I do not own any of the BTVS characters, they belong to Joss Whedon. This story is my own though.

Part Two
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Buffy went downstairs and helped Anna open the soup kitchen, just as she had done the past three days. She was serving toast and eggs to an elderly man and wishing him a good day, when she heard a familiar voice. "Hello. Prom Queen!", it was Whistler. Buffy turned away "I don't want to see you or hear you or be anywhere near you," she mumbled. "I know that," Whistler said "But you've got to tell me exactly what happened, I need details."
"Okay, Okay, will you promise to leave me alone, if I talk to you? I'll meet you outside at 10 after the breakfast dishes are done." Buffy sighed.
Anna notice Buffy looked a little upset as she dried the last of the pots and pans. But she didn't push her. Buffy turned to her and said "I am going for a walk, I'll be back soon" and she left. Anna prayed she would be careful. She went upstairs to check on Duncan.
"Okay, here are your sordid details, Whistler!", Buffy spit the words out at him. "Angel is gone, I told you I would do whatever I had to, I did! It's over!"
"What exactly happened? Come on Buffy, he was a demon that had to make it easier," questioned Whistler.
"Yes, that should have made it easier, but as the vortex was opening Angel's soul was restored. He told me he loved me and I, I ran a sword through him. Is that enough details for you or would you like to make me relive it again and again, like I do in my dreams every night?" By this time Buffy was yelling loudly, people were staring at her. She sat down on the park bench, tears rolled down her cheeks.
"His soul was restored before he went into the vortex?" Whistler asked quietly. "Yes" she replied softly.
"You're sure," whistler asked , looking puzzled. "I think this is the one thing I am most sure about in my life," she said sadly. "Thanks, for the details, take care of yourself, kid. I've got to go" and Whistler left suddendly. "I've got work to do, he said to himself.
Buffy headed back to Anna's it would be time for the lunch crowd soon. She wanted to help, Anna had been good to her. The lunch crowd was slow there wasn't much clean up. Buffy and Anna went upstairs to theri respective apartments. Buffy laid down for a short nap, her dreams were filled with Angel. His last words to her, the sound the sword made as she plunged it into him, she woke up sweating and crying.
Upstairs Anna checked on Duncan, he was sleeping in their room. She never got enough of looking at him while he slept, his golden brown hair fell across his forehead, she love him as she had love no other. They had been together since she was 17, almost 20 years now. He was everything to her as she was to him.
It was time for the dinner crowd, 5pm and soup kitchen doors opened. they served a large crowd of various people that night. It was getting dark when the last dish was dried and put away. "Go on upstairs, Buffy, you look tired" Anna smiled and watched her go upstairs.
Buffy went upstairs and tried to relax, she took a hot bath and even tried to read. But nothing worked, she went downstairs quietly, to see if there was anything she could do to help. As Buffy went downstairs, she heard sounds in the kitchen, her worst fears were realized, she would nvere escape them, there in the kitchen coming up behind Anna was a vaimpire. Buffy found a broken stool in the corner, she pulled off a leg to make a stake and charged into the kitchen on the attack.
She knocked the vampire over and was about to stake him. Anna was screaming "NO, Don't, Stop Buffy, don' hurt him!"
Buffy stopped in her tracks " What, Anna, do you know what he is?" She still did not let her guard down. "Yes, Buffy, I know what he is and who he is. Buffy meet my husband Duncan." Anna bent down to help Duncan up.
"Buffy, I know this hard to understand, he is a vampire, but not all vampires are bad," Anna started to explain. Duncan interrupted her "Anna, I don't htink you have to explain vampires to her. If I'm not mistaken she knows them well," looking at Buffy he says "You are the slayer aren't you?"
