This is my first try at a Buffy fic so don't be too harsh, comments and suggestions or even praise for my lovely story are very welcome! ************************ CLOAKED IN DARKNESS ************************ Chapter 7: Unwanted Meeting The vampire saw her also and threw Gabriella to the ground, she hit hard and blackness covered her vision as the sounds of fighting reached her ears. Buffy shouted angrily and then someone was pulling Gabriella roughly from off the ground. "Okay, what were you doing with him?" the blonde demanded as she ran her eyes over the dark-haired girl and her eyes were full of suspicion. Buffy suddenly grabbed a cross and thrust it into Gabriella’s face, the dark-haired girl was startled but didn’t flinch as the cold metal touch her face. "I Uh, I’m sorry, I thought you might be one of them" the blonde admitted sheepishly and Gabriella stared at her for a moment then laughed. Buffy looked surprised and then began to laugh also, it lasted only a minute and then a look of jealousy crossed Buffy’s face and she turned away to get a hand on her emotion’s. "You’re Angel’s friend, aren’t you?" Buffy asked as she turned back to Gabriella and there was nothing but polite interest in the blonde’s gaze. She flinched away slightly as Gabriella reached out to pull a twig from her hair but the dark-haired girl didn’t seem offended. "Yes, I met him the same night I Ah, took your table" Gabriella said delicately as she began to walk back in the direction of ‘The Bronze’. Buffy followed after a moment, scanning the area for any more vampires, she didn’t tell the girl but that vampire had gotten away unscathed. Buffy had had strange feelings al night, as if being watched and then she had left with a sudden urge to hunt vampires. She had come upon the girl sitting next to a vampire and then he had grabbed her arms and Buffy had sprung into action. "I am Gabriella" the girl said and Buffy looked at the girl who was taller by a few inches, but god she walked so gracefully. She was beautiful too and Buffy felt envious of the long silky hair for a split second, then it faded as she looked more closely at her companion. Gabriella looked down at Buffy as they walked as if sensing the blonde’s curiosity and Buffy saw something flicker at the back of the deep green eyes a moment before someone moved in the shadows ahead of them. "Angel" Gabriella said calmly and Buffy recognized him a moment later, startled that Gabriella had instantly recognized the vampire even though he still stood mostly in the darkness of the wall. "Gabriella, I didn’t think you had met Buffy" Angel said in a questioning tone and Buffy gritted her teeth, angered that Angel had not even addressed her yet or even looked in her direction for that matter. "Oh, I hadn’t. We...came across each other in the park" Gabriella told him and Buffy sensed that the girl was trying to cover up that Buffy had fought a vampire. "A vampire attacked her in the park, I tried to stake him but he got away" Buffy muttered, forgetting that she didn’t want Gabriella to know that her would-be-killer had escaped. A soft gasp from the dark-haired girl made Buffy regret her words and she twisted a stake in her hands anxiously as Angel stepped out of the shadows and into the moonlight. "He got away?" he said almost incredulously and Buffy was suddenly very angry, thrusting her face close to his so that he could see the fury in her eyes. "Yeah, he got away, what of it. If you’re going to accuse someone, why don’t you ask your girlfriend here why she was all cozy with the vamp!" Buffy yelled at him, his eyes widened in surprise and then anger as he pushed her away and turned to Gabriella, who was watching with an unreadable expression. "Did he hurt you?’ Angel demanded roughly, all concern for the girl and Buffy drew in a gasp incredulously. Angel had not even questioned the girl about her talking to the vampire and worse, he hadn’t denied that Gabriella was his girlfriend. "I am...fine Angel. We were talking, he seemed so nice...so human and then he suddenly went to attack me" Gabriella said in a soft voice, her long dark lashes lowered over her eyes so that neither Buffy nor Angel could see what she was feeling. Angel put a comforting arm around her shoulders and she leaned into the warmth for a moment, then an undefinable expression crossed her face and she stared at Angel strangely. "I...I have to go back to my hotel now, the sun will be up in a few hours and I have things to plan" she told them both hurriedly, glancing around as if expecting to see something and Buffy looked around also. Gabriella pulled away from Angel abruptly and walked away gracefully, but noticeably fast. Buffy and Angel watched her go and he had a slightly bemused expression on his face when he turned to Buffy, her’s however was slightly malicious. "That was rather abrupt of her Angel, think she realized out you were a vampire, like the one that just attacked her?" Buffy taunted, tossing a stake from hand to hand, her eyes glittering mocking and Angel gave her a look of disgust. "I doubt it, she couldn’t even tell the guy she was with was one, besides she’s been around me a few times and would have known by now...and you didn’t know I was one until I kissed you" he reminded her, walking