~Part: 1~

Willow walked out to the balcony of the mansion looking over the city and smiled secure in the knowledge that the city now belonged to her and her mate. It has been only a couple of weeks since they buried her traitorous friends and already it felt like paradise. She couldn't believe how perfect her life was now that she was secure in a loving relationship and had the support of her new family. She looked up at the beauty of the stars and sighed. She wasn't bored she just wanted to do something different. She wanted to travel again. See more of the big bad world. Willow was pulled out of her thoughts as she felt a strong arm grab her around the waist.

"What are you thinking about baby? I called and you didn't answer." Angelus mock pouted.

"Nothing much I was just thinking that I finally have the best life. Its perfect" She answered leaning back against his shoulder. They stood together, locked in a tight embrace and gazed out into the night.

"Yeah I know." He replied after a couple of seconds as he began to rub her stomach.
He just couldn't help it. Willow always made him act like a horny teenage boy.

"Where are Spike and Cordelia?" She asked as she felt her body beginning to response to his touch.

"They went out hunting. We can do anything we want to occupy our time until they get back." He smiled a slow sinister smile.  He was about to drag her back into the room when he looked up in shock. Angelus couldn't believe what he was seeing. He knew something had to be wrong when he saw his child of all people running top speed and dragging Cordelia behind him.

Angelus took Willow's hand and pulled her inside making his way to the front of the mansion. "What do you think is wrong baby?" Willow asked nervously.

"I don't know babe." He replied as the front doors opened "What's happened to you two?" Angelus asked a little mad that somebody or something had his children running.

"They..are.." Spike took an unneeded breath as he stopped in front of his sire. He was paler than usual.

"Who are what?" Angelus asked getting a little impatient.

"Alive." Cordelia breathed out.

"Who is alive?" Willow asked a little concerned.

"Buffy, Rupert, Xander, Jenny all of them. They were in the cemetery tonight alive and trying to stake us." Spike explained.

"No that can't be. We buried all of them ourselves." Angelus snapped at them.

"Well dad I know what I saw. I know they were dead we are the ones that put them in there graves but somehow they are back."

"Are they vampires?" Willow asked a little nervous.

"No..for some bloody reason they still have heartbeats." Spike said as he walked over to the couch pulling Cordelia with him.

"Yeah Ok. That makes perfect sense. So what the hell is going on?" Willow tried to make sense of this new crisis.

"Like how the bloody hell should I know mum. There is one thing I know for sure and that is that they are out for blood and it has our names written all over it."

"Where do you think they are now?" Angelus asked looking around at his family.

"If I know them, they might be headed for the library." Willow answered.

"Ok. Spike send one of our spies over there to see if they can find out what is going on?" Angelus told him.

"Ok dad." Spike turned and walked over to the phone and dialed a number. He spoke for a couple of seconds then hung up. "Everything's good ...He will report back in a few." Spike made his way back to the couch pulling Cordelia back to his chest.

"Ok good. You two need to stay in for the rest of the night."  Angelus advised them.

"Ok." Both said in unison. Angelus saw Spike begin to kiss Cordelia's neck, and figured it was a sign for him and Willow to leave the room. Angelus know that when a vampire life has been threaten the next thing on the menu is shagging like rabbits that’s the only thing to calm your nerves.
 

Angelus grabbed Willow's hand and headed for their room to attend to some unfinished business they had earlier started.

Giles, Ms. Calendar, Buffy, and Xander walked into the library about an hour after they scared Spike and Cordelia out of the cemetery. They all sat down at the table together. All of them confused about what was going on expect for Giles.

"Rupert do you mind explaining what's going on?" Ms. Calendar asked.

"Well, I know that you are confused but I will try to make you understand what is happening." He sighed and continued. "Well what happened is this." He pulled out a stone of some sort out of his shirt, showing it to them. It was glowing bright.

"What is it Giles?" Buffy asked.

"Well let just say that this is what brought me back to life. After what happened with us bringing Angel back and it being a mistake I came up with this stone of life. I knew that Angel and Willow were going to be pissed and when you tried to get Angel back I knew I needed to do something quick. I did the spell and when I was killed my soul was sucked into this stone then two days afterwards the stone release me and I dug myself out of my grave." He explained to the three now more confused people.

"Well how did we get back?" Ms. Calendar asked.

"Exactly." Buffy and Xander asked unison.

"Well when I came back it took me a week but I found a restoration spell and performed it on the three of you early today." He took off his glasses and began to clean them. "We only have one problem. Were only going to live for 48 hours if we don't find the permanent version of the spell."

"How or where do we find it?" Xander asked.

"The only person I knew had it or who could perform such a dangerous spell was....was.....Willow." Giles confessed.

"Willow. Shit Giles you know that she is not going to help us. That's how we ended up dead in the first place." Buffy almost yelled.

"I know..I am going to look for it while you two go and get Willow and hopefully before our 48 hours are up we will find the spell.

"Okay" Buffy said as she pulled Xander up too his feet and they walked out of the library. Giles and Ms. Calendar walked into his office to research.

None of them knowing that one person had overheard the entire conversation. He smiled and walked out of the library and headed back to tell Angelus.

~Part: 2~

Angelus was awakened by a knock at the door. He slowly unraveled himself for Willow in efforts to not wake her. He knew she needed sleep after hearing about her dead exfriends coming back to life. It was bothering both of them more than they wanted it too. He smiled as he thought about how they spend the last hour and a half in bed. He was glad he was a vampire because no human could have stood up to her.

