Chapter 4
A New Problem

"Hey Erin, come out side with me and talk ok. You need to get your 
mind off of all of this," Tara said.
"Ok."

Tara and Erin walked out side and sat on the patio chairs.

"She talks about you, you know," Tara said.
"Kat?"
"Yes, of course Kat. How did you get that scar? She never told me 
about that."
"It happened when Kat was still home. We went clubbing and this guy 
started hitting on me. Kat told him to bugger off, that I was 
taken. He called us dykes and left us alone. But we didn't know he 
was waiting for us outside. When we left we ran into him again. He 
punched her across the face, knocking her to the ground, then 
grabbed me. He took out a knife and did this. He told me it was a 
reminder, that guys like him would rape a girl like me."
"Did he rape you?"
"No. I lied when I said Kat has never taken a person's life 
before. She tackled him to the ground when she got her strength 
back. They struggled for the knife and she shoved it into his 
heart. She became so withdrawn after that. She honestly didn't 
want to kill him."
"That was self defense Erin, you know that."
"I know, but it still eats at her some times. She used to wake up 
from terrible nightmares and I would soothe her."
"Sounds like you have something in common with Willow and I."
"What do you mean?"
"Buffy and Faith have terrible nightmares, we soothe them too. 
Earlier you said `oh goddess', are you Wiccan?"
"Aye. Kind of ironic that here I am, surrounded by three warriors 
and two mages."
"I know what you mean. If this is a prophecy, I am going to 
scream. I am so sick of those."

Both girls laughed.

"Prophecy you say? I think it is, or the three sisters known as 
Fate have decided to play this upon us. This was meant to be," Erin 
said.
"Wise too."
"I try."

Tara hugged Erin and then they headed inside. Giles was already 
there. He had looked at Kat's arm and was in the kitchen with 
Faith, Buffy, and Willow. Erin looked over to the elderly man and 
nodded slightly.

"Giles was just about to tell us what that thing in her arm is," 
Buffy said.

Erin sat next to Tara and looked at Giles.

"Yes, well, it is a tracking device, as Erin explained to you all 
earlier. But it is also a controlling device. They can kill her in 
an instant. It is what the council uses for the demons they 
capture. But why would they do that to her, I can not fathom."
"Because she is a day walker, that's why. A half breed," Erin said, 
anger laced in her voice, "They were going to use her father, since 
he was a full day walker, but they decided to use her instead."
"Erin, calm down ok," Tara said.
"It's just so hard. I have to see her hurt day in day out because 
of that damned bloody council."
"It's ok, Erin. We'll figure something out, right Giles," Buffy 
said.
"Well, yes, we'll do everything in our power to help her."
"I could hack into the council data base and see if there is a 
removal process," Willow said, with a smirk.
"Is that safe," Giles asked.
"Trust me. I can hack into the school system and not got caught. I 
have hacked into the city's mainframe. I'll use so many different 
locations that it'll make their heads spin."
"Just be careful."
"As always."

Willow walked out and hooked up her laptop, using her cell phone to 
access the internet. She began doing her thing. Erin went back and 
sat on the floor next to Kat. She held her hand, and kissed it 
gently. Faith, Buffy, Tara and Giles were still in the kitchen.

"So, Kat is a half breed, correct," Giles asked.
"Yes. From what we've gathered from Erin and Kat, her father got 
into some serious trouble, so he gave his daughter to demons, whom 
just happen to work for the council for some reason. She was sent 
here to kill us, because that is what the council wants," Buffy 
stated, "But she told us she can't kill us. She cares about us, you 
know. So why in the hell does the council want us dead?"
"Because you have surpassed all of the expectations of the slayer. 
You don't work alone. You have a love life, with a powerful witch, 
or mage. That is both you and Faith. You are a great team, along 
with your loves."
"But where does this factor in Erin and Kat," Faith asked.
"Three warriors and three witches," Tara spoke softly.
"What Tara," Buffy asked.
"It was in an old fairy tale I read, about three warriors and three 
witches. They were lovers, paired off with their equal match. 
Buffy matches Willow. Faith matches myself. And Kat matches Erin. 
They used their collective powers to destroy a powerful foe. A foe 
that only one of the pairs faced before."
"Angelus," Buffy said.
"It can't be. That would mean Angel," Faith started.
"No. Angel has his soul permanently. Angelus needs a vessel, 
someone that has a weak soul, but strong body. Or a demon," Giles 
stated.
"Well at least Angel is safe," Buffy sighed.
"Quite so. You said he'd be here tomorrow night, right?"
"Yes."

Giles nodded. A few more moments of silence, till they heard Erin 
scream. Buffy and Faith jumped up and ran to the living room. 
There they saw two demons standing in the living room. Erin was 
laying over Kat to protect her.

"Excuse me, morons, get the hell out of my house," Buffy snarled.
"We will, once we have the girl," the ugly green one said, "I am 
Manix. This is my associate, Kresiaz. She is our property."
"No one is your property. In our country, slavery is forbidden," 
Faith said angrily. 
"We have a contract," Kresiaz said.
"Fuck that! She is staying here," Faith growled louder.
"And who are you to stop us," Manix chuckled.
"We, you ugly piece of shit, are your worst nightmare," Buffy spoke, 
calmly.

Oh shit, Willow thought, Buffy is really pissed off.

Buffy lunged at Manix and knocked him out the window. Faith went 
after Kresiaz, and knocked him out side as well. Buffy started to 
kick Manix in the midsection. She then flipped over him, kicking 
him square in the back. He fell forward. Faith began throwing 
punches full of anger at Kresiaz, knocking him into Manix. They 
quickly retreated.

"We'll be back slayers," Manix screamed.

Buffy and Faith watched the demons run away and then headed back 
into the house.
"Man, mom is going to kill me," Buffy sighed, as she began cleaning 
up the broken glass.
"We'll help pay for it," Tara offered.
"Yeah, not a prob B," Faith said, wiping the sweat from her brow.
"Hey guys," Willow called, from her computer, "I found something 
here on Kat."
