Buffy, Giles, and the others walked into Sunnydale Community Hospital. It was quite too quite. They started down the hall. Buffy held a stake in her hand. "ok everyone be on your guard. If they are here, we need to be careful, if they did what Giles said to those kids then this could get dangerous." She paused and looked at her mom. "if it does mom you Willow and Oz get out of here, no arguments. I don't need any of you getting hurt." She insisted. When she looked back down the hall and saw the nurses body. She felt sick. "don't look guys," she said simply standing in their way. "Willow keep my mom here." She ordered.
"Buffy what is it?" willow asked not seeing the body then she caught a small glimpse of a pool of blood. "right will do Buff. Just be careful." She said and took Joyce's arm "this way Mrs. Summers." She said as she and Oz steered Joyce around the corner.
"Giles who ever did this wasn't alone, it would take a lot more then one vamp or demon to do that to someone." She swallowed hard as they started down the hall there was barely any where to step with out stepping in blood or on parts of the nurse. If it weren't for the blood stained hat, and the nametag, there would be no way to identify her.
They made it to Faith's room; there was blood on the door and the doorknob. "God Giles I know Faith tried to kill me and help the mayor but she didn't deserve to die with out a chance." She said almost in tears and she watched him open the door, he walked in the room ahead of her. Buffy stood in the doorway not sure she could walk in.
From in side she heard a frantic call. "Buffy quickly!!" Giles yelled and Buffy ran into the room pushing the door open wide. There lying beaten on the floor was Xander. He was bruised and bleeding. Buffy stood there almost in shock then went to Giles and Xander.
"Oh Xander!" she exclaimed, "Is he?" she asked not sure what to think she felt so responsible for all of this. Why was he there. Why hadn't they gotten here sooner. She looked at Giles her eyes pleading for an answer as he felt for a pulse.
"He's alive." Giles replied a sound of joy and relief in his voice. He looked down at the boy, with concern and worry. As Buffy sighed with relief, she too looked at her friend then remembered Faith. Had Faith been so lucky? She looked up at the bed. It was empty. Fear filled her eyes and heart, as she looked back to Xander and Giles.
Xander began to come around, "Faith..." He whispered, and collapsed back in to a state of unconsciousness. As he did. Buffy ran from the room for a doctor, leaving Giles to tend to Xander.
