"The portals opened again." Connor informed.
Gunn whirled around. "Where?"
"Not in here. Out there!" He pointed out of the window he was standing next to.
He was right. Where they had thought the demons had gone again-along with the portal-had reappeared. There were about thirty of the demons. They were all the same race-blue eyes, green tongue,and purple skin. Very colourful.
"Where the hell are they all comin' from?"
"From the portla." Illyria supplied helpfully.
"You don't say?"
"Well, let's get out there, and...stop 'em." Angel said. "Keep the weapons outta site till we get down there."
Once they were gone, Spike moved over to the window, annoyed that they wouldn't let him join in the fun. He was a liability to them, now, and they needed to know that he was out oof the way and safe.
Not to say that he liked the idea of just watching. He walked to the door, and tired to reach the door handle. But, being in his three-year-old self, he wasn't tall enough. After a few tries, he cursed, and stomped over to the window.
******************************
"They've started movin'!" Gunn shouted, as he took on the first few demons.
"I have an idea." Connor said. "If they come in through the portal, then we must be able to go *out* through the portal. Right?"
"Connor, no!" Angel shouted.
But it was too late, Connor tensed, and jumped through the portal.
"Keep fightin', man! I'll go after!" Gunn shouted, but the portal had closed. "Damn fool kid."
They only had around nine more demons to go. They dealt with them quickly, but they knew that two or three had ran, and cahsed after them.
***********************************
The door opened, and Spike turned around slowly, expecting it to be one, or perhaps all, of the others.
It wasn't.
"A *child*?" The demon snarled.
"I'm over one hundered years old, you git." He sneered back.
"Funny. You're *human*. Humans can not live for that long."
"How sure are you?"
The demon had been advancing on him, slowly, as they talked. Spike couldn't move further back, as he had backed into a corner.
"Very." The demon stopped walking, just a few feet away from him. "Come with me, little boy."
"Piss off!"
The demon made a glutteral sound deep in his throat and reached out his hands to grab Spike.
But its hands were too big to keep hold of him, and Spike wriggled free, and made a run for the door. Unfortunately, the thing was smarter than it looked. It picked up the baby lead and grabbed Spike again. He slipped the lead on him, and wrapped the other end around his meety fist.
Laughing, or making a sound that sounded like laughing, the demon picked him up, and jumped from the window.
*************************************************
The portal opened behind Gunn, and Connor dropped out.
"Well, that didn't work. Did i miss anythin'?"
"Yeah, the demons runnin'. C'mon."
They took off at a run, back to where it had started, and stopped.
"Where're the others?"
"Chasin' the others."
After a moment, Illyria walked up to them. She was soon followed by Angel.
"We got ours."
"Not me, mine didn't go the way." Gunn admitted with a small shrug.
"It must've doubled back." Angel guessed. "But where-"
He cut off his own sentence as a window above them smashed. THey all looked up, to see a crouched demon jump out. They window was seven storys up, yet the thing landed gracefully on its feet. He dropped the bundle in his arms, letting whatever it was drop to the ground.
"Spike?" Angel said.
The now-small boy stood up, dusting glass off his clothes. He tried twisting away, but the demon had a firm grip of his baby lead.
"Back off, humans, or i'll cut this boy's head off." It threatened, holding a knife to Spike's neck.
He immediately stopped struggling.
