Andy Rayerson was driving down the road late at night, when he spotted a little girl on the cornor of the street, standing alone in the wind.

He parked on the cornor of the street and got out to go talk to her, "Hey, Are you okay?" He asked carefully.

Arielle looked up at the man and smiled, "I'm just waiting here for my Mommy and Daddy."

Andy looked back at his car and sighed, "I guess I'll just sit here with you until your parents come back. A little girl shouldn't be alone at this time of night."

The little girl smiled, "That's very kind of you."

"Very kind indeed." Angelus growled, spinning him around.

"Theres My Daddy." Arielle responded sweetly. Buffy hopped down from the top of the roof, her face in her vampire form and Arielle's smile grew, "And There's my mommy."

"Thanks for keeping such a close watch on our girl." Buffy said, "We really appreciate it."

"Can we just kill him already? I'm hungry." Arielle whined.

The man turned around, A red flag had been raised the moment he had been whirled around by the young girls father. Every instinct was yelling for him to run, but He was frozen in his spot, unable to move.

"In a moment Arielle." Angelus snapped.

"What ever happened to the expression, Don't play with your food?" His daughter asked, crossing her arms and jutting out her hip.

"In a moment Arielle!" Buffy cried, glaring at her daughter.

"God Damnit if you wont." Arielle said, attacking the man, latching on to his neck with her tiny fangs.

"I blame you." Angelus said, glaring over at Buffy.

"How is he?" Willow asked, her tone full of concern as she entered Alex's hospital room.

"He's better. It's a lot harder, he can't exactly tell us if he's in pain." Xander responded, looking at his son's sleeping body.

"Where's Anya?" She asked, sitting on the couch across from the bed.

"She went to go get us some coffee. We haven't slept since everything that's happened." He sighed and ran a hand through his hair. "Anya's freaking out, I had to force her to take a shower yesterday. She just won't leave his side."

"And somehow you convinced her to get coffee?" Willow chuckled.

"Well...She really had to pee, So I just convinced her to get some coffee while she was out." He explained. "I just... can't believe That Buffy took him..."

"Xander, That wasn't Buffy. That was the demon who took over her body. She has none of the same feelings towards us as the true Buffy did. Buffy is dead."

Anya burst through the door, carrying her and Xander's coffee. "Oh Hi Willow. Sorry, I didn't know you were here. But considering you've slept in the past two days, You don't exactly need it."

"Anya, She cares about Alex just as much as we do-" Xander started.

"No! No she doesn't! She wasn't there! She didnt watch! Were his parents Xander! Willow can't understand!" Anya cried out. "You know, Just drink your damn coffee Xander."

Their was a russling of sheets, signaling Alex waking up. Anya rushed over, and took his hand.

"Hey buddy." Xander said softly, going to stand behind Anya.

Willow smiled and exited the room,feeling as if It was a special family moment.
