Part One
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Willow Rosenburg sat in front of her glowing computer screen, her vision was begining to go fuzzy after hours of staring at the screen. Ever since Ms.Calendar died, Willow had begun to take up witchcraft and dabbled in magick and spells, she had been looking a long 8 hrs for a certain spell that would raise power to make her stronger in the craft.
"Well this doesn't look to hard, all I need now is to wait until the next full moon which is...hey thats tommorow" Willow quietly spoke to herself. She saved the spell and with a yawn, and shut down her computer as she dragged herself over to her bed, slipping her tiny frame underneath the cool sheets.
"MMmm, sleep" she muttered before finally drifting off into a dream filled sleep.
The next evening-
Willow knelt at the edge of the river and looked into its crystal depths, her athame, candles, feather and cauldron to the right of her, and the printed out spell lying on the ground to the left of her. She shuddered as that last thought registered.
Willow lighted the 7 white candles, drew a circle in the ground around her with the athame and filled the cauldron with soil as she chanted in a low voice "I call a upon the powers of earth, air, fire and water to assist me as I raise power.
Akasha, Simbagwe, He-whoziwahtzit?
Sheesh, why do these words have to be so difficult."
Willow continued on through the diffecult words when the ground beneath her began to shake and the water in front of her began to bubble. She looked up suddenly a little scared and stood up from her place on the ground.
"Hey I was only half way finished, why is it doing...uh-oh." she excalimed as the water began to rise and take form in the shape of a man. Somewhere from inside, Willow knew that this, thing, was bad, that it could cause death and destruction, and wreak havoc on all that crossed his path.
she told herself, but her feet stayed planted to the ground refusing to move as fear took hold of them.
The creature continued to rise as the water dripped off from him revealing pale white flesh and eyes so cold looking, that that alone was enough to put fear into the one who glanced upon them. He stepped onto the shore as the last of the droplets fell off. The man was wearing a long flowing purple robe made of a silky material and his head sported a gold crown dotted with jewels the same color as his eyes, which made him all the more evil looking.
Willow finally found the courage to run, but she wasn't quick enough as the king grabbed her arm holding her tight and turned her to face him.
"Ah, Alonwye, I have searched so long for you my darling. But you have been a very, naughty, girl." His voice was thick and deep and had an accent she couldn't quite place as he accented these last words.
"But this time my dear, you won't get away from me."
Willow had tears running down her face and staining her cheeks, but she didn't have time to think as the king threw to to the ground, making sure he knocked her out, as he picked her up in his arms and carried her across the mossy forest floor. The last thing she heard was a familiar and oddly welcome vampires growl, as the inruder yelled to the king.
"Put her down now."
Angel had sensed something was wrong but hadn't been sure what as he walked through the forest down to the lake. Unfourtunatly he was right and feared the worst as he saw Willow unconcious in the wizard's arms.
. "Angel spoke through his game face
"Look we can do this the easy way, or we can do this hard way. I much rather prefer the easy way."
The creature spoke through clenched teeth forcing himself to smile a sugar sweet smile.
"Ah Angelus, my dearly devoted enemy, so good to see you again." the king said as he dropped
Willow uncermoniously onto the ground with a thunk and began walking toward Angel already chanting an incantation and holding an amulet that was glowing a bright green color.
Angel winced as he heard Willow fall to the ground knowing that 2 blows to the head in one day was just not good. "Ok, I guess you want to do this hard way, figures", he said as he growled and lunged toward the king forcing him to the ground.
"You never did know how to treat a lady" he said as he pulled the amulet from the creature's hands kncking it from his grasp and watching smugly as it stopped glowing.
Angle ran to where Willow's still form lay and scooped her up, running with an inhuman speed away from the creature as he heard the king curse after them.
Angel lay Willow gently down onto his bed knowing that she would have one huge headache when she woke up. He stood over her for a moment looking down at her fiery hair that fanned itself over the white pillowcase and her soft lashes closed against her white skin. ...He at once dismissed the thought.
He was in his kitchen to get a cold rag for her head when he heard her moaning. Angel immediantly rushed to her side, "Willow, how are you feeling?" he asked as he placed the cold rag on her head and handed her 2 asprin.
Willow opened her eyes and put her hand to her throbbing head as she tried to get a bearing on her surroundings with her double vision. She closed her eyes for a second more resting her head against the pillow and when she opened them she could see straight, but best of all she saw the most handsome face. Willow's face turned a bright crimson as she thought that.
"Angel, umm...what happened."
< I knew this would come sooner or later, I hoped however it would be later >
"Maybe I should start at the beggining" he said as he looked into Willow's eyes to make sure he had her full attention before continuing. "A long time ago...
