Andrew had whistled the entire car ride to the mansion. The silence was killing him, and he couldn't stop thinking about what they were doing at Atticus back at that place...
"Richard Simmons?! He's so gay!" Andrew shouted at Riley as they came up to the mansion. "And I will also see what Buffy has to say about your so-called 'Test Subject'! He has a name, and it's Atticus! You all need to leave him alone!"

After Angel had gotten his son away from that woman, he wasn't sure what to say to him. He didn't have a real reason for his actions...he just felt...strange around that woman. And Conner was acting weird...that was all that mattered.
He simply stated that Conner needed to stay away from that woman until Angel found out who she was and what she wanted. With that being said, he headed up the basement stairs, and then went for the stairs to get to the second floor, looking for Buffy.
Before he could even get to the stairs though, he heard a distant knocking on the front door. He sighed, scratching the back of his head as he headed in that direction.
When he came to the door, he opened it up only to see...the last person on Earth he wanted to see.
"Riley." he said, sounding more annoyed and serious then shocked or amused. He noticed Andrew standing by, and it made Angel wonder what the Little Watcher was doing with this guy of all guys. "Andrew come in, Riley...well...you can just tell me what you want and I'll see if I want to have anything to do with it." Angel's tone had gotten serious now.

Riley banged on the front door a bit harder than necessary, needing to get the hell away from this whining queen.
"Will you please just stop talking already? I still have the tazer, you know."
He knocked several more times.
"And Jesus, don't you have a key? I thought you lived here."
As he finished talking, the door ********, he thought. Just... ******** style="color: #006666">"You'll move aside and let me in so I can speak to Buffy. What the hell are you doing here anyway?" Riley said as he watched Angel carefully.

Oh this was perfect...just...a great moment for Angel. He leaned on arm on the door and smirked, looking up at the sun and then back at Riley.
"Oh, you need to see my girlfriend?" he asked with a slight grin on his face. "What for?"

Andrew took this swift opportunity to run into the house, and got behind Angel, knowing his strengths, even if he wasn't human anymore. Angel was a manlier man then he was anyway...
"Angel, they have Atticus captive!" he shouted as he pointed to Riley.

Three things hit Riley at once, one with the force of a cannonball to the midsection.
First- that little turd was going to get clocked in the jaw, first opportunity.
Second- Angel and Buffy were back together, and that hurt more than the thought of Spike touching her.
Third....
There was a beam of sunlight shining directly down onto Angel's huge forehead.
He murmured.
Riley centered himself, concentrating on the subject at hand.
"Like I said, I need to speak with Buffy. This simply doesn't concern you, and you know good and damn well that if she finds out you're stopping me -" he paused and grinned "-when your girlfriend is expecting me... she's gonna be pissed. So, unless your "manhood" is threatened by me, I suggest you move aside."

"You realize your words mean almost absolutely NOTHING to me?" Angel mentioned, speaking in a cool voice. "I just want you to know...before you waste your breath...YOU of all people can't make me angry." Angel shrugged. "A jealous Ex-boyfriend just doesn't have the same threatening effect as a normal person demanding to come in..."
Then it just clicked in Angel's mind at what Andrew had said behind him. "Atticus? Lorne has been looking for that guy for a long time! He passed out exhausted a few hours ago! What the Hell do YOU want with a demon hunter?" Angel was still not relinquishing his place at the door.

Riley pulled it out. He was tired of dealing with Angel.
"None of your -" tazer shock "business".
He grinned. Yep, human Angel. Evens the playing field.
Or not... Riley was nearly a match for Vamp Angel... He could surely take his a** out now.... And think of the experimentation!

Buffy waited on an answer, but Hope appeared to be in a trance. Then she was certain she heard Andrew's squealing voice, followed by....
No way.
She stood there uncertainly, not wanting to leave Hope with Kennedy, but not wanting Angel to find Riley there - Oh damn, too late, she thought, as she heard Angel say something about Lorne.
Oh.Hell.
She hesitated a split second longer, then turned and ran out of the room.

Angel let out a shout as he jumped back from the shock. He didn't fall on the ground, Andrew broke his stumble. In fact, the shock only increased Angel's anger, and he came back almost immediately after the shock with a punch right into Riley's face (right where Atticus had hit him, but he didn't know that), which sent him a little ways away from the mansion door.
"Go get Buffy. Now." Angel said as he pushed Andrew back and walked out of the mansion, getting ready to fight Riley...again.

Andrew nodded even though Angel didn't see him, and he turned and ran off, calling Buffy's name.

Riley was fairly certain his jaw was out of place... possibly broken.
He stumbled a bit, regained his balance, and watched Angel come outside.
"Bring it, you son of a b***h," he growled, raising both fists. This was gonna be fun.

Buffy ran past Andrew, brushing him aside, and flew out the front door, jumping in between Angel and Riley.
"What the hell? Again? Didn't I warn you two meatheads?"
She put her hands on Angel's shoulders, leaned up and kisses him, hard, on the mouth.
"Stop it, I need him."

"Need him?! For what?! More tazoring, that SONOFABITCH!" Angel said, losing his usual cool demeanor as he pushed passed Buffy and grabbed Riley by the shirt collar. Normally, he would've hoisted the human off of his feet, but considering how Angel was human now, and didn't have the strength, all he did was grab his shirt and pull him closer.
He reached down, yanking the tazor out of the man's hand and then struck him with it. Then he turned to Buffy and tossed it to her.
"Break it. I'm done."
