INT – OLD MANSION – DAY

‘London, England – Two Months Ago’

An Old dusty mansion, every available inch of surface has been replaced with a vase of red roses – the thick velvet curtains are drawn as we come across to Ethan Rayne. He’s sat at a table with Drusilla.

ETHAN
Do you have the book

DRUSILA
Patience dear venus, can’t snap the trap to fast

ETHAN
The book

DRUSILA
Hush!

ETHAN
I don’t believe you know what you’re talking about

DRUSILA
Daddy’s been a very bad boy – the men in suits, the ones that hate him – they said to me back when it was snowing, that Grandmummy has his child! That he’s the reason she died!

Drusila stands and walks around Ethan, running her finger across his shoulder seem

DRUSILA
Angelus got poisoned then he poisoned her! All of them are dirty now

She slumps back into her chair with deep sorrow

DRUSILA
We used to have to much fun, like four children under the stars until he came along and ripped us apart

ETHAN
Who?

DRUSILA
Angel!

She stands again and makes Ethan jump as she slams her hands on the table in front of him, he shifts on seeing the nothing in her eyes

DRUSILA
He tore my family apart with his dirty ways and now I’m the only one left – so do something about it!
(beat)
He doesn’t love me anymore! His first child – now he loves them and I don’t play nice with the other children.

ETHAN
What are you suggesting?

DRUSILA
He tore my family apart did Angel, now I’ll do it to his – starting with you know who

CUT TO.

EXT – BALCONY – NIGHT

The glass doors shatter as Spike and Wesley tumble to the floor

Spike smashes Wesley’s face against the door frame before Wesley’s eyes go black and he smashes Spike face first into the wall before twisting his arm to the back

WESLEY
Not just your poems that are awful William

SPIKE
William?

WESLEY
Remember as a watcher I knew one hell of a lot

Wesley throws Spike into the air and over the edge of the balcony

WESLEY
Including how much something like that can hurt

He turns back to the room as Drusila steps out of the closet

WESLEY
It’s okay – we can go now

DRUSILA
Thank you kind sir

Starring….
…..

INT – AI HQ – NIGHT

ANGEL
You went for a drink? At starbucks in hell?

SPIKE
Err…

ANGEL
Sit down!

Angel physically sits Spike down, he stands straight up

SPIKE
This might’ve leaked out of your bloated head but you can’t tell me what to do

ANGEL
Fine, you don’t want to take orders then you don’t need to be a part of this team anymore

SPIKE
Yeah?

ANGEL
Yeah

SPIKE
Fine.

Spike smacks Angel on the nose

SPIKE
Don’t ever talk to me like that again

Angel grabs Spike and hurls him over a desk, jumping right up and smacking him in the face again

Kayla grabs Angel and slams him into the wall. Spike stand up cocky as ever

SPIKE
Ha!

Kayla grabs him and slams him into the wall

KAYLA
I’m just turned eighteen and your immaturity astounds me. Spike shut up and listen, Angel stop telling everyone to do something and that you have a plan, give them something to do and tell them the damn plan!

FAITH
I like her

ANGEL
She’s right we have to get on with this now. He’s stronger than any of us physically and he has a dark soul now, it just charges him – what he did tonight was just…

FRED
Another day
(hands papers to Angel)
Hot off the Daily Spreads website – photographs of two dozen crime scenes related to child violence – all have been family groups, sisters, brothers something linking them by blood

ANGEL
This isn’t Wesley

FRED
Yeah right

Angel hands the papers to Spike

SPIKE
Bloody hell!

FRED
What is it?

SPIKE
It’s not Wes – It’s Drusilla

WILLOW
Crazy co-co banana Drusilla?

SPIKE
No the other one

WILLOW
Oh
(beat)
Oh! That’s…that’s not good

FRED
You’re sure it’s her?

SPIKE
Check out the doll – she’s had it for years, travels everywhere with her. She lost it for a while back in Sunnydale, left it on a train – she even sewed her name into it. Then she went back to the station, killed the clerk and stole it back

CONNOR
Cute story – is this the same Drusilla who kidnapped Cody last year?

Everyone looks at Connor a bit afraid to answer

CONNOR
Don’t worry I’m not going to grab the nearest weapon and go hunt for her

ANGEL
Then, yes

Connor reaches over to the table and grabs an axe before rushing to the door and stopping still

CONNOR
I’m kidding

FAITH
I like him too

FRED
Angel what are we going to do?

