"You should know, the only reason I'm risking my life for Faith, is because
you believe in her, nothing more. It's not like anything happened between
us that is making me do this," explained Spike as they left the crypt and
started through the graveyard.
"Fine," said Nina "but I do know you slept with her."
"I did not."
"You did, and you know it Spike. And really, I can't blame you, she's hot."
"Yeah."
"But I really don't care why you're helping me help her, as long as you do
it well. Alright?"
"Alright."
As they turned onto the road, they could see someone running toward them.
"Buffy?" Questioned Nina.
"Yes, come on, they're going to kill Faith."
"Why do you care all of a sudden?" Asked Spike.
"Because I always believed Faith had some good in her, and now that I've
seen it, I want to keep her around."
"Fine, but we have to have a plan," started Nina.
"I do," explained Buffy. "At this moment Faith is taking on the council,
and they don't trust her, they don't trust you, and they don't trust me.
That means we have nothing to lose when it comes to them. So we burst in,
kick their asses, and leave."
"What about your little groupies, they're not all fans of Faith,"
remembered Spike.
"No, they're definitely not. But I can keep them away. I'm prepared to hurt
them if I have to. We have to keep Faith alive. She deserves a second
chance at life."
"I agree," submitted Nina, "but do we have any weapons?"
"I've got mine," answered Spike.
"No," stopped Nina suddenly, and turning around to face him commanded very
seriously, "no one is to die. This is purely a get Faith out only plan. We
don't need the trouble of death. Plus, they are the council. And like it or
not, we cannot kill them because without them I wouldn't have gotten this
far. They are very useful in researching old demons and I have a feeling
we'll need them in the very near future. So, you even bite anyone in that
room, and I'll kill you myself."
"Alright, I get it. Fine."
"Good, now, what was I saying, oh, weapons?"
"I don't have any on me," answered Buffy.
"Me either," said Spike.
"Fine. In this time of peril, let us not lose and die, give us strength to
fight our demons, and weapons to stay alive."
In her hand appeared three swords, stakes, a crossbow, and an ax. She
passed the weapons out.
"Alright, everyone ready?" Questioned Nina.
"Yep," they answered.
"Let's kick some council ass," said Spike.
They burst through the school doors and headed toward the library.
"Be ready to jump in this battle right away," warned Nina.
The library doors wouldn't open, so Nina and Buffy both stepped back and
kicked. They flew open to reveal a scene none of them had been ready for.
Mr. Travers was lying on the floor bleeding, Xander had a cut across his
head, and Giles was holding his arm.
"What has gone on here was bad, pain and suffering many had, let my words
bring hope to them, let the harmful wounds mend," chanted Nina.
Mr. Travers bleeding stop, and the floor that had been soaked with his
blood was clean. Xander's head no longer head a slash in it, and Giles arm
no longer needed support from his other arm.
"Where's Faith?" Asked Buffy.
"She said she was going to go murder the one who brought her back,"
answered Mr. Travers.
"Who." started Buffy?
"Me," answered Nina, "She's coming after me."
