Secrets Between Lovers
Disclaimers: JOSS OWNS IT ALL! I'm crying a little.
Summery: After Faith, Xander, Willow, and a bunch of potential slayers, turned slayer, show up to help fight the battle in the ally, along side Angel, Gunn, Illyrea, and Spike secrets from both side come out. (Set after the final episode of Angel) MASIVE SPUFFY!
"Any terms of a plan" Spike said glancing over how few fighters they had on there side.
"We fight" Angel said, Spike looked at him funny because his voice showed no sign of fear, he on the other hand was terrified. He already died once, he wasn't about to go through it again.
"Bit more specific" Spike said. Angel peered at him from the corner of his eye; he could hear Spike's breathing speed up, Angel could almost imagine his hart rate increasing, if his hart could beat. He knew his Childe was scared.
"Well personally, I kind 'a want to slay the dragon" Angel said starring at the winged beast flying over their tiny army. "Let's go to work" Angel whispered as he charged for the closest demon, his companions fallowed.
Minutes pasted, blood was shed on both sides of the battle. Angel, Spike, and Illyrea could sense that Gunn's fate was not going to end well.
"We require more fighters" Illyrea said smashing a demons scull that had lunged toward Gunn. Just then, over twenty demons leaped on her.
Gunn leaned agents a wall clutching his arm witch he knew was broken. "Hell, we'll take anything right about now" he yelled over the continuous screaming of demons.
"What we need is a slayer" Spike said snapping the neck of yet another demon.
Just as he finished speaking, as if on cue, Faith jumped in front of him, smashing into the ground, the scull of a demon that had been charging for him.
"Well, I'm no Buffy, but I think I can help a little, plus I brought some desperately needed reinforcements" She said turning to the fence.
Suddenly, what seemed like fifty potential slayers jumped over the fence. Along with them was Xander who had a new blue eye patch and had a really cool red and yellow axe in his hands and Willow who had fire balls floating above her hands.
"You know, I'm glade that you all came to help us, but this probable wont end well for me" Spike said.
"We'll deal with you latter" Willow said giving him an evil look. She through a fire ball at the dragon witch burst into a dust cloud in seconds.
"Aw! I wanted to kill the dragon" Angel pouted.
"Buffy wasn't kidding when she said that you've started acting like your twelve" Xander said looking at Angel in disgust.
The fighting continued, luckily, the giant demon stayed back long enough for them to kill all the other demons and regroup. Everyone was exhausted; only about five slayers had perished in the fight.
They decided that they would all lunge for the giant at the same time, hoping to distract him. They tried this and succeeded, the giant was a lot easier to kill then any one thought, he may have been huge, but lacked the brains to survive in battle.
The ally was filled with dead bodies and blood. They all walked back to a safe house that Gunn and Angel had found days before. It uses to be a storage facility for a hospital and a lot of stuff was left behind. There was food, beds, and every thing they needed to clean there wounds.
Illyrea helped Gunn bandage up his broken arm as Angel and Spike helped carry stuff to Willow, Faith, and Xander who where patching up injured slayers.
When Spike handed some rubbing alcohol to Willow she grabbed his arm and pulled him down so only he could hear what she had to say "We really need to talk, soon!" she whispered and quickly let go of his arm so no one would notice that she had said anything.
Latter that night when everyone was a sleep, Willow woke Xander, Faith, Angel, and Spike up and pulled them outside to talk. They all just stood there staring at each other, the sky, and the ground, thinking of what to say.
"So… why wasn't Buffy here" Angel brook the silence. Xander, Willow and Faith glanced back and forth at one another not sure how to start a very long, shocking story.
"Off with the Immortal…" Spike said a little jealous.
"Oh, you didn't know" Faith said with a sarcastic look on her face.
"She was just gaining E's… the Immortal's trust" Xander added.
"Now he's got a nickname" Angel said. Spike stared at him like he was an idiot.
"I seem to recall how after a couple hundred years, your name changed to Angel… you've got a nickname you git" Spike said.
"Standing up for him now" Angel turned toward his long time rival.
"No!" Spike said as he thought about what he just said "O.K., yes I did, disregard everything I just said" Spike quickly added.
