Author Note: This story has basis of Dark Angel, which rocked until they took it off the air! So please don't think it's a crossover, okay? But it has it's own plot to it, so don't worry. And if it sounds a weeeeeeeeeeeeee bit confusing it works in my head and will be editing previouse chapters.
Sorry it took so long to update so while you guys were 'hanging' I made a very long chapter for you to enjoy. Have fun.
Detective Liam Angelus and Detective Charles Gunn entered the tenth hit that the 'slayers' had stolen from. It was five days till the Museum reported the theft, thinking that the thieves were spooked and left the scene when the mask looked untouched. They replaced the glass quickly and kept everything quiet, it was only a simple janitor noticed the fake since he always admired the mask. It had caused a huge embarrassment to the museum that their high-tech security couldn't stop the Slayers from stealing from them after daring them to attempt it several days before. Angelus scanned the room quietly while Gunn went over to crime scene in question noticing the manager was there and couldn't stop himself.
"So what happened?" Gunn said, trying not give the manager the told you so speech, Gunn heard the dare this man had placed upon the slayers and he knew he was regretting it.
"You damn well know what happened" the manager angrily.
"Well Mr Snyder we did warn you not to play around with them" Gunn said, making sure he wasn't smirking at the man.
While Gunn tried not to do his victory dance in front at the ratty toad of a manager Angelus spotted what he needed. He walk several paces till he was directly under the air vent latch and notice a screw missing. He look over to his partner who looked back at him and smiled. He then gestured with his eyes were they came through to Gunn and followed where he meant and nodded in reply.
"Mr Snyder, the mask has indeed been stolen by the slayers" Angelus said as he walked up to the rat man.
"This is un-acceptable" the manager replied angrily.
"As far as we know this Museum has the best security in this country" Angelus replied sharply "No one can break in, without setting the alarms off in the room of the priceless items here. Even the security laser beams around these priceless items can't be rewired since there on three separate systems that can't be tampered with. But if you look to your right" he points to the spot were the mask once was "you'll see that they did it, without breaking a sweat"
"But it couldn't be them" the manager said.
"Mr Snyder, my partner and I have been working on the slayers case long enough to know that when they leave, they leave a mystery behind them" Gunn said "Excuse us" they turned around and left "you sure its them?"
"Yeah it's them,that air vent would have been very tight for us to move through it" Angelus said "So they left us a little clue about them"
"They had to be small guys" Gunn grinned.
"Who said they were men?" Angelus said "Who said they were adults? Who said they weren't children? As far as we know one or all of them can fit through the damn thing"
"All I'm saying Liam is that they happen to be small, man" Gunn grunted "Don't pull the third degree with me, I already have that with Cordy"
"How is she by the way?" Angelus asked.
"This time she wouldn't let me sleep in our bed incase she might catch something and give it to the baby" Gunn said then began to imitate his wife "Charles if you take one more step to the bed I'm going to stab you with my prada heels! There are germs on you that could harm the baby!" Gunn grunted in annoyance "It's my bed goddamit woman, I paid for it, I should be sleeping in it. The other day she kicked me in the balls because I said she had a nice ass and then she got all teary because she thought she'd made me infertile" Gunn sighed "I'm just hoping she doesn't want another one, Michael and Chris cause enough trouble as it is and this baby is like ticking time bomb" Gunn then smiled "But other then that it's been great, I actually felt the baby kick"
"Do you know the sex?" Angelus asked with a smile shaking his head in amusement.
"We're doing the same thing like we did with the boys" Gunn said "We're gonna wait and see"
"Cool" Angelus said then checks the time "Well I gotta go"
"Meeting a lady friend?" Gunn asked as the exited the building and headed for Gunn's car.
"Actually meeting a lady friend friend" Angelus smirked as they went down the steps from the museum.
"You're going to get into some serious trouble Liam" Gunn laugh quietly at his friends antics.
"You know me, I can't help it if a lady likes me" Angelus continuously smirked.
Gunn rolled his eyes at his friend, Liam was never the type to find a woman and settle down "One of these days Liam you're gonna trip and fall head over heels in love like any other guy if you're not careful " Gunn said as he opened the door, got into the car and shut the door behind him.
"Yeah but un-like the other guys I watch were I step" Angelus quipped.
Gunn chuckle at his joke "You wanna ride?"
"Nah, it's only a couple of blocks. I can walk it" Angelus smiled then waved his friend goodbye as Gunn drove off.
Angelus smiled as he watched the car turned the corner and disappears, then heads off to the coffee shop. It took him a couple of minutes to find it, buy a doughnut and a coffee to go and bench to sit down and have them. He had time to stop and think about the Slayer case.
