_____________________________________________________________________________________
ACT 1.
Nicadimas stands on a cliff, thinking about the last time he fought the slayers. When the being of light appears to him. It speaks to him, in another laugage, but there are subtitles, at the bottom. "You can't win" said the being" . You know that."
"We'll see."
"He will always be greater than you."
"Then why does he need you, to speak for him? I have a better question, why do you follow him, blindly? What has it ever given you?"
"That is the differents, between us. I do what is right, not what is good for me."
"You didn't answer. Because you don't know. You are nothing but his whore!"
"Careful. It's this additude, that got you here."
"Why did you help that girl? Her visions come from the powers, not from him?"
"Let's just say, he doesn't want you to have an unfair atavantage."
"Yes! Because he is always fair! Then maybe he shouldn't have made me invincible."
"You haven't changed. Your still the same selfish man, I met all those years ago."
"I'm the man, that will soon kill my enemys. And then maybe he will have to face me, himself."
"I almost feel sorry for you." Then he vanished."
"Don't feel for me, Samuel. Feel for them."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Faith, and Kennedy are fighting green demons(they look like the hulk, from the TV show) One puches at Faith, but she ducks, and slices it's head off. Another grabs Kennedy from behind, in a bear hug, but she head butts it, and jams her sword, in it's gut. There are three more. One hits Kennedy, with a club, and sends her flying. Then it swing at Faith. She drops drow, and rolls. It keeps trying to hit her, but she stays way from him. Suddenly Skyler runs up, and hits it, with a baseball bat. "DIE, ASSHOLE," she yells! It just looks at her, with a confused look. Kenny has gotten back up, and she, and Faith slice there heads off, wile they are looking at Skyler. "Damn, that was good" said Skyler, "That work like."
"WHAT THE HELL, WERE YOU THINKING" said Faith, "ARE YOU TRYING TO GET KILLED?"
"I was helping."
"HOW, BY MAKING THEM LAUGH TO DEATH?"
"Come on, I didn't want this! But since I'm here, I don't want to be hiding under a table, all the time. I want to help."
"You do help! You have visions, we fight! Go it? Look kid, you can't do what we do. Even if we trained you to fight, and you got really good, you can't hang with a vamp. Just the way, it is."
"Well, I've been thinking about that. And you right, I can't fight. But I could learn magic."
"Magic! (she give Kennedy a look) I wonder who's been telling you about that?
"Well, Uh" said Kennedy, "I may have told her some stories, about Willow, and her power."
"We'll fight, I mean talk, later. Skyler, you don't need magic."
"But I think I could do it. (she pulls out a book, of spells) I've been going over this."
"Where did you get that?"
"I bought it. I think I could learn."
"No. The last thing I need, is you, trying to destroy the world."
"I can destroy the world! What page is that on?" She starts looking though the book, but Faith grabs it from her. "HEY, I paid for that!"
"I don't care! You could hurt yourself, or worse, Me! Now forget it!"
"Come on, I just want to, to, AAAHHHHAAAA!" They grab her, as the vision comes. "What the hell," she said, after it was over?
"What'd you see," said Faith?
"Ok, this is weird, but Blackjack, and Abby were after us, and these two guys were helping us. One was a black guy. And this is weird, but I think the other guy, was a vampire. But he was helping us."
"What did he look like?"
"Ok, this sounds crazy, but he looked like, Billy Idol.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A car parks on the road, and Spike, and Gunn, are inside, yelling, at each other. "WHERE THE HELL, DID YOU LEARN TO DRIVE, ENGLISH" said Gunn, "WE HAVE SPEED LIMITS, IN THIS COUNTRY, YOU KNOW!"
"WELL. I WOULD LET YOU DRIVE, BUT I'M TIRED OFF BEING PASSED, BY GRANDMAS, AND TURTLES!"
"HEY, I GOT YOU TURTLE, RIGHT HERE!"
