Thank you for waiting, I had gotten really bored of this story, but then i dicided to give it a little more time. I hope you enjoy this chapter.


The first thing they did after that conversation was that William went to his house and grabbed all the money that he could so that they could get some stuff that they needed. Then they had met up at the train station and got on the first train they could catch. Now they were at the very back of the train where no one could hear them, talking about what they needed to do.

"I have an old childhood friend in Oxford. I'm sure he'll let us stay there for a bit." William said.

"What if he rats us out?" Buffy asked.

"He wont." William assured. Buffy looked out the window. Getting herself dizzy staring at all the trees and homes that the train was whooshing past.

God, I wish that Mrs. Giles hadn't stole her. I could have been married to her. Not Drusilla. How I long to hold her, to run my hands through her hair, to have her, to - .

William could have gone on forever, but he had to stop for now because he was getting uncomfortable. William then noticed that she was asleep. She looked so small when she slept. She didn't look as intimidating as she normally did. But then she woke up. What made her wake up also made Spike stand up. Someone had screamed and then there was a loud thump on the wall behind Buffy from the room next to them.

"Stay here." He said. He slowly opened the door, and his eyes went wide.

"What is it?" Buffy asked scared. She had seen his eyes widen. William stepped foreword into the room, and shut the door behind him. Buffy got up and tried to open the door. It was locked,

"William." She jumped back as something hard hit the door on the other side of it. Then William reentered the room.

"Your bleeding." Buffy said. She reached for him, but he pushed her away.

"The train is under attack, grab your stuff and let's go." Said William. Buffy did. Spike led her to the back door of the train and kicked the door open, "When you jump, hold your stuff out in front of you as a cushion…. Jump." Just as they did this, the door leading to the other room opened.

When Buffy jumped she closed her eyes, knowing that she was just about to hit the ground. And when she did, she hit her head on the railing. All she remembered was William picking her up, and looking very concerned.

William picked her up carefully and walked to a small group of trees. He laid her down in the shade and ripped his sleeve. He licked it and wiped the blood off her face so he could see how big the cut was. He knew it was big because she was now unconscious. When she was pretty much cleaned up he realized that she had split her skin in the side of her head from her ear to her eyebrow. He didn't know what to do, so he sat down and waited.

But William has no patience, and he fell asleep.

Little did they know that one of the robbers had followed them out. He has his eye on Buffy. He had jumped out of the train about a minute later. He waited until the opportune moment, when William fell asleep.

He snuck over to the sleeping beauty and Picked her up careful. He didn't want to damage her. He took one last look at the foolish William and ran off.


Buffy woke up with a migraine. My bad, I meant the mother of all migraines. And then she smelt Apples. She opened her eyes and looked around the room. It was a wood cabin, from what how the inside walls looked. She was on a bed with a blue quilt. On the opposite wall There was a fireplace full of wood and fire. She looked farther around the room and screamed.

There were animals all around the room staring at her. A bear, a deer, a moose, A wolf, and a bear cub.

Buffy crawled underneath the covers and went into the fetal position. She heard hard footsteps, and gasped. The animals are coming to kill me.

The cover was lifted off of her and she looked up at the…. Man. And he was cute. He smiled and walked over to the head of the moose and lifted it of the wall, then replacing it back a second later.

"There fake." He said.

"Oh." Buffy whispered relieved. He walked over to the fireplace and grabbed a mug. He handed it to Buffy. She smelling it and realized that it was a steaming cup of cider. She then felt really thirsty and she drank it all quickly. He grabbed the cup from her when she was done and set it back onto the fireplace. He sat on the bed next to her and stuck out his hand.

"I'm Angel." He smiled.

"… Elizabeth." Buffy said, she didn't know if she could trust him.

"How's your head?" He asked. Buffy lifted her hand up to her head and felt the cut.

"Fine, I guess." She said.

"It looked pretty bad when it was bloody, and then I cleaned it. Then it didn't look so bad anymore." Angel said. Buffy looked around the room, her eyes stopped on the stuffed animals.

"Where am I?" She asked.

"In my house." He said, "I was out walking by the woods, and I saw a man carrying you. He had a mask on, so I thought him to have been a robber. And you had the cut, and I suspected that he had kidnapped you."

"What did this man look like?"

"I didn't see him well, but he had brown hair, and he was tall." He said.

Buffy started to think, that's definitely not Spike.

"I need to find someone." She said. Angel looked at her confused, "I was with a man, and then, I guess the robber took me, but I need to find the man. His name is William."

"I will." Angel smiled.


William awoke to realize that Buffy was gone. Upon realizing this he started to freak out, major. He was pulling hair, about to cry, and was jumping.

"Buffy?" He asked, he ran behind trees and looked under bushes, but he didn't see her.

What if a bear got her? Or what if she woke up, and got scared in the dark and looked around for me, but she couldn't see me so she got lost in the woods? Did I misplace her?

After searching for hours he sat down at the trunk of a tree.

"I couldn't have lost her. I have already lost her once, not again."
