- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -The stillness in the caused goose bumps to rise on the blonde slayer's shoulders and arms even though she had a coat on. It was the absolute quiet of the air around her. No crickets chirping, no sounds of cars driving by, nothing. Just absolute silence. It was unnerving and if she had been anyone else she probably would have left by now however she was the slayer and if she couldn’t do something, there was no way in hell she was having any of the younger girls do it. Plus she had already been down there once with Willow and Xander so at least she knew what was awaiting her.
That was actually part of the problem. She knew what awaited her down there. Sure she had some of the watchers come and take care of the bodies that they had found and the headstones in order to bring them to Rome so she didn’t have to worry about that, but the town itself was almost completely saved. Sure it looked like it had been left worse for the wear however the town itself was protected…and something was still down there. She had learned of the vampires down there the last time when she, Willow and Xander had been here and had made herself a promise to come back and deal with them but with everything with Glory and then dealing with the repercussions of that she hadn’t had the chance.
Well, now was as good of time as any…especially by herself. Yeah, she knew once everyone realized she had left without telling them that they would be pissed off but oh well. She needed a break for a little bit. Angel was getting on her nerves because he was acting all high and mighty. She briefly wondered if someone had cast a spell on him and made a mental note to talk to Willow about it when she got back. Spike was being distant which granted didn’t surprise her since she and Angel were back to being somewhat of a couple though it hadn’t been officially set in stone or anything. Willow was dating someone that she and Xander hadn’t met, Satsu was dating someone that she hadn’t met, Sarah was dating Sam Winchester, Dean was dating his ex girlfriend and Elena was trying desperately to get Stefan to agree to another meeting, this one without egos she hoped. So really this was the best time. Plus again, she really just needed a break.
Her SUV was parked on the side of the crater and it was going to stay there. She had learned her lesson the last time and was completely prepared, along with stakes, crossbows, holy water, and of course her trusty scythe that she kept around in her car usually unless someone needed it. She had figured it would be a good idea to bring it with her today since for all she knew there were a couple Turok Han down there and she wanted to be prepared.
Pulling out the rope she heard a noise coming toward her and stopped what she was doing, sliding the scythe back in the trunk, not wanting anyone to see it in case it was a cop asking what the hell she was doing. With her luck, god only knows.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - Heh. If B thought she was being sneaky, she had another thing coming. Faith had watched her silently slip out of the boarding house and drive off into the darkness. She had pretended to be leaving for patrol, but she'd also taken one of the SUV's in the driveway. At this point she wasn't even all that sure who it belonged to. There were a lot of people in that damn house and a lot of vehicles. All she knew - it wasn't hers. But, she didn't care.
Making sure to keep her distance, she followed B all the way across the country. Literally - across the entire country. By the time she got halfway, Faith had already guessed where they were going. Sunnydale, of course. That's the only thing she could think of anyways. Either that or Los Angeles, though she doubted Buff would have anything to do in the city of angels.
The trip took forever. Plus, she constantly had to keep herself at a low speed to avoid being detected by the blonde. Faith didn't do slow. She did fast, hard, and right now. It was definitely a test of her patience.
Finally, the two arrived. Faith let the other Slayer get out of her vehicle before she actually pulled up. Looking at Buffy through the windshield she couldn't help but smirk. Throwing open the door, she hopped out and put one hand on her hip. In her boot remained her knife, in the waistband of her jeans, her stake. She smirked. "Gotta tell ya B, if this is your idea of a vacation...we got a problem." Kicking up some dust beneath her boots, she slowly edged her way to look down into the crater.
Peering over into the bottom, she shook her head before turning back to Buffy. "What's with the quick getaway, anyways? Didn't want the beau tagging along?" [/color] she said with a quirked eyebrow, referring of course to Angel. Clearly - Buffy had wanted to do whatever it was she was doing alone. Faith wasn't gonna let that happen, no way. They were sisters. Plus, Faith had been there for the final showdown and hadn't been back since - seemed like it'd be interesting. On top of everything though? She was always down for an adventure. She just hoped this adventure wouldn't end up with her dying. Oh, wait - she couldn't die. Even more fun.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -The blonde straightened up and shut the trunk as quietly as possible. She figured if worst came to worse she'd puncture a hole in her tire without the cop seeing to make it look like she had a flat. She leaned casually against the car, trying to not let her black coat or new distressed jeans get dirty but eh, whatever. Her boots made her look about 5 inches taller but she liked it that way. She was crazy short and she tended to get annoyed by it since she had a personality that was larger than life and yet her body was so tiny it was ridiculous.