off and they were both surprised when she followed him, walking quietly by his side as they headed in the direction Gabriella had gone minutes before. "Is she your...girlfriend?" Buffy asked hesitantly and Angel met her eyes, something undefinable in them, his mouth curled softly and for a moment she thought she sensed love from him. But then it was gone and she was staring into eyes that met her’s coolly, his hands thrust into his leather jacket casually and he walked off without a word. **************************************** "Master" the shadows moved slightly and a vampire came into the chamber, head bowed slightly. The master watched as the vampire came closer and then looked up, meeting yellow eyes. "Gareth, we have not seen you for a month now, I was disappointed when my followers could not find you" the Master told Gareth almost gently but Gareth had known the Master for a long time now and saw that the ancient vampire was not at all pleased to have to look for him. "I’ve had work to do Master, but I did not come here for..." the master interrupted, laying a hand on the head of a child that Gareth had noticed sitting my the Master. The child raised totally evil eyes and Gareth found himself grinning back at the wicked smile that played around the child’s mouth. "Of course you didn’t Gareth...you’re a busy vampire. What brings you back to my humble abode?" the Master almost purred and Gareth felt danger enter the room almost perceptively, the Master was toying with him and probably had already alerted hidden vampires. With a mere twitch of a face-ridge, the master could have him executed and Gareth swallowed convulsively. "A girl, I want to bring her over" he blurted and the master raised an eyebrow almost incredulously. "And you are telling me this...why? It had better not be The Slayer..." the Master inquired calmly and Gareth knew he would have been sweating like a mortal if he had been one. "No! I have found a way to get to both The Slayer and Angelus. I was out hunting when I came across this girl in the park, the Slayer rescued her and I stayed around to watch" Gareth looked around at the vampires that had now moved into the room and he swallowed again nervously as they grinned at him, but the Master waved them back. "And? What has this to do with Angelus?" the Master demanded softly and Gareth moved slightly closer, almost conspiritally. The Master’s face became delighted as Gareth talked, something unreadable in his eyes. "As I was saying, I followed them, it seems that the Slayer really doesn’t like this girl and she is also...Angelus’ new girlfriend. I witnessed the Slayer and Angelus have a fight over the girl, I believe if we bring her over we can use her against them both!" Gareth said excitedly, becoming vampire without realizing it and the Master gave him a slightly fond expression. "You always were a schemer Gareth, the best of my soldiers...Very well, bring her to me. If she is an enemy of the Slayer, it will be amusing to face her off against this girl and as for Angelus...I can use her to bring him back to us!" the master waved Gareth off negligently and the vampire left hurriedly, hoping there was enough time before sunup. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 08 Jun 1998 08:28:24 PDT From: "Andrea Newbery" Subject: BUFFYFIC: Repercussions, part 10 Title: Repercussions part 10 Author: Andrea e-mail: anewbery@hotmail.com Summary: Um...well it's after B2, so it's basically my attempt to make everything all better. Well, after I make them suffer a bit more. :) Disclaimers: The characters in this story are not mine. They are the property of Joss Whedon, Mutant Enemy, WB, etc. I am not making any money from this. Feedback: Please. Good and bad. Again, a huge thank you to Rachel and Christine for their help with this. :) Chapter ten The street outside Angel’s apartment. August 21, 1998 5:30 p.m. Xander held Cordelia’s hand tightly as they slowly walked towards Angel’s apartment, trying to ignore the rolling of his stomach. He wanted nothing more than to turn and walk the other way, but was continuing forward, his jaw clenched. He attempted to loosen it, trying to keep any sign of his nervousness hidden from Cordelia. She must have noticed though because she squeezed his hand, silently telling him it was okay to be afraid. He looked over at her, amazed at how far they had come. Cordelia Chase walking with him in the rain. No complaints about her hair being ruined or her clothes getting wet. Smiling at her he pulled his hand from hers and draped his arm around her shoulders, needing more contact with her. Everything was in slow motion to him now, one building fading slowly into the next. His mind was remarkably clear for someone about to head into hell, but he knew he was doing the right thing. Even if his motives weren’t all unselfish. He needed Willow and Buffy to forgive him and if Angel was back they would be much more likely to listen to his reasoning. His eyes clouded, thinking of Willow’s words, once again thankful he wouldn’t see Buffy before he did this for her. Cordelia gasped softly, her steps slowing. He looked at her and then followed the direction of her stare to see. To see a figure walking slowly towards them. Her eyes focused downward, not