Tears of the Soul

`Ow! My head hurts like fucking hell`, was the first thing that came to Xanders mind.
He tensed a bit but then relaxed when he felt two strong hands softly massaging his temple. The pain seemed to be faiding away.


For some reason his brain screamed at him to open his eyes, to get up and to get the hell away from where he was however he couldn´t remember why and he felt so damn good at the moment, that he saw no reason to do that.


Then Xander noticed that his bed usually never was this soft and comfortable like it was right now. That is why he had to be dreaming, and what a nice dream it was.


Normally his dreams weren´t so nice and pleasant like this one.
In the majority of cases, he is waking up in the middle of the night screaming,
after he had another terrible nightmare.
Xander really hated going to bed to sleep because of the horrific dreams he had then.


Most of the time he is short of sleep because once he is aroused from a nightmare,
he is too afraid of going back to sleep again.
But this dream right now seemed to bean exception.


He carefully began to open one of his eyes and was a bit confused when he was seeing himself in a mirror.
`Why am I seeing myself, while I´m sleeping in my bed`, Xander thought.
He then noticed that the reason he was seeing himself, although he was sleeping was
the following, there was a mirror on the ceilling.


But he really couldn´t remember having a mirror in his bedroom on his ceilling, so
he came to the conclusion that the ceiling in this room was not the ceiling from his own bedroom but that from his private dance chamber and that meant that he was still
at work which of course also meant that this wasn´t a dream.


Curiosity then got the better of him and he fully opened both of his eyes.
At the face he saw then, a face he had thought he would never see again, everything came back into his mind. He was waiting for two customers and pouring some drinks,
when he saw them; Angel and Spike.


"Oh shit", Xander exclaimed.
Spike and Angel are here, they have come for me, he thought appaled before he jumped
up from the couch, where he had been laying on, with his head in Spikes lap and his feet in Angels lap.


As fast as he could he ran acrosss the room to the door, grabbed the doorknab and pushed to open it, but it didn´t yield an inch. He tried it again and again and again with all his might but the door stayed closed.


Xander, who was now pressed as tight as his body would allow it against the big
metall-door, tried to stay calm and took a few deep breath , so he could think clearly.


He knew that he wasn´t able to open the door because it was secured and he really wasn´t strong enough to break trough it.
Also he couln´t call for help , the room was soundproofed. As a result he was
trapped in this chamber.
He then turned himself slowly away from the door.

Panic started to rise again inside Xander, as his eyes caught sight of Spike and
Angel who were both sitting on the couch, and he only thought;


`Oh my god, I am in a room with Angel and Spike alone and there is nowhere I can go. They have found me again, after all those years. Angel and Spike are probably here to finish what they started a long time ago. They are here to finish me.
They are going to kill me. They are so going to kill me!"






Please, please review!
