At night I feel like a vampire

It's not right; I just can't give it up.

I'll try to get myself higher

Let's go, we're going to light it out.

Tonight we start the fire,

Tonight we break away.

Buffy yawned and awoke as she looked around. She was certainly not in her bed, and she was certainly not at home. She looked around noticing she was outside and lying on a field of green grass. She looked down at herself also noticing her clothing was not her type of clothes. She had on a pink dress that had lace at the top. The two straps hanged off her shoulders as a bit of cleavage showed. And it had a long slit starting from the thigh down. She sat up and looked around once more wandering where she was. She looked to her right as she noticed she was in the backyard of a beautiful brick castle. It was made of red brick that curved around. It was a sight to see.

She took another step to get a closer look when she suddenly tripped over someone. Before she could fall on her face a pair of strong hands grabbed a hold of arms holding her up. She looked down surprised at the person below her. "Angel."

"Hello love." Angel smiled and pulled her down to kiss her cheek. He then leaned back to take a good look at her. Her beautiful face and most of all the dressed she had on curved her body in all the right areas. He glanced down as he suddenly became hard staring at her. She looked different, older somehow. Her face was the same but her hair was longer now, and she was more built. He could tell by her broad shoulders and those lovely breasts of hers. "God you're beautiful."

She stared at him and surprised that she can actually touch him. More than so he looked marvelous. He had on a pair of black pants and a white shirt that was unbuttoned at the top revealing his tone chest. Her hand feels his hard chest as she wraps her arms around his neck. "Angel where are we? Is this another dream or"…?

Angel smiled and kissed her again. "I think you're asleep. I think the rings that Giles gave back to us are linking are souls together."

"Really it's not just another dream." She asked curiously as she stared at Angel not able to move her eyes away from him.

"Your body is still home sleeping but your soul is still here." He replied.

"Oh." She smiled and her eyes lit up as she remembers the last time she had a dream with him. It was full of lust, bodies pressed together and….

Angel smiled and looked back at her as her face started to flush and her mind was elsewhere, but he had a pretty good idea where. He slowly walked behind her and pressed his pelvis against her as she moaned against him. "…..you don't have to day dream, we can make it real?" He whispered.

Buffy gasped and looked to her side to see Angel nibbling on her neck. "Oh god….Sorry my mind went….. Somewhere else, and you're not helping." She giggled.

Angel smirked as he wrapped one arm around her waist and one on the other side fondling her breast. She flung her head back and pressed her back against his chest. "Angel…..we really should find somewhere more private." She replied looking around wondering if anyone else was outside near them. They were practically outside in the back yard groping.

Angel smirked again and groaned his hips to her body. "Were the only one's here lover, but I think it would be better if we found something softer"….

"Softer?"

His mind then went to wonder at all the places he wanted to fuck her at. "Ya like on the bed or….the couch…..or the desk." He whispered in her ear.

She gasped again as he pressed his rock hard erection towards her. She moaned and then looked to her side. "Oh my….What has gotten in you?" She replied giggling.

"You don't know how tough it is to see you every day in the real world and not to touch you." He replied placing a gentle kiss on her neck. He then moved the right strap of her dress down exposing her breast. he held it in his hand and smiled at the warm flesh in his hand.

"Ah…." She gasped and decided to tease him a little more. She quickly moved away from him and pulled her dress back up. Buffy twilled around and took a few steps back grinning at him. "If you want me…you have to catch me." She replied making a run for the Castle."

Angel stood there in surprise as he ran after her. By the time he got to the door, she was already inside hiding. Damn she was going to make him work for it now. He sighed as his erection was pressing against his pants to tightly. Damn pants he thought. Why couldn't they have normal clothes?

He walked in and glanced around the place. He then noticed a slight giggle as he followed the sound. It was coming from the far bedroom. He quietly made his way over and peeked in the doorway. She was bending over looking threw a truck full of clothes. He smirked and admired the nice round tush that was facing him.

Buffy stood back up and tossed the ugly green dress on the bed. She was trying to find something decent to dress into. However, everything she picked up was something from the 18th century. The castle was probably even older than that. Nevertheless, it was a beautiful place to life at if you wanted to life in a fantasy life because that's what this was. The only fact was she wasn't sure if this was her naughty fantasy or his.

She was lost in her concentration when a pair of familiar hands grabbed her waist and pulled her back to a strong muscular chest. She let out a gasp as his erection pressed against her buttocks. She then felt a chill go down her spine as his tongue licked the back of her ear. "Did anyone tell you it's not safe to roam around with strangers?" He joked.

