Lilah looks to the floor, not wanting to see Angel's reaction. "Sadly...no. That cyrstal is a decoy.....You killed the daddy demon, but you also pissed off the mummy demon with the real crystal who is coming at us right now!" Lilah picks up the crossbow and takes aim, while moving away from the direct path of the hideous creature.

Angel rolled his eyes with an exasperated sigh. He knew for sure now this was a trap by Lilah. He said there was no reason whatsoever to trust her and he was right. He fell right into the trap, and brought Xander with him.
"Let me guess," Angel said. "I'll be meeting his cousins and nephews next?" He shrugged, approaching the demon. "Nothing like family reunions."
He ducked another attack and, now a bit used to the demons' methods of fighting, found it easier to get an opening and was able to get a few jabs in. But this time, the demon wasn't interested in just Angel and glared at Xander...Xander and the 'fake' crystal he was holding. Angel concluded again that there was something Lilah wasn't telling them...AGAIN. While Angel looked in the direction the demon was looking in, he wasn't prepared for the back handed smack the demon laid on him, which sent him to the ground. Immediately afterward, the demon started charging after Xander.
"Xander! Look out!" Angel shouted. Angel morphed and tried getting up as fast as he could. He made a mental note for himself to kill Lilah again for putting Xander in danger.

Xander noticed that the demon was staring at him. Xander looked down at the crystal then back at the demon, then the crystal again and then the demon. "Aww crap" he cried. The demon began charging at him.
"Xander! Look out!" Angel shouted.
Xander began running, fortunatly the demon was slow and couldn't turn as fast as Xander could, it ran straight into the wall. It hit its head on the wall with quite some force. It fell to the ground unconscious.
"That's handy" he said.

Angel growled, about to pounce, his yellow eyes glaring when the demon ran into the wall. Angel snapped his head towards Lilah and advanced towards her, his fangs bared. Angel promptly grabbed her by the neck and slammed her against the wall.
"Alright. Something tells me that you're not looking out for our best interest. Kind of strange for someone that's supposed to be on my team. So remember that whole deal about you explaining? You apparently weren't finished. So start again.....now." He said, his voice low and grave. He wanted to know what really was going on. If it was a trap, he wanted to know why Wolfram & hart would bring Lilah back from the grave for it. What was her role? And was he too far deep into this trap that he would put Xander in danger? Being caught up in life-threatening danger isn't the ideal way Angel would say 'hey nice to see ya again' to an old face.

"Angel...the powers that be sent me back to earth as a gift for you, no trap, no secrets. They believe that because I was murdered by Jasmine that I am crutial to stopping Wolfram & Hart. I have changed Angel..being hunted down in my own office and forced to live in the sewers isn't exactly a trip to heaven."

"Not mcuh of gift, hey do you come with a receipt so he can return you? Cause I'm siding on Angel with this one, I think it's a trap as well."
Xander stared at Angel for a short while, with a look on his face that said 'what are we going to do?' He was starting to hate himself for coming along. He knew that Angel would be beating himself up for putting him in danger, and if Buffy ever found out....Both of them would be dead.
"Well we're here anyway, may as well see what 'The Powers That Be' have in store for you" he said. He walked over to the demon and began sawing off its arm with his knife, unconscious wasn't good enough for him.
"So, the crystal is inside this one?" He asked.

"You keep singing the same old song Lilah." Angel said, voice low, his grip tight around her neck, emphasizing his seriousness. "You keep saying you've changed yet all I hear is one misleading word after another coming out of your mouth. Why don't you quit the games, huh? You might already be dead but there's nothing stopping me disassembling you like your demon friends here." He unmorphed, but his face was still serious. "Did I make myself clear?"
"Well we're here anyway, may as well see what 'The Powers That Be' have in store for you" Xander beckoned.
Angel kept his grip on Lilah for a moment longer, glaring at her intensely and making sure he was 'clear', before letting go and going to Xander.
He looked at the demon for a moment and then at the torso of the dismembered one. "They're connected somehow." He gazed at Xander, a bemused expression on his face. "This demon wasn't looking at you, but the supposedly fake crystal you were holding." He paused. "The first crystal maybe useful to us too."
Angel took out his own knife and carved the torso. Sticking in his hand, he bit his bottom lip as he fished for the crystal. Even he had to admit this was disgusting. Finally he grabbed it and pulled it out, his hand covered in slime.
"We have what we came here for. Lets go." He stood up right, looking suspiciously at Lilah. "And we don't come back until we know what we're dealing with."

As soon as Angel fished out the second crystal they both started shaking violently and glowing.
They floated out of the hands of Xander and Angel and into the air and dancing around and circling around through the air, the glow was getting bigger and bigger. It was a magnificent whitish glow with blue orbs.
The crystals disappeared but the glow didn't. "It looks like a door" Xander said, "but a door to where?" He asked.

You might already be dead but there's nothing stopping me disassembling you like your demon friends here. Did I make myself clear?
"Oh, we are as clear as crystals...and speaking of crystals looks like its our lucky day." Lilah looks down at the dismembered demon. "Ooohh ouch...thats nasty. Angel would you do the honors? Lilah smiles as she glides to the side, out of the demons path.
You know Angel, I never was a singer...I tried...but then I decided to become a lawyer and help the helpless..you know what I mean. Right? But Angel...you wouldnt dismember me...you know why? Because you need me, no matter how big your vampire ego is, you just can't admit it to yourself."
Lilah watches as Angel dismembers the demon and pulls out the crystal. She glides more to the side when they don't notice, then as the crystal shines it was her perfect opportunity. The lights then returned and Lilah was already at the door.
"Thanks for the help guys, couldnt't have done it on my own....I'll send you a postcard yeah?" Lilah grimmaced, then started walking through the door of pure brightness. The door shined brightly, then once the light stopped, the door was no longer there.

"What the hell was that?!" Xander yelled, it was obvious that Lilah had tricked them and this made him furious.
"Do you wanna kill her or should I?" He wasn't going to wait for an answer cause he was going to kill her anyway.
"Ok, lets go back to the hotel and do some research or whatever and see if we can find a way to find her". Xander began walking in the direction to the hotel, planning on using the sewer access.
