"You had to be right didn't you B." Faith said looking around.

"Ok just an idea, but why don't we go back to the house grab some more weapons and find out what we're actually dealing with." Buffy suggested.

Seeing that would be their best option the slayers began to walk back the way they had come. As Kennedy walk towards the sunlit area she was thrown backwards landing on the ground behind the others who rushed to her side as she began to sit up.

"What the hell?" she asked rubbing the back of her head.

Hope moved away as the others helped Kennedy to her feet. Bending down she picked up a small rock from the ground and threw it in the direction they had been walking. It hit some kind of barrier then bounced off like Kennedy had.

"Ok that's not good." said Buffy

"Its like this place is cloaked, it'd explain why we didn't see it." said Kennedy

"I'm less concerned with the how we got here, and more with the how we get out." Faith said running her hand along the barrier.

"Something tells me this day isn't gonna get any better." Hope said pointing at a small group of demons who were charging towards them.

"Looks like the welcoming committee." Faith said pulling the knives from her coat, the others doing so as well.

Buffy tackled the nearest demon to the ground, punching him a few times then stabbed him with his own sword before throwing her dagger into the back of a demon that was headed for Kennedy who was preoccupied with another demon. With her knives Faith swung at the demon who narrowly avoided been cut to shreds, a powerful kick sent him into the barrier before slumping to the ground. Kennedy still wasn't getting anywhere with the demon, she swung at him but he dodged her attacks, punching her in the stomach he didn't give her time to recover hitting her again he sent her head first into the nearest tree. She slumped to the ground and lay there unmoving.

"Kennedy!" Faith shouted before rushing the demon that was now going in for the kill.

Jumping on his back she placed her hands on either side of his head and gave it a quick twist that was followed by a sickening crack, the demon and Faith fell to the floor. Buffy helped Hope who had two of them on her. Grabbing Hope by the throat the demon lifted her into the air, struggling to release herself from his grip she reached for one of the scythe's at her side lifting it she stabbed him threw the eye with it, which resulted in them both crumpling to the ground. Coughing Hope rubbed her throat as she stood up.

"Chump." was all she said before joining Faith who was knelt at Kennedy's side.

Buffy dodged attacks from the second demon before gaining the upper hand, and slicing his head off with the sword she had gained earlier. With that taken care of she walked other to the others.

"She's out cold." said Faith from where she was knelt beside Kennedy.

"What do we do now, we can't leave so..." Hope began.

"Well whatever it is we can't stay here we need to move." Buffy said looking around them.

"B's right when those guys don't turn up they'll send more." Faith said.

"Ok well you two grab what weapons you can of those guys and I'll get Kennedy." Hope said as she lifted her over her shoulder.

"This way," Buffy said leading the way with Hope between her and Faith so they could cover her and Kennedy if there were anymore attacks.

"Ok we get outta this in one piece someone's going on a diet." Hope said referring to Kennedy.

They continued to walk for a short distance before coming to a halt.

"You see that." Buffy said pointing to an area of the woods that was lit with torches.

"You think that's where our welcoming committee came from?" Faith asked as she helped Hope lower Kennedy to the ground.

"Well it would explain why there are about thirty demons surrounding us right now." said Hope

Buffy and Faith who had been concentrating on the area in front of them turned to see that hope was right.

"This day's not gonna get any better is it?" Buffy asked Hope.

"We could take them." Faith said counting the demons.

"Sure you take the ten on the left we'll get the ..." Hope began but broke off suddenly. Looking around her the woods began to spin.

"Hope you ok? Hope?" Buffy asked the younger slayer.

"Yo! Future girl you in there?" Faith said after there was still no response from Hope.

"You were right this days not gonna get any better." Hope said before collapsing.

Landing face down on the ground Buffy and Faith saw that there was a dart sticking out of her back, Kneeling beside her Buffy pulled out the dart and Faith rolled her over onto her back.

"Get out of here, run." was all Hope said before darkness claimed her.

Before either of them could move the demons closed in on them, suddenly Buffy felt a sharp sting in her shoulder, looking down she saw a dart imbedded there.

"This is bad." she said pulling out the dart as her vision began to blur.

At the same time Faith was hit in the stomach with a dart. With all the slayers out for the count the demons moved in.