aware of them yet. Xander stopped, his fingers gripping into Cordelia’s shoulders, unable to move as Buffy slowly walked closer to them. Cordelia looked at him, her face a mask of pity. He smiled at her, reassuring her that he could handle this. Turning back to the figure, he looked right into Buffy’s shocked face. Watched as the shock turned to anger, as her body tensed. She stopped walking, just stared at him, her eyes telling a tale of pain and betrayal. He felt his heart pounding, the pulse in his neck jumping. She walked slowly closer, the anger on her face hardening, becoming more evident in her eyes. She came to a halt only a few feet away from him. He looked at her, into her eyes for any sign of softness, any opening for him to talk to her through. He could feel the tenseness of Cordelia’s body underneath his arm. Cordelia spoke first, her voice nervous, “Buffy.” Buffy swung her eyes to Cordelia, nodding coldly. She turned back to Xander, her eyes lingering on his arm wrapped around Cordelia’s shoulder. He shifted, feeling his arm magnify under her gaze. He opened his mouth to speak, but the sudden tightness in Buffy’s mouth convinced him not to. She smiled softly at him, her hatred evident in the curve of her mouth, the hardness in her eyes. She spoke quietly, “You two look happy.” Her voice burned him, acid thrown in his face. He pulled his arm from Cordelia, understanding that his happiness was like a slap in the face to Buffy. He waited for her to continue, all thoughts of hell gone from his mind. “Are you?” Her voice whipped through the air. Her stance was aggressive, he swallowed feeling the muscle in his jaw beginnning to twitch, realizing she may not be in control of her actions. He didn’t answer her, understanding no words could get through to her now. “Are you!?” Her voice loud now, she was leaning in close to him, intimidating him with the strength of her anger. He shook his head, trying to force the word out, “No.” His heart breaking from the hatred and pain in her voice. She stepped back, her face calm again, speaking almost conversationally, “Why not?” Holding her hand up to keep him from answering she continued, “The demon is dead. Angel is dead. Things are how you wanted them.” He looked at her, trying to calm the shaking of his body, he began to speak, his voice sounding hollow to his ears, “Buffy...I...I thought, I w-wanted....” “Stop.” Her body was tense, ready to attack at any moment. Her voice was cracking, losing the coherence it had begun with, “Don’t _you_ try to explain. Try to make it okay.” Her breath was coming in short gasps, her fists clenched at her sides. Speaking slowly, her struggle for control evident in every word. “Angel is in hell. Things will never be _okay_ again.” She stopped, her whole body vibrating with anger. He watched her, tears forming in his eyes as he watched her control slip. Wanting to explain himself, he spoke softly, “But... Angel...” “NO!” She sprung at him, knocking him to the ground. Standing over him she spat out wildly, “Don’t you _ever_ speak his name. You have no right.” He lay there, frightened of what she would do next, but determined to let her do it. In the corner of his eye he could see Cordelia’s terrified face. He watched her open her mouth to speak. Realizing that she was about to tell Buffy their plans. Shaking his head at her he mouthed the word no. Staring at her until she nodded, accepting his decision. He turned his eyes back to Buffy, afraid to try and get up. Realizing she may not only verbally hurt him, but physically. His eyes locked on hers and for one moment he saw beyond her blind rage into the hurt that was hidden there. His stomach clenched, his tears overflowing for her suffering. Her face tightened once again, the rage hard for her to control, she stepped backwards away from him. He remained on the ground, waiting for the next nail to be placed in his coffin. Her lips curled as she considered him, her voice venom, “ I trusted you. Even knowing how you felt about Angel, I trusted you.” Her voice was shaking, her eyes burning into him, “ I thought of you as my friend. Someone I could trust. Someone who trusted me.” Each time the word trust fell from her mouth Xander winced. The pain of her hate searing him. She continued, “You knew how much I loved him.” Her voice breaking as she spoke. She swung her fingers together, copying Angel’s stance, “You knew how guilty I felt over what I did to him, that I made him lose his soul.” He could hear her anger rising in her voice again, “You knew how hard it would be for me to kill him.” She stopped then, her eyes wandering away from him. She continued looking out into the night for so long that he knew she was somewhere far away, lost in memories. He stood quickly, shoulders slumped, knowing she would turn back to him soon. Finally looking at him, she spoke, her face a distortion of itself in her rage, “You knew everything, and still you chose to betray me. You forced me to betray Angel. You sentenced me to that. You turned us both into betrayers.” She paused, taking a breath, her eyes shooting hate at him, “You decided that Xander knew best. Xander is the best judge of who deserves life and who doesn’t. Xander is the keeper of what’s right and wrong in the world.” Her