She pulled her hat down a little further, wishing she could have found her black one but she had run out of time and didn't want anyone following her out. Unfortunately once she saw the owner of the SUV she nixed that statement since someone did follow her. She rolled her eyes at her sister slayer and laughed, though clearly it was not a humorous laugh. "Nah, was actually my idea of quiet 'me' time but since that's not going to happen..." She stated though trailed off at the end with a shrug.
She shook her head before opening her trunk again, taking out the things she had been digging for originally. "If you're here you might as well make yourself useful" She told her before handing her a backpack with a couple more weapons and of course a flashlight. She took the other bag out and slid it over her back, leaving her scythe near her foot and pulling out the insane amount of rope. "As for going by myself...didn't want anyone coming. I've been down there once before and it's creepy. Willow didn't handle it well and neither did Xander." She told her, avoiding the topic of Angel.
She wasn’t sure why she felt the way she did about Angel lately. She loved the man more than her very life but she had gotten increasingly annoyed with him the past several times she had seen him. This of course could be because he was being a know it all and that was really unlike him. She had actually questioned it very briefly if he had lost his soul however Angelus wasn’t the know it all that Angel was being. Sure he was a know it all but Angel wasn’t being overly cocky about it like Angelus would have been.
Shaking her head she motioned back to the crater. “The town wasn’t as destroyed as it looks. Once you get down there a lot of structures are still standing. I think the magic that destroyed it actually kept it contained. There’s been reports of stuff coming out of it from the neighboring towns and the last time I was down there I saw several vampires. No Turok Han’s back then but then again I didn’t look that hard either.” She informed her while tying the rope around the suv. She had specifically brought the heaviest SUV that they had and put bricks in the trunk and back so that it would work as she lowered herself and now Faith down and back up the crater.
“You coming or what?” She asked after throwing the rope through the crater and making her way over the side.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - The brunette Slayer quirked a brow. "Alone time in a gigantic, creepy lookin' crater? Sounds like fun" Faith said with a smirk. While it probably should have been a sarcastic comment - it wasn't. She truly meant it. She was sort of twisted like that and spending the night in the old Sunnydale didn't sound like such a horrible night. It definitely beat hanging out with the Potentials back at the house and hearing all about that Harry Styles kid. She knew way more about Boy Bands than she'd ever wanted to...
Reaching out to grab the backpack, she slung it over her shoulder and then bent down to retrieve her knife. She slid the knife into the side holster of the sack and then did the same with her stake on the opposite side. She then watched with slight amusement as the Blonde pulled out rope that seemed to go for an eternity. It was like a clown pulling scarves out of his mouth - absolutely ridiculous, and seemed to go on forever. She probably could have helped but by the time she stopped enjoying the scene, Buffy was finished. "Almost done there, bobbo?" [/color] she asked, referring to Bobbo the Clown. Another smirk crossed her features. Hey, when wasn't she smirking? Never. Faith shrugged and then leaned down to tighten the laces on her boots. "Creepy's right up my avenue"[/color] she told her with a grin, standing back up straight and walking back over to the edge of the crater. She looked down and then back up to Buffy, smiling like a crazy person. She wasn't afraid of heights like a normal person. Plus, she'd always loved a good thrill. "Trust me, I'm coming"[/color] she said, grabbing the other side of the rope. Buffy had one side, she had the other, tied in a gigantic loop several times around Buffy's car. Instead of simply holding on to it, she quickly tied her end into a loop around her waist. It kind of hurt her sides but eh, it'd be quicker. Pulling it as tight as she could muster, she grinned to the blonde before lowering herself down the side. With one last nod to her Sister Slayer she started to catapult herself down the side. Several leaps at a time, she'd slide down the side and then land with feet planted against the rock. It didn't take too long before they'd reached the ground. As they did, she found that they were directly next to where the old high school had once been. It was mostly crumbled but most of the buildings around it were in tact. Untying the rope from her waist, she looked around while she waited for Buffy to finish next to her. "You were right, B. Kinda creepy down here. Where to?"[/color] she asked, having no clue where the hell they were going. There was a bad...vibe in the town. Most of the buildings were there but it was a complete ghost town, random rubble throughout the streets. Totally creepy. Yet, she was grinning like a psycho.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -She chuckled at Faith's offhanded comment. "Yeah well it's better than sitting in a house full of hormonal teenagers who are screaming about who is the better actor, singer, whatever it is that they are arguing about this week. I promise you I was this close.." She stated, holding up her middle finger and her index about an inch apart to show how close she really was. "To taking them downstairs and telling them to work it out on the sparring mat...however I figured that it was probably not the best idea I ever had and I just left the room." She told her with another laugh.
