I hear Buffy yelling my name trying to follow us, as I'm dropped in front of a small Manor seeing the girls rush in giggling.
Buffy finally catches up seeing me with my arms crossed looking at the house, she goes to storm up and I grab her shirt stopping her "You need to think before you act".
She grunts grabbing my shirt yanking me, I roll my eyes following her into the house "Call them off now" she orders looking at me.
"Yeah see that doesn't work with them, if they set their mind to something they don't stop till they make their point" I snark pushing her hand off me.
I sigh feeling the hallucinogenic powder starting to keep me calm, I grunt when I'm grabbed again and dragged off with Buffy screaming.
I frown seeing her stop looking confused at me "What the fuck" she yells reaching out like she's touching a wall.
"Buffy stay calm and think rationally" I yell trying to help her out.
Being dropped in a room I sigh sitting on a chair glaring at Miranda "Will she go to your vampires for help?"
I scoff shaking my head "unlikely, she will go to her friends and drag them into this".
"Then if she returns with them we will have them brought back here" she says motioning to a tray of tea.
I nod making my tea as the group joins us "She ran away" Cass says growling as she sits down twirling her sickle.
A few hours later
I see the girls perk up quickly leaving with the others following while Miranda sits drinking her tea "Two females and a male" she says before taking a sip of her tea.
Hearing screaming I sigh when Xander, Cordelia, and Willow are dropped in the room, they jump up looking for an exit seeing none the spot me and Miranda.
"Faith are you okay? Have you seen Mrs. Summers or Dawn?" Willow asks rushing to me.
I nod patting the chair by me "Welcome have a sit" I snark.
"Are you joking we need to get out and help Buffy" Xander says loudly.
"Buffy is in no danger, her family is perfectly safe" I say rolling my eyes.
When he goes into a rant about everything happening I sigh getting up and slap him "Shut up and sit down so you can get the information to understand" I growl slamming him into a chair.
He nods nervously holding his face as Cordelia sits crossing her arms "Now normally when a slayer turns 18 they are given a slayer test, I had mine early under old rules with the plan for me to die. My friends found out and took over they now run a test to remind the slayer they are human and can be killed, Buffy has gotten reckless and her ego is too big plus with her breaking into my house and threatening me they decided she needed the reminder".
Seeing they look a mix of shocked and mad while Cordelia looks bored I shake my head "Her family is safe, everything she sees and hears is from hallucinogenic powder one of them makes. All she has to do is reach this room and she passes she can't kill my friends they will fake it but she won't pass it because it will just raise her ego and confidence".
They nod relaxing while Cordelia huffs looking at Miranda "Why is the vampire freak dressed like that?"
"I am a Priestess in my village and the daughter of original darkness, keep quiet and listen to the true story of the creatures of darkness. Buffy and you all will be able to hear and even see everything I tell you like you're living it" she snaps at her.
"Great another drug trip" I snark relaxing in my chair.
Looking around I see everyone by me looking lost "Welcome to her trip down memory lane" I snark seeing Buffy come up looking lost at seeing humans and demons living together in areas happily working together.
"What's going on?" She asks confused.
"Now Buffy will be the first Slayer, Faith will be me" her voice echoes around us.
"I don't want to be blonde" I snark seeing Buffy's looks change.
I shiver feeling my body change into a giant spider creature, closing my eyes I focus on how she normally looks, changing myself into a human with black wings.
Walking up to the first I smile seeing her give a smile in return, she takes my hands pressing them to her chest over her heart putting her own on mine grunting.
I feel my heart beating rapidly as she leans in to kiss me when suddenly everything changes, I'm standing holding a child in my arms with the first by me happily looking at the child.
A scream catches our attention the first motion for me to stay, I watch her rush out before I slowly move following her out.
I see demons and vampires attacking the humans, the first jumps in trying to stop them.
Everything shifts again with the humans chasing me from my home while holding the first down, I cry holding onto our daughter reaching the edge of the village where they stop.
I see demons and vampires attacking the humans, the first jumps in trying to stop them.
Looking around I see everything is different I'm standing with a 7 year old girl by me with another child around 3 while holding an infant, looking at the first as she attacks killing the vampires and demons, who have gone into hiding trying to live what life they can now.
She spins looking at me shaking as she raises her weapon her eyes drop to our children and she points telling me to leave.
I pick up our children running away knowing the person I fell in love with and gave me our children is forever gone.
Everything changes again I stand with all my children around me the first charges in holding her throat, dropping to the ground in front of us gasping.
I run to her trying to help her as she gurgles pressing her free hand to her chest and then to mine before dying I cry holding onto her rocking.
My children come up lifting her and taking her out as I'm lifted to follow, I watch my kids place rocks around her and over her before blocking the entrance of the mound.
"My children had to grow up knowing their sire killed creatures like us but always told us to run being unable to kill us. We watched the changes till we had to hide in the end, my love returned to us one last time and died in my arms because an entire group was blamed for the crimes of some".
I gasp curling up still feeling the effects as the group looks upset while Willow cries, I shiver hearing her voice echo around us "Your watcher is wrong on history. You are willing to follow the same path my love followed to doom yourself to death that should never have been, to put your family and friends in dangerous situations for a lie, even leave them in a world where you are gone, my love was unwilling but had no choice".
I grunt flinching when Buffy is thrown into the room sliding across the floor as Miranda stalks in with the others following her "You dragged Faith, a mother into a potentially dangerous situation giving her no choice, your friends blindly followed you in because if they disagree with you, you guilt trip them" she snarls grabbing her and yanking her up slamming her against the wall.
"You believe yourself better than everyone else because you are the slayer, you're not the slayer anymore you're the girl who died fighting the master. Only alive because your friend saved you, Faith is the Slayer now with more knowledge than you have ever dreamed of knowing" she says throwing her again.
"She reminds you that you died and almost failed, you didn't because your friends believe in you and help you. That is why you attack her, I can take away your slayer powers forever" she yells slamming her against the floor grabbing her throat.
"You failed the test, you can earn the right to be known as a slayer again or give up the power forever" she snarls yanking her up holding her throat till she passes out, Cina grabs her holding her like a small child.
"She reminds you that you died and almost failed, you didn't because your friends believe in you and help you. That is why you attack her, I can take away your slayer powers forever" she yells slamming her against the floor grabbing her throat.

Notes
No, they won't stay long I just needed someone extremely powerful to jump in and kick Buffy's ass like should have happened in the show I love the show and Buffy but for the first 4 seasons she was a hypocrite and treated everyone like their mistakes were problems even in the last seasons she didn't change much I mean she acted like her breaking a curse on a vampire who was fucking insane meant she should be babied but if anyone else did it she would blame them
She let Spike a vampire who tried to rape her around her sister and defends him when her friends point out how stupid that is but if they did it they would be wrong
She's spoiled and Faith had a shit life she tried to do right and be part of the team but they brushed her off she was so desperate for someone to approve of her that the mayor was able to get his claws in her when they could have helped her if they had truly meant it when they reached out they made it clear she wasn't wanted around so I plan to have Willow be a good friend to Faith and have Buffy learn to be less of a stuck-up spoiled hypocrite
And finally Beth is base off Pam from true blood while Vicki is based of Victoria from twilight
