and won't stop until he gets him [SLASH] AngelSpike
A/N:
Before you start moaning about the lyrics I promise you that they do play a
part in the story. I don't mean the lyrics but the actual song itself (You'll
understand in later chapters).
"I
can't believe we are FINALLY getting away from Wolfram and Hart! It was a great
idea of yours Angel, Nothing but relaxing for a whole month!" Fred babbled
excitedly in the back of the viper.
"Yeah
Peaches, I can't believe we are actually going to
"I'll
have to agree, nothing like getting back to
"Hey
there's a first time for everything, I am quite looking forward to this myself.
The way English keeps going on about the place makes me wonder what all the
fuss is about" Gunn cut in, grinning at the outraged look Wesley gave him
at making London sound so ordinary.
"I'll
have you know Mr. Charles Gunn that
"Oh!
I love this song," Spike yelled, breaking the argument, "It was in
one of those vampire movies, also set in London, I can't find the bloody song
anywhere and it only plays on the radio" Spike finished as a drum beat and
violins sounded.
"I'm
over it,
You see I'm falling in the black abyss,
Clouded by memories of the past,
At last, I see"
"I
hear it fading, I can't speak It,
Unless you will dig my grave.
We fear them finding, Always winding,
Take my hand now,
Be alive
"
"Somehow,
I don't think so" Angel spoke; wincing at the heavy rock beat that filled
the car.
"Angel
Angel
"
Suddenly
all Angel could hear was beeping and banging and his vision became blurry and
he felt a floating sensation go through him until
"Angel!
Open up, I've got to check on Spike and the construction men want to fix the
windows in your suite. They've already started in your office. Angel!"
he
woke up. When Angel came to his senses he realized that the banging and beeping
were indeed the construction workers downstairs in his office. He got out of
his bed, careful not to disturb Spike, and looked down, out of his broken
window. The cranes were lifting up the glass and the men were steadying the
window replacement.
"Angel!
I'm not asking you again!" Fred's annoyed voice broke through his musings
as he remembered that he had security locked the elevator.
"I'm
coming, I'm coming" Angel mumbled as he headed over to the elevator where
Fred's voice could be heard echoing up through it.
"About
time! I've been waiting for ages. The builders want to come up after I'm done
looking over Spike or whenever he wakes up" Fred said, walking towards
Spike.
"There
is so much bloody racket down there that I've been awake for about an
hour!" Spike complained as he sat up in bed glowering at the smashed window.
"Couldn't
you bloody pillocks wait until
"Sorry
Spike, they were going to start at 8am but once it got to 10.30am I thought
that the sooner they get the windows fixed, the sooner they leave" Fred said
apologetically
"Too
bloody right. So Princess what can I do ya for?" Spike said, flopping back
against the bed. Fred giggled at Spike's pet name for her before she set
herself down on the edge of the bed.
"Just
a little routine check over for you then I'll be gone. I would have liked for
you to get as much rest today as possible, but because of all that 'Bloody
racket down there' I don't think you'll be able to" Fred said, crinkling
her nose in frustration.
"I'm
fine, really. So where do you want to start luv?" Spike winked at Fred
playfully.
"Well
I
did want to ask you a question. When you were under that spell what exactly
happened? Because I don't think that Kaden would hypnotise you only to leave
you without any side effects" Fred asked quietly.
Spike
sighed, "It was pretty powerful. I don't know luv to be honest. All I know
is that the only guy that could do proper hypnotism was Dracula but what I know
about hypnotism is that it either has to be connected in your mind like Dru's
insanity; the hypnotism destroyed a part of her mind. Kaden seemed sane enough
so maybe he needs to find a sort of
anchor to keep the spell going for a
long-term effect. Just like Dracula, the hypnotism wears off after a while. He
could probably want the hypnotism for a whole different matter all together, I
really don't know" Spike replied regretfully, sending the room into an
uncomfortable silence.
"I'm
going downstairs to get us some blood Spike. You need anything Fred?"
