It was a little more than exciting to be flying first class on our way to city that was not as big as Los Angeles. Nonetheless It made me think of nothing more than the most positive things even in the most bad circumstances. Like a gift for the champions whom already been through so much in one town fighting the creatures of the night to save mankind only to fly to another hellmouth to fight again for mankind. That to me made things a lot easier to handle even though I wasn't sure what was to come next. The Hyperion went all kabluey, our home away from home but now it was time for us to start a new chapter almost very fairytale like. I breathed easier knowing that Angel was going to help steer us the right way even if we were unsure of what was next. I was guilty of second guessing our decisions, thinking of all kinds of plausible solutions to where or what we should do next in Los Angeles. In the end my equations pulled a slightly different factor than what I was thinking, Cleveland was the best solution by sixty-three percent.
I knew Wesley though I was crazy for adding all the pro's and con's to the move but it almost seemed right in a way. I had to insure him that I hadn't actually gone crazy again just thinking of things logically. Which in some other opinions one might think that was crazy but it suited things well in my book. It was funny that the top of my list of making things easier had to be Wesley, even with most of my answers him telling me that everything was going to be fine made it so much more believable. Our friendship has been getting a lot better as of recently and that was making things a lot better it seemed. When the Hyperion actually blew up, it made extremely upset as it did the rest of us. I mainly locked myself in my apartment for a night to gather my thoughts, which eventually Wesley was nice enough to call me. He told me a story of the 'Rabbit who thought he could,' at first I really couldn't get over the title but the story itself did have a happy ending, except for the toad though.
I carefully looked out the window of the plane, watching the clouds as we passed by each of them. Even though they were full of h2O ready to condensate all the way to the ground, all I could really think of was hope much prettier they looked being up in the sky. I put my hand against the glass as I wished even Angel could see this very nice little show but with the sun rays popping through at the moment he sort of locked himself up till night falls. Don't say I blame him, it would be very unfortunate to explain to everyone why you were caught on fire and you have to lock yourself in the nearest non-direct sunlight place. I didn't exactly know where he was and several assumptions came to mind, one of course was the bathroom. I tilted my head as I was ready to investigate his whereabouts but found it easier to just wait it out by making myself comfortable laying my head on the complimentary pillow.
The seating arrangements were a little odd, Wesley and Cordy was seated in front of me, Gunn and Lorne were behind me. I felt a little separated and it made it that much harder to lean up or turn around to talk to them. The women I was beside however weren't really happy about me continuing to move all around. In fact one of them, I thought but wasn't that certain, even shoved me back in my seat. There weren't really the nicest of people but as the movie started, a comedy by Kevin Smith, they seemed to settle down a little bit. Although I could hear many comments from Lorne behind me, he was mainly questioning the acting ability of the actors and even think I heard a few gags here and there. I liked the movie for the most part, I haven't seen one before that would make me laugh that hard.
It made me feel a little guilty to actually have time to enjoy something given all the things we had been through the past year. Things were a little rough at the beginning of the year giving the things Connor and Angel shared with one another after what happened to Cordy. I thought about her for a long time when she sent into her coma, I even tried several failed experiments to even help her out of it. It made me feel weaker than I actually was that I couldn't penetrate into a mystical coma using the right equations followed by the right chemicals. For some reason however she awakened by nature, time, or even a force I didn't know about. Whomever was responsible for her return I was more than thankful as well as the others.
Everyone has their little rough patch in life even though Cordelia had no memory of what Connor and her had done, I didn't suspect she would. Jasmine was 'the thing' that took over her body leaving her up where the pretty lights were. None of us blamed her or I didn't expect they did, I for one couldn't be more happy that she was back as was Angel. Our crew was now complete to make the transportation to the last hellmouth after a few bumpy roads. It was almost like we were starting off with a fresh start, and that was the exciting part for me.
I had been working with the champions for a long time now, I had a place as their aid. It didn't make me feel all that special but it did make me feel useful in some areas. Now that we were combining our efforts with Buffy and all the slayers I wondered if there was someone else like me on their..Now what did Angel call them, "Scooby Gang". It would be fantastic to talk physics to someone else like Willow, even though her last goodbye was a little weird. I took a deep breath as the pilot came on and told us it would be only a few minutes before landing. This was it, I was soon to be at my next home....