Shooting the brunette a glare she sneered at her playfully. “Trust me when I say this crater is a lot deeper than it looks. And it’s not fun dropping down to the bottom with another person holding on to you. I had a bruise for about 2 days and you know how bad it had to be if I had a bruise that long. So shut your trap.” She told her with a roll of her eyes before she finally got to the end of the rope. Sure she knew it was quite excessive but she had learned her lesson the hard way and really didn’t look to repeat it. Not that Faith would have to hold on to her since obviously she could take care of herself as well as she could but that was not the point. She just didn’t want a repeat.
“You always have had a weird sense of adventure.” She muttered under her breath when Faith mentioned that creepy was right up her alley. She could still remember the numerous times that Buffy had tried to be cautious about something and Faith had jumped head first into things. Granted there were about equal times when it got them into trouble or it ended up being the right thing to do…but still…definitely not the point. She knew that Faith was looking forward to this for more than one reason and to be honest Buffy was too. The last time she had been down there it had been with Willow and Xander and she was more worried about getting them out of there safely rather than looking around. Now at least she wouldn’t have to worry since Faith could take care of herself.
She had missed spending time with her sister slayer because she was the one person with the exception of Angel and Spike, that she didn’t have to constantly worry about. It was refreshing.
She rolled her eyes at Faith's dramatics as she repelled down the damn crater. She muttered about crazy ass people under her breath as she made her way a little slower down. She didn't like heights...never had. If there was one thing that freaked her out it was heights. She was almost grateful she wasn't any taller. Once at the bottom she pushed the ropes into a small crevice so that they were still against the crater wall but not easily distinguishable so nothing would see them that wasn't actually looking for them. "Last time I found a nest around the school. Best place as any to start." She stated, making her way towards what she assumed was near the school.
This would be interesting.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - Faith nodded her head as well. "Shit, I know. Bein' in that house makes me wanna scratch my eyes out...Speaking of, actually" she said as they continued to vault down the side of the crater. She was moving quickly, fearlessly. Heights hadn't ever been all that scary to her like it affected some other people. Just another day on the job, and she was chatting normally just as if it was. "Been thinkin' about gettin' my own place, since ya got everything under control there. Honestly don't know how much I can take it, y'know?" [/color] she asked, though it was more rhetorical than deserving of an actual response. But it was honest and she hoped the blonde wouldn't be upset by it. She'd still of course be there to train with the girls everyday and go on patrols, help out as much as she does now. However she couldn't take actually living with those girls much longer and she knew it. It was driving her insane. Laughing at the blonde's feisty attitude that night, Faith actually did shut her trap as they moved. As they catapulted down she wondered if she was simply fearless because she knew she couldn't die. Then, that made a part of her wanna cut the rope and fall to the bottom simply for the entertainment. Buffy would probably get all pissy though, despite how entertaining it would be. Little Mrs Fun Police.."I think that's you B, with the weird sense of adventure. I've seen you shoe shopping before...now that? That shit is weird."[/color] A shake of her head and she couldn't help but chuckle. The two of them were complete opposites. Always had been, always would be. She was okay with that, though. They helped to balance each other out for the most part. Faith was irrational and quick to act, Buffy was the thinker. Faith jumped. Buffy checked things out first. It worked. Faith let out a loud exhale. "School. My favorite."[/color] Sarcasm at it's best. She'd never actually finished high school - and never probably would. She knew she wasn't destined to get an education and have a job. It wasn't her. Hell even before she'd found out she was a Slayer she'd known it wasn't her. Now - she knew why. She was a Slayer and she loved what she fucking did, no matter how painful, gross, and lonely. She fucking loved it. Which is why as they walked through the super creepy time, Faith couldn't keep the smile off her face. No matter how hard she tried. "Remember a few months back when we found that nest in the the cemetery and I lit all of their asses on fire? Now that was fun"[/color] she said with a quirk of her eyebrow for emphasis. She'd only been reminded of the scenario because Buffy had spoken about another nest. Still, she actually quite enjoyed spending time with the blonde. They'd grown a lot closer since Sunnydale and even closer in the last couple of months.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -She couldn't help but laugh at Faith's comment about wanting to scratch her eyes out. "Why do you think I have my own apartment?" She asked though bit her tongue as soon as she had asked it. Faith was there when she had gotten the apartment for them to hide in during the whole brief Angelus stint. It still gave her the goose bumps to think about it because it hadn't been nearly as horrible as she had always envisioned. She had never spoken to anyone about it but there was a part of her that wanted to...not that she would because really who would understand? No one.
