My Immortal (short)
(fpov)
The rocks hide her from my sight. At the moment the entire roof of the cave falls in...and Sammy is gone from me. Gone forever.
I can't possibly describe what I feel. I'm just a body,a lifeless body,because the only reason I had to live for is under tons
of jagged rock now,dead because she wanted to save me.
My immortal is gone...forever.
(npov)
"Faith you have to move!" Buffy shreiks into the ear of the catatonic girl's ear. "Faith!" she gushes,the walls of the cave are
starting to fall in on them as well. "FAITH!"
Faith turns away painfully slow,tightens her grip on Buffy,sprints through the corridor at illegal speed,dodging hunks of rock the size of minivans.
"Watch out!"
Faith keeps going,simply side stepping the house sized rock. Up ahead there'a a faint light,just around the bend is the exit.
Putting forth the last of her will,Faith uses the bend to launch off of the wall. Just as they're out of the cave the rest of it
towers down on itself. A wall of dirt rises heavily,only the sound as witness as to what's happening...
Buffy coughs,clearing her lungs of the dirt,"Faith?" she looks around frantically,rubbing her eyes full of dirt. "Faith where are
you?"
"Buffy?" she hears a familiar voice from somewhere behind her.
"Willow? Ken? I'm over here! I can't find Faith." She calls out.
"What happened?" Willow's voice is full of concern.
"Cave fell in."
"Oh my goddess are you alright?"
"I think I broke my leg. Willow I need to find Faith."
"Hold on Buffy," Ken's voice is matching Willow's. "We can't see shit. Dirt has to clear out a little bit."
"Okay." she responds,happy as hell when she hears a small choke and cough about three feet behind her. "Think I can crawl."
Getting on a knee and foot she slides around the dirt,her hands on the ground to feel for anything that might be human. A sticky
moistens her hands,she doesn't know whether to be happy or terrified. Feeling along the wetness she ducks her head and sees a not
so good sight. Faith is curled on her left side,her leather brown leather jacket torn and bloody across her back. One wound in
particular catches her attention. A long gash around two inches wide and very deep is running from her neck on the right side all
the way down to her wrist.
"Faith?" Buffy crawls the rest of the way and sits down,flipping Faith very slowly stomach up into her lap,cradling her upper
body in her lap. Her face is bruised,dirty,and her silent tears are running down into the streaks in her neck. She's shaking so
bad it hurts her leg,but worst of all are her dull lifeless eyes,the eyes of the Faith she met years back in SunnyDale,the cold
hard eyes of the Faith she prayed never to see again. "Faith? Talk to me?" she pleads,crossing her wounded arm over her chest to
keep from hurting it further.
"Buffy!" Kennedy comes running to her side,her eyes narrow,"what happened?" she's staring at Faith,she doesn't want to find out,
but there's only one thing that can make Faith. "Where's Sam? She was with you."
"Kennedy." Willow say apprehensively.
Faith chokes back a sob,instead she buries her face into Buffy's chest,crying there silently. Buffy rocks her gently,smoothing
her hair away from her face and cooing softly in her ear. And for once in her life,Faith doesn't care who is watching,she's only
human.
"It's okay Faith,we'll...we'll find some way to get by. Just when everything looks bleak something always makes the day bright
again. We'll...find a way." Buffy tries not to let the sorrow in her voice show,but it's close to impossible. At first she hadn't
known it,but now,she had lost a really great friend.
It seemed forever that she sat there,rocking while Faith cryed to the point of exhaustion then she simply must have fainted in
her arms. "I think we should get her to a hospital." Willow suggested pointing at her back and arm.
"Yeah. Buffy too." Kennedy agreed,taking off in a gallop to get the car.
"Buffy?" Willow called for her attention,Buffy turned puffy eyes to her. "Is she...really-really dead?"
"She's gone Willow."
Willow nodded understandingly,"Do you think...Faith will ever be okay again?"
Buffy looks over her sleeping friend,she looks so normal in her arms,so frail,so vulnerable. "I don't know. Only time will tell."
The rocks hide her from my sight. At the moment the entire roof of the cave falls in...and Sammy is gone from me. Gone forever.
I can't possibly describe what I feel. I'm just a body,a lifeless body,because the only reason I had to live for is under tons
