1.01 Life's Short

[[[ This is the first episode of my new virtual series called ``Kindred.`` It revolves around Buffy and Faith, who set off to Boston where another hellmouth is located, to find newly awaked slayers and train them. This is new to me, cause I'm used to writing in first person and having thoughts. But because you cant hear thoughts on TV, I didnt write it like that. You guys are my best audience so you get a sneak peak, and I wanted to know if people are interested so PLEASE read and review, even if its bad. If you ARE interested in this, then you can check out the website: www.kindred.cjb.net ]]]

TEASER:

Fade In:
Buffy’s Car


“Faith would you *please*, for the third time, take your feet off the dashboard?” Buffy said to her sister slayer, who had the front seat all the way back and her feet propped up.

Faith didn’t even look up from her comic book before answering, “No can do, B. The way I see it, we have a whole shitload of time left till we actually get to the hellhole, therefore I need to get my beauty rest.” She smirked a little.

Buffy rolled her eyes, “Yes, of course, your beauty rest. How could I have forgotten?”

“Obviously you don’t pay much attention to my life,” Faith grumbled. Buffy never noticed anything about her, or cared to even know, and it bothered Faith a lot.

Buffy looked over at Faith for a second, “That’s not true.”

“Not looking to have a conversation about it,” Faith said and picked up another comic book and flipped through it, planning to ignore her.

Buffy sighed and her gaze lingered on Faiths feet, which were still on the dashboard. She slowed down and then stopped, “God I hate this traffic.”

Faith mumbled something incoherent.

“What?”

“I said `Deal`. Get a hearing aid.”

“Faith what’s your problem?” Buffy said angrily. She was starting to piss her off.

Faith put down the comic book and looked at her, “Ya wanna know what my problem is? My problem is that I have to go back home to find wannabes with a girl that cant even stand my presence. Fuck, why did Giles have it this way?”

“Because he thought it would be best. And I CAN stand your presence, Faith. I don’t understand why you’re being so bitchy.” She put some pressure on the gas peddle and then stopped again, traffic was getting worse.

“Look B, just can we just NOT talk to each other this entire trip?”

“No.”

“Stop being stubborn. God, get off your pedestal for Christ’s sake. You’re not the most special one in the world anymore.” Faith took her feet off the dashboard and sat up straight.

“Yeah, and neither are you.”

“I never was,” Faith looked out the window.

“That’s it!” Buffy turned around to face Faith, pointing her finger in her face. “I’m sick of your self loathing! Its always `poor Faith, she was never as good as Buffy`. Well guess what? You were, you ARE as good as me. You’re a Slayer too, just because you didn’t come first doesn’t mean your any less of one! So just stop, okay?!” There were honking of horns as traffic started to get moving again, but Buffy didn’t move the car.

Faith whipped around, “Don’t tell me what I am, or how I am, you don’t KNOW me Buffy!”

“That’s cause you never say ANYTHING about yourself! Maybe if you just–“

Buffy was cut off by a screech of brakes, and then a car slammed into theirs.
