Chapter 9
Disclaimer: I do not own these characters.
Summary: Faith and Buffy are Twin slayers who move to Sunny Dale with their sister Dawn. Now having to live with an aunt, they meet new people, one which they aren't pleased to see.
I walked into my house and noticed Faith practicing some punches right in the living room. "Faith you can't practice those moves in front of them." I gave her an angry look and she got the point.
"Fine I'll stop, but what's up your-"
I cut her off with another glare. "The Council knows about Brittany and they want to kill her. Now I have to protect her. Which I have no problem doing. They might be the Council but I'm the slayer. With a powerful witch on my side and another slayer."
"You know B I'm usually down with the whole beat up the boss thing, but the Council have some powerful people and we are only three. Then knowing Spike he'll want to join to protect his two girls. I don't see how this is the answer."
I knew she was right. "No you're right this isn't the answer… it's just a solution. The answer is to be a good little slayer girl and let the Council kill my baby, right?"
"B I didn't mean that."
"No I know you didn't. But it's their answer and I should know that. So they want my daughter, they'll put up a fight." I walked into my room to find Spike on the bed with Brittany curled on his chest. He was singing a little classic song for babies. "Hey honey. How's Brittany been today?"
"She was quite the good girl. Never cried once, except when she was hungry. Just like her mother, cries until she gets food."
"Hey I'm offended by that comment!" He smiled and motioned for me to come over. I went and sat on the edge of the bed. I gently rubbed Brittany's back. "I can't believe how tiny she still is. Well I have to go call Tara and go to the grocery store. Want me to take Britt for a while?"
"Yeah luv that would be great."
I picked Britt up from his chest and held her on my hip while walking to the phone. She laughed as I dialed the numbers. "Hello Tara?"
"Yeah who is this?"
"It's me Buffy, I was wondering if I could ask you to do something for me once again."
"Yeah sure what is it?"
"Well it's important but I can't talk about it right now, can you come to Sunny Dale?"
"I have a few errands that involve teleporting to another dimension… that will be a few hours, so I can be there at like 6 tonight?"
"Great that will be fine. You can stay here so no worries of a hotel ok?"
"Ok if you're sure. See you then, bye."
"Later Tara." I hung up and walked down to the car with Britt still on my hip. After she was buckled up and everything I went to the Magic Box. Giles had just recently opened the place with this girl Anya.
"Hello Buffy are you here to buy things and give me money?" Anya greeted as I walked in.
"Actually yes I am here to buy some things."
"Oh good. May I hold your baby? Brittany is just adorable with those eyes."
I handed Britt over to Anya and looked around in the book section. I ran my finger across the titles looking for something that caught my eye. 'Dimensions and portals, Defeating Gods, Gargoyles and other Statues, Dark Magic spells, Fighting- oh wait Dark magic Spells! That will do.'
"Anya I want this book." I showed her the cover and she gave me a weird look.
"Are you sure Buffy? This book contains spells that can only be performed by a witch so powerful that the magic can have powerful back fires. This is magic you don't mess around with; in fact this book shouldn't even be out."
"But Anya it costs a lot and you like money." I bribed her with one of my innocent smiles.
"Oh … you're right, but don't tell Giles."
"Don't worry I won't." I gave another smile and took the money out. She handed Brittany back and I left. "Now where to? Oh yes the grocery store."
I walked into the grocery store with Britt in a little car seat they had there made especially for the shopping carts. "We need carrots, pickles, bread, cheese…this list never ends I swear." As I walked down the long aisles of the store I heard someone behind me.
"Buffy Summers is that you?" I turned around and saw a familiar guy.
"Riley…what are you doing in Sunny Dale?"
"Faith invited me a couple weeks ago… I guess she didn't tell you like always."
I gave a small fake smile. "Well it's always good to see an old friend (softly to myself) …sometimes."
"What was that last part? I couldn't hear you."
"Oh I was just mumbling to myself."
There was an awkward silence before he noticed Brittany in the car seat. "Shouldn't you be pregnant with her still?"
