EPILOGE TO HUMANITY…
I PROMISE THIS IS THE LAST I WILL WRITE OF THIS STORY LINE.
DISCLAIMER…I DON'T OWN THESE CHARACTERS, I DON'T GET ANY MONEY FOR THIS AND AALL THESE IDEAS COME OUT OF MY OWN TWISTED HEAD
Buffy looked into the crypt, it was a nest, apparently one that had pooped up overnight, she nodded over her shoulder and kicked in the door. Angel threw a couple of stakes and dusted two of the vamps before they had time to organize, two more came at Buffy, she kicked one, staked the other and moved in for the kill on a third that was heading towards Angel's back. Two more came up from the sewer entrance, there were seven in the room now, and four dusted at their feet.
The seven were circling with a nod, Angel attacked while Buffy watched his back, He snapped the neck of one, which only served to disorient the vamp, but Buffy took that opportunity to stake her, and then with a quick turn managed to hit the vamp behind her before he did any serious damage to her new sweater.
They fought together until there were only three left, three very strong vamps, two of them grabbed Angel, they had his arms pinned, he couldn't move, Buffy's back was turned to him, she was occupied with a vamp of her own, who just didn't seem to want to go down.
Faith took in the situation, and moved quickly, she dispatched the vamps hat was after Buffy and then the two of them went after Angel's attackers. They were dead in seconds.
"Faith, where the hell were you?"
"sorry, I thought you said the big crypt at south sunnycrest"
"No, we said North Dalecrest", Angel tried to be more annoyed, but he was too tired, Buffy and Faith were slayers, he was only human now, fights like these took a lot more out of him than he cared to admit.
"Hey, no harm no foul right?…we all good?"
Buffy looked at Faith, if anyone had told her two years ago that she would be trusting Faith enough to patrol with her again, well, she wouldn't believe it, but she did, she had been kind of forced to trust her in her third trimester, when Angel refused to allow her to patrol. Faith had proven herself, then and time and time again.
"yeah, we're good" Buffy brushed vamp dust off her new sweater and put her arm around Angel…she looked up at him with a look that still had the ability to move him. "home?"
"yeah, home. Willow must be going nuts with the twins, they've been holy terrors lately"
"she likes watching them" Faith smiled, in their private moments together Willow and Faith admitted that they wouldn't mind having kids of their own one day, but the relationship between them was still new, or at least, they managed to keep it feeling new, they'd been together for over a year now. the three of hem headed back to Crawford street.
Buffy had finally given in and purged her own demons from the place, and they had made it a real home. Willow and Faith had converted the two apartments above the shop into a beautiful single living space, and Xander and Cordelia were happy in their new house, although, with Doyle, their two year old son, running around, and another one on the way, they had been considering knocking through to the other side, and expanding.
But for right now…everyone was in a good place…except you know…that place was on the Hellmouth.
