Disclaimer: I own Amelia, Hendrix (Drix), and Reagan, but that's it.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: This story is set at the beginning of Season 5 of Angel. Remember how Wesley said he thought the loved Fred before he had first laid eyes on her? Well, he did. They were married with three children, in fact. That is before, the mind wipe the Council performed in order to get Wesley to come back to them and be Buffy and Faith's Watcher. Confused? Well, read and it'll make a little more sense, I promise. The story starts with the morning after Angel had the mind wipe performed.

Los Angeles, California, August 18, 2003

Wesley awoke with a start in his bed. He looked around the room to find it an unfamiliar one. The last memory he had was watching his father and some other men of the Council dragging Fred, Amelia, and Drix away. He had to find them but where was he?

Fred sat up in bed and looked around. This wasn't the containment cell where she had been a moment ago. Where had those men taken her? Where had they taken her babies? The last thing she remembered was having her newborn baby girl, Amelia, and little Drix taken from her by those men, those evil men that had taken her and the children from Wesley. She had to find them, but first she had to find out where she was.

Wesley looked around the apartment living room. There had to be some sort of phone book or map that would give him a clue as to where he was. He looked inside one of the desks chores and found a picture of himself, another man, and a brown haired woman. What was this. . .it was Cordelia and Angel. He worked with Angel!

Suddenly, all his present memories came back. He worked at Wolfram and Hart. He worked with Fred, he could find her there! Wesley pulled on a pair of shoes and grabbed his cars keys on the way out the door. He raced down to his car and pulled open the door. He had to get to Fred. They had to find the kids!

Fred looked around her apartment and found a remote for the TV. She switched it on to find a weather woman giving the forecast for Los Angeles and she realized that she was in L.A., where she had been for the last three years, since Angel had rescued her. Wesley had been with him as well. Her Wesley was here, her husband.

She grabbed her car keys and ran for the apartment door. She nearly tripped down the stairs she was going so fast, but she managed to make it to her little car. Her hand shook badly as she started the engine and then pulled out of the parking lot. She had to get to Wesley and they had to find the kids.

Lorne walked into the lobby of Wolfram and Hart carrying a fresh cup of coffee and taking in the sight of the coporate law offices of Hell.

"Good morning, Mr. Lorne."

"Good morning."

Ah, it was good to have some power, he thought just as Wesley came in, still in his pajamas.

"Wild night, Wes. . ."

Wesley grabbed the demon's shoulders and shook him.

"Is Fred here?"

"Take it easy, sugarcakes, she's not in yet, maybe you should go home and put on some. . ."

Lorne didn't get to finish though, because just then Fred came in, still in her pajamas as well.

"Are we having a slumber party or have you two just gone. . ."

Wesley caught sight of his wife and ran over to her, taking her in his arms and giving her a passionate kiss.

"Okay, you two are definitely nuts!"

The two broke apart after a moment.

"Where are the kids?"

"They took them."

"K-kids? You two had kids?"

Wesley sighed and waved a hand at Lorne in frustration.

"Yes, three, there's no time to explain though, we have to find them. Do you remember where they took them, Fred?"

"No, they just took them from me. Oh, Wes, they took our baby, our baby girl, they took her, and Amelia and Drix as well, they're all gone."

Wesley wiped away her tears and kissed her cheek.

"We'll get them back, love, I promise. We have to act now, though."

With that Wesley took Fred's hand and went led her upstairs. They were going to have to find where the Council took the children and then there would be Hell to pay.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: So, what do you think? Please review! I live for them. Sorry the chappie is so short by the way but I promise the next one will be longer and have more explanations. It's a flashback chapter so you get to meet the kids!
