=====================================================================
Chapter 15 : Rescue
“He said they were moving,
driving somewhere.”
“They will not be going far.
They need him and as long as they need him, he’s safe.”
“Yeah, sure, he’s safe. He’s
with people who wanna kill him, but he’s safe. I can understand that. I know
I’d feel perfectly safe with people who wanted to kill me.” Raven stopped and
turned back at Faith. “Sorry, I make threats when I’m scared and I ramble when
I’m nervous. So sue me.”
“Don’t be nervous. They need him
to get you, but they don’t know that getting you is getting me.”
“Have you ever faced the Council
before?” Faith asked, but Raven quickly turned around and walked faster down
the street mumbling some answer, but Faith didn’t catch it.
“Time is of the essence. We need
magic.” Raven glanced up. “Come.” Faith followed her to a tall building.
“What are we doing?”
“He’s in the city, we need to
locate them before they locate you, a spell.”
“You just have a spell that will
find someone for you.”
“Absolutely. I’ve been
practicing magic for well over four centuries. Spells I’ve got.”
“And now you have a slayer,
aren’t you happy?”
Raven grabbed her arm. “RESPECT
IS NOT TOO MUCH TO ASK CHILD.” She growled before letting her go. “Come.”
*************
“TELL US WHERE SHE IS!” The man
screamed, striking him again.
“BLOODY HELL! I TOLD YOU I DON’T
KNOW!” He growled back against the pain of his cracked jaw. Spike wished the
vampire healing would kick in, because it hurt like hell. “You think a slayer
just goes around telling demons where to find her? What kind of an idiot slayer
would do that?” He looked at them. “Besides Slutty.” He quickly added with a
smirk, which earned him another blow to the head. “You knock me unconscious and
I swear I’ll find your families and rip each and every one of their beating
hearts from their bodies.”
*BLOODY HELL!*
*Spike?*
*Faith? I
can’t stay awake much longer. It hurts too much.*
“SPIKE!” She
screamed and as she did a name flashed through her mind. She opened her eyes,
stunned and looked to her right.
“What?”
“They’re
hurting him. He’s in pain. We have to find him.”
“Where are they?”
“I don’t know,
but when I screamed, I saw the letters P-5-4. What’s that?”
“It’s the gift
coming out in you Faith. It can only be one place I can think of. Pier
fifty-four. Come.”
*************
“Wakey wakey William.”
Spike slowly opened
an eye, the other one was covered in his dried blood and he couldn’t open it.
The guy was holding a pitcher of water. *Holy water. Oh bloody hell.*
“Let’s see if
we can make you scream.”
“I lived with
Angelus for fifty years, I don’t scream.” Spike stated.
“Still, I’m
curious as to how much you’re willing to suffer for the whore.”
“THAT’S IT!
LISTEN HERE YOU FUCKER,” Spike pulled on the chains more, but they’d dislocated
his shoulder and it hurt. He howled in pain.
“That’s what I
wanted to hear. Now let’s see if we can make you beg.” The man said.
“I don’t think
*that’s* gonna happen.” Faith said walking into the warehouse. She looked over
at Spike and practically fell down in tears for him. Their eyes met and she
wanted to run to him, but Raven had warned against that.
Almost
immediately the three council guys rushed her and she ducked and kicked as much
as she could. They were strong. She kicked one across the room quickly while
the other two attacked her. “FAITH WATCH OUT!” Spike shouted.
She glanced
behind her and the third man had pulled out a gun. She turned quickly and threw
her hands out in front of her. “NOOO!!!” She screamed and the man dropped to
the floor. She was stunned for a second, but she took the chance to wipe out
the other two guys, but they weren’t as easily defeated. She knocked one out
and turned toward the other, but all of a sudden he stopped and walked away.
“Huh?” She said.
Raven walked
in behind him and slid her arms around his waist. Faith looked at the man’s
eyes, she was controlling him, making him walk away. Faith saw the moment she
released him and she heard Raven whisper, “We meet again dear Charles. It’s
been so long, so much has happened. You tried, I will grant you that, but I
succeeded where you failed. She’s mine. You won’t ever try her life again. Do
you understand?”
“Completely
Raven.” She released the man and he ran out the door. *How had he known her
name? How did she know his?*
“Bunny...”
Spike whispered. Faith ran to his side.
“Baby, are you
okay?” She asked him as she cradled him in her arms, hoping it wasn’t the last
time. She’s never seen so much blood before.
“I love you
Bunny.” He whispered before the darkness over took him once more.
Chapter 16 : Nurse
Faith looked
around for Raven, but she was gone. *That leaves it to me. Thanks a lot.* She gently
picked him up. Faith didn’t know where she could go. She couldn’t go back to
the hotel but wasn’t sure if she should go back to Raven’s. “Baby, I don’t know
what to do.” She whispered. “I’m gonna make you better. I just don’t know what
to do Puppy.”
“You could
kiss me.”
“SPIKE!” She
looked down and he was looking at her. She kissed him softly. “Where should we
go? Can you walk?”
“I think I can
Luv, just put me down.” She put him on his feet and wrapped her arm around his
waist as he leaned on her.
“What should
we do?”
“Find a place
to sleep.”
“We can’t go
back to the hotel and Raven left, so I’m thinking she doesn’t want us there.”
