Chapter 5: The Way We Where

(Previously on my extremely short and not recently updated Story)

"Buffy, we go in calmly and no one gets dusty." Angel said knocking on the mansion door. "I said you get one shot, but if Willow's hurt all bets are off." Buffy finished as a female vamp answered the door.

She quickly lowered her eyes after realizing who was standing in front of her. "Master Angelus, please come in." As she quickly moved out of the doorway.

Angel nodded to the younger vampire walking through the door, and the gang followed behind. Buffy soon took his side with ax in hand.

"Uh-oh pet daddy's home better put down the good china." William said as he clapped, grabbing Willow's arm as he bounced out of the room.

As the scoobies walked in the center of the building there attention was now toward the grand stair case. It was old and crumbling but still had the regal presence of years passed. The bubbling William reached the top of the stair way Willow still firm in his grasp.

"Likes to make an entrance don't he." Xander snipped as Buffy and he stood in battle stance. William's face turned to a wicked smile. Staring directly at Angel he grabbed Willow around the throat, lifting her off the ground.

"Well, well here's our fluffy slayer. Not following the rules, now are we?" William smiled. "Buffy! Hel…" Willow's screams where soon silenced. There where now three more body guards surrounding the scoobie crew. Angel stepped forward facing the stairs.

"Spike put her down right now!" Angel's voice booming through the large space. "No, no, no not today. It's not a ball, we can't wear masks." William replied as his grip around Willow's neck tightened. The vampires surrounded them yet they didn't attack. They remained still. Buffy took the second off guard as she moved towards the stairs.

"William, you're going to listen to me' boy. You will no longer disobey me." Angel said with his accent heavy. Everyone's attention went from the now dusty remnants of the three vampires, to a crossbow wielding Spike. After killing his vampires he then let go of the traumatized Willow, who raced into the arms her friends.

A giddy Spike went to Angel's side "Knew you where still inside, in the parts you can't see. Are you very cross with me?" William said as he rubbed himself close to Angel.

"Yes, I'm very upset you can't hurt people like that. Every. Will, do you hear me?" Angel said with his grip around Spike's shoulder. Spike put his head down on Angel's chest, pulling himself close. "Um, sorry, didn't wanna ert er. She's a pretty thing, just wanted to play for a bit. I was lonely all by m'self without you. You where busy with the slayer, grandma told about er. She was killing you. I came to save you."

Two days passed since Willow's abduction. Buffy continued patrolling thankfully with no sightings of Angel or his new fair haired counterpart. Rounding the corner of a marble angel tombstone the slayer saw four hands sticking out the ground. "A fresh new batch of vamps, I must be in Sunnydale." Buffy quipped as prepared to take out the fledglings. But what she didn't expect was a now seemingly more lucid Spike wearing a leather duster taking them out. He first pulled them both out of the ground, and they like Buffy thought he was helping them. They both though where in for a surprise, as the new vampires were soon dust in the wind.

A/N: Thank you soooo much to my faithful supporters. I know I'm evil for this extremely short chapter, but maybe this will show I'm still trying. So please review, and share any new ideas.
