What are we gonna do now?

Chapter 7

~~&~~&~~&~~&~~&~~&~~

The two young women are staring at each other. Their faces less than a foot apart. Each is trying to outstare the ot but but neither is willing to blink.

“Well?” Faith says

“You’re nuts” Buffy replies. “ I told you why I’m leaving”

“ And I’m to believe that crap?” Faith asks

“It’s the reason”, Buffy is adamant.

“ So, I guess it never happened then.” Faith retorts.

“What never happened?” Buffy queries.

“That kiss. It never happened?” Faith ripostes.

Buffy loses the contest. Her eyes look down, and her cheeks flush.

“Oh” Buffy. Small voice.

Faith contemplates. Keep torturing her, or have mercy. Torture, mercy. Hard choice. She finally decides mercy, as the other slayer looks so miserable(Hey, it wasn’t THAT bad!)

“ Look, Buffy. You were in a very emotional state. You…needed comfort, and sought it out. I just happened to be there. If I’d been a 3 eyed slime demon, you probably woulda kissed me at that moment”, Faith says, then sees the other slayer’s reaction. “Ok, maybe not a 3 eyed slime demon, but you get the point”.

“Anyway, Blondie. Don’t get so full of yourself. It wasn’t the best kiss I’ve had ya know” Faith teases her

Buffy is tired of being called Blondie “ Is that so, ‘Dimples’ ?” Heh. Let her digest that one.

Faith gets a smirk on her face, of course showing off her cute dimples “ Oh, is that it now? We’re gonna start having cute names for each other?” Faith’s voice is dripping sarcasm.

“ If you can call me Blondie, I can call you Dimples…Dimples” Buffy giggles

Grrrrrr

“Fine. I'm tired. I’ve been up all night. I’m gonna catch a few hours, take a shower, then take you over to the training center. I suggest you do likewise, you could probably use a few more hours. But whatever, entertain yourself,” Faith sees Buffy looking again at the ‘mystery room’. She frowns. “ Except get any funny ideas about that room. It's private. Don’t go in there unless I invite you to. Goodnight … morning … shit, whatever” Faith gets up, and heads towards her bedroom. “ If you’re hungry, there is some stuff in the fridge to snack on.” She looks back, and sees Buffy look at her tossed suitcases. “ Oh yeah, and get that stupid idea of you leaving out of your head, Blondie” She leaves .

Gotcha, Dimples, Buffy thinks. She goes over, grabs her cases, and takes them back upstairs. She is not sure about this, but right now Faith sounds in a “Don’t give me grief” mood. She drops her cases in her room, looks at the bed…thinks, Nawwww…not really wanting that right now, and wanders back downstairs. What to do for a couple of hours? Go for a run? Yeah, right. Downtown L.A. early morning. Might wind up spending more than a few hours getting out of jail. Never mind waking up Faith and pissing her off more. Ok, how about a walk? Yeah, right. Muggers. Not that they would bother me, but then I have to explain to the police why and how I broke their arm(s). So not fun. Veg in front of TV. Plan! It has all the ingredients. Snacking goodness, silly shows, no thinking. I like it.

Buffy wanders over to the fridge, finds something yummy to snack on. Wanders back to TV. Turning sound down low to keep from disturbing Faith(aka, dimples, hee, hee), she surfs till she finds something incredibly stupid to watch(ok, not so much surfing).

Faith wakes up about 3 hours later. She slowly opens one eye, groans, then opens the other. Bad idea. Feel worse now. Oh well, probably feel better after a shower and change. God, feel like the Ick demon from hell. She gets up, puts on a robe( Blondie would freak if I go down naked) and leaves the Bedroom . Hears quiet crying. Oh, hell. Is she ok? What happened.

Sees Buffy on the couch, quietly sobbing. Goes over to Buffy.

“B. What is it? Are you ok?” Faith asks, concerned.

“ It…it…it’s Marissa. She…she’s leaving Ben for Roberto. It’ s..s..so sad!” Buffy sniffs., waving her hand at the TV.

