Author's Notes: I know someone asked about Special Unit 2 You can try the
UPN website or you can try just typing in Special Unit 2 in a search engine
and no Kerri is not from Charmed, though I kind of tried to make her
personality like combination of Buffy, Prue, Phoebe, Piper, Paige and
Willow.

**************************************************************************
After Leo had found the book he'd orbed them all to P3. It was decidedly a lot less damaged than the manor. It was still standing for one thing, and Leo repaired the parts that quite possibly could've collapsed on their heads.
Spike was confused on one thing about these so called 'Angels' "So my question is...If a whitelighter thingie can't heal dead people..."
"Or Animals," Kerri added.
"Dead people or Animals, Then why the bloody hell can they heal inanimate objects?" Spike continued.
(Author's Note: I've always wanted to know that)
Leo opened his mouth to respond and then closed it, he really didn't know the answer. So he just shrugged.
"If a vampire is so strong and powerful why does it take something as simple as sunlight, or a large toothpick to kill them..." Nick said rather bitterly.
"Or a girl," Chris added.
Logan had been quiet besides the introductions, which he muttered a greeting, to each of them. They were surprised when he had finally spoken up, "So are we going to figure out what the hell is going on or sit around and pretend like nothing happened?"
"Well what do you want us to do? Sulk? While we're consulting our magic eight balls for answers? It would do us no good to be depressed, about this yeah its completely and utterly devastating but what are we supposed to do? How do you expect us to act?, if someone knows how we should act let me know because I haven't a clue, and as far as figuring out what happened I could ask my magic mirror but it shattered in the rubble," Kerri snapped.
Logan glared at her, his eyes seeming to look right through her, but she didn't waver. The only thing she did do is meet his glare with a indifferent gaze.
"I'm going to go consult the other elders, please guys keep it together try NOT to kill each other," Leo said then he orbed away in a whirlpool of azure lights.
"You know what kid, that attitude is going to get you hurt," Logan all but growled at Kerri, "Because at this point, I'll kill you if you piss me off."
Spike's head snapped in his direction. He felt a slight protective instinct toward the girl. Maybe because she's the only one that didn't look at him as if he were about to drain them dryer than the Sahara. Of all of them though she was the most bitable, but for some reason she kind of reminded Spike of a little sister, so he wasn't planning on eating her.
He didn't say anything he just glared, Logan didn't even take notice. Angel on the contrary did; he was a bit confused by this. If he had been defending his food he would've had said something, he wouldn't have let the threat go unnoticed. If he had been protecting a future girlfriend, he'd just have killed Logan, or tried to. Angel was stumped as to what his motive was.
Nick on the other hand wasn't quiet about sticking up for the girl, "Hey take it easy," Nick snapped.
Logan was about to reply with some witty asinine comment, when he realized he probably should 'Take it easy', she was after all only a girl, most likely no older than nineteen or Twenty. Logan took a seat in the corner, grumbling mentally.
"I'll turn your punk ass into a chinchilla too," Kerri muttered under her breath crossing her arms.
She sat down next to Spike at a table and Hudson promptly put half of his body in her lap, mostly because he couldn't fit the other half on her.
"Jeez, babe, you need to go on a diet," Kerri grunted to Hudson.
Hudson let out a friendly growl, and wagged his tale.
Spike gave Kerri the once over as if to make sure she wasn't hurt, then he proceeded to stare blankly at the floor. Nick moved over to sit by her.
"He's a little testy," Nick told her smiling halfway.
"He's an ass," Kerri replied.
"Can you um...Really turn him into a chinchilla?" Nick asked lowering his voice just a bit.
"No but no one needs to know that," Kerri said lowering her voice almost to a whisper.
Now if Spike had been a normal person he wouldn't have heard what she said, it would've sounded like a faint mummer. Spike wasn't a normal person, so Spike heard her clearly.
He smiled a bit at that, he'd doubted that she could in the first place but now he was sure.
"Of all things why a chinchilla?" Nick asked.
"I don't know...because frog was cliché," Kerri replied.
She pet Hudson on his head and he jumped off of her and hopped up on Spike. But Instead of calmly jumping on him, Hudson charged him, jumping up and putting his front paws on Spike's chest, and knocking over Spike and his chair. Hudson stood on top of him licking him in the face.
