I want to give a big thanks to every person who's given me feedback on this story it's been great and given me something to realy keep me going with it. I'm keeping chapters short, it helps me to keep the story moving and since i'm writing short chapters i've also stopped naming each chapter.
Chapter 7 -
Faith looked over Josh's shoulder at the charts he was pondering over "So what's
wrong with her?" Faith asked after she could make no heads nor tails of Josh's charts.
"nothing it seems, she appears to be in perfect physical health"
"But she can barely move without intense physical pain"
"maybe we should investigate the demon that attacked her"
Faith nodded
"Faith!" a voice yelled.
Faith smiled and started to leave "Her majesty calls" Faith said to Josh as she left the
room.
"Faith I'm bored"
Faith laughed and sat down next to her "You yelled for me, dragged me away from
what I was doing to tell me your bored?" Faith asked with mock anger
"And to give you this" Buffy said as she leaned forward and kissed Faith
"Well them I'm not complaining" Faith said with a grin
"So about me been bored.."
Faith lifted Buffy up into her arms "how about a change of scenery?" She asked
"Sure"
"now I have places to go soon, so I'll dump you in my room, plenty to do in there"
Faith said as she started to leave the room. Buffy just nodded and nestled her head
against Faith's shoulder and enjoyed the ride.
Buffy looked around the room as Faith placed her on the bed, the only sign that Faith
lived in the room was the amount of dirty clothes strewn across the floor and the
leather in the half open closet. Faith walked over to a cupboard opposite the bed and
opened it up to reveal a Tv, a stereo and a playstaion 2. "Nice gear" Buffy said
"Came with the room" Faith replied as she picked up a couple of remotes and placed
them on the bedside table "There's not much else to do in this house unless you're into
reading research stuff for fun" Buffy smiled and turned on the tv
"This'll be fine, so did Josh work out what was wrong with me"
Faith looked at her feat not sure what to say "Um, nah, but I promise I will" Fait
leaned down and softly brushed her lips against Buffys before grabbing a coat and
leaving.
Faith raised her hand to knock on the door, she hesitated for a moment then rapped her
knuckles against the door. Slowly the door opened and Giles looked at her.
"Faith" He said taken aback.
"Um, hey Giles"
"Where's Buffy?" Giles asked as he took of his glasses and proceeded to clean them
"Josh hasn't told you?"
"I spoke to him early today he said she was in good condition"
"Yea well it would seem so, only she can't move without intense physical pain"
Giles brow creased and he put his glasses back on "Yes, that's odd, it sounds like
something.." He trailed off as he retreated into his apartment. Faith followed cautiously
checking for the presence of any scoobies. "Yes" Giles said as he read a page of a book
he'd just picked up
"What?" Faith asked
"It's ah a demon, who injects a, well something into the brain to cause it to think the
body is, um injured. It's used to vampires or other demons generally to weaken pray"
Faith nodded "Do you think I could see Buffy, run the picture by her"
"Sure, she's more than up for visitors, it's kinda just moving, especially walking"
Giles nodded and was already heading out the door.