"(in a mocking voice) I GOT YOUR TURTLE, RIGHT HERE! WHAT ARE YOU BLOODY THREE?"
"That's is (Gunn gets out, of the car) I'm kicking your ass!"
"Oh, please, like you'd last five minutes, with me."
"Hey, you may have the muscle, but I got what I have, without powers. I'll mop the floor, with you, mama's boy!"
"MAMA's BOY! YOU CAN JUST SUCK MY!"
_______________________________________________________________________________________
ACT 2.
"SPIKE" said Kennedy, "As in, burned up, in Sunnydale, Spike?"
"Hey, I don't get it" said Faith, "but her visions, haven't been wrong, yet. Besides Buffy, and Angel, came back. So did Tara. Lets face it, normal rules, don't aply with us."
"so, where are they. Him, and this Gunn?"
"I'm not sure. I would rather find them, before Blackjack, and Abby do."
"I might be nice, to have help. I mean, not that I miss dogboy, or anything."
Faith girns "Ofcoarse not."
"But we had better luck, with three, then two."
"Yeah, we did." Faith had spoken to Oz once, since he broke up, with Liz. He'd told her, in no uncertain terms, to stay away, from him. "But we can't change that. By the way, about you putting ideas, in Skyler's head."
"I didn't! Well, not on purpose. I was just telling her some stories."
"About the girl, your not supposed to be thinking about, anyway. Man, you are so pussywhipped."
"Come on, is it really such a bad idea?"
"Yes! Magic's dangerous."
"So is having visions. I mean, she's always going to be in danger. And we can't always protect her. This way, she could protect herself. And we'd have one more person, that could fight."
"I said no! And I'm in charge. Do you want to be in charge?"
"Yes."
"Well uh, you can't."
"Just let her try, that's all I'm."
"No! And that's finnaly!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Skyler walks into work, talking to herself, "I'm Faith" she said, in a mocking voice, "I know everything, because I'm five, by five. You can't do magic Skyler. Because it's wrong." She walks into the office, and Oz is sitting there, by himself. "Hey" she said, "You Ok?"
"Yeah. I'm getting by."
"She's an idiot, you know."
"No, she's not. She's safer without me."
"I'm sorry. Can I do anything?"
"You can leave."
"Ok. I guess you want to be."
"No, I mean leave the store. You can pick up your last check, on friday. Your fired."
"What?"
"You heard me. Your always leaving, in the middle of your shift. Your always late. And those visions are scaring away customers."
"That's not my fault, you know that!"
"And, I don't care. This is a business. You can't do your job. (he sounds meaner, than normal) Your lucky I kept your pathedic ass around, this long."
"Your an asshole, you know that."
"Do I have to call the cops?"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"He fired you" said Sara, as they walked along the road. "that jerk!"
"That's what I said. He must be mad, because the kids, finnaly stoled his lucky charmes."
"Hey, he's a dick." Suddenly three men walked up to them. "Kind of late, for little girls, to be out, alone, isn't it?"
"Bite me," said Skyler. Then they vamp out. "That was the idea." The girls take off, as the vamps follow them. They loss the vampires, and Skyler goes for her cellphone. But it's gone. "Damn it! I must have drop it!'
"WHAT THE HELL" Sara said, "WHAT WAS THAT?"
Skyler reallies Sara's just seen vampires, for the first time. "It's going to be Ok, Sara."
"WHAT'S HAPPENING!?"
"They were vampires."
"WHAT?"
"I can't explain now, but we have to run now." Then the Vampires find them, and they run again. "Sure would be nice, if I could do MAGIC!" They try to get away, but the vampires tackle them. "Now why did you have to get us all worked up?'
"Didn't you mommy tell you not to pick on girls, mate," said a voice, behind them. They turned to see Spike, and Gunn standing there. "Get your own," said the lead vamp. He could sense Spike was a vampire. Though he wasn't sure why he was with a human, "We don't share."