“I find myself staying at the apartment more often than the boarding house so I don’t blame you. Actually I was meaning to talk to you about that. The apartment complex that I live in is actually for sale…like the whole complex. I was thinking of speaking with Giles and asking his opinion on if we should buy it. We could rent one or two of the buildings to regular tenants but then the rest of the buildings could be for our people. I mean with how many people we’ve met it would be nice if we had some place to put them all. Even people like Dean, Sam, and some others. At least this way we’d all have our own spaces while at the same time still being near one another should something happen.” She told her, taking a breath before continuing.
“We’d keep the boarding house of course and let the new girls stay there with a couple other people to make sure they were safe but this way Xander, Willow, Oz, you, me, Angel, and anyone else who wanted one could have their own apartments. I don’t know, I just thought it would be a good idea, plus a lot more hiding spots should something ever go wrong.” She stated, not wanting to say exactly what she was speaking about but Faith would easily know by the tone of her voice.
"Okay, shoe shopping with me is always an adventure...though if you ever want a real one? Go to a comic book store with Xander...it's a scary sight." She told her with a laugh before rolling her eyes at the brunette slayer’s question and answer about lighting some vampires on fire. “I’ll make you a deal…we find any you can light them on fire as long as you don’t light us on fire too. I don’t have a spare change of clothes and I am not in the mood for another death session with you just yet. I’m still scarred from the last time.”
They had reached the school before she realized it and she shivered. It wasn't as bad as what Sunnydale High School looked like after Giles had blown it up but it was still pretty cringe worthy. “First things first I think we need to go down to the basement and check the seal. I don’t know why but I just have this feeling that when Spike blew up Sunnydale? Didn’t get rid of the Hellmouth like we thought.” She told her before letting her in on a secret that she had been keeping for weeks. “Also, and you’re the only one who knows this so keep it to yourself. I was doing a bit of research a few weeks back and found out that the town council of Briardale which is only a few miles up. We pass through it on our way here…they are thinking of rebuilding Sunnydale…almost as if it was never gone. And before that happens we need to figure out if the hellmouth is still active.”

- - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - The second the question left the blonde's lips, Faith watched as her eyes hit the ground and she wished she hadn't asked it. Now, a normal human being would see that the blonde didn't want to talk about it and they'd leave it alone. Faith however was not a normal human being. Or a human being at all really, but more so, she just wasn't right in the head. Seeing Buffy dodge the question like that only made her want to pry even further. That's probably one of the reasons she'd been put into that coma. Well that, and she'd been a murderous psycho. Oh, and, one couldn't forget the one biggie Faith had done. She'd messed with Buffy's boyfriend. Anyone knew that was a bad fucking idea. Mess with the boyfriend of the blonde? You're just asking for trouble.
