Xander walks into the Magic Shop with an enormous smile on his face. " Well how was your date with Dr. Brad?" Asked Buffy.

" Wonderful" " We had a really good time." Said Xander jumping up on the counter to set.

"We went to dinner then went back to my place."

" Oh really back to your place?" Teased Buffy.

" Yep!"

" Did you guys watch TV?"

"Yep!"

" Drink some beer?"

" Yep!"

" Have sex?"

" Yep!"

" Children please." Cried Giles taking out his glasses to give them a good cleaning.

"And he said he can stop by here later to see me and meet my friends."Willow walks into the room from the back storage room with a book in her hand. "Here Giles is that book you asked for." "What are you looking for?"

"A prophesy about this warrior who fights the forces of evil and what not; the usual."

Giles replies while bearing is head into the book. "Here it is." " I have to make a phone call"

"Who are you calling G-man?"

" Wesley and Angel"

"Why?" Asked Buffy

"They called me because I have this book and Cordelia had a vision about this prophesy and they wanted me to find it for them.Giles walks over to the phone and calls Wesley and Angel.

" Angel Investigations" " We help the helpless." " How can I help you?"

Cordelia can I speak to Wesley or Angel please; its Giles?"

"Yes they have been waiting for your call." "Angel has been pacing and being broader then usual.

Cordelia handed the phone to Angel. " Giles did you find it?"

" Yes I have and it don't look good."

"Damn I was afraid of that."

"Ok Giles read it to me."

Three warriors, one-steps forward takes to battle.
Two said warriors back the first.
Beware of false tongue and lies the foe will weave.
The foe walks a false line to be an ally.
The first warrior cannot shield his heart.
Three warriors will fall but not in parish but to hell.

A forth warrior will soon return an old enemy but a true love.
Will come back to save his heart but to late for them and to late for
him.
His soul will tell the secrets to hate; his blood will seal their
fate.
He was born in light; born in night.
He will born once more on a full blood rise.
Father hands he will hold and his blessing will be told
Father bonds two warriors to sun and moon.

"What do you make of it Giles?"

" Not sure Angel but I have a good idea."

"We need to find out who the warriors are but I think the last verse is about you.

" The last part about the being born in light and then again in dark; Well that is about a vampire and it talks about a soul so it must be you."

"But the father part I'm really not sure."

" I know what it means Giles."

"What?"

"I need to find Spike." "He is the one in the prophecy."

"One of them at least we still need to find three more."

"Well I will send you a copy and have Wesley take a look at it and tell me what he thinks." "We will get it figured out Angel." "Do you any idea where Spike is?"

" No, but I know some people who will find out and they will bring him to me."

"Good if there is anything else I can do for you let me know."

"I will Giles tell Buffy and the others I said hi."

"Sure will"

"Bye"

"Bye"

Giles hangs up the phone and looks at the young adults that he has grown to love.

" We heard honey, what do you want us to do?" Asked Buffy standing up and walking over to Giles. Giles opens his arms and lets Buffy in for a tight hug. "We just wait and see I guess." " So until then patrol as usual."

"Ok we can do that but if you want help with the research just yell." Said Buffy

" Oh ya Willow; Xander had a real good time on his date last night."

" Oh that's great Xander what did you guys all do."

" Well we umm."

Buffy interrupting Xander said, " They went back to Xanders place."

"Oh!"

" They watched TV."

" Oh!"

" They had beer."

" Oh!"

" And then they had sex."

" Oh dear!"

Willow turns to Xander who has a huge grin on his face and tells Willow. " Mind blowing sex; very intense."

Willow giggles and walks over to Xander to place a small kiss on his cheek.

" Good for you Xander." " I'm glad I'm not the only one who got lucky."

" You too!" Cried Xander " That's cool."

" Hey guys, I got some too!"

" Oh God please; must you guys talk about this here." Cried Giles Buffy walking over to Giles and runs her hands up his chest.