Angel asked, trying not to break the tension in the room and trying to quell
the protective instinct in him. He didn't want to appear overly possessive of
Spike since he knew Spike hated being coddled over like a child.
"A
can of cola would be nice thanks" Fred replied smiling as Angel nodded and
pressed for the elevator.
As
soon as the doors opened a hysterical Jake came crashing into Angel, babbling
incoherently.
"Miss
Burkle, You've got to come
there were pieces!" Jake hurriedly gestured to
the elevator as Fred and Spike came over from their perch, looking very
confused, into the elevator.
"I
guess while we are checking this out we could let the builders upstairs,"
Spike said leaning against Angel who nodded in agreement.
WOLFRAM
AND HART,
As
the four came in through the elevator the sight of hysterical, pale faced,
employees greeted them as well as several technicians, doctors and nurses.
"What
happened?" Fred asked Gunn timidly, trying not to breath in the smell of
nausea that circled the room.
"You
know that earlier this morning
about
"Oh
my God, who was it? How did he fall to pieces?" Fred choked out, trying
not to gag at the thought of a man in several pieces.
"It
was Nigel! He got blown to pieces by a stray fucking bullet!" Jake
screamed, sobbing for his friends who had fallen at the killers' mercy.
"So
how's the research going about this guy 'Kaden'" Angel interrupted,
wanting to find the guy as quick as possible before he could cause any more
destruction or get his hands on Spike.
"Nothing
yet I'm afraid. Whoever this man or demon is has been very secretive since he
is practically unheard of. None of Wolfram and Hart's books know anything about
him so we are basically at a loss of where to start looking for him"
Wesley said ruefully, hanging his head in defeat.
"No.
We will try our best to find out anything about him and if we don't then we
will face him head on. We'll find out where he hides out and attack him. He's
hurt too many people and wants to hurt and have more. He won't get away with
this" Angel yelled determinedly, sending everyone in the room clapping and
cheering. The mood was broken when Spike patted Angel on the back and said,
"Of course we will Peaches"
WOLFRAM
AND HART, MAIN ENTRANCE:
FLASHBACK:
"Don't try to cheat me
"What are you waiting for? Get in there! The sooner you get
this done, the sooner you go home to your loving family" Kaden mocked in
his head.
WOLFRAM
AND HART,
"I
need some help!" A woman's voice shouted out urgently as she dragged in
"
"I
don't know! I got taken somewhere!"
"Any
idea where?" Wesley asked eagerly.
"I
think it was a club, I could feel music vibrations on my feet and sounds of a
party. There was a man there, he seemed important. What was his name? Kavin?
"
"Kaden"
Angel and Spike supplied.
"That's
it! I heard him talking about plans on taking over the world, you know the
OUCH- usual. But then he kept saying that he wanted someone, I couldn't here
the person's name, but the guy was hell bent on getting Hiss- him. Would you
be more careful!"
"The
club" Sean whispered from his bed.
"Rest
Sean, we'll take care of this" Fred spoke tenderly.
"No,
the guy said something about 'Pure Evil' right? Well that's a club a few blocks
from here. It was called 'The Phoenix' but it went under new management about 2
months cough- ago" Sean choked out, drinking thankfully at the water that
a medic shoved under his nose.
"It's
too obvious. It's got to be a trap, you know 'tell us where his location is
just so he beats the crap out of ya' sorta thing" Spike said, sitting on
the bed tiredly.
"Maybe
Kaden thinks I'm dead. If that is the case then he wouldn't suspect being
ambushed at his club would he?" Sean gasped out, while being insistently
pushed back against the bed to get some rest by a worried medic.
Angel
paced the room for a while, thinking the information over and looked over at
Spike. If Kaden wanted Spike he would have to fight for him, Angel mused
resolutely. Angel looked over at his employees thoughtfully. He could get some
of them to circle the main dance area of the club, find out whatever they could
from regular visitors while him and some others could head straight to Kaden to
test out his weaknesses. Angel smiled,
"It's
a plan"
