Buffy and Faith were on their usual patrol, but tonight the two hunters had become the hunted. They had en-counted a demon that could multiply itself once it had been killed. There was now ten of the same demon running after the slayers.

"We have to keep going Faith" Buffy called to the brunette slayer who was beginning to slow down her pace.

Faith narrowed her eyes at the blonde slayer. "Screw that B we need to kill this bastard"

Buffy rolled her eyes. "Yeah I think we tried that, a number of times! Buffy sounded pissed.

"So your master plan is to hide, that ain't my style!" Faith spat back.

"Yeah? Well staying here and being killed isn't mine!" Buffy replied.

Faith ignored her and ran towards the demons coming towards them. Buffy ran after her but was pushed back by a force field. She punched it with her hands, but it was no use. Buffy's eyes widened as she watched the demons circle around Faith. The demons morphed into one being. Buffy screamed as the demon stabbed Faith in the stomach.

Tears ran down Buffy' face as her fists pounded on the force field keeping her held back. "NOOOOOOO FAITH!" she screamed as she looked at Faith's lifeless body staring back at her.

Buffy bolted up in bed. It was just a dream. Buffy could feel tears down her face and her body dripping with sweat. She had never had a dream that felt so realistic. What did it even mean? Was Faith in danger? Was the force field a representation of a part of Buffy that was scared of losing Faith?

Buffy jumped out of her bed and pulled on a pair of jeans and a jumper. She then made her way out of the house through her bedroom window. She had to see Faith. What is something had happened to her?

With hesitation Buffy knocked at Faith's motel room door. "Just a minute" Faith called from inside. As the door opened Buffy was met with a slightly under-dressed Faith. She had a small black towel around her waist and another her neck just covering her breasts. "Hey, what's up B?" Faith said casually.

Buffy felt uncomfortable. "Oh...I...um...you want me to come back...later...tomorrow...it can wait"

Faith smiled at Buffy. "Its cool, come in" Faith replied. Buffy nervously stepped into the room trying to avid eye contact with Faith. "You want a beer?" Faith asked.

"I'm good thanks...I...um...there...was...tonight...and you er..." Buffy couldn't speak, she couldn't divert her gaze from Faith.

"While were young B" Faith sat on the edge of the bed and pulled on a vest top. Buffy's eyes widened as she saw Faith's breasts for a matter of seconds. Buffy turned away as Faith removed her other towel.

Faith smiled. "So what's up? Apart from me making you feel uncomfortable"

Buffy smiled slightly. "It's probably nothing, I just had a dream, um, about you"

Faith cocked her eyebrow. "Oh? Having fantasies about me now are we?"

Buffy rolled her eyes. "God no! I...there was this demon, it killed you and I couldn't do anything, I'm not sure if it means anything. There could be something out there, it could be coming after you, after us" Buffy rambled on.

"Geez B relax it was a dream, doesn't mean it's gonna happen. Believe me I know" Faith stood up from the bed and pulled on a pair of boxers. She was referring to the amount of dreams she had recently been experiencing. Her and Buffy.

Buffy turned to face her. "But...this dream, Faith it was so realistic. What if its a prophecy? What if its a message?" Buffy was panicked.

"What if just you chill for a minute? Your always on edge. So you had a dream, I died. Oh well. If we see this demon for real, we kill it and then I dunno, we party?" Faith lit a cigarette and walked over to Buffy.

"This is serious Faith!" Buffy nervously stepped away from Faith.

"That all you came to tell me? That some demon, who probably doesn't even exist is gonna come get me?" Faith raised her eyebrows at Buffy.

"Oh just forget it" Buffy turned to leave but Faith put her arm out and stopped her.

"It's just a bit dramatic don't you think? You could have rang or maybe dropped it into conversation tomorrow, but you come all the way down here in the middle of the night..." Faith looked confused.

"What you getting at Faith?" Buffy looked up and down at the brunette slayer who was beginning to get a little to close for comfort.

"I think you know B" Suddenly Faith's lips were on Buffy's. Buffy pulled away. Her hand shook as she placed it on her mouth were Faith's lips had been. "What the hell Faith?" Buffy shouted.

Faith was lost for words. Had she really just kissed Buffy? What the hell was she meant to say now?

Before Faith could open her mouth, Buffy spoke. "I have to go...I have classes tomorrow...um...bye"

Buffy turned and left the motel room abruptly slamming the door behind her.
