Awkward moments

Jul 10, 2005 12:13

I didn't bother to answer Wesley when he asked if I would be joining him with Angel. I simply shook my head lightly and watching walk way, disappearing through the door. I had said what I needed to say to Angel, and I assumed Faith had done the same. Angel was not the being he has once been, and it was rather disturbing to see him in such a ( Read more... )

For some reason I couldn’t get over the nervousness I’d been feeling all night. First it had been seeing everyone again. First with Illyria, then everyone including my son in the alley, and then Faith and Wesley. All meetings were much different from one another and I guess I expected as much. They were all very different people so I had no reason to think everything would be the same with everyone ( ... )

It was obvious, even to me after being away for nearly a decade, that Angel wasn't about to calm down any time soon. I sincerely hoped that wasn't because of me, because of the fact that he had to deal with me, now that I wasn't a nightmare. A figment of his imagination ( ... )

It was hard to look at Wesley and not remember what had happened. Those last moment. It was hard to look at him and not remember the moment in which he held his Winifred in his arms, in much the same manner as I held him, and watched her die ( ... )

From the looks and comments from both Illyria and Wes, it seemed that I wasn't the only one who thought something was off about all this. Faith had obviously been outside from the voices we all had heard, but something was.. just wrong ( ... )

As Illyria and Angel spoke, I was starting to recognize the feeling in the pit of my stomach. I'd not felt it often; there hardly was any danger in Limbo. Certainly no danger of dying. Faith and I were both as dead a could be. But it had been there a few times. Even stronger once we found ourselves out of Limbo and on our little journey ( ... )

I was not sure what was going on. Somehow Faith had gone missing. From what I had gathered she still possessed her slayer strength. Where ever she was, she was probably alright. Still, it was strange. Too many unexplained things had happened and something such as this shouldn't be overlooked ( ... )

Wesley moved past me and I wasn't really sure what to think about it all yet. He seemed concerned, genuinely concerned for Faith but there was something else. Something I couldn't quite place. Sure, they'd spent the time together in whatever the hell 'limbo' was - nothing apparently - and I guess they had their time to 'bond' or..you know, something.

Something I hadn't had or even tried to have with anyone or anything except myself for the past decade. Until now anyway.

I followed Illyria to the front door then out back joining Wes. Frowning, I took a few steps into the yard and breathed in some unneeded air. Something was wrong. Something else besides the normal. I looked around the back yard for a moment then back at Wesley and Illyria.

"Someone else was here.. something else was here." Could whatever that had been here possibly have taken her? All the time I'd known Faith, I'd really never known her to get taken anywhere she didn't want to go - well, besides dying but that was another issue entirely.

Alright, this wasn't helping. Faith was gone and we were just standing here. Well, we did a quick sweep, but still now we were standing here. We needed to *do* something. Find her! She's no doubt in trouble. The girl is a trouble magnet just as much as I am ( ... )

I walked around trying to see if I could find more clues but there were none that I could follow, other than the obvious things that were pointed out. I looked to Wesley, then Angel, than back to Wesley again.

It was apparent that he had feelings for the Slayer. I had sensed this earlier on, but now it was plainly obvious. I shifted my gaze and looked out into the street, everything seemed empty like it usually did. I wondered how she had disappeared without one of us knowing it. The Slayer strength was legendary, and I couldn't imagine how would be able to overpower her.

"Someone must have found out she was back," I offered. "Someone, or some- thing." I looked at Angel and studied him for a moment. I couldn't tell what it was that he was thinking, but I could see the worry behind his eyes.

"Angel," I said. "Do you think you can track whatever was here? Do you think you can follow its scent? Or even Faith's for that matter?" I asked.

I watched Wesley go over to some bushes and examine the area. Nodding, I looked around some more. Kneeling down I saw two or three cigarettes that hadn't been fully smoked. For some reason that struck a fear inside of me on top of everything else. It was something small, but Faith wouldn't leave two or even one of these half smoked just on the ground.

Picking up one of them, I watched as some smoke drifted from the end. I lifted it to my face and besides the obvious smell of smoke, there was something else and it wasn't Faith. Narrowing my eyes, I let out a lowly growl and flicked the thing away.

Standing, I turned back to Illyria and Wesley. I gripped my hands at my sides and then froze for a moment when I heard Illyria. I wanted to find Faith and the thing that took her, but tracking? I hadn't done that since.. well, it'd been a while ( ... )

My eyebrow rose as I stared at Illyria. It was on the tip of my tongue to say that I'd just said that. Apparently she still had some of her former godlike tendencies. Annoying ones at that, but they gave me a familiar feeling. Still, I didn't say it in my opinion we were wasting too much time talking already ( ... )
