Chapter 3

3:20PM at Hyperion Hotel

"What!" could be heard throughout the entire hotel. Even Fred could hear it and she was in her room busy with formulas. Wesley came running down the stairs from his room and out to the front desk. What he saw almost made him laugh but he managed to curve that reaction. Angel could be seen pacing the room and muttering while simultaneously running his hands up and down his face. Wesley clearly heard him say "That bleach blonde idiot got himself attacked by a Changeling demon."

"What in heavens name is a Changeling demon?" Wesley questioned somewhat puzzled since he hadn't heard of that kind of demon before.

"It is a demon that if you mix your blood with it you become healed of any injuries. Since being dead is an injury you become alive. Spike decided to play with a Changeling demon and ended up mixing their blood. Because of the healing properties in the blood he is now becoming painfully human. He should reach fully alive within three days, that is if he lives through the transformation. I"ve heard of demons dying from the transformation. Hopefully even though I am loath to admit it Buffy might just pull him through it,"Angel explained while still pacing.

"Well then we should go down there and see if they need any help," when Angel didn't answer Wesley looked over at him, "shouldn't we?"

"No," Angel sighed, "she can handle it herself she just needed to know what it was, although I think I jsut made her more worried with saying that he could die."

"Your not still upset that he's dating her are you because you know they're happy together."

"I'm not upset I just think she's way in over her head in this situation. I don't want to see her upset when he dies."

"If he dies if. Why do you automatically assume he's going to die. He's stronger than that and you know it."

Angel sighed and said, "I know it's just I miss her is all."

"We know you do you just need to let her go."

"I will...eventually"
