Chapter one: Welcome to the Hellmouth/The Harvest
It is September of 1996 in Sunnydale, Ca and its also Buffy first day at Sunnydale High school. The sun has just come up when Faith walks through the front door of her apartment at the Sunnydale Motel and Downtown Apartments. She close the apartment door then tosses her backpack that has her slayer items inside, onto her bed. Then Faith walks into the bathroom closing the door behind her. Across town at the Summers new house Buffy's is tosses and turning in her sleep. She is dreaming about an old vampire who lives in a church buried under the town. A group of younger vampires has follow a blonde hair vampire that is wearing a catholic school girls outfit, over to the older vampire who has just sat down on a chair.

"Master, the hurting went well last night and the group that went out with me last night, adding two dozens more vampires to your army."

"Did that slayer Faith give you any trouble Darla?"

"No, the other group that went out last night kept her busy the whole night."

"That good, but we have bigger issues another slayer has move to Sunnydale."

"The one that was chosen when India killed herself?"

"Yes."

"Let me kill this new slayer?"

Just then Buffy gets wakening up to the sounds of her mom shouting its time to get up sleepily head from the bottom of the staircase. Buffy sits up in her bed looking around her bedroom and at all the unpacked boxes still on her bedroom floor. Buffy gets out of bed and walks over to her closet, Buffy then open up the closet door and grabs her brown skirt, white shirt and light-blue zip up shirt to wear over the white shirt. She then grabs her black boot off the floor of the closet and walks over to her bed. Buffy set the boot on the floor and then set the outfit onto the bed. Five minutes later Buffy walks downstairs carrying her backpack and heads into the kitchen. Mrs. Summers walks over to Buffy and hand her daughter a glass of apple juice and two pieces of toast, Buffy drinks the juice really fast and starts eating the toast as she walks toward the back door.

"I will see you after school Mom."

"All right, behavior yourself and do not start any fights."

"Sure mom."

Buffy walks out of the back door and after shutting the door, Buffy starts walking to school. At the sometime Faith has just walk into the library of Sunnydale high school and see Giles is in the book cage shorting through a pile of old books. Faith's hops up onto the check out counter and sit down on the counter. When Buffy gets to school, she walks to the library to pick up her textbooks before classes start. Once in the library she sees a teenage girl with dark brown hair and brown eyes setting on the check out counter.

"Anyone here beside the girl my age, I am a new student and need to get my textbooks?"

"Hey G, the new Slayer is here and I'm a year old then you B!"

Mr. Giles walks out of the book cage and head toward the checkout counter. He smiles at Faith and Buffy when he walks past them and at the sometime he induction himself, and he heads behind the counter to get the slayer handbook.

"You must be Buffy Summers and I am Rupert Giles, your new watcher."

"Great."

"B you love it here we live on a hellmouth!"

"I'm no longer slaying Vampire's I quite!"

"You cannot quite, the Hellmouth is acting up B!"

"What Faith is trying to tell you Buffy is that the Master is due to rise any day now!"

The bell for the first class of the day starts ringing and Faith lets out a long sigh and gives Giles and Buffy a half smile. Buffy then notices the pile of textbooks on the end of the study table.

"Faith show Buffy to her class and Buffy the pile of textbooks that are at the end of the study table is yours."

"Do I have to go to class G, I was out all night slaying vampire and just want to go to bed?"

" Yes, Faith's you have to go to class!"

"Fine!"

Faith hops off the counter and at the sometime Buffy goes and grabs her textbook off the study table. Buffy takes her class schedule off the top of the textbooks and then she put the history, Math and English textbooks into her backpack. As Buffy is zipping her backpack up, Faith and her walk out of the library. Then Faith show Buffy where her locker is at and Buffy opens her locker. She puts the last three textbooks into her locker and closes the locker door. Then Faith leads the way to the history classroom and when the two of them reach the history classroom door, both of the slayers find that a group of vampires has taken the class hostage.

"Faith's who are these men and women?"

"The Master helpers that bring him his food and do what he tells them to."

"Oh"

"Lets Party!, B"

Buffy and Faith runs into the class and start fighting the vampires. At the sometime the vampire with blonde hair and who is wearing a catholic school girl outfit grab a boy with brown hair and pulls him out the window and into the park van that right outsides. The girl hop back into the classroom and say something to a young boy vampire. The blonde hair vampire jumps out the window again. Faith sizes up the vampires as she stakes the vampire she has been fighting and at the sometime the young boy hops out the window and gets into the van. And once the van door closed the van drives off.

