D/C: Don't own.
Full Circle

"What, one bag is all you packed for me. We better not be gone long then." Faye complained as took her bag from Spike.
"It'll be enough, trust me." Spike shrugged as he began to lead the way to the hanger, not that Faye needed any help locating it.
"Where you kids running off too?" Jet questioned as he walked into the room.
"It's a surprise." Faye answered sarcastically.
Spike smirked, a cigarette dangling from his lips.
"Well I am glad; Faye needed an intervention. Good for you, Spike and good for you too, Faye." Ari cheered as she appeared behind Jet.
Faye shot the woman a glare and Spike let out a sigh.
"Ari." Jet said, slightly embarrassed.
As Spike and Faye restarted their way towards the hangar, Faye's communicator buzzed.
A lump in Spike's throat appeared while Faye's heart skipped a beat. The room became intense as an eerie feeling devoured the room.
"Don't answer." Spike commanded as he tried to snatch the communicator away but it was to late.
"Hello." Faye answered. No one appeared on the screen. It remained dark.
"Hello?" Faye repeated.
"Hang up, Faye." Spike growled.
"Ms. Valentine, nice to finally get a hold of you." A smooth voice spoke but no face appeared.
"Where's Roger?" Faye shouted, squeezing the communicator tight.
"He's alive, for now. Stop by and maybe we can work something out."
"Just tell me where to meet you."
And then the voice spoke in Italian and hung up.
"Did you understand that?" Ari questioned as she peeked over Jet's shoulder.
"Yeah." Faye spoke, motionless.
"You can't go. It's a trap." Spike took a step towards Faye.
"Let's leave them alone." Jet whispered to Ari as they left the room.
"I have too go."
"He's probably already dead." Spike's voice was calm and deep.
"It's a chance I am willing to take." Faye began to walk past Spike and towards the hangar.
Spike reached out a grabbed her roughly, making her come to a stop in front of him. He didn't say a word, he didn't need too because Faye knew exactly what he was saying, begging.
"I have too. Throw a fit if you like but I am going and I expect you to let me go. I did it for you." Faye threw in his face.
"Fine. Get yourself killed. I don't care."
Spike walked past Faye, harshly shouldering her as he did so.
"You know you don't mean that." Faye whispered right before he was out of earshot. Spike ignored her.
--
Faye landed her aircraft a block away from her destination.
"I can do this." She gulped as she walked the short distance. It was a small warehouse on the out skirt of the city. Not a lot of people nearby and mostly empty and shitty apartments surrounded the warehouse. A single, fancy black car was parked in front and she had a good idea who it belonged to.
"Showtime." She grabbed her glock and kicked in the door. She was feeling brave and slightly numb, partly due to adrenaline but mostly because of the drug she shot up.
Faye glanced around the warehouse, a blonde haired man slowly approached her.
"Nice to see you, Ms. Valentine." He spoke. Faye didn't recognize the man but it didn't matter. She never really did pay attention the Roger's clientele. In fact she didn't have anything to do with his dealings besides being there.
"Where's Roger."
"Alive, for now." He smirked.
And as of on que a man pushed a different bloodied Roger into the light. Roger collapsed on the floor, coughing up mounts of blood.
"Roger." Faye's voice was soft as she rushed to his side.
"Faye, get out of here." He choked out.
"Roger." Faye whispered again as she gently touched his face. It was swollen and dirty.
"Touching." The blonde man mocked.
Faye ignored him as she helped Roger to his feet. That when she noticed the gaping whole in his stomach, as if someone had been in the process of ripping out his insides.
"What do you want me to do?" Faye asked the blonde man, getting ready to make a bargain with him for their freedom.
"What do I want them to do? Did you hear that Milo." The blonde man sneered.
"Sure did, boss." The other man, mocked as well.
Faye knitted her brows in confusion.
The blonde man raised his gun at the couple.
"But you said." Faye started but realized she had nothing to finish it.
"Leave her out of this, she had nothing to do." Roger's voice came out in heaves.
"Should have though of that before you tried to scam us." Milo chirped in as he eyed Faye.
