"Faith," Slayer glared as she shifted into defense position. "I didn't know they released convicted murders."
"Relax B, I'm totally reformed which is more than I can say for you. Patrolling by yourself, very sloppy." Faith chided. "Anyone could sneak up on you."
"Buffy," Angel shouted from behind her staking the other vampire that had been sneaking up on her.
"Case in point," Faith laughed.
"One of your surprises Faith?" Slayer asked.
"Hardly my style B, but thank god for overprotective souled vampires huh." Faith smiled as she helped Angel up.
"Well having Faith is always good." Angel quipped as he kissed Faith.
"Wait, you two are together?" Slayer asked stepping back from the two with her stake raised.
"Yeah, I've been working at Angel Inc. for almost a year now, and if we wanted to kill you we would have let that vamp have you so that Blondie Bear couldn't trace the killing back to us." Faith assured her. "Willow called and said there was trouble in Sunny-Hell. So we decided to come help. So lets get back to the house to discuss strategies and we can learn what's up."

"He's been gone too long." Buffy paced the living room while Willow was working on the laptop.
"Buffy, he's only been gone twenty minutes." Willow reminded her. "He'll be okay."
"But he's not a superhero anymore," Buffy stated. "I should never have let him go search for her. He's as helpless as Xander."
"Hey, actually in the room here," Xander chided coming in from the kitchen.
"Sorry, Xander, but I'm nervous." Buffy apologized. "He's not used to not having powers. What if he can't handle himself in a fight and gets himself killed. I'll have to save the world and raise three kids by myself/"
"I'd never let that happen," came the voice from the front door.
"Spike," Buffy screamed as she ran to him and hugged him. "I was so worried."
"I know Luv, but everything will be alright." Spike assured her with a kiss/
"Wow, this place gets freakier every time I come back." Faith said from the open door with Angel and Slayer behind her.