Angelus dressed and walked threw the living room and spotted Spike and Cordelia on the floor wrap up in the sheets.

{Couldn't even make it to the bed} he thought as he grabbed the doorknob and opened the door.

"Good evening master Angelus," the spy greeted him.

"What have you found out," Angelus asked not offering him a greeting back or to come in.

"Well..they were brought back by some necklace that Rupert has on."

"A necklace?"

"Yes..but the good news is they only have forty-eight hours to live."

"Thank you. That information is helpful," Angelus spoke as he paid the spy and sent him on his way. Angelus closed the door and made his way back through the living room. He woke up Spike and Cordelia and told them to get dress then made his way to his room to wake up Willow.

***

Once he made it to his room he watched her from the side of the bed for a few seconds. He really didn't want to wake her but he had too.

"Willow baby wake up," He called out.

"Why they are here?"

"No but I have a plan. I need you to do a spell that I know but I wasn't ready to use until now."

"What type of spell?" Willow asked as she sat up.

"It's an easy spell for someone like you. I never want to lose you or my family. I am ready to be with you for all eternity and I am ready to do what every it takes."

Willow listened as Angelus explained how to spell works.

Willow agreed and they all went into the living room and she began. Once Willow completed the spell they headed to the library where they knew the Scooby Doo gang would be.

***

"So what's the plan Giles?" Buffy asked.

"We go and look for them and we kill them before our time is up. We have already wasted." Giles words where cut short as the library doors opened and walked in full game faces Angelus, Willow, Spike, and Cordelia.

"Looky what we have here. A soon to be dead watcher, slayer, teacher and brat," Spike said amused as he walked up to Giles. Angelus headed for Buffy as she stood up from the table while Cordelia went for Jenny and Willow went for her best bud Xander.

"Why Xander I was hoping that we could..you know rekindle that thing we once had," Willow spoke as Xander clumsy feel over his bag. She could see him reaching into his pocket and waited for his attack.

"I don't think so Wil's you already killed me once and that is enough. I think killing your best friend draws the line in the friendship barrier."

"I'm hurt I thought we could be friends again," She lied.

"Nope have enough already," he spoke as he wraps his hand around the stake.

"Consider it your lost," Willow growled as she jumped up at him as he scrambled to stand up. Xander pull the cross and press it on her skin just as she landed on him. The thing that shocked Xander was it didn't burn.

"What the.?" He stumbled out.

"Sorry Xander you have to try something new. Crosses don't work anymore," she teased as she moved slowly to his neck.

"Oh God not again," Xander prayed as he fought to keep Willow from sinking her teeth into his neck but no avail. Xander felt his life leaving him again as he use to be best bud drained him *again*.

"He didn't even put up a good fight," Willow pouted as she dropped him to the ground and looked around as Cordelia finished off Jenny and as Spike just snapped Giles neck. That only felt Buffy.

They are surrounded Buffy as she got in the middle of the library prepare to fight them all off.

"Looks like it's your turn again Slayer," Angelus told her.

"I don't think so," Buffy spoke as Giles, Xander, and Jenny got up off the floor.

"What the bloody hell is going on," Spike yelled as they all turned and looked at their kills coming back to life.

Willow looked at Angelus wondering what was going on. "The stone.get the God damn stone," Angelus ordered as him and Buffy flew at each other.

Xander grabbed Willow as she tried to go after Giles, "And I thought you were my best friend Willow."

"Let me go Xander," Willow yelled as he staked her in her heart. Willow screamed as she turned to dust. Angelus looked but wasn't concerned about it he knew she would be back.

Jenny had caught Cordelia this time throwing her to the floor while Spike walked Giles to the second floor.

The action in the library was more brutal that a western movie but the only difference was no one would stay dead.

"Hurry Spike," Cordelia yelled as Jenny once again staked her. She turned to ashes but before Jenny could turn Cordelia returned and grabbed her from behind snapping her neck.

Spike finally caught Giles after being killed twice and snatched the stone from around his neck. He threw into the floor and smashed it with his boot. Everyone stop fighting after they all heard a howling sound. The sound grew louder, which made Giles, Jenny, Buffy, and Xander looked at each other knowing what is going to happen. They turned into a pile of dust. The dust seemed to gather together then floated up and out of the library window.

"That was interesting," Angelus spoke.

"More like weird," Spike suggested.

"I can agree with you on that one Spike," Willow told him.

The window that the ashes flew out closed hard shattering the glass.

"I can take that as a sign to leave," Angelus told them.

"Agreed," Willow spoke. "Let's get out of here."

They all gathered and walked out of the library. Once they caught a meal they headed back to the mansion.

***

"Mum what type of spell you used?" Spike asked as they all sat in the front room looking at the fire. Cordelia was in Spike lap lying on his chest while Willow lay on the couch while Angelus massages her feet.

"It an easy spell Spike," It never wears off and that mean you never die.well you can but not long."

"So that mean I am stuck with hearing you two shag for all eternity," Spike tease.

"Yep," Angelus jumped in.

"Oh Goody," Spike spoke rolling his eyes.

"Spike!" Angelus warned.

"That's great honey.well not the hearing them shagging part..the part about us being together forever," Cordelia jumped in.

"Yes it is," Spike told her as he kissed her on the check.

"Yes it is. Life was always great but it just really got perfect now that I know my mate, my children and I will live forever not matter how many times we get dusted," Angelus explained.

"Here here," they all shouted as they made it up to there rooms to once again wait on the next slayer of Sunnydale to be called. They were now truly invincible.

The End
