Part 1

Buffy stared at her ceiling with a bored expression. She was aching to go out hunting, but something told her not too. She got up from the bed, put on her jacket, and grabbed some stakes. This whole listen to your guts thing was wearing thin on her. At least she wouldn't have to make excuses to her mother,
Mrs. Summers' was in New York, at a gallery owners convention. It was a cold night in Sunnydale. Buffy hugged Angel's leather jacket to her. She walked down the deserted streets with a sense of forboding. Buffy knew somthing big was going to happen and it was going to happen soon. Her slayer senses kicked in.
She turned around and was face to face with what appeared to be a normal human, however, she knew it was not. He just stared at Buffy with an ominous look on his face. "So," he said, " you are the chosen one. It is a pleasure to meet you finally."
"Who are you? What are you?"Buffy asked.
"I'm an evil beyond your wildest imagination. No Slayer or hunter of evil has ever fought me and defeated me. You will not be the first so don't even think it."
With that, the stranger grabbed hold of Buffy's head and began to squeeze.It was a strange feeling because it didn't feel as though he was crushing her head, it was more like he was draining her power. She could feel herself becoming weaker and weaker.
Buffy couldn't get free of his grasp. Oh, god the pain, she thought. This guy, whatever he was, was stealing all her strength. All she could do was stand there and cry. Buffy cried for her mother, Angel, and Giles. And then, like a miracle, Angel appeared out of nowhere and came to her rescue. Angel was aptly named. Angel grabbed her captor and smashed his face. The guy ran away holding his face.

End part 1...if i get enough feedback, there will be more to come

FEEDBACK!!!!!! PLEASE!!!! this is my first fanfic so i am desperate for feedback...all kinds..even if it mean, although if it is mean then it had better be so mean that it is funny.

part 2

While Angel chased after Buffy's attacker, Buffy collapsed onto the ground. Unfortunately, the place on which she fell had broken glass and she cut her back severly. Angel came back to her. She tried to speak, but she did not have enough energy to open her mouth, so she just looked up at him with her tear-stained face and he nodded at her with understanding. He picked her up off the ground and carried her away.
They ended up in Angel's apartment. Angel laid her on the couch and went to get his first-aid kit. He took off her torn jacket and looked at her with amusement in his face. " In order for me to clean your scratches, you have to take your shirt off, Buffy," he said.
Buffy, still unable to speak, partly from shock, yet partly from the lack of energy, tugged fruitlessly at her shirt. She simply did not have it in her to lift it over her head. Angel reached down and lifted the material over her head. Buffy thanked her lucky stars that she had worn her favorite bra tonight. It was a beautiful light blue one that did not reveal too much, although Buffy was pretty sure that Angel was enjoying the view. The way Angel was discreetly sneaking glances towards her chest would have made her glow in pleasure if she had not been in so much physical and emotional pain.
Angel rolled Buffy onto her back and began to massage peroxide into her cuts. Some of them looked mighty deep and nasty. He finished cleaning them and then bandaged her back. He went over to his closet and got out a clean shirt. Angel went back to Buffy and put the shirt on her. It was huge, but at least she wouldn't have to wear the bloodstained t-shirt anymore. He picked up the jacket he had given her off the floor and noticed the rips in it. He threw it away and got another jacket just like it from the dresser. "Here," he said, placing the jacket over her. "I have plenty of jackets like this and i want you to have it."
Buffy was starting to feel a little better. She smiled up at him. She started to open her mouth and realized, thankfully, that she could move it again. "So it is Angel to the rescue again, huh? Maybe i should hire you as my personal bodyguard. Then you could always keep me in supply of black leather jackets. Thanks."
"For what?" he asked.
"For everything," Buffy said
Buffy got up and stumbled over to the door. Maybe leaving now wasn't such a good idea. Then again, Buffy didn't want to impose on Angel, He might feel obligated to offer her another jacket and before long he would have a wardrobe of nothing. She giggled to herself, thinking that the idea had promise. "What is so funny?" Angel asked her as he helped her over to his bed.
Buffy looked up at Angel and started to giggle harder. Pretty soon she was in hysterics and Angel joined in. Buffy realized she had never seen Angel laugh. It was refreshing, almost as refreshing as him with no clothes on. Well, not quite. Angel placed Buffy on his bed, and she was fast asleep. With Buffy asleep, angel had time to think things over. He knew nothing of the man that had attacked Buffy tonight. He had no idea why she had no energy after he attacked her, or why she couldn't fight him off in the first place. Angel couldn't think straight with Buffy sleeping so near to him, so he gave up and lay down on the couch.

