Author's notes: Saint's Row 4 is feeling like a DLC for Saints Row 3. How many more days until GTA5? Really? Aww man…

Previously on Peyton the Vampire Slayer – Brooke beat the crap out of Peyton. Willow broke the 4th wall and Haley is still naked. Good times.
And now…
Peyton the Vampire Slayer - Chapter 25
Mouth was beginning to wonder what the hell was going on. Haley had been asleep or in a coma or a trance again for like ten minutes. Peyton had went out looking for Brooke and he still hadn't heard anything from her either. He had to do something but he couldn't just leave Haley unprotected and he had no idea where to even start looking for Peyton.
Maybe I need to get some super powers...Mouth thought.
He sat back down on the bed with Haley. She had this strange grin on her face. Whatever she was doing in that other realm, she must be having a good time.
Haley pulled back from Willow. Her mind felt like it had been blown apart and put back together in a whole new way. It was like she was seeing everything for the first time again. Including the redhead that was standing in front of her.
"Wow..." Haley said.
"Whew...I didn't think it was going to be so..." Willow said.
"Me either. I think I should say thank you but that would be weird right?" Haley asked.
"Naah. It would be okay. After all, a part of me is with you now." Willow smiled.
"And part of me is with you." Haley smiled back.
"You should get going. I'll send some slayer powered help your way as soon as I can." Willow started walking away from her.
"When can I...um...see you again?" Haley asked.
"I don't know. I am still trying to figure out what to say to my girlfriend about this." Willow smirked.
"Girlfriend?" Haley said.
"Yeah. I probably should have said something." Willow said.
"Well I am married. Separated at the moment. But still…" Haley said.
"Your boat sounds worse than mine." Willow said.
"I'll make it. So will you." Haley said.
"Thanks Haley. I will see you again." Willow said.
"Looking forward to it." Haley smiled and faded out of the realm.
"Ow. What the...Crap..." Peyton sat up slowly. She was still sore as hell. It felt like her slayer powers had been pushed to the limit and she still wasn't feeling any better. In fact, she felt exhausted. But somehow she was wide awake once again.
"Hey."
Peyton propped herself up against the headboard. There was Brooke still there. She was standing the corner.
"Hey. You're still here." Peyton said.
"I am." Brooke said.
"Why is that?" Peyton asked.
"Because I wasn't kidding before. I do love you." Brooke said softly.
"So that's why you kicked my ass?" Peyton snarked.
"I deserve that. Being like this, Peyt, it is indescribable. Every feeling I had is like turned up to ten. I go from being insane with rage to feeling incredibly guilty all in the span of a few seconds." Brooke said.
Peyton bit her bottom lip to keep herself from saying something smart assed. Brooke was clearly trying to make a point. And she wasn't really up for another round of fighting with her friend.
"So what changed?" Peyton asked.
"The only thing that keeps me from flying off the handle is you. When I focus on how I feel about you, I feel like myself again." Brooke answered. The brunette took a few steps out of the corner.
"I didn't mean to hurt you. I just..." Brooke looked down at the ground. Nothing she could say would make up for what she did.
"Brooke." Peyton didn't know what else to say to her.
"I just want to know if you can forgive me. I will do whatever you want me to do. Just please say you can find a way to forgive me..." Brooke pleaded.
The slayer looked into her best friend's eyes. There was only one thing that she wanted.
"Come back my house and let Haley fi...help you. That's all I want. I just want you to get your soul back. If you let me do that, then I can forgive you." Peyton said.
"If that's what it takes..." Brooke whispered.
"It is. If you love me as much as you say you do, then you can do this for me." Peyton said.
"I can." Brooke said.
"Thank you. Now I do have one more question for you." Peyton said.
"Okay." Brooke said.
"Where is Lucas?" Peyton asked.
"Oh...well I may have turned him into a vampire. And he may have gotten away while we were fighting. Or when we were...either way he's gone." Brooke said.
"You did what?" Peyton shouted.
"Well it was before you got here. And I was hungry…" Brooke said.
"Fuck me." Peyton sighed. This was seriously getting silly. Just when she was starting to get a handle on things. Not only did she have to deal Brooke and vampire mood swings, she now had to deal with the broodiest person she knew being a vampire.
"Now I have to find him. Damn it." Peyton got up off of the bed.
"I am sure he'll be alright." Brooke said.
"Have you lost it? You can seriously be saying that right now." Peyton said.
"Why?" Brooke asked.
"Lucas is out there and he is probably hungry. We find him and then we will deal with your problem." Peyton said.
"Are you mad at me?" Brooke asked.
"Yes! I am very very mad at you, Brooke! Do you really think we need a vampire version of Lucas is a good thing? I just don't…never mind..." Peyton sighed.
"I didn't mean to do it." Brooke said.
"I just wish I had never got these goddamn powers. All they have done is fuck up my life." Peyton headed towards the door.
"That's not true." Brooke said.
"What makes you say that? In the span of two days, Haley has become a witch, I have had my ass kicked more times than I can count and the two people I am the closest to have become vampires. So you tell me, what is so great about these powers?" Peyton asked.
"If I hadn't become a vampire, I wouldn't have realized how much I love you." Brooke said.
"How can you say that? You died because of me!" Peyton shouted.
"Are you serious? We aren't doing this again, Sawyer. It happened. You need to stop flip flopping back and forth. You are a slayer. You have these gifts because somebody thought you could do some good." Brooke said.
Peyton was about to respond but Brooke just held up her hand.
"No. I don't want to hear it. All we can do is deal. So can we please just deal with this?" Brooke asked.
"Fine…uh…I don't…shit…" Peyton tried to step out of the house. A wave of dizziness overcame her and she fell backwards. Brooke rushed over using her speed to catch her before she hit the floor.
"Peyton! Peyton what is it?" Brooke asked.
"Tired…I am just really tired…" Peyton whispered.
Then she passed out.
