Isobel, California 1968
Isobel, "Izzie" walked down the pathway of a park in Los Angeles enjoying the night air. She wrapped her shall more tightly around her shoulders, a slight breeze went by and she was happy for the shall.
The dreams had to stop, she knew it, she wanted it but she knew they weren't going to. So she decided to take long walks before going to bed and if she had a dream she would walk after that too. She figured if she were tired she wouldn't dream a lot. That wasn't the case. It seemed as if the dreams had a mind of their own and they would come whenever they wanted to. It was annoying.
The dreams were always of girls, and a man. A handsome man who was as charming as anything and she knew that he was her downfall. She was smarter then she looked and she knew like the other girls had in the back of their minds knew. So with that in mind she wished she never saw him, she knew that wasn't true either. Especially when she heard a noise behind her.
She turned around and saw the very opposite of what she had seen in her dreams. His handsome features were hidden by what looked like age and worry. But she knew that wasn't possible for what he was.
"It's not nice to sneak up on people." She said with a smirk.
"I'm sorry." He said lightly.
She shook her head. "Don't worry about it." She motioned over to a park bench.
"Do you know who I am?" He asked her.
Izzie nodded. "Yes."
"Do you have the dreams too?" Izzie asked him.
"Yes." He said.
She took a deep breath and stared off at the trees.
"I'm Sorry." He told her.
She cocked her head. "Sorry for what?"
"For what I did." He whispered.
She turned to him. "That was in the past, past me…past you." She told him knowing that the words were true but having no idea where they came from.
"Thank you…" He said softly and she smiled at him.
She inched her hand over to his and they grasped hands but as soon as they did both gasped.
Izzie shut her eyes as a million images came toward them. Along with feelings she knew weren't her own. The first were of a lovely woman and a handsome man. She knew that it was Lili and he, the man next to her. Then as quickly as those had come, they were gone and a new one of a girl terrified appeared. After that many images appeared, mostly of him. And then there was a picture of her. She couldn't believe it, why was she involved in this? And then it came to her; she was another in a line. After that it showed him moving to New York and living in the alleys.
Then another image came, a man came up to Liam. After that it showed an image of a school and a girl, who looked like Izzie and all the girls before her, sitting on the steps. It also showed a car with him, Liam, inside it. A man went up to the girl and spoke to her. Then the imaged changed to the same girl staking what appeared to be a vampire. The next image showed her coming home and fighting with her parents Liam watched it all.
After that there was blackness but then showed the same girl walking down an alleyway and meeting him for the first time. There was such emotion in that moment that she sucked her breath to keep from squealing and yelling all at the same time. Another image showed the girl running through him with a large sword. She screamed and next to her Liam gasped. Tears ran down her cheeks and she couldn't understand what had happened. Images rushed by her after that and even though they were going so fast she caught every one of them. All of them were of the girl and Liam together. She felt more love for him than she had ever felt for anything in her life. She felt it with her very being. The word soulmates came to mind.
Izzie opened her eyes and turned to look at Liam. He looked shocked, and scared and in his eyes she saw the same thing she felt, love.
He got up. "We can't, I'm sorry."
"Wh-What?" Izzie said, confused.
He shook his head. "I love you, Buffy." He kissed her on the forehead.
"I'll see you soon." He said and walked away, leaving her speechless. She smiled, knowing that she'd him again, someday.
