Defending myself against the one that I love, potentially...
The big, blond German vampire had dropped a bomb on Buffy and Faith, who had introduced themselves to me, and both had questions about how I knew about this, and also told me that they knew that I was a vampire...he had told them that, basically, they were going to repay him for him saving their lives tonight, by giving him their lives. He drove

"Hi, Justin. I'm Faith. I sorta like to ask questions later." I couldn't believe this guy. Like, we're supposed to automatically think he's not the enemy. I still held my guard up, when he was talkin' to us.
"Yes, you are right, I'm a vampire. I can't deny that. And, yes, I killed a human in front of the two of you, just now, but I can assure you that I only did it to protect the two of you. There was this plot to kill you, that I'm sure, by now, that the two of you are familiar with, judging by your vicious kick, Faith, and the gun in your hands, Buffy..."
"Aight, lets cut the bull. You're a vampire. You killed a human. Who cares if he was bad or good. He was still a human. Yet, you're tellin' me you were helping us? How do me and B know that you're not working with them? Who were those guys, anyway?"
"The German vampire, I thought, might be working with me, but he and I haven't actually had a conversation to know, but then again, I should have expected that. There ( ... )

Justin told us he had a soul. There was no way he was telling in the truth. I didn't want to believe it. Faith looked at me for answers. I looked at her with a confused face. I was looking for answers, myself. I thought he was actually here to help us, but it seems to be a joke.
"You're kidding me, right? Is this some kind of sick joke? There's only one...there was only one vampire that had a soul, and he was my ex boyfriend, Angel." I grabbed him by the neck and held him up against a tree. "Now, you're going to tell us who the hell you really are. No lies, Justin. Is that your real name?"
"Tell me that everyone is okay, the threat is over and that I'm not standing in between the two of you, looking at another vampire with a soul.""Xander! I'm so glad you're ok. We'll talk in a minute." I gave him a small smile and turned my attention back to Justin. This wasn't what I planned. I started ti believe him. The soul thing didn't make any sense. Angel having a soul ( ... )

At least I had a name for the other slayer, now.

"So, there was this kill me and B mission, huh? Why would they go outta their way to try and kill us? Obviously, they don't know what they're up against."
"Is that really how you feel, Faith? You may be strong, but in case you didn't notice, they had machine guns. Slayers can survive bullets now?"
Okay, so it wasn't the time for sarcasm. "I thought Angel was the only vamp that had a soul."Faith obviously had contempt for all vampires, and who could blame her? But still, I wasn't enjoying my time around her, and considering that I had just saved her life, regardless of how, her attitude was angering. Then the boy came up, eyeing me and standing in between Buffy and Faith and I ( ... )

"No shit. Look it, here. Justin's a funny vamp, with a soul." I looked at B and rolled my eyes. He wanted to play games. "Yeah, they had bullets, but we coulda took them." I had a hard time believin' that myself, but he didn't have to know that.
B was still in shock about this Justin guy havin' a soul. It was wicked crazy, and we didn't know if it was true.
"You're kidding me, right? Is this some kind of sick joke? There's only one...there was only one vampire that had a soul, and he was my ex boyfriend, Angel."She took him by the collar and pushed Justin against the tree. I smiled. That's what I'm talkin' about. I knew she wasn't gonna let this guy get away that easily. ( ... )

"I was attacked by a vampire foe named Rory in London. He was the former lover of one of my two sires. He was stalked by demons called the Sofilar's, who kill vampires by biting them and filling them with a holy water injection, or by staking them with their sharp fingernails. Rory set me up, the demons attacked me, I fought them off, and killed them, just defending myself, but I was bitten and instead of dying from the holy water, for some reason, I woke with a soul, and with regret over the things that I had done for a decade. I don't know who Angel is, other then by reputation."
Yeah, yeah. That's thrilling, Faith, even though seeing her after what we had done earlier was hot. But...but, who's the vampire in front of us, talking about having a soul? We all know how good that's going to turn out, if it's true, but come on, there's no way that it's true. I mean, seriously? How easy was it for a vampire to get a soul? Was it a trend or something? He only knows Angel by reputation? Yeah, ( ... )

Justin wanted to know about Angel. Faith didn't help at all. She decided to let me do the actual talking. I guess I couldn't blame her. He was my boyfriend...ex. I'm the best person to tell him about Angel. Of course, Xander had to put his two cents in. Needless to say, I wasn't very happy with him at the moment ( ... )
