"WILLOW WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?" Faith screamed. She grabbed the redhead by the collar and brought her fist to her face but was pulled away by Buffy.
"Faith! Stop! It was an accident!" Buffy reassured her. Faith narrowed her eyes at the redhead and grabbed her cigarettes heading outside. Buffy signed and looked at Willow who was pretty shook up. "Buffy, I had no idea that this would happen..."Willow started.
"Its ok Will, I mean its...I...Willow I don't have slayer strength anymore and even when I was the slayer I still got ill. Remember when I had the flu years ago. Its gonna be ok, we will find a cure"
Willow shook her head and looked down. "Buffy, that spell was pretty powerful, stronger then the one that brought you back. The only way you can be cured is..." Willow paused and looked worried.
"What? What is it?" Buffy asked.
"Buffy, I shouldn't even be telling you this, I mean its crazy but...There's a place well more like a portal to another dimension and if one slayer is willing to hand over their slayer strength to another..."
"No way, I could never ask anyone to do something like that!" Buffy interrupted.
"Where is it?" a familiar voice asked. It was Faith. She was stood at the back door smoking on a cigarette. Buffy frowned at her and shook her head.
"No Faith! There is no way! Your not going...to...do.." Buffy suddenly collapsed to the floor and blacked out.
Willow and Faith helped to pick her up and Faith picked her up in her arms.
"Ok Red, Spill!" Faith said.
"Faith, you don't understand, this place...it is too dangerous..."
"No, you don't understand! I am not going to stand by and watch B die! She...I...She is the only person I have ever...Just tell me where this place is! I don't care what I have do! I wont see Buffy die! I cant!" Faith felt several tears run down her face.
Willow's eyes widened as she realised what Faith was saying and what she also wasn't saying. She would die for Buffy and she loved her. Willow had no idea that Faith had feelings for Buffy. She knew they had a slayer connection but nothing more.
Willow nodded and wrote an address on a post it note. "Go to this address and ask for access to the Healing One, when you get in explain that Buffy needs to become a slayer again and you will be put through several trials. I don't know what these trials are Faith so be careful..."
"I got it!" Faith replied taking the post it note and making her way out of the house. Willow ran after her.
"Faith, I don't think you understand! Once you go into the trials..."
"I get it Willow, there's no going back" Faith replied and made her way out of the house holding Buffy close to her chest.
Willow watched as the brunette slayer left with Buffy. The witch swallowed hard. Would Buffy be cured? Would the Healing One offer his help? Would Faith survive the trials?
