Chapter One

William The Bloody

The night was young and there was a heavy dampness in the air.

Spike strut down the streets of Sunnydale on his way to the bronze to meet up with the

Scoobie gang.

He spotted Buffy in an ally way nearby fighting a vamp 'Slayer!' he yelled

'I don't have time for you now' spike shook his head and smiled

'You can't keep pretending it never happened' Buffy chuckled, 'what happened spike,

We kissed once and you automatically think there's something there?' she started to walk

Towards the back entrance of the bronze 'one day slayer, just you wait' spike said as he

Adjusted his coat and walked behind her.

Willow squeezed Taras hand nervously 'so faith...What uh brings you to sunny D?'

Faith leant back in her seat and lifted her eyebrow 'I came to finish off, kill Buffy'

Willows jaw dropped 'chill will' she laughed 'I'm picking up my little sis'

Willow didn't feel so nervous anymore she was more curious than anything.

Spike and Buffy arrived and made themselves comfy, xander laughed

'Platinum king still following you buff?' spike just sent him a glare.

Buffy was to fixated on faith sitting on the couch opposite her to listen to xander.

Tara Leaned forward 'so, is she um' faith looked at Tara 'is she..?' she folded her arms

Tara continued 'is she a slayer?' faith laughed 'yeah she is, but she's never had a watcher

So I guess not' Buffy leaned in 'so that means she could help us to right?, I mean we need All the help we can get' faith frowned 'No, leave my sister out of this B, she's never killed anything she's only sixteen for Christ sake!' Buffy looked aggravated

'Look we need more help, if your sister needs training Giles can tutor her!'

Faith beckoned Buffy closer and whispered in her ear 'the day dawn gets eaten by a hell beast, is the day my sister will slay' she smiled. Buffy got up and stormed off with

Willow, Tara and Xander following close behind her.

Spike rolled his eyes and rest his head on his hand 'Bleedin idiots.'

About an hour later a girl that resembled faith arrived at the bronze,

Faith pointed out to spike 'hey that's my sister Nicole, took her time'

They looked very alike except Nicole had more female features and bright green eyes.

Faith called out to Nicole and the little brunette made her way across the dance floor

With her hands full of what looked to be books 'babe' faith said with out stretched

Arms 'how was your flight' Nicole put her books down 'it was…amazing!'

She smiled 'I got to read for five hours strait!' faith nodded 'awesome….' She said

Without a hint of enthusiasm.



Spike peered at the books 'what ya reading love' Nicole hesitated to answer

'this is spike, an er old friend' Nicole smiled 'okay' she handed him the book

'I'm reading poetry' spike smiled 'ahh I see I'm quiet the poet myself, who's your favorite poet pet?'

Nicole looked at the book she still had clutched tightly in her hands

'you probly wouldn't know him' still having a tight protective grip over the book

Spike lifted his eyebrows 'him ehh? Do you fancy him' he said lauging

Nicole blushed 'well he is quiet handsome' spike flicked through the book she put on the table 'well your conversations really interesting, but I think Im going to go dance now'

Faith said before jumping over the couch and jogging to the dance floor.

Nicole opened her book and started reading spike could here the occasional sigh and a smirk as she run her hand along her thigh.

Spike was surprised she felt this strong about poetry 'so pet, you going to tell me who this poet that your infatuated with is? Nicole looked at him she bit her lip,

'if I tell you, you cant laugh okay?' spike was grinning.

Nicole handed him the book 'be careful please, it's one of a kind' spike looked curiously at the book, it looked so familiar 'so who did you say this guy was' Nicole leant back in her chair 'William the bloody' then it hit him the book looked so familiar, because it was his!

Very surprised he asked her where the book was from Nicole crossed her legs 'I found it in an antique shop in London, I payed about 100 US for it' she smiled while looking at the book 'but it was worth it, I mean look at the handwriting he must have had beautiful hands' spike smiled a mischievous grin 'you think about his hands?' Nicole giggled

And run her hand along the antique book 'id love to know what he could do with them'

She said while daydreaming in her own little world 'wouldn't you just' spike said

Grinning to himself Nicole just looked curiously at him.

She yawned and rubbed her eyes, she had fallen asleep reading books again.

She smiled, she always had nice dreams when she fell asleep reading poetry,

She bounced out of bed and trotted down stairs to make herself a hot chocolate,

She heaped about three tablespoons of chocolate and took a sip forgetting it was hot.

She jerked her head towards the sink and spat the hot chocolate out, 'shit!' she whispered

Under her breath, she hated when you burn your pallet with hot chocolate the burn still burns like hell three weeks later 'god damn it!' angry at the chocolate for burning her she poured it down the sink.

She headed back up the stairs to find faith, and wiped her milk covered hands on her shorts 'faith..' she whispered 'Faith..which room are you in' she continued she heard a grunt, she couldn't tell if it was someone snoring or something els, she slowly opend the door and closed it behind her, 'faith?'
