Chapter 7 Need a new place?

"I did exactly what you told me to do." Whispering was coming from the back of the apartment while Buffy headed over to find Andrew and Giles talking.

"What's going on?" asked Buffy with her bored tone as if she knows. Andrew quickly took a sip of his drink and let Giles explain.

"Um nothing." Giles quickly replied. "Buffy have you found anymore information on the Immortal?"

"Not much yet. I know he's been doing some kind of hocus pocus gibberish on my past relationships." She said sitting down.

"Hocus Pocus?" Giles asked, taking his glasses off.

"Like Willow's territory…only with other stuff." Andrew replied taking a seat next to Buffy, while she smiled at him in agreement.

"Buffy?" Giles asked hoping she'd explain.

"He's trying to do this background check on me. I just bumped into Riley, and Parker who I really didn't care about that much in saving." Buffy was thinking off to herself.

"Buffy?"

"Don't worry I saved him, I just maybe let him get tossed around a couple of times." She replied slightly smirking.

"What was Riley doing here?" asked Andrew taking another sip of his drink.

"He was on a mission and found out about me and the immortal, it seems the Immortal and him have a history. Riley believed I was under a love spell." Buffy began to chuckle.

"Is Riley still here?" asked Giles not taking that last bit amusing.

"No, his mission is over, went back to wherever."

"Ah."

"Yeah, the immortal asked me, what I'd do if certain men from my past suddenly show up? I answered, 'duck and cover'." She was thinking more in the lines of the past times that's happened, Angel meeting Riley, Riley and Spike, Spike and Angel, each having their competitions over her. "Could you imagine Angel coming back over here? Ehh," still thinking about the competitions. "isn't he working for the evil side now?" She asked trying not to loose her focus.

"Yes/No." Giles and Andrew said at the same time. Andrew the one saying no while Giles replying yes.

"Oh." Buffy just slightly smiled as she sat back in her seat.

"I'd better go, Willow said she needed help in a certain spell." Giles said while heading out.

"Well ok. See you later then?" Buffy asked following him towards the door.

"Yes. Goodnight Buffy, Andrew."

"Night Mr. Giles!" Andrew said as the door closed.

"So…what happened in LA?" Asked Buffy back to her bored tone again.

"Uhh," Andrew thought of what Spike said in not telling Buffy of him being alive. "Nothing much, met Angel and his team, got the psychotic slayer, came back. Night!" Andrew left in a rush to his room, leaving Buffy standing confused.

It's been a week since the night of meeting G, and he's been helping them patrol at night since. During the day after a restful sleep, G sets out to look for a new place to stay at. Not seeming to find any places opened yet. But continued his search since he could feel the unwelcome feeling at the hotel.

"Hey guy's, finally found a place!" Said G quickly walking in. Angel was sitting in his chair reading the paper while Spike was in the office doing research in the books. Ever since the whole death issues that happened in the past, Spike was the new thinker. Which he most defiantly wants known that it has nothing to do with him being English, it's just Angel has become a bloody lazy bum. Course that's Spike's choice of words.

"Good for you, now get out." Said Spike from a distance.

"Research?" G asked Angel indicating Spike.

"Yep." Angel said turning the page.

"Ok, want to come?" G asked.

"Nope." Angel said still reading the newspaper.

"You want me to go?"

"Yep."

"Right." G waved to Spike and headed out the door.

"You know you could have been a little more nice." Spike began to say coming out.

"What? You told him to get out." Angel replied looking at Spike irritated.

"See that's me. I have an excuse."

"Seems like you're the nice one now Spike." Angel got back to his reading.

"I'm starting to notice that." Spike walked back to the office looking disgusted and annoyed.

---------------------------------------

"Ok, well this is the room," said the apartment owner while trying to push the door open, "bathroom, kitchen area."

"How much?" G asked.

"4 hundred a month." G shook the man's hand in agreement for the apartment. The apartment owner gave G the keys. His watch then beeped and he admittedly left G in the apartment. G just shrugged his shoulders and went down to the car to get his things out. While he was climbing back up the stairs he heard a guy walk by mumbling to himself. Talking gibberish and twitching his head from time to time. G shrugged and ignored it and continued walking up the stairs. That night after finally moving out of the hotel and into his own apartment, with not that much help from either Vampires, G suddenly felt relaxed. But he awoke at twelve from hearing a noise coming from the hall. He opened his door and heard the sound of faint chanting. He decided to follow where the noise was coming from.

"Spike! Blood cult!" Angel shouted heading out the door.

Spike quickly jumped up after falling asleep from reading all the books. He hasn't been that bored over something since the time he found out he couldn't kill anything because of that stupid blasted chip. Thank God, Buffy asked for it to be taken out.

"I'm coming!" He shouted heading out the door.

G was suddenly coming closer to where the chanting was coming from. It was down in the basement he suddenly had the feeling maybe it wasn't such a good idea to go down. But G; when he has a feeling like that, it usually means there's something exciting that awaits; or dangerous.