"Now, thats rude" said Gunn, "I guess will just have to teach you boys, some manners." The vampires run at them. Gunn dodges one, pulls out an axe, and chops his head off. The other two try to double team Spike, but stakes shoot out of his sleeves, and he stakes them. "Ok, that was just bloody sad" said Spike, "I can't believe how far, my kind have fallen."
"Yeah" said Gunn, "I sure wish they'd almost killed us."
"Hey, all I'm saying is, it'd be nice to have a real fight, for a change." Suddenly a fist hits him, and sends him flying. "Ok," said Abby.
Gunn moved toward her, but Jack jumped in his way. Gunn swung his ax, and just missed Taking his head off. But Jack counterd, with a kick, in the jaw, and sent Gunn down. He picked Gunn up, and was going to brake his neck, but Gunn threw holy water, in his eyes. Then pulled out brass nuts, for both hands, and began hitting Jack.
Spike was up, and Abby hit him, with a round house kick, But he caught it, and said, "Oh, you like it rough, hu Ducks?"
"Did you just call me, a duck? Oh, now you have to die!" She kicks him, in the balls, and slammes his head, into the wall. She kicks at him, but he moves, and her leg gets stuck, in the wall. He picks up a garbage can, and hits her, on the head. She falls, but pulls out a knife, and stabs him, in the gut. Spike stands up, just as Gunn is thrown into him. "Well" said Gunn, as they got up, "I guess we'll have to get (ten more vamps, show up) Uh, crazy."
"Ok" said Spike, "New plan." They grab the girl, and make a run for it. The vampires chase them, but they get in the car, and peel out. "It's Ok, girls" said Gunn. I know this is starnge, and you don't know us, but."
"Your Gunn, and he's Spike" said Skyler, "You have to come with me."
"Ok, maybe you know more, than me."
"I get visions. And I help Faith."
"Faith" said Spike, "As in the slayer?"
"What's happening, Skyler," said Sara!
"Oh shit, I'm sorry Sara. I have to tell you something.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Later, at Faith's.
Skyler was with Sara, as Faith, and Kenny, talked with Spike, and Gunn. "So she get visions, like Cordy," said Gunn?
"Pretty much" said Faith, "So anyway she had one, with you guys, helping us."
"Now why don't anyone have visions, where I win the lotto?"
"Those vamps, you saw, are Blackjack, and Abigail Cain."
"I've heard of them" said Spike, "Supposed to be, really bad. I wasn't impressed."
"Well, she did kick you ass," said Gunn.
"She didn't kick my ass! I was just, you know surprise, and all."
"So, how are you still alive" said Kennedy, "since, you were burned up?"
"Yeah, funny thing, about that. That amulet thing, that burned me up. Well, it sort of brought me back, as a ghost. And finnaly made me flesh again. I wound up helping Angel, and his."
"Wait" said Faith, "You were there, when. I mean."
"He didn't make it, Love. I'm sorry. He was the hero, right to the end."
Faith put her head, in her hands, and tried to fight back the tears. Angel had been the only one, that though she was worth anything. Everyone else (including her) Though she was garbage. "Your not going to cry" she thought, to herself, "Your NOT going to cry!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Vampires, are real," said Sara?
"Yeah," said Skyler.
"And you get visions?"
"Yeah."
"And those people fight them? And the girls, are vampire slayer, and the Billy Idol, looking guy, is a vampire, but with a soul?"
"Pretty much."
"Ok, I got it. Your crazy."
"No! Well yeah, I've always been crazy. But I'm telling the truth. I know it's weird, but."
"I think, I want to go home."
"Ok, I see if someone can."
"No, I'll walk. They can't come in, if you don't invite them, right?"
"Yeah."
"Thanks, for saving me, I, goodnight."
"Sara, hold on. (She doesn't stop walking) Sara!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"So, the vamps" said Gunn, "What's there deal?"
"They're working for a vamp, named Nicadimas" said Faith, "That's all we know."