"Well a few things happened and it led to a pre-mature labor. Brittany, that's her name, is all better now. Her father and I love her very much."
"I could love her like my own too."
"Excuse me?" I was astonished by what he said.
"Oh nothing…"
"No I heard what you said. Riley if you want to be with me still, then I am sorry. Spike and I are perfectly happy and in love. There is nothing you can do to break us apart. I have to go now."
---Narrator POV---
As Buffy walked away Riley mumbled softly to himself. "Oh there's something that will break you up…like losing a baby perhaps." He laughed to himself then walked off.
---Buffy's POV---
I was so angry at what riley said I just walked fast with the shopping cart and didn't even shop. Then Brittany let out a small cry and rubbed her eyes. "Poor thing must be tired. Come on Brittany I'll take you home after picking up a few more items." I went through a couple more aisles then to the register. I paid and walked to my car. It was 4:15 now so I had to get home and prepare a guest room for Tara; one close by, but not too close to be disturbed by baby cries. After loading the groceries I shut the trunk and looked to the side of me where my cart was with Brittany. Riley was standing there, caressing Britt's cheek. "Excuse me Riley what do you think you are doing. Leave her alone. What kind of freak are you? God are you stalking me or something?"
"Buffy what are you talking about? I only want to love you and little Brittany like my own family."
"Well we aren't your family. I am with Spike, we are his family." I picked Brittany up and put the cart away. "Please leave us alone. I'm telling Faith all of this, and she wont' be inviting you down here again."
"It's a free country Buff, I don't need permission."
"Leave me alone Riley. Leave Brittany, Spike, Dawn, Faith, and me alone. Don't ever bother us again." I got in my car and buckled Britt up. I sped out of the parking lot, almost running into Riley and a few cars. I pulled over onto the side of the road to call Faith on my cell phone.
"Faith is that you?"
"Yeah B it's me. What's up?"
"Not much except… oh yeah Riley freaking me out! God that guy is a creep! Don't ever invite him to visit again!"
"Whoa B what's wrong?"
"I ran into him and he started talking about making Brittany and me his family and just things that creep me out."
"I'm sorry I had no idea. But I guess I should tell you… I invited him to stay at the house."
"Then un-invite him Faith! I won't have him sleeping in the same house as me."
"Okay I'll call him and tell him not to come. Talk to you later B."
I hung up and took a minute to breathe. "Alright Britt let's get you home now." She giggled and clapped her hands a little. I pulled into our driveway a short time after and saw Spike outside talking to Matt. "Hey guys can I get some help with these groceries?"
They nodded and headed over. I saw Matt picking up the book I bought at the Magic Box. "Hey Buff what's this? Some kind of witch thing?"
"Oh I was just checking out that Magic Box store and thought it looked phony and interesting. It's fake anyways so I thought … it wouldn't hurt to see what lame stuff they can come up with." I gave a big fake smile and he bought it.
"Whatever."
We got everything in the house. And I put Brittany down to nap. A moment later Tara appeared in my room surrounded by little orb-looking things. "Hey I thought you wouldn't be here for another hour and a half?"
"Well the dimension I was going to opened easily so all done." She smiled then walked over to Brittany's crib. "Oh Buffy she's adorable."
"Yeah she is. Um… I'll show you to your room. I just got home so I had no time to put in an extra pillow. There's your own bathroom in there so… you're set. Let me grab that pillow." Tara followed me down the hall to her room after I got the pillow.
"Now what exactly did you want me to do for you?"
"Well you know about the Council right?"
"The Watchers' Council?"
"Yeah them. Well they aren't too happy about one of their slayers having a baby, and want to kill Brittany. I need to protect my daughter, but can't do it alone."
"And that's where I come in right?"
"Right, I figured you're all powerful and stuff… that you could help. I even went and bought this book at the Magic Box."
"The Magic… what?"
"Oh just a local store for witches and stuff that my watcher opened up."
"That's cool."
I pulled the book out of a bag I had been carrying. And showed it to Tara. "It sounded helpful."