"Angel……mmmm" she smirked and pushed her hips back. He groaned and pushed back. Angel quickly turned her around and pulled her forward. He then gently kissed her until it became demanding and hard. Buffy stepped back releasing her mouth from his as the passion was building up in her. She stared at him out of breath and for the first time she could see him gasping for breath too.

"Maybe we should do this slower." Buffy replied. Angel smiled and took her hand as they lay down on the bed. Buffy was stretched out beside him, and it took all his nerves to stay put and not to take her right then. "Did I ever tell you how beautiful you are?"

"Many times." Buffy smiled and pulled him forward. She then carefully undid the button on his shirt. She tossed it to the side smoothing her hand on his chest. Angel smiled and pulled her forward wrapping her leg around his waist until he felt like he was in a cocoon of sweet felinity, Gosh she was slowly killing him like this. He swallowed and quickly undid the belt on his pants. He quickly tossed the odd looking things out of the way and lay on top of Buffy. He barely had time to kiss her when she started grinding her body against him, making him dizzy with lust. She then pushed him back as she straddled him to the bed.

They kissed again as his right hand moved to the back of her dress. He undid the clasps on the back of her dress as the straps slid down her shoulder and past her chest. He kissed her neck noticing the tattoo on her back. He suddenly had a flash back of the night Angelus claimed her and marked her with his tattoo. He cursed at the fact he hurt her. it made all the painful memories come back to him. He leaned up and stared at Buffy noticing she was staring at him with concern.

"What's wrong Angel?" Buffy asked noticing he was about to brood again.

"Your back…..the tattoo it covers your whole right shoulder blade. I'm sorry…..that"

"No." Angel it wasn't you. Don't apologize for something you never did." She replied.

Angel sighed and stared at her as she pulled his head forward and kissed his mouth. " Angel please….I need you." Buffy said.

Angel stared at her than her neck and her amazing body that lay below him. "So beautiful." He replied placing a kiss on the top of her breast. Then he moved lower as he began sucking her hardened nipples.

Buffy moaned, grabbing his head in her soft hands and caressing his head. He kissed his way down her body pushing the dress down until it slid to the floor. He licked her tummy and down his way to her panties. She tossed the panties down her legs and her lips opened sensually and seemed to be calling to him. "Angel….please."

Angel quickly rolled over making sure he didn't' squash her as he lay above her. He leaned closer and whispered in her ear. "What do you want me to do?"

Buffy stared at him as he gently nibbled on her lip. "I want you…..need you in me." Buffy begged.

Angel pulled his shorts off as his heart skipped a beat as Buffy wrapped her legs around his waist. He took that moment to push into her hot heat. Her walls tighten and he had to take a breath from the heat filling him. It seemed to echo out towards him as he pushed deeper in her. He was pushing harder and she was meeting him with each thrust. However, the only difference was she was not the slayer, and he was not a vampire in this reality. They were normal and fully human. Knowing this and feeling this way he knew he rather have this then the way it was. This was the best thing that ever happened to him.

Buffy was trembling as she was gasping for breath every time he pushed forward. She was begging for more, pleading with him not to stop. This was the second time he had made love to her. The first time was nothing like this. She wasn't saying like it was bad but there was something different about this time. Maybe it was the thrill of a new reality or the chance. She just knew she had to do this again. "Is this, your dream or my?" she asked breathlessly.

Angel smiled and watched her as he gently placed her legs on his shoulders and gripped her hips tightly. "I'll let you guess." He replied gently thrusting his tongue in her mouth. He then started stroking her hard, hips pounding against each other while their bodies was thrust against each other like they were one. He pushed in again filling her completely until she was screaming his name. He hit every spot and every angle as the pleasure filled them both.

Buffy gasped against him and braced her thigh harder against his waist as her own pleasure was overtaking her. He gave her one last push as they both screamed their names to the heavens. She could feel him explode inside of her leaving her body sated as he held her tightly to his body.

Angel pulled out and took deep breath as he pulled the blanket over them and cuddled her body close to his. He gave her a kiss on the cheek as she was already asleep in his arms. He sighed and knew at that very moment things would be all right eventually. He was just glad he had this very moment with her, even if it was the last. He would surely cherish it for a life time.