" Didn't I hear you cry for God last night and beg me please too."Giles hangs his head down to rest it on Buffy head and tucks her under his chin in a tender embrace. " Yes you did luv and if I remember the same goes for you."

Giles puts a finger under her chin and lifts her head up to place a chaste kiss oh her lips.

" Love you"

" Love you Rupe"

They all turn towards the door when they hear someone walk in. " Hi I'm looking for Xander." " Hi Brad come in I want to meet the gang." Brad walks in to the shop and Xander jumps off the counter to meet him half way. Xander grabs the front of Brads jacket and pulls him in to a hug and then lowers his head to Brads and places a small kiss on his lips. Xander turns back to his friends and pulls Brad in front of him and rap his arms around him. "Brad this is Giles the shops owner and Buffys watcher and this is Buffy the slayer and last but not least this is Willow. Brad walks to each of them in turn and shakes their hands and tells them how it was nice to meet them. " So Brad you're a doctor?" " Yes I just moved here form Connecticut a small town you probley never heard of it." "My sister and her husband live here and they told me about a position opening."

" My sister is also a doctor." " They have two boys and I'm living with them till I find a house to buy."

" Cool have you had any luck finding many houses?" Asked Buffy

" Not really." " I can't seem to find the house I want."

Xander lost in thought * Connecticut I thought he said Colorado.I might have heard wrong.I bet I did..I mean I was too busy staring at his lips and thinking how they felt against mine.oh ya..I `m in lust..wait someone asked me a question*

" Oh sorry what?"

" Earth to Xander I said if you wanted you can bug off patrolling if you and Brad have other plans." Said Buffy.

" Oh no I can just go I know how important this is I can just see you tomorrow."

" Oh tomorrow is no good I'm on duty at the hospital and the next day too."

Buffy seeing the disappointed look on Xanders fallen face wanted to put the smile back on her friends face. " Brad if you want you can go with, we can watch your back."

" Oh really that would be great I'm stay out of the way and I would like to see all of you in action." With a dazzling smile.

" Ok lets get going." Said Buffy grabbing stakes and walking out the door.

Xander holding Brads hand leads him out but not before Giles catches a quick glance at Brads satisfying smirk as he follows Xander out the door. Giles taking his glasses of to polish them tilts his head to the side in deep thought them shrugs his shoulders and puts his glasses back on. Walking back to the table to settle down for a long night of research because he does like the way his thoughts are running. If the prophecy was right he had a bad gut feeling that it was in reference to his young friends.

" Brad just stay close and you will be safe." " Here is a stake if a vampire charges you just ram that in to is heart." Buffy said to Brad handing him a stake.

" Here point this at them too and pull the trigger." Willow giving Brad a water pistol.

Xander leans into Brad and whispers into his ear. " Holy water"" Oh!"

They slowly stalked the cemetery and two others but with no luck at finding any vampires.

" Lets call it a night I'm tired and just want to take a bath and crawl in to bed." Said Buffy

"Sounds like a plan." Said Xander

The girls waved bye to Xander and Brad as they started to walk home. "I really liked your friends; they seemed really nice." " So you said Buffy is the slayer."

" Ya, she is like the chosen one and all." " She is really strong with like fast healing powers and stuff."

" So does she just fight vamps?" Asked Brad.

" And demons." " But you have to understand they aren't the only evil in the world.

" I know some demons that are ok and some that aren't and that goes for some humans."

" So some are ok?"

" Ya kinda."

" I know a vampire and he was cursed with a soul and now he saves people that need help."

" A soul?"

" Ya, he snacked on a gypsy girl and her family didn't like it to well so they cursed him."

" So he is like a friend."

" Ya, he is ok now that we buried the hatchet and got past our differences." Said Xander.

" So are there others that are ok?"

" Ya there's Clem he is pretty cool." " He is a demon with huge floppy ears and when ever I'm bored I go over to his place and play poker with him and some of his friends."

" Since Spike left they needed another player so I said what the hell, nothing better to do."

