What's next?

BtVS

"Did you guys see that?"

Xander and Willow looked up from the horror movie they were mocking on the TV and looked over at Buffy who was looking out the window at the approaching dusk.

"See what?" They asked in unison.

Buffy got up from the couch and walked to the window and peered through it looking out into the coming night. "I thought... I thought I saw Faith."

Willow and Xander stood up and joined her in looking out the big bay window of Buffy's home.

"That's just what we need. A pissed off slayer with an ax to grind against us. We didnt have enough on our plate with the whole Intiative thing." Xander looked up to the orange and purple sky, "God, why do you hate us?"

"Isnt she still comatose?" Willow asked Buffy.

"Did... do we get alerts from the hospital about her? We have a plan for that, right?" Xander asked. "Seriously, do we have any kind of plan for what to do if Faith wakes up?"

Willow and Buffy looked at each other and then both of them looked up at Xander. Given their less then happy faces Xander let his head hang in defeat. "Wonderful. Seriously, gals, we need to start planning these things out. We should have a Faith plan ready to go for when she wakes up."

"Call the Watchers is a plan." Buffy answered as she looked back out the window.

"I'll call the hospital." Willow turned away from the window heading towards the phone in the kitchen. "See if Faith is awake or not."

"Call the guys we dont exactly like, who are a full day away by plane." Xander looked down at Buffy. "Thats the best we got?"

"I can always beat her down again." Buffy mock glared up at him.

"True. But that only works if she goes after us." Xander bobbed his head.

"Crap. I'll call Giles." Buffy turned away from the window.

"Willows on the phone." He reminded her.

"Mom has a second line in her home office." Buffy explained as she moved to leave the room.

"Call Anya and Tara after him, try to warn everybody who passed on movie night." Xander called over his shoulder.

"Ill try to get everybody here where its safe." Buffy nodded and sighed, "Thank god Mom's out of town buying art and Dawn's at her friends house for the night."

Xander grunted in agreement and turned back to look out the window. Reaching up he rubbed at his eyes. For half a second he could have sworn he'd seen something. An iridescent... something, like a giant soap bubble almost. And given the way it seemed to curve it suggested that Buffy's home was inside the giant iridescent soap bubble.

Blinking his eyes Xander stared out the window, his face almost pressed against the glass. He couldn't see anything now. No giant soap bubble. What even would a giant iridescent soap bubble be? Magic? What kind of magic? And why magic, it wasnt exactly like Faith was the magic type.

So it probably was just his eyes playing tricks on him. Surely that had to be it. It had better be it.

Stilllll... better safer then sorry, "Will, we might got problems."
