Chapter 11:
A few nights later Angelus was prowling the rooftops, when he heard a battle. He ran to the scene, and saw Cole fighting two Zotare demons. He dove off the roof, and kicked one of the Zotare's as he landed. Cole spun around, and upon seeing Angelus focused solely on the demon he was fighting. The other Zotare glared at Angelus as it hissed, " Do you have any idea what you have involved yourself in vampire?"
Angelus shot the demon a feral grin as he replied sarcastically, " Yea ye royal poof."
The demon lashed out with several lightning bolts, but Angelus deftly spun around them, and smashed the one with the mouth in the face with a vicious haymaker, that sent the demon flying into a wall. It jumped to it's feet, and again hurled bolts of lightning at Angelus. And again he deftly spun around them, and peppered the demons midsection with a brutal combination of jabs, and hooks, then he bounced the demon's head off of his knee, then he hit the demon under the chin with a palm strike, that snapped it's head back, then he snapped the demon's neck. Cole was very impressed, as well as very skeptical as he said, " Thanks for the assist, but why did you help me?"
Angelus glared as his face reverted back to normal, and he replied, " I was just tryin at help ye ye ungrateful git."
Cole said, " I'm very grateful, but I can't help but think that you helped me because you wanted Paige to see that you're good now."
Angelus growled as he lit a cigarette, and drawled, "Look boyo I just wanted to lend ye a helpin hand."
Cole scrutinized him for several minutes, then nodded as he said, " Alright I believe you. You wanna see Paige?"
Angelus nodded as he exhaled a cloud of bluish smoke, and said, " Why o course boyo."
They were about to shimmer to the Manor, when of Dracula's brides taunted, " My master's going to have fun with the witches."
Both Cole, and Angelus whipped around, and Cole asked through clenched teeth, " What are you talking about?"
The bride replied as she pointed to Angelus, " Since he has left the witches unprotected my master will feast upon their blood."
And with that she turned into a bat, and flew away." Cole was clearly baffled as he asked, " Do you have any idea what the hell she was talking about?"
Angelus replied bitterly, " Yea, I do. Ye see now that I'm ggone, Dracula will have free reighn to stalk, an kill the girls."
Cole's eyes widened in horror as he said, " I have to get back. You coming?"
Angelus crushed out his cigarette as he replied, " No, I have to see me lawyer."
Cole nodded as he shimmered away."
And as Angelus disappeared he was completely unaware that he was by being watched by three pair of golden eyes.
Who was watching Angelus? Should Angelus kill Lilah?
