Disclaimer: I don't own Buffy, or Faith or any other characters from BTVS. If I did I would be acting out stories not reading or writing them ;) .
Reviews very much welcome but please be gentle – it's my first time... lol.
A/N This is a redo of the original first chapter, not much has changed, and I just made it less chunky to read and added a few bits of descriptions.
After some of my early reviews I changed some of the way I was writing so this matches the rest of the story better. (If all goes to plan I'll post the original chapter as ch13 for any one who is interested to see the difference)
They all thought she was an ordinary girl. They thought wrong. Buffy was The Slayer… well now she was A Slayer, since The First had tried to take over Sunnydale, and then the world. Things were a little different.
A group of three vampires surrounded her, she high kicked the first straight in the head, and roundhouse kicked the second, they both flew back in separate directions.
The third vampire paused then turned, starting to run off, only to find a group of young girls standing behind them.
"What's going on?" he questioned, a look of fear creeping across his face.
"Them, that's the potentials" she replied, pointing in the direction of the younger girls.
"Potential what? I hear you ask" she quipped.
"Potential slayers," she continued "except there actually slayers. Which makes you slayed" she chuckled as Vi threw a stake directly into the vampires back through to it's heart.
The other vampires got up, Rhona flipped over the top of one of the vampires heads turning to face him and staked him.
Kennedy took on the last of the vampires, and promptly kicked him into a gravestone and staked him.
Faith chose this moment to appear, "Ah damn B did I miss all the fun?"
Buffy turned and smiled and said "Well we've slayed all the vampires for tonight I think, but how 'bout some breakfast"
Faith smiled at Buffy and winked at her replying, "What about taking care of the second H?"
"Well for now I want Pancakes… I'll let you know if I need help with the second H".
Before Faith could even consider a flirtatious reply, Kennedy interrupted with "Uh Original Slayers, were tired and were gonna go home and get some sleep, hope you guys enjoy your breakfast".
"Of champions" giggled Vi whispering under her breath.
"Hey" shouted Buffy –"Slayer hearing remember!"
"Run Vi, quick she doesn't like to think everyone thinks her and Faith are together…" laughed Kennedy grabbing Vi's arm and starting to jog away from Buffy and Faith.
As the 3 potentials jogged off into the distance Faith turned to Buffy and simply just said "Breakfast?"
"Breakfast" Buffy nodded.

Buffy and Faith sat in 'The Breakfast, Lunch & Tea Diner' or BLT's as it was mostly known. Buffy was adding cream and sugar to her coffee.
Faith blew the steam away from the coffee, paused and looked at Buffy "'sup B, you've been quiet since the cemetery".
"Nothing F, was just thinking" Buffy sighed.
"What about B, or you not gonna tell me what's on your mind" questioned Faith,
"Just about what Kennedy said…I mean I know we joke around but we're straight, do people really think were sleeping together?"
Faith paused and said, "Uh, actually B – I'm not."
"What?" asked Buffy,
"Straight… I like girls as well as guys" Faith answered.
"But you've never mentioned dating girls" Buffy said.
"Well it's not often I mention DATING anyone, 'Get some, Get gone' remember." Faith replied.
Buffy's heart skipped a beat, she hadn't been completely honest with herself when she said she was straight, she wasn't attracted to women, apart from the connection she felt with Faith.
She couldn't count the number of times she'd nearly kissed Faith whilst out patrolling or when they had sat at home watching films together, but she had just never had the courage to come on to Faith.
She had always at the last minute backed away thinking that Faith would freak out and it would ruin the friendship they had taken so long to rebuild.
"Hello Earth to B, don't freak out on me, I didn't think to say anything to you…" Faith sighed.
"Sorry wasn't freaking – my best friend is gay remember? Just thinking bout something," Buffy said quickly not wanting to upset Faith.
"Oh yeah?" Faith smirked "And what was that?"
"I'll have to tell you later breakfast is here" Buffy chuckled "and I'm hungry".
"Okay but only coz these pancakes are actually amazing!" Faith laughed eating a forkful of pancake.
