Chapter 2 - Meet The Gang
Spike put out his ciggerette on the bench and leaned foreowrd, eyeing the girl Faith and Gunn had brought in. "So, i didn't know we were taking in strays" he said, a little under his breath.
"I'd shut it, pretty boy" Becky growled at him, narrowing her eyes. Faith whistled as she sat down on the couch and looked up at them.
Spike leaned back and looked at her, "Why is it that you remind me of someone . . ." he said.
The girl ignored him and looked round. "Big place" She said, Gunn nodded, taking a seat next to Faith. "So, you got pretty boy hear running the whole thing?" she asked. For a 14 year old she seemed pretty cocky.
"Well, i'm not the boss" Spike smirked, looking towards the figure who entered the room, looking down at some paper-work. He looked up and gasped, seeing the girl.
" . . . Faith?" he asked, not understanding.
"She's a slayer, she ran away or something-"
"She's a kid" Angel said, eyeing Faith.
"Ah, teenager there" Becky said, eyeing the vampire.
"And anyway, you just thought you'd bring in a slayer off the street into a house of vampires?" Angel asked.
"Thank-you, exactly what i was trying to say!" spike said, half to himself, folding his arms, leaning back on his chair and for the final touch, rolling his eyes.
Faith ignored him and leant foreword, looking up at Angel. "That's where it gets interesting you see, she's also a half-vampire"
Angel looked from Faith to the girl, "That's not possible" he said. Becky opened her mouth slightly to reveal small fangs and then looked back at him. "Still, what's that got to do with us?"
"Angel" Spike said, raising an eyebrow, "She's a kid, whoes a slayer and a half-vampire"
"Teenager" Becky snarled under her breath. Then she looked around at them all, "And your all talking about me as if i'm not here" She advanced on Angel and he stood still, looking at her, "I've come to LA to find my father, he's some sort of a vampire or demon or something, i don't know. And before you ask, yes i have a mum, and no, she don't know i'm here"
Angel looked stunned, he wasn't taking any of this in. He tried to ignore her and looked over to Faith."Come with me" he said, and she followed him into his office.
"Listen Faith, you can't just bring in a kid slayer off the street, i mean, she's para-paranormal that's true, but what's she got to do with us? and does her mother even know she's a slayer? and if she doesn't there maybe a police investigation, and if we're caught with her-" He put his papers on his desk and one hand to his head.
"Angel" Faith said calmly, leaning on the window-ledge. "Firstly, she's a kid, no matter what she is, and we can't just leave her, secondly, she's different, even for people like us and she could be inportant, thirdly, i want to help her find her father, i mean, it's not like buisness has been good, and that's what we're meant to do right? help people"
Angel glared at her, and bit his bottom lip, Faith was a hard case to argue with, and she had a good point. This was a new case for them to deal with, once he heard Faith's argument he didn't need alot of time to think about it. "Fine, we'll help her, but if her father turns out to be a psycho- killer demon, don't blame me"
Faith smiled and stood up straight, "Thanks big A" She said and walked out. Angel watched her and raised an eyebrow.
"Big A?" he asked, sitting down in hsi chair, "Now that's just freaky . . ."
Back in the lobby Faith was explaining to Becky that she could stay and they would help her. Becky sat on the sofa and nodded, listening to her. "Thanks i guess" she said finally.
"Yeah, a big fat thanks as well" Spike said, lighting a fag.
"I wasn't talking to you" Becky said, leaning back.
"Ooo Spikey looks like you got some compitition" Faith smiled, flicking her hair back. Gunn started to laugh and Faith turned round, "What?" she hissed.
"See what i mean, spikey" he said, laughing. Faith narrowed her eyes and picked up a pillow from the sofa and started wacking him with it, both of them now laughing. Becky nodded and moved along a little, looking freaked out.
"Oh bloody hell" She heard Spike say behind her, "Welcome to the mad house"
