"Anya! I guess this means Spike and Dru brought you back to life with them?" Willow asked.
Spike nods then followed Buffy
Dru was about to join but she felt a hand on her shoulder then faced Angel" Mind if we talk?". Dru nods then accompanies him.
"Pretty much." Anya said to Willow" It was a I help them, they help me kind of deal"
Buffy got them some drinks. "Ummmm....so, you'll be happy to know we all made it out. Faith is out patrolling with Dawn and Violet right now and Angel is working with Wolfram and Hart."
"So that was what I sensed, a resurrection spell. It makes sense that I would be able to sense magic that powerful from so far away." Willow nodded.
Angel and Dru are at what used to be the ballroom of the hotel is now a combat area for the young slayers that Buffy and Co are now slaying. Drusilla is the first to speak out before Angel could get a say" I know what you're going to ask. You're wondering how I got my soul back?"
Angel nods" Do you know how that happen?" Dru shook her head" No. I don't even remember how I got into Purgatory. All I remember when I woke up was that I was wrecked with extreme guilt. There were times I've wanted to just end it but given the circumstances that was impossible
Spike laughed" So Angels turned into a bureaucrat." He took a drink then looked at Buffy to asked" When you founded out about his involvement with Wolfram & Hart how did you feel about it?"
"It was something I've picked up when I once read your book of spells awhile back. I figured it may one day come in handy" Anya responded
"A good thing you did. We're very happy to see all of you again." Willow smiled.
"Well, I didn't know much about it until he explained what the organization was." Buffy nodded. "Afterwords though....I'm going to trust that he knows what he's doing."
"Dru...As someone whose been there"
Drusilla shook her head" Concern appreciated Angel but I'm handling it."
Anya smiled"Likewise"
Xander remained silent during the whole conversation which brought Anya to attention" You're more quiet than usual"
"Just...You helped closed the Hellmouth and sacrificed your life to save someone else yet your reward is being sent into that hellhole" Xander said
"He always do. Sadly it usually comes back to bite him" Spike said" So Nibblet is following your footsteps?"
"Yeah, Dawn and the Potentials are really coming into their own. You should see her fights with Faith." Buffy smiled.
"She's back now and that's what matters." Willow said. "Now, I'm going to call Dawn and the girls back and get a celebration dinner ready. I'll leave you two alone in the meantime."
Spike quirked an eyebrow" So you and Faith are"crosses his index and middle fingers in that implying you're in a relationship gesture" Close"
Xander nods" Point taken. BTW I'd check to make sure that situation in Jersey is taken care of before you call in. Faith can get a bit cranky when someone calls her in the middle of a battle"
"You mean crankier than normal?" Anya said
Xander smiled then fist pumped her" Good one"
"In your dreams William. We're just good friends." Buffy said.
"A good point." Willow said and left to her room to grab the crystal ball for scrying.
"That's how it usually starts pet" Spike said teasingly

Shroud's House-Birthplace of The Jersey Devil
The Jersey Devil burst through the roof of the house carrying Faith in it's mouth as it flies into the air. Dawn and Violet ran outside as they see both the Jersey Devil and faith in the air. Both of them looked like they've been in a intense battle. Both are pretty battle worn with Dawn limping out of the house. Wiping the blood from her nose, which has been broken since the battle while Violet has a few nasty scratches on her face
"You damn bastard!!!" Faith cursed as she kept stabbing the Jersey Devil in the neck but it still kept biting down on her right arm
"Any ideas?" Dawn asked Violet who responded" There's always the troll hammer"
Dawn turned then went back inside the house to get it
The Jersey Devil soared into the night sky clawing at Faith who blocked it's attacks as she also kept on stabbing it.
"Ok Vi. I'm going to toss this to Faith so she can strike the monster with it" Dawn said
"Given the height you need to have a lot of arm power and a keen accuracy" Violet said then takes up the crossbow and aimed at the Jersey Devil" Going to lower it down some" she fired at the creature's wings then they managed to make it's mark and the creature starts to slowly descend. The two Slayers follow the creature and they noticed them getting closer to the lake"Now!!" Violet said to Dawn who signal's Faith then she throws the hammer to her. Faith puts the dagger in her pocket then caught the hammer then raised it above her head" Lights out you unholy bastard" she then strikes the monster with it then the two fall into the lake and landed with a loud splash
"Faith" Violet said with concern in her voice and she sees something swimming in the water. Dawn and Violet prepared themselves and they're relieved to see Faith emerging out of the water with a Troll Hammer in hand. They also noticed that her other arm is bleeding. Dawn rushed to Faith" Is it dead"
"Out of commission, permanently" Faith said then Dawn hugs her, Violet was about to join in but Faith stopped her" Save the group hugs till we finish the job. We need proof that we've accomplished what we set out to do"
"Faith. Still have your daggar" Dawn asked then Faith nods and gave it to her. Dawn takes a deep breath then dives into the lake
Nice!