ANGEL
(to Willow)
Are you done with Lilah yet?

WILLOW
I think Lindsey should be done by now

CUT TO.

INT – BACKROOM – NIGHT

LINDSEY
Lilah I need to know if that is absolutely everything – there’s no point in you holding back now because I have enough information to work around the fractions

LILAH
It’s everything – the one true champion. As soon as the champion kills the opposition then it’s all over, they’re human

END OF PART ONE

EXT – LOS ANGELES – DAY

Connor and Spike are walking along the road, kicking a can in front of them

SPIKE
You regretting it all yet?

CONNOR
What?

SPIKE
Asking Willow to completely unravel your better life

CONNOR
No.

SPIKE
Don’t sound too sure

CONNOR
It was a lie. This isn’t – at least I know now what I’m doing and I can choose it

SPIKE
Nobody chooses they’re own destiny mate, you reckon I’d have chosen such a crappy path that got me beaten almost daily?

CONNOR
Nothing’s predestined

SPIKE
Way to think I guess – as soon as someone tells you that something will happen, yeah it definitely will because all your focus will go on it
(beat)
That’s why your Dad’s gonna win

CUT TO.

‘Sunnydale 1997’

DARLA
You never think about it lover? The end of days – when it all comes down to it, who’s going to rule?

ANGEL
It doesn’t matter

DARLA
You don’t really believe that do you?

ANGEL
Why do you care what I believe?

DARLA
Because everyone has to Angelus, it’s what we do it’s who we are – even if you don’t like the answer, everyone in some twisted way knows the fate of the world and who’s going to come out on top
(pause)
Everyone knows it’s the vampires who’ll be living in the end

CUT TO.

INT – ANGELS OFFICE – DAY

ANGEL
Six hours until sunset – then that’s it, the battle goes on. You sure this is all accurate?

LINDSEY
All of it. You use the key to get in – you have the fight and then fate takes its course

ANGEL
I hate fate

LINDSEY
Got to admit – this whole destiny thing is starting to make a whole lot more sense – something Lilah said

ANGEL
Enlighten me

LINDSEY
Just – the three of us were sworn enemies and look at us now, the battle you’ve been waiting for six years if finally here and we’re all working together to take out one of your most faithful companions

ANGEL
Is this going somewhere?

LINDSEY
Just saying – don’t listen to destiny this time. If you want to win that fight, if you need to win it, then you will

Lindsey walks out of the office leaving Angel all alone and thoughtful

CUT TO.

EXT – HOUSE – NIGHT

KAYLA
Talk about your girls day out

WILLOW
This is the place

FRED
It looks so…

Fred makes a funny little shivering action before the girls walk forward

WILLOW
Don’t worry I’m all with the mojo and now that you got Wesley’s mojo back, which I way thank you for, we’re all spells a go-go

They all slowly edge into the house

WILLOW
Besides – they’re not even here

KAYLA
How can you tell?

FRED
She did a locator spell on the way over – that’s what the thing was in the car

KAYLA
I thought you were just having a seizure

WILLOW
Nope. None for me – hey did either of you speak to Faith?

KAYLA
Nope

WILLOW
Just figured you know, Faith like’s to kick ass and this is a pretty big ass kicking mission – I mean big with the ass kicking not kicking big asses, Lilah’s out of the game

KAYLA
Meow!

FRED
(awkward)
She, um, she said she has things she needs to do

KAYLA
Things?

FRED
(hard)
Personal things

Willow has wondered off on her own – she comes across an old spell book

WILLOW
Guys check this out

Fred takes the book

FRED
There’s six pages missing

KAYLA
I’m guessing these pages are important

Willow turns over the book, her eyes widen at the cover

WILLOW
This is the same book that I used to get Buffy back

FRED
Willow this is serious…

KAYLA
I think she already got to that page

WILLOW
We need to get this back I…I can do a scan find out what the missing pages are

CUT TO.

INT – LIBRARY – DAY

Faith walks over to the ‘History of California’ section and smiles at a picture of the mayor opening the library – the date being 1982 – her birth year.

FAITH
Wish me luck

Faith looks at the picture before that one, the mayor is using his hanky to clean the scissors

FAITH
(laughs)
Hated the germs…Parent’s

Faith walks off, happier

CUT TO.


‘Los Angeles 2001’

Angel is holding baby Connor in his arms, sleeping as Darla appears in the room smiling over them – as Angel wakes up she fades away

Connor begins crying

ANGEL
Hey hey little fella – what’s the matter with you huh?