"Ha ha ha" Spike laughed, "hate to break it to you, pet. But you've been played. Nicadimas isn't real."
"You've heard of him?"
"Yeah, just like I've heard of Santa Claus, and Big Foot. Supposedly he's like the Vampire Jesus. A vampire, that can't be killed. Stonger than any slayer. And he'll one day, make the sun go away. (Faith, and Kenny get a horifed look, on there face) It's bullshit."
"MAKE THE SUN, GO AWAY" said Faith, "HOW THE HELL, CAN HE DO THAT?"
"Are you listening? He'd a soding myth! A fairy tale."
"Yeah, well this fairy tale, has kicked are asses, a couple of times. I've stake him, and nothing. He stood in the sun, and lived."
"Your serious."
"Trust me, he's the real deal. Now how do we beat him?"
"You don't, pet. I mean, there's diffrent stories about him. But they all agree on one thing. He can't be killed."
_______________________________________________________________________________________
ACT 3.
"Well, I'm sorry" said Faith, As she laid blankets on the groud, "this is the best, we can do. I'ts just a single room. And Kenny took over the couch, when she came. Doesn't leave much room."
"Hey, we're used to the car," said Gunn.
"So, what've you been up to, since, you know."
"Well, we've had to keep moving. Wolfram, and Hart are still after us. So, we've been A-teaming it, over America. Helping people, when we can, for the last year."
"Yeah, how you guys, getting along?"
"Oh, I want to kill him. Except he'd just come back."
"Yeah, I guess. So you were with him, when it happened?"
"Yeah, he put up a great fight, but it was to much. You know, we didn't always see eye, to eye, but I'd be dead, if I'd never met him."
"Yeah, I know what you mean. I didn't deserve a second chance. But he didn't give up. I guess that's why I'm doing this. Working for the powers, and all. Not that I think there so great."
"No arguements, here."
"But, it's a good fight. It's what he'd want. So been on the road, a year hu? Just you, and Spike. Does it get loney?"
"Alittle. But what can you do? I mean, it's not like, you can just, hook up, afer killing demons. Besides, After Fred."
"I know, what you mean. I lost someone too. In fact, he was the only man, I've ever really loved."
"Sorry."
"Nah, it's Ok. It's been a year. I mean I miss him, and all. But you got to move on, you know. I mean, if I get that lucky again, great. But if not, well sometimes, you make due."
"I hear you."
She puts her hand, on his chest, "I don't think, you do."
"Oh."
"I'm not asking you, to love me, big guy. I'm just saying, I don't want to be alone, tonight."
"Well, I think I can help, with that." She pulls him, into her bed room, and kisses him, passionatly. As they kiss, He moves his hands, up, and down, her back. She pulled her shirt off, and threw it to the ground He to massage her breast. Her breathing becomes heavier, as she reaches into his pants, and grabs his cock. "Damn, she thinks, "No wonder, they call him, Gunn.
"Hey, slow down, baby" he said, "we've got all night."
She pushes him, onto the bed, and pulls her shirt off, "Slow down? I'm not that kind off girl. Now, get those pants, off."
"Yes, maam." He wasn't sorry, to be rushed. He hadn't been with a woman, since Gwen. let's just say, he was ready. He pulled off, his shirt, and pants. And Faith striped off her remaining clothes. She had a prefect body. She moves onto him, and he slides his cock, into her. She begins to grind into him. As they move faster, Faith begins to moan, "Yeah! Oh God, Yeah! That's it's Oh OH OH FUCK ME! FUCK ME! YEAH!!!!
Kennedy is sitting outside, listening (not that's she's easy droping, just there so loud) "Lucky bastard," she says, in a bitter tone.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spike walked outside, for a smoke, and saw Skyler, sitting there. "So, your the new vision girl, Hu," he said?
"Yeah. And it sucks."
"Where's your little friend? "
"She took off. Probably won't speak to me, again."
