PAST

After school and about 5:00 after cheerleading practice Cordelia headed to the library. When she saw Giles cleaning she decided to ask him about the demon.

Cordelia "Giles."

"Ahhh." He screamed. Giles "Must you sneak up on me."

Cordelia "Sorry but do you have a book called Demonic transferance and demons."

Giles was a little surprised "Yes I do. Why do you ask?"

Cordelia now had to come up with a good lie. "Well I saw a picture in the book that was really cool and I thought I could use it for a history project." Nice lie. Go Cordy, Go Cordy.

Giles "Well here you go." Giles said and handed her the book, apparently buying the lie.

Cordelia sat down at the table and flipped to the demon. A Skylar demon, apparently has a time transference with it's parents. But that's all it said. "Damn it, Stupid book."

Giles "What did you say."

Cordelia "Nothing."

Giles went into his office to get a phone call while the library doors swung open. Willow, Xander, and Buffy strolled in but all stopped in there tracks when they saw Cordelia sitting at the table.

Buffy put on a fake smile on her large squared face. "Cordelia what are you doing here."

Cordelia "I had to check on something, but I'm done. I'll be going."

Giles came back out of the office and went straight to buisness. That was the council and apparently there's a new demon in town."

Xander "Shocking. So research."

Present

Angels and the others were researching furiosly.

Fred "I found a spell that would bring us to where Cordelia is." Angel ran towards her "How?' He asked. "Oh well we need something of hers and to go to back to the place where she disappeared. It will bring us to the portal and to the place where she reappeared."

"Great let's go." He said and the fang gang rushed out.

When they got to the alley Angel paced impatiently. "C'mon Wes lets' do the spell and find Cordelia." Please be okay.

Wes "Angel this will simply bring us to where she landed, she probably isn't there anymore but maybe she will be close by."

Angel "fine do the spell."

Wes "Ala, mor, kora amara lulpus."

With a bright flash they were gone. The fang gang minus Cordellia landed in a basement with chains on the wall.

Wes "Ok, does this place look familiar, to anyone."

Angel "Yea it looks like this place back in Sunnydale, it was a scraficing dungeon under a frat house, but why would cordelia appear here."

Angel then remembered the battle scene, there was a snake that looked like the ones that they killed yesterday.

Angel "I think we traveled back in time, five years to Sunnydale."

Wes " That would make sense, the snake demon must have sent some energy to tansport Cordelia back to when it's relative, guessing mother was killed. I think, under the circumstances, unlike us Cordelia is trapped in her seventeen year old body."

Angel "So she would be at her house." He said and was happy that he was going to see Cordelia again and ran up the stairs to rush outside and find her.

Wes "Angel wait."

Angel didn't listen and opened the front door. But he had to jump back when the sun light burned him. "Dammnit, this place has no sewer access."

Wes "What I was going to say about the sunlight. Okay plan is that me and Gunn will go to Cordelia's house and wait there. Fred you go to the school and pose as a student. She might go to the library so go there. Angel stay here until sunset then meet Fred at the library. Try not to be seen, even though we can't change the past it would be a lot of explaining to do."

Fred "Well let's go, I want to find Cordy."

Angel "Be careful, make sure nothing happens to her."

Gunn "You know we wouldn't let anybody hurt barbie. See ya."

With that the three non vampires went out in search for the heart of there family. Angel "They better find her. Please be okay Cordelia."

Cordelia had fought tons of demons, faced vamps and even survived killer visions. She has even sat through Angel's singing but this torture.

"So the Neolithic period was at it's height in the…." Cordelia tried to ignore the annoying rambling of the abnoxious teacher. I mean she has already graduated.

Fred stood in front of the large high school. This is the high school that Cordy, Wesely and Angel spent so much of there time in, this is where the fang gang got started With that thought in mind Fred entered the school.

Fred was a little excited she got to do under cover work. Cordelia was so good at it, she hoped she could be as good or at least convincing. I can't wait to see Cordelia. Cordelia was like a big sister she never had. She and Cordelia had grown very close, they told each other everything. Fred knew a lot about Cordy's high school years and Cordelia knew a lot about Fred. Angel told her a little about the scooby gang and she would have to try real hard not to kill Xander for hurting Cordelia. That's going to be hard, I hate that bastard. Fred thought.

Fred saw a middle age man with glasses looking through the shelves when she entered the library. This must be Giles, the librarian/watcher. Cordelia was like he is kind a like Wesely. Giles looked a little surprised to see the brunette women but acted polite. "Hello, may I help you."

"Yes, hi my name is Peggy Taco, I'm a new student here and my teacher told me to read the physic book in the library and try to get caught up so I could take the test tomorrow after school." Fred said and couldn't help but smile at her explanation. She did good.

"Oh, yes the physics section is in the back, feel free to use any table."

"Thanks." Fred said and went to get a book from the back. Fred grabbed a random physics book and sat down at the front table pretended to read. She looked up at the clock and there was about ten minutes till school was over. She just hoped Wesely was right and Cordelia would come to the library, even if she didn't and went straight home Wesely and Gunn would find her but she did want Cordelia to see her undercover.

