let me be the one to say I've really had enough

[_faith_]

I can't get it out of my brain. That girl who said she worked for Wolfram & Hart-- the one me and Oz ran into while we were patrollin' with Melaka that last time. I've gotta find out who she is and do somethin' about her. She threatened me, put her hands on me. I know I'm s'posed to be on the side of good, but I wanna make her wish she never

I come out of the office with a cup of coffee in my hand. Oz and Faith are in the lobby, talking, er, closely, and I hesitate to interupt them. Maybe I can just slip back before they notice I'm there...

[ozwolf]

I don't look away from Faith, but greet the lurking vampire anyways. "Angel." I say, nodding my head.

[vampdetective]

Gah, caught. I come all the way out, lean against the counter and set own my mug. "Hey Oz, Faith," I say, trying to sound upbeat. "How've things been?" Their discussion had looked pretty intense, and I don't know if it's anything they want me privy to.

[_faith_]

"...Interestin'," I say dryly. I dunno where to even start between the dark-haired bitch and the buildin' that was on fire where she was supposedly killin' demons. I sigh heavily, turnin' to look at Angel.

"There's a girl who seems to know Faith who's working for Wolfram and Hart." I say. "Ran into her the other night." I offer to begin the proceedings. I watch Faith as I say it, for reaction. I want to know just how riled she is.

[vampdetective]

I bristle at the mention of Wolfram and Hart. "Ran into her, how?" I ask, my voice dark. They'd been quiet for too long, and Faith's expression was looking mighty pissed off.

[_faith_]

I scowl and turn to pace across the floor. "She got my attention 'cause she pushed past us... shoved me." My face reflects my anger about that. "So I took off after her, and she somehow knew exactly who I was. Kept callin' me Faithy. Condescendin' as hell."

[ozwolf]

I don't comment, just keep watching Faith closely. Yeah...she's gonna need to be watched, I think.

[vampdetective]

My brow furrows. Stupid girl, to purposely rile a slayer, if that's what she'd done. "And you'd never met her before?" I ask. Not that it matters, Wolfram and Hart have files on all of us, I'm certain. Could be official, could be the girl's own little death wish. "Was that it? Just a few insults tossed, or was there more?"

[_faith_]

My jaw is tight as I say, "She threatened to shoot Oz... least he bit her for it. Slammed me against a brick wall was why he did it." To me that was enough.

"Nah, I never met her before," I add.

[ozwolf]

"She claimed she has silver bullets." I offer, then shrug. She didn't shoot. "But she does seem to have problems with Faith, and be well informed enough to know I'm a werewolf."

[vampdetective]

"Well, Wolfram and Hart knows all our little secrets, that's not surprising. I guess the question is, did someone put her up to it, or is she a rogue? If she's messing up their carefully laid plans, someone won't be happy over there...might help to go talk to Lilah about it." I glance at Oz, wondering if he did actually bite her. Could be a bigger problem next full moon if he did.

[_faith_]

Well, I sure as hell ain't talkin' to Lilah. All I'd need would be for her to open her fat mouth and spill about the info I fed her last summer. I stay silent, crossin' my arms and lookin' from Angel to Oz.

"Not sure walking into the lion's den is the smartest of ideas." I say. "Why don't we talk to Lorne or someone? Doesn't he have contacts? Just walking up and asking what's up doesn't seem like the thing to do. They probably wouldn't tell us anyway."
