Under a Dark Star

Disclaimer- I do not own any of these characters from either Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Star Gate SG 1. They of course belong to their creators and their corporations. They just wanted to come out for a while so I agreed. No copyright infringement is intended and I deeply respect their creators and hope I brought them to life in a way they enjoy. Oh yes this work is definitely AU in nature for both series.

A/N- What if Faith was wrong about her family? What if she really was wanted and circumstances were not as she thought? What would her real family do to protect her and help her? What happens when fate decides to give the dark slayer a protector of her own who knows about the council and has a place to keep her safe away from those who harm her?

Spoilers- Season 1 Star Gate SG1 and the movie along with Any and all seasons with Faith in it for Buffy the Vampire slayer. Mostly after the series ended.

A/N : Spell and Grammar checked but not betaed. Read at your own risk

Part 14 Proposition PG

Samantha Finn cursed as she came into her apartment. It had been an other long and deadly hunt. She tossed her gear down on the table and fell into a chair exhausted. She was so tired of the fight. She just wanted to give it all up a live a normal life. However normal was not possible. She rose and went to the bathroom and showered quickly. If she hurried, she would be in time to see Riley.

Twenty minutes latter she pulled up the Veterans hospital and went in.

"Commander Finn it is good to see you." A middle aged nurse said with a smile. "I thought you were not back until next week?"

"We got done early. How is he?"

Her smiled faded. "He is still the same. Alive in and out. He was conscious for a little while today. We managed to get some PT in but then he went out after lunch again. I am worried he is giving up."

Sam felt a tear form as she went to her husbands side. "Thanks for looking out for him Mabel. I know he can be a stubborn man." She took his hand in her own and sat down burying her head against the bed.

The nurse came over and laid a blanket over the Naval Commanders shoulders. "He is a hero Commander. He saved my Davies's life of course I keep an eye out for him."

Sam smiled wanly at her and prepared to spend the night at Riley's bedside. It was the only thing she could do for him. Maybe if she was lucky he would wake up for a little while and they could talk. She loved this stubborn man with all her heart and soul and would do anything to be with him. She still could not believe he was dying, dying from an experiment his own government performed on him without his knowledge or consent. She was still enraged at this. Damn Maggie Walsh and Damn Buffy Summers and Faith Lehanne they had did this to her husband.

A shadow watched as the nurse left. He smiled darkly. Now this was an opportunity to solve several problems. Robert Kinsey walked into the room when the Nurse left.

A sound alerted Sam and she jumped up in a defensive position.

"Not bad my dear." Robert Kinsey said. He smiled coldly. "I am Senator Robert Kinsey and I have a proposition for you." He looked at Riley who was laying there out cold. "If you agree to help me I will allow you access to technology that can heal your husband and return him to full health."

Sam froze and her eyes narrowed. "No, I do not think so."

The senator smiled like a shark. "You will agree or perhaps I will simply have the machines turned off. No point in wasting funds on a man who does not exist."

Sam froze. No her mind shouted. Not after all, we been trough Riley served faithfully. Nevertheless, she knew he could do it. They were after all Black Operations and neither of them technically existed anymore. Major Riley Finn was listed as KIA in South America in 2005 as was she Commander Samantha Finn. "I will not sell my soul."

Robert Kinsey laughed aloud at this. "I don't want such a useless thing. NO, I simply need you to hunt, perhaps capture and or kill several monsters. They are a threat to the United States."

"What kind of demons?"

"Now that is uncertain. Trust me my dear the ones I send you for well you will enjoy taking them down."

Sam's eyes narrowed but she knew he was serious about removing Riley from the medical care he needed to live she also knew she had to go along because a man like Kinsey could easily make her disappear forever.

"What or who is the target?"

"No one important. Simply a few young women who have almost destroyed the world several times. They are careless and do not follow orders. I for one do not wish my fate controlled by children."

"A slayer? You want me to go after Buffy and Faith?"

"Yes, along with those that allies themselves there. They are a danger to us all. It is because of them that Riley is there. They let that demon go and injured the Major."

Sam nodded. It was true. Buffy and Faith had not chased down all the demons from LA. It was one of those that escaped to Mexico that had gotten Riley when they were hunting there. "I suppose that is true. I have no love for those slayers. I am in."

Kinsey smiled and offered his hand. Sam felt like she was shaking hands with the devil but at least she was not selling her soul and Riley be saved.

Kinsey smiled at her and thought she will make a lovely Queen. His Gould was clearly pleased with her falling in line. His host also was pleased. For once Human and guould were in complete agreement. They would use this hunter to end the slayer line and with a little luck shut down the SGC as well. It was going to be a good day indeed.
