A/N This chapter is for the person who helped me decide the direction the story will go in mmooch!

I'm out of here!

Cleveland 2007

Willow focussed on trying to locate Buffy. Every time she tried, the spell failed. In fact, the results were becoming increasingly more wild.

Willow huffing, "Giles the spell won't work I'm being blocked."

Xander frowned not liking the sound of that, "Why won't you tell us where she is?"

Faith stood leaning against the wall, she'd enjoyed watching the frustration increase. They'd all assumed, they knew what was best and that Buffy couldn't survive without their help. As if, to Faiths eyes it was the other way round, "Look Buffy splitting was her right. I won't help unless she gives me permission."

Giles tried to do the old man routine, "Faith it is important she needs to say true to her calling."

Faith rolled her eyes, "She's been fighting since before she could walk guys. She honestly doesn't know how not to."

Xander letting his jealously get the better of him, "Yeah I mean it's not like she hasn't split before."

A feral look crossed Faith's features, Buffy and her had repaired their relationship. Faith felt sick, she couldn't belive the way these guys thought they had the right to judge her sister slayer. Faith chose to go on the attack and level a few home truths, "You mean L.A. Yeah I mean she stabbed the man she loved, after her best friend forgot to mention a certain soul spell. Then, when she runs to get a handle on everything she spends time in a hell dimension helping a bunch of kids escape." She just tutted as if disappointed, "I mean yeah she really abandoned her calling."

All had paled upon hearing that, Willow managed to stutter out, "She never told us."

Faith openly laughed at that, "Was that before or after you started to level your disappointment. I mean could she get a word in or, did you just jump down her throat."

Willow was sad, "How do you know all of this?"

Faith shrugged, "Honestly, even now we have a bond that the mini's couldn't comprehend. Actually you know what I think I'll go meet up with B. I hear her brothers are a riot."

Giles knew he couldn't stop her, he only felt sadness that they'd forced the issue, "Is she happy?"

"She's hunting and she needs that especially now."

She didn't choose to expand on her statement. She sauntered out the room flipping her cell open, "Hey B is their room for one more on the road trip?"


JJ's car

Buffy felt her cell go off, seeing the caller ID she smirked, "What's the stitch?"

"Hey B is their room for one more on the road trip?"

Buffy giggled at the potential flames Faith and Dean would create, "Since I decided I wanna ride with JJ there's room in the back of the Impala. If you make Dean blush. I'll give you my knife that you like."

After the call ended, John quirked an eyebrow at the petite blonde, "JJ? To make Dean blush?"

Buffy was unfazed, "Yep John's too tweedish. You're a John and a junior if I remember Sammy properly so now your JJ. As for Faith she's my sister, a huricane in leather that can make even Dean blush"

JJ shook his head, "You've been fighting for how long?"

Buffy shrugged, "Look don't go Macho on me. My life is what it is. I like you so don't wreck it blowing a gasket."

Jack thought through what she said and tried to translate. He used to think that Danny and Carter were the most confusing people he knew. Now he knew differently, he saw her open appraisal of him, "You like what you see?"

Buffy was so channelling her sister slayer, "Oh yeah. Still first I have to deal with the vamps and snap some sense into my family. Then . . . "

Jack didn't understand, he was a clone and felt like an old man despite his appearance. He had made a rule to stay away from girls, until Buffy. This blonde had waltzed into his life, no more like blitzed. She had made the vamp they needed to talk. JJ hadn't seen her fight but from the healthy level of fear he'd seen in the minion, he knew she had to be good.

They watched outside Jack figured when someone's six was covered in leather and belonged to a body like Buffy's, well he may have had more problems paying attention. It was then she crept up on her prey, he was in awe, one minute a blonde goddess, the next she was stalking her prey. That moment she was all predator and when she unleashed her power the almost felt sorry for the vamps. Then he remembered they were blood sucking monsters that preyed on the weak and all his pity was gone and watched in satisfaction as their asses got handed to them on a plate.

Buffy calmly walked out supporting her Dad. She was good; to the casual observer, it looked as if she has was hugging her Dad rather supporting him. Buffy turned to her Dad, shrugging sheepishly, "Sorry I didn't save you any. I was kinda mad."

Dean smirked, "Its alright Princess. We got Dad and the Colt It's as win."

Buffy pouted, "Not your Princess. Daddy's Princess."

JJ laughed at the cute pout, she had many facets and he was looking forward to discovering them, "I'd say all the Demons will remember that. Let's get Johnny back to the motel although how we'll explain everything I have no clue."

Buffy looked smug, "Got it covered. It's about time you guys meet my sister-slayer Faith she want's to join. She should be at the motel."
