Disclaimer: I don't own BtVS. And the idea I borrowed from M. Scott Eiland. Thankies. I love all the feedback that I've been sent. Huggles to all who are supporting me through this journey called a fanfic. And thanks to Zadi, who I used as a demon in here.



Cordelia picked up the phone. "Hello, Angel Investigations. We help the hopeless."

"Hi Cordelia. It's Willow." Willow sounded nervous on the phone. Cordelia tightened her grip on the phone, waiting for the bad news.

"What's wrong Willow? Do you need to talk to Angel?" Cordelia tried to keep the frightened tone out of her voice, to no avile.

"No, it's nothing bad, Cordelia. Actually it's really good news." Willow waved Spike away from the phone.

"What kind of good news?" Cordelia sounded suspicious.

"The good kind!" Willow giggled.

"Ok, what is it?" Cordelia relented.

"You have to come to Sunnydale to get it. It has to be seen more then told. Cause you won't believe me over the phone." Willow rolled her eyes at the phone.

"Ok, I'll talk to Angel, Gunn, and Wesley. But I don't know what we are going to do with Fred. She's a hermit." Cordelia motioned to the group to come over.

"See ya then. Bye, Cordelia."

"Wait...Bye Willow," as Cordelia heard the buzz of disconnection and slowly hung up. Then looked over at the guys. "Willow needs us to come down to Sunnydale. Something about good news. She said it wouldn't come out right over the phone. Whatever that means. She was very persistent. So I say, as much as I don't want to go, that we should." After a lot of arguing, and packing, they were on their way the next day.

On the other hand, Willow placed the phone down, and looked at the crew. "They'll be here tomorrow, hopefully."

Xander and Spike rolled their eyes in unison. "Bloody fantastic, Peaches and crew can come up and have a family reunion." Spike growled out.

"Could be worse." Tairra smirked.

Rune held his head in his hands. "She just had to say that, didn't she," He whined.

"Aye, she did." Doyle groaned.

"What's wrong with that? She's right." Buffy looked confused.

"Everytime someone says that, it does, Buffy." Xander answered for Doyle and Rune.

"They have a point, Buffy. It does." Willow looked around sheepishly.

Then a sound of high pitched music flooded the room, and everyone in the room jumped a little. As Tairra looked sheepishly at her cell phone. And picked it up.

"Hello?" She answered, half not wanting to know who. Then got excited. "Tari?! Gods, it's been forever since I talked to you. I know it's only been only been one night! But...but...it's you! And I always talk you."

Rune and Doyle made a silent sob, as Tairra giggled over the phone. "That's her best gal pal, Tari. She's a werewolf." Rune told the confused group. "They are the scariest things to get together in the same room. Believe me, I live with them." Doyle shuddered at that.

"Why do you live with them?" Xander had the 'Older Brother' look in his eyes.

Tairra look up from her conversation over the phone. "Cause Tari and I needed a strong man to keep us safe...And cause he's gay."

Rune rolled his eyes. "I'm bi."

"Gay!"

"Bi!" Rune took the phone from Tairra's hand and looked her dead straight in the eye. "I am bisexual. I like guys and women."

Tairra raised an eyebrow, and took the phone from him. "Then why have you never hit on a girl the whole time I've known you?"

"I've never hit on a guy infront of you either." Rune reminded.

Doyle burst out laughing.

"What?" Rune glared at Doyle.

"You hit on me the first time you met me. And Tairra was in my arms at the time." Doyle pointed out.

The 'Older Brother' glare shifted to Doyle. "What? I was doing my job, and protecting the seer."

"Besides, Tari was getting to the good news bout Zadi." Then got back on the cell phone. "He got it?!" And squealed.

"Got what?" Giles said, while cleaning his glasses.

Tairra ignored the group, as she giggled and talked adamantly with 'Tari' for 3 more minutes before exchanging good-byes in German. And hung up.

Tairra looked over at Xander and giggled. "What would you say if I told you, you never had to worry about money again?"

Xander smiled. "Thank you. And what was that phone conversation about?"

"You are now have about 10 million dollars in several bank accounts. All under your name, Alexander LaVelle." Tairra bowed.

"How?" was a collective question.

"Zadi is a computer demons in a way. His body is mostly electrical. He has a solid form, but would rather be in his less restrictive body." Tairra smiled. "Tari and I had rented Swordfish...mostly for Hugh Jackman without a shirt, but then we decided to find out if it was real. If we could find money like that. With the government, we figured it would be some trouble, not because of the firewalls, but the disorder. Zadi had a hell of a time trying to find anything in the mess. But he did it. And he all he wants for his trouble is a ton of chocolate. I don't think that's too much, do you?" Tairra smiled.

"Chocolate, that's it?" Xander blinked. The whole room was dumbfounded.

"He's a huge chocolate fanatic. That's the only reason he goes into his solid form." Tairra laughs.

"So when you go back, I'll send chocolate with you." Xander nodded.

"Cool, I'll call him tomorrow and tell him. He'll be so happy." Tairra, then looked at the clock. "I think for the UV impaired, that we should go home now."

Everyone glanced at the clock. Rune looked dumbfounded, and Spike nodded. "I knew there was a reason my skin was itching."

Rune looked at him, then threw his hands in the air. "Did all vampires but me get an internal clock?! I swear that's so unfair."

Tairra rolled her eyes at him. "Rune, deal." Then took Doyle's hand and dragged him out to the car.

"I take that as our cue to leave." Xander took Spike's hand and walked out. With a pouting Rune following.