Buffy gasped awake as her mind fluttered to the dream she just had. She was sitting up still panting for air by the most amazing experience she ever had. She then quickly leaned over and hit the alarm button cursing slightly for waking her up. She began thinking of what happen in her dream when she noticed Angel was beside her and staring at her with intensely. "That was…. amazing." Buffy replied staring at him.

"I would say perfect." He said leaning over and gently brushing his lips against her neck. "Buffy smiled feeling the cold touch on her neck as she leaned back and stared at him noticing he wasn't even sweating. Maybe it was because he was a ghost. She then looked down at herself noticing she was still dressed. However, her face was flushed and her body was glistering with sweat. "Ok I really need a major…..major shower."

Angel smiled and stared at her. "You know you…still look ravishing."

"Buffy blushed and then noticing his eyes were roaming her body. "Ok buster if you start doing that again I'm never going to make it on time to school." She replied quickly getting up and heading for the bathroom.

"Is there a reason you have to go in a rush? We could just dream….and sleep again." he snickered.

"Buffy turned around and smiled. " As much I would like that I unfortunately have to meet the gang at the library after class. We are trying to figure out how the new slayer got here."

"Oh you mean Faith?" Angel asked.

"Ya that should be interesting." She replied. "Well I had better taken that shower and get ready for school."

"Too bad I can't take a shower with you." Angel said wishing he could. When he was in the dream everything was real. The sweat, the touch and every memory from that dream was still in his mind.

"Ya lucky you….You didn't wake up sweaty and sticky."

Angel laughed. "That doesn't sound bad to me."

Buffy smiled and open the bathroom door. "Maybe to you, I don't want my friend's to think I don't take a shower." She snickered

Angel watched her leave wondering if he should just stay here to indulge in his own fantasy. He sighed knowing he had to go with Buffy to see about this new slayer. He didn't trust anyone new in town, especially when they already heard about Buffy. He knew it was wrong to speculate, even if he never met her before but there was just something fishy about the whole deal. Maybe it was just his imagination.


Buffy is sitting in the library with her friends. Giles, Willow and Xander were all around the table listen to what Faith had to say. Mostly, Xander was intrigued about her story.

"And all of a sudden, I hear this screaming from outside. So I go tearing out, stark nude, and this church bus has broken down, and there're these three vamps feasting on half the Baptists in South Boston. So I waste the vamps, and the preacher comes up, and he's hugging me like there's no tomorrow, when all of a sudden, the cops pull up, and they arrested us both."

She reaches for a muffin. Xander stares blankly ahead of himself, trying to picture the scene and trying not to get hard from the images floating threw his head. However, it was of him and a more demanding and naughty Willow.

"Wow. They should film that story and show it every Christmas." Xander joked. Willow glared at him and rolled her eyes.

"God, I could eat a horse. Isn't it crazy how slayin' just always makes you hungry and horny?" Faith says. The others all turn their heads to look at Buffy. She stares back wide-eyed and suddenly gets uncomfortable.

"Well... Sometimes I-I crave a nonfat yogurt afterwards." Buffy replied blushing. She then stares at Angel, who starts Laughing. She glances at him annoyed. It's not funny she whispered.

Giles coughs and blushes as he quickly tries to change the subject. "Um could you please tell us again of where your watcher is and why you were sent?"

"Well My Watcher went off to some retreat thing in England, and so I skipped out. I figured this was my chance to meet the infamous Buff and compare notes." Faith smiled holding in the anger that she held for what happened to her watcher. No one knew what really happen, and she didn't plan on telling anyone the truth until she got her revenge. That was why she came to Sunnydale in the first place. Because she knew the vamps that had killed her watcher was here, and she planned on torturing them once she got her hands on them. "So, B, did you really use a rocket launcher one time?" Faith asked.

"Ah ya……it was a funny story." Buffy replied trying not to get annoyed.

"So are you planning on staying here?" Giles asked kind of thrilled that there was another slayer here to help Buffy.

"Um ya…I think I'll stay for awhile" Faith replied knowing she'll stay for as long as it takes until she gets a hold of those murders. 'It'll give me plenty of demon asses to kick in his town. I'm up for it."

"Wow sounds like fun…we could be the four avengers or slayers." Xander replied joking noticing their stare. "What? I was trying to think of a cool name for us."

"Ah…. You two could start patrolling while I do some research." Giles replied noticing Xander's excited look." I mean Buffy and faith." Giles replied.

"Buffy stared at Giles then at Xander. "You know it's safer for you guys to stay in…..right?"

