one week later...
Boston, mass.
Faith pov.
The past week stayin in pv with mags was great. I got a chance to meet some interesting people. Like Bianca's mom, Erica Kane, talk about diva. Me and mags got caught up with everythin that's been happenin in each others lives, I had fun. Things were good til two days ago. Maggie got the call from Boston sayin our dad's trial was soon. I know that's good right? no. cus its only been a week and I'm not really ready to face him yet. But I need to deal with what's been goin on. Not to say its no big deal cos it was. It is. But I need some kinda closure with my dad before I'll be able to move on and trust other people. Why? Don't know. Not even sure if it makes since. Me and my sisters and brothers are all sitting in the court room. Its amazing that we all have the same dad considerin how we look nothin alike. I guess its cos they got lucky. They don't look like him and they weren't stuck with him like I was. I used to be scared to tell anybody my dad beat the shit outta me. But now I feel like the only thing I can do. The only thing I want to do. The judge is callin our names for us to stand to see who is present. I sad to hear Frankie died though.
"when I call your name please stand; Mary Margret Stone, Faith Stephanie Lehane, Kennedy Evelyn Davis, Charles Anthony Gunn, Lucas Jeremiah Andrew Lehane, Winifred hope Daniels, Mary Francis Stone, and Christian Travis smith." we all stand.
"your honor, Mary Francis Stone is deceased and we don't know a Christian smith." Maggie says speaking up. I look to see anybody unfamiliar and I see a brunette kid who looks like dad.
"ms. Stone I am sorry to hear about your sister, as for mr. Smith he's listed as your fathers youngest son. Please step forward mr. Smith." the boy steps forward and we all gasp at how much he looks like dad. No mistakin that's his son. "young man have you ever met any of the people in this court room.?" the judge asks him.
"no sir." he says eyes cast down like he's scared to look up.
"how old are you?" he asks Christian
"16. I'll be 17 in two weeks sir." he says. Well he got manners I'll give him that much. Wait 17 in two weeks. My birthday is in two weeks too.
"what day?" I ask.
"19th. August 19th." he says.
"cool we have the same birthday...wait your mom is tiffany aint she?" explains a lot. My dad was cheatin on my mom with some lady named tiffany round the time she got preg with me.
"yeah. Oh! Your Diane's daughter. Faith right?" I nod.
"yeah. Nice ta meet ya. Dad's told me a lot about ya." he smiles and nods at me.
"well lovely. Now are you all ready to testify so you can all move on with your lives?" we all nod.
Two weeks later in...
Sunnydale, ca.
Buffy pov.
This Faith chick seems to be popular around here. Everybody knows her and from what I've heard everybody likes her. Not one bad thing said about her. I saw a picture of her that Cordelia showed me and I must say she's hot as fuck. From the way Cordy and spike talk about her I'd say she was either obsessed or in love. Hell or both. But when you listen to what she says and how she says it you hear the underlying feelings of being proud of her and her accomplishments. I think she has a crush on willow too. Which in that case she'd better keep her hands and eyes away from my sister. Same with spike and Xander.
"hey Buffy." spike says coming over to sit beside me.
"hey." I say sorta spaced. For some reason I keep thinking about Faith. I feel like I know her from how much they've told me about her.
"you ok?" he's a sweet kid really. He puts on this tough boy act but he's like a big teddy bear. Some girl, harmony I think was her name, calls him blondie bear and he hates it. Almost as much as he hates someone bothering his little brother. He's very protective. I don't blame him. I'm the same way with my brother and sisters even though they don't really need it.
"yeah I'm fine. Where's Cordy?" I ask him. We've formed a little group. Its like a scooby gang of sorts. They help me with patrol and research. Its pretty cool.
"don't know. Where's your brother and sisters?" he asks.
"on the way. Look spike if you like Xander cool just don't hurt him ok?" he looks a little shocked before he gets a soft smile on his face.
