Disclaimer: Don't own Buffy or Charmed
A/N: This is set right before Oh My Goddess parts 1 and 2 of Charmed.
Buffy wakes up from the first deep sleep she has had since forever. She stretches before getting up and taking a shower. She feels a lot better than yesterday after getting some sleep and some answers. She skips down the steps and starts humming as she heads to the kitchen passing a few early morning people. They eyed her suspiciously, but shrugged it off. She was having her morning coffee when she heard the others waking up. She decided to wait for Faith so she would have at least one person on her side when she told everyone her news.
Once everyone got their breakfast and coffee they heard whispers of the other slayers talking about Buffy humming and skipping which made the Scooby gang wonder what was going on. They head into the sitting room where they see Buffy looking out the window. When she heard them enter the room she turned to them and gave them a smile, "Morning!" She says all chipper.
They slowly approach her, except for Faith, who figured out something had changed. She walked straight into the room and sat down next to Buffy. "What is going on B?"
"Everyone should sit down, I have some news." Everyone, including Angel and his gang sat down. Buffy looked around and noticed Kennedy was there next to Willow, she sighed before doing on, deciding that it wasn't worth it.
"So, after I saw that my wound healed rather quickly, I looked up a psychic and went to figure out what was going on."
"A psychic?!" Most of them shouted.
Giles, "Buffy, you do know that most psychics are fake?" Everyone nodded their heads at that.
"Well this one wasn't and I know that because I was also visited by a balance demon that works for the Powers That Be."
"How do you know that he works for the Powers?" Giles asked skeptically.
"I have met him before Giles. Angel knows him too. His name is Whistler." Buffy mentions rolling her eyes at Giles skepticism. The others look to Angel, who nods his head saying, "Yeah I know Whistler, he was the one who convinced me to fight for the good guys and with Buffy at first. But how do you know him?" Angel asks directed at Buffy.
"Oh, uh, during the Acathla situation, he is the one who told me what I would need to do to win the fight." Angel looked away at that. Giles finally agrees that he is a good guy. "So what did this Whistler and psychic have to say to you?"
"Well for one, I am immortal because of the slayer awakening spell." Buffy says while looking at Willow. Willow looks sad and guilty and Kennedy wraps her arms around her sort of glaring at Buffy as if to blame her for how Willow is feeling. Buffy just rolls her eyes at that, ignoring her.
The others were surprised at this news. Angel was sad that she was now forced to live this way, Giles was guilty about what had now happened to his slayer, Xander was shocked that this could happen, and Faith wasn't that surprised by that.
Buffy saw them look this way, and sighed, "Don't worry it doesn't last forever." This causes another round of surprise. Giles, "W-what do you mean? I thought immortality was always permanent except in extreme conditions."
Buffy shrugs at that bit of information, "Well, Whistler explained it as I am immortal only until this generation of slayers die out and then I am normal again." This confused most people, but Giles thought that he understood.
"So, what you are saying is that when all of the slayers here die you will go back to being human and normal, but until then you are immortal?" Buffy nods, "That's right."
Kennedy doesn't find this reassuring, "So we all have to die and then you become the only slayer again, how is that fair?" Buffy shakes her head, "No, someone else will be the only slayer, they said I get to live my life after this so even when I am human again, I don't have to go back to being a slayer." Kennedy still looks like she is glowering, but doesn't say anything.
Angel and his group didn't have much to say in this matter as they are not a part of the gang, but Angel remembered something, "Buffy didn't you say that you had more news?"
"Ah, yes." Buffy takes a breath, "Well I will be going off on my own somewhere," she was about to continue when the protests started. They were all the same; we need you to keep the slayers in check or to lead. Angel's gang was surprised at how selfish the group was being about this. They looked over at Buffy who just glanced back and forth at this conversation as if she has heard it a thousand times before.
Faith also looks on shocked at how they were reacting, although she shouldn't be so surprised. She looked over at Buffy, who was looking at her watch.
Faith shakes her head at the continued protests before whistling really loudly to stop them. "Man, you guys are really selfish, even after what you did yesterday, you still think she should follow you orders." This causes Angel and his gang to look on in confusion while the Scooby gang looks down and around in guilt.
Faith turns to Angel's group and sees their confusion, "Oh, right they didn't tell you did they? They kicked Buffy out because people were dying and they didn't like that." Angel and his crew looked shocked and annoyed at the other group.
Gunn, "Wait, you kicked her out of her house and now you expect to have her listen to you for anything?" Gunn shook his head. The Scooby Gang were still looking away from everyone.
Faith turned back to Buffy, "You were saying…"
"Right. Well it turns out I am adopted." This shocked the group even more. Buffy nodded at that and continued, "I am going on my own because I need some time and because I want to learn more about my family." Dawn looked offended. "What do you mean on your own, I am your sister, so technically that means I am adopted too."
A pop was heard. "Actually that is not true." Everyone turned and saw a guy in a fedora and suit. Angel stood up, "Whistler."
"Hey Angel, Buffy good to see you again." Buffy just smiles and nods back.
Dawn looks confused and upset at being ignored for a moment, "Hello, back to me, why is it not true?" Whistler looked at her, "It is not true because you weren't really born and since the Powers thought you should be with a slayer for protection that is what you had, but you were still made up of just a little of Buffy's blood, but most was Joyce and Hank. So technically, you are only slightly related to Buffy and her real parents, therefore you are not adopted like Buffy was."
Dawn was confused, but understood most of that. Whistler tipped his hat at everyone before disappearing again.
"That is all I wanted to tell you, I am leaving and I will be going alone, but I will be okay because technically I am immortal." Buffy said before standing up and leaving the room.
Everyone was still sitting down trying to process everything. Dawn was trying to process that she is only slightly related to Buffy, like a half-sister, Giles was feeling guilty about how he acted only a few days before, Willow was sad and guilty, but had the thought that if they really needed to they could find her with a spell. Xander was thinking that he was grateful he wouldn't be dealing with Buffy right after Anya, he thought she was being selfish again. Angel was proud of Buffy and was hoping that she could find what she was looking for, Kennedy was annoyed with Buffy as always, and Faith was proud and glad that Buffy was getting away from it all.
Meanwhile, Buffy was packing when Faith came into the room. "What aren't you telling everyone else B?"
Buffy looked over at Faith for a moment before thinking it over for a minute, "I am not telling anyone that my biological parents were a different kind of witches and that makes me a witch with powers as well." Faith stood in shock at that bit of information. "Wow." Buffy nodded as Faith sank onto the bed.
"That is also why I am going alone, I will get my powers soon and I won't always be able to control them and Whistler mentioned that Willow would react in a not so good way to me being a witch."
Faith understood that logic and promised not to tell anyone. Buffy smiled in thanks before finishing up her packing. She finished before heading downstairs where some people were waiting. She said her goodbyes to Giles, Xander, Willow, Angel, Dawn, and Faith. She waved goodbye to the rest of the slayers and to Angel's group.
Buffy goes to a bus station and decides that to avoid Willow hacking in and finding out where she went she would go to the place closest to San Francisco and walk or get a taxi to go the rest of the way.
How do you guys think that Buffy should meet the sisters? Do you think she should meet other witches first and then the Charmed ones or just get a job at P3 and then the sisters learn that she is a witch? Let me know what you think by pressing the review button. :)