Angel stands and begins to bounce Connor

ANGEL
Is it those nasty demons that keep chasing us…because you know I’m gonna kick their a…apples. I’ll kick their apples and then chase them away so they can’t hurt anybody – you like that plan?

CONNOR (V.O)
Hell yeah!

INT – LOS ANGELES BAR – DAY

Connor pulls drinking face as Spike simply rolls his eyes

SPIKE
You know, aside from you dressing my naked self, this is probably the first thing we ever did.

CONNOR
Thanks for reminding me about naked forty something’s

SPIKE
Forty? I was twenty seven when I died…that mean’s I’m…twenty nine now!

CONNOR
Sorry
(shot)
Bleugh! You make it sounds like we’re getting a divorce

Spike looks down at the table – running his finger around a puddle of spilt drink

CONNOR
Spike what’s up?

SPIKE
Nothin’ – nothin’

CONNOR
You suck at lying

SPIKE
Pretty much I’m leaving

CONNOR
That’s cool I’m sorta anxious to get back myself

SPIKE
Leaving L.A

CONNOR
What?

SPIKE
You know me – I get bored easily and…this isn’t my fight here

CONNOR
That’s crap! You think this is my fight? Because it isn’t I just chose to do this!

SPIKE
Yeah, well I’m choosin’ to leave alright?

Spike slams his shot glass down and walks out of the bar

CUT TO.

INT – ANGEL INVESTIGATIONS – NIGHT

WILLOW
This is serious

FRED
You think they’ll actually pull it off?

LILAH
I’m not putting anything past him – he’ll do it and Angel already knows

WILLOW
But…why children?

LILAH
Could you kill something that looked as innocent as a child?
(off looks)
Exactly – get into the mentality

FRED
But it’s so…it’s just…

LILAH
Evil?

FRED
I was going with impossible
(beat)
Lilah he’s going to raise an army of the dead

CUT TO.

EXT – GRAVEYARD – NIGHT

Drusilla is sat in a graveyard as if she’s at a picnic, she’s sprinkling seeds around the place as Wesley stand at the side mumbling a spell

Motuus vivere
(Dead, Live)

Axis boare natio proles
(Sky cry, birth my child)

Frigus sanguis, calidus, calidus
(Cold blood warm, warm!!!)

finus eternalus somnus
(end the eternal sleep)

The skies begin to roar and swirl as hands raise from the newly covered ground

CUT TO.

INT – HOSPITAL – NIGHT

Faith comes crashing through the side door to Tibby and Gunns room

LORNE
Don’t you knock?

She runs over to the other door – the two slayers are dead outside it as are many nurses

Suddenly they both rise and stare, yellow eyed, at Faith – they’re vampires, sired just the way Lilah was.

CUT TO.

EXT – ROADSIDE – NIGHT

The Slayer van is crumpled almost flattened at the side of a road where a tree has “fallen” – all the girls are bloodied, broken or in some cases torn – all four of them (three are still with Angel) spring their yellow eyes open

EXT – WELL OF SOULS – NIGHT

Angel is slowly wondering across the grounds thinking about how it’s all got to this point, it’s not even a threat to the end of the world yet somehow, to him, it feels like the end.

Sure, he’s fond of Faith, Fred, Lorne, Gunn – all of them but Wesley and Cordelia were his only true friends and now they’re gone.

He comes to the well, looking down into it – thousands, possibly millions of misty souls writhe around inside

ANGEL
Show time

Angel pulls the key out of his pocket and looks for a place to put it…

ANGEL
Weird

He looks around more – nothing. Suddenly the key lets out a burst of light which surrounds him and pulls him into the well

CUT TO.

INT – HOSPITAL – NIGHT

Faith and Lorne are holding the door closed as the Vampire-Slayers are fighting from the other side

LORNE
I don’t get it! Shouldn’t their powers be gone when they die?

FAITH
Two years ago sure – not anymore. Girl dies her powers just go, there’s nobody to take them

LORNE
That’s great – super strength girls with super strength

FAITH
It might be the fact this doors about to fall on me but that made no sense

CUT TO.

EXT – GRAVEYARD – NIGHT

Dozen’s of vampires fill the land, all lines in profile as Drusilla stands before them.

DRUSILLA
Rise and shine my pretties it’s time to play a little…
(concerned)
Grand Mummy

The sky is still roaring as lightning bashes around the city – Connor, Spike, Willow and Lindsey are walking with the three remaining slayers down the alley as a massive bolt of lightning smashes into the floor creating a small crater.