" Spike?"

" Oh ya then theres Spike."

" And who is he?" " A vampire, demon or what?"

" Spike is well Spike." Said Xander shrugging his shoulder trying to dodge the question.

Xander didn't really want Brad to know about Spike he didn't know why he just had this feeling deep inside that told him not to and talking about it wasn't a good idea just for the simple fact is you don't tell the current boyfriend about the guy you are in love with specially if he isn't that guy. No he didn't have warm fuzzy feelings for Brad not yet any way but he felt that he could very easy and that left him confused. Was he ready to let go of Spike and move on? Was he ready to face reality that Spike might never come back and he would never see him again? And that left him sick to his stomach and his heart.

All he wanted was for Spike to come home. But this wasn't Spikes home this wasn't his anything and surely not with him. He told himself over and over again in his mind that even if he did come home it was never for him; never him. And with that last thought he turned to Brad and took his hand in his and gave him a small sad smile.

" Spike is a friend like the vampire with the soul.Angel.that's all."

" Oh" " Does he have a soul too?"

" No"

" Come inside?" Asked Xander nodding his head to his apartment. Realizing they were standing outside his apartment.

" Come in and stay the night with me?"

" Let me make love to you Brad." Whispered Xander as he pulled him towards him. Brushing his lips a crossed Brads lips and letting his tongue come out to play running it along Brad's lower lips.

" Yes" Answered Brad in a lust filled groan.

Xander grabbing Brads hand leading him to his apartment. Trying to fill a hole in his heart and in the pit of his soul. He knew that this was not going to work he was just using Brad like he did last time they had sex but he was numb. Numb to feeling and to the truth. Spike was never coming back. And it was to late to tell him that he loved him to late to say he was sorry for every mean thing he said to Spike. So he was going to throw his very existence in to trying to love Brad and forget all about Spike. He thought it couldn't be to hard..right?

Part 8:

Closing the door behind him Xander reaches out and grabs Brad by the back of his jacket clutching the material in a tight fist he pulls him back to press firmly to him wrapping his arms around him in a heated embrace.

" Need you now!"

" Take your clothes off!" Growled Xander through clenched teeth.

" Do you want to go to the bedroom?" Asked Brad feeling nervous at Xanders fierce growl.

" No here now...can't wait.want you..need you.naked..now.now!" " Take them off Brad or I cut them off." Hissing the last part in Brads ear.Brad throwing his head back to rest on Xanders shoulder. " Oh god yes"Brad feeling the hard cock of his lover pressing in to his ass.

Bucking back in to the swollen cock moaning at the friction it's causing even with the jeans that is separating them. Xander not taking much more of the dry fucking he's doing to Brad's ass decides to take matters in to his own hands. He lets his hands roam over Brad's chest letting them taunt over his erected nipples leaving them hard and tender to the touch. Moving his hands down to his waist pulling his shirt out from his jeans untucking them so he can put his hands up under to feel Brads hot skin. He runs his hands up his arms till he gets to Brads shoulders and than he lets them slide over his chest once more till he grabs the front of his jacket. Holding each side of the unzipped jacket he takes it off of Brad to lets it fall to the floor. Wrapping his arms around Brad he leans forward and starts to kiss the back of Brads neck. Kissing, licking, nibbling, and laying love bites on his neck then he raises his head and whispers close to his ear. " I asked you to undress."

Xander grabs the front of his shirt and gives it a hard tug and the buttons pop and fly around the room to hit the floor and roll through out the apartment. He grabs Brad and turns him around grabbing the back of his head and fisting his hair hard he kisses him with a over powering force of domineering battle of lips and tongue. Brad moaning and thrusting his swollen cock in to Xanders thigh.

" Oh god Xan I'm going to cum."

Xander pushing Brad into the wall forcing is tongue into his mouth probing it to the back making it slide down Brads throat. Pulling it out till he reached his tongue letting it slide a crossed Brads. Running the tip over his teeth and along the roof of his mouth mapping it out and savoring the feel and taste that is pure Brads.

