Mimic: Chapter 2
Faith and Floor walked slowly through their third cemetery; Faith couldn't help but absently stroke the now warm metal of her brass knuckles, thinking of Buffy. Floor on the other hand, was anything but calm…
"So, we're just talking, all regular and shit. Then she says she'll see me tonight and then, Wham!!" Floor rambled exasperated. Faith stared at Floor, cocking an eyebrow and chuckled. "She hit you? Wow…Liv really grew a pair." Floor glared at Faith and nervously scratched her head. "No, no! She…..sh-she said the…L word." Floor mumbled the last part.
"Really? I love that show."
"FAITH! This is fucking serious, man! What the fuck do I do?! I mean...Shit! I don't even know what the fuck I mean!" The blonde angrily kicked a headstone, cracking it on impact. Faith sighed and patted her friend on the back.
"Take it easy there, shortstop. This is a good thing…uhh…right? You wanted to be with her, didn't you?" Floor stopped walking for a moment, before laughing almost bitterly.
"You know….yeah I actually do. I really….really do. But that's not the point, F. I have never…NEVER, done one of these things right before…..My long line of exes are right there, as evidence."
Faith was about to say something, before a newbie vamp lunged at them, from a nearby crypt. The brunette gave an annoyed sigh, grabbing the vampire by her collar. Happy to finally use her new gift, Faith went to work pummeling her attacker.
"You." Hit " Assholes" Hit "Have" Hit "The worst" Hit "Timing"
Faith kicked the vamp onto her back. She reached into her jacket and pulled out a stake."Go fill an ashtray, bloodsucking bitch." The slayer slammed the wooden weapon into the vampire's chest, reducing the pathetic creature to nothing but dust. Faith slid her stake back into her jacket and got back into step with Floor.
"Look, I'm not a genius at these things either. But Livy adores you. If you love her, tell her. Let things go from there." The younger slayer nodded and shrugged.
"We'll see…. Thanks F." Faith playfully punched Floor in the arm and chuckled.
"No prob, punk." The two slayers continued their patrol in silence, both thinking of their selective partners.
Back at Faith's apartment…
Buffy typed away at her laptop, IM'ing Willow.
W: How are things going?
B: Really great actually, she got me a necklace for the 1-month anniversary.
W: You got Faith to celebrate a one-month anniversary…? How'd you manage to train her so fast?!
B: If there is, an opportunity to receive free nookie…Faith will take it.
W: Man Buffy! You Actually got Will to blush through an IM, lmao!!
B: Hi Ken…
Buffy stopped typing when she heard a soft knock at the door. Closing her laptop, she got up to answer it. When she opened door, she was surprised to see Livy standing there, nervously staring down at her hands. For the past 3 weeks, Buffy had patrolled every now and then with the quiet girl, even growing to enjoy her company.
"Hey Liv, what's up?" The older slayer asked lightly, trying not to add to the other girl's nervousness. Liv looked up slowly, trying to make eye with Buffy, failing miserably. "W-well…I-I w-was wondering…I-if you could umm…..g-give me some advice, m-maybe." Buffy gave a reassuring smile and nodded. "Sure Liv, come on it." She stepped to the side allowing the shorter girl (amazingly) to pass her, before shutting the door softly.
"So what's up Livy, what can guru Buffy help you with?"
Liv paced for a moment, fidgeting with a bracelet Floor gave to her. She took a deep breathe, before speaking in a shaky voice. "I uh…I s-said something….t-to Floor today….a-and I…uh…I-I don't kn-know what to…do."
"Well….did you two get into a fight?" Buffy asked sounding more confused, then worried. Liv's head shot up in surprise "Wh-What? No….nono. F-Floor and I never fight." Buffy cocked an eyebrow in disbelief. "Your joking, right?" Liv shook her head. "No...w-we didn't fight…..I um…..sort of said….that…I um…..loved her." The last two words were practically squeaked, out of the young girl's mouth. Buffy smiled.
"Aww…Liv! That is so sweet. How did she react?" Liv's eyes diverted to the carpet. "That's...um……that's the problem. I didn't really...stay to measure her reaction."
"You ran?" "Yes….pretty much….yep. So…..what do I do?" Buffy shook her head and shrugged. "Well…Liv there's not much to do. You do love her right?" Liv nodded her head, blushing profusely. "Ok. She loves you too, right?" Liv shrugged and looked down again. "I hope so….Floor doesn't really…..say much about it….but she looks at me sometimes…..and I feel…I don't know…just really special."
Buffy couldn't help but smile softly. She knew what Livy was talking about, because that's exactly how she felt when Faith looked at her. The blonde shook out of her dreamy thoughts and looked at Livy with a confident smile. "I don't think you have anything to worry about Livy. I've seen Floor around you, and I'm pretty sure the feeling is mutual. The next time you see her, just relax and act like you two usually do." Livy smiled back at Buffy, the younger slayer looked more relaxed now and not so fidgety.
"Thank you, Buffy. I-I really needed to hear someone say that….I'm glad it came from you. You and Faith seem to be...perfect for each other."
"No problem Livy. You want to hang out here till they get back? We could watch some TV if you want or something." Livy nodded, a shy smile spread over her face at the thought of Floor coming back soon. Her and Buffy sat comfortably on the couch and waited for their slayers to return.
Elsewhere. . .
"Faith, that last vamp SO counts as my kill! I staked the asshat!" Floor yelled, throwing a punch at the vampire, currently attacking her. Faith slugged a second vampire a few yards away and laughed. "What the fuck ever, pip! I softened his ass up for you! You just ran in-" Faith threw a back kick at her vamp sending him flying "at the last fucking minute, and staked him, before I could!" Floor flipped her vampire over her shoulder, and staked him as he hit the ground.
"HA! You were to slow! My stake dusted his ass. My stake, my kill!"
Faith dusted her kill and walked over to her companion. "Your kill or not, punk. I'm still ahead by 2." She stuck her tongue out at the younger slayer and walked ahead. The two slayers only got about ten feet before two well-dressed men appeared in front of them.
"What the fuck..?" Both Faith and Floor mumbled.
The man on the right grinned at the two slayers, his crystal blue eyes shining with what looked like excitement…. and hunger.
"Are these our new friends, Mr. Swan?" Mimic asked gleefully. Mr. Swan nodded, rubbing his hands together, like a kid in a candy store."I believe so Mr. Mimic, can you not feel the pure….power…. radiating off of their flesh." Mimic gave a gleeful cry, before applauding his partner.
"Brilliant Mr. Swan. Simply brilliant."
Faith and Floor, who were silent through their confusion, looked at each other."Um…Fai. This is….fucking weird…..We kill them right?" Faith shook her head, she felt off about these guys. They weren't run of the mill demons.
"Floor…be ready to run, when I say." The younger slayer nodded.
"Mr. Mimic, I don't believe our friends want to introduce themselves." Mr. Swan mocked feigning insult.
"We don't owe you assholes 'introductions'." Faith shot at them.
"So true, Mr. Swan. However, introduction isn't necessary; they won't need their names for much longer. Will they Mr. Swan?" Mimic continued ignoring Faiths comment. Swan shook his head, still grinning wickedly. Faith couldn't stand it anymore; her senses were screaming at her, that these guys were bad news.
"Floor, run. Now!" Before either slayer could even turn to dart away, the two men vanished and reappeared behind them.
"No need to be rude now." Mr. Swan chirped.
The slayers felt a numbing cold on the back of their necks, within seconds dizziness overcame both girls. Neither of them were conscious long enough, to fight the darkness that slowly took them under.