"B, take the vamp out that holding down the red hair girl, I will get the vamp that is trying to eat our history teacher."

"All right"

Buffy runs up to the vampire that is holding the red hair girl down and pulls the female vampire off the girl. Buffy then pulls a stake out of her backpack and stakes the vampire through her dead heart, then the vampire busts into a cloud of dust and the dust falls onto the floor. Buffy's then helps the red hair girl up as Faith does a roundhouse kick to the head of the male vampire she is fighting.

"Thanks my name is Willow Rosenberg. You must be the new girl?"

"Hi my name is Buffy Summers, can you get the rest of the class out of the classroom and outside into sunlight right now?"

"Ok"

Willow's lead the class out of the classroom, then leads the whole history class to the first exits that she comes to. Once the class is outside in the daylight, Faith and Buffy kill the rest of the vampires. Then two slayers hear someone whimpering in the cabinet, Buffy and Faith walks up to the cabinet and Faith open the door. Faith and Buffy then see a boy with dark brown hair and brown eyes that has his arms wrapped around his knees. Faith's bent down and taps him on his left shoulder, which cause him to jump up and out of the cabinet. He looks around the room and sees that all the bad men and women are gone, Xander then smiles really big at Faith and the girl he does not know.

"My name is Xander Harris. You must be the new girl, so what your name?"

"My name is Buffy Summers."

"Xander great job hiding!"

"Thanks, Faith!"

"But the cabinet door would not have kept them out, if they want you!"

"The must have not wanting me then Faith."

"No, they just did not get the chance to get to you Xander because Faith and I fought them and sent them back to where there come from."

Just then Willow walks through the classroom door and looks at Faith, Xander and Buffy. Then both Xander and Willow give Faith and Buffy a look that says what just happened.

"(Willow and Xander at same time) Faith, there was something wrong with these girls and boys faces and they seem way too strong?"

"Fellow Buffy and I and Mr. Giles will fill you in on everything."

"The school librarian, will fill us in?"

"(Both slayers) Yes, Xander."

"Ok, Buffy and Faith!"

The four of them walk out off the classroom and down the hallway to the library. Once inside the library Buffy and Willow sit down at the study table, But Xander and Faith's stays standing. Then all four of them look over at the librarian, Mr. Giles.

"What happed Faith?"

"The Master helpers had our history class hold hostage and all of the Master helpers that did not leave when Buffy and I first got to the classroom are now dust."

"What is a vampire Faith?"
"What you were hiding from Xander!"

"Vampires, Demon, and other evils beings are real and both Faith and Buffy are the vampire slayer and the two of them slay them."

Giles then goes into a very long speech about vampires and demon that takes the rest of the school day and does not get done talk until the sun goes down and then is when Willow finally is able to say what has been on her mind for a long time.

"Slayer means one Mr. Giles, but Faith and Buffy would equal two!

"Yes, Willow there is normally one but in 1995 the current slayer of the time dead for a minute, but her watcher did CPR which gets her heart beating again, but she was dead long enough for Faith to be chosen."

" But how did Buffy get chosen?"

"Xander, you really want to know that?"

"Yes Faith!"

"The slayer who was brought back to life by her watcher during CPR meets me and no longer wanting to slay vampire and Demon and she was unhappy with her life. A few days later she killed herself, which cause Buffy to be chosen as a slayer and that how there are two slayers."

"Oh Mr. Giles I just thought of something else!"

"What is it Willow?"

"There was a vampire called Darla and she take our friend Jessie to a guy she called the Master. She said to tell the Slayers that if you want him back to come to the Master place tonight."

"Great my first day in a new school. I was just hoping that I will be behind in all of my classes, not having to kill vampires who have took my history class hostage."

"That Sunnydale for you B, I say that we go and get Jesse's back."

"No he will be dead by now. It's a trap, Faith!"

"That what make it fun B!"

"I am going with Faith, but keep your eyes open and do not try to take the Master out yet? We still do not know enough about him."

"Do we know where he lives Mr. Giles?"

