Chapter 11

Upon returning to the apartment he had been sharing with his ma and grandparents, Henry found his mom and aunt asleep on the bed. Henry turned to his ma and dad as the two shut the door.

It had been ten minutes since Faith drifted off to sleep and the Blue Fairy left, as Snow spoke softly to David about what she had seen Faith do. David could understand the practicality of it but on the moral standpoint he didn't know where he stood.

The two looked up as the door opened to watch as Henry moved over to the bed and climbed in. Neal and Emma stood with David and Snow watching as the little boy curled himself pressed up against his mother's back. Faith woke with a start and tensed up as the small form of Henry's torso pressed against the back of her arms.

She looked over Regina's head to see her nephew's face burrowed into the middle of Regina's upper back. Faith lightly raised her shoulder twice as she spoke softly, "Regina, tienes que despertar. Henry está aquí. Yo estoy aquí. Hemos sobrevivido como siempre lo hacemos. Vamos, hermana despierta."

Henry pulled away quickly when he heard his aunt speaking Spanish which was followed by his mom groaning as she came back to consciousness. He moved off the bed to give his mom room to move.

Regina groaned as she heard Faith speaking to her in their father's native tongue which translated to this world as Spanish. She replied, "Estoy despierta, un poco lastimada, pero viva y despierta."

Henry's voice came softly from behind her with, "Mom?"

Regina turned to him and smiled, "Henry."

The boy was very careful as he climbed back onto the bed and threw his arms around her. Henry closed his eyes as he soaked up all the affection he could get from his now awake mother and Aunt.

The other adults in the apartment moved towards the bed, as Emma spoke, "We're glad you both are alright."

As Faith sits both herself and Regina up, she motioned Henry to place pillows behind Regina. Faith then looked at everyone in the apartment, "You all look like you want to ask something."

Henry vibrated with excitement because he was about to hopefully get some truth, as he asked, "What's a Slayer?"

Faith's eyebrows rose as she asked, "How'd you hear that word? I mean you spoke it like it's a title."

Henry crossed his arms and glared, "You're not answering my question."

"Well, I first want to know how you heard it then I will answer truthfully."

Henry bit out, "Like you did about that prophecy."

Faith's eyes narrowed as she took in the boy, "How do you know about that?"

"You lied!"

"I didn't, I just didn't have a lot of time with you to decide if I wanted to tell you."

Henry asked, "Why wouldn't you tell us," gesturing to himself, his ma and grandparents, "We're the good guys."

Faith gave a harsh bark of laughter, "Yeah, you lot are the 'White Hats'. I know but honestly Pup. I don't have the best track record when dealing with the supposed 'White Hats'. In my experience they are oblivious to what they think doesn't affect them until it comes back to bit them in the ass."

The others could all hear the slight bitterness in Faith's tone as she spoke. Faith ignored the rest as she started looking for her phone.

Neal asked, "Um… what are you looking for?"

Faith turned to the man and studied him a bit before replying in a deadpanned voice, "my phone."

Henry pulls out Faith's cell from his pocket asking in a begrudged tone, "Why?" Henry noticed that his Aunt's eyes seemed to have shuttered closed that he couldn't see what she was possibly thinking or feeling.

Faith took the phone and hit the speed dial as she replied, "You wanted an explanation of what a Slayer is. Well at the base form it's a person that slays monsters. But if you want the history or lore of the Slayer then you need to hear it from Giles. It always sounds better with a British accent."

As the other end was picked up, Faith placed the phone on speaker. There was a canopy of voices that cried out, "FAITH!"

Faith blinked, "Whoa! ¡Cálmense! Hey Scooby gang, are all of you there including Jeeves?"

Willow's voice came over the phone, "Faith, are you alright? Yes, we are and Giles is here too. Also since when can you speak Spanish?"

Faith scoffed, "I'm five by five. And my papá taught me." Shaking her head, Faith continued before any on the other side of the line could ask more, "Anyway G-man do you think you can do the Speech."

Giles' confused voice came through, "Why would I need to?"

Faith grinned, "Because Henry lied to you, I hadn't gotten around to telling him the truth yet."

Faith watched as the others paid close attention. She then heard the Scoobs sharing some soft talk before Giles cleared his throat and started, "The World is older than you know…"

Just as Giles rounded up his speech there was a knock at the door which was then followed by a violent tremor. Neal was closes to the door so once he was on stable footing he opened it to find his father and what looked like Hook glaring daggers at one another.

Regina asked, "What was that?"

Gold replied, "It would appear dearie that the trigger was activated."


E/N: Okay so I'm re-posted this chapter after the lovely MayhemPrincess offered to and then translated the parts I wanted into Spanish for me.
