Before anyone could say anything Angel had Spike up against the wall by his throat, and it was only the fact that he didnt need to breath that prevented him from turning purple.
"What the Bloody hells going on?"
"Whats he doing here?"
"I could ask the same of you Angel"
"Angel, please let him go"
"But Willow..."
"LET HIM GO!"
Angel released him and stepped back, but not too far, just incase Spike tried something.
"Now, what are you doing here Angel?"
"Willow was in trouble, Doyle had a vision and Delia and I came with him to make sure Willow was okay"
"Oh, and was she"
"No Giles, I wasnt, some nasty looking sorcerer guy kidnapped me"
"Dear lord, are you alright? I mean he didnt harm you in any way?"
"No, no, Angel and the others got there before anything really bad could happen, but thats not why we`er here"
"Oh really?"
"Look I think we should sit down, and Angel-Spike, behave"
"Sure Red, long as the great poof keeps his claws off my throat, we`ll be fine, I can still hit demons remember!"
"Yes, yes Spike we know, now do as Willow says and sit down"
They all headed towards the front room and took seats. Angel glared at his childe all the way there and didnt stop once they`d sat down.
Giles was curious about this sorcerer, but could tell Willow had greater things on her mind, and as she was apparently alive and well and sat in his living room there was no imediate danger.
"So, what is HE doing here?"
"Umm, Angel, I meant to tell you before we got here but I forgot and then you just kind of went Grrr on us, sorry"
"Its okay love, It was just a surprise, last time I saw him he was in the middle of tortureing me for the gem of Amara, remember?"
"Oh, yeah right, sorry bout that peaches, got a little carried away thats all"
"CARRIED AWAY...you stuck hot pokers through my sides!"
"Like I said, carried away, sorry"
He looked anything but...
Angel noticed the way Willow was scowling at the blonde and was just gonna ask what was wrong when..
"YOU WHAT?..you tortured him, goddess Spike, I stuck up for you when you came crawling to us, but if you`d told me that I`d have let them stake your ass out to meet the sun, you son of a bitch"
Spike looked suitably cowed at her words and lowered his gaze..Angel was fascinated, amused but fascinated, he`d never heard anyone talk to Spike like that and get away with it with out being eaten, apart from Dru that is.