"I think it would be great Buffy…you know to have some help for once." Xander said. "Besides we will stay out of your way, right Willow."

Willow crossed her arms. "Sure, just be careful."

Faith smiled. "Oh no reason to worry since she's got me." Faith smirked as Buffy sighed and stared back at Faith, who was twilling her stake. She was wondering if this was a good ideal or not to take her friends too. However, she knew arguing with them would only have her with a bigger headache later. "Ah whatever."


Cut to an alley at night. There is construction equipment lying around. Buffy and Faith come strolling along as they made their way to the cemetery to look for vampires. Xander and Willow are behind them not really paying attention to much, for some reason. For some reason, Xander was getting very lusty at Willow. She rolled her eyes hoping this wasn't going to be another day of doing forbidden things out in the public. She smirked and remembered the story that Xander told her of him and Willow getting busy in the library. It almost took a week for Willow to get over the fact that it happened. she was almost too embarrassed to go back to school until Xander convinced her of course. More than so she could still remember that was the same day Angelus marked her too.

Faith looked over and noticed Buffy was looking at something. "Ah did you see something B?"

"Buffy quickly looks away from Angel and stared back at Faith. "Ah no….I just thought I have seen something."

Faith shrugs. "Mm. You've been doing that a lot lately."

Buffy looks at Faith. "What's that supposed to mean?"

Faith snickers "Nothing."

Buffy stops and steps in front of her. "You got a problem?"

Angel rolls his eyes and sighs wondering why Buffy had to get agitated so much. He could understand that she felt like this new slayer was taken everything and her role but that didn't mean she had to be agitated by it.

"Come on B. there is no reason to be hastily. I'm just living entirely large and actually wondering about your problem." Faith said.

"Actually I don't have a problem. Well, I may not sleep in the nude and rassle alligators...and.."

"Maybe it's time you started, 'cause obviously *something* in your bottle needs uncorking. What is it, then, the Angel thing?" Faith smirked wondering what this Angel guy looked like because if it's anything Xander told her then too bad she wasn't here earlier.

Buffy's face beats red. Angel notices and stands beside her to make sure they didn't try to kill each other. "What do you know about Angel?" Buffy spoke crossing her arms.

"Just what your friends tell me. Big love, big loss. hot guy. You ought to deal and move on, but you're not."

Buffy takes a step closer cursing Xander knowing he was the one that told her. Angel looks at her with arms crossed. Buffy glares at him then back at Faith. "I got an idea: how about from this day forwards, we don't hear from you on Angel or anything else in my life. Which, by the way, is *my* life."

"What are you getting so strung out for, B? It was just a guy; there are plenty of others out there."

"Excuse me you have no right to say anything about Angel. He was not just a regular guy, he is the... love. She stops and stares at Angel, who tries to get her to calm down. "It's none of your Business, F. So why are your lips still moving?"

Faith glared angrily at Buffy. "Did I just hear a threat?"

"Do you want it to be a threat? "Buffy replied stopping her way to her.

Faith laughed. "Wow. Think you can take me?"

Buffy smirked and seen Faith's fist curled. "Yeah. I just hope they can't." Buffy quickly pushes her out of the way as a vampire jumps them.

Buffy punches the vamp in the gut, and he goes flying onto his back. A second one comes in and takes a swing at Buffy, but she ducks him making him fall to the ground.

Faith gets back up and grabs a nearby trash can and throws it towards the third vampire making him fall backwards. Faith quickly jumps forward and crams the trash can over his head repeatedly. The vampire growls and tosses her to the side. Then it jumps over and punches her two times in the face. Faith is unfazed by it as she hits him back making him fall to the ground. "My dead mother hits harder than that!"

Buffy quickly stakes the first vampire as Angel tries to take care of the second one, but he can't grab him. His hand passes right threw. "Damn it."

Buffy quickly kicks the second vampire back and tosses him to the ground. She grabs her stake about to lunge when the vampire grabs her jacket and throws her to the ground.

"Buffy." Angel runs over and tries to help her.

Buffy quickly gets up and kicks the vampire making him fly towards a wall. Buffy looks over to see Faith railing her fist on a vampire. "Faith! Stake him already and give me a hand!"

Before Buffy could react, she finds herself on the ground again. She sees a piece of work nearby as she tries to reach for it. Angel quickly kicks the stake to her as he tries to grab the vampire and toss him away.

