You've heard it all before, Joss is God, he owns everything, blah, blah, blah. The only reason I'm still calling him that is because he's bringing Angel, Spike and Dru back next season.

Prologue
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As I leaned on the bus seat, I tried to block out all thoughts of the nightmare that had only happened a few hours ago. I thought. Then I chuckled. God. If there was a god, then how could he do this to me? Hell, I had saved humanity so many times, wasn't I entitled to one fucking moment of true happiness without repercussions? I had killed him, and he hadn't even known why. I had killed Angel, not Angelus. MY Angel. I mentally interrupted myself.- I had to get away. I had to get away from it all. Away from the memories that seemed to now haunt every aspect of my life. I had to start a new life, a vampire free life. I had to forget. I had to forget it all. A lady that had sat beside me at the last stop asked:
"What's your name, sweetheart?"- she had gray hair, warm brown eyes, and looked about sixty. I thought. I new life... that meant the end of Buffy Summers, vampire slayer. That was exactly what I had wanted. Buffy Summers was dangerous. She had killed her only true love in cold blood. And he hadn't even known why... Angel...
"Your name is Angel?"- the granny asked. Oh god, I must have said that last part out loud.
"No, um, Angela. Angela, uh, Capulet!"- that was nice. Name yourself after one of the most tragic characters in literature. But Juliet had been happy. She hadn't been the one that killed Romeo...
"I'm Liz."- she said in a faint accent.-
"I'm touring the usa now. It's a nice country."
"Yeah."- the old lady was chatty, but I needed to get distracted.
"So why are you here?"
"I'm, running away. Starting a new life."- I said, smiling.
"Something tragic happened to you. Somebody nicknamed Angel was in it all."- Damn, the old lady was shrewd.
"You wouldn't believe me if I told you. I have to get away... Otherwise, I'll be worse then Drusilla. If I don't forget, I'll go crazy..."- I whispered. I thought.
"It can't be that bad."
"It's worse. So now I said good-bye to my old self, and am going to Los Angeles."
"It's a dangerous city for a young lady like yourself."- she said quietly.
"Not as dangerous as me."- I whispered, barley audible.-
"I don't want any more trouble." Angela didn't. Angela didn't have to fight, to save the world, to kill HIM in order to save the world... Angela was a normal girl. She left it all up to somebody else...
"I hope you succeed."- Liz said, smiling, as she got off on the next stop.
"I will."- I told myself.
"I will."
