Buffy called Willow the second she got into the house.
"Willow, Keenan's outside, stay at home until I tell you to come over."
"Buffy, what's happening, tell me what's going on?"
"Angel drove me home, Keenan was there, he's outside with Angel now"
A loud dog yelp made Buffy jump.
"Willow, I have to go, I'll call you In a second"
Hanging up before she could hear Willow's reply Buffy pulled on a pair of black skinny jean and a pink top, with her high heeled boots, grabbing the leather jacket Angel had given her a year ago, she ran of her front door, she knew Angel would be angry that she hadn't listened to him and put herself in danger but at that moment she didn't care.
Running down the road, she skidded to a halt as she saw the dead Rottweiler in the middle of the road. Its neck looked broken, it wasn't moving, it had to have been Angel who had killed it but Angel, Keenan and the two boys had vanished.
Frowning, she looked around but there was no clue to where they could have gone. A sudden blow to the back of her head made her gasp and pain. Spinning around, a large vampire, stood behind her snarling. She could have kicked herself, how could she have been so stupid. You always have to keep your guard up in Sunnydale at night, because 9 times out of 10 a vampire would be behind you.
Turning and kicking the vampire in the face, she looked around for anything she could use to kill it. She had been so stupid, she was the slayer and she had gone out at night without her stake.
The Vampire was massive, he was 4 inches taller than Angel, she wouldn't be able to keep this fight up for long, he was just too strong.
Kicking her, she fell to the floor, the massive form of the Vampire towering over her. It grinned evilly down at her, it would be the killer of the slayer, and it would be highly respected by its fellow's after this Buffy knew.
Grabbing her by the neck it pulled her to her feet and held her neck tighter, she couldn't breathe, her vision started to go black then suddenly the hand dispersed and she fell choking to the floor.
"Buffy, are you alright?"
Still coughing, she breathed in much needed air, the dizziness and black spots vanishing from her vision, she looked up into Angel's face. Taking her hand, he pulled her quickly to her feet and led her into the house.
"What happened Angel? Did you get Keenan, is he dead?"
Angel's face showed many emotions. Sadness, Anger and many more she couldn't understand.
"He set the dog on me, I snapped its neck, and his friends got scared and ran. He tried to beat me up himself but I overpowered him and took him to the graveyard and threw him into the arms of a newborn vampire. It killed him; I staked it and then buried Keenan in its grave"
Angel looked guilty.
"What's wrong?"
"I swore to myself after I got my soul back that unless need be, I would never kill a human."
"He deserved to die. He didn't just hurt me; he hurt Shana and threatened Willow. He killed so many people. If anyone should feel guilty it's him"
Cradling his face in her hands Buffy looked up at her love and smiled.
"I love you, my Angel, I'm sorry for everything. I hurt you and that was wrong, you should hate me"
Shaking his head and smiling.
"I love you, there's nothing to forgive, Keenan manipulated your feelings when you were feeling weak. I could never hate you, you could do the worst thing imaginable and I wouldn't hate you even then. You are the light of my life. Before you, I was all alone; I had nothing to live for only my guilt at what I had done. I love and protect you for the rest of my life, however long that may be."
Smiling up at him, she laughed gently before pulling his face down to hers in an electrifying kiss.
Unbeknown to both Angel and Buffy, the oracles looked down on them smiling; the forbidden lovers had no idea of what was to happen soon.
THE END!