Honey..he tastes like sweet honey. Almost pure, almost heaven, he could lose himself in this mouth. It would take hours to find his way out. Maybe even days. Maybe if he let himself feel it might take months or even years. Yes feel, feel loved, cherished, supported, protected and maybe even wanted. But right now all he wanted was to feel his throbbing stiff member sliding in and out of Brad's ass.

Reaching for Brad he lets his hand wonder down to his pants to take them off. When he gets them down past his thighs he drops to his knees and takes Brad cock into his mouth running his tongue over the wet slit on the tip. Brad thrusting his hips forward fucking Xanders mouth. Xander rolling his tongue round the head and then down the shaft savoring the velvet like skin gliding over his tongue. He wraps his mouth around the hard member and drops his head down swallowing the entire length letting it slide down his throat. Brad grabs the back of Xanders head and pivots his cock in and out with violent strokes throwing his head back hitting it on the wall behind him.

Xander reaching under and grabbing his balls and rolling them in his hands kneading them till he feels them draw up hard to Brads warm body. Brads body shimmering intensely to the orgasm that is flowing through his body and pumping through his stiff shaft to explode in Xanders mouth coating his tongue in a thick blanket of warm seed.

Brad feeling his legs start to buckle grabs Xander and pulls him up to his waiting lips were he devours him in a hot embrace. Tongues lavishing in the moment. Hands roaming over hot, hard bodies. Brad pulls away and whispers to Xander that he wants to do the same; he wants to feel him in his mouth and taste him.

Xander undoing his pants and letting them fall reaches in to Brad and gives him another heated kiss before Brad pulls away and starts to move down the length of Xanders body to take him in to his mouth in a single swallow his shaft disappears into Brads hot, wet mouth. Brad bobbing his head up and down the swollen shaft fast and frantically. Xander comes with a howl echoing through out the apartment and leaving his dazed. Brad stands up and Xander pulls him to his chest were he brings his arms around him and hugs him feverishly.

" Oh god that was intense." " My legs are like jelly." " You know like being liquefied."Says Brad in a small voice of wonder.

" Mmm. lets go to the bed now..tired.need sleep."

Xander not really knowing what Brad was saying he just knew that he was tired with working days and school at night then with the late night patrols he was about to fall over. And yes this was new to him he never gave anyone a blow job or even had it done to him or even what they did the other night but ya it felt good even wonderful and tonight was just as exciting but right now he wanted to sleep he felt like he could drop.

" Stay with me." " Stay the night." Asked Xander placing chaste kisses on Brad's neck causing him to shiver.

" Yes I would like that." Brad really meaning it.

They walk in to the bedroom where they undress down to their boxers and climb into bed. Spooning their bodies pressing together in shared comfort. Xander pressed hard against Brads back his arm wrapped around his cheat holding him protectively.

" Good night baby." Whispers Xander into the dark.

" Goodnight luv."

Xander trembles at the endearment remembering it from another time and place when it was passed so easily through someone else's lips and not meaning a thing.

Xander slipping into a deep slumber dreaming of dreams that will never come true because he was to scared to let them become a reality, to scared to tell him that he loved him above all others. But now that he had found Brad he can start anew and he can hopefully put the past to rest and explore these new found feelings that Brad is beginning to raise in him.

Brad laying awake till he heard Xanders even breathing slipped from the bed and walked to the living room. Pulling out his cell phone and dialing a number from memory.

" Hello.ya..I got it..I'll put the listening devices in his apartment and also the store.in the slayers house and the witch.ok..will take work.but I can do it..ya he totally is gone..don't know where..HE.changed the subject when I brought up his name.try bringing it up with the witch and slayer.ok...don't worry everything is going smoothly.ya I know.I'm good..if Xander Harris becomes a problem kill him?..not to worry I will handle everything.. and the others..fine.bye..