voice was spinning out of control. He stepped towards her, his mouth opening to speak. She glared at him, daring him to answer her. His mind was screaming that it wasn’t like that. He had wanted to make it easier for her. He looked to Cordelia, needing her support. She was standing there, her face shocked, the unwilling witness to a massacre. Looking back to Buffy he waited for the rest of her words, his soul aching for what he had done to her. She looked him up and down, her face coated in revulsion. Speaking slowly, accentuating each word carefully. The poison dripping from each one, “We are betrayers. You and I. We take the love and trust others give us and we destroy it.” Her voice getting louder as she spoke, “We destroy everything we touch for our own selfish reasons.” He stood, feeling his life disintegrate as she spoke. She paused, breathing deeply, he could see the struggle for control written on her face. She calmed her emotions slowly, holding her anger in check. The hatred still seeping from every pore on her face. Smiling softly she whispered, “It’s done.” His stomach dropped, fighting to keep himself from collapsing, his eyes pleading with hers to forgive him. She took a step as if to walk away and then stopped, staring at him for a long minute. Then, her voice thick with disgust she spoke one last time, “Next time you decide to be judge and jury don’t sign me up as your executioner.” Xander stared at her in shock as she walked away. His eyes following her as she disappeared back into the night. His mind telling him she couldn’t really believe he had set her up to kill Angel, but the memory of the hatred in her eyes told him she did. He was silent, hoping she would come back, let him explain his actions. Cordelia reached out to him, her hand resting on his arm. Looking at her, at the pity in her face. She smiled sadly then spoke softly, “She doesn’t mean it Xander, she’s just in such pain.” He looked at her, wanting to believe her words, but unable to. He shook his head, the tears still running down his face, “But she’s still right. Isn’t she? I stole her choice.” His shoulders were slumped, his voice detached, “Maybe Angel deserved to die, maybe he didn’t. It wasn’t my choice to make for her. It was hers. And I took it.” He stopped, straightening his shoulders, his face determined, “And I’ll give it back to her. I’ll give him back to her, and then she can have her own choice.” Cordelia didn’t answer him, just squeezed his arm softly. Then she slowly removed her hand, pointing to her watch and looking towards Angel’s apartment. He looked at her, realizing it was time for him to make things right again. Taking her hand they slowly walked into the building. **** ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 8 Jun 1998 10:44:25 -0700 (PDT) From: Jeanie the Tortoise-Fly Subject: BUFFYFIC: The Mission (3/?) TITLE: "The Mission" (3/?)...or..."A luckdragon? What's that?" AUTHOR: Jeanie the Tortoise-Fly E-MAIL: DISTRIBUTION: Anya and Windrider have my permission. Anyone else ask and ye shall receive. SPOILERS: after "Killed By Death"...Isn't Ryan a cutie? DISCLAIMER: None of the Buffy characters belong to me, they belong to Joss Whedon and the WB etc. No copyright infringement intended. Anya, Robyn, TJ and Windrider are real people...they have given me permission to include them in this fic. They don't belong to anyone except themselves...though Anya has on occasion claimed that the bank owns a piece of her...My parents and my pets are real too but they don't get a say in this. Jeanie is me. No one owns me as far as I know so there's no copyright infringement there. The characters and concepts from "The Neverending Story" belong to Michael Ende, not me. When I'm done, I promise that all of the characters will be returned in one piece...even Windrider. AUTHOR'S NOTE: This is far form serious or typical of a buffyfic...If I had to classify it I'd say it's humor/desperation. Enjoy...or don't...it's up to you. Feedback is muchly appreciated, and I will use any flame mail to warm up my room [the floor is 1ft underground, and surrounded by cement, so it gets cold in here.] The Mission (3/?) Jeanie, Willow, Robyn, and Xander finally calmed Ryan down and got him home to his parents. They then headed to the Library in search of the Santa look-alike, Jeanie's dad. ***** Meanwhile, somewhere in Canada, [Ontario to be exact] Anya was staring, fascinated, at the words which were scrolling across her computer screen. It was amazing. The words appeared as things happened. Anya was quite shocked to suddenly see her name appearing on the screen along with a description of what she was doing. It was very much like the book and movie "the Neverending Story" where Bastian is reading a book and he finds that he is in it, and it is occurring as he reads it. Anya thought about this too. She found herself thinking about Falkor, the friendly pink-white luckdragon from the movie. She wished that she could ride Falkor to Sunnydale and help out her friends in the search. Suddenly she felt a slight stir in the air. Just as suddenly everything was calm, until: "Ooooh I've got an itch." Anya gasped as she spun around, a hard thing to do gracefully in a straight-backed wooden armchair, and found herself facing