Angelus turns around and starts heading towards the nearest cemetery and Faith follows after him. Once they get there Angelus stops.

Angelus "Well looks like we are going to have quite a fight tonight."

Faith "What do you mean?"

Angelus "There are at least eight newly turned vampires buried in this cemetery."

Faith "How do you know that?"

Angelus turns and smirks at Faith.

Angelus "Because I can hear them starting to rise, I hope you brought your stake Faithy, you're going to need it."

Suddenly a hand burst through the dirt, and is quickly followed by another hand, until finally the vampire has managed to dig himself out of the ground. Faith turns her head to see 6 more vampires starting to dig themselves out of the ground. Faith runs forwards and stakes the first vampire in the heart before he pulls himself fully from the ground. The vampire turns to dust instantly and Faith turns towards the next vampire to see him fully out of the ground and staring at her cautiously. After a few moments the vampire attacks her. She is able to put the vampire on the defensive, when all of a sudden she is hit from behind and sent tumbling forward. She goes into a roll and quickly pushes herself back up to her feet and looks to see that a blonde female vampire has join the one that had attacked her. She chances a glance over at Angelus and sees him leaning up against one of the nearby mausoleums. She sees that one of the new born vampires is trying to sneak up on Angelus, but before the vampire evens gets close enough Angelus reaches up and breaks off a branch of the nearby tree and throws it at the vampire, piercing his heart and turning him into dust. Faith then returns her attention to the two vampires in front of her and sees a third vampire has moved to join them. She rushes forwards and kicks the middle one in the chest sending him flying backwards onto the ground. She then back hands the vampire to his left and sends him spinning away. She then uses the momentum of her swing to turn herself around and punch the blonde female vampire in the face. The blonde vampire falls backwards, Faith rushes forwards and bends down and stakes the blonde, she then turns around and throws her stake at one of the other two vampires piercing his heart. She then rushes towards the original vampire she was fighting and begins punching him in the chest and face. She kicks him in the chest again knocking him down to the ground grabs another stake and kneels down to stake him in the heart. She looks back over towards Angelus and sees him bang the head of another vampire into the mausoleum and then grab him and throw him into the tree and into the remains of the branch the Angelus broke off earlier killing the vampire and turning him into dust. Suddenly, Faith is tackled to the ground and finds the last vampire on top of her. He grabs her arms and holds them down and starts to lower himself down onto her neck. Until Faith slams her head forwards and head butts him in the face. The vampire stumbles backwards giving Faith enough time to reach over and grab her fallen stake and stake the vampire. Faith then looks over to Angelus approaching her.

Angelus "You seem to be a little rusty their Faith, maybe you should join the rest of the potentials when Connor's teaching them."

Angelus laughs.

Faith "I'll be fine, but look whose talking, I thought you said there were eight vampires, I seem to recall only seeing seven. Maybe you're going deaf in your old age."

Faith watches as Angelus steps towards a fresh grave and watches as he kneels down and rams his hand into the dirt. Angelus then pulls the eighth vampire out of the ground grabs the stake Faith had thrown earlier and stakes the vampire. Angelus then stands up and walks back towards Faith.

Angelus "Eight."

Faith 'Whatever let's get moving, I'm itching for some action."

Faith turns to leave the cemetery.

Angelus "Well you know Faithy, if you really want some action I'm more than happy to give it to you."

Faith quickly turns back around to face Angelus, quickly getting into a defensive stance. Angelus just smirks and walks right next to Faith.

Angelus "I'm not going to hurt you Faith, not unless you ask me to that is."

Angelus then walks pass Faith and starts to leave the cemetery and make his way back to the mansion. Faith follows after him a short time later. It takes them an hour to arrive back in the mansion, Angelus quickly makes his way inside and heads to his room ignoring the gathered potentials in the den. Once he enters his room quickly takes of his leather duster and throws it on to one of the chairs in his room. He then makes his way over to the window overlooking the courtyard.

Moridin "I thought you would like to know that they were able to perform the spell to band the First entry into the mansion and its grounds."

Angelus "Good, it wouldn't have done us any good to have it appearing as the dead to haunt people."

Moridin "Very true Angelus, eventually the First would have begun to break them. Now your main concerns should be gathering more potentials, and keeping up moral."

Angelus "We need to also find out what it is that the First is planning."

Moridin "Leave that to me. I've took the liberty of claiming my own room here in the mansion."

Moridin walks to the door.

Moridin "You should get some rest Angelus, for tomorrow we will begin to make our plans to destroy the First."

Moridin then leaves the room, Angelus stares out the window for a little longer before he makes his way to his bed. Angelus lies down and closes his eyes, but doesn't let sleep claim him. Moments later he hears the door to his room and he smells a familiar scent.

Angelus "What is it Dru?"

Drusilla quickly walks over to Angelus' bed.

Drusilla "Oh daddy I just had a horrible dream, the great darkness came, and it began devour everything."

Angelus slides to the side of his bed and pats the spot next to him. Drusilla quickly gets into the bed and lies down next to Angelus and curls up into his side. Angelus then begins to comb his hand through Drusilla's hair.

Angelus "You have nothing to worry about Dru, we are going to destroy the First, and then it won't be able to devour anyone. Now let's get some sleep Dru."

Drusilla "All right daddy, I'm sure uncle and you will find a way to destroy the mean darkness."

Angelus looks at Drusilla and wonders on her use of the word uncle but decides not to worry about it until morning. He quickly allows himself to fall asleep with Drusilla still curled up into his side.
