Author's Notes: Although u don't deserve this chapter to be posted that soon, since no one is encouraging me, but I posted it for "TweenLove'n'Hate" Enjoy. P.S. Italic is Buffy or Faith thoughts

Boston

Buffy felt tired, she was walking on the street for four hours now, she didn't thought Boston is that big, it's nothing like Sunydale. She remembered the time she ran way to LA., and the idea hit her at once. Angel, she could call him and ask for his help. She searched her pockets for some change but she couldn't find any. The best time to be broke. Her blood was boiling; all she wanted is to see Faith again. Payback is a bitch. For now she will sleep on a bench in this park and tomorrow she will think of something.

Three days in Boston, THREE FUCKEN DAYS, she's hungry, tired and need a bath. Buffy was on the edge, she didn't know what to do. There is only one thing to do, she will beg for money, she watched people walking around her, and she spotted a decent looking man and approaches him. She was humming three words to her self "I can do it" over and over. She stood in front of him and tears start streaming, she can't do it, she can't.

I can't take this any more, GOD I can't, I'm hungry and tired and police is every where it's like the whole town work in the police. God, I must really ask for some money. I can ask this lady with the kid she seems like a nice lady, but what can I say. Please give me some money, no I sound like mugging her. I'm hungry could you give me dome money.

Buffy approached the lady, but when the woman sees her, she grabbed her son and start walking as fast as she can. Buffy stood in the middle of the street crying hysterically and shouting at every one around her. "Please, someone give me any money, please". Her attitude makes the things worse, people start running away and she saw a police officer running toward her.

Buffy ran as fast as she can, she found her self in some dark alley, full of people who look very strange, there cloths were dirty, they smell very bad and they look very tired. She looked to her reflection on some shop glass and she knew, she knew that they look like her. She lowered her head and walk through the alley, her new home.

SunnyDale

Faith was sitting on Giles home surrounded by the scoopy, they were discussing Adam situation. This was all new to her, she never been treated like this even when she became a slayer. They were all listening to her, waiting for her orders, flashing there smiles to her. No not her, they were doing that for Buffy. Just for Buffy, but she is Buffy now and this is her home. They put there plan to attack Adam and they were saying there goodbyes when the phone rings and Giles went to answer it.

"Giles, what's wrong?" Faith asked with concern, the look on his face was not good.

"Its Faith, she's died" Giles said with very low voice and they all stop breathing

"What do you mean by died? Didn't you say the council took her for some kind of rehabilitation program in England?" Faith said tears are threatening to fall

"There was change on the plans, they sent a special team to finish her and they inform the success of their operation"

Operation, what fucken operation? I was operation for them and...oh my god, Buffy...what have I done...what have I done, I killed Buffy, I killed the only person who really care, I killed the slayer, the one that instead of planning on running away was planning on saving the world...what have I done...I'm stupid, fucken stupid, I'm murderess bitch...I'm a killer, I'm a killer.

At this point Faith was sitting on the floor sopping like a child, they all gathered around her, willow take her in her arms in a furious hug, surprisingly Faith accepted and buried her head on the chest of her victim best friend and sopped tell she passed away.
