"How much longer until we're there?" Cordy asked nervously. She wasn't looking forward to telling everyone how badly she messed up.
"About half an hour," Wesley answered.
Connor sat in the backseat thinking about the last time he saw his father.
Flashback
Connor walked into the demon bar with Wesley and Cordelia.
The bar was full and the demons if they knew anything weren't giving any information about where to find Angelus.
There he saw her. A sexy brunette with long hair swaying to the music demanding the room's attention.
"Oh my God!" Cordy exclaimed
"I don't believe it!" Wesley said looking at the woman.
"Faith. When did she get out of jail?" Cordy asked puzzled.
"I don't know." Wesley replied.
"That's Faith?" Connor asked.
"Yes," Cordy and Wesley said in unison.
"I'm going to talk to her since I'm the only one she doesn't know," Connor said.
"Be careful," Cordy said, as Connor walked over to Faith.
"Hi," Connor said.
"Hello yourself," Faith said smiling.
"What's your name?" Connor asked nervously.
"Sorry kid, but you are a little young for me," Faith said walking away.
"Faith!" Wesley said, as they came face to face.
"Hi Wes, Cor; how ya been?" Faith asked.
"Actually, we are trying to find Angelus," Cordy exclaimed.
"Angel lost his soul?" Faith asked with disbelief.
"Yes, it's a long story. When did you get out?" Wesley asked.
"I escaped with some others a few months ago," Faith said.
"What have you been up to?" Wesley asked.
"Oh, I've just been wondering around L.A.staking vamps," Faith answered.
"This is Connor, Angel's son," Wesley said introducing them.
"How can you be Angel's son?" Faith asked in confusion.
"Very long story and we really don't have time to tell it right now. We need help. Someone has to stop Angelus and the Beast," Cordy said.
"Yeah, well I need to go now. I will be sure to let you know if I see Angelus," Faith said and ran out of the bar.
"She's hiding something," Cordy exclaimed, not noticing Connor fleeing.
Faith ran into the night down the street wanting to get as far away as possible. Connor ran closely behind. Faith began slowing down and went into the shadows and got out her cell phone. Connor listened intently.
"Lilah? It's Faith. They found me."
"No, they have no idea. I'm sure. Ok, I'll be there soon, bye," Faith said, hanging up.
"Well, look who I found!" Angelus said, walking toward Faith.
"So you're working for Wolfram and Hart? Guess prison didn't help redeem you after all," Angelus said sarcastically.
"Yeah, well you know what they say; can't teach an old dog new tricks," Faith answered with sarcasm.
Angelus just laughed.
"Do you know of the Beast?" Angelus asked.
"Heard some things, yes," Faith said.
"They're scared aren't they? That's why they wanted a slayer on their side. They don't know anymore about what's happening than Angel's pals," Angelus said matter-of-factly.
Faith began to walk away.
"Where do ya think you're going?" Angelus asked, standing in her way.
Faith didn't answer, instead kicked him in the face.
"That wasn't very nice," Angelus growled, hitting her back.
"I don't do nice," Faith said, kicking him in the stomach.
"How could I forget what a bad girl you are?" Angelus said seductively.
He flipped forward and landed swiftly on his feet. He caught Faith off guard and threw her against the wall. Connor jumped in, but Angelus easily blocked him and hit in the face. Faith slowly got up blood dripping from her head.
"Kid what are ya doing?" she asked.
"Helping," Connor said, hitting Angelus back. Connor and Angelus began trading blows, but soon Angelus took the upper hand, knocking him out with a blow to the head.
"Now where were we?" Angelus asked smiling. Connor woke to find Angelus and Faith gone. He ran back to tell Cordy and Wesley what happened.
End Flashback.
Spike walked quickly through the streets of Sunnydale, not knowing where he was headed. She will never see me as anything but her sodden slave. Spike thought with disgust.
He was so lost in his thoughts he didn't notice Wood following closely behind him.
Buffy ran as fast as possible trying to catch up with Spike. Why does he doubt me so much? Why? Because you haven't done anything but treat him like dirt, she thought grimly.
Suddenly Spike was being jumped from behind. Wood kicked him in the back. Spike struggled to get up and saw Wood with a stake in his hand.
"Bloody hell! What is your problem?" Spike asked in confusion.
"My problem is you, vampire. I don't know what Buffy sees in you. How she could be with you knowing everything you have done, all the people you have killed?" Wood answered holding the stake.
"I don't know either, but I have a soul now. Look mate, I know you liked Buffy and your ego is bruised, since she chose me over you.." Spike was interrupted.
"That isn't what this is about," Wood said coldly.
"Then why?" Spike asked backing away from Wood. He knew that Buffy wouldn't like it if he hurt the principal, but if it was self-defense; that was different. Why do I still care what she thinks? I really am turning into the poof!
"You killed my mother," Wood said, advancing, "you know her Spike, the slayer you killed on the subway; that was her coat," Wood said and lunged at Spike. Spike punched him in the face. Wood hit him back and they started fighting. Wood was about to stake him when Buffy came running pummeling Wood.
"Get the hell away from Spike!" she screamed.
"Whore!" Wood yelled. Buffy punched him using her full strength. He was already bleeding from being beaten by Spike. Wood landed with a thump face down.
Buffy backed away horrified. Spike staggered towards her. She looked up at him with fear in her eyes. He walked over and felt for Wood's pulse. There was none.
A/N Well the suspense is building. Let me know what you think of the new twist.
Thanks
