? Long time no see." Angelus cooed, putting his arms around Darla's waist as they both smiled darkly. Xander was scared, Anya was confused.

"I don't think I ever properly introduced you to Darla. My sire, my companion for over a hundred fifty years." Angelus cooed lowly, leaning down as he kissed her neck lightly, his eyes gazing up to Xander as his face vamped out and he bit into her flesh. Darla gave a soft cry, following by a moan. Angelus pulled out, his face reverting back into human form as he licked the teeth wounds.

"Hello Darla. Angelus, once Buffy hears you are back, she will kill you so fast. No more games… she is going to kill you." Xander said flatly.

"Don't be silly child. By the time she tries to even punch my darling boy… I will have killed her. She has gone against Angelus, and has gone against Spike. But never has she gone against the four of us. The legendary four." Darla cooed as Xander threw the stake at Darla and Angelus. They growled in pain, jumping back as Xander took off running. Anya stood there confused, looking back to Xander and then once at Angelus and Darla before she followed behind Xander, running.

"Should we catch them? I did like Anyanka… but that doesn't mean I won't kill her." Darla asked, looking up to Angelus, who shook his head, a smirk on his face.

"Let him tell Buffy. Let him tell Willow; let him tell the whole gang. They won't be able to kill us, and he knows it. Besides, I want her to be ready. I want to her to realize that she is no longer my girl. You are." Angelus breathed, licking her neck again, tasting her blood as they slowly walked from the Bronze, off to find Drusilla and Spike.

Dru couldn't believe it, her Spike was gone. Her William, her love. He was threatening to stake her, his sire, he savior. For the vampire slayer? Wasn't that her daddy's love? She couldn't believe it; first she was set on fire with her baby, her grandmum. And now this.

Buffy couldn't believe it; Spike was crazy. He went off the deep end. Spike couldn't love her, he was a vampire. And she kicked his ass all the time, and suddenly he wanted to be lovers? This all made her think back to Darla and Angel. Darla realized that Angel loved her, much like Dru realized Spike loved her. And Angel staked Darla, much like Spike is going to stake Dru. "Spike! The best chance you had with me was when I was unconscious!"

Spike was about to say something when Dru let out a shriek. "My baby! Help me… my William's being a bad boy… you came to save me, didn't you!" Dru cried out loudly as Darla ran over to Dru, looking to the chains as she let out a growl, shooting a look to Spike.

"Bloody hell, Dru was right. You are alive! I said a prayer when I got word you were staked." Spike said pointing to Darla, in shock as Darla took a step towards him.

"You remember our games Willie. Now unlock Drusilla." Darla said flatly. She used to torture him for hours because she didn't like his cocky attitude. Not that Drusilla protested, she thought it was all one fun game.

"Yes, Willie. Unlock Dru. Good job on the Slayer though; half of our job is done." Angelus cooed, coming up to Buffy as he ran a finger down her chin. Buffy jerked, looking to Angelus, realizing who it was as she looked to Spike.

"You set me up you son of a bitch! I trusted you; I let you into my house! I let you around Dawn and my mother! I don't care if it kills me, but I am going to stake your ass…" Buffy shouted at Spike, jerking to keep away from Angelus and his cold touch.

"Buff… this wasn't me… I didn't know they were coming… I thought Darla was dead… and Angel was still… Angel!" Spike cried out as the chains around Drusilla dropped. She stepped out, Darla coming up behind her as she ran her hands up Dru's arms, kissing her cheek lightly. "Grandmummy saved me…"

"That's right… and look what I brought you. Daddy is home, and as nasty as ever…" Darla replied, pointing to Angelus as he reached out, taking Dru's hand as he pulled her close.

"Sorry about the fire. Angel was feeling dark." Angelus said, casting a glance to Buffy as he continued. "Angel was also feeling dark when he fired all his friends and then got into bed with Darla. Who, what? Oh, right, gave him perfect happiness. It must've been all the love he was feeling for Darla… the nights he laid awake, thinking about her… dreaming about her…"

"But never once did Buffy's name get mentioned. Oh, wait, that's right. Angel did mention her. When he said that I could never give him perfect happiness, only you did that." Darla cut in, her hands sliding from Dru as she walked over to the chained Buffy.

"Guess she did. Because, look. No soul!" Angelus whispered darkly into Buffy's ear, running a cold finger over her cheek. Her body clenched as she looked straight ahead, not replying to Angelus' cruel words. With his touch she jerked away.

Buffy's heart was breaking with every word. She thought Angelus was bad enough… but with Darla, this seemed like it would only cut deeper into her. Her eyes gazed quickly over to Spike, who was staring back at Buffy. She realized he wasn't in on any of this and a part of her was relieved.

"Let me show you what it takes to make my boy happy." Darla said, coming up to Angelus as she pressed her body against him, running her hands up his silk shirt as her face vamped out and she bit into his neck.

Dru slammed a large block into Spike's head, causing a loud noise. Darla and Angelus both looked up in a slight daze, caught up in her drinking from him. "Bad dog grrumph! No helping the naughty slayer either…" Dru said at his passed out body, looking up to Buffy as she shook her finger. "He wanted to help you… my puppy has gone bad in the head."

"At least you aren't alone anymore." Angelus replied to Dru, gasping for breath as he pushed Darla away, putting a hand to his neck. "Enough love, I want to hurt Buffy. Or Spike, whichever… since he seems to be fighting the good fight… I want take out his tongue."

"Calm down." Darla scolded, putting a hand to his chest as her face reverted back into human form. She walked over to Dru, who was speaking to herself, bent over Spike's body. "Dru, child, let's tie him up, alright?" Darla said slowly, breaking Dru from her daze as she nodded.

"Ohhhh my gawd! There's a party and Blondie Bear didn't even invite me! That is so unfair! Wait a minute… this isn't a party." Harmony said, her hands on her hips as everyone in the crypt stopped, looking back to gaze at the blonde vampire. "Angel? Like what are you doing here?"