"Get OFF!" Spike growled.
If Hudson noticed Spike's annoyance he didn't show it, he just continued to slobber on him. Kerri burst into laughter, and moved to pull Hudson off of him.
"Hudson, get off of that poor British man," Kerri said with bit of a smirk as she pulled Hudson off of Spike by Hudson's collar.
'Poor British Blood sucking bastard' Nick thought with disdain.
Nick had the tendency to not like links, or as these people called them, demons. To him they were the same thing, there were very few that deserved to live, and these vampires that weren't supposed to exist, weren't any exception. The whitelighters weren't that bad he'd decided that they weren't the same thing as the links and demons, Logan he wasn't sure about yet. Kerri on the other hand, seemed to be the most normal one even though she was a witch, plus she was cute, but he still had to be careful. The last witch he met was cute too, well at least she made her self look cute until she turned into a hag. Then there was the spider woman, though he'd never admit it that cut him deep.
Spike pulled himself from the floor and searched the mess behind the bar for a rag, which he found, but also he found two bottles of vodka, he didn't generally drink that but, it would do. He was surprised to see how many things were in tact. He found a whole bunch of glasses which were packed in boxes, with foam and bubble wrap so a lot of them were unbroken, he grabbed a whole bunch of glasses and brought them over.
"Come on all lets have a round shall we?" Spike said sitting back down at the table.
"I'm in," Nick said quickly.
"Me too," Kerri agreed.
"I could us a drink," Chris muttered.
"Angel? Logan was it?" Spike asked the other two.
Logan shrugged, "What the hell?"
Angel just shook his head, and retreated to his own corner. ***************************30min. later*****************************
"Yeah I killed two of 'em," Spike said his speech slurred, "I don't like to talk about it, you know with me being so modest and all..."
Kerri burst into laughter, "I hardly think you're the modest type," she said taking a gulp of the vodka.
"Good point there was this one during the boxer rebellion..." Spike started.
Nick downed the rest of his glass, and started on his fifth one, "Your bragging about killing a teenage girl?"
Spike was silent for a minute then he cocked his head to the side, took a drink and said, "Well yeah..."
"Your a sick bastard," Nick snapped.
"I really am aren't I?" Spike grinned.
All of them around the table were drunk and their speech was slurred. They had gone through a bottle and a half of Vodka. For the past half an hour Spike had been talking about all the people he'd killed and Nick was getting pissed, No Nick was pissed. The alcohol was making him go against anything he'd do in his right mind.
"Yeah you are and if you don't shut the hell up I'm knock your ass out," Nick snapped.
"Feisty little demon cop aren't ya?" Spike laughed.
Kerri had had her share of drinks but she was sober enough to see where this was headed.
"Nick, don't," Kerri said.
Nick stood up as did Spike.
"Hey Logan, Chris aren't you gonna do something?" Kerri asked.
"Me and Chris are going to finish off the rest of this bottle," Logan replied gruffly, and Chris nodded in agreement.
"Angel?" Kerri said glancing around the room, but she found that the Souled vampire was MIA.
"He left 'bout ten minutes ago," Logan told her.
Kerri sucked her teeth, stood up putting herself between the two. She stood facing Nick, she put her hands on his shoulders and gently tried to push him back into his chair. Nick wasn't having that, he grabbed her by the wrists.
"Let go of me Nick," Kerri said calmly.
"Okay..." Nick replied, but not before kissing her roughly.
Kerri hit him hard in the mouth; Nick spit out a mouth full of blood on the floor. Before either of the two could say anything Spike had moved around Kerri and grabbed Nick by the throat and slammed him brutally onto the bar. Normally Nick could hold his own, but in this case he was really drunk, and Spike wasn't as drunk as he seemed because of the fact that he was a vampire. Kerri had half the mind to let them fight, not that she could really do anything, because she'd had too much to drink to even remember any spells.
Spike threw him into the wine rack, and at the same time he vamped out, "You know I'm actually kind of hungry."
Suddenly a sharp pain went through Spike's abdomen. He looked down to find three metal claws protruding through him. Logan retracted his claws then grabbed Spike by the shoulders and threw him onto the table.
"Stay there!" he commanded, then moved toward Nick who obviously hadn't had his ass kicked enough because he still wanted to fight Spike.
