Faith watched in stunned silence as the silly putty guy cut off the head of the last vamp with his giant scissor hands. It had taken awhile to convince them that they needed to kill vamps on site, but now that they were in the habit, she was impressed with their moves.
"Well, if it isn't a harlot and three abominations to God," came a voice from behind the group.
"Shit," cursed Faith as she turned around to face the man she knew would be there.
"Don't worry, I'll get to you in a moment harlot, I simply need to take care of the gene-trash first," said Caleb as he started to walk towards the group.
"What did you say?" asked the blond hunk with bone claws.
"I believe you heard me just fine," said the preacher with a smile. "You see I've been told all about you freaks of nature, and I must say that I'm going to have fun slaughtering all of you."
"Hold back guys, this is the bastard that poked out Xanders eye. He took on two Slayers and a master vampire without breaking a sweat, so don't do anything I'd do," said Faith as she noticed the three mutants she was with tense.
"No getting close then. Don't worry that works just fine for me," said the Asian chick as she started to throw flames at the man.
Instead of the instant barbecue Faith was expecting Caleb just stood there, letting the flames wash over him. Smiling through the flames Caleb shouted, "I serve a being that controls the fires if damnation! You'll have to do better than this!"
"Can do," growled Calvin as he shifted into his metal form and began to shoot red beams out of his eyes like Superman.
Faith was glad to see that the eyebeams had some effect on Caleb. She was about to help out when she spotted the Bringers closing in.
"Yo, Putty-Boy!" shouted Faith as she attempted to gain the attention of the only other member not fighting Caleb.
"My name is Morph, not Putty-Boy," said the hyperactive shape shifter.
"Whatever," dismissed Faith. "We got some more bad guys coming in. New rule, if it doesn't have eyes, kill it."
"As you say, my goddess of leather pants!" said Morph as he leapt into the fight in the form of an Arab prince.
Faith just grinned as she plunged her stake into the heart of a Bringer. She was beginning to like Morph, even his jokes. Maybe she should give him a roll after the fight was over, could be interesting doing it with someone that can look like anyone.
Thirty minutes later Faith looked up from her last kill to see a somber looking Morph standing over her, covered in blood and looking a little ill.
"They didn't turn to dust like the vampires. In fact, other than the eye thing, they looked and felt completely human," said Morph in a serious tone.
"Maybe they were at one time," said Faith before pointing to a Bringer corps that was already half way through the decomposition process, "but they're demons now. If they were ever human, you did them a favor by killing them."
Morph didn't look like he liked Faiths explanation, but it looked like he would except it for the moment.
Turning around Faith was just in time to see Caleb knock out Mimic and start walking towards a helpless Sunfire. Trying to decide what to do Faith was startled to hear Morph say something.
"What?" asked Faith, not believing what she heard.
"I said gather up the dead bodies. I'm going to need ammo to make sure he doesn't do anything to Mariko," said Morph as be began to shift into a freaking big cannon.
Not having any better ideas faith began to load Morph with the bodies of dead Bringers. She didn't know how a guy who was complaining about them a few seconds ago could come up with this plan, she just hoped that it worked.
Soon Morph began to fire, each shot sending a corps into the fallen preacher at just under the speed of sound. The impact of each shot splattered the Bringer corps, and forced the fallen holy man back a few feet. As soon as Caleb was back far enough Morph seemed to go into some kind of rapid fire mode, quickly burying the preacher under a mound of dead flesh.
"Damn Morph, that is just sick," said Faith as the mutant melted back into his normal shape.
"Yeah well, I figured that this would involve the least amount of pain," said Morph with a grin. When he saw the look Faith was giving him he decided to continue, saying, "That is, the least amount of pain for us. I figure that asshole of a preacher disserved all the pain he got and then some."
"Lets wake those to up and head back before he digs himself out," said Faith with a grin. Oh yea, this guy was worth taking around the block once, maybe even twice if she didn't ware him out too quickly.
