Disclaimer: I own nothing apart from the new characters that I did create.


It was about five years since the battle with the first but the Scooby gang hasn't really had a lot of time since that fight. Most of them have been all over the place like Italy, South America and even England before most of them headed to Cleveland cause of the hellmouth and something Giles said about the war not being over. In the end they set up a Slayer School in Cleverland that allowed most of the gang back together. Buffy, Willow, Faith, Dawn, Kennedy and Xander all ended up working there but Giles was being a little mysterious by staying behind in the UK. Buffy and Faith was working together to get the newer slayers up to standards as Dawn helped out with the new watchers as well as becaming one herself. Willow made sure that nothing magical happened the school or the people in it and Xander was in control of the building of any new buildings that were needed and make sure there was enough rooms etc for everyone.

Faith and Buffy took the new group of slayers out on partol but both kinda had a weird feeling that something was right, even though they were on the hellmouth it was something more that either could put their fingers on. Buffy turned to Faith and said "So I still don't think it's a great idea to take the new Slayers out with this feeling."

"Come on, B. What is the worse that could happen?" Faith replied but she began to think okay maybe they would all die and that would be a bad thing.

"Well they may not come back and well I don't think the council will it that much do you?" Buffy said though the girls will likely need to training against more the vamps before too long.

Buffy and Faith ended up in the graveyard before they found a few newibe vamps come out to play. Faith smiled as she turned to all the new slayers and said "So which one of you will be take on those newbies."

"Hey just cause we'll dead doesn't mean we don't care about being called names" The shortest vamp said as Buffy and Faith looked a little confused.

Two new slayers put their hands up before they went to fight them. The fight was kinda quick as the vamps seemed to be able to counter all of the moves that the new slayers had. The slayers managed to stay out of the way of the fangs as Faith and Buffy watch the fight with the other slayers. Buffy turned to Faith and said "You know we will need to step in sooner or later that about three times that a older vamp would have killed them."

"Don't sweat it, B. If they get too close to them we'll step in but they have to learn sooner or later that we won't always be here as back up." Said Faith Well I still hope nothing happens to them or it's my head on the chopping block.

Faith and Buffy them looked at each other as they had a feeling that they have had many times before. Both took stakes out of their jackets before they quickly killed the vamps that the new slayers were fighting. "Lession is over, now quickly head back to the school cause something a whole lot uglier is about to make it's way here. said Buffy as some of the slayers never looked happy about it but the fact that both Buffy and Faith was looked worried, they knew that it must be something bad.

The Slayers rush out of the graveyard as Buffy and Faith look at each other, "You think what the hell this feeling will be, B. I mean this ain't the first time we have done this thing but I ain't never felt something like this since ... well you know the big bad first." Faith said trying to make it seem less serious then it actually was.

"Well it's not as strong as the first but it really is make me feel worried for the new slayers, I mean we will be able to handle it... I hope." Buffy looked worried as they both tried to get a read on where this thing was coming from.

Suddenly they hear something coming from behind. Faith and Buffy turned to see Anya standing behind them, however given the fact that Anya die in the final battle with the First, it clearly wasn't her. "Well, well, well, looks like the gang is all back together and getting ready for a war no less. Pity I had to cut the lession short but well I didn't want to see the poor girls get hurt just yet did I."

Buffy looked as if she wanted to deck the next thing that attacked them before she replied "How dare you even wear that. I mean I thought your little sick fantasy of people in my life was over when we kicked your ass the last time."

"Oh poor little girl thinking that was the end of my plans then you are sadly mistaken. I did you really think I would take over the world without be able to be in this world."

"Hold the phone there big bad, what do you mean be in it. Ain't you meant to be a big ball of light or some shit like that." Faith said

"Or some shit like that, Faith. I have been planned this for long then the you two of have been on this earth and this time there will be no stopping me. Oh but I guess you should meet my new friend and well I just know that he will just as close to you guys as well."

Suddenly there was a crash behind them and Buffy and Faith stood as they saw what was a damon that was over eight feet and had some sort of red skin. Buffy and Faith didn't waste any time as they attacked the beast with all there had but the beast laughed as he blushed them off like there nothing. Faith managed to get the stake into the beast gut but it only seemed to make the beast mad as he grabbed Faith by the neck and lift her off the ground. "That isn't nice." The beast said as Buffy tried to get the beast to let go of Faith.

The beast swang his arm and knocked Buffy into a nearby gravestone as Faith still tried to break free of the monster. "Now I have to make you pay and I was such a good time playing with my new toys."

Just as the beast was about to slam Faith into the ground, an mysterious hoodie appeared and nailed the beast with a thunderous knee to the chin that knocked the beast backwards. The beast looked shocked as he ran at the hoodie but the hoodie was too quick and managed to catch the beast with a roundhouse kick that knocked the beast flying into a crypt. The hoodie was about to follow it the beast into the crypt then a shout came from behind "that's enough."

The hoodie just seemed to growl as he paced in the graveyard. Faith and Buffy got up the their feet with a confused look on their face as they turn to see Giles standing there before he said "Buffy, Faith I think we need to talk."