"wouldn't dream of it slayer." he says to me. I'm about to say something else when the rest of the group walk in chatting about who knows what followed by some tall brunette guy.
"Buffy this is angel, angel Buffy." Cordelia says.
"the vampire with a soul?" I ask. Giles and Cordy told me about him. He seems pretty cool. He used to work for the council but now he like a free lance demon hunting demon dude. Yeah I know but I can't think of a better name for him.
"yeah." she says. Angel and I exchange pleasantries. He's kinda hot if your into the whole undead thing.
"ohmygoodness spike!" Cordy suddenly exclaims. "somebody bought the house across the street from mine." she says. House? Doesn't she mean mansion?
"really have you seen them?" spike asks. I swear those two live off of gossip.
"no just the movers moving stuff in." she says to him.
"hm. Well looks like soon we're gonna have to find out." he says and we go on talking about random topics until the bell rings.
Pine valley, pa.
Maggie pov.
Faith is going to flip when she sees where we're moving too. I decided to talk to Giles and have him pull a few strings so I got custody of the younger kids. Well some of them. Kennedy didn't want to move. I don't blame her. We barely know her and she and Faith can't be around each other too long. Poor Christian though. I asked his mom for the possibility of getting custody and she couldn't sign the papers fast enough. I mean him and Faith are like best friends with a lot in common. First off they both are practically spitting images of our dad, secondly they have moms who don't care about them. Now before you say anything all of us have had a dna test so yeah we are all related. Dad just couldn't keep it in his pants. But it ok because they are good kids. Yesterday I told Faith the place we were moving to was like a mansion because the council thinks she's a potential slayer. She said cool but she hoped she wasn't. I forgot her last girlfriend was a slayer. Since she died she's been kinda shaky with the whole slayer subject. You may think that I'll have a hard time taking care of all of them but I won't. They're good kids. I mean no we're not always going to see eye to eye and they will hate me at times but they're supposed too. I look up and see my beautiful girlfriend.
"are you sure you want to move with us Bianca. You don't have too." I say to her as we take our things down to the Kane limo.
"Maggie for the last time I'm sure. I know its along way away and its going to be a big responsibility and I know my mom threatened to have baboons beat you until you turn purple if you don't take care of me but I am sure. Stop worrying." she says.
"ok. But i-"
"Maggie! Stop. I'm sure. I love you and we are going to be fine. Now for the last time. Stop worrying." she says to me. She must be slightly or highly agitated because I've asked her about a thousand times.
"ok." I say. She pulls me to her kissing me softly.
"gross! Can you two keep your lips to yourselves for about five minutes." Faith says.
"what's wrong Faith? Mad because you don't have anybody to smooch on." I ask teasingly. She looks at me like I've lost it.
"uh no I'm mad because Every time I see my big sister she has her lips attached to her girlfriend just like Every time I saw Fred yesterday she had her lips attached to her boyfriend. All I got to say is my eye sight is no longer as good as it used to be." she says in a serious tone. She is such a dork.
"you are such a dork." I say shaking my head.
"actually I agree with the runt. You never want to see your sister making out with anybody. Its just weird." Kendall says scaring the shit out of me. When did she get her?
"shit Kendall!" Bianca says with her hand on her chest.
"Bianca language! Theres a child present." she says and I start looking for this child she's talking about and I can't find it.
"she means me you it." Faith says climbing into the limo.
"oh" I say getting in after her leaving Kendall and binks to say good bye and have a sister moment.
"so mags, you never said where we're moving too. And are you sure everybody will be at the airport on time?" she's excited. I can tell and it makes her look like a little kid.
"i'm sure they'll be there. And we're moving to sunnydale." I tell her. I can't help but smile at the way her face lights up.
"fuckin right!" she exclaims pumping her fist in the air. We've tried to get her to curb the language a little.
"Faith!" four people yell at once. Me, Kendall, binks, and the limo driver all laugh when she smiles sheepishly. Oh yeah this is going to be fun.
