(Xander's POV)

This is really weird.

Okay, so that's the third time I've thought that in the past five seconds…but it is.

Some chick just burst down the door and was followed by that tall guy and now they're fighting. I don't know what the heck I am supposed to do.

I see a blonde move towards Faith and tumble into some glass. It was Jane who hit the brunette! Or…was it Jean? June? Jamie?

(Buffy's POV)

OUCH!

There is glass all around me, and, what did I just do?

Before having any time to react, the Faith chick pushed me backwards so that I fell onto my back.

How did I get here? I don't even know what the heck I am doing. I mean, this is some super-duper-bitch-chick and I just rammed her into a wall.

"Useful bit o' metal, you think?"

Who is that? I'm sure that it is one of the Englishmen, either Rupert or Randy. I look to my right and see the younger peroxide one standing with the sword that…did he ever introduce himself? I assume he must be good, I mean, he did try to help us from Faith who I just know is bad.

"Randy, leave him! He's trying to help us!"

(Spike's POV)

Who does she think she is telling me to leave him? How the bloody hell do I know if he's on my side or not? There are a million sides he could be on, mine only being one of them. Besides, I feel this loathing hatred for him and I don't even know who he is.

I decide that my gut instinct is the only one I shall be following and ignore Joan, keeping the sword at this guy.

"I think I'll play by some of my own rules, thank you."

(Angel's POV)

Did Buffy just say Randy? Who the hell is Randy? And why did Spike answer? And when did he start dressing like Giles? Wow, I have too many questions right now.

I rolled back a little and hit Spike in the gut with both feet before getting back on them. Spike had dropped the sword and I picked it up, pointing it towards the peroxide pain-in-my-ass. "Stay out of my way."

I didn't have time to ponder about these questions bumping around in my head like a pinball machine; I have to get Faith away from here, away from Buffy. I know I hurt her, I know I left, but I still can't stop loving her, caring for her.

Buffy's on her back and Faith's coming for her. Here is my chance.

(Faith's POV)

Does he think I'm stupid?

It wouldn't be surprising really, he never thought I was that entirely brilliant.

I sensed him getting nearer and smirked at B'. I knew she loved him still, even with that military-like Riley boyfriend she had, how good in bed he was I think it was the first smart move she's made, she was thinkin' of Angel here.

He thrust the sword at my gut and I dodged it with ease and almost a yawn. I punched his gut then grabbed him and made him run the sword into the wall that Buffy had just rammed me into. The sword got stuck in the wall, for a little while. I punched his face and drove him into the wall as well, to get yanked backwards by B'.

Damn, either the bitch is ramming me forwards or yanking me back.

(Buffy's POV)

I've come to realize that I'm the leader of this group. No one else besides Randy is making an effort and Randy was going for the wrong team, and anyhow, I've got these weird feelings for this guy.

Faith and I tumble back and she gives me a mouth full of elbow. I'm expecting it to hurt like hell, but it only hurts no hell. I'm not saying I'm complaining though. Simple pain is better than, well than worse pain.

Again I find myself on my back, but this time I flip her over me so she is on the ground as well.

I don't know where I learned to do these things, I'm just going with what I think would work. But how do I know what will work or not? I don't even know my real name.

Faith was to her feet before I was. She punched me and I stammered to the side. She punched me again harder, sending me into a shelf of miscellaneous magic items. I hit my head on some weird stone or crystal or something on one of the shelves and blacked out for a moment, but it wasn't really a blackout.

Angel.

I saw us kissing, me killing him, us kissing again, us fighting side by side against a huge snake, him leaving me, Faith in LA with him, Riley and Angel fighting. It was all coming back to me. Well, the part about Angel. I still had no idea who I was, but I knew a hell of a lot about Angel.

I'm the Slayer and I had loved him, he is a vampire and he loved me, we split up and now here we are again.

I opened my eyes just in time to roll to the left, dodging a kick from Faith.

(Giles's POV)

My shop!

Well, I mean, I'm assuming it is mine. But that doesn't matter, look at what they are doing to the place!

There is broken glass every which way and spilled liquids all over the floor. These things must cost a fortune, and Joan is bleeding everywhere!

Oh good Lord, I knew as soon as this Faith girl broke down the door that this would not end well.

(Buffy's POV)

I get to my feet and block Faith's foot, coming up to kick my side. I push her leg down hard and punch her in the face, then look to Angel.

It's so great to remember something

My eyes widen and we both yell for each other to watch out.

He turns in time to dodge Spike's blow, but I'm not so lucky. Faith punches my face twice then kicks me.

(Angel's POV)

Oh God how I've missed hearing Buffy say my name. Even if she was telling me to watch myself, she was still saying 'Angel'. Part of me still longs to be with her, most of me always will. She will never remember the single day I spent with her as a human, only I alone can carry the memory. I can still remember the way it felt to hold her, to kiss her, to love her without a worry of losing my soul. I've longed for it ever since, but I know I am damned to leading my life this way.

I dodge some poorly aimed blows from Spike and then throw him into a shelf. I didn't come here to fight him, I came to protect Buffy from Faith. Buffy and the gang, but really, mostly her.

I run over to her and pull the rouge backwards. She gets free of my grip and nearly growls.

"This isn't over." She says and runs out of the building.

I quickly turn my attention to Buffy and touch her shoulder. "Are you alright?"

(Buffy's POV)

Finally she is gone.

I look up at Angel and smile a little. It feels right to have him touching me, like there was a piece missing from me that I never knew I lost was now replaced.

Then again, most of me is lost seeing as I can't even remember my own name.

I nod to him. "Yeah, for the most part I'm okay. A little confused, but okay."

When he takes his hand from my should, he takes the missing piece with him and I almost frown. I'm not sure what I should be doing right now. I could kiss him, but are we upset with one other?

I would ask him who I am, but he would probably think I am insane for not knowing, so what do I do?

TBC!