He and Gunn were talking about the wedding between Cordelia and Gunn when the chief slapped the folder on his desk and barked orders to get them since they were the 'best' in the force. At each case the slayers seemed be un-stoppable force, the knowledge and skills they had to steal and break the system was flawless. But what made these people un-believable was how they replicate the objects they were about to steal made any con-artist jealous. He and Gunn knew they prepared for the job, the recreated the object, swap it with the real thing, sell it with no one the wiser until its too late. No body knew if their artefacts were the real deal or have been swapped with a fake. But whatever the case the Slayers always went for artefact that either had a high price to it or had high security just to take the piss with the security.
As Angelus finished his doughnut and began to take a sip of his coffee when his saw a pretty petite blonde walk across the road in the corner of his left eye. The blonde in question had suddenly got her heel stuck in a man hole just as a lorry roared down the road. The lorry man hit the breaks only resulting to the lorry to screech forward as he tried to stop the vehicle from moving and the woman was just another deer in headlights. Without a second thought Angelus dropped his coffee and ran to the woman's rescue. He zoomed into the woman, taking the shoe off in the process, missed his footing at some point, trip and fell onto the woman just as the lorry brushed passed them. He looked over in the direction of lorry before he looked at woman below him.
Her green sparkling eyes met his and he actually felt he trip and fell head over heels. Her stunning face seem to glow as she smiled at him with her perfect full kissable lips that he really wanted to taste them right then and there. He heard her purring which led to her look a bit embarrassed and he a little startled bring him out of his little daydream.
"You alright?" She managed to say with a dazzling smile. Her voice sounded like warm honey as she spoke, trapping him there from the sound.
"Me?" he said as he slowly got up "What about you? You nearly got hit by a lorry not mention I kinda landed on you" Angelus said as he helped her up.
"But you saved me which I'm very happy about" the woman said "Plus I don't mind having you landing on me anytime" her eyes widened at how it sounded "Cause you would be saving me from a speeding lorries" she added quickly.
Angelus couldn't help but be amused, she was some kind of golden goddess and yet she couldn't seem to grasp it with her attitude. Too bad she's probably off the market.
"Thank you" the woman said with an air of coyness.
"No problem" Angelus grinned.
"I'll see you around" the woman smiled back and turn to leave.
"Would you like to get some coffee?" Angelus asked, really not liking to leave this enchanting creature.
With that she turned around and smiled.
Angelus bought the woman and himself some fresh coffee and sat down to drink it in the coffee shop. There was a small point of un-comfortable silence befor the woman open to speak.
"I'm Elizabeth Giles by the way, but everyone calls me Buffy" Buffy said as she gave out a her hand to shake.
"I'm Liam Angelus" Angelus said taking her hand to shake
"Angelus?" Buffy looked at him curiously.
"It means Angel in Latin" Angelus said "I think"
"And it suits you, after all you saved me" Buffy said, really looking at him now as if he suddenly had new features to himself "My guardian Angel, mind if I call you that?"
"Nah, just don't go spreading it around" Angelus said "I do have my pride"
"Okay" she said with mischief gleaming in her eyes "Angel"
"So were you from?" Angelus asked.
"Here" she said immediately "You?"
"Galloway" Angelus said then added at her curious look "Ireland, I moved here a couple of years ago"
"What's it like in Ireland?" Buffy asked.
"It's very green" Angel smiled then took a sip of his coffee "and nice and cool"
"What you think America is too hot for you?" Buffy asked, intrigued by him.
"Not really but there are times when I want to go back and visit my Mum and Dad and of course Kathy"
"Kathy?" she said looking a bit upset.
"She's not my girlfriend" Angel said, knowing what she was thinking "She's my sister"
"Oh, cause I thought...are you single by chance?" Buffy asked, looking at him below her eyelashes seductively.
"No, you?"
"Oh very much single"
And I very much like to hear that Angel thought as he smiled "Do you have any brothers or sisters of your own?"
"I was adopted with two of my friends" Buffy said as she stirred her coffee with her spoon "But we consider ourselves as sisters especially with my parents daughter, Willow"
"Do remember your real parents?" Angel said, assuming she was very young when she was adopted.
"Yeah, and they weren't very nice" Buffy said looking away from him in shame, biting her bottom lip like it was really bad.
"Hey, it's okay. You don't have to hide from me" Angel said as he lift her chin to look at him "We can't chose our family but we can chose our friends, which I very much like to be with you and maybe more" Angel smile reassuringly.
"Really" the woman said as she tilted her head to one side in delight.
"Yeah" Angelus said "Besides I'd very much like to carry on with this"
"Alright then, meet me here tomorrow at eight pm" the woman said with an enchanting smile as raised her coffee for a toast.
"It's a date" Angel tapped his coffee lightly against hers, really wishing she'd said today instead.
