Chapter 19:
Angelus vamped out as he roared, " No bleedin way, you lot are gonna reensoul me."
Piper yelled, " Try, and stop us."
Angelus growled, " Don't tempt me witch."
Paige shot him a withering glare as she said, " Either you get your soul, or we stake you."
Angelus smirked as he said, " Try it, an ye'll all be dead."
Phoebe ran at him, and tried to kick him, but he grabbed her leg, and slung her into a wall. Leo threw a ball of lightning at him, but he deftly spun around it, and smashed the Whitelighter in the head with a right roundhouse kick. Then he wheeled around, and glared at Paige, and Piper as he growled, " Shoulda jus left it alone darlin."
As soon as he was finished Cole, having transformed into Belthazar grabbed him in a headlock, and tried to slam him into a wall, but Angelus ran up the wall, flipped over Cole, landed behind him, and slammed him face first into the wall. Then he grabbed Jenny Calendar, and jumped through a window.
Several weeks later Angelus walked into the cold dank room that had stashed Jenny in. He smirked as he looked at the many bruises, and cuts that he had inflicted. She looked up, and said weakly, " Just kill me already."
He sneered, " Oh I'm goin ta lass, but ye're gonna suffer. Ruined a good thing fer me ye did. They never even thought bout givin me my soul back till ye turned up."
He vamped out as he grabbed her, and said, " On second thought, maybe I should just kill ye now."
And with that he buried his fangs in her throat, and drained her dry. Then he scooped her dead body up into his arms, and dropped her in front of the Halliwell's front door. He rang the bell, then jumped onto an adjoining rooftop to watch the show. When the door opens, the girls come outside, and see the dead body that Angelus has left them. As Paige begins to cry, he speaks, " Passion. It lies in all of us. Sleeping... ...waiting... And though unwanted... ...unbidden... it will stir...open its jaws, and howl. It hurts sometimes more than we can bear. If we could live without passion, maybe we'd know some kind of peace. But we would be hollow. Empty rooms, shuttered and dank... Without passion, we'd be truly dead."
He watched them carry the dead body back into the house. When the door closed, he smirked as he disappeared into the night.
The speech is from the BTVS episode Passions. When I rensoul him, should I curse him, or make his soul like Spike's
