Premise:Faith and Angel have to deal with a prophecy,yada yada yada. jusst read it.

Prologue (angel) It had happened so fast, first I was taken back at the seriousness of her tone, then at the way she grabbed me, and the way she demanded that I kill her since it was I was here to do anyway.

We struggled, I broke a wrist, and she flew into the glass window. I remember thinking "this is it; finally I take a slayer down.....

Of course I had killed many slayers but this one was different, she was special. She had a fire that was similar to my own you could call it a need for destruction. We struggled for what seemed like hours, never once holding back, I pushed her into the brass cabinet into my right. Her blood spilled all over the white carpet.

"Give up yet?"

She smirked defiantly "never"

she lunged for me but missed as she flew into the vanity behind me. Turning, I saw she had shattered the mirror. Her reflection was a modest one; she looked as if she had been defeated.

"How about now?"

She huffed at me, checked her lip for blood and then smiled smile I knew all too well.

"It's over." she said. "I lose you win. Kill me now."

she pulled back a piece of her long blonde hair," kill me now angel."

She was begging me to do it and I wanted too but I knew the consequences oh so well of killing a slayer.

"Go home Buffy. Go back to sunny dale. Back to spike."

"So you're just going to let me go then?"

"Yes."

"I thought the evil angel was more torrid than angelus, what happened?"

She taunted me.

"I don't know. Maybe it's this still having a soul business. Or maybe your not who I am after."

She nodded finally understanding that I was after faith, not her. She could back to her wonderful life in sunny dale with the rest of her lackeys and leave me the hell alone. I was no longer interested in Buffy; she was now spike's sloppy seconds. She looked at me in disgust.

"Faith, faith, faith! That's all I hear from you angel! When are you going to give up! She is a rouge slayer, not on the side of good anymore!" Buffy sputtered.

"She can be good! It's in her. Just like it is in you to be evil!"

"Do you really believe it?"

"Yes, it's just a matter of time."