Buffy reaches desperately for the piece of two-by-four in front of her. She grabs a hold of it as the vampire above her stares at her. "For Kakistos we live! For Kakistos you'll die!" he then lunges.

Buffy looks around and sees faith still ramming her fist to the vampire's face. She noticed Angel desperately trying to help her but can't. "FAITH!" Faith pays her no attention and just keeps punching her vampire to a pulp. Buffy quickly kicks the vampire off of her and gets to her feet and looks over at Faith. "Buffy sighs wondering if she was nuts or something. "Faith!"

Buffy quickly turns and jams the makeshift stake home. The vampire crumbles to ashes.

"Buffy are you ok?" Angel asked worried and even more than so because he felt useless for what just happen. Usually he can help her but something was happening, and he didn't know what. All he knew was he felt like he was slowly slipping away.

"I'm fine Angel." Buffy replied giving him a smile and then turns to Faith, who was still beaten the poor bloody vampire. "Ok let's see if we can calm down little miss tantrum."

"You can't touch me!" Faith replies as she starts to remember what Kakistos did to her poor watcher. "How do you like?" she keeps punching her fist to his bloody face until she feels a hand hold her hand back. Faith looks back to see Buffy throw the stake at the vampire heart. Faith looks down and he's dust.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" Buffy asked.

"What are you talking about?" Faith asked wiping her bloody hands on her pants.

Before Buffy could lecture her, she sees' Willow and Xander coming near her. Buffy looks at them and her mouth opens in an oh but closes it because by the lack of winkled clothes that someone was doing something naughty. "Where have you guys been?" Buffy asked smirking.

"Ah we got lost and took a wrong turn." Xander smirked while Willow's face was turning red.

"Ah huh." Buffy then looked at faith. "Now what was I saying. Oh that's right I almost got killed when you were living large on that vampire." Buffy replied.

"Gee, if doing violence to vampires upsets you, I think you're in the wrong line of work!" Faith says

"Wait what happen?" Xander asked suddenly confused by what they were talking about.

"I almost got bitten by vampire. She could have helped if she wasn't throwing a tantrum." Buffy scowled.

Faith turned towards her. "A what?"

Xander steps in-between the two wondering if that was a good ideal or not because they both looked like they wanted to kill each other. "Ah couldn't we deal with this like normal adults." He asked.

"Were not normal Xander." Buffy replied.

"Well….ah technically but I say talking is better than punching. Anyone with me." Xander raised his hand jokingly as so did Willow.

Buffy crossed her arms and stood her ground. "Our job is to slay demons! Not to beat them to a bloody pulp while their friends corner me."

Faith shrugs and stares back at her. ""It's not the way I do it B. besides. I thought you could handle yourself." She walks off with a slight smirk.

Buffy lets out an exasperated sigh and stares back at her friends. "Don't ask."


Cut to the school halls the next day. Buffy is sitting outside with Willow. They start disgusting what happen last night. "So Faith really flipped huh" Willow asked.

"Ya you could say that." Buffy replied. What were you and Xander really doing last night?" Buffy asked curiously.

"Ah we were…ah playing." Willow replied sheepishly.

"Playing?" Buffy smirked.

Willow blushed wanting to tell Buffy, but she didn't want to tell her if Angel was here. "Ah is Angel here." she whispered.

"Actually no... He's off investigating Faith. Which is a surprise because he never leaves me alone?"Buffy replied. "But I'm not saying it's a bad thing."

Willow smirked. "Well Xander kind of had this naughty ideal that we should try."

Buffy hid the smile and stared at her friend. "So what was this naughty idea?"

"Well Xander had this crazy idea that I dress as you while I try to save him. " Willow replied.

"Oh was that why you were dressed in a black jacket." Buffy asked amused.

Willow shook her head and then stared back at her friend wondering if she should ask her a personal question. "Have you ever felt like it's not enough, I mean Xander is my best friend in all, but sometimes he can get a little too excited?"

Buffy stared at her a little confused. "What do you mean?"

"Well I mean we just foreplay, we never you know?"

Buffy chuckled. "Wow, I thought that one time in the library that you did. You know when you guys were possessed."

"Ah no…..it's nothing to you know to get excited about."Except that they are crinkly and the skin looks funny, and the taste is bad, too."

Buffy opens her mouth but nothing comes out. "Willow!"

"What? We are friends and… we can talk about that kind of stuff….right?" Willow asked embarrassed.

