Angel remained out just long enough for Willow to get through safely first. He dove inside a split second behind her and shut the door, although he had no idea if he'd be quick enough or not; whatever that thing was, it moved surprisingly fast. He nodded at Willow, indicating that she could go help Anya while he...watched the front and hoped nothing broke through. His fingers curled around the handle of the axe. Skuld was a rare stroke of luck, to be sure.

They couldn't stay here forever, though. Big monster aside, they were inside a fridge. He lacked the body temperature to properly feel the cold, but Willow and Anya were a different story.

"We need to find the way down," he said. He'd look for it himself except he didn't want to take his eyes off the entrance just yet.
