Spilers/Timing: Takes place in Buffy season 6/7(ish) What is in Angel season 4, Angelus hadn't been kept in the cage in L.A, but in one in Buffy's basement and BtVS characters had to take turns watching him.

I've made Angelus Spike's sire, I know Dru is but hey, I've always prefered the idea of Angelus, like Joss mentioned in 'School Hard' 'In the dark' and probably some other episodes I can't remember :D

Oh no soul for Spike, but he still has a chip (well for now anyway...)

Oh and one more thing :p Xander never left Anya at the alter!

"Spike!" Dawn shouted across the room. Spike was going to ignore her, but he couldn't so instead he turned to her.

"Are you ok? You seem a little distant?"

"No, I'm fine"

"I thought you were meant to be watching Angelus?"

"Erm no, Buffy took over so I came up for a bit. I was gonna go out"

"Oh don't please, I'm bored I've got no one to talk to, and Buffy won't let me go into the basement with her"

"Too right she shouldn't, you aren't going anywhere near Angelus. And anyway where's Red and the Whelp?"

"Willow is busy doing some spell thingy with Tara and Xander is out with Anya somewhere. And anyway, where were you planning on going? Its still daylight!"

"It is? Oh right, I thought it was later than it was, I kind of lost track with all the closed curtains"

"Well I could open the curtains for you if you want, then from your spot on the floor as a burnt pile of ashes you could always know what time it was" Dawn smiled jokingly up at him hoping to improve his mood. Spike atempted a small smile before heading up to his room.

"I'm tired, I'm gonna go and get a bit of sleep now niblet, I've gotta watch Angelus again later"

"Ok nighty night Spike!" She smiled up at him as he walked past her and up the stairs, wondering what was bothering him so much.

A few hours later Spike was still looking at the ceiling from his bed, he couldn't out it off any longer, he was going to have to go and see Angelus again. He ran his tongue over his teeth, he could still taste his sire's blood. He got up and walked downstairs into the basement, Buffy was still sat there, Angelus now had some paper and a packet of pencils.

"Buffy? Why'd you give him those?"

"He was moaning, god I could swear he's almost as whiny as you sometimes" She tilted her head to the side as she thought about it for a second "Ok well maybe not that whiny, but still annoying"

Spike began to head back upstairs, the last thing he needed was Angelus drawing pictures of him, not like he used to. Buffy caught him before he reached the steps though.

"You came down 'cause it's your turn to look after him, remember?"

"Oh right, yeh sure luv"

"I'm going to go and get some quality sleep. Scream if he escapes from his cage or whatever, other than that try and keep it down!"

"Didn't know you cared" Spike mumbled under his breath.

"Hello again William" Spike instantly turned his attentions towards Angelus, watching him closley, trying to work out where he was going with the 'lets be nice to Will' act, it was not something Spike was used to.

"You thirsty? I have some extra blood if you're in need of any"

"Screw you, wanker"

"You remember the old times as well then William?" Spike just returned this comment with a glare

"Awww, come on, you not gonna smile for your picture?" Spike only just then noticed that the whole time they had been talking Angelus had been sketching away at his pad, something he'd always liked to do. Spike remembered a particular time when he had been forced to sit still, not moving a muscle for over 12 hours while Angelus sketched him, he hadn't even been alowed to move his eyes, let alone have some blood.

Angelus, as if reading his mind added "It's ok, I've got better at my sketching, you don't have to be perfectly still for me to draw you any more"

A while later Spike got bored and stood up to go and see what Angelus was doing, now he had finished sketching. He was twirling the keys in his hand when quicker than even his vampire eye-sight could see Angelus stood up, put his hands through the bars and grabbed the keys off him, he unlocked the cage and was stood next to Spike.

"Get into the cage Will"

"What? You've gotta be kidding?" Spike had a look of pure disbelief on his face, Angelus expected him to get into the cage of his own free will? Not likely.

"Get into the cage before I put you in the cage" Angelus spoke softly, almost a whisper, but Spike recognised that voice, and it hinted more than just a little bit of danger, and from past experience he knew he would be better off getting into the cage without a fight, he may need the energy later on, besides Angelus was easily stronger than him and if push came to shove he wouldn't be able to stake his sire, but he knew Angelus would have no problem in staking him. He walked slowly into the cage which Angelus then locked behind him, he then walked up the steps to round up the scooby gang.

Dawn was the easiest, she had her headphones on in her room so all he had to do was sneak up behind and place his hand over her mouth and he carried her downstairs and shut her in the cage with Spike, she was about to scream for Buffy when Spike stopped her.

"Shhhh, please niblet, screaming isn't going to help"Spike tried to give her what he thought was a reasuring smile. Angelus smiled as he went back upstairs, this time armed with a tranquiliser gun, obviously it had been for if he got out of control, he counted the bullets,6 well this was going to be fun then wasn't it.

The first five when down without a problem at all, but Buffy, she was going to be the hardest. He crept quietly into her room when she was lying, her back facing him. She had obviously sensed the vampire presence in the room

"Spike"

Angelus decided to use this to his advantage, and instead of speaking like he had intended on doing, he just quietly lifted up the gun, she was fast asleep in no time at all, now he just had to carry the lot of them downstairs to the cage before they woke up.