FEEDBACK!!!!!!! Por favor!!!! Pretty please iwth a cherry on top? Come on guys, shower me with feedback, all kinds. Good, bad, mean. But if it is mean, it had better be so mean it is funny

and now....Part 3

Buffy awoke to the sound of Angel moving on the couch. She sat up and rubbed her head. It still kind of hurt from the previous night. Since Angel's apartment was sun-proofed, she could not see the sun, but she knew it was morning. " Angel, are you awake?"
" Yes i am sweetheart. Do you need anything?"
" No thanks."
Buffy got up and went over to the couch. She leaned over Angel and kissed him on the mouth. He sat up, surprised, and said," What was that for?"
"For being you. For saving my life, yet again. You know, as the Slayer, im not supposed to need your to help. It gets kind of frustrating to know that i do need it."
" Don't feel that way, Buffy. I want to help. As for kissing me, you know that we can't let this happen. We have tried this once before, and it did not work."
"Angel i don't care. I know what i feel, i know what you feel. I need you. I...I want you."
He pulled her down for another kiss. She accepted his kisses hungrily, almost as if they were the last supply of oxygen on the earth.She pushed off his jacket and pulled off his shirt. He slipped her shirt over her head. Angel hesitated for a moment. "Buffy, are you sure you want to do this? This would be your first time, right? You are only 16, maybe you want to wait." " I know what i want. I don't have to wait. I don't need time to think this over. I'm not your average 16 year old. So shutup and...well you know."

And that was the end of that coversation.

Giles' paced back and forth across the library. School had been out for 4 hours now. Buffy had missed it that day. The darkness outside overwhelmed him. He listened to Buffy and Angel's account of what had happened the night before. Both of them seemed mildly stressed about the attack, but Giles observed an idiotic grin on Buffy's face as Angel told his part of the story. What was wrong with that girl? "Buffy, how do you feel now? Do you feel as though you have all your strength back?" Giles asked
" Sure Giles, i feel wonderful. I mean i feel strong."
"Well i am going into the stacks to see if i can find anyhting about this new offender. I've never heard of anything quite like it before."
Buffy and Angel sat next to each other, staring into each other's eyes. Angel took buffy's hand and mouthed the words I love you to each other. A noise made Buffy jump, her Slayer senses becoming active. "Ah, sweet Slayer. i have come to finish what i started."
Buffy turned around and was face to face with her assailent.

Part 4

Buffy was scared. She knew somehow that this guy had the power to kill her. Angel was frozen in place. Buffy looked at him with a panicky expresion, but Angel could not move. The man must have done something to him. Angel felt trapped in his body. "My name is Kelson, as i'm sure you have been dying to know."
He laughed as he said the word dying. Buffy wondered where Giles was. She needed him. Buffy also felt paralyzed. She could not move, and she could not cry out for Giles. She had never felt so useless. Keslon came closer to Buffy. Her first instinct was to punch him, however, her current situation did not allow that. "Now, Slayer, you will surrender to me. I will have your power. Let's finish what we started earlier. It isn;t as if you have a choice anyways. Before i go ahead with my plans, i feel that i am obligated to explain to you why i am here. I come from a place that has no emotions, no remorse, and no love. None of the things that you silly mortals let stand in the way of your lives. I'm older than time itself. I crave power, and i will let nothing stand in the way of my goals. You, as the Slayer, have more power than any other creature i have encountered in my long, long life. And this power will be mine. I've searched high and low for you. I found you when i heard about the death of the Master."
Buffy felt the invisible grasp on her loosen. She once again had control of her body. Angel was not moving, though. Kelson reached his hand forward and grabbed Buffy's head.
She felt that draining sensation again. Buffy couldn't go through this again. She tried so hard to fight him off. She could do nothing. She felt everything that she had the last time. Only this time, there was no one to save her, so it went further. Buffy saw a light flash and then evrything dissapeared. Buffy was in a dark place. She waited for her eyes to adjust to the darkness. When they did she tried to asses where she was. She could see an entrance to the place she was in. Buffy guessed that she was in some sort of tunnel. She hurried over to the entrance.
It was hard to make her way through the tunnels because of the dark. And then Buffy saw angel standing before her. She ran to him and threw her arms around him. As soon as she touched him, he was gone. He had not really been there after all.
"No! Oh God, Angel come back to me!"
Buffy sobbed hysterically. She slumped down against the wall of the tunnel, buried her face in her hands, and sobbed.

End part 4........FEEDBACK PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Part 5

