"Where have you been?" Asked Jimmy, her manager, as Nina entered the
studio. "First of all," she explained, "I told you today I would be
visiting my friends. And secondly, you told me the only day I had to come
in was tomorrow at nine." "Right," said Jimmy, looking confused. "So, how
are your friends?" "Fine," answered Nina. "The Scooby gang's as great as
ever, but this new girl Faith needed a reality check." "The Scooby gang?"
Questioned Jimmy. "Buffy, Giles, Willow, Tara, Anya, Xander, and Spike.
sort-of. And Faith is like a stray missile, not part of the gang." Answered
Nina. "Oh," said Jimmy, "So why are you here?" He asked, "If you don't have
to come in until tomorrow." "Oh," remembered Nina, "while I was with my
friends I thought of an idea for a song." "Alright," he exclaimed, "maybe
another hit single?" "Maybe," she said. "All I know is the title though."
"Really, what's that?" He asked. "Fighter."
*** Meanwhile, Spike had only followed Nina out, but was now hiding behind a gravestone, waiting for Faith. He knew with all the killing she had done in the past, she wouldn't hesitate to try a massacre before she died. And sure enough, Faith emerged from the crypt within a matter of seconds from when he left, and headed in the direction of the Sunneydale library. Spike got
up and followed her form a distance. He knew the first thing the potion would weaken would be her knack for sensing vampires, and then, it would weaken her strength. He figured it she didn't want to feel any pain; she would probably want Buffy to kill her before the potion did. Faith entered the school by kicking the door open; her strength hadn't lessened yet. But considering Spike was only 5 ft. away, she HAD already lost her ability to
sense vamps. Spike waited until she had turned the corner to follow her down to the library. "Didn't take you long to come," said Buffy, turning as Faith entered. "I knew what I had to do," said Faith. "And what's that?" Questioned Buffy. "Kill you," said Faith. "Faith, I don't know if Nina told you or not, but your strength will probably leave you within the first half an hour." Warned Buffy. "Well, then I'll just have to rely on my brain to get me through." Answered Faith. "I hate to break it to ya," said Xander from where he was seated at the library table, "But I think that part of you went along time ago." "You want a piece of me too?" Snapped Faith. "I thought I already got one." Said Xander. "Well, then, you want some more?" Asked Faith. "No," said Nina, suddenly entering the room, and stopping to
look at Spike, he shook his head, "I'll fight you." "I thought you were recording." Said Faith. "No we're recoding tomorrow, I just wrote down the
lyrics." Explained Nina. "Well, I don't know how good you are in your world," said Faith now circling Nina, "But now you're entering my world of
fighting and slaying. And if I'm gonna die, you're going with me."
"Alright," said Nina, "let's go."