Brad hanging the phone up and putting it back in his pocket walks back to the bedroom and slips quietly back in to bed letting Xander rap his arms around him and mumble tiredly. " Where did you go?"

" Bathroom and to get a drink."

"Mmm I like this you are warm and feel good." " A guy could get used to this."

" I know Xan I could definitely get used to this you holding me while I sleep.mmm..ya..feel good."

Xander kisses Brads shoulder blade and moves them to his back." Mmm real good.night Brad.I'm glad you are staying..looking forward to seeing you when I wake."

" Me too.. night Xan."

"Night"

Part 9:

Time seemed to pass quickly for Xander. Fall turned to winter and Christmas came and went then spring arrived with flowers blooming and the air turning sweet with their fragrance. Brad and Xander grow closer with each passing day. Every spare minute was spent together.

Xander started college full time and he asked Brad to move in with him. They were the perfect couple they appeared to be so in love with each other. Willow and Trent Payton found an apartment close to the high school where Willow will start teaching in the fall. Buffy got an engagement ring last Christmas from Giles and they are planning on a summer wedding. They are all excited for her and they are helping them plan for the upcoming nuptials. They where in constant contact with Angel and the L.A. crew even coming together to research the prophecy. It left them in total confusion; time seemed to pass and evil never showed itself and neither did the four warriors that it mentioned. Was it just another bogus prophecy? Giles didn't think so and neither did Angel they both thought it would soon come to pass and with it death. They were very worried but they never let the others know. Angel searched everywhere for Spike he had people looking for him but he was nowhere to be found. He would get a good lead and hop on a plane to check it out but he always come up empty handed. Spike either had left days before or it wasn't him.

Angel told the others that he wasn't going to give up; he would find him and bring his rebellious childe home. Xander getting his hopes up every time he heard that Angel hopped a plane to a place unknown to check the latest Spike spotting that he came to the decision that Spike wasn't coming home, he didn't want to be found. So knowing this he started to love another. And this time he was going to let him know just where his love laid.

On a boring Friday night Xander and Brad were lying in bed after a night of making love and lots of cuddling afterwards. Wrapped in Brads arms Xander had his head resting on Brads chest running his hand slowly a cross Brads stomach.

" Do you have to go to L.A.?" " Don't go please stay here and we can spend the weekend in bed and cuddle." Pleaded Xander trying to get Brad to stay. " I have to Xander my brother needs me." " You know that Xan we talked about it."

" Ya but it doesn't mean that I have to like it."

" I'm not going to get in to this with you Xan you know that my family will not like this thing we have between us."

" This thing..Brad..this thing!"

" This thing we have together is you and me living together and..damn!"

Xander getting up from the bed and grabbing his jeans. Putting them on in jerky movement his body shaking in anger. Leaving them unbuttoned he turns to Brad and stared at him with a hard glare; shakes his head.

" Brad" " Why are you here."

" What do you mean Xander?"

" Why are you here.with me.living with me?"

" Because I want to."

" Then why don't you tell your family that you are living with a guy?"

" And not just a guy Brad but your lover."

" Your own sister doesn't even know and she lives here in Sunnydale."

" Do you know I have never even met her?"

" Yes I know." Whispered Brad

" Fuck Brad your brother calls and you go running to L.A."

" He just snaps his fingers and you help him in what ever trouble he got himself into."

" What it is it this week Brad.drinking..drugs.gambling.jail?"

" He is getting kicked out of his apartment because he hasn't paid his rent."

" You know he lost his job at the law firm."

" He is having a tough time and he will pull through it."

" He has never been the same since our mom died."

" He had seen her get killed."

" I know baby but that was a long time ago and he needs to let it go and move on and end the road of destruction he is on."

" Well Xander it is kind of hard ok."

" He saw her killer and he just kicked him down like a dog while he just killed her no reason behind the killing he just did it."