"Oh my Goddess… Buffy this is a very powerful book. How did you get a hold of it?"
"Oh let's say an accidental placing on the shelf and a money-loving Anya." Tara looked very confused. "Oh well the point is it can help right?"
"It probably can, but I'll have to look through it." She opened it up and her hair flew back as if there was a sudden wind.
"Wow what was that?"
"Just the energy the book gives off. With the power I have it kind of makes a reaction." I nodded.
"I'll leave you alone to check it out and everything. We're ordering pizza tonight if you want any. Then it's movies all night. It's a girls' night with Faith and Dawn. I'd love it if you joined us. Dawn has always admired you too."
"Sounds like fun. I'll be in here; this book is amazing so it might take a while for me to put it down." She smiled at what fun she would have.
"Alright see you later." I shut her door behind me and walked back into my room grabbing Brittany's baby monitor so I can hear if she cries. Once I got downstairs again I could see Faith and Angel on the couch in a deep discussion. "Should I not be here?"
"Oh it's ok Buffy. Faith and I were almost done talking anyways." Faith nodded in agreement.
"Ok well I'm ordering pizza. Oh and Tara's in the guest bedroom down the hall from us so don't disturb her." They nodded as I picked up the phone and ordered some pizza.
After I ordered a couple pizzas I went to go check on Brittany. I stopped dead at the door as I heard some noises inside. Spike left so who was in there? I quietly opened the door to see a dark figure hovering above the crib. I slipped over to my nightstand and grabbed my stake. "Get out now!"
I switched the light on. "Buffy it's just me." I felt relief as I saw Tara watching Brittany.
"I'm sorry I just got a little freaked, why didn't you have the lights on?"
"I knew she was asleep, but I had a bad vibe coming from this room. It's the weirdest thing though."
"What is?"
"When I came in here the vibe left and I felt a rush of peace as I touched Brittany to make sure she was ok. Buffy maybe you having a baby is some kind of sign or ancient prophecy. Slayers don't have babies, yet you did."
"Well you know what they say. New generations are always daring."
"No Buffy, Brittany has some kind of powerful vibe going on. Maybe after our girls' night we should do some research."
"Um… yeah sure. As long as I get some pizza I'll be good." I gave a quick smile and picked up Britt. I changed her into her pajamas and took her downstairs. Tara was on the couch talking with Dawn and Faith was on Angel's lap talking. "Hey is Spike here?"
"No but he just called and said he's coming home now. He just wanted some Dr. Pepper and Pepsi."
I nodded and handed Britt to Dawn. "Watch her for a few please?"
"Sure Buffy, just as long as she didn't just eat."
I laughed. "No Dawn she'll be good for a while." She said ok and I went to the door as the pizza man pulled up. I paid and took the pizzas.
As soon as that was done I called in Faith, Dawn, and Tara. Brittany was asleep in my lap as we turned on our first movie to watch. The first pizza was gone in a flash, and the second was half gone by the time our girls' night was done. Faith, Tara, and me were all awake at the end, but Dawn had gone up to her room to sleep.
"Ok so what exactly do we need to do?"
"Well I have been researching that book. I didn't get much done, but from what I see there could be a few spells we can use without any powerful back fire." Tara smiled proudly at her discoveries.
"Great so let's do some research about Brittany and where her serious vibes are coming from."
We got on Tara's laptop and looked into a lot of different sites. We only found a few prophecies that spoke of babies, but they turned from English to some ancient language Tara couldn't translate. "I don't get it. Let's just tell Giles that we suspect a prophecy and borrow some of his old books."
"That could work. It's only 9 right now. I don't like to break my concentration so would he be willing to help now?" Tara asked.
"Yeah let me call, and then we can head over." I dialed his number and waited a few rings before he picked up.
"Hello."
"Giles it's me Buffy. Listen my friend Tara is over and we are researching a few things. She's a witch and is helping me with a project. I'll explain if you let us come over?"
"Oh yes that would be quite alright. You may come over now if you please."