Faith just stares at Buffy. She walks away towards the bathroom, mumbling * stupid soaps. How can anyone watch those things? *

Faith turns on the shower, drops her robe and jumps in. She lets the warm water hit her, and revels in it. Awww…better, much. She hums to herself and lathers up, and starts thinking about this morning. She is a little disturbed with what she found out, and is more than a little worried about Buffy. She knows for a fact she is not letting Buffy move out somewhere on her own. Not now, anyway. Not ‘til she is sure she is ok, and not going to have any more ‘episodes’. That is just scary. And she might hurt herself, or others. No, she’ll just have to stay here for now. Not that that’s such a bad thought. Faith smiles. She thinks about that little kiss Blondie (Dimples? GRRRR) planted on her. Ok, maybe thinking too much about that. Have to admit though, that girl can kiss. Ok, Faith, let it go. It was just an emotional thing. Not gonna happen again. … sigh.

She finishes up, jumps out and towels down. Throws on her robe, and runs the brush through her hair. ‘Anyway, if I get her back working, probably be better’ Faith thinks. ‘ She’ll be busy enough and won’t have time to dwell on things. Shoulda taken her earlier, but just so tired, couldn’t have made it. Well, anyway, it’ll be best she get busy.’

Faith exits the Bathroom, sees Buffy still glued to the set. How can she do that? I would go wiggy. Ahhh, well.

“Hey, B. Unless you plan on going in that” Looking at her rumpled sweats “ I would suggest you change and run a comb thru that blonde tangle of yours . We’re going to the Center soon”

“Aw. Mom. Do I gotta?” Buffy whines.

Faith walks over, and shuts off the TV.

“ Yeah, ya gotta. Get off your lazy butt and move, girlfriend. Prove to me that I didn’t make a mistake in not looking up Kennedy instead” Faith ducks the sofa pillow tossed at her head, and heads upstairs to dress.

Knew that would do it. B has a total pathological hatred of that girl.

Heh.

~~&~~&~~&~~&~~&~~&~~

It's late in the afternoon when the two women approached the campus of the Training Facility. Well, campus might be a bit overstating it. It was actually a couple of acres of grounds with two buildings on it. It was surrounded by a wall, to keep out prying eyes. Inside the ‘campus’ consisted of two buildings. The first, and largest was the Training Facility itself. It stood at the apex of the circular drive. Behind it and back a little was a smaller building; this was the dorm house for the Slayers-in-training. Except for a small parking facility, that was the extent of buildings on the grounds. Otherwise, the grounds consisted of a small patch of woods, some gardens and a well kept lawn. At first glance, it resembled more like the mansion of some rich celebrity, or such. The only identifying feature, from the outside, was a small plaque at the gate with the legend “ Council Training Facility” and the address. The whole idea was to keep it low key and inconspicuous; it was not a place you wanted on the 5 dollar tour bus route. Or any tour bus route, for that matter.

Faith turned in the gates, activating a remote control she kept in the car. “When the State of California is crazy enough to grant you a real license, you can use this to get in. For now, I’ll arrange someone to drive you in and home.” Buffy glared at her, but didn’t say anything…but Faith better get used to Dimples real fast. Ahhh…revenge is sweet, she thought.

Faith parked the car, and they walked to the main building. It looked like any larger home on the outside.

Inside, it was a little different. There was a small lobby/reception area in front, walled off from the rest of the first floor. The only doors to the rest of the first floor we a large set of double doors in to the side of the reception desk. There was also a staircase to the far left of the lobby, for entrance to the other floors.

“ This way, B. Time for the cheap tour” Faith indicated the double doors. They went in

Inside must have been the largest gymnasium Buffy had ever seen. It was divided into various areas, and mats covered most of the floors. One wall had cases full of weapons. There were training dummies everywhere. One area had punching bags and weight training equipment. Another had gymnastic equipment. There was one area wd ofd off from the rest.

“ What is that for?” Buffy asked, curious.

“That’s a meditation room. Some of the students find it helpful for concentration to meditate.”

Buffy shrugged. Whatever.

“Most of the physical training goes on down here, though we also use the ground for running and some tactical exercises. As you can see, we have it split up pretty well between physical training, weapons and fighting training. Not bad, huh?”

