Trouble

Written by Nessa

Wesley, Faith, Angel, Gunn, Serafina, Airlia, Tru

"It's what's going to happen," Wesley said, holding the book out to Faith.

Faith handed it to Angel without glancing at the pages. "So... what's happening exactly?"

"The kids," Angel said quietly. "They want the kids."

"Who are they?" Faith snapped, lifting Tru up.

Gunn reached down to hold Serafina's hand. "The Senior Partners."

Airlia looked up at Faith in confusion, and Faith put her free arm around her.

"So... what does that mean?" Faith asked.

"We protect the kids. Send them somewhere," Angel said. "Go with them."

"Where?" Faith shifted Tru on her hip.

"Why are we going, mommy?" Tru asked softly.

"We need to keep you safe, bub," Faith replied. "Look, we need to sit down and talk about this, but I'd feel better about doing it here. Not at Wolfram and Hart. We're not taking those kids back there unless we have to."

The group sat down and spread out the books and papers, working out what they had to do to keep the kids safe. The conclusion at the end of the talk was to send them to another dimension.
