| Chapter four "And where exactly do we fit into this little plan of yours?" Wesely questioned, clearly against the idea of Angel pretending to be Angelus not to mention the protest the stupid street punk made when he heard that Cordy was going to be his Pet. "No where. It'd be too suspicious if Angelus had the two of you around as well. I thought that we'd make those idiotic lawyers think that I killed you, we can get Kate to pull some strings to make it look as though the two of you met an ugly end." <Which you will if you don't go along with this plan.> Angelus sat back barely controling the urge to rip Wesley's and Gunn's throat's out. He was too close to having Willow and Cordy as his own to let these two twits ruin it all. "So what are we supposed to do while the three of you are playing make believe with Wolfram and Hart? Hide here at the hotel?" Gunn sat forward glaring at Angel from across the table. "Plus how do we know that they're going to be scaried of Angelus? The last time Mr Scorge of Europe was around he had his butt beat by a bunch of teens." Angelus blinked a few times at the dark youth. "So you're saying that Angelus wouldn't be able to scare a bunch of lawyers?" Gunn crossed his arms over his chest and sat back. "No I don't. They protect evil, they've seen bigger and badder than Angelus, that's why they think its going to be so damn easy to control him. After what went down in Sunnyhell I doubt that Angelus would show his funky ass face again." "I'll have you know I am one of the most feared Vampires with or without a soul. I spread death and fear across Europe. Mothers kept their children in after dark telling them stories of my gruesome murders to keep them in line." Standing and leaning across the table inches from Gunn's face, Angelus's eyes flickered gloden with his fury. "The *only* reason I lost last time was because one of my own turned on me. That and one lucky witch was able to find and recast the curse. If not for those two I would have sucked this earth into hell." Willow and Cordy sat open mouthed staring at Angel, feelings of Deja vue coursing through their veins. Wes slowly stood reaching for a near by stake. Angelus looked to each of them a smirk on his handsome face. "Think that will scare them?" Everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief. Gunn nodded trying to control his heavy breathing. "Okay, so you can play a mean vamp. What about these two? Are they going to be able to pull it off?" "I'll take care of that. I thought that you and Wes could take a little vacation down to Sunnydale. Keep Buff...y company." Angelus sat back down reminding himself to keep up the Angie act. "Well the least we can do is try." Wesely answered unenthusiastically still not sold on the plan. "But if something happens the three of you need to promise to call." Cordy smiled and jumped up from her chair next to Angel and hugged her friend "Promise. Stop being such a worry wart, you're acting as though I'll be spending time with Angelus instead of Angel. Nothing is going to happen." "It better not." Gunn glared over in Angel's direction. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "It's all set. I just called Giles. Though he thinks it's risky he understands. He's going to fill the others in so they all understand that Angel will be pretending to be Angelus." Wes sighed and looked over to Angel and the two girls who were sitting together on the couch. Angel had his arms stretched out behind each girl. "Are you *sure* you want to go through with this?" "We'll be fine Wes. You should go pick Gunn up and get going." Willow yawned and laid her head on Angel's shoulder. Wesley nodded and headed for the door. The Englishman felt something was amiss but he ignored his gut feeling and left to pick up Gunn. Home Next |
