Faith walked through one of the Sunnydale cemeteries looking for a little vampire action. It had been three weeks since she burst out of jail and so far she'd managed to avoid the scoobies. She new that patrolling would be a bad idea because if Buffy saw her there was no saying what would happen. Faith knew she had to do her time in prison and she felt guilty about breaking out but she couldn't stay there when people were trying to have her killed. Nobody had warned her about anything going on but she knew something was up and that if she didn't get out of there someone might get lucky and that'd be the end. The whole time she'd been in Sunnydale she had been following some of the scoobies trying to figure out what was going on. They kept having lots of young girls from all over showing up at Buffy's place and she had no idea who they were until by coincidence she picked up on a conversation Giles was having with Willow while she was lurking in the bushes one night. "They are potential slayers from all over the world and they are being killed off one by one" he had said "I don't know how many more are going to show up but we have to protect them no matter what, something bad is coming Willow" Faith had stopped following them and reflected on the words 'Potential Slayer'.
Faith had been a potential slayer herself once until she was called so she decided to start patrolling and keeping an eye for anyone who might be potentials. Faith heard a growl and then a scream off in the distance.
A Young redheaded girl walked at a hurried pace down the street next to the cemetery at the far end of Sunnydale. She heard some heavy footsteps then a loud growl, she turned around and was confronted by a group of 4 big vampire that looked liked they had been sired at a bikers bar. "Hey there should you really be out here alone don't you know this town has a bad reputation". The girl screamed as all their faces morphed into their vampire faces. The girl started running but then a man in a hood appeared in front of her stopping her in her tracks. He lifted his hood and she saw that his eyes were gone leaving just scar tissue on his face where the sockets had been sewn up or something, then he pulled a curved blade out of his robe and raised it above the girl.
"Huh?" was all the girl said before the bringer stiffened and fell to the floor with a sharp piece of wood imbedded in the back of his skull. The four vampires stared at the dead body of the bringer before advancing on the girl once more. "You don't scare me," the girl croaked out but her own voice betrayed her. Suddenly a voice came from behind them.
"You know I think you guys are from out of town because in case you haven't heard there is a slayer running this town" they all turned to see Faith approaching with a stake in her hand.
"Yea we know but we seen the slayer and you're not her" Faith flipped over the group and landed in front of the girl in hopes of keeping the vamps back from her. "Nice moves not gonna help ya though" the vamps advanced towards her.
"Oh really well we'll just see about that" Faith swept her leg at his feet causing him to trip over then spun around and drove the stake into his heart. "Next!" the last three rushed her and she kept her own as best as she could, kicking, punching but they started to get the upper hand. Faith thought it wasn't going to end well until a look of shock appeared on two of the vamps faces as they looked down and each saw tree branches sticking out of their chests. They dusted revealing the girl standing there. The last vamp took off running but Faith wasn't having that so she threw her stake and it hit him right chest causing him to burst into ash mid run.
"Wow my first vampire kills" she girl said with pride as Faith turned to face her.
"You wouldn't by ay chance be looking for the summer's house would you?"
"Yea, I'm Jess".
"I'm Faith, welcome to the hell mouth, I guess I better give you an escort".