a large pinky-white luckdragon. "Um...ah...ahem...who...what...ohh!" Anya berated herself for being so unusually inarticulate. "Are you Falkor?" She asked almost certain of the answer. "Yes, child. Could you please do me a favor?" "A favor? I suppose so...what is it?" "Could you scratch behind my ear? I can't...quite...reach..." Anya gladly complied, realizing that if she relieved Falkor's itch He'd probably be more likely to help her. "Ohhhhhhh, a little to the right...up a little...ahhhhhhhhh. There! Ohhh that feels good." Falkor's voice was rich and creamy and he was obviously very happy to have that annoying little itch scratched. "Ohhh thank-you. Well little one, where is it that you want to go? Don't look so surprised, you wished for me to appear so I did. When an Archive Goddess beckons, a luckdragon always comes." "I thought it was just the wearer of the amulet...or that you at least had to be in Fantasia for that to work." Anya looked slightly confused, but that emotion was faint compared to the absolute joy she felt that her Goddess powers were once again working in her favor. "I'd like to go to Sunnydale to help Jeanie and the others find Jeanie's dad." "Then climb onto my back and HOLD ON!" Anya complied and as soon as Falkor was sure she was secured, he took off. "Anya? Your friend TJ wants to come help too, should we stop off and get him on our way?" Anya was a little surprised that Falkor knew so much but she agreed and they flew West to Banff instead of South-West to California. ***** Similarly, in Banff, Alberta [Canada], TJ the Dyslexic Ferret was sitting in a swivel chair at his computer, hypnotized by the scrolling words. He noticed that a description of Anya's whereabouts appeared, and after it, one of his own began to scroll across the screen. Like Anya, TJ began to think of "the Neverending Story," Bastian, and Falkor. When he read that Falkor was with Anya, he wished that Falkor would also bring him along to Sunnydale. Strangely enough, just then he read that Falkor was already ahead of him and that Anya and Falkor were on the way. ***** As all of this was happening, Windrider the Lurking Muskrat, was going through the stressful process of correcting the grammar and punctuation in his latest fic. He was hoping to get it posted sometime that week. Windrider had been foolish enough to ask Jeanie to betaread his story. He hadn't anticipated that she would do such a thorough job of it. When Jeanie was finished, Windrider, who was muttering all sorts of crude things about Tortoise-Fly's, literally had hundreds of corrections to make. Finally, when Windrider was about halfway through his story he decided to quit temporarily. After all, there is only so much Constructive Criticism that a guy can take before *he* needs some Prozac. Once he exited his word processor Windrider noticed that there were words scrolling across his computer screen. He had looked soon enough to see that TJ and Anya were traveling to Sunnydale on the back of a luck dragon to help out some friends in need. Now Windrider, like most people, had seen "The Never Ending Story" and he remembered that luckdragon's were good creatures who were lucky and shared that luck with others. However, he also realized that Falkor was already on the way to Sunnydale, and that Tennessee was *way* out of the way. So he began wishing that there were *two* luckdragons. Well right about then he felt a gust of wind and got another idea. he could ride the wind to Sunnydale...unfortunately the wind was blowing in the wrong direction so He prepared to land in New york. Lucky for Windrider, Balkar, Falkor's cousin happened to be in New York at that same moment and when Windrider went flying past the Statue of Liberty, Balkar flew underneath him and the Lurking Muskrat landed on the luckdragon's back. Windrider was so surprised, it took him a moment to realize where he was...it's not every day you find yourself flying on the back of a large purple luckdragon. [note: *dragon* not *dinosaur* I would *never* include that purple dinosaur in any fic unless he was being pummeled to death by many, many, many Vampires and a slayer or two.] And so our friends were all on their way to Sunnydale California. Actually they all landed in the school parking lot at the same time as Jeanie, Robyn, Xander and Willow arrived there after taking Ryan back to his frantic parents. Unfortunately, as soon as the two luckdragons said their good-byes and everyone else had said their hello's, two very nasty looking Vampires chose this time to feast on some 'Happy Meals on wheels.' Just as one of the vamps was about to take a nice long drink from TJ's neck, he turned to dust. A moment later the other vamp was dusted as well, and in his place stood one very pretty, petite slayer. ***** Okay so It's still not done but at least it's a start. And yes I know it's cheesy but this is fanfic and it's not serious, just silly and a way for me to think of something other than the events of Becoming...which you will notice has not happened yet...nor will it ever happen...in *this* fic. Feedback Please! I don't mind Constructive Criticism...even destructive criticism might be better than no response at all. {grin} ~Jeanie _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