Angel could see better than Buffy in the dark. His eyes adjusted quick, but he did not know where he was or how he had gotten there. He had to find Buffy. The tunnels were wide in diameter and it seemed to angel that they went on forever. Angel was just happy that he wasn't frozen in place anymore, like he had been in the library.
He hoped that Buffy was alright. He had been sure that she was dead when she had collapsed on the floor. Kelson had done permanent damage to her, of that Angel was sure. He had to find her. He was desperate. He could see someone moving up ahead. Angel ran after that moving shape. "Buffy!" he called.
"I'm not Buffy. Angel i think you should have your eyes checked. Aren't vampires supposed to have superb eyesight?" came a mocking male tone.
The voice belonged to Xander. Angel could now see him clearly.He was standing before him in the tunnel. Xander had a stake in his hand.
"Angel, don't worry, I'm not here to kill you, i'm here to help you. I'm only allowed a few minutes, so let's get this done. Buffy is here too. She is further along in the tunnel than you are, and to find her, you must think of nothing but her. Now hurry up and go. If you fail, and let her die, not only will you be responsible for her death, but mine as well." And then Xander was gone. Angel cleared his mind of all thoughts except for Buffy.
----------------------------------------------------------------- Giles' head was sore. He awoke on the floor of the library, near the checkout desk. There was a strange man sitting by Willow's computer. He looked at Giles and laughed. "Headache? How about an aspirin?"
The man held out his palm and produced two pills. Giles refused them and stared at the man. There was something about him, he couldn't quite place it, but he looked familiar. "Giles, that is your name right? My name is Kelson. Pleased to meet you."
--------------------------------------------------------- Buffy walked through the tunnels, her patience wearing thin. She wanted to go home, be sleeping in her nice warm bed with her mother just down the hall. Buffy knew that she was far away from 1630 Revello Dr.
Buffy stopped. She could hear footsteps. She remained very still and prayed that it was not another fake Angel. She turned around, and there was Angel. He grabbed her and cried out in joy. She held on to him tightly and thanked the gods for him. He was real.

End part 5

ok don't make me beg.....FEEDBACK. please. I love getting feedback from people that don't like the story also, this helps me change the things you don't like come on and humor me.

Part 6

Buffy and Angel had been walking in the tunnel for hours it seemed. A glance at her watch told her they had been down there for an hour. And where was down there anyways? Buffy stopped. She thought she heard something. "What is it? What's wrong?" Angel asked
She waved her hand at him telling him to be quiet. Buffy closed her eyes and listened. She could here water dripping from odd places in the tunnel, but the sound that attracted her attention was something else. It sounded kind of like banging. Sort of like someone was hitting the wall with a pipe.
Buffy looked at Angel. He nodded at her. He could hear it too. The tunnel was one long round pipe-like structure. One could walk only forward or back. They headed back the way they came.

Xander felt lost. He knew that this was no ordinary dream. He could see Angel and Buffy walking in a dark place. It looked like they were in a sewer. No, that couldn't be right. Sewers in Sunnydale were small, almost crawl size. This place was big. Buffy stopped walking and soon Angel did the same. Time seemed to stop as Buffy stood there. Then she said something to Angel and they turned around are started in Xanders direction. Xander sensed the evil near him. The other two should not come this way. Xander wanted to warn them. Before he had the chance, his mom came into his room and woke him up.

Giles did not shake the hand that Kelson held out to him. Instead, he picked up a board lying on the floor near him and threatened the strange man with it. Kelson was not fazed. He held out his hand and the board was no longer in Giles hand. It was on the ceiling. "Ah, poor technique old man," Kelson said, "You of all people should know that it takes alot more than that to stop me."
And then Giles remembered where he knew Kelson from. And that thought made him shudder with horror.

End part 6

I've started school, so the parts will be coming out less frequently. I'm carrying quite a heavy load for a junior. Not that i'm complaining or anything. FEEDBACK por favor. Any kind, comments, questions, suggestions, flames. However, if it is a flame, it better be a good one. P.S. does anyone know how to get over stage fright. I'm taking television production and we produce a school news show. my teacher wants me to be an anchor and im scared out of my mind!!!

Buffy and Angel hadn't walked for long when they came to the entrance of the tunnel. There was a big steel door, but it was locked. Because it was made of heavy steel, Buffy nor Angel could kick it open. They tried together to open it, but nothing they tried worked.
They sat down against the door, exhausted, and thought of ways to get the door open. Each thing they thought of involved the use of soemthing they didn't have, or something that would have brought one or both of them death. they were at the end of their ropes.
Buffy was remembering a dream she had a long time ago. It seemed strange to her that she would remember a dream that had not been to clear to her the night she had it. And then it hit her. She knew where she was and how to get out of here.

*************************************** Giles was sitting in the library staring at Kelson. Kelson was telling Giles all about how he had slain five Slayers and their Watchers. This was not very comforting to Giles. Where the hell were Buffy and Angel? Giles did not remember hearing them leave. In fact, Giles did not remember much except that he had been talking with Buffy and Angel and then he had gone into the stacks, and the next thing he knew, he was lying on the ground. Strange.
Giles had read about this man in the Codex. The Pergamum Codex said that this would be the ultimate test of a Slayer's strength. This man was supposed to be even more evil then the Devil himself. Kelson got what he wanted, which was the power of the Slayer and the death of the Watcher, by draining the Slayer with his hand on the girls head. He placed his hand on top of the cerebrum cortex and chanted silently the ancient words of Salmai. This in turn gave Kelson the power under his hand, if done properly. It had not worked the first time because of Angel's intervention. Giles hoped that, wherever Buffy was, she was with Angel and far, far away from this man.
