Chapter One

I lost my life the day I died. I know how stupid that sounds, but it's true. I died. My friends grieved. Bad things always happen here. I used to live in a world of demons and death, and then I moved to L.A. I was an esteemed member of Angel Investigations. "The Brain" I worked there for two years before we were all offered a contract at Wolfram and hart, the L.A Branch, or as it is better known "Evil Incorporated".
We all said "yes" in about two minutes. Me as head of science. Wesley as "Bookman" Gunn as a lawyer. Wasn't that just a shock to the system? and Angel as CEO of Wolfram and Hart. head of Evil Incorporated. Oh and Gee, what happened at the end of my first day? Spike, a vampire who died closing a mystical convergance in Buffy's hometown, showed up. As a ghost, even. Oh, and he also as a soul. After a little while he got corporealized. Something I had been trying to do for months. And it happened by mail! I personally feel kinda ripped off. Or yay. Whatever. A little while after that Lindsey, an ex-Wolfram and Hart lawyer with a personal vendetta against Angel showed up with a shiny new name "Doyle" someone Cordelia and Angel used to be friends with. He used to get visions. Like Cordy. Actually, i think they said the visions were his and he passed them to her before he died.

Spike, was doing his Dark Avenger thing with "Doyle's" help. Eventually Cordelia woke up form the coma she had been put in. We were all very happy to see her. She even helped Angel get rid of Lindsey! But as it turns out, The Powers That Be were just letting her have her last "hurrah"
And she was dead. One more down, huh?

I was to be next. I was curious an I touched it. The sarcophagus blew some mummy dust at me and I was infected. Infected with "Illyria"
She was one of the first beings to walk the earth. She died a very long time ago, she's not meant to exist, not now, not instead of me....
Her awakening was predestined, she still has followers on this earth.
She was helped. By Knox, someone I thought to be my friend. He chose me. He chose me to be hollowed out and slowly painfully murdered.
Illyria was hollowing me out, my skin hardened. I started to talk to her. I don't think she listened. Not even to my last words "Why can't I stay?" as I never got an answer. I was gone. It was mere seconds before she took over my body. Made my hair blue, my skin too.