“Sure beats the little back room of the Magic Box” Buffy agreed.

“Well, I’m sure that was fine for one slayer, but we often have up to 100 girls here at a time. Your old space probably get crowded a bit.” Faith grins.

“ One hundred? That must be fun. I thought a dozen was bad.” Buffy is just trying to put it in perspective. Surely different reading about it in reports, and actually seeing it.

“Right now, we have 50 active residents. More are expected at the beginning of a new training term.” Faith replied.

Buffy is just kinda wandering around. She is trying to get her bearings. For fun, she does a couple of punch kick combos on the training dummies. Cool. She wanders around, and looks at the weapons lockers.

“ So, who has the keys to these?” Buffy asks

“ You’ll get a set. There are one set each for the weapon’s instructors, and your set. Otherwise, it’s felt best not to have too many keys floating around. You know kids and toys”

“Yeah, these have sharp edges and spiky things. Not suitable for children under 10”

Ok, well... enough for playtime. Now for the boring stuff” Faith says. Buffy groans. Not paperwork, please!” Up the stairs, Missy” Faith teases.

They walk upstairs, and find what looks like an average school. Lot and lots of classrooms. Buffy pouts.” Damn. Thought I left classrooms behind when Sunnydale became a hole in the ground”

“Well, at least you don’t have to attend class, if you don’t want to”, Faith laughs. “Believe me, I get the wiggins walking into a classroom . But along with the specialized learning, we have to keep up a full academic schedule here. Otherwise, the parents would get wiggy, and we’d have no students.”

“ What? No library? No Giles?” Buffy looks around. Faith indicates to follow her. They ascend another staircase. Well, Buffy thinks, at least you get your workout just going around this place.

“ Up here we have the library, Cafeteria(Buffy groans)..don’t worry, it's real food. We don’t stint on feeding the girls, or ourselves. They work it off. Also, we have the offices(Buffy is dreading that), and a game room(ok, cool). Let me introduce take you into the library, and see if Havers is around somewhere.”

They enter the library, and Buffy feels almost at home. Dusty books everywhere, lots and lots of stacks. Rows of library tables, and of course the usual counter. On the second floor is a small office with the legend “ Librarian” on it. No one is in sight.

“ Yo, Havers. You around here?” Faith calls out. A faintly British voice answers from above, in the stacks “ Be right with you. Just filing some book returns”

A tall man, well built, with brown hair, slightly thinning on top, appears from the stacks. He has a slightly aristocratic face, and is wearing gold rim spectacles. He is wearing a brown tweed three piece suit. His age is somewhere in the middle to late thirties.

Buffy looks at Faith, and they both go: “GILES” and laugh.

The man comes down to the library check out desk. “ Hello, Ms. DeMarco. How can I help you?” He looks at Buffy, not sure what to make of her.

“ Hello, Havers. I would like to introduce you. Ms. Summers, this is Wendell Havers. Mr. Havers, this is Ms. Elizabeth Summers”

“ Just call me Buffy” Buffy smiles, and extends her hand.

“Buffy? Buffy Summers? THE Buffy Summers? Oh, Indeed” Wendell takes her hand, nearly shaking it off “ It's indeed an honor and privilege to meet you, Ms. Summers. I have heard so much about your exploits! Welcome to our humble library.”

Buffy looks at Faith, like, is this guy for real?

Faith just chuckles. “Wendell, here , has a bit of Hero worship for you and Rupert Giles. He dreams of being a watcher, don’t you Wendell?” Wendell reaches for his glasses, and cleans them. “ Ahem, yes, someday when I complete my training”. Buffy is nearly ready to bust out laughing. She didn’t realize there could be two Giles in the world.

Buffy reaches out, trying to restrain her laughter, and pats his arm. “Don’t worry, Havers, I'm sure you’ll do just fine” She is biting her lip, hard.

“Thank you, Ms. Summers. I do so hope to prove worthy” Geeze, Giles and Wesley, rolled into one package. Who woulda thought? Buffy knows she has to get out of here, fast.

“Nice meeting you, Wendell” Buffy is near hysterics, and walks out of the library, fast.