Everyone is thrown to the floor, staring back as the whole as a blinding white light beams from it’s heart – a figure rises from the centre

LINDSEY
My god…

SPIKE
Bloody hell!

CONNOR
…Mom?

FADE TO BLACK

INT – WELL OF SOULS – NIGHT

Angel reforms in the centre of a battered underground cave – water dripping down the walls, complete darkness all around

ANGEL
Nice décor

WESLEY
Isn’t is just

Wesley materialises in front of Angel

WESLEY
Didn’t really doubt that you would

ANGEL
You think we could save the talk for your eulogy?

WESLEY
Ah, so you’ve finally decided that you’re going to kill me

ANGEL
I’ll win if I want to win

WESLEY
Right, because you don’t believe in destiny

ANGEL
I believe in what’s meant to be

WESLEY
Let’s do this then shall we?

ANGEL
Ready when you are

The pair of them walk over to a wall and slide the daggers in, a small door forms and Angel pulls out a large old coin

ANGEL
Heads or tails?

WESLEY
You’re call

Angel tosses the coin into the air and turns it over on his hand

ANGEL
I call heads

Angel reveals the coin

WESLEY
Tails

Wesley places the coin back in the hole it disappears and is replaced by the cup of Shanshu – Wesley takes the first drink from it as two swords appear

WESLEY
Weapon of choice

He pulls both out and tosses one to Angel

WESLEY
On Guard

CUT TO.

EXT – ALLEY – NIGHT

Darla is stood, drowned in light as Connor steps up to her

CONNOR
How…this is one of his tricks

DARLA
No, Connor it’s me

Darla strokes her hand down his face

DARLA
The powers have sent me – they’ve seen the path and I need to be here for this

LINDSEY
I guess it makes sense being the battle is all centred around the line of Aurelius

DARLA
We have to win this battle – if Wesley gets the Shanshu, with the dark soul – he’ll become invincible, not human.

CONNOR
There’s an army coming

DARLA
Then I’ll fight, right by your side

The light around Darla finally dims as she takes Connor’s hand

DARLA
Lead the way

CUT TO.

INT – WELL OF SOULS – NIGHT

Angel and Wesley are circling each other with their swords in the air

WESLEY
What’s the matter Angel, can’t take the…

Wesley is cut off along with his hand, blood spurts everywhere before he bursts into laughter

WESLEY
What is it with you and the removal of hands?

Wesley raises the bloody stump as another hand grows back through – his eyes are dark as it gets

WESLEY
Idiot.

CUT TO.

EXT – GRAVEYARD – NIGHT

Connor, Spike, Darla, Willow, Lindsey and Kayla all arrive as the army readies itself

SPIKE
Let’s party

They all spread out into the crowd as the battle ensues

Drusilla grabs Connor by the throat and hurls him head first into a tomb, he’s knocked out on the floor

DRUSILLA
It’s so beautiful

DARLA
At least you own something that has that title

Dru spins round to see Darla

DARLA
Never touch my son again

Darla smacks Drusila into the floor, leaping straight back on top of her and pretty much repeatedly smashing her head into the floor

DRUSILLA
Grand Mummy!

DARLA
Shut up Dru

Darla boots her in the face

Spike launches off of a gravestone and kicks one of the slayer-vampires in the face as hard as he possibly can.

Willow tosses a stake into the air and throws up a bolt of electricity splintering it and shooting it into five of the vampires.

CUT TO.

INT – WELL OF SOULS

Angel flips over the top of Wesley and kicks him in the back before Wes grabs Angel by the arm and slams him face first into one of the cave walls

Angels mouth is spurting blood as Wesley snatches his sword from him and snaps it across his knee

WESLEY
What’s the matter champion…Too tired to go on?

Angel struggles to his knees and so the speech begins

ANGEL
Wes I know you’re in there – listen to me

WESLEY
You really think this is going to work?

ANGEL
Please, part of you knows that I have to win this – I don’t care about being human but this beast has to be stopped

WESLEY
Do shut up

Wesley swings the sword around and stabs it directly through Angel’s chest

In pain, Angel falls to the floor as the bloody blade is twisted out of him

CUT TO.

EXT – GRAVE YARD – NIGHT

DARLA
I never did understand why Angelus chose you!

