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

I can tell you about Angel. He killed my best friend and my girlfriend, and he's done both very recently, ruining all of our lives. You see, whatever your name is, we don't like vampires in these parts. We kill them. Faith, Buffy, you are slayers, he's a vampire, once again, I think it's clear what needs to be done. This soul thing is a smokescreen. He's a demon. Demons lie."

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.

"Xander!" He looked at me with a glare. "Let me handle this, ok?" I sighed and looked over at Justin. "Angel's my ex-boyfriend. He was cursed with a soul one hundred years ago. Before that, he was the most vicious vampire in Europe. He came, here, to Sunnydale to help me. Long story, short...we fell in love. We made love, and then he turned evil. We all found out about the "happy" trigger to the curse. My friend Willow managed to re-ensoul him. I killed him and sent him to hell." Justin looked down at me. "Recently, he's been sent back from hell. How? I don't know. He's killed my best friend and turned our friend Cordelia, all in the matter of two days. We can't find him. I-I don't think he's in Sunnydale at the moment."

Xander and Faith were looking on impatiently. They probably wanted me to dust Justin, but there was something about him that held me back. "Look, we're not going to kill you. It's just a bit of a shock that you have a soul, too. In the prophecies, it was always believed that Angel was the only vampire with a soul. But, I guess you wouldn't be in the books if this happened to you, recently." Way to stay cool, Buffy.

I was still confused as to who Justin was, and why he was here. There were too many things going on at once. My mind wasn't all here. I wanted to know everything about Justin. And, I had a funny feeling that we could use his help. I'm not sure if Xander and Faith were on the same page.
