A solid Angel story with an ensemble cast plus Faith, obviously. Very good exploration of the characters and their respective weaknesses, and what happens when Angel Investigations starts to fall apart.

The story has a very strong (and quite plausible) plot with no let-ups in the action. The bad guy (semi-spoiler) is Wesley's father, a thoroughly convincing villain. And the Wesley/Faith subplot was great. Well worth a read.

A chilling start lead in to a HIGHLY engaging bit of work, I have to admit.

The twist with Faith being captured by an unknown attacker definitely brought in some intriguing plot elements to this story, but add in Angel’s currently Darla-obsessive-level personality and you made it clear that the group are up against some SERIOUS problems right now.

Your exploration of Angel’s disillusionment with his mission and his rejection of his team in his need to find Connor was definitely effective, and your take on Wesley’s father definitely created an EXTREMELY twisted villain (To say nothing of him being ridiculously self-righteous; I got the feeling that he LIKED the idea of there being no free will because it meant that he could do what he wanted and say that he wasn’t responsible because he was ‘destined’ to do it.

Admittedly, that last section about the prophecy is a BIT of a point of concern, but that’s the thing about prophecies; in the end, maybe it’ll turn out to mean something drastically different from what it SEEMS to mean at the moment...

Keep up the good work!(By which I mean, any chance of a sequel for this?

Absolutely awesome!

Okay, now this? THIS is made out of awesome. Yes, there are some typos spattered around, but the STORY LINE be still my beating heart!

Holy cow. Sequel? Please?

Gods, I loved this! You have such a feel for the characters! One thing that wasn't clear to me until near the end, was why Faith kissed Wes. That bit about anchors gave it sense, though. Fantastic job, I would love to see a sequel.)

right now u left if on a clifhanger u have to make a sequel to it! u have to!

bravo bravo completely briliant and well written story

this is a great story. ANd was the "there are four lights" thing a nodd twords Star Trek:The Next Generation? or maybe I'm just a hopless trekkie seeing things that arnt' there

Once again, I'm blown away. You're doing a sequel, right? RIGHT!

This has been one of the most, if not THE most, moving stories I have ever read. Within it, it holds heart, angst, conflict and in the end love and trust. It keeps your steadfast attention through till the end, and makes you beg for more.

That was just too good, loved the total excess of angst and the F/W thing, Faith and Cordelia slagging each other. You have to write a sequeal.

Awesome story! I absolutely LOVe the couple of Faith and Wes! Sequel please!

AWESOME! Beyond belief! Like seriously! I felt like I was watching the show while reading! I screamed Wesley and Faith and Cordy and Gunn and Angel and Fred, I whimpered, Igiggled, I shrieked, I swore, I got up and left the room when I read the body bag in the alley, walked straight out intot he yard and then came back inside chanting 'Cordy's not dead*L* My folks wondered what on earth I was doing Awesome awesome awesome fic! LOVE the F/W ship! Great work!

Misty, you are a goddess. This was great from start to finish. Be a love and write a sequel.)