“ I …I didn’t do anything to offend her, did I?” Havers asks, concerned.

“Oh… No, not at all, Havers” Faith too is finding it hard not to laugh. “ Just we have a lot yet to see today”

“Oh, thank goodness. I would hate to have her upset with me” Havers is quite taken with the small slayer already.

“Well, Travers, gotta motor. See ya” Faith has gotta go, now

“Always a pleasure, Ms. DeMarco” Havers replies, a tiny bit puzzled

Faith makes a hasty retreat from the library.

She finds Buffy leaning up against a wall, holding her stomach, just ending a huge laugh. Faith sees her, busts out laughing, and both slayers are helpless, laughing. They try to keep it quiet so Havers won’t hear.

“Do they have a factory in England where they turn these guys out?’ Buffy is hiccupping a little now

“ I don’t know, but the first time I met him, I nearly died” Faith is laughing pretty hard.

“ God, I thought Giles was one of a kind. Boy, was I wrong. Geeze, even down to the tweed” Buffy is chuckling now. Then she sobers a little “ Though, yes, Giles, despite being the model for …Travers?( Faith says “Havers”) Havers...right...is unique. I’m gonna miss him” Buffy says.

“ Yes, you two were close” Faith remarks. Buffy starts to giggle again

“What?” Faith asks

“Can you see Havers and Giles together in that place? You wouldn’t hear from them for a week” Buffy is laughing again.

Faith joins her, and they lose another five minutes to laughing. Buffy slowly sobers up, and realizes she is gonna have to see her office now…her stomach is turning over. So not looking forwardthatthat.

“Well, I guess I should show you your office now” Faith reflects Buffy’s thoughts.

Faith walks Buffy over to where the offices are located, and Buffy sees her prison cell. She sighs. I hope I don’t get stuck here too much. Almost like reading her mind, Faith says

“Don’t worry, B. I have a very able paper pusher assistant that handles most of the day to day. All you’ve gotta do is once in awhile look things over and approve them” Buffy looks at Faith, and her face brightens. God, I could almost kiss her…no, wait, I did that already…better not encourage her. She already gave me grief today about that!

“ Thank you, thank you , thank you” Buffy says. “ One more pile of paper, and I was gonna scream” Faith grins.

“So, B? Ready to meet some of the girls? I have some of the more senior girls scheduled to meet us downstairs. They will be some of the girls you will be training” Faith says. She is grinning big time now.

Buffy sees Faiths grin, and knows she has something up her sleeve. Not sure is she is gonna like this.

“Ok, fine. Sounds great”

Yeah. Great.

~~&~~&~~&~~&~~&~~&~~

They enter the gym, and see a group of about 7 girls sitting on a mat by the hand fighting area. Faith leads Buffy over and introduces her.

“ Ladies…LADIES, if you please” getting the chatting girls attention “ I would like to introduce you to your new instructor. This is Ms. Elizabeth Summers. She will be heading up your advanced fight skills class from now on”

There are a few groans, and some titters. Buffy sighs. Oh, boy, this is gonna be fun, I can see.

“ Hi, glad to meet you. I prefer if you call me Buffy” there are some laughs, “ Or Buff.” Some more laughs. “ Did I say something funny?” Buffy is a little put out.

“ Gee, Buffeeee” One of the girls says. “ You don’t look so ‘buff’ to me” She has a wiseass grin on her face.

“ahhh…and you are?” Buffy asks, tone a little flat.

“ Janet”

“Ah, Janet. Would you like to step up here?” Buffy asks, very politely. Maybe, too politely.

The girl stands up. She stands about 5’11”, and must outweigh Buffy by 40 pounds. It's not fat, all muscle.

Buffy stage whispers to Faith “When did we start getting amazons in here” Faith just grins, like the cat that ate the canary. She is going to enjoy this.

“ So, Janet, I guess you figure I’m a pretty easy to take down. So, what say? Wanna try?” Buffy asks, quietly. The larger girl just grins.

