Ranked #2 in Buffy. After Faith wakes up from her coma with amnesia, she attempts to put her life back together again. Buffy is forced to try and help.
"Take the slayer and her bitch to a holding cell."
Her bitch?
"There are no more..."
Okay that's it.
I spin around, grabbing the gun of the guy behind me and use the handle to hit him in the forehead, knocking him out. I point the gun at the Colonel's head.
"Her BITCH? YOU BASTARD! I am NOT her BITCH!"
I aim the gun and put my finger on the trigger. Four of the five guns are pointed at me, the last one still pointed at B.
"Faith calm down."
"Calm down? Did you hear what he called me? He called me your BITCH."
"I know."
"I'm NOT your BITCH."
"No, no you're not. You're far from it, but now is not the time."
"I'm not gonna let this Colonel Clink reject talk to me like that."
Fucking bastard.
"Faith this isn't the time."
Not the time?
"Why not?"
All of the sudden the lights go out and the emergency lights come on. The alarm sounds and I look at B.
"Because we've got bigger things to worry about right now."
I look around at the flashing orange lights spinning against the poorly lit blue over head lights.
She's right.
I lower the gun and take my finger off the trigger.
"Adam must know we're here."
"That'd be my bet."
"I told you people, Adam is NOT here."
B and I look around the room and we both have the same thought.
"Your security system begs to differ."
All seven guys look at us like we're insane. We look at each other and shrug. I speak first.
"It's a slayer thing. We're both slayers by the way."
One of the toy soldiers breaks in.
"Sir, what do we do?"
"Well I..."
He doesn't finish as one of the scientists bursts through a door on the other end of the room.
"They've escaped, dear god they've escaped!"
The Colonel yells at him as he approaches.
"Who? Who's escaped?"
A demon bursts through the door, chasing the panicked scientist.
"The..."
The demon catches up and tackles the scientist and sinks its teeth and claws into him. It almost looks like a werewolf with all the fur covering it, except there's no full moon tonight, or this morning I should say since it's almost dawn. The situation finally clicks in for the Colonel as the demon finishes off the scientist about 10 feet from us and starts looking for its next victim.
"The H.S.T.s... they've escaped."
You think?
One of the action figures with brains speaks up.
"How many do you suppose sir?"
I guess having brains was going too far.
"If I had to guess, probably all of them, but maybe that's just me."
Three more demons burst through the door and they are joined by a couple more demons from some other part of the Initiative.
"It's not just you Faith."
She smiles at me and I check my gun.
"We have to take the armoury before it's too late."
If I were him? I'd know it's already too late, but that's just me.
"But sir, what about... them?"
The Colonel looks at me and B.
"Leave them, with any luck the H.S.T.s will take them out for us. Move out."
Not likely.
I look down at the gun in my hands.
What do I need this for?
"Hey kid."
The guy I knocked out starts to get up and tries to shake it off. I lob the gun to him and he catches it.
"You'll need this more than I will."
He turns and follows his troop toward what I'm assuming is the armoury, fighting demons along the way. Screams start to come from the pit as the demons in there start to break free of their restraints.
"Rude much? HEY! Where's my thank you?"
I turn to B.
"See, this is why I hate helping people, they're never grateful."
"Yeah, I know."
I look around at the growing number of demons and soldiers in the room.
"Hmm, quite a little massacre Adam's got going eh?"
"Yeah pretty good plan, he doesn't have to do any of the massacring himself."
"Well, what do you want to do now? Take the demons down one by one till there aren't any left? Cause I could use the big fight about now."
"Nah, we'd never make it. I have a feeling this place is gonna be swarming with demons in a matter of minutes. I say we go for the head. We go for the master in this master plan."
"Adam."
"Any idea where to start looking?"
"Well, he was created in room 314. I figured we'd start there."
"Sounds like as good an idea as any."
"It's over this way, let's go."
I follow her to that room 314.
