Disclaimer: Not mine yada yada. Not making any money from it. Don't sue. Please.
Author's note: This was meant to be a Wesley-centric fic but turns up he doesn't even show for the first chapter. For the sake of this fic: 1)Angel didn't sign away his Shanshu (I wrote this before I knew he did that!), 2)Lorne stays.
Feedback: There are only two things I write for: the pleasure, and feedback. So gimme gimme gimme! Receiving feedback gives me pleasure. It's a pleasure to receive feedback.
This is my first so… be nice?
Prologue
Five years have past since the longest day of their lives. They won the war, but just barely. After years of rebuilding, L.A. – which the destruction of people noncommittally put down as being caused by an earthquake – was once again what it used to be, if not even better. With the Wolfram & Hart building burnt to the ground, the Angel team has moved back into the Hyperion, fighting, once again, the good fight, and helping the helpless.
But alas, even with the prevention of "The" Apocalypse, as long as good still stands, evil will always thrive.
A new threat has arrived in L.A. in the form of a great evil – Xhansoa. Devoted followers have sought to re-awaken it from its deep slumber and unleash it upon the unsuspecting world. But as the prophecy goes – translated helpfully by Giles – the true warrior who can save earth is not even of this world. So this is where the journey begins; the Angel team, along with the Scooby gang – Giles, Xander and Buffy – meet up at the Hyperion to bring into this world earth's only salvation.