"Getting back to Buffy and the Immortal…" Faith said as she glanced back over at Xander.
"Oh right… where was I?" Xander said regaining his thoughts.
"Buffy, gaining the trust of the Immortal" Angel said thinking back to the time that Spike and him went to Rome and saw them dancing together.
"Oh yes… well, she killed him… about two months ago" Xander finished.
"Oh well that's a relief, at least we don't have to worry about Buffy being with anyone" Angel said patting Spike on the shoulder.
Spike gave him a hateful look, "not as controlling as you are… couldn't care less if pets out with other guys" Spike bushed off the area of his shoulder where Angel had touched it, as if brushing off germs.
"Did you just call Buffy, pet?" Xander asked the question on everyone's mind.
"You just called the Immortal 'E'… what's the difference" Spike said.
"Ok, as amusing as this conversation is… can we please get back to the reason I pulled you out here" Willow finally spoke.
"We're all ears Will" Angel said crossing his arms.
"Where the hell did you get that from…" Spike looked over at Angel.
"My god, do you two always have to be fighting, and your always fighting over the stupidest things… you guys are hopeless… can you try and stay on topic for five minutes!" Willow interrupted.
"Right, Sorry…" Spike said leaning agents the wall behind him. Willow just stared at them; she had forgotten what she had to say.
"Uh… Will" Xander said trying to get her attention.
"I'm sorry, it's just these idiots made me totally lose my train of thought" she said looking over at Faith to finish what she was saying before she was so ruddily interrupted.
"Well, we've covered the whole Immortal thing… what else is there?" Faith looked back at Willow.
"What else is there!" Xander started to yell "Have you forgotten the whole reason we came to help them" he said pointing to Spike and Angel.
"Oh yeah… Buffy's little secret…" Faith laughed.
"What secret…Buffy has a secret… and why did you come to help us, on that topic, how did you know where we where" Angel said curious. Willow looked over at Spike with a worried look on here face.
"What is it, is Buffy alright?" Spike knew something was wrong. Willow looked away from him, Xander did the same.
"Fine, if you wimps won't tell him I will" Faith said anxious.
"Tell me what?" Spike asked looking at Willow.
"Your sweetheart, Buffy… the reason she didn't come to help you guys…" Faith said sarcastically
"Faith… let me tell them, it'll be easier" Willow interrupted.
"Willow, tell me what the hell is going on… and I don't want to be a hesitant about it, I want an answer and I want it now!" Spike said, he thought that the worse had happened, that Buffy was dead.
"Alright, but at least let me tell you the whole story, from when you… supposedly died" Willow said, Spike rolled his eyes but then nodded his head in approval.
"After Andrew came back form getting that deranged slayer… he told Dawn and me about you still being alive… Dawn, of course, couldn't keep her mouth shut and told Xander and Faith, well, one night the five of us where talking about how you could have possible survived, Buffy overheard the conversation…" Willow said glancing back and forth at Xander and Faith.
"So now she pissed at Spike for not coming back to her and refuses to even think about the two of us" Angel said.
"No, that's not it at all" Xander said defending his friend.
"Then why the bloody hell didn't she come and help us" Spike said ticked off that Andrew broke his promise.
"Because she was in the hospital you moron" Faith screamed.
"What" Angel and Spike said concerned.
"What's wrong" Angel added.
"What happened" Spike said.
"Nothing bad" Willow said trying to calm them down.
"She's in the hospital Will, what couldn't be bad" Spike yelled. Just then, Xander's cell phone rang.
"Hello, hold on… Its Giles, he wants to talk to you" he said handing the phone to Willow.
"Hello… yeah we found them… what… oh my god, don't worry Giles we'll be right there" Willow said hanging up the phone and handing it back to Xander.
"You want to find out why Buffy is in the hospital?" Willow asked as both Spike and Angel nodded their heads yes. "Then your coming with us" she looked at Xander "wake every one up, we're leaving" Willow said as she walked inside, followed by Xander and Faith.
Spike and Angel looked at each other "This'll be real fun" Spike said walking inside.
"Loads and loads of fun" Angel said fallowing him.
