Comment: Alastor, for once, finds HIMSELF in a tight spot, and Angel saves his butt?

Alastor had dealt with many punches in his life before, but this demon had tough wrists. He didn't know how he ended up there. One moment he was on a date with Angel. He watched Angel leave to go to the bathroom. He remembered his drink tasted funny. Then nothing. Then he ended up here.

Chained to a wall, shirt flung to one side, tape over his mouth. Then a lion demon, a kangaroo demon and a duck demon came out of nowhere and began to rain punches on his chest, face, legs and neck.

He was in too much pain to even summon up his demonic side. Hands grabbed his hair and yanked his head up. "Nod or shake your head," the kangaroo demon said. "Are you dating Angel Dust?" Alastor nodded the best he could. "We have something we want you to do." Alastor was beginning to dread what he was going to say. "Break up with him." Alastor yanked his head back, shaking his head madly.

They shrugged, and it began again. Alastor was in and out of consciousness, and when he woke up one time, they weren't there. Instead, Angel was. "Hey, Alastor," he whispered, bringing his face close to Alastor's. "How did you get here?"

Alastor mumbled behind the tape. Angel leaned over him and unchained him quietly, making hardly any sound. "We better get you out of here before they get back," Angel whispered, helping Alastor stand and taking him outside.

A car was waiting, and they both got in. It raced off, heading straight for the Happy Hotel. Alastor couldn't keep his eyes open and passed out.

When he woke up, he found Angel gently dabbing at his cuts and bruises. "Morning," he said.

Alastor stretched. "Hello," he said, wincing at the pain in his jaw. "I always thought I was going to save you. Guess I was wrong."

Angel winked.