Coming back into reality and remembering the opportunity that had just presented itself, Faith shrugged. "Nah, that wasn't why you got that apartment. We know why you got that apartment. That's not what I wanna talk about, though." Walking beside the Slayer and still heading towards the school the brunette tried her hardest not to show the grin that wanted to poke through so badly. "What I wanna know is what happened in that basement, B. Y'all were a little too sweaty to just have been fightin' that whole time.." [/color] she said, curing up an eyebrow questioningly. The night they'd reensouled Angel, the Slayer had been more than a bit disheveled. Although she was hoping there was a dirty explanation she knew it probably wasn't true - the blonde was too mousey for that. Wasn't that a mouthful. Faith shrugged. "Sounds like a good plan to me. Although, maybe a bad one. Y'know how they never have the President and VP in the same building, just in case? Housing all of our people in the same building might not be the greatest idea. Just sayin'"[/color] she said with another shrug of her shoulders. Just an opinion. If they did buy the building they'd need some serious mojo to keep it secure and safe for all of them. Nodding knowingly about the hiding spot, she continued to take strong strides towards the high school. It was pretty far away still but at least still in view. A large grin appeared on her face at the mention of their last 'sparring' match. Limbs had been removed, people had been stabbed, lit on fire. "That was the most fun I've had in a long ass time"[/color] she said with a smirk. She wouldn't mind doing it again soon, that was for sure. A loud exhale left the brunette's lips. "This towns kinda like you. Just won't stay fuckin' dead."[/color] With this, she shook her head annoyingly and headed with her Sister inside of the building. First stop - the seal. Part of her hoped they wouldn't run into too much trouble, but yet enough trouble to keep her occupied. She got bored way too easily.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -She should have known that Faith wouldn't give up talking about the apartment issue for that long. She shook her head, groaning loudly when Faith made the sweaty comment. "It shouldn't be that hard to figure out what happened in that basement. Do you not remember how long it took for Angel to even look me in the eye afterwards?" She asked her with a quirk of her blonde eyebrow. Faith was probably one of the few people she would actually admit this too other than Spike and even when it came to Spike she hadn’t actually admitted it to him…he had been able to smell sex and Angelus on her.
Even then she had never actually admitted as far as she could remember.
Hell during that whole time she had been so fucked up she really had no idea if she had admitted it or not. Maybe she had, maybe she hadn’t. Either way she didn’t care…she just knew that out of everyone she would only admit it to Faith because Faith would be the only one who wouldn’t judge her. Well, maybe not judging her was the wrong term. Faith would probably give her ten types of shit but she wouldn’t look down on her for it.
Unlike the rest of her so called best friends.
“We fought for a while.” She finally admitted. “However one thing led to another and I ended up doing something that forever changed Angel and I’s relationship. I slept with for all intents and purposes his evil twin and he was forced to deal with the memories of it. After it was all said and done Angelus made a smart ass comment and I knocked him out and called Willow to start the spell. Angel woke up and he looked at me and he was so betrayed…that’s when I came and got you guys and brought you, Spike, Kathy and Willow to the boarding house.” She admitted, not looking at the brunette slayer as she spoke.
Her eyes and senses were attuned to that which was going on around her. She could feel vampires near but they weren’t the screaming senses of the Turok-Han which made her let out a soft sigh in relief. Not that she was afraid of them anymore but she really didn’t want to imagine any of those damn things still being left…especially because they had left this place alone for so long and that would mean that some could have escaped and gotten out into the world…something she really didn’t want to imagine.
“As for me not keeping the apartment for other reasons, your wrong there. I got it because of obvious reasons, but I kept it for my sanity as well.” She told her before smiling a brief smile of thanks at the change of subject. She laughed at the comment about not staying dead before shrugging. “Yeah well, what can I say. No one will let me stay stead.” Her voice a little bit more bitter than she had intended. “Both times it wasn’t me screaming to come back, it was someone else pulling me back.” It was the truth, though the first time she hadn’t been ready, the second time she had been.
She looked around the structure before making her way towards what she thought was the basement, bending down and wincing at the sight of the sword that had split Anya in two. She had made sure her body was removed but the sword and the blood was still soaked into the flooring. She was more than grateful that Xander had never been subjected to that sight because she had seen it and it had made her want to throw up.