"Play times over, Roger." The boss fired a shot that went straight through Roger's forehead.
Faye's eye went wide as blood spluttered onto her face.
"But just beginning for you, Faye." Milo took a step up a grabbed her from behind.
"Bring her back to the headquarters when you're done." This boss smirked as he turned around and headed out the back.
Faye felt Milo's lips smash against her neck as he arms pinned her against him.
--
"Thanks for the backup there, Jet. You where extremely helpful as you fled the room." Spike spoke, his words dripping with sarcasm.
"Hey I didn't butt into your business. Well not too much."
"Faye's different. She's too emotional. She doesn't stay focused."
"If you're worried, I bet Ed could track her ship down." Ari added.
--
Milo spun Faye around as he pinned her to the metal wall. Faye starred straight ahead, at Roger's motionless body, as Milo kissed her neck, making his way down her collarbone as he tugged at her shorts. She didn't feel anything. And then as if a bomb went off, she began her struggle. Shoving him hard, he went flying back, mostly because he hadn't been prepared for it. Milo quickly recovered, gun in hand as he approached Faye but Faye was ready for him this time. Without hesitation she sent a shot into his shoulder, knocking the gun out of his hand but it did little to slow his descent towards her. Faye pulled the trigger again but it jammed. Cursing, she chunked the gun at Milo while preparing for hand to hand combat with the man.
Faye easily dodged the first punch and returned the favor to him. He dodged it as well. Milo laughed momentarily as he managed to knock Faye to the ground. Faye rubbed lightly at the throbbing pain but noticing Milo gloating, Faye took this moment to wrestle him to the ground. The rolled around a bit a Faye came on top. She bashed his head to the ground and she watched his eyes become unfocused.
"Time to escape" Faye heaved, She snatched the keys from Milo just incase he woke up anytime soon.
Faye hauled ass to her aircraft and noticed it was gone.
"Damn it."
An idea clicked in her hand as Milo's keys jingled in her hands. Faye quickly ran back and jumped in his car, just in time to see Milo running out, on the phone with his boss most likely.
--
"Ed, it's not here." Spike huffed through the communicator.
"Ed says it should be there." Jet replied.
Just then a black car going extremely fast caught Spike's attention but that wasn't the main reason it caught his eye, it was the five cars behind it tipped him off.
"I found her." Spike clicked off the screen, his focus now on the cars.
He smoothly came up behind the cars and shot at the car closest to Faye's car. He ended up hitting the second car.
"Damn it." Spike mutters as bullets go flying his way.
--
Faye watches as one of the cars blows up and she catches Spike in the mirror. Faye pushes harder on the gas, not exactly sure where she is going.
--
"Is she crazy!" Spike screams as he watches her go up the mountain. The curves dangerous at the speed she was going.
And he watched in horror as his worst fear came true. He felt helpless as he watched one of Faye's tires gets shot out. She swerves and flies over the edge. Her descent into the water below is swift as Spike kicks it into over drive.
Faye's car is already underwater as Spike lands his craft. He plunges into the water and immediately spots her car.
Faye struggles as she tries to get her seatbelt off but it's jammed. The cars already filled with water and she's feeling light headed but her mind is screaming, "I don't want to die. I don't want to die."
The seat belt finally comes up and Faye realizes Spike is next to her, trying to break the glass, open the door, anything.
Faye tries to roll down the window but its electric and not responding.
'I'm going to die.' Faye thought as she fights back the urge to take in a deep breath.
Spike watches as Faye's face changes. Her once determines face is now soft and sad.
Spike shakes his head furiously; telling her no, not to give up.
She lets out a meek smile.
'At least I'm not alone.'
Spike punches at the window to the best of his might.
He watches as she goes limp. She no longer moves. Her eyes are still wide open but no life behind them.
Spike stays a few more seconds before he feels the need to go up for air. He reaches the surface as he chokes back sob. He splashed the water angrily.
--
"Looks like I couldn't save you after all." Spike stares down at Faye's tomb. He sat a rose down neatly on it before leaving.
--
The End.
She was going to die one way or another…either overdose or this. I thought this might be a little better although overdose is more with the story. So I don't know.
