Summery: what if Spike and not Darla had found Angel the night he was ensouled?

"You're doing what?" she asked with venom. "You can't leave me I made you!"
"Drusilla Darling, while you made me, and I do adore you, he has more of a claim to me. He made you, you're his, you made me but as he made you I'm still his. If he wishes me to go, I go. I'm sorry, I love you, we'll have eternity together but he needs me right now." He said calmly trying to assuage her. "It'll most likely take a few years, but we have forever." He lied smoothly knowing then he would never be back with his Princess for he loved his Lord more. "Where he goes, I must follow if he wishes it."
"He isn't your sire! He is some beast wearing your sire's face. If you go with him you are truly weak! I see it now you're surrounded with you inadequacies."
"Don't you know how to win friends and influence people. . . that would be a good name for a book. . . I must go, Pet, whether you wish it or not." He said as he picked up his bag and kissed her forehead.
"You disgust me, William, I don't know why I ever gave you life." She said as she clawed at his face.
"Well thanks just the same." He said as he left her in their bedroom. He heard Darla yelling and breaking glass and heard Angelus whimpering in pain but ignored the sound, let the man deal with his own sire, there was nothing he could do.

" I gave you life! And now you disgust me! You're broken by that filthy soul! I can't believe this! I so disgusted! I can't believe this after all I've done to cultivate you into what I wanted you become. . . I don't even know what to call you. . . I don't know what you are!" she said as she struck him again. By this point he was covered in so much of his own blood.
"Sire, I cannot help it, there is nothing I can do! Just let me go if I displease you so. I don't know what to do!" he said
"So you want to leave with that mutt? Fine! Just get out of my sight!" she screamed as she broke number 127 of his bones. "Don't come back until you're my Angelus!"

Spike walked into the room three minutes after she left. There on the floor was his sire unable to move. He gently caressed the man's hair as he threw him and his luggage over his shoulder. "Told you we should have left before they go back but noooo you wanted to see your sire. It's gonna be a slow day in the sewers until you heal, Sire."
Angel laughed before he passed out.
