"That sounds ... good," I said quietly and looked at Cordelia. Yeah, I was pissed at her, but as long as she wasn't bait, then I was ... fine. I mean, what if something happened to her and then Angel got back and he had to deal with that too. I looked from Cordy to Spike and got up slowly, then looked at Faith, not wanting to ask her for help, but ... I needed it, just for now. Or maybe I just needed to talk to someone that wasn't going to sugar coat anything, that was going to tell me how it is and I couldn't get that from them right now, besides, I had to bathe and I didn't really want Cordelia in there with me and Spike ... not right now.

"Faith?" I asked quietly and looked at her. "I need um," I swallowed and shrugged, "Can you help me?" I asked her and nodded toward the bathroom. All she did was nod and then there was a look at Spike, and I nodded before walking slowly to the bathroom.

I got to the bathroom and winced as I started to take my clothes off, took me a minute, but I did get them off and I decided to wait for Faith to come in to do the rest for right now. I should be good in a few hours and then we can do what we need to do and get Angel back. Or kill Angelus. One or the other, I wasn't sure which one I wanted. No, that was a lie, I mean, Angel has to come back, this is his show and ... yeah.

Letting out a breath, I looked down at my body before getting up and looking in the mirror. Some of the bruises had faded, but I still had marks from where he stabbed me and the bite mark. My eyes watered up and I had to look away. This had to work, we all had to get together to take him down, but it seemed we were all upset at eachother. We had to get over that and just ... do it.

I heard a knock on the door and then it opened and there she was. She closed the door behind her and set the towels down before going over to the bathtub and turning the water on, letting it fill up. I held my arm up and she helped me in.

After a few minutes, I looked over at her, wondering what happened to her with Angelus, wondering if we were actually going to take him down. We had to, we were Slayers, but he already kicked our asses once, was going to kill me and I'm sure he'd done the same to her.

"How the hell are we going to do this? I mean, I know how ... it's just ... how, you know?"
