The next morning, Spike wasn’t in bed when Buffy woke up and neither was Kary.
Smiling, she got out of bed and went downstairs, but Spike and Kary were not around. “Spike? Kary?”
There was a note on the fridge. ‘You thought I wouldn’t find out? Well guess what, your daughter and husband are with me and you’re lucky you’ll see one of them again.’
Tears flooded Buffy’s eyes and she picked up the phone. After a few rings, Conner picked up the phone. “Hello?”
“Conner? Is Kathy all right?” Buffy asked.
“Yeah why?” Conner asked. “Are you okay?”
“Can you and Dawn bring her to Angel’s office, its an emergency?”
“Yeah, we’ll be right there,” Conner said, waking up.
Buffy hung up and flew out the door.
Angel looked up as Buffy crashed through the door. “Buffy? What happened?”
“Spike and Kary are missing. Oh god, Angel. I don’t think they’re both coming back,” she whimpered.
“Buffy,” Angel said, pulling her into his arms. “Just calm down and tell me what happened.”
“Yesterday, Riley called me at work but once I told him I was married he really didn’t have too much to say. There was a note on the fridge this morning,” she said, pulling it out to show him. “Angel, I cant lose either of them. Please do something.”
Dawn and Conner came through the door with Buffy’s youngest. “Buffy?”
Buffy took her little girl from Dawn. “Oh god. You’re okay,” she whispered.
“I told you she was,” Conner said.
“Buffy, what happened?” Dawn asked.
“Kary and Spike are gone,” Buffy said. “And they’re in trouble.”
Conner looked at Angel who was on the phone. “Get all search units assembled. I’ll be right down to give orders,” he said, hanging up the phone. “Buffy are you coming?”
“Yes. Dawn can you guys please stay with Kathy but don’t leave Wolfram and Hart?” Buffy asked, giving Kathy to Dawn.
“Of course,” Dawn said. “Call us if there’s news.”
Buffy looked at Angel and they hurried out the door.
In the garage, Angel was addressing his units. “We need to find Kary and Spike,” he said, giving the commander a picture. “We believe Riley Finn is responsible and he may be armed and dangerous. He’s about 6 foot, brown hair, scar on the left side of his face. Find him and don’t kill him unless you have to.”
“Actually, notify me and Angel when you have located him,” Buffy said. “We’ll come to you.”
The search teams headed out and Buffy climbed into the passenger seat of Angel’s viper.
“Buffy, where do you want to look?” Angel asked.
“He mentioned this house he bough and gave me the address,” Buffy said.
5 mintues later, they were in front of an abandoned warehouse.
Buffy’s ears picked up Kary’s screams. “He’s hurting her,” she said, going to open the door.
“Buffy, wait,” Angel said, pulling his cell phone out.
After he called off the search and asked for back up, he nodded.
“Carefully,” Angel whispered.
Buffy and Angel quietly made their way to the window to peek in.
“Angel,” Buffy whispered, looking at her beaten husband and bruised child. “Can you get Kary out of here and I’ll do the rest. When the team gets here, we’ll help Spike. Have someone take Kary to Wolfram and Hart immediately. I don’t want her around for this.”
Angle nodded and they quietly slipped in the door.
Riley had turned his back and was doing something to Spike.
Angel slid over to Kary and unlocked her handcuffs.
Buffy smiled at her daughter and motioned for her to be quiet.
Kary nodded and snuggled into Angel’s arms as he left swiftly and quietly.
Buffy stalked over to Riley and threw him across the floor. “I’m gunna kill you!” She flared. “You attack my husband and my daughter? How dare you?!”
“How long have you been married to that creep?” Riley spat.
“5 wonderful years. He’s a great father and a better man then u ever were,” Buffy said, as Angel came back in.
“Kary’s safe,” he said.
“Thank you,” Buffy said, running to Spike’s side. “Spike, baby, wake up,” she whispered, not registering the fact that Riley was being dragged away by Angel’s team.
Angel came over to her. “Buffy, come on. I’ll get him,” he said.
Buffy nodded tearfully and Angel picked Spike up gently. “Is he going to be okay, Angel?”
“I don’t know, Buffy,” Angel said.
