Challenge #3
sired by: Briony Cain & Rehatha

Timeline: after Darla was resurrected but definitely before she and Angel did their mattress tango.

Darla captures Angel and Buffy. Doesn't want to give Buffy an easy death, even if it is in front of Angel because Darla still wants Angelus back. ( and Angelus did seem to be obsessed with Buffy too, but his obsessions fade once the girl is turned. ) Plan is to turn Buffy, give her a soul ( or maybe she keeps it )

So, Darla turns Buffy.

Casts a spell to oust Angel and get back Angelus.

Darla plans to spend decades happily torturing the Slayer turned vampire with "her boy".

Only things don't turn out quite as Darla intended since Angelus doesn't want her anymore.

After all, she did ditch him with that pesky soul for 100 years. But does Angelus want either one of them? Or worse still, does the demon want the Slayer still.

Challenge #4
sired by: Briony Cain & Rehatha

Instead of going to the tower after her resurrection, Buffy goes to the mansion and is hiding there. She's horrified, scared, thinks she's in hell. Can't understand, maybe can't really hear clearly, everything being too everything, bright, loud painful.

Willow and co., thinking they've failed and Sunnydale falling to biker gang from hell call Angel to save them. They can't fight them all, they can try but badly outnumbered here and no muscle, which means Angel either is back from Tibet already or never went.

He comes to town, maybe does the fight thing, takes care of the bikers but there are more monsters in town than the bikers. He goes to the mansion for a last look around and finds grave-fresh Buffy huddled in a corner crying, with the bodies of various demons and piles of ash surrounding her. Other monsters came after her but she's fended them off, thinks she's in hell. She's nearly maddened by what's happened to her.

Will Angel save her? Or abandon her to the friends that forced a living woman to dig her way out of her steel coffin and her grave.

Challenge #23
sired by: Morganna & Wicked Insanity

Timeline: After the ending of both BtVS and AtS
Rating: R/NC-17
Pairings: B/Aus, possible B/Drac in the beginning (It's up to the authors).

Drac finds Buffy in Rome and turns her. She has NO soul. Whether she sticks with Drac and lives it up or takes off on her own is up to the author. Buffy is EVIL. I always thought she had the potential to be one of the darkest characters in fandom if she were ever to switch sides so to speak. I would also like to see a return to the feisty, quippy, happy Buffy. She can still be evil with a sense of humor ;o)

Angel turns into Angelus in the battle in LA. How is up to the authors. He either finds out about Buffy being turned and goes to look for her or he goes after her just for the hell of it. Again it's up to the authors. Lots of fun and games ensue after they meet.

Must Haves:

You can include none, any or all of the following:

Challenge #32 "Parasite"

Type: AU
Rating: R to NC-17

Basic Plot/Background Information:
In a time where Lords and Noble men rule the world and mystical dangers plague man, an elite group of warriors was selected at birth to serve the lord and protect the kingdom. Angel and his "warrior brothers" were raised in seclusion knowing that they were special, told that they were supernatural beings. Their strength, healing abilities and cunning reflexes were far greater than any mortal man in the lands.

What this small group of warriors (you choose the army) don't know, is that the source of their powers come to them from Elfin princesses which are bound to them in servitude, thus giving them superior strength and healing abilities. For each warrior a beautiful and ethereal elfin princess is bound to them until their death, where a new princess is called to take her place.

Angel has always been stronger, and more cunning then the rest. Using his strength he often serves in the front lines of the battlefield, and takes the most damage. Darla, the princess that was bound to him at birth, can no longer sustain his life force any longer and feels herself dying as her powers drain until there is nothing left. As she lays on her deathbed, Angel can feel his "borrowed" strength, power and healing abilities diminish with each day that passes. After an especially life threatening injury Angel is forced into a rest bed where his own life lay balanced on a delicate line.

Desperate to find a new princess that would be powerful enough to sustain Angel, they hastily choose the young Buffy. She is the youngest princess that was enslaved to them, and is already showing great power. What they didn't know is that they inadvertently bound Angel to his soul mate, which will have unseen consequences on the fate of both the warriors and the Elfin kingdom.

Once Angel is well again, he sets out on a mission to find out why he lost his powers and why he feels stronger now than he ever had. He's plagued with dreams of a blonde princess who calls out to him in his dreams and haunts his waking thoughts. What he discovers will shatter any concept of power he was raised to believe in.

Plot Requirements:
1) Darla must be the original elf assigned to Angel.
2) There is a prophecy that entails the binding of a warrior and his soul mate; the child that they create together will forever break the bind that enslaves the elfin princesses to their death. This "child of the light" will grow to rule the kingdom and bring peace between the lands.
3) Once Buffy is bound to Angel, they begin to share dreams, making Angel start to question everything he's been taught.
4) The connection that they share is unlike anything the "powers" have seen, so they take Buffy into seclusion so that Angel does not come into contact with her. Does that stop him? No.

Little things to incorporate into the fic:
1) A crystal pendant.
2) Fairy dust.
3) A moonlight riverboat ride.

Type: RW/AU
Rating: NC-17

Basic Plot:
Angel is a vampire with a soul who started fighting the good fight on his own volition. He now resides in LA and is the head of Angel Investigations, a detective agency dealing with strange cases. So it's actually no wonder that the mysterious, sexy and skimpy-clad Buffy literally falls into his arms.

And it's no surprise either that Angel soon realizes what a gem he caught because Buffy is special in more ways than one. Not only is she the princess of Oden Tal, but she's the first female of her kind to escape slavedom and the neutralization of her true power.

Since her first taste of freedom that Angel's world offers, she's been on a crusade to save the other young women from her world. But what happens once she meets Angel? Is he just another temporary distraction? A challenge she can't resist? Or is there more to this brooding, dark avenger who defends his world?

Plot requirements:
1) Unleashed vampire passion is a destructive force. Meaning, Angel can't have sex with humans or half-demons because he would break them. The only way to have "safe" sex is with vampires, but they shun him because his soul disgusts them.
2) Buffy trying to seduce Angel into his bed and Angel trying to resist because he fears he'll hurt her.
3) Angel accidentally touches the ridges on Buffy's back. It arouses her and results in her ridges heating up. In this state her ridges are used to arouse males and show her consent to mate, but Angel doesn't react like any other male. It pisses her off.
4) Smelling Buffy's arousal is more potent for Angel than her ridges heating up.
5) Wes walking in on 2 of Buffy's charges (2 young women from her world) in a compromising position.

Little things to incorporate into the fic:
1) A pet panther called Quickie.

With no food, clothes or shelter they find themselves working together with much reluctance from both of them.

Angel sees Buffy as a spoiled brat, Buffy sees Angel as an arrogant playboy. Underneath the hatred they feel for one another, they both try to tame the building attraction that their close proximty and lack of clothing creates.

4) Buffy & Angel being under the influence of the "potion" and can't stop touching each other... needless to say the storm ends.
5) Buffy blaming Angel when she wakes up naked the next morning, Angel thinking she's beautiful when she's furious, blushing and naked.