"No, But base on the few times Faith has followed part of the vampire in the Master group, there always go to the same graveyard, but once at the graveyard Faith has lost the vampires she was following, because of a new vampire raise from fresh graves."

"So there could live anywhere in that graveyard?"

"They might not even live in that graveyard there are eleven other graveyards and cemeteries in Sunnydale B!"

"This is not good it could take us days to find Jesse!"

Just then a tall guy with dark brown hair, brown eyes and who is pale comes walking into the library and over to the study table. He stands behind Faith and Giles. Buffy, Willow and Xander's look at Angel, Faith's turns around and smile at him.

"Mr. Giles and Faith might not know where the master lives, but I do."

"Who are you?"

"He is a vampire that has a soul and he fight on our side and his name is Angel, B."

"What, in all my time as a slayer I have never heard of a vampire fighting alongside of a slayer and kill other vampire or demons!"

"It is true, Buffy. When I moved to Sunnydale, it was the first time in all my years as a watcher that I have work along sides of a vampire."

"Can I change in your office really fast, Mr. Giles?"

"Yes, Buffy you can go change in my office."

Buffy hops up and grabs her backpack that has a change of clothing in it, just in case she needed them. Buffy runs into Giles office and closes the door behind her. She then pulls the curtain down on the window. She pulls a pair of pants along with a black jacket out of her backpack, then changes into them. When Buffy comes out of the office, Faith, Buffy and Angel walk outside to Angel's car and then he drives them to the graveyard. Once at the graveyard Angel pulls his car in front of the mausoleum and they all get out of the car from the passenger's side and Angel walks them over to a door on the other side. The two Slayers starts to walk through the door, but Buffy stops and looks at Angel.

"Angel, you are not coming down with us?"

"No, they really do not like me dropping by, but take this cross necklace, Buffy."

Angle hand Buffy's the cross necklace and she looks at the necklace that is now in her hands and Angle look at Buffy with a worry look on his face. Knowing this could be the last time that he sees Buffy alive and he has just met her.

"I would put the cross on, you are going to need it down there."

"Ok, Angel!"

Angel walks over to Buffy help her put the necklace on. He then walks out to his car and takes off. Faith and Buffy go the rest of the way into the mausoleum and then start walk down the stairs. Faith turns her head and looks over at Buffy and then Buffy turns her head and looks at Faith. At the sometime a rat runs over both of the girls' feet.

"So B why did you and your mom move to Sunnydale?"

"Vampires take my old high school spring dance hostage and there were too many of them. So I set the gym on fire and get kick out of my old school. Sunnydale was the only school that would take me."

"Oh"

"Why did you move here Faith?"

"My first watcher was killed and the watcher council assigned Giles as my new watcher. Also the watcher council told us that a slayer was need here, so I moved here from Boston and Giles's move here from England. I was not going to go to school when I moved here, because I fail my ninth grade year in Boston but the watcher council and Giles made me take it over last school year here in Sunnydale because the watcher council said I had to finish High school. I personally hate school and miss as many days as I can and still pass."

"I hate school too."

"Cool now G will have someone else beside me to bug about going to class."

"Did you hear that?"

Before Faith's can answers Buffy back, Xander comes jumping out of nowhere and then he starts stumbles down the stairs. Faith catches him and then he looks up at the two slayers.

"Where did you come from Xander?"

"Well Faith, I have been tagging along behind the two of you the whole time."

"Xander's go back to the high school you will get us killed!"

"No, Jesse is my best friend Buffy!"

Xander's best friend since kindergarten walks up in front of the two slayers and Xander in full vampire face. Both the slayer pulls a stake out of their backpack and start walking toward Jesse.

"I was your best friend, now my new gang and I are going to kill all three of you!"

The Master walks into view and he walks right up to Buffy and Faith. The Master then starts fighting Faith and Buffy at the sometime, then his gang joins the fight with the slayers and Jesse start fighting Xander.

"How do you kill vampire Buffy?"

"Stake, holy water, cut their head off with an axe or sword!"

"I forget all of that stuff at school and at home."

Faith throws Xander a stake and goes back to fighting the Master. At the sometime Buffy is fighting off two vampires who have grabbed her from behind. Buffy's does a roundhouse kick and knocks down one of the vampire and then she stakes the other one. Buffy then stakes the vampire that she has knock down. Faith has just throw a punch at the Master but he jumps out of the way of the punch Faith has thrown at him and he kicks Faith off her feet. However, Faith gets right back up. Xander who still fighting Jesse's has his best friend back up against a wall.
"Where do I stake the vampire at Buffy?"

