The witches, the Nemesis and a bunch of Slayers.

Hermione woke up with a jolt. She turned her head to look at the red figures of her alarm clock. 4.12am.

‘This same nightmare again...God it’ll never stop!’ She sighed and put her head back on the pillow. The black orbs, the sword, corpses...Seena. It was always about Seena. Her whole life was about Seena. Hermione closed her eyes and remembered the first time they had kissed. The feeling of fear, unknown and yet warm. The Nemesis was all that, scary at first, mysterious, but then if you scratch the surface, you find the kindest heart that ever existed.

‘she was all that...and I destroyed her.’ Hermione felt a tear rolling down her cheek. She felt an arm moving around her belly, and the warmth of a sleeping body pressing against her. The young witch felt bitter and guilty. Yet she couldn’t forget the amount of pure hatred in Seena’s eyes in that hall. Six months ago.

‘I need to sleep..’ she told herself and pulled back the sheets on hers and Willow’s naked bodies.

In the corridors of the Academy, Buffy was wandering and checking that all the slayers were back from patrol. And it seemed that only one slayer was missing. Buffy stopped in front of Faith’s door and opened it, hoping that the Rogue Slayer would have returned from patrol since her last beast from room to room. But the brunette slayer still wasn’t there. Buffy sighed and sat on the girl’s bed. Faith’s room had always been quite spartiate. She had very few things with her. Leather pants here, stakes there, a cd player, the brunette wasn’t very materialistic. Yet, Buffy noticed two pictures by the bedhead. One was a photo booth shot, very old and slightly torn. The Chosen Two, back in high school, before the whole Mayor thing. The blonde didn’t know Faith had kept it ever since.

“I miss this...I miss us...” She thought out loud and remembered that night when everything went bad. The dance, the demon, Angel, the mistake. Another sigh, deeper this time. Buffy put the picture back and looked at the other one. It was more recent. A photograph of Faith, Kennedy and Seena making faces to the camera. Seena. Six months is a long time.

‘Everything had changed since she left...’ Slayers were disappearing every week and never reappeared, they all had to be very careful, and there was a curfew, because of Sigma’s threat. Hermione was leaving at the Academy with Willow and was part of the Scoobies. Kennedy had left, unable to deal with Willow being with someone else. And Faith...

“What are you doing here?” the brunette said coldly, entering her bedroom. Buffy jumped a little and looked up at the brunette, quickly replacing the picture back on the bed table.

“I was worried about you. Where were you?” Buffy replied softly. She studied Faith’s body from top to toe. The Rogue slayer was hurt, she had several deep cuts and bruises. Her white top was stained with blood.

“I’m five by five, B.” She took off her top and threw it to the trashcan. Buffy watched her, without saying a word, as the brunette was making her way to the bathroom.

“Am gonna take a shower.” Faith muttered and closed the bathroom door behind her.

A knock on the door.

“Damn, what fuckin’ time is it?...” The Nemesis mumbled and glanced at the alarm clock. ‘You’re fuckin kidding me...’ she stood up, put on some underwear and a top and opened the door.

“What?” A demon was standing in the doorstep, eyes glued on the floor.

“ Mistress! I’m sorry to bother you, but Mr S. wants to see you right now.” The demon said weakly.

“No way, I need to rest! Tell him I’ll come when I’m ready.” Seena replied angrily.

“But Mis-”

“Go!” the brunette shouted and slammed the door. She turned around to look at the two beauties lying on her bed, awaken by the noise.

“Hey baby, come back to bed...” one of them mumbled.

“I’m coming.” Seena replied casually, taking off her clothes.
