L.A.
Ok, Angelus, The First and Faith's bad sense of style aside, this had to be the scariest thing I'd ever seen! Trees, cars, the lines on the road, all a blur. Spike suggested buckling our seat belts and I didn't argue. We were doing well over a hundred and only slowed down for a minute just outside L.A. because both lanes were blocked by people actually doing the speed limit. We had passed a cop at some point but apparently he was no match for Spike driving...skills? I didn't even hear any sirens although I was sure there were some somewhere behind us, trying like hell to catch up. None of that mattered now. As scary as Spike's driving might be we had to get there fast and fast was exactly what we were doing.
I called Will when we first got on the 405. I quickly explained what was going on and hung up. I wasn't sure how she, or anyone else, felt about any of this but there had been no time to think about it. With the uber-vamp gone and the First still unable to take corporeal form they weren't in any immediate danger. Which was more then I could say for the people trapped in permanent midnight with one of the worlds fiercest vampires roaming the streets freely twenty-four-seven.
I honestly had no idea who we were going to capture Angel, alive, and get him back to Sunnydale so Willow could re-ensoul him, again. Not to mention how on earth we were going to flip the sun switch into the on position again. We'd have to find Wesley. If anyone knew what was going on it would be him. He might actually be our only hope of bring the day light back. Unfortunately, Angelus would know this small but vital fact too and would no doubt be going after Wesley the first chance he got. Time really was a factor here so that cop somewhere back there - I looked over my shoulder- would just have to wait.
"You ok?" I asked Dawn.
She nodded but I could tell she was lieing. She was looking a little green and holding onto the door handle for dear life. I smiled sympathetically and turned back around before my stomach decided to join hers. We passed a sign that announced our arrival in Los Angeles and I took a deep breath. We wouldn't actually know the extent of permanent midnight until morning, when the sun doesn't rise, but the effects of it were clear. Abandoned cars, fires, empty streets. This was definitely not the normal L.A. night life scene.
"Take us to Wesley's" I told Spike.