"Yeah, people seem to run, we're there almost killed. Their funny that way."
"Go to hell, you son, of a bitch!"
"(I like this girl, already) Relax pet. I feel for you, I do. It's a tough gig. You don't get powers, but your suppost to fight. Seems to me, the powers, that screw you, like to stack the deck, against us."
"So, why do you do it?"
"What else, am I going to do? Vampire, with a soul. Dosen't exactly make a good resumay."
"Well, at least you, can fight."
"Well, if it's really Nicadimas, it's not going to make, a differents. Not much you can do, againts someone, that can't be killed. Except be, where he's not."
Suddenly Skyler's eyes, lit up. "Hey! I just got an idea! Listen, I don't have a license, because, well, you don't need to know, that story. Can you take me, to get some things?"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
About ten minutes, later, Kennedy is sitting, in the kitchen, when the door opens. "You missed the show" she said, bitterly, as she walked to the door, "Faith, and." Then she's hit, and sent flying, into the wall. "I though, it was time, to settle, are differents," said Nicadimas, as he walked in. Faith, and Gunn, hear the noise, quickly get dressed, and run to the kitchen. "How'd you get in" said Faith, "You weren't invited!"
"Yes. And it breaks my heart." Gunn runs to him, and puts his axe, in his head. But he punches him, into the wall, pulls the axes out (the wound vanishes) And throws it, at Gunn. He barley gets out, of the way.
Faith hits him, but he grabs her, and rams her head, into the floor. Gunn goes under the sink, and finds, a bucket, lysol, and bleach. (If you don't know, mixing lysol, and Bleak is very posioness. You can die, from the fumes.) He mixes it, and throws it, in Nicadimas's face.
Gunn, and the girls, head out the door, to the cars, And see they've been totaled. "SHIT," said Faith.
"Where's Spike, and Skyler," said Kennedy?
"I don't know" said Gunn, "but are car, is gone, so there probably safe." Suddenly Nicadimas, comes out, of the house. "Which is more, than I can say, for us, Run!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spike, and Skyler pull up, and go inside. "Where are they," said Skyler?
"I don't know" said Spike, "but someone else was here. A vampire. And they didn't need an invite."
"Oh shit! We have to find them!"
"I can follow them. Smell them."
"Ok, I just have to get something, from inside, first."
"I'm really not sure, about this, pet."
"I can do this."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Faith, and the others, run through the desert. "Wepons" said Kenny, "we don't have any wepons!"
Suddenly they hear gunshots, as bullets fly at them, "We do" said Abby.
They duck behind a large rock. But lighting strikes it, and blows it, away. They see Nagima standing there. "Why fight" she said, "You must reallise, you can't win."
Then Spike jumps Jack, and Abby, and kicks there guns away. "Yeah" he says, "well, we real dumb." Faith runs at Abby, and tackels her. Spike goes after Jack, and Kenny, and Gunn, deal with the witch. (Skyler is hiding, in the car).
Nagima, throws enegy, at Gunn, but he ducks, and sweeps her legs. Kenny kicks her, and shes her flying, into a catus. Suddenly Nagima says some words, and spikes, shoot from the ground, and almost hit Kenny, but she jumps.
Faith, and Abby are trading punches, and kicks, wile Spike, and Jack are using old school brawling. Jack pulls a knife, and stabs at Spike, but he grabs his arm, and head butts him.
Suddenly Nicadiams, appears, and hits Kenny, and Gunn, across the desert. Faith goes at him, but he drops her, with a punch. Spike trys to stop him, but he grabs, his neck. "Your a vampire" he said, "you should be on my side."
"Goes to hell, you bloody poof," Spike gasped!
"Ah, that's not polite. Who's going to send me there? You, you human friend? Those sad excusses for slayers? Prehaps, the little coward, hiding, in the car?"
"She's not a coward, jackass" Spike laughed, "She's hiding, so you don't see what she's doing."
