It's Too Late...

Nov 01, 2006 14:17

I couldn't believe this was happening. Why would the Powers send me a vision when it was too late to do anything about it? What's the point of that? I was just so pissed off at them. And not just for the delayed vision, but for everything. What kind of game were they playing at? I mean, they were behind everything that had happened the year ( Read more... )

"Of course."

The fact that she was deflated by me always having someone to save was understandable and I hated it for. I should have been here with her, and only her, sharing memories and anything else that she wanted. But, no, as always, there was some evil somehwere threatening the sanctity of the world, or in this case, ruining and ending the lives of my friends. That Buffy might be dead again sent chills through me, more penetrating even then the kiss that i had just planted on her neck, which even bed-ridden...her skin was so soft, even though I knew that she wouldn't agree.

"I- I don't know Angel."

I studied her eyes, knowing that going back into a vision like this had to be paining beyond words.

"Everyone, everyone was inside, and everything happened so fast. I saw Willow, and- and Dawn. I heard Giles' voice and Xander's too."This was such a blow. I didn't know how to react. It was sad to me that I felt some relief that she hadn't said that Buffy was dead. But, it's how it was. Buffy needed to be on this Earth whether with ( ... )

Going back into that vision was one of the most difficult things I had ever done. Even more difficult than the time I had the vision of the guy stabbing out his own eye with the kitchen knife. Sure, the visions were blindingly painful back then, but the majority of the time I didn't know half the people that we were supposed to save.

That made things easier.

But this- this was totally different. These were my friends, people I grew up with, these were people that I knew... and had always known. And for them to be... dead, was just too much of a blow.

Angel was as shocked and upset as I was, and he was in his 'We need to slay the bad guy' mode. He mentioned about going shopping which made me feel extremely self conscious about myself. I had forgotten that I was still in my hospital gown, forgotten that less than a few hours before I had been in a comma for- god, who knows how long. I felt bad that at a time like this I felt so self conscious about my looks, but I just was.

"I think- I think if they were gone, like the others, I would have see it. I know I would have."

It wasn't exactly proof, nor was it a reason to celebrate because people once considered friends had been killed, but it did give me some hope. Life still attained some normalcy as long as all of my friends were around and if Buffy was alive.

"Take me home Angel."

I still owned the Hyperion, as for her own place, well, there wasn't one.

"Take me home, or to the Hyperion, I really don't care, just as long as it is far away from here.""Cordy, you don't have your own place. You can have any room that you want at the Hyperion, but nobody lives there now. For now, why don't you stay at my place? Tomorrow, you and I can look into getting you a new place ( ... )

Right. How could I forget about that? Oh, I was in a coma for... how long was I in a coma for? I thought about Dennis, wondered if he had moved on to the great beyond or something, now that I wasn't there. Or if he had made friends with who ever rented my old apartment.

Then it hit me, something that Angel said. Nobody lived at the Hyperion? Where did everyone live now? Not that I minded living at the Hyperion- all alone, all by myself, at the Hyperion... alone. Okay, I did mind. God, I had so many questions for Angel, and yet, there were other things that were more important than where everyone lived.

"Cordy, Wesley....we're about to go see him. Can you ascertain if his father was in the blast? His father came back to the Council after the old Council exploded last year."Wesley dad. Did I know what he ( ... )
