I was shocked to see Black Widow when Xander and I were trying to avoid my damn sire. I thought the falcon was dead, but I was wrong.
Shortly after Angelus got his soul and pulled his disappearing act, Dru and I traveled aimlessly; she insisted on finding "daddy." I just went along, feeling my own loss. We stumbled into Caleif's territory by accident; not realizing where we were until I fed on a girl he deemed his and he ordered his oldest childe to capture us. Black Widow was intent on torturing us until the youngest, recently turned female stopped her. Bethany saved us and got us out of there. I had heard rumors that Black Widow was killed but since she's standing right in front of me, they're obviously false.
"Hello, William." came a familiar voice and she steps out of shadows. I growl, not trusting her around my childe.
"Who are you?" Xander asks.
"My name is Black Widow. I'm a rouge falcon like you."
"Not a rouge falcon. I just refuse to stake my sire." He replies.
"The same way I started. I refused to stake my sire, and he changed me from a pathetic weakling to a strong falcon by not following their rules."
I snort at that.
"Comments, William?"
"You're the one that has the falcons scared?" I ask.
"Yes. I have been fighting the weaklings for years. I've killed many of their fighters so the minute they hear a person was changed into a falcon they hunt them down and make them stake their sires and go into training. They are scared shitless that the falcons who won't allow them to train him or her will turn out like me."
"That's why they are so persistent." Xander says.
"You've got a smart one there."
"He's mine." I claim him, not trusting her.
She turns to Xander. "Join me. We can bring those stupid falcons down and have others like us."
"No."
"Why?" she sounds angry.
"I'm tired of the fight between good guys vs. bad guys. I just want to stay out of this crap," he explains.
She leaves, laughing. I know that this is not over. I lead the way back to my crypt, hoping that Peaches won't be there. I am in no mood to deal with him right now.