Buffy chucked again noticing her best friends face was turning red. "I'm not laughing at your Will, I just never heard you say stuff like that before."

"Well we can blame it on Xander for his bad influenced."Willow smirked.

Buffy chucked again. "ya for his bad motivations huh."

Buffy looked up and asked Willow about the spell they used on the rings. She then told her about her and Angel. And the fact it connected their dreams somehow.

"Wow. That's cool. I mean I would love to have that. I could sneak into Xander's mind and see what's he's dreaming about." Willow replied wondering if she should do a spell like that for her and Xander.

Buffy stared at her and smiled.

"Well I don't know how it bound your dreams together but that's not a bad thing right?" Willow asked.

"Ya it's fine…..great actually."

Willow smiled as she suddenly seen Giles coming near her. Buffy looked and stared at Giles walking by. She waved and hoped that he had found anything on Faith that led her to believe that there was something major wrong with the girl.

Buffy stood up realizing Giles didn't want to sit on the grass. That was typical of her watcher.
"So did you find anything about Faith and kissing toast. Or her watcher?" she asked.

"You mean 'Kakistos'?" Giles said.

"Maybe it was taquitos. Maybe he lived for taquitos."

"What?"

"Kakistos." Giles repeats.

"Is that bad?" Buffy frowned.

'Kakistos' is Greek. It means the worst of the worst. It's also the name of a vampire so old that his hands and feet are cloven.

"I wonder how he puts on his shoes then." Willow joked.

Buffy smirked and stared back at Giles. "Now, this guy showed up two days ago, right? Right around the same time my best new little sister makes the scene. So there has to be a connection" Buffy asked.

"Sister." Willow asked.

"I'm being sarcastic." Buffy replied.

"Oh."

"W-what did her Watcher say?" Buffy asked.

"Her Watcher's dead."

Buffy stares back in disbelief. "Dead!" she repeats.

"Um yes, she was killed by vampires. The council is not saying much on the subject." Giles said.

"Willow stares at Buffy wondering what could have happened to led Faith's watchers dead. Even more so she had a bad feeling about the girl, since she came to town. Maybe it was her imagination."


That evening Faith is unloading the rest of her stuff from her bag when there is a knock at the door. "Oh great what now." she thought knowing it was probably the manager of the hotel.

She opens the door and steps back into the room aghast. The demon drops the manager's body and smiles at her. "Faith."

"Kakistos" Faith starts to panic, and before he could reach her, she runs making a dash for the window. She breaks through it and falls nearly two stories. She lands on a car setting the alarm off. "Shit." She quickly rolls off and makes a run to Buffy's house knowing she should be safe there.

Nearby Angel's watches from the side as the events happening. He makes a run for it as he finds Faith running towards Buffy's house. At that same moment, a car pulls up as two vampires jump out and run towards Faith.

Angel quickly opens the door and sees' Buffy stepping out.

"Angel where have you been. I was worried" she asked.

"I….Buffy we have to help Faith, she's being attacked." He grabs her hand and leads her a block away from her house to where they have seen Faith lying on the ground knocked out. A familiar demon is hovering over her. Angel hisses remembering the ugly bastard he knew from long ago. His demon Angelus knew him from when they use to be acquaintances until he tried to assassinate him one time. Since then Angelus hasn't seen him for centuries. However, he knew the demon's repetitions of killing and torturing young women's and slayers. He knew what he was capable of and knowing that he just sent Buffy to save Faith's life might have just sent her to her death. "Buffy." he shouted and tried to get her attention, but it was no use. She was already running over with a stake in her hand.

Buffy rushes up between them. She shoves one vampire onto the ground, forcing Trick to go flying as she slams her stake into Kakistos chest. Kakistos laughs and pulls the stake out. He then tosses Buffy to the ground. "I think you need a bigger stake slayer." He moves towards her.

Angel moves forward but every swing he throws doesn't help. The demon swings at her, but she ducks. She stands up and tries to stake him again, but even though the stake goes in deeper this time, it still has no effect on him. Again he grabs her by the head and shoves her back onto the ground. Buffy cries out as she looks over to see Faith missing. The demon Kakistos stares at her and leaves. "I'll see you real soon slayer." He then leaves her there dizzy while he and his goons drive off.

Buffy quickly gets up and holds her head. "I swear they watch a little too much of WWF." Buffy mumbled.

Angel smirked at her amusement at every situation, she gets herself into. He wonders how she can joke at times like these. "Buffy you can't go after her. Their kill you."

