Wake me up, before you go...

Whatever had been driving my body around for the last God only knows how long, was gone. It was the baby, it had to be. Even before Connor and I, even before we did what we did, it had somehow been there. I could feel it squirming around, just below the surface. Leave it to me to think my problems were to small to acknowledge. Don't worry about ( Read more... )

Angel's kid led us right to Cordy. I have to admit, at first I didn't think he was gonna and maybe I'd have to beat the snot out of him sooner then I thought, but, in the end the kid came through.

I don't know what Wes was lookin' for. He said we needed to keep Cordy safe but somethin' told me he was overly curious 'bout that baby of hers. He couldn't help it. No matter how hard Wes got, he would always be curious I thought as I glanced over at him on the way up the stairs. His face was like wax, completely expressionless. Well, I could be wrong. Maybe he didn't really give a damn about much of anything. Can't say I blamed him.

Connor kicked in the door. Smooth but unnecessary. If he was showin' off on my behalf, it wasn't workin'. Cor was tryin' to sit up when we got in the room. So much for being unconscious. I guess that was a good thing. 'Cept, she really didn't look happy to see any of us. I get that a lot from this group.

Connor was extremely flip about Cordelia's well-being. That didn't bode well. Recently, whether she was good or bad, she had been all that he had been devoted to. Without her, then he would most certainly lose his edge and turn to whatever passions motivated his violently-charged mind. At the moment, now more then ever, we needed to stick together, with Gunn, Fred and Lorne killed, and with the Beast, Angelus and other vampires walking around the city twenty-four hours a day.

I, for that very reason, turned my attentions upon Cordy.

"Yeah kid, you called it. 'Sup Cor?"I hadn't filled Faith in upon everything that had happened with Cordelia, and she was also a bit flip about this, although I was fairly confident that she was ready to assist in any way possible, as long as it was helpful ( ... )

It was Connor alright. I could tell by the head splitting crack of the door and he kicked it in. Not to mention the hostility I could see on his extremely blurry face. Man, if I can see any kind of expression in this condition, you know it's gotta be bad. I should have figured he'd still be mad at me for sending him away.

"See, I told you two that she would be fine in here."

The words didn't quite come out like that. Or, they did, but it wasn't the way I heard them. It went more like Sei old ooto atshe woodbe fine in ere. So much for getting my scenes back right away. Hell, what did I need them for anyway? I'd probably just find out none of this was real anyway. I mean, wasn't I suppose to be in a coma. Or at least I was thirty seconds ago.

"Yeah, you called it kid. 'Sup Cor?"

Yaoo cldit kids upcore. That one was a littler harder to translate but from the sound of the voice, I got the gist. Faulty hearing or not, I'd know that was Faiths voice anywhere. So who was the other one? I squinted, and squinted and squinted some more and ( ... )
