Repost of The Second Generation #1
Now this little thing is continuation of Path's End and Rose Tinted
World, two short stories I have done. I'm setting a few things up here
for a possible future story :) Path's End is at
http://www.mmedia.is/~cilia/short/path.htm
RTW is at http://www.mmedia.is/~cilia/Rose.txt  
Read them first, they're short and you'll get ten more minutes of read
that way :) Take care

Hiya there my name?s Willow, I know this space should be reserved for my
mom?s brooding and angst filled memories, but I?m taking over for today.
Anyways we live in this big old mansion by the sea, it belongs to
grandpa Giles, but since he?s contempt at doing the whole Holmes
lifestyle in a flat in London, we have the mansion all to ourselves. 
 
The mansion is a big old Victorian style, with a tower and those neat
windows you can use to go out onto the roof through, which can be great
if you need to make a quick an escape or get back in after curfew :-)
 
As you might have guessed I?m the adorable little Willow you have been
hearing about lately. Mom and me haven?t really bee close, but last year
when she returned from The Quest and feel the booming narrator voice in
that last part we have been doing the bonding thing. So now we live
here, those of us who remain, as mom would say in her low voice, it is
just Mom, Uncle X, and lil ol?me with a revolving cast of reoccurring
characters that are essential to every good story.
 
Things are getting fun, only way to put it, with Faith showing up and
all the excitement that follows her. It?s not easy being a
second-generation bastard slayer you know. I never met Faith, the elder
one I mean, but mom always gets this glimmer in her eye when she talks
about her, it?s the same glimmer she had when I caught her with Uncle X
on the porch a few nights ago. I know bad Willow, bad. 
 
Back to Faith Junior; she has got her mom?s body and power that?s for
sure, but the brains come from her father?s side of the family that?s
for sure, not to mention mental stability. She hasn?t been very
forthcoming about who her father is and chances are she doesn?t know
herself.
 
I have had a few encounters with her, none of them healthy for my sexual
image mind you, but still they were thrilling and exciting after a
fashion. Make no mistakes I?m not my mothers? daughter in that sense or
at least I don?t think I am? Ugh I?m sounding like my mom now right?
Well the pebble can?t fall that far from the rock now can it? 
 
One good example of my close calls with Faith is just the other day, I
think. She was coming out of the bathroom on the second floor. Wrapped
in a towel at least two sizes too small, but that?s Faith for you. Of
course I come running and ram smack into her, now you don?t knock
somebody like Faith over, but I did manage to grab her towel in last
ditch effort to safe myself. Well you are smart and creative right?
Anyways the towel of course flies of and I end up landing on my butt
staring up at this naked goddess. Now what does she do? Well after
giving me a raised eyebrow, she smiles leans over me and picks up the
towel. Giving me a close-up view and causing me to react in ways that I
really shouldn?t be reacting in. And that?s it, she walks away leaving
me slack jawed on the floor until Uncle X comes around to ask me why I?m
lying on the floor. He?s just so adorable sometimes that you forget that
he only has half a soul.
 
Yes things are getting very interesting around here and will continue to
do so for a while to come. It?s been nice talking to you though, helps a
lot, seeing that you have been through this and all. 
You good here out here Miss Maclay, more lemonade maybe?
-I?m fine Willow- 
Great, listen can we talk more someday soon, cause I think I?m going to
be needing some serious guidance and or therapy if this continues much
longer.
-You will be fine Willow-
Yeah I guess so, well good night then, enjoy the sunset, mom loves it
and says that is reminds her of Willow.
 
More guests are showing up lately, something is bound to start happening
soon. I just know it because that?s just the way things are.