" My mom left the house about nine that night to get my brother from a friends house because she didn't want him to walk home after dark; he was fifteen when it happened, they decided to stop for ice cream at the local grocery store that was near our house, you know to bring some home for the rest of us, my mom was like that she felt bad because my brother was able to do things that the rest of us couldn't cuz he was older and he got to stay at a friends house late and we couldn't. Hell my bedtime was at nine. So she wanted things to always be fair. She was so beautiful and still looked so young. They left the store and was walking back to the car when my mothers killer just walked right up to them and grabbed my brother by his throat lifting him up off the ground, he told my mom what a beautiful boy she had.

She pleaded with him to let her son go and he toyed with her, taunted her, and he asked her if she loved her son, she said yes, he asked her if she would die for her son and she said yes. He dropped my brother and then kicked him in the stomach and my mother ran at him screaming and punching him for hurting my brother. He just laughed and grabbed her and bit her on the neck and drained her. He left her there on the pavement and walked away saying that his daddy never loved him." Brad dropping his head to rest on his raised knees crying in deep sorrow.

Xander crawling on the bed to hold his lover wraps his arms around him and whispers to him. " I'm so sorry baby I didn't mean for you to relive bad memories." " I just wanted you to know that its ok to tell your family about us." "I will stand by you and together we can get through anything." " Brad look at me please baby."

Brad raises his head and looks at his lover.

" Brad fine if you don't want to tell your family then that's ok with me; I still have you baby; and I can just deal with everything else ok."

Brad nods his head letting Xander sooth him.

" Brad, I love you." Telling Brad for the first time.

" Oh gawd Xan I don't deserve your love."

" Yes you do Brad ;I do love you and I want to spend my whole life with you."

" I hate fighting with you." Said Xander as he pushed Brad back on to the bed.

" When there are so many other things we can be doing." Xander devouring Brads lips in a heated kiss.

" Tomorrow morning I will get up and kiss my boyfriend good bye with a promise from him that he will come home to me soon and I might not like it but I will be ok with it."

" Thank you Xander I promise to be back some time Sunday and I will have my cell phone so if you need me I will come home immediately."

" And anyway you wont have time to miss me because didn't you promise Buffy and Willow that you would go with them to shop for a bride maids dress. And you know how they are when they shop." Both men shuttering at the memory of going Christmas shopping with them at the crowded mall.

Xander crawling his body on top of Brads and propping him self up by his arms, settling his knees in-between Brads and pushes his legs apart and then grinds their pelvises together.

" I don't want to talk about you leaving tomorrow or brides maids dresses; I want to fuck you; now!" Xander lowering his head to Brads right tit and takes it in to his mouth were he rolls the bud around his tongue causing Brad to buck and toss his head back in to the pillow. Xander flicks his tongue back and forth over his hard nipple teasing Brad and making him wither under him.

" Gawd you are killing me here Xan I swear it's the best way to go, being fucked to death by your lover."

Xander laughs and kisses Brad hard. " So what you are telling me is you don't want me to fuck you?"

" Hell no!"

Xander laughs and grabs Brad and they roll around the bed laughing, kissing, touching and tickling each other playfully before things got heated and they spent the rest of the night with Xander buried deep into Brad and not going to sleep till the first rays of light.

By noon the next day Brad was on the road and making his way to L.A. His thoughts were a mess in his head; He couldn't stop thinking about Xander and that he actually told him the truth about his mother. He has never told any one what happen to his mom. He always told everyone that she died in a car accident. He doesn't know why but he just knows that he started out with a vengeance and now he thinks he is falling in love.

" What a fucking mess!" Said Brad to empty air.

Brad goes straight to his brother's office when he got to L.A. He really wasn't looking forward to this meeting but he had to just go in and get it over with. Sitting in a black leather chair a cross from his brother Grant Mallory. Grant looked like on older version of Brad with black hair and tall muscular body. But the eyes were different even though they both had brown eyes that looked black; Grant had a hard glint in his. His eyes looked cruel and in a lot of pain.

" Well Brad how are things progressing in Sunnydale?"