We see Skyler, in the car. She's in the back seat, with a bunch of crystals, in front of her. And she's reading, from the spell book.
Suddenly there's a flash of green light, and a portal opens, in the middle of the desert. "WHAT THE FUCK'S GOING ON," said Faith?
"GET THEM, IN THE PORTAL" said Spike.
"OH, OK!" Faith kicks Abby, into the portal. Jack goes after her, and winds up, in it to. Nagima throws a blast, at Faith, but she ducks, and kicks her, into the vortex. "Well" said Nicadimas, "which one of you, can get me." before he can finnish, Nigima hits him, with enegy, and pulls him, in. The the portal closes.
They fall, to the ground, and Nicadimas grabs her, "WHAT DID YOU DO?"
"Well, if I have to suffer, a hell dimension, I want you to, as well!"
Jack, and Abby, get up, and realise the sun is out. "OH SHIT" they yell, until the reallise, it's not burning them. "Where are we" said Abby? The they turn, and see green demons, dressed as vikings. "Who let you cows, go free," said one of the demons?
"What'd you call us," said Abby? As she, and Jack pulled there guns, and fired.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Did it work," said Skyler?
"Yeah, pet" said Spike, "Where'd you send them?"
"I don't know. Just away."
"Ok, what the hell, is going on," said Faith?
"Well, we couldn't kill him. So the kid did a spell, and sent him, to another dimision."
"SPELL! I told you, no spells! I'm pretty sure, I was speaking english!"
"Hey, I just saved us!"
"You could've killed us! I said no magic!"
"Oh come on" said Kennedy, "It was pretty cool. You did good, kid."
"NO! she didn't do good!"
"Hey, I had my douts" said Spike, "But she did it. And it's her first spell. Kid's got some major jucie."
"No" said Faith, "No jucie. Weneseday doesn't get any jucie."
"I think you out voted," said Kenny. (Skyler flash a victorious smile, at Faith)
"Yeah, well if she destroys the world, don't come crying to me!"
______________________________________________________________________________________
ACT 4.
The next day, Skyler sat alone, at lunch. She hadn't seen Sara all day, and Zeke hadn't spoken to anyone, since his beating. "I guess all my friend, are gone," she thought. Just then Sara sat beside her." Hey, where've you been."
"I overslept. I wouldve staied home, all day. But mom came home, and made me come. Bitch."
"That sucks. So, are we cool?"
"Yeah, I was just, you know. Vampires. Woah. But it's cool."
"Thanks."
"Hey, it's not like people are beating down, my door, to hang with me."
"Well, there stupid. (they hug).
"So, are leperchans real, too?"
"Don't be stupid. Actulay maybe.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Faith walks in, after her shift, at the plant (Kenny's still at work) She see's Spike, and Gunn loading their car. "You leaving?"
"Yeah, said Gunn, " we got to be moving on."
"To bad. We could use your help. We make a good team."
"Yeah, well Wolfram, and Hart, are still after us."
"yeah, well don't be a stanger."
"Hey, never know, when I'll show up."
"Oh please" said Spike, "no time, for a booty call, Chuck."
"Jealous Spkie?" Spike flips him off, and he gets in. Faith watchs, as the drive away.
"Well, we're got to meet up," said Spike.
"I felt bad, lying to her."
"Yeah, but it's bad enough she knows we're alive. Let alone, that we came, because we came, because we have are own vision guy."
"Yeah, I though that was a one time, thing."
"Guess not."
They pull into a vacant lot, and a man is waiting for them. "We got it done" said Gunn, "Ofcoase the old witch, will just find a way, to get them back."
"Well, we bought them some time. Hopfully that's enough," said Angel.
Ok be honest. I think this is an Ok chapter, but I'm not sure I did Spike, and Gunn justice. I'm a fan of both, but don't get a chance to write them, to often. Let me know, what you think, and what you think I could have done diffrently.
Thanks. AXEL.
