Conversations

SLAYER CENTRAL

Library:

"How is she?"

"Buffy or Faith?" asks Dawn

" Faith's in Seattle and Buffy's talking to my girlfriend." Ken added instantly. Giles is cleaning his glasses again. Ken could see that he is upset because Buffy thinks he betrayed her again..

"Giles, it's not your fault, Buffy can just be an ass sometimes, especially when Faith is involve."

" I know that, but we shouldn't have kept it from her too long. She has the right to know."

" She does huh? And what?" Dawn can't help it, ever since the First the sisters drifted apart.

" you told her where Faith is. All these time you never told anyone because she doesn't want to be found. Why did you tell Buffy?" Giles asked Dawn even though he already knew the answer.

"Because I think they both have to settle their differences. Buffy can see for herself how Faith is doing, you know being good and all. So she'll realize what kind of an ass she is to Faith."

"That and if all goes well, they're just gonna kiss and make up. They've been dancing that same old song ever since I've met them so I guess it's time."

Willow's room:

" Buffy, maybe they have a good reason for not telling us. Maybe they think you'll just beat her to death again." The witch has been trying to comfort her crying best friend for quite some time now. "we didn't tell them we've been trying to find her either and besides you and Faith only means major slayer riot and I'm not telling that she's gonna go Psycho Faith again because we've seen her in Angel's funeral and she's changed, I sensed that. But why are we mad at them again? Oh, uh.. I know, coz we've been trying to locate her but we kept on failing. You I mean we just wanted to know how she's doing and if she's ok, but they didn't know that we have good intentions so I guess they just want to protect her. But now you know where she is so do you want to go see her?" when Buffy didn't even look up. "uh, ok. Shutting up now."

Buffy couldn't help but let her tears fall. Why? She's so confuse to even bother. Things are not as good as before then add Faith in the mix; things are really getting more complicated by the minute. Everything with Faith is complicated as it is already.

" What happened to me Will? Why am I making it so hard for everyone? I just wanted to be a good slayer and I ended up being a crappy best friend not to mention I suck at being a sister and a daughter. I just wanted to be normal again. " that's when she felt something. A sharp pain in her stomach as if a knife just cut through it. It's where she gutted Faith. She flinched because she could feel the raw and throbbing pain as if it's really happening to her.

Seeing this, Willow almost jump to her bed "Buffy, are you ok?"

"it's Faith, I think she's hurt. We need to tell them."

"Are you sure you're ok?"

"I am. Let's go." They both left the room in silence..

FAITH'S MANSION

When they got back to the mansion, they were greeted by a man in a black suit. Wesley's in the main hall all tied up and being questioned.

"Well, well, well. Nice to see you again princess" the man said walking towards them. Faith looks at Tomy who already lifted his protective Barrier.

"Is this the witch who saw it all?"

Faith smirked " see for yourself."

When the man tried to get hold of Tomy, he was thrown to the wall by the kid's Barrier and landed ten feet off . "Nice. I'm impressed, but your watchers dying if you'll not hand him over princess."

"tsk, first, I'm not a princess. Not even close and second.." he gave him an upper cut and broke his jaw. She grabbed him by the collar but before his bodyguards started to move he smiled and said, " I got this bunnies." He looks at Faith " Killing humans now, slayer?" Faith gives him a death glare "wouldn't even flinch on it."

"You had your chances. You Can't. You won't." it's true, Faith have all the Chances in the world to kill this monster of a man, but she couldn't because he is still a human after all. He's only power are his assets and his money. " but I can." And he gutted her with his knife in the scar where the wounds never heal. He knows her weakness. "I'll be back for the witch. But for now it's a draw."

"time to roll bunnies!" with that, they left the mansion.

Wesley's comforting the crying little man even though his wounds won't let him.

"Hey, uh.. lil kid, help here?" Faith's trying not to pass out as Tomy rushes to heal her, the wound seemed to stop bleeding but it didn't healed fully.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry." Tomy's sobbing "this is all my fault…"

"Never is, never was and never will be. Now stop being a baby and help me stand up." She knows him all too well by now. The kid does not want to be treated as if he's just a little boy even though he is. Faith knew that, after five years of being with Tomy, she realized how similar they are in ways more than one. Besides Angel, Tomy's the only one who could make her talk her heart out. They've been through a lot and he's not just a brother or a son to her, he's a part of her and the reason for what she has become.

They both headed to Wesley and the kid healed him. Yes, Tomy is a witch not by choice but by blood, he's got powers normal witches do not have. He can heal and do things with not even lifting a hand.

"You ok?"she asked, when he nodded. "aight, get your things. We're having an early vacation to Slayerdom."

"should I call the pilot and ready the jet?" Wes asks

" Nah, Tomy can spare us the jet lags." She winks ant the boy

Tomy's eye widened in excitement not only he can visit the slayer central but for the first time in his entire life he will be seeing Dawn and the scoobies, of which he only heard from the stories when Faith and Wes tell him. He's also excited to orb their way there! COOLEST thing ever he thought.

"Let's get you set then." Wes looks at him and they both headed to his room.

Faith hesitated for a moment and picked up her phone. "hey, X-man. Yeah it's me. Give them the heads up, we're on our way.. Don't have time, gotta go. Later." She knows not to use any devices longer than a minute or Ethos will be able to trace them.

Library:

"Time for what?" Xander entered with a curious look on his face.

"How's the slayers?" Giles asked him.

"5 x 5." The tree looked at him with eyes wide.

"oh, what?"Gotcha! he thought to himself.

"you think you're the only ones in contact with faith huh? Words travel fast guys. Buffster's pissed and you guys think it's time to meet and greet? Well, I'm the bearer of good news… and bad.. Faith just called and told me they're coming."

"Wait! You get to talk to her?! Since when?!" Ken asks

"Control guy here, duh?" Xander makes face "Since five minutes ago. She said they're on their way."

"They, as in Tomy and her?" Dawn asked in excitement.

"What's the Bad news?" Giles' the only one who seem to ne listening. Does he always?

"Didn't tell, but she's pissed so I take it as bad."
