Chapter 21:

He continued to scream for several minutes, then his screams turned into sobs. He slid down the wall, his head in his hands as blood tears ran down his cheeks. Paige heard the scream, and hurriedly orbed down to the basement, but as she walked toward him he saw Jenny Calendar. The imaginary Jenny Calendar said, " You killed me, and my entire family. You are a monster. Do you hear me a monster."

Angelus screamed, " I'm sorry, I'm so sorry."

Paige asked, " What's wrong with him?"

Cole replied, " It's his soul, he's reliving every evil thing he's ever done."

Angelus cried out, " I'm so bloody sorry Darryl… I shoulda never tortured ye."

Paige went to touch Angelus, but Cole grabbed her hand as he said, " Don't touch him, he's likely to hurt you."

At Paige's pointed look Cole said, " He wouldn't mean to, but he would."

Paige asked, " I thought the spell was supposed to merge his soul, and his demon?"

Cole replied, " It did, but he's still feeling the guilt over all of the deaths he is responsible for."

She watched as he continued to shout at the empty air. Suddenly he jumped to his feet, and began to pace as he muttered to himself, " I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry Katherine, I never should have killed ye, ye thought I was yer Angel retuned to ye."

Paige asked, " Who's Katherine?"

Cole replied, " Katherine was his sister, he killed her when he first became a vampire."

Paige gave him an odd look as she asked, " How do you know?"

Cole replied, " He told me."

Angelus suddenly started to shout, " Mother I'm sorry. I shouldn't've killed ye either. Please forgive me."

Paige, and Cole watched as Angelus stopped screaming, and began mumbling again, " Ye were a good fighter Faith, ye never deserved ta die the way ye did, same goes fer ye two as well. Wes, Gunn, I'm so very sorry. But the one I'm most sorry but is Fred. I raped ye fer hours luv, then only after ye were broke, did I kill ye."

Paige stared at Angelus for several minutes before she went back upstairs, leaving only Cole to watch him. Paige watched Angelus around the clock for six straight weeks. Finally at the beginning of the seventh week Angelus, and Paige came up from the basement. Piper, and Phoebe noticed that he'd changed from his black leather pants, and dark red button up shirt into a pair of tight black jeans, black boots, and a tight long sleeve black t-shirt. Phoebe asked, " Feeling better Angelus?"

He replied as he lit a cigarette, " Name's Angel."

Piper asked, " Why the name change?"

Angel replied as he exhaled a cloud of bluish smoke, " Tis fer me sister Kathy, she always said I was her Angel."

Cole nodded at him as Phoebe had a premonition. When it was over Angel asked, " What'd ye see darlin?"

Phoebe replied, " I saw a swarm of giant reptiles attacking a young girl."

Angel said as he shrugged on his duster, and they all headed for the door, , " Let's go to work.

I know in Buffy Spike suffered for two weeks, but I figured since Angelus was evil for 2, and half centuries he would suffer for a month, and half.
