A/n: Hey, I updated. Please review.
Katherine Isabelle Summers-Angel was the name she was given at birth. Katty was what she was known as to her extended family in the short three months she was with them. Rianna was the name she was given when she met the man she would forever despise for making her what she was. Two different identities, one a heartless woman who didn't stop as her blade fell and the sweet girl who kept a smile on her face and a witty remark in her back pocket. As she watched Melly skip a few feet ahead of her, she felt a small surge of jealousy run throughout her body. When she was her sister's age, Ria had spent the majority of her time hunting; honing her abilities to that of a killer. Melly's hair was tied into two pigtails, both of which bounced as she hummed an out of tune lullaby. Connor followed behind them, talking with Faith with a look of adoration on his face. Shaking her head, Rianna called out to the five year old to slow down a bit as they entered the grave yard. Cordy and Angel finally had a night alone at home, being as Faith and Spike had taken them patrolling, Lorne was having dinner with a contact, and Fred and Gunn were on the long awaited honeymoon.
Punch.

Kick.
Block.
Body twist.
Slash.
Stake.
She grinned in delight as the vampire exploded into a fine dust that managed to sneak its way into her mouth and leave the bitter taste of vengeance. Ria moved towards Melly, watching the child fight with an innocence everyone at their home had lost long ago. She stared at the moon, shaking her head off as a face seemingly looked back at her with haunted eyes. She smiled as Melly plunged the wooden point into the vampire's chest, jumping up and down for joy as he blew away in the wind. Connor stood up, wiping the dirt and remains from his jeans before turning towards the pair of girls.
"Damn good night, eh?"
"Hell yeah," Ria retorted, throwing Cordelia's "no cursing around the children" rule out the window. "Could they flirt anymore?" She asked, leaning against the tree as she watched Faith and Spike engaging in a not-so-subtle love fight.
"Well, looks like we should head on home. It's way past Melly's bedtime," Connor smiled sadly, lifting the girl into his arms before shouting to the two champions and walking towards the hotel. The vampire and slayer followed him, chatting adamantly about something Ria had little interest in.
"You are beautiful," She turned at the voice, her hair whipping around her as she unsheathed the knife from her belt.
"Who the hell are you?" She questioned, looking the woman over. She was dressed in a renaissance styled dress, flow-y and white. So white in fact that it just about matched her skin. Her eyes blazed so bright, the teenager could not determine what color exactly they were.
"You'll find out soon, my beautiful girl," The woman reached out a glowing hand, touching it lightly to Ria's cheek. She watched her, transfixed by the extreme comforting feeling that overcame her body. The woman slowly disappeared.
"Don't go," The words died on her lips as she found herself left alone in the graveyard.
A/n: All will be revealed soon; if you review that is.
