I woke up before dad did and I went into his backyard which had a bit of a grassy area. I had a tank top on and black leather pants. I tossed off my duster and put it by my other stuff. I started doing the Tai Chi that Angel had taught me. I closed my eyes and relaxed a bit before opening them again and paying attention to the noise of the world around me which comforted me.

Jack woke up and saw Buffy's door open. She wasn't in there so he went downstairs and saw through a window her in the backyard doing some ancient thing -the name slipping his name. He had seen people doing it on tv and they said that it took immense concentration and it helped relieve stress. He thought that his daughter was doing it pretty impressively. Then his cell rang and he answered it before Buffy could hear it.

"O'Neill...Hey General...Yeah we're both up," Jack was still watching Buffy. "Sorry what was that?"

"O'Neill what has you so preoccupied?" the general demanded.

"What's that Japanese thing that they do to relax and they move their arms and body in this certain way?" Jack asked giving the best explanation he could.

"Tai Chi?" The general asked.

"Yeah. Buffy's doing that. Pretty well too," Jack said impressed.

"Really?" the general asked also sounding impressed.

"Yeah. Um What did you want again?" Jack asked.

"I want SG-1 to take it's new member with you to PF3-829," General said.

"Have we been there before?" Jack asked.

"No. Report here in 1 hour," General said then hung up.

I heard the back door openly and I whipped around embarrassed if I got caught by dad.

"We got orders. Wanna go into space?" Dad smirked.

"Sure," I said putting on my duster which was one of Angel's smaller ones I stole.

I was wearing a blood red tank with the Necklace and Ring that Angel gave me.

"You realize you won't be able to wear that when we're not here. You'll have to wear a standard uniform thing," Dad said.

"Come here," I said leading him into my room.

I took out my one duffel bag that I had weapons in.

"I wear a sward and I can do damage with that. I carry knives and I'll wear a crossbow if it makes you happy. Guns and me......I've only used a Rocket Launcher we borrowed from the army base but we'll talk about that later. I'm more hand to hand and I can dodge lotsa things," I said. "Don't worry about me."

I grabbed the stuff and the only thing visible was the crossbow.

"Okay," He said, "I trust you. You get hurt, you'll get yelled at."

"Okay," I said. "Let's get going."

As we walked out Dad asked, "Where'd you get the duster and the Jewelry?"

"Angel," I answered.

"Looks good," He answered then we started driving off.

"You need some protection besides a crossbow," Daniel said.

"I got plenty. You just can't see it," I said as we walked into the room that held the Stargate. "Damn. Someone must have been really bored or really drunk when they thought this thing up. Either that or they were a geek."

That got a few smiles. The Stargate started up and the water stuff flew out and then it was all bubbly. We walked up the ramp and paused before hand.

"How come Riley has to come?" I whined.

"Too late for that," Dad said and then we waked in.

I heard Hammond say faintly as we walked though, "This will be interesting."

Then we appeared in some building that was stone and had clinging heard distantly in the background.

"Oh shit," I said and the group turned to me. "I know where we are."

"And that would be?" Riley asked not amused.

"In other words hell. I've been here," I said looking around then a familiar face walked in.

He looked at me and glared. I noticed a faint scar on his eye.

"Who woulda thought the gang banger would survive the stab wound and the fall. Well I guess I'll just have to kick your ass and escape again."

"We're going to have a talk on what you were doing in hell," Dad said and I silently cursed.

More of the workers here came in and we took them out. Following the passage way I came to a familiar open area. The pole was still in the middle and I had a memory pop into my head.

Lily runs off to lead the group out. I see two guards coming for them and leads them away at a run. I wind around through the slaves still blindly working away. The guards are big and bulky compared to my small figure darting through the maze, but they manage to keep up. I notice a pole jutting out of the floor and grab onto it, swinging around once and knocking one of the guards out with an aerial side kick. I lets go of the pole and begin to run again.

The faint memory of the wound I had in my head made my head ache all over again. A group came in and I noticed the axe which also was familiar from those 4 months ago.

"Stumpy," I smirked at the familiar guy who I sliced a bit and noticed a bit of his chest missing.

"Let's get this started," Dad said and the fight began.

I took out a sward and started fighting. When the sward was tossed the only one who fought me was Stumpy.

"Vengeance is a bitch," I said dodging his blade. "But I'm the one who's gonna win."

I grabbed the hilt of my sward as I rolled on the ground.

"Again," I said then the fight between Stumpy and I grew more intense.

The noise clattered down, but more came. Deja vou.

Another guard comes up to the edge of the platform holding a battle-ax with a curved blade. He looks at the fighting for a moment, then moves to jump up onto the platform.

Ken: Humans don't fight back.

The guard on the platform tries to pound My head with his club, but I hold my hammer high, blocking his attack and making him drop his weapon.

Ken: (enraged) Humans don't fight back!

"You!" I heard Ken yell.

"Does everyone have to know me," I groaned as I fought.

"You won't let them escape again! Kill them all!" Ken Yelled.

"Like that worked last time jackass," I said killing Stumpy finally.

"Let's get outta here," I heard Carter yell.

"Give me 5 minutes!" I yelled taking off down another hallway despite the yells of my dad.

I sliced along the way until I reached the reformed pool of black goo. I saw some newbies getting led down the hallway near the elevator and a guard doing the same thing that happened while I was there. I knocked him out.