Gunn and Wesely finally got to Cordelia's house. It was huge and looked very well gaurded.

Gunn "So how are we supposed to get in."

Wesely "Well I have no clue so we could either meet Fred at the library or wait here."

Gunn "So walk for another forty miles or just sit around."

Wesely "Yes."

Gunn "Well I say we should wait it out."

Wesely "Agreed."

They both sat down on the grass and waited for Cordelia to come home and hoped Fred found her.

Fred was a little startled when the bell rang. She heard kids shuggling around outside and saw three of those teenagers come into the library. There was a blonde girl, a red head and then a black haired boy.

It finally clicked in Fred's brain who these people were. They must be the founding members of the scooby gang. Buffy, Willow, and that jerk Xander. Fred had to hold back from going up to him and hitting him. Fred was not a viloent person but Cordelia brings out the protecteviness in everyone. Ecspecsially Angel. Fred thought.

Buffy, Xander and Willow walked into the library but they were a little surprised to see someone unfamiliar sitting at a table. Giles came out of his office (Office or closet, Just kidding.) and decided to introduce the young women, She looks so fragile and they wouldn't want to scare her.

Giles "Xander, Willow, Buffy I would like you to meet a new student, her name is Peggy Taco."

"Hi" The three said in unison.

"Hello." 'Peggy' said then went back to her book.

This girl looks a little nerdy, I mean even to us. She seems, shy, poor girl is gonna get eaten alive, well not literally. Buffy chuckles at her joke in her head. I bet Queen C is going to make her life a living hell. Buffy again chuckled at her joke. I am on fire, with the funnies. Buffy thought, (well I know that thinking that's a little bit of a stretch for Buffy but hey anything can happen in Fan Fiction.)

When the doors to the library opened Buffy felt really bad for the girl. Cordelia Chase walked through the doors and walked up to them in full stride. When Cordelia finally saw the girl she screamed "Oh, my god."

Here comes the insults, doesn't Cordelia have a heart. Buffy thought but what came next was a complete shock to the Scooby Gang.

Cordelia "Fred"

The young Texan jumped out of her chair and ran up to Cordelia enveloping her in a huge hug. Cordelia hugged back feeling the first sign of relief. Fred pulled back a little to start her ramble "Cordy, we were so scared, and lost and ." Cordelia interuppeted her "It's okay, so how'd you get here." Cordelia said and hinted that they weren't alone and had an audience. Fred obvisouly caught on and answered more carefully "We figured out where you were, me and the gang decided to visit, I'm a new student here, I enrolled. They practally laughed when I said my name was Peggy Taco." Fred said thing it would be smart to inform Cordelia of her name. Cordy had a hard time not laughing at that name.

Buffy, Xander and Willow all were shocked. Cordelia and Peggy knew each other and it seemed really well. Wait did Cordelia say Fred. Willow thought and decided to ask. "Cordelia why do you call her Fred?"

Cordelia "oh, it's a nickname for her."

Fred "Hey Cordy, let me put the book back and then we can go see Wes, Gunn and the others." Cordelia getting the hint nodded and folowed Fred up to the bookcase where they could be alone.

Fred "We missed you so much, Angel was going crazy, Wesely and Gunn are at your house and Angel is at that frat house because they had no sewer access, so how are you." Fred said finally stopping.

Cordelia "I don't like being in the past but I was having fun making past Angel squirm. He can't lie it's so much fun."

Fred "What do you mean?"

Cordelia "Oh, I'm not supposed to know he's a vampire so I pull his leg making him think I know then I say that him being a vampire is crazy. By the way Peggy Taco."

Fred "Yah I know it's a stupid name."

Cordelia "No, it's a good name, I'm so proud of you, you look great undercover."

Fred "Thanks Cordy."

Cordelia and Fred walked back down the stairs to find past Angel now at the table. Cordelia winked at Fred trying to get her to play along.

Cordelia "Hey Angel, have you met my friend Peggy Taco."

Angel "No, hi I'm Angel, it's nice to meet you.:

Fred "wow, you look like this guy I once knew, he was real pale, cold skin, he didn't like the sun and had a weird liquid diet."

Cordelia "Fred I think he was a vampire."

Fred "A what?"

Buffy, Xander, Giles and Willow tried to do hand signals to get her to stop talking.

Cordelia "You know a blood sucker, creature of the night."

Fred "Oh gross, so Angels a vampire."

Angel froze trying to think of an excuse to deny it.

Cordelia "No, Angel is just a normal human guy, he has some skin problem. Yea good one Fred, Angel is a big evil blood sucker." Fred and Cordelia laughed but not at what everyone else though. They couldn't help but laugh at Angels' face when they said that.

Fred and Cordelia started walking toward the library doors but stopped when they flew open and an identical Angel came through and held Cordelia in fierce hug. "Thank god your alright, I was worried, don't ever scare me like that again." Everyone was shocked.
