Author Note: This is just a little short story. I would love comments though. I'm not sure whether to finish it or not.

The next morning Willow headed out for Giles house. Faith followed protectively behind. The house looked like it had not been maintenance in years. The yard was full of junk and clutter. The car that sat outside looked like it had not been moved in ages.

"Your friend is the last slayer's watcher." Faith asked.

"Kinda," Willow answered as she rang the door bell. The two heard the sounds of something falling in the house.

When the door opened Willow was surprised by what she seen. She knew that this version of the world was different, but Giles was a wreck. He squinted as if the light was hurting his eyes. "What do you want," he snapped.

"You are Rupert Giles," Willow stated.

"Yes, What of it," Giles answered.

Willow began, "Well you were Buffy Summers watcher, and …" Giles began to close the door in Willow's face. Willow stuck her foot in the door . "Hey!"

Giles pulled the door back open, "look miss I use to be a watcher…. Not anymore." He tried to further push her out of the way and close the door.

Faith shoved the door open and pushed Giles back into his apartment. "Look the girl just wants to talk to you. You can give her five minutes!" She then turned to Willow, "I thought you said that this guy was your friend."

"He is sorta…" She looked around the apartment it was covered in booze bottles. It reeked of filth and alcohol.

"I'm listening" Faith replied as she crossed her arms. She couldn't wait to hear what was going on between these two.

Giles finally spoke up, "Anyone here have any scotch??"

Willow eyes fixed on Giles. "What happened to you??"

"Bloody hell," he yelled. He fell back down in his seat. "Angelus murdered Miss Calendar….He..He killed my slayer." He began to sob. "I couldn't protect them. I couldn't stop him." He looked up, "I think I have more scotch in the kitchen." He got up in search of scotch.

"Giles I come from a different place where that didn't happen. A place where we are friends, Buffy is alive, and angel isn't evil. I want everything to be that way again," she called after him.

He walked back out of the kitchen staring in her direction. "Okay, I get it now this chick is nuts," Faith added amused. "Sorry for bothering you man. I will just let you get back to..uhh ..Whatever is you do," She wrinkled her nose and began to push Willow towards the door.

"No, I'm serious. Giles have you ever heard of the Web of Fate and a creature called Nessa," Willow informed Giles in a last attempt to get his help.

"Faith, wait," Giles motioned for them to come back. "Miss…Ummm.. "

"Willow, just Willow," she replied. Faith let her go over to Giles.

"You said that the web of fate and Nessa," Giles squinted at her and put his glasses on.

"I was looking at the web, when the creature Nessa came and offered to show me a different world. Do you know of the web? How do I stop this?" Willow pleaded with Giles.

"Well, you have to finishing seeing what the being wanted you to see before the spell can be broken. Do you know what that is?" Giles said as he grabbed a book with a picture and description of the web.

"She just left me here there with this note. It's a list of names." Willow offered up the piece of paper.

"Well, then you have to see these people and hope that is enough to break the spell or make Nessa come back. You can take this book with you," Giles said handing Willow the book about the web. "I wish you the best of luck, now if you don't mind I would like to be left alone. Good day Miss." Giles shooed Willow and Faith out the door.

"So you are really like from another dimension or something," Faith inquired. "You have a list of people you have to see."

Willow handed the paper to Faith. "Well the next one on here is pretty easy but the last three may pose more of a challenge," Faith retorted looking at her watch. "We only have a few more hours. We better get going then. This Daniel Osborne hangs out at a place called Rafters. It's kinda like a club but it closes up a hour before dark. "

"You're going to help me," Willow questioned.

"It's better than dancing with the stars or American Idol," Faith smiled. All Faith normally got to do was patrol, slay, and watch tv. There was nothing else to do in this town. It was kinda nice to have a friend.
