Previously“Our boss said she’s the daughter of the most powerful witch of light magic known to... Well... everyone....” Marlon blurted out.
“Yeah, he wanted the witch to perform a spell to resurrect a demon that would kill the slayers then he would be the king of the demon world....” Butch interrupted.
“but to get the witch we needed to threaten her with her daughter, but the girl’s farther hid his daughter here so we couldn’t find her....” Marlon interrupted Butch.

“So how come you never told me about your mom being all with the super powers?” Willow asked, a little disappointed Tara would keep such a thing from her. They walked arm in arm to their classes.
“I had to, this place is like a sanctuary for me, ya’know... a hiding place, I was sent here to be protected” the blonde tried to explain.
“And im just part of the ‘Tara protection squad’ I get it”
“No, Will, don’t think like that, this doesn’t change anything.” Tara tried to reassure the redhead.
“Tara it changes everything, what’s gunna happen when they find the guy that wants to resurrect the demon and you’re out of danger?....is your farther going to take you out of school and this all go back to the way they was?”
“I don’t know, Will... I’ll ask him if I can stay...”
“But what if he says no?..... Tara I can’t take getting hurt like that, when you weren’t here I was half empty, yeah I had my best friend Buffy and kinda something going on with Oz but you changed me, the smile on my face... you did that... the beating of my heart, it’s all for you. And if you leave. Im going to be the Willow I was, alone and half empty” the redhead explained, tears welling up in her eyes.
“Will, please..” the blonde tried to comfort her girlfriend.
“No, Tara, I gotta get to class”
'but I love you' Tara said to herself in her mind then
sighed, she knew Willow could be unreasonable at times, but she supposed this time her girlfriend had a good reason.
Heading off towards Gym class, she got lost in her own thoughts.

“Keep your arm up” Coach shouted “Back straight, shoulders back, honestly Faith you’ve been doing this for almost a year”
the dark-haired slayer winked at her opponent and thrust her sward forward with less force then she normally would.
Her opponent smiled sweetly and blocked the thrust, forcing Faith to take a step back.
“Faith, what are you doing, use force!” coach shouted again, taking a step forward.
The slayer tried to shut out the coaches voice so she could concentrate.
“Faith Im not going to tell you again!”
The dark-haired slayer blocked her opponents thrust and took that opportunity to jab her sward into her rib with more force than she intended.
Tara double over in pain, as Faith jumped back in surprise.
“See what you made me do, ass hole” the slayer shouted at the couch, running to Tara’s side.
“Im ok” the blonde reassured, taking a deep breath she tried to stand up, but doubled over in pain again.
“Ok, your going to the school nurse before your 'heavy with the mojo mother' kicks my little white slayer ass” Faith stated firmly, gently lifting the blonde to her feet.
Tara giggled then took a deep breath realising that laughing hurt.
The slayer shot the coach a ‘this isn’t over’ look before exiting the room.

“I don’t think it’s my mother you should worry about” Tara said jokingly, walking slowly down the corridor with Faith’s arm holding most of her weight effortlessly.
“You mean Red?” Faith said casually. She could remember the mark on Tara’s neck and the little looks they gave each other at every opportunity.
“You know about Willow and I?” the blonde asked, shocked, she had thought they had done a pretty good job with keeping their relationship a secret, but of course, mind talking helped.
“It’s pretty hard to miss, unless you’re a blonde slayer, about yay high and the ability to sniff out a demon within a 2 mile radius, but be completely oblivious to what’s going on between your two best friends” Faith mocked.
“Yeah” Tara giggled, then scolded herself as a sharp pain went through her rib.
Faith watched as Tara stiffened. “I don’t think I broke you” she said hopefully.
“Don’t worry about it, it’s a good job those swords weren’t real” Tara reassured, “besides, it got me out of gym class” she smiled.
“So, what happened between you and Will, before class?.. she looked a little upset” the dark-haired slayer questioned, changing the subject. She had noticed Willow rush off, usually the two witches lingered around each other for a while before going their separate ways.
“She was a little upset just, you know, when they find the guy who wants me, what will happen after that” Tara explained.
“Yeah, Red needs to know when, where, how and what time”
Tara nodded in agreement, she found this to be true.
“Do you want to leave school?” the slayer asked, the Faith had gotten used to Tara’s calming presence and she knew it would hurt the redhead deeply.
“No, this is the first chance I’ve had at being happy, friends, girlfriend, education, fighting the good fight, it’s more then I could have asked for” she commented. As Faith knocked on the nurses door.
“Well Blondie, if you want Red to know how much she means to you, your gunna have to find a way to give her the answers she’s looking for” the slayer advised.
Tara thought for a moment ‘she’s right, I have to give Willow answers, maybe if I call...’
“Ladies... how can I help you?” the nurse interrupted the witches thoughts.
