Chapter Seven
Planning
Faith twirled the sais in her hands.
"So, what's your story?"
Gunn glanced up at her while pulling bolts out of the cabinet.
"Why?"
"Just curious. Cable's out due to vampires ruining the lines."
Faith tossed a sai and hit the bull's eyes set up on the other side of the room. Gunn gave her a half-smile.
"I don't know."
"Why do you battle evil everyday, Gunn? Angel's making up for all his bad, Cordelia has her visions, Wesley and I are called to it. Why do you?"
"I grew up on the streets. Vampires killed my sister. She was the only family I had."
"Revenge. Totally noble. You know, you and I aren't that different."
"What?" Gunn watched her skeptically before turning back to the cabinet.
"No family, fight evil." She stepped closely to Gunn and ran her hand down his arm. Gunn grabbed it and Faith stepped on her tip toes.
"And we both hate Wes."
Gunn nodded, knowing what she was saying.
"Fred's with me, but she don't want to be."
Faith moved away and took a cross bow out.
"She likes Wes, huh?"
"They're a lot a like, a guess. Two of a kind. I think he understands her better than I do."
Faith nodded as she put a group of stakes in a bag.
"I love Fred so much. But she's not mine anymore. I've got to let her go to English. It's how its supposed to be."
Faith took Gunn's hand in her hands and kissed him quickly.
"Like I said. We're a lot a like. But you're better than I'll ever be."
Gunn smiled at her, a little shocked.
Wesley, Connor, Cordelia, Lorne, Faith, and Gunn scanned the street of warehouses quietly. They saw three vampires enter a specific one. Faith glanced at the gang before they crept up to the warehouse. Connor motioned for them to follow. They snuck behind the warehouse and climbed to the roof. They peered through the window. Wesley saw Fred first. She was chained to the wall, half-unconcious. Drusilla was in the corner, talking incessently to her doll. Angelus was pacing from boredom, waiting for their arrival. He stalked to Fred, growling. Faith waved her arm after the distribution of weapons and they jumped through the window. Well, Faith and Connor did, anyways. Wes, Gunn, Cordelia and Lorne climbed down over the broken glass. Angelus turned, a huge grin on his face. "Party time!"