Logan hauled him up by his throat and held him firmly in place, "Just stop, or I'll remove one of your limbs got that bub?"
"Yeah, Yeah I got it..." Nick muttered.
Spike rolled off of the table and into a chair. He flicked a glance to Kerri, "You all right love?"
"Funny you should ask me that..." then she turned to Logan, "Did you have to stab him with those badly in need of a manicure claws of yours? Its not like he started the fight."
"I could care less what the hell he did, he's just lucky I didn't take off his head," Logan snapped.
"Love the only reason he stepped in the fight was because I was going to kill the cop..." Spike said shrugging.
"He's smarter then he looks ain't he?," Logan replied.
"I guess that's better than looking smarter than you are huh?" Kerri replied, "You know your a real bastard..."
Kerri now stood in front of Logan with her arms crossed.
"You sat here and listened to him, talk about all that crap he's done, and you still have the nerve to stand here and stick up for that soulless blood sucking son of a bitch?" Logan snapped, "Maybe your the dangerous one, or maybe your an unfeeling bitch."
Kerri punched him harder than she'd punched Nick. Logan's head snapped to the side and something gave way in her hand.
"Look around you, I hate to break it to you but you all lost everything and everyone, I didn't loose anyone, Because I had no one to loose, Because my family was killed in a fire...all except for my dog, it was ruled arson and the person that did it got five years probation and time in a mental institution because he was ruled insane...so now I'm basically jaded, not unfeeling..." she replied caustically.
All was silent for a good long minute while everyone stared at her. Then Logan, said in a low voice, "I'm sorry."
Then he grabbed her by the neck, "But if you ever punch me again, I'm going to gut you like a fish kid are we clear?"
Spike was up out of his seat within a space of three seconds, "Let her go now!"
"Pipe down bub, I won't kill her but I will kill you," Logan said flatly before turning back to Kerri, "We clear?"
"Crystal," Kerri choked out.
"Good," Logan let her go and Spike darted for him but Kerri caught his arm, "Don't bother..."
In the middle of the floor a spiral of bluish lights appeared as did two figures. Kerri was surprised to find that Chris was one of them, in all the commotion they hadn't realized he'd left.
"What the hell is going on?" Leo demanded surveying the damage.
Nick stumbled up next to Kerri and Spike and draped his arm around Kerri.
"Nothin'" Nick said casually, like a kid.
Kerri shrugged his arm off and moved to the opposite side of Spike. And Spike just glared at Nick.
"Leave you guys alone for a little while and..." Leo muttered.
"Well we didn't kill each other..." Spike smirked.
"Oh great..." Leo said sarcastically moving toward Nick to heal him, "You guys all need to sleep this off, and when you wake up I'll tell you what's going on...Where's Angel?"
"I'll go find him," Nick said, his stance swaying a bit, threatening to fall over.
"No, Stay here and sleep, I'm going to find him, Can't really blame him for leaving anyway," Leo snapped.
Leo orbed out leaving them once again, which was probably not the smartest move.
**************************************************************************
Kerri lay on the couch, using Hudson as a pillow and Spike's jacket as a blanket. She actually had managed to fall asleep. Spike on the other hand couldn't, but that was mainly because it was dark outside, and he being a vampire was nocturnal. He stood leaning up against the wall in the shadows near by his newly found little sister.
Chris had let Logan sleep on the couch in the back room, where the three sisters, his mother and two aunts little did anyone know, had let him sleep. Chris was sitting on a bar stool with his head slumped over on the Book of Shadows.
Nick still stumbled, around the bar barely able to walk but he search in vain for something else to drink. Spike watched him carefully making sure he got nowhere near Kerri. But unfortunately for the overly intoxicated cop, Spike's patience was wearing very thin.
"Sit down...Mate," Spike growled in a low voice.
"Make me prick," Nick snapped.
"Don't tempt me, stupid ponce," he muttered.
Though Nick being as drunk as he was made his attention equivalent to that of a third grader. His eyes wonder to the sleeping witch, "I'd love to f..." Nick was abruptly cut off, when Spike closed the rather large gap between the two in five seconds flat and punched him square in the jaw, knocking him out cold. Spike left him just where he was figuring that maybe he'd be sober when he woke up. Spike on the other hand sat down beside the couched and leaned up against it.
