Ch.82

The reason I'd died was because I'd refused to let Faith be fed on and since I had more blood and I healed, I figured I'd survive. Apparently Angel went overboard and drained me dry before having his fit of conscience. Anyways, I'm alive, the mayor's dead and Angel's in LA. I had to explain to Joyce that there was no normal human life for slayers because we weren't human, we were slayers, a breed apart.

I told Buffy that she could try the normal college life, but it wouldn't end well to stifle her slayer heritage. I spent the summer killing vamps and demons, leaving them to think on my words while I looked for Mystic Falls and finding it didn't exist in this reality, nor did that entire species of witch/vampire creature or the werewolves. Life goes on as they say and when I found Faith in bed with Xander at the end of the summer when he'd returned, I nearly killed him before throwing her away, telling her we were through.

I dumped all the cash and her scythe in our apartment, taking only my stuff including my laptop. I left her the motorcycle to use or sell before telling Giles to tell the others I left town and not to look for me. I left, catching a bus back to Boston where I killed my step parents, half the mob and several police officers who'd been on their payroll. I slaughtered demons all over as I cut a swathe across the globe, attacking and slaughtering Wolfram and Hart's law offices when they tried making contact.

I went to war with them, bombing their buildings, burning their buildings to the ground and destroying their links to this world, severing dozens of their connections until only Italy and LA remained. I was a menace and the council was after me trying to get me under control. Italy's branch fell and the balance demon Whistler stopped me outside LA at a demon bar I'd slaughtered the patrons to.

He frowned seeing the mess before saying. "This is why we never had male slayers before now. I can't imagine what those old men were thinking making you and sending you here."

I growled and threw a bottle of scotch at his head. He caught it and poured himself a drink before saying. "Fucking Irish to boot. What in the world was going through their heads?"

I grunted. "You here for your friends halfbreed?"

He sneered. "As if these creatures could be my friends. No, I'm here to stop you from moving on LA. My bosses don't care about other places at the moment, but LA's out of the question."

I threw another bottle up and kicked it at him, moving and cutting the bottle as alcohol splashed over him in his eyes. He disappeared and reappeared across the room. "Ok, I get it. You're a slayer and you go where the demons are. Well, here's some news for you then. Demons are swarming the hellmouth in Sunnydale and the others need you."

He wiped off the rum saying it was a waste of good alcohol. He disappeared when I threw the scythe and didn't return. I pulled the scythe out of the door and went to the bikes, choosing the best one before taking the Harley Davidson soft tail. The bar burned behind me while I hesitated before heading to Sunnydale.

When I got to Sunnydale, I found the scoobies waging a war at the Initiative. I joined in and slaughtered the demons like a man possessed, saving soldiers and what few scientists that remained. I didn't stop until they were all dead and I stood before the burning wreckage. I saw Faith and Buffy across the burning building leaving with the scoobies and soldiers.

They'd seen me and knew I'd stepped in. I left through a back entrance and did a sweep before destroying the entrance and making sure the cave couldn't be used by demons ever again. I went and killed Gnarl the parasite demon before making my way to Angel's old mansion. I crashed there for the night and prepared to leave town, only Buffy and her boyfriend Riley found me on patrol when I was fixing to leave that night.

Buffy introduced you and Riley offered his hand which to Buffy's surprise, I shook. I released his hand and Buffy told me they'd heard about what I did all over, starting with Boston. I grunted and told her it was none of her business. Riley told me to watch it and I turned to him. "No offense farm boy, but you're out of your league here so go play macho with someone who can't break you in half like a Kit Kat bar."

Buffy pulled him behind her and he looked wounded at his pride. I looked to her and she told me Faith had a baby. I shrugged. "It isn't mine so it must be Xanders, go figure."

She frowned. "I'd that why you left? Because she slept with Xander?"

I snorted. "Again, it's none of your damned business and since the baby isn't mine, it's none of mine either."

I straddled the motorcycle and she sighed and stood in front of my bike. "How do you know it's not yours?"

I grunted. "Cause a little demon outside LA went on about a slayer having a brat so I beat the information out of him and did a blood spell to see if I had any ties to it. I don't so it's not mine, now move and tell Xander congratulations unless she's fucked someone else I don't know of in that time."

Buffy flinched and asked as she got out of the way. "What went wrong with you two?"

I growled. "I found her in Xander's basement knocking boots and when I nearly killed him she nearly killed me instead. I guess your friend is good enough to kill for, more power to him now fuck off, I have demons to kill."

I started the bike and she asked why I came back. I snorted. "I don't know, you were doing fine without me as it turns out. Do me a favor and don't expect me to return. This town can burn if two slayers and a steroid enhanced farm boy aren't enough."

I left them there and skipped town, heading straight to LA. Whistler stopped me again outside of town saying his bosses wouldn't like it if I went there. I told him if his bosses were willing to hire a demon then they deserve my blade as well. I drove passed him after that and right through a portal someone made, crashing into a giant icy fucking wall.