"Great, we'll be there in a few. And I'm bringing Britt."
"Alright, goodbye Buffy."
"Later Giles." I hung up the phone and turned towards the rest. "Yeah we can head over now. So bring the laptop." Tara nodded and we all got into my car. We pulled up in front of his house and got out of the car. I didn't bother knocking since he knew we were coming. As I suspected he had what seemed like hundreds of old books out and lots of tea.
"Please do come in and make yourself at home." We all sat down and Tara set up her laptop. "Now what is it exactly you need my help with?"
"Well Tara is a powerful witch and when she picked up Brittany she got a huge vibe from her. She thinks it could be a prophecy or something."
"Well I must say it wouldn't surprise me. A slayer having a baby is rare. Did you find anything so far?"
"Well we found a few prophecies with babies involved but they were like one fourth English and the rest ancient language. We figured you had some books and stuff to help us."
"Well yes that maybe true. Let's start with this book."
I took it from him and looked at the cover. "Hmm… Languages of the ancient prophecies. Sounds like it might do the trick." I opened the book and flipped through some pages, scanning the writing. I noticed some writing like the one in a prophecy we saw. "Hey guys here's some writing from a prophecy we saw."
Tara and Giles came over, while Faith held Brittany. "Yes I can translate this easily with the help they give. Where is the prophecy that had this writing?" Tara opened up a web page and showed Giles. "Yes this book will help. Just give me a minute and can have it figured out." He took a minute and read the prophecy. "Oh dear. I believe this one is the prophecy we need. It makes perfect sense."
"What does it say?" Tara asked curiously.
"Well it talks about the chosen one, the al powerful one giving a gift to the world through a birth. That would be Buffy having Brittany. It then says 'the pure one will destroy the monsters beneath the seal with her blood.'"
"No!"
"Buffy there could be a mistake; it doesn't mean she has to die. We don't even know what seal or what monsters."
"I'm not sacrificing for some monsters. I am the slayer, I can kill them myself."
"Buffy we will do more research later. For now just pack up and take your daughter home. Don't let her out of your sight for one moment. The prophecy reveals great danger for the pure one. Danger that the chosen girl might not be able to fight off."
"Thanks Giles. Come on we're going home." Faith nodded and the three of us, and Brittany got in the car and drove home.
---Narrator's POV---
The three traveled in silence back to the house. All thinking of the danger that lies ahead for the sweet innocent Brittany… and as for Brittany, she just sat there with her blue eyes glistening. Yet nobody noticed the certain orange orbs floating in her blue eyes.

I noticed some writing like the one in a prophecy we saw. "Hey guys here's some writing from a prophecy we saw."
Tara and Giles came over, while Faith held Brittany. "Yes I can translate this easily with the help they give. Where is the prophecy that had this writing?" Tara opened up a web page and showed Giles. "Yes this book will help. Just give me a minute and can have it figured out." He took a minute and read the prophecy. "Oh dear. I believe this one is the prophecy we need. It makes perfect sense."
"What does it say?" Tara asked curiously.
"Well it talks about the chosen one, the al powerful one giving a gift to the world through a birth. That would be Buffy having Brittany. It then says 'the pure one will destroy the monsters beneath the seal with her blood.'"
"No!"
"Buffy there could be a mistake; it doesn't mean she has to die. We don't even know what seal or what monsters."
"I'm not sacrificing for some monsters. I am the slayer, I can kill them myself."
"Buffy we will do more research later. For now just pack up and take your daughter home. Don't let her out of your sight for one moment. The prophecy reveals great danger for the pure one. Danger that the chosen girl might not be able to fight off."
"Thanks Giles. Come on we're going home." Faith nodded and the three of us, and Brittany got in the car and drove home.
---Narrator's POV---
The three traveled in silence back to the house. All thinking of the danger that lies ahead for the sweet innocent Brittany… and as for Brittany, she just sat there with her blue eyes glistening. Yet nobody noticed the certain orange orbs floating in her blue eyes.
