Finally Time For Bed!...Or So I Thought.......

Apr 30, 2004 20:08

It felt good to finally have that shower and get into my pajamas not to mention get something to eat. We had our dinner and then were was all that junk food we had got from Cordy. It was like Halloween only we didn't have to wear costumes or go door to door...okay it was better then Halloween. There was still no sign of Buffy being home, or anyone else for that matter. I wasn't to worried. I knew that Buffy could totally handle herself. Plus my bruise was fading. I mean ya it was still there but I think it could pass for running into a door. But that is something Buffy and I still need to talk about..should be a hoot and a half.

I looked over to see Nicole already fast asleep. I was kind of surprised that I too hadn't fallen asleep yet. I mean I was tired and all but just couldn't get to sleep. Then all of a sudden I heard the song topsy turvy playing and I looked around and the t.v wasn't on..nor was my stereo...wait I don't have the CD and I thought we lost that tape...I closed my eyes for a few moments and the song faded away. That was really odd. Not to mention what seemed to be like a totally random thing. I mean I haven't listened or watched that movie in awhile and yet it just popped into my head.I opened my eyes and just stared at the glow stars I had on the ceiling. Everything was quiet...until...

"I am a WatchKnight...a holy knight of Byzantium.

A voice not sure of whose it was, no one was in the room...was this some kind of weird dream? And if it's a dream where are the gardens and waterfalls and people dancing singing tra-la-la?...It went quiet...but not for long

"Not just your powers...coming here...encountering a 754 year old holy knight...who leads you to your father...then decides to help you. Our choices lead us down the path meant for us. The future is still being written, but the authors have an idea where they're taking the story."

The voice was not familiar at all. But he was talking to someone. But who? Was he talking to me? Is there something I am missing. This is all very new. I mean I am still awake...pinches my arm then rubs it okay yes I am still awake. If I answered would they answer back again? Just then I heard another voice. Something about Show and Tell..This time the voice was actually familiar.

“First off, my last name is Summers...middle names Joyce.”

Once I heard Summers. I thought that maybe it was Buffy...but it wasn't her voice. Then once the middle name was stated I knew for sure it was not Buffy cause well for one her middle name is Anne. I was going to say maybe it was Mom but the whole middle name thing took that away. I thought more about the sound of the voice. I listened more.

“Everything till a month ago is pretty pointless and run-of-the-mill normality. As normal as life can get when your mum is a Slayer and your father was among one of the most feared vampires ever recorded in history. I think he may have embellished a bit on that one, but anyway. I was born in London, England...May 20th 2008.”

I was 100% sure of who this was now. It was Abby...but how was it possible that her last name is Summers and that her middle name is Joyce. Then I was a little big wigged out when she had said she was born May 20th, 2008. It was only 2004. Okay I know I am not from the past cause well I haven't made any wishes nor have I been playing with any spells or what not so it was clear Abby was from the future...wait this was it this was the reason why she was all secretive girl. She didn't want anyone to know...that or she didn't want me to know.

“When I was 13 they let me travel with them. First place I visited was here, with mum. Cant remember the reason behind the trip, but I do remember our first stop was some demon fighting agency...’Angel Investigations’. Friends of the family most of them, and apparently I was related to the man in charge, Angel. Great granddad to me and grand sire to my father. The reunion didn’t last long. Mum and Angel spoke...then that shifted to yelling, then...we left. Over the years I’d gone to Cleveland, Boston, Rome, France...and one last trip to L.A.”

Angel Investigations...friend of the family? Related to Angel? Her great ganddad..I would say she was a vampire if I hadn't have seen her out in the sun. That's when she said Grand Sire to her father. Spike!? well okay it was either him or Angel has been out on the prowl again. So my guess it leaning to Spike. But it Spike was Abby's father who was her mother. Her mom and Angel spoke. Darla? Drusilla?. This girl was blond so I am leaning on towards Darla. I thought they only had Connor and then Darla dusted herself just for Connor's birth..so the whole Darla thing was soon just an assumption.

“I shouldn’t have let him go. Mum was away...in Italy, so she couldn’t stop him. He asked if I wanted to come along...so I went. Angel Investigations was the destination there once again. But it was different...empty...dark. Then not so empty...and all too bright. Once the lights came on Angel was standing there...and my dad wasn’t. Then Angel wasn’t either...”

Abby then mentioned Spike leaving and her mother was away in Italy. Okay if I didn't guess the right answer now well I think there will be certain rights to hitting me in the head with a stupid stick. I am almost certain to who her mother was and also it makes the whole Abby 'Joyce" thing make more sense. Joyce was mine and Buffy's mother so I guess Buffy had a daughter...with..Spike and gave Abby what would have been her grandmother's name....okay So in the future Buffy and Spike they have a kid..which clearly Buffy named. This means Abby...would be my neice...okay so that's kid of cool. But It would have made things so much easier if she would have said something..okay so I probably would have thought she was nuts or some fan of Buffy's and well ran off. But she didn't and know well I know kinda..what if this wasn't really happening. After that everything was harder to make out throughout the rest of the conversation till that other guy who was there with Abby had said something

"Two decades of life every once in awhile is not eternity, and I will be brought back only when needed to protect the Key."

Does he know who I am? He is here to protect it so okay that at least sounded well it was creepy but least protecting is better then wanting to make shallow cuts just to watch the blood flow freely.

"No...it is either a green ball of energy, or a human being...a Key bearer. I protect both, though the ball of energy is easier to protect then a Key bearer."

Okay that was a little less reassuring. I mean okay obviously he wasn't sure that the Key had been made human but when he said that the ball of energy was easier to protect that got me a little bit worried. But as fast as the talking and stuff had came it was gone just as fast.

I sat up and looked around the room. Nicole was still asleep and it was still dark outside. It couldn't have been a dream all this stuff was way to fresh in my mind for it to have been a dream. With dreams you usually don't remember them. I laid back down in bed and got all comfy then I was soon fast asleep.
