A random bar in Pittsburgh.
"Faith, we've been here 45 minutes and all I've seen you do is drink and dance." Xander complained over the loud noise of the dance club. The dark- haired Slayer motioned for the bar tender to pour her two more hen turned her attention to her male companion.
"You've been assigned to help me track down hot super chicks, an assignment that leads us to places with much flowing alcohol and scantily clad babes and yet. you complain, Harris." Faith chuckled sliding one of her shots to him. "What exactly is your problem?"
"My problem is that I'd rather be." Xander's voice trailed off as Faith leaned in close to him reaching into his front pocket. She removed an object, about the size and shape of a ring box.
"Fine, fine.all work and no play make Faith.something, something." Faith grumbled, opening the tiny contraption. She closes her eyes and starts to open the box; a sparkling light shoots out and settles
in Faith's palm. She brings it to her lips and blows softly. Her eyes open and she watches as the light dances up to the rafters, zooming all about.
"Remind me how that works again." Xander questions, keeping his eyes fixed on the moving light.
"Willow's latest toy, locator spell in a box. If there's a Slayer in the room, besides me, it'll land on her. Make her glow a nifty color only I can see." Faith's eyes follow the light as it lands on a
petite redhead. "That's our target," Faith nods towards the girl.
"Ok, let's go get all recruity." Xander claps his hands together and pulls Faith off her bar stool "You'll play good cop, I'll be bad cop."
Faith chuckled as they make their way towards the girl, "Xander, I'm always the bad cop."
3 hours, 12 drinks, and 2 dusted Vampires later..
"So I'm a Slayer huh?" the redhead giggles and leans against Xander.
Faith shakes her head, wiping her hands on her jeans. "Maybe it's that I'm an only child."
Xander shakes his head "Don't go wishing for a little sister, you never know when some wacky old monks might be listening."
"You never, ever make sense to me, Harris." Faith kicks his foot, urging him to drag the drunken new recruit. "Why don't they ever just believe me. Hi, my name is Faith. You've been chosen by Fate to
save the world from evil. I believed my Watcher when she told me. It's not that difficult of a concept to grasp. But no, I've either got to get them drunk or endanger their lives by sitting them on a fresh
grave. No trust in society these days. No trust at all."
"This from the woman who's tried to kill me on at least three occasions?" Xander smirked, half-dragging the girl "Hey super strength, wanna lend a hand?"
Faith smiled at her partner, and draped the girl's arm over her shoulders, helping Xander lift her into the van. "I only tried to kill you cuz you wouldn't sleep with me again."
"Oh, now that I believe." Xander chuckled as they lay the girl on the cot "Will we be back in Cleveland before she wakes up?"
"I hope so, I hate it when they barf in the back of the van." Faith closes the doors and tosses the keys to Xander "It takes forever to get the smell out."
The two get into the van and it disappears into the night.