"In the heart."

The Master grabs Faith and throws her across the room and she hit the wall with a laud creaking sound. The Master then throws Buffy away from the two vampires she is fighting. Buffy's get up and runs at the Master and he grab Buffy again and throw her toward the staircase. Buffy jumps back up and pick up the Master and throws him over by Faith who takes a hold of him and then Buffy stakes the Master. A little boy walks over to the slayers yelling you killed the Master, now I will have to kill you.

"Faith's who this?"

"He is the Anointed one."

"He was in the classroom, and he took off with Jesse and Darla when the two of you come running into the room."

"How do you know that Xander you were hiding?"

"Saw it through a hole, which was in the door of the cabinet that was at eye level, Faith!"

"Oh, B get Xander out of here now there are too many vampires for him to hang here. I have got both of your backs."

Buffy grab Xander right arm and yell at him to run, they start running to the door where they come in at. Faith's stays behind to fight all the vampires. Once outside in the graveyard Xander and Buffy stop to catch their breath and both looks at each other.

"Should we wait for Faith to come out and join us, Buffy?"

"No, we need to get back to the library, she will meet us there. Beside it still at lest a hour or so more till sunrise and vampire do not have to go inside till the sun come up, lets go."

"Ok, Buffy."

Buffy and Xander runs out of the graveyard and toward the school as fast as they can, but Buffy as to keep stopping to let Xander catch up to her, since he does not have slayer speed or strength like she and Faith do. Meanwhile, underneath the mausoleum Faith is fighting a group of freshly turn vampires that are not putting up much of a fight. Which is good because she is really beat up and it feels like she has really messed up her back when the Master throw her into the wall. At the sometime Buffy and Xander are walking up to the steps of Sunnydale high school. When Buffy and Xander's have walked through the side door of the high school, the two of them walk down the hallway and right to the library. Once the two of them walk into the library they go right over to the study table and Buffy takes a seat on the table, but Xander stays standing and he starts walking around the library.

"Where is Faith at Buffy?"

"She will be here in a minute and the master is dead."

"I told you not to kill him yet, do you and Faith listen to your watcher at all?"

" No!"

Just then Faith walks into the library and over to the study table holding her back. She slower sits down on top of the table next to Buffy and looks at Willow, Xander, Buffy and Mr. Giles.

"G we had no choice he was trying to kill both of us and Xander was there. That why Buffy and Xander come back to the library before me, I told B to get Xander out after we stake the Master and I fight the vampires so that she could get Xander somewhere safe."

"Where is Jesse, Xander?"

"Willow, It was a trap, he was turned and he was waiting for us and I had to kill him."

"I am sorry, Xander."

Xander who has been pace stops and he kicks the trash can across the room, which cause the trash can to slam into the wall making a loud bang sounds that made everyone in the library jump and makes Faith grab a hold of her back again and even makes her starts to cry a little.

"I hate this and I also really hate vampires, Faith!"

"We all do Xander, Beside Angel!"

"Do you know that it is going on 6 a.m. Faith, Buffy, Xander and Giles?"

" Mr. Giles, Faith, Xander and Willow, I am going home to take a shower before school starts."

"So am I G, B, Willow and Xander and I am also going to Ice my whole body down."

"Faith's I am sorry, I should have check to see if you are hurt, when you walk into the library limp and holding your back."

" I will be fine slayers heal fast, beside getting beating up is part of the job."

"I will see you in class Willow, Buffy and Faith I am going home to get a few hours of sleep."

"Do not let the bed bugs bite Xander and I am going to finish my homework here."

" Your not normal Willow how can you do homework after being up all night?"

"I am too round up to sleep Faith and I do not want to go home and risk running into my parents' walk into the house, when I am supported to be getting ready for school."

"That is a very good point, Willow that is way I am going through my window, just like I did in LA."

"Faith and Buffy stop by when you get back to school."

"We will Giles."

Xander, Buffy and Faith walk out of the library and through the hall to the side doors of the school. Buffy and Xander then heads toward their parents' house and Faith heads to her apartment building.