Buffy ignored him and ran towards the car. "Angel I have to help her, they will kill her."

"But Buffy you could get killed." Angel asked wishing this very moment he could touch her and tie her up, so she won't have to get hurt."

Angel looked over again to see her gaining speed on the car. Damn she's fast he thought. He was going to have to find a faster way to keep up with her. He kept running faster until he found himself face down on the ground. He stood up and realized he was not in Sunnydale anymore. He was standing in a white room with two familiar oracles.


Faith wakes up with a major headache as she finds her feet and hands chained down to a stone. She starts to freak out when she sees' Kakistos beside her. "NO….no..no He punches her hard breaking her nose. "You know when I killed your Watcher, she begged for her life. And if it wasn't for you interfering, I would have had more fun. I guessed that means you will probably be alive a very long time before I'm finished with you." Faith screams again as he reaches and grabs her by the shirt ripping the right side off. He grabs the dagger that was laying on a table as he lunges it in Faith's shoulder. "I guess we're even now."

"Faith screams as she feels the knife being ripped out as she feels his fangs sink in. She almost loses control when she suddenly has flash backs of what he did to her watcher.

Faith walks into the warehouse as she gets ambushed by Trick. He drags her into a dark room as her eyes lay on her watcher who was bound and nude lying on a stone. There were marks are over her body. Kakistos was looming over her watcher button up his pants. Faith went into panic mode realizing what he has done to her watcher. "You….bastard."

He smirked at the slayer and stared at her. "I hope there are no hard feeling slayers."

Faith went furious then and side kicked Trick making him fly to the wall. She then leapt towards her watcher but was pulled back by three vampires that held her down. She then leaned over to see Kakistos grab a sword and sliced her watcher in two. Blood splattered everywhere.

"Noooo." Faith punched and kicked the vampires off of her and pulled her golden dagger out of her pocket. She then ran full force at Kakistos.

Kakistos didn't' know what hit him until he was knocked down on the ground by the slayer strength. He then roared as Faith jammed the dagger into his face right above the eye.

Trick grabbed her and tossed her to the other side. Faith ran at that moment as she has seen Kakistos pulled the dagger out and growled at her.

"Faith's heart pounded in her chest as she was still lying down on the stone realizing she was not dead yet. " One of her feet broken free from the chain and kicked him in the balls. He growled and before he could bite her again he was suddenly tossed off her.

He turned around and smirked as he was faced with another slayer. He looked around noticing all of his minions were dust, and he was staring at a very pissed off slayer. "You come to be on the next menu slayer."

Buffy smirked and then lunged at the vampire. "You wish."

Buffy picks up a crowbar and swings it like a baseball at the vampire. Kakistos just smirks and grabs her by the neck. Buffy kicks and thrust the crowbar in his chest which makes him fall to the ground for a few moments.

Buffy tries to run towards Faith but is tossed to the side by Trick. "Hello pretty thing."

Buffy grimaced and picks up her stake and lunges it at Kakistos that starts to get up. The stake doesn't' penetrate his hard skin as she suddenly gets tossed like a rag dog.

"In the far corner a mysterious stranger cloaked in black from head to toe comes up beside Trick. "We had a deal….Don't make me regret It." the stranger says.

"Trick rolls his eyes and stares at him. "Fine as long as I'm working for someone that's more powerful than him then i don't care ." Trick replied.

The stranger smirks and makes his way over to Faith. "He sees her confused and scared look as he hoovers over her body. He bites his wrist and forces it in her mouth." She struggles but soon gives up as the rich blood goes down her throat.

A few moment later the stranger quickly takes his wrist back and unhooks the chains on her wrist and hands. He notices her open blouse and curses at Kakistos for hurting his slayer. Just the very thought of her being his slayer was starting to fascinate him because there was something about her that intrigued him. Even knowing he killed a few in his past doesn't mean it won't be fun turning a slayer into something darker than she already is. He smirked knowing this would be fun and even more than so it would be more fun if that blonde slayer would finally die for a change. He was bloody tired of her messing up all his plans.

He stood beside the sleeping slayer as he crossed his arms and watched as the blonde slayer fought Kakistos.

Buffy jumps up and runs over to attack him full force as she does a roundhouse kicking him in the back of the knee. She quickly spins in front of him and backhands him in the face. "

Trick goes to stop Buffy but the stranger stops him once again. "Remember what I told you."

