Summary: Kurt is in New York, and so is someone else.


Faith and Teri took off running, they hadn’t seen the vampire but they had senced it in their guts, that famed spidey sense. Their heads shot up in the same direction. Faith was the faster of the two but Teri was keeping up. Trailing behind them was Robin who was faster than most normal humans. Dawn was further behind having stopped to push Kurt into the elevator. When the slayers caught up to the vampires there were only two in the alley. Each slayer took one and Faith dusted hers quickly but Teri, she was new at the slayer gig, she was sloppy, telegraphing her punches and her vamp seemed to have some experience. Faith moved to intervene when Robin stepped in and distracted the vamp. Faith took a step back and admired the way her boyfriend’s shoulders rippled as he swung at the vampire. That was the reason she didn’t sense the vampire who sneaked up from the end of the alley.
“Faith, behind you!” Dawn cried entering the alley.
Faith ducked and spun kicking her leg out sweeping the scantily clad vampire to the ground. She glared up at Faith, her eyes flashing yellow. “You killed my mate! I kill you. I’ll enjoy this. I will bathe in your blo-” she never finished her sentence because while she was busy running her mouth Dawn snuck up behind her and then she was too busy exploding into a cloud of dust to continue talking. Removing that one threat did nothing to sway the vampires appearing from the far side of the alley. Dawn reached into her purse and pulled out what looked to be mace. The vampire approaching her looked at it and laughed. She pushed the button and sprayed him with holy water, mixed with mace. “Not so funny now.” She quipped with a smirk that reminded Faith of both Buffy and Spike. The action around her was moving quickly, Teri, Faith and Robin had quickly taken care of most of the vampires and some of them took off in the direction they came from, Dawn reached down and staked the vampire clutching his face which was peeling from holy water burns. Faith started running after the fleeing vampires but Robin stopped her.
“There might be a nest, we’ll get Chao-ahn and go after them tomorrow, we have no idea how many could be waiting for us.”
Faith reluctantly agreed having grown from her days of Want, Take, Have the desire was still there but she had mellowed a bit with age and was getting better at controlling her more destructive instincts.
“Where’d you get that “mace” brat?”
“Willow supplied me with holy water in breakable containers. Giles gave me mace. Xander came up with the idea of mixing mace and holy water making it multi-purpose.”
***
The next morning Faith, Dawn, Teri and Robin met with the slayer in charge in New York, Chao-ahn the Asian slayer had settled nicely into the multi cultural city. Dawn and Robin pored over a map searching for the alley where they met the vampires. Once they located it they went over Faith and Teri’s accounts of the fight, based on the information they got they deduced that the vampire’s nest must be within a 5 block radius of the alley. Chao-ahn confirmed that there had been a spike of vampire activity in that area. There was a high concentration of Russian expats living in the area and they were extremely close knit. Her watcher’s theory was that one member of the community had been turned and was proceeding to turn others as well as their friends and family. Chao-ahn and Faith made plans to take a group of newbies and some members of a crew in the city who, it seems, had been fighting vampires for some time. At this Faith was reminded of Gunn and his crew. They had a plan to meet up at noon and smoke out the vampires.
That evening Dawn snuck back into her dorm tiptoeing past Kurt’s room hoping he wouldn’t ask too many questions about her behaviour the night before.