Darla spins and kicks Drusilla in the face

FLASH TO WHITE

November 2001

Darla is in a bright white room – the oracles stand before her

ORACLE FEMALE
Darla

ORACLE MALE
You times have passed

ORACLE FEMALE
Yet we

ORACLE MALE
Feel that you deserve a greater justice for your deliverance

ORACLE FEMALE

ORACLE FEMALE
One to see, one to speak

BOTH
And one to be…

FLASH BACK TO.

INT – WELL OF SOULS – NIGHT

Wesley is stood over a bloody Angel, kicking him the chest

WESLEY
Why not fall on a stake Angelus – you have nothing to live for

*BLEND WITH…(*

Drusilla is about to scratch her nails across Darla’s neck as she crumbles to dust to reveal Connor who reaches his hand out to Darla

ANGEL (V.O)
Yes I do.

Angel stand and smacks Wesley hard as he can in the face, knocking him back flat to the floor

ANGEL
I have everything to live for

CUT TO.

INT – HOSPITAL – NIGHT

The slayers have broken into the room – Faith immediately stakes one of them before kicking another across the room into Lorne who screams in their ear before Faith tosses a serving tray through the air and beheads them

CUT TO.

INT – ANGEL INVESTIGATIONS – NIGHT

Lilah is sat across from Fred who keeps looking up from her book suspiciously

FRED
Do you want something?

LILAH
A coffee would be nice

FRED
Get it yourself

LILAH
What are you reading?

FRED
A billboard. What does it look like?

LILAH
I mean what’s the content?

FRED
About the battle of shanshu – something about the champion and how…

FLASH TO WHITE

INT – ANGELS OFFICE – HOURS EARLIER

LINDSEY
Just saying – don’t listen to destiny this time. If you want to win that fight, if you need to win it, then you will

He taps his hand on the table, leaving a note behind

Lindsey walks out of the office leaving Angel all alone and thoughtful

Angel pulls the paper over to him self

‘The Office has Microphones so here’s the deal – Let him win. Trust Me’

CUT TO.

INT – WELL OF SOULS – NIGHT

Angel is back on the floor, black and blue as Wesley beats him continuously

Wesley squats over Angel and stabs his finger into one of his wounds as Angel writhes in pain

WESLEY
What was that you said earlier? “If I need to win, I will”…I guess you don’t need this that much

From nowhere comes a blinding light as both Angel and Wesley are flung against walls and tied their by invisible force fields

The Oracles step out of the light

ANGEL/WESLEY
What the…

ORACLE MALE
Angel

ORACLE FEMALE
Wesley

BOTH
Your destiny’s are complete and the paths have forked – you both existed for this moment to bring every person you’ve encountered to where they are now. The true champion is revealed, he has won – the true champion is…

CUT TO.

EXT – GRAVEYARD – NIGHT

Drusillas ashes lift and swirl in the air as Darla bursts into flames before crumbling to dust – all of the vampires burst into dust

END OF PART THREE

INT – HOSPITAL – DAY

Silence fills the room

FRED
I can’t believe we got him back

FAITH
It’s amazing isn’t it

Darla and Connor walk out from behind a curtain

DARLA
He can see you now

They both walk out to see Angel lying in a bed

DARLA
He’s just resting

They smile over him as the life support machine continues to beep, Angel is breathing heavily

FLASH TO WHITE

INT – WELL OF SOULS – NIGHT

ORACLES
…Angel

ORACLE MALE
We offer you the gift of life

ORACLE FEMALE
A gift you have waited for so long is now yours

The Oracles raise their hands and build a light

ANGEL
Wait!

ORACLES
You don’t want your reward?

ANGEL
No!
(sad)
Give it to him

Angel looks at Wesley

ANGEL
Give it to all of them – forget about me and give their lives back to them. Everyone I’ve ever killed, everyone any of Aurelius has sired that is still alive, Anyone who’s ever been taken away or had their lives ruined through association with me – through coming into my destiny – help them all, cleanse them all, make them feel real life

CUT TO.

EXT – GRAVE YARD – NIGHT

Connor, Spike, Lindsey and Willow stand in amazement as the ashes of dozens spin into the form of humans as several children, slayers, Darla and Drusilla drop to the floor gasping for breathe

Drusilla looks confused yet sane, Darla smiles as she holds her hand over her beating heart

DARLA
He did it

ORACLE (V.O)
Very well

EXT – POLICE ACADEMY – DAY

Five months later (as in…if this were the may finale, this would be early October)

WESLEY
Just a few months

He smiles and kisses her on the cheek
