“I’ll go talk to her,” Willow said.
“No, I’ll go,” Angel told her.
“She doesn’t want to talk to you,” Spike said, “I’ll go.”
“I’m her best friend,” Willow reasoned.
“Yeah, but it’s my fault she’s angry,” Angel said.
“Which is why you shouldn’t go mate, might say something stupid and upset. Maybe even cause her to stake you. On second thought go ahead,” Spike told him.
The 3 of them began to argue and Faith sighed, “I’ll talk to her,” she said as she left, closing the door behind her. They had been so busy fighting that they hadn’t even notice Faith leave until she closed the door. They all shrugged and went about their business.
**************************
Faith walked out of Wolfram Hart and squinted in the glaring sunlight. She could see Buffy sitting on the curb and she walked over to her and sat down, talking out a cigarette, lighting it, and beginning to smoke. Faith stayed silent.
“You know those are really bad for you,” Buffy said. Faith just shrugged and looked at her. Buffy shook her head, “We don’t need there help.”
“I think we do,” Faith replied and Buffy looked at her, “There’s no way B. With only the 3 of us, there’s no way.”
“We can’t trust Wolfram and Hart.”
“We only have to trust Angel.”
“I don’t know if I can anymore,” Buffy sighed in defeat, “What am I going to do?”
“Apologize, tell Angel the truth, or some Dr. Phil crap like that.”
Buffy smiled and Faith did as well. They may not always get along but they both realized they shared a bond, they were slayers, and nothing was going to change that.
“I’ll go talk to him,” Buffy said, getting up, “You coming.”
“I’m gonna finish my smoke.”
Buffy nodded.
*********************
“Are you sure we should be doing this? It seemed like Buffy had her mind made up,” Gunn said. He was in the lab with Willow, who was working on a lab top, Fred, and Wesley. Lorene and Angel were in their respective offices and Spike was he wasn’t really sure where Spike was.
“She’ll come around,” Willow said, “Trust me.”
“So how are we going to find all these slayers anyway?” Fred asked.
“Well, I’m making a database of everyone who was in the school’s names. Then I’ll sort it into who we knows alive and…not. I’m putting pictures for each person too and then I guess we’ll trying looking for them in magic,” Willow said.
“It’ll take awhile, I doubt you could do it all by yourself,” Wesley said.
Willow shrugged, “I figured you’d help me with the mojo part.”
“Of course.”
“Also we can access the records of all the morgues in the country with this,” Fred said, indicating the computer she was working on, “If they found any bodies we’ll know.”
“Sounds like a plan,” Gunn said.
***************
“Angel, can we talk?” Buffy asked, walking into his office.
“Sure,” he said with a nod.
“I’m sorry, but you have to understand my feelings. Its just hard trusting this place.”
“You don’t need to trust this place, you need to trust me.”
“I know I want to but I’m having trouble.”
“Well, that’s your problem. If you don’t want my help, Buffy that’s fine but if you do you have to trust me. In our line of work we need to trust the people we’re working with.”
“And you trust this place?”
“I trust my friends and I believe we can make this work. I’ve never given you a reason not to trust me.”
“Then lets do this,” Buffy said with a smile.
