(Chapter-27)

A couple of hours later Faith, Buffy and everybody else arrived at the school. The moment the vans stopped Faith jumped out and kissed the ground, "HOME, WERE FINALY HOME!"

Buffy walked up to her, "We know, you don't need to tell the whole State."

Faith got up and went to get her stuff when one of Shego's Command Room girls came running up, "Mrs. Lehane, we have news on Lex Luther." She reached out to hand Faith a paper.

Faith took it and read what it said, "Well, well, well. Just as we thought he would do, he's at the LutherCorp building right now beefing up the Security. According to this, he's adding a Mine Field that extends at lest two hundred yards between the new fences he put up and had electrified. But these aren't your ordinary Mines, these can be detonated by remote."

Buffy looked at the paper, "So what are we gonna do?"

Faith took a deep breath, "First were gonna get Jennifer and Lara settled in, then were going home and see the kids and relax for a while."

Buffy snuggled into Faith arm, "I like the way you think."

Once they walked through the door little Dawn came running up in her walker with big Dawn and Janice right behind her. Little Dawn looked up and saw her two mommies and smiled with a smile that's only reserved for children.

Faith dropped her bags and picked little Dawn up and just held her in a hug.

A few seconds later little Dawn looked over and seen her mommy Buffy and nearly leapt into her arms. Buffy held her in a hug also missing the touch of her youngest daughter.

Faith looked at the other two and gave them a hug also, "Hey girls, we sure did miss ya."

Big Dawn smiled, "We missed you two mom, but not as much as little Dawnie."

Faith giggled, "I bet she doesn't let go of your mother while we're here."

Buffy walked up, "Hey you two, I missed you both."

Big Dawn laughed, "We know, we missed you to. But again, not as much as little Dawnie. Come on, we have coffee and ice-tea made."

That evening they sat and talked about what happened in L.A. a few hours later everybody was now in bed.

Buffy snuggled up to Faith who was watching tv, "You know it feels good to be home and sleeping in our own bed."

Faith kissed Buffy, "I know how you feel sweetie."

The next day everybody meet in the main dining hall to welcome Jennifer and Lara to Sunnydale and to the school. After a few hours of having fun in the dining hall they all then went to the meeting room to start working on recapturing Lex.

Faith looked around and smiled, "Shego something's missing."

Shego felt herself and looked around, "I don't see anything missing."

Faith laughed, "I do, push that small button next to your right hand."

Shego looked at a small button next to her hand and pushed it. All of a sudden the table section infront of her lowered and then a computer raised up to replace it. "Oh, now this is awesome."

Buffy leaned forward, "That's a special item me and Faith had put in. Now you don't need to leave a meeting to search someone or something up. This computer is linked directly to the Command Room."

Shego touched the I.D. pad and the computer activated, "This is so awesome."

Faith spoke up, "Ok, now lets get get busy. As we know Lex is at LutherCorp, and has taken some extra steps to keep us out. He's electrified the fences and in between the fences two hundred of the two hundred and fifty yards has been Mined. But these Mines aren't ordinary mines, these Mines can be detonated by remote."

Dog raised his hand, "How do you expect to get past something like that mine field?"

Faith nodded. "We have a vehicle coming that'll take care of the Mines. Now, the first thing we need to do is do some touch up training. I want to make sure everyone is up to speed. But for now I want to get some recon going. I don't want any surprises spring upon us. So, any questions?"

Shego raised her hand, "Who do you want for the recon mission?"

Faith nodded, "I want Karen to head up the recon mission, and let's let her chose her team."

Shego nodded.

Faith pushed a button on the podium, "These are the latest satellite photos of the LutherCorp compound. As you can see Lex has also added extra Security Guards. But I want you to pay close attention these red dots, these red dots are the Mines. Even though we'll be taking out some of them with a vehicle that runs over them and detonates them. There will be those that won't get destroyed, those are the ones we need to be careful of. So that's why I want you all to know the mines locations. Any other questions?" Faith looked around the room. "Ok people lets get take the rest of the day and study the mine locations. And come tomorrow we're gonna start the brush-up training. So go on get out of here and enjoy the day."

Shego pushed the button again and the computer disappeared and the missing part of the table was back. She then got up and joined the others that was leaving the room.

Buffy walked up to Faith, "Do you think we'll be able to put him away this time?"

Faith wrapped her arms around Buffy, "I hope so sweetie, I hope so."

Mean while at LutherCorp, Lex was in a basement area doing some target practice. He wanted to make sure he was ready when Faith, Buffy and their people came after him. Lex decided to go out fighting.

KpKpKpKpKpKpKpKp

For the past week everybody had been brushing up on their training so they'll be ready when they went after Lex. How ever when a few of the girls found out what they were going up against they backed out. Faith wasn't one bit mad cause she knew that some of them weren't ready for some thing like this. And besides she also knew two of them were recently married. So she replaced them with some girls who had been wanting to help for some time.

Back at LutherCorp Lex walked into the Security Room, "Has anyone heard anything on those at the school?"

The head Security Guard turned in his seat, "Sorry sir nothing, either they're not there or they know how to keep their activities a secret."

Lex sighed, "Just keep a watch on them."

Back at the school Faith had all the teams gather in the main gym, "Ok listen up I've posted your team assignments on the board, find your team and get with them." Faith looked around seeing nobody was moving., "MOVE NOW!"

Everybody jumped and went to the message board to find what team they'll be on. After several minutes everyone was with their team.

A minute later Faith took the mic again, "Now that we're with our teams. I want you all to take the rest of the day and relax. Cause come early tomorrow morning we're moving out. So let's get out of here and have a bit of fun."

A few minutes later everyone was gone except Faith, Buffy, Shego, Heather and Jennifer.

Shego walked up to Faith and the others, "I know you would like us to join ya but I promised Molly I would be home to fix dinner. And that's a promise Heather is gonna make me keep."

Heather wrapped her arms around Shego's waist from behind, "Yep I'm making sure of that, so if you'll excuse us we have a promise to keep."

Everyone laughed as Heather pushed Shego towards the door.

Jennifer looked at Faith and Shego, "Well guys Me and Lara are gonna head out for a nice romantic dinner and then have a quit evening in our room. So we'll see ya in the morning."

Faith and Buffy watched the two new addition to the school's staff leave. Faith took Buffy in her arms, "So, what do you think of us going home and spending the rest of the day with our children?"

Buffy turned in Faith's armes and smiled, "You read my mind." The two shared a kiss and headed home.

The next morning everyone was up and dressed before five a.m.. Faith was over seeing the loading of the equipment they were gonna take, "No I said I want four cases of LAWs (Light Anti-Tank Weapon) not two." She looked over the rest and found everything was good.

About thirty minutes everything was ready.

Faith turned and looked at her teams, "Ok people lets go get the asshole."

Minutes later they were all heading towards LutherCorp.

KpKpKpKpKpKpKpKp

At LutherCorp Lex was sleeping on a sofa when his head of Security came running in, "Sir, the people at the school are on their way."

Lex sat up, "Activate all the Mines and have everyone armed and ready."

The Security Officer handed Lex a paper, "I think you should see this."

Lex looked at the paper.

The Security Officer spoke up, "They're bringing in a vehicle that can take out the Minefields."

Lex handed it back, "Thank you." Lex went to the restroom and washed his face, when he was done he looked in the mirror, "So it begins here and ends here." Lex reached into his jacket and pulled his gun out and checked to see if it was fully loaded. Seeing it was he put it back and headed to what was gonna be a big fight.