" Really good; here are my notes that I documented on events that occurred and all the information that I obtained about each and every person that is friends with him."

" Excellent!" Said Grant as he leaned a crossed the desk and took the files from Brad.

" So what excuse did you use to get here this time?" Asked Grant not looking up from the files he was reviewing.

" Well after you lost your job the last time I was here you are getting kicked out of your apartment."

Grant throw his head back and gave a deep roar laugh.

" Funny too funny."

" Grant, I was thinking, are we doing the right thing by hurting an innocent person. I mean Xander has never hurt anyone and he has nothing to do with this."

" Brad, I really don't give a shit what this asshole has done or not done he conversed with that prick and that alone is enough." " In fact it's time to step up our plans."

" Step up our plans?" Asked Brad becoming nervous.

" Well yes little brother, I have finally got that little information that I have been looking for after all these months." " I have a friend that works for another law firm; you remember Lilah Morgan don't you?" " You met her last year at that party I had when I got that promotion." " She works for Wolfram and Hart."

Brads body shuddering at the memory of meeting Lilah, he thought she was a real evil bitch.

" Oh ya I remember her, What about her?"

" Well she had some friends of hers do a favor for me."

" You see she did what your new friends couldn't do?"

" What was that Grant?"

" She found mom's killer."

Brad sitting up at this and taking notice. " Oh ya!"

" Yes, and now we up the ante; I have a new plan and it just doesn't end with Xander I want to hurt them all."

" And you little brother are going to help me."

Brad letting out the breath he didn't know he was holding nods his head and says, " Ok, What do you want me to do?"

" We will plan all this tonight but know this I'm going to make William the Bloody pay for what he did even if I have to mail his friends body parts to him piece by piece and that bastard of a sire of his I'm going to send his ashes in a nice little gift wrapped box with a pretty little bow." " And Xander will die Brad, sorry but he will, oh hell who am I kidding I'm not sorry the prick will die slowly and I'm gong to send a video tape of me torturing him to death." Grant starts to laugh sadistically. " Oh man this is going to be good; fuck ya!"

Brad looking at Grant with disbelieve. Wonder how his brother got to be so out of control.

" Grant this is not right; you cant do this to these people. They didn't do anything they are innocent." " You cant be serious this?" " Listen to your self Grant you are talking about killing these people."Grant standing up quickly from his chair causing it to fall over backwards, clinching his fists in rage. " Fuck you!" " Have you forgotten mom so easily?"

" That fucking monster killed her." Screamed Grant.

" No!" " But killing some one is not the answer." Brad said screaming back.

" Grant if you know were this vampire is then go and kill him but leave the others alone."

Grant picking his chair up and throwing his body in to it lays his head in his hands.

" Fine Brad we will try it your way."

Brad letting out a sigh " Good Grant You'll thank me one day for talking you out of this."

" We aren't killers." " And mom would never have forgiven us for killing someone."

" She would have said that she raised us better then that."

" Your right Brad; you know I just hate that bastard so much."

" I know Grant and so do I." " But not enough to kill some one."

Grant getting up and walking around the desk embracing his brother." WE will talk more at dinner to night when I get off work."

" I'll take you to a nice little restaurant that I heard great things about and have been wanting to try."

" Ok Grant I will be at your apartment waiting for you to get off work."

" Bye Brad."

" Bye" " See ya tonight."

Grant walking back to his chair sits down and picks up the phone." Hello Lilah; Its Grant, You were right my little brother turned out to be a coward."

" It looks like if you want a job done and done right you have to do it your self."

" Ya I'm going to go to Sunnydale and get better acquainted with my brothers boyfriend." " And when William the Bloody sees what I did he will some running and then we will get him and his sire Angelus and complete the ritual." " It's a win, win situation William the Bloody will be dust and you get Angelus."

" Not to worry, I won't fail."

" I have been planning this to long and to hard for it to fail."

" Ok..I'll send you a postcard from Sunnydale."

" Bye"