“Faith, gotta couple of markers?” Buffy asks. Faith nods “Great, we’ll play heart tag. It’s good for training reflex, and aim. First to mark accurately the other’s heart, wins. Ok?” Janet nods. Faith hands each of the contestants a marker.

“ Ok, fine. Faith, you say go” Faith nods, a little smile on her face.

“GO”

Buffy and Janet circle each other. Janet tries a roundhouse kick , but Buffy easily blocks it, throwing Janet a bit off balance. She quickly recovers, and comes in for a feint and punch, but Buffy blocks both.

“Come on, don’t hold back, I’m sure you can do better” Buffy teases her a little.

Janet tries a sweep, but Buffy just jumps over it. Getting a little frustrated, Janet comes in, trying to do a scissor lock on Buffy’s waist. Buffy just does a backwards flip out of the way, and Janet falls, missing the lock. She jumps back up, and approaches the slayer. She is a bit angry, and lunges at Buffy, trying to grab her arm in so she can put her in an arm twist. Buffy just uses Janet’s forward momentum, grabs her outstretched arm, and flips her over onto her back. She comes down on the Girls pelvis, pinning her, and puts the dot right at her heart.

“ Guess I win” says Buffy, smiling down at her opponent. She gets up, holding out her hand to Janet.

“ First rule . Never ever discount the size of your opponent.” Janet grabs Buffy’s arm, trying to pull her over her head. But Buffy anticipated it, grabs Janet’s arm with both hers, and brings her around in an arm twist. She dots her heart, again.

“ Second rule, never drop your guard” Buffy states. “We are done now, right?” Janet nods, and returns to her seat. She won’t be underestimating the small slayer again.

“ I should mention, girls. This is THE Buffy Summers. THE slayer” Buffy gives hard look at Faith, “ The one you have read about” Buffy just rolls her eyes.” You might not find it easy to take her down. Heck, I’m the only one who has even gotten close to it” Faith smirks. “ Blondie is kinda tough, ya know? Probably a little out of shape, but hey? Desk job’ll do that to ya” Faith is goading Buffy on.

“Oh, really Dimples? Wanna go for it?” Buffy knows what Faith is doing, but she’s up for the challenge.

“Sure I won’t hurt you, Grandma?” Faith chuckles. There are “ooo’s” out of the group of girls.

“ I think I can handle it” Buffy grins.

The two slayers match off, circling…the come together, and do punches and kicks. Both block each other effectively. Faith gets a hold of Buffy’s arm , and tosses her over her shoulder. But Buffy is back up immediately, grabs faith and gets her in an arm lock. Faith brings Buffy over her back, and Buffy is on the floor, looking up. Faith is about to bring her foot down on Buffy, pinning her, but Buffy grabs her foot and flings her over, so Faith goes flying forward. They both are immediately on their feet, circling.

It soon becomes a ballet, and the senior girls are around them, yelling “ Go, Go, Go” but it's a too evenly matched fight. One or the other will get a punch or kick in, but it's immediately answered. Finally, both slayers just stop. It was fun, but play time is over.

The girls cheer and applaud, and the slayers join hands, and make a mock bow.

“Ok, Ladies, you’re dismissed. Seeya later” Faith says, waving the students off. The girls exit the area, talking amongst themselves.

“ So, B. whatta ya think?” Faith asks

“Well, they’re gonna need some work, if Janet is typical. She is big, and strong, but she telegraphs too much, and is a bit slow.”

“Yeah, well, I deliberately had her here. I knew she would challenge you” Faith smirks, “ and I knew once you humiliated her in front of her peers, she would start working harder. She is almost as hard headed as you are, Blondie” Faith chuckles

“Hey, knock it off , Dimples. You’re pretty stubborn yourself” Buffy grins.

“ Are you gonna keep calling me that?” Faith growls, but not really TOO mad.

“As long as you keep calling me Blondie” Buffy answers.

“Ok, Granny, no problem” Faith mocks her

“ Sure Grump, gotcha” Buffy mocks her back.

“ So, Bubble brain, ta yta ya want for dinner?” Faith asks, getting into the game.

“ Whatever sounds good, Granite face” Buffy shoots back.

The two slayers leave the gym, tossing insults back and forth