They limped
out onto the main road and she spotted a motel across the street that they
stumbled to. A few minutes later they were in a room and she helped him lay
down on the bed. “What do you need Baby?”
“Food and
you.”
“You got me,
you never have to worry about that. I’ll be back in a little bit.”
“Where are you
going?” He whined.
“I’ll be back.
You just sleep.”
*************
Thirty minutes and one
kidnapping later, she returned with a bag of bandages and the salesclerk.
“Baby? Wake up.” She locked the door and dragged the boy with her to the bed.
“Spike?”
He opened his eyes and looked up
at her. “My Angel!”
“Yeah, whatever. You hungry?”
“Yes.”
“Then sit up.” She helped him up
and then held the boy in front of him. “Bon appetite. Drink up.” Spike vamped
out and was at the man’s neck in an instant.
His jaw hurt. It REALLY hurt,
but he was too hungry not to feed. He pulled away when he’d taken all he could.
“Done. Thanks Luv. I appreciate it.”
“I know. Now sit back, I’m going
to bandage you up.”
“Okay. Be gentle with me Luv.”
“I guess I should get rid of the
body first though, huh?” She opened the window and shoved him out.
“You’re a woman after my own
heart Luv.”
“I have your heart already,
don’t I?”
“Absolutely.”
“Good.” She started applying the
bandages.
“WAIT!”
“What?” She asked.
“If you’re going to play nurse,
you should strip.”
“Why is that?” She asked
smiling.
“Because nurses dress in white,
but you don’t own white, so I’ll settle for your skin.”
“Oh, okay.” She quickly divested
herself and sat back down to feel his hand inching around her waist. “I thought
you were an injured vamp.”
“Oh, I am. I just... I was
just... ah... I was just making sure you were warm enough.”
“Right, well, I’m fine.”
*************
After she’d bandaged him she
curled up next to his body and they had fallen asleep. The sun crept in through
the window and she jumped off the bed and lunged for the curtains. She looked
over at the bed where he was. “My bad.” She shrugged.
“Sokay, no harm done.”
“How are you feeling?”
“It hurts all over.”
“Hungry?”
“For you.”
“Sorry but injured vamps DON’T
get lucky.” He whined at her. “But I think a bath would do you good. You should
always clean your wounds.” She stated.
Twenty minutes and much whining
later, he sat in the tub of warm water. She climbed in behind him and pressed
her breasts to his cool back. “How’s that Baby?” She whispered in his ear.
“Good Luv.” Faith went about
washing his chest and back. She slid the soap down his arms and neck, washing
his blood away. “I can’t reach your stomach.” She said as she climbed out and
kneeled in between his legs.
His tongue snaked out to catch
her nipple while she washed his stomach and legs. She felt his fingers creep
around her waist and down to grasp her buttocks. “Spike... you’re injured.”
“I can do a little Luv. Please?
You’ll enjoy yourself.”
“I’m almost done getting you
clean, but there’s one more place I have to clean.” She said lasciviously as
her hands slid down his thighs and grabbed his cock and balls. “I want all of
you clean, but look at this water. It’s all bloody.” She pulled the plug and
the water began to drain exposing his erection. “Looky here, Spike gets off
from getting clean.”
“What can I say?”
She giggled and kissed her way
down his chest to his cock, which she licked clean. He moaned and growled as
she engulfed his entire length. He entwined his fingers in her long dark hair
and guided her mouth onto him. Her fingers played with his balls and slid under
his ass. “Puppy? Will you let me taste you? I need it, come for me baby.” She
whispered before lowering her mouth back onto his shaft. She scraped her teeth
over his entire length and slid a finger inside his anus causing him to scream
and shoot his load into her thirsty mouth. She sat up licking her lips after
drinking his offering. “Thanks Baby. Now you’re all clean.”
*************
Their legs and arms were tangled
and she had her head gently on his chest. Their fingers were interlocked over
his stomach. “I was so scared. I thought I’d never see you again.”
“I just wanted you to be safe
Faith. That’s all that’s important to me.”
“When I saw you lying on the
floor bleeding and broken I felt so sick inside.”
She’d told him about the ritual
Raven had performed and the magic she now possessed. “I know. We just have to
be more careful. We have to keep our eyes open. You never know when they’re
gonna come back for us Pet.”
“I know. Maybe if we just move
around? We could get that stuff Raven wants and then go see the world.”
“Sounds perfect Luv.” She kissed
his chest before falling asleep and he soon followed suit.
*************
She heard something outside the
door. She opened her eye and glanced at the clock, three in the morning. She
kissed his chest and sat up glancing around. The room was still but she heard
the clinking again. She looked to the door and the handle was moving. “SHIT!”
Just then Spike woke up and the door was kicked in. The window broke and ten
men entered the room. Faith tried to fight back but was grabbed by five of
them. She watched in horror as one approached Spike being held down by four of
them.
Behind her, she heard laughing
and when she looked back, Raven was standing with Charles, the Council guy. The
two were laughing. She turned back to Spike and the man raised a stake above
Spike’s chest and she screamed in horror as it sunk into her lover’s heart. She
watched helplessly as he crumbled to dust on the bed they’d made love on.
“NOOOOOOOOOO!” She screamed and sunk to the ground crying.
