madskilledRoutine's always the same. Shove a stake through their heart, ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
To say Faith is surprised is the understatement of the century. Her stake punctures heart. She can feel it. She's very into her own stake. She knows it. Yet, no crumbling to dust, no poof. If anything, the vampire hardens, his eyes permanently fixed in a state of surprise. Like, how dare this chick have the audacity to shove anything into me let alone a stake that should make me an ex body. She should need a dust pan. Or a vaccuum. Not that she ever cleans. Nah, not her place. Not that she spends a lot of her time at her room near the Los Angeles cell. She spends a lot of it at the Hyperion. Cordelia - now that she's Cordelia and not some crazy pregnant chick - has gotten pretty cool. At least tolerable. She definitely doesn't miss high school Veronica to Buffy's Betty.
Who would that make Archie?
Needless to say, the vampire collapses into Faith and she now has a body to take care of.
"Motherfu-"
But, she can't alert people to anything. She did her time. She wasn't going back.
A call to Angel means he, Cordelia, and Wes arrive on the scene. Wes inspects the body. Cordelia doesn't understand. Angel's even confused. The best they can gather is that there's some kind of spell stopping vampires from becoming vaccuum chow.
It's Wes who makes the breakthrough.
Shit. Looks like there's not only another player in town - or in the world but there has been for who the hell knows how long. How'd they miss this? New vampire species means the General gets a call. Faith excuses herself - let's be honest here, she just gets up from the conversation and pulls out her iPhone. She's never been one for fancy shit but it's easy to use. She and Robin can Face Time from - time to time and no she won't talk about that. Even if you ask.
She steps away from the group.
"Outside of Dracula, I've never heard of a vampire having a sort of thrall," Angel says, setting the book down. It's unprecedented. And dangerous for every human out there. Forget seduction. This is downright mind control.