"Anyone want out?" I said and everyone followed as I lifted the people up.

I saw Teal'c come over as the last person went through and the pool closed.

"We need to leave Buffy O'Neill," Teal'c said.

"Call me Buffy," I said as we ran. "Or if you want to stick to the title call me Asticke. It's my title."

"Are you saying that you're the warrior?" Teal'c asked as we reached the group standing in front of the Stargate where Daniel was typing in the destination.

"I was reading a book while researching and that's what it said I was. I noticed the was Jaffa in there and it said the legend. So then Yes to answer your question," I said as Daniel walked through, then we followed.

When we were back in the Stargate room Teal'c Turned to me.

"It is a great honor," He said

"Right back at ya," I said then my dad turned to me.

"Explanation," He said his voice a bit strained.

"I was doing my job. I had to find this guy and then I accidentally went through the pool that led there," Then at his look I said quickly, "But the important part is I'm not there and that I got a buncha people out. Right?"

"You'll be the death of me," He muttered.

"No shocker there," Riley said.

"You know if Spike ever shows up I hope he kicks you're a-" I started until Hammond cut us off.

"Debriefing in 10 minutes."

Then as they walked out.

"Well if the Master ever shows up I hope he kick's your ass," Riley shot back.

"I knew you stooped low, but that's a new one," I said shooting daggers. "You better watch it Cardboard or else you never know what's going to come up and if I can save you or not."

"I'm sure the council would be thrilled to hear that. Or even Giles," Riley said.

I had enough. I decked him a good one square in the chin.

"Good luck," I smirked then walked into the briefing room.

I had a laptop that dad never used and I was checking my email.

To:

From:

Hey Buffy! We're a little upset on how you said goodbye but I get it. Xander wants your address so he can send you some Twinkies. The new Slayer came yesterday and her name's Faith. She's okay but she's not you. We miss you. Even Giles said so!! Mr. No emotion said he did. And even Cordelia said so!! That's scary. Oz says hi in his normal talk. He's all wolfy right now so I'm writing this on watch.

Giles is worried about a potential apocalypse. We got the heads up from another one of those famous Prophesies. Nothing you need to worry about. I'll send you a copy of it next email when I get it. I got to go. Faith just came to take over.

Miss you lots,

Wicca Witch of the West.

"Nice people," Dad said from behind me.

I had sensed him reading it and I didn't mind.

"Yeah," I said then started the reply.

To:

From:

Wills!

Okay I need the info on the prophecy apocalypse thing cos dreams are kickin' in with a vengeance. Don't know exactly of what but maybe they're about the same thing.

"Dreams??" Dad asked.

"I get slayer dreams. A heads up," I answered

Remember how I told you about Lily and the diner while I was in Los Angeles? Yeah I went back there yesterday. Don't flip out and tell Giles cos even if he figures out how to email me I'll feel the scolding. An pissed off English watcher yelling at you isn't fun and we know that. You and Xan holding up okay? Even more importantly how's things with you and Oz? Good to know you are keeping good care of his Wolfie-ness.

"Wolf?" Dad asked.

"Werewolf. His baby cousin bit him," I explained.

"Weird group of friends," Dad said.

You're holding something back I can feel it. Next email better have full details.

Miss ya too,

Sunnyhell Snyder Hater, the slayer

"You guys are weird," Dad said.

"Without a doubt," I said smirking as I sent it.

The doorbell rang and I got up and answered it. General Hammond and Carter were standing there. Then the other two ran up.

"Dad. Fang gang is here," I said letting them come in and Dad walked over with a look on his face, "Hey you called my friends weird."

"You agreed," He said.

"Doesn't mean you can say that," I smirked sitting at the computer which said new message.

Weird.

"Wills replied fast," I muttered but Dad heard me.

The computer was on the desk by the couch where dad was sitting with his colleagues around him. I opened the email a bit worried.

To:

From:

Buffy we got problems. Turns out we have...a visitor. Make sure you're sitting. Buffy, Angel is back.

My eyes widened and My breath caught in my throat as I read on.

He has his soul back like you said, but he's wild. Giles said while it's only been 4 months here it's been 400 years for him in hell. Giles said not to tell you yet, but we all think you deserve to know.

Buffster- this is Xander. Look I know I don't like dead boy but I know you care for him so listen to me when I say this. Forget G-Man. You're the only one who can help Angel, and we all know it. So if you can't come back then know that we'll take care of him for you as much as we can.

Miss ya, luv ya, really wanna hug ya,

Xander and Willow.

I sat there in silence comprehending what to do next.

"Shit," I said and the other's silenced.

It was Angel, not Angelus. Angel was just changed a bit from hell. Yah that's right. The hell I SENT HIM TO. If Xander said forget what Giles said then he must be bad.

"Buffy everything okay?" Dad asked worried.

"I need to go back to Sunnydale," I said my voice a bit strained.

"What's wrong?" Carter asked.

"Angel's back. I need to go there," I said standing.

"Get packed," Dad said.

And I went into my room and packed a few outfits and then a few weapons. When I walked out everyone was standing.

"I was SG-1 to accompany you. Seeing as you all had a difficult time yesterday, consider this your time off I was trying to get you to take," Hammond said.

"Thank you," I said.