Trick stops and reconsiders that for a moment, and decides that having Kakistos dead wouldn't be such a bad thing.

Buffy backhands Kakistos, landing a hard punch. Which doesn't faze him? He smirks and is about to punch the blonde slayer when she does back flip and lands behind him. He quickly snarls and turns around as she double kicks him making him fall backward.

Buffy looks down and smirks as a piece of wood goes threw his chest and out the other end. "Well I guess I did find something to stab that thick skin of yours." she smirked as He exploded into ashes.

Buffy turns and see's Faith sitting up with the help of a cloaked stranger. she was sitting up dazed and staring at the stranger. Her top torn and her neck bloody. She starts to move forward when she sees the stranger stare at her.

She starts to go towards him with a stake in her hand knowing he was a vamp or demon, she could feel it in her gut. She takes another step when he suddenly sees him disappears. "Damn, when did they start with the disappearing act?" She looks around again and then back at Faith, who stared at her sadly.

"Faith are you ok. Did they hurt you?" Buffy asked.

Faith stares at her still too freaked out to think straight. The cuts on her body were vanished, and she had no idea who the mysterious stranger was. All that she knew she was almost dead, and he saved her.

"Faith, what happened?"

I... I was *there* when he killed my Watcher, and I saw what he did to her... what he was going to do to me. I tried to stop him, but I... I couldn't. And I ran here hoping I could find some help here. I was at my apartment when they came in and tired of attack. I jumped, ran and got captured. I was almost dead when….

Buffy stared at her and wondered if she has seen the mysterious stranger too. "When, what?"

"There was someone cloaked in black. He saved me…..I think. Faith replied remembering she was forced to drink his blood. "Oh god he was a vampire….I drank blood."

Buffy's eyes became wide as she reached for her stake but stopped as she realizes Faith was still breathing and very much alive. So she really couldn't be a vampire. "You're not a vampire Faith that's all that matters.

Come on we can get something to eat and talk some more." Buffy asked still wondering who the cloaked person was. "Are you sure your ok?"

Faith glared and stared up at Buffy. "I'm fine." Although she wasn't really fine. She was more confused then she ever thought before.


That night Buffy and Faith explained to Giles what happened. After that Buffy had offered Faith to stay with her but she wanted to be alone. So after Faith left Buffy realized she hasn't seen Angel for awhile. After an hour of trying to find him with no luck she called Willow. Willow went to Angel's mansion while she went to the Cemetery to look for him. She sighed remembering the last time she has seen him was on the street when she was chasing Kakistos. She sighed already missing him. She looked at the ring on her hand and hoped and prayed he would come back to her.

Buffy walks up to his grave and sits down. She then notices his ring on top of his grave stone. She picks it up and looks at it curiously wondering how it got here. Did Angel leave it for her? Did something happen to him? Oh god something could have happened while she went to help faith. He could be captured or….wait. He was a ghost he couldn't be captured could he. She sighed and held her head as she started to get a headache.

She got up and was about to grab her cell phone to call Willow when the ground began to shake. She stumbled falling as she watched the ring drop from the stone to the ground. It made a bright light that illuminated the area. It vibrated and into a bright white light.

A few moments later Buffy stood up slightly scared and intrigued by what just happened. Was she seeing things or did a while light just blind her coming from Angel's grave? She sighed and took a step closer noticing there was nothing. No noise, no ground moving….Maybe she really was seeing things.

She took a step back and walked back toward the mansion when she heard something coming from the ground. She looked back to see a hand come out of Angel's grave and then a familiar face coming out from the grave.

She almost passed out right then when she seen the hand come out of the grave. She couldn't do nothing but stare as he crawled his way out like an animal. Then there was something different about him. His eyes were almost glowing yellow as he stared at her. It made her shiver to stare at his eyes her thoughts were suddenly erupted as she was slammed into the ground.

She looked up to see him above her dirty, disorientated and not talkative as he began to sniff her.

Angel?..... you know the sniffing thing is gross right" Buffy replied trying to make a joke but was cut off as he started to lick her neck. "Oh god." She gasped and places a gentle hand on his chest realizing he was human. He was normal and he was warm, but why was he acting like a animal?

"Angel released his mouth from her neck and just stared at her not knowing truly who she was. The thing he knew was she was, and he was hungry. Angel stared at her as the blood lust started to control him. His face started to change and her face was filled with fear. Before he could calm her down she screamed.