“After you.” The blonde smirked at her sister slayer, letting her go first in case something jumped out at them. Not that she wouldn’t back her up but still, Faith was the one who constantly wanted action, she just wanted to make sure nothing was there that could harm anyone.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - The fact that the blonde actually admitted to the truth of what they'd done in the basement truly surprised her. For once in her life, she was speechless for a moment. It didn't last long, though, literally just a moment before she was spouting off again. Silence never lasted long with her - it wasn't even in her vocabulary. "Good goin', B. I knew you had some animal in you after all" she said with a wide grin. With a shrug, the grin disappeared. "And we all know he does" [/color] she added, remembering when she'd come across him the last time he'd lost his soul. See, not only had he lost his soul, but he'd fed on the New Slayers in the Boarding House. Normally Faith was evenly matched with him - but not on the blood high he had going that night. He'd destroyed her and could have killed her, if he'd wanted to. But that wasn't his style - he'd simply wanted to send a message. Faith shook her head. "Makes sense. I kinda figured, anyways, 'cause of how you guys acted afterwards. Knew it couldn't have just been because of the Slayers he killed."[/color] Looking down to their feet as they entered the school and she heard the bitterness in Buffy's voice, she couldn't seem to face her. While she hadn't been there and been a part of it, she got the gist of what had happened. From Angel, and occasionally from some of the others. She knew Buffy hadn't wanted to come back. She couldn't blame her. "For what it's worth, I wouldn't have. Brought ya back, that is. Nature is just...shit you don't mess with, y'know?"[/color] she shrugged, feeling stupid. It got quiet for a moment before she finally looked back up to the blonde, a seriousness in her eyes that was rarely ever seen, if at all. "Maybe it's just because I know...how hard it is, bein' us, y'know? I mean now there are more of us...but most of the time? I still only feel like it's you and I. I dunno. Whatever"[/color] she finished, shrugging it off like it was no big deal. Glad for the distraction of hitting the basement, Faith didn't hesitate to step up and go first. Hell - she was kind of hoping something would jump out at her. Stake in hand, she quickly turned her walk into a jog instead, heading quickly down towards the seal. Hoping they'd find a little bit of mischief, she didn't look back but heard Buffy following behind her. Sadly enough, this was going to be fun, and she was excited about it. What had her life become? Honestly? [/blockquote][/color] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ::TAG:: B::OUTFIT:: Click here for Faith's outfit.::WORD COUNT:: 503::NOTES:: <3::CREDIT:: Picture made by Kasey, Template made by Britt

Yes, she knew her sister slayer thought she was the dull one...the goody two shoes of the group and on some level she was...but she definitely did have a wild side to her. "Let's all remember that I've been with just as many vampires as I have humans...and if you want to count Angel and Angelus as two separate vampires which I most of the time do, I've slept with more vampires than I have humans. So you better remember that your not the only one with a wild side." She told her with a wink. She felt good to be joking about it but a tidal wave of guilt flooded through her as she thought it. Angel still hadn't forgiven her completely for her indiscretion and she doubted he would find the conversation as amusing as Faith did.
"Angel often hides the animal inside himself but you get to see it every once in awhile." She told her with a smile. She liked if when Angel showed his animalistic side...especially when he uses it when he's all possessive...what can I say...I like a possessive male. Unfortunately he doesn't show that side of him that often since he thinks it makes him less human...he doesn't seem to get that human men can be just as animalistic as vampire men." She stated with a smirk.
"Yeah, it was not a good time...the fighting afterwards that is. Luckily he had Kathy to handle or else he would have bolted I am sure. I'm still not sure he's not going to up and leave eventually." She admitted, hating that she had said it out loud but if she could talk to anyone about this it would be Faith. Willow would be optimistic even if it meant lying to her. Xander would tell her that it was better if he did leave...Giles would say the same thing after learning an out Angelus' most recent coming out party. Faith was really the only one who would be honest without trying to spare her feelings...and sometimes she needed that. Faith was definitely the queen of 'tough love'.
She had no idea how freeing it was to hear someone admit that they wouldn't have brought her back. No one had said it to her...not even Spike though he was the one who had helped her through all of it. Dawn hadn't either though she hadn't been involved in bringing her back. Not even Giles had said it to her...and she hadn't realized how much she had needed to hear it. "Thank you." She told her sincerely. "I really appreciate that." She knew most people would be confused at her gratefulness but she doubted Faith would be. They understood one another better than they had ever thought.
She could understand where Faith was coming from, feeling as if it was still just the two of them. "I do too. Even the slayers that know what they are doing...like Satsu and Sarah...they will never know what it's like to be the actual slayers...the chosen ones. They are slayers yes but they'll never be the only ones. We know what it feels like to have the world on our shoulders...they never will. And I'm glad about that but sometimes it still feels like we still are the only ones who really know."
She could feel vampires near but she didn't let it stop her from walking into the seal. Unfortunately she wished she would have as a body stopped her where she stood. Apparently the clean up crew that she had sent to get the bodies of those that they had know didn't come into the seal. "Shit." She muttered. It was Amanda.
"We need to get out of here and get a team in here to get the bodies...we will continue this later." She told her and yanked on her sister slayers arm. It was time to go.
