A.N.: My Faith is a Boston Red Sox fan. Not that she'd talk about it under pain of death...

It could happen.

Four years ago, she’d never pictured herself as part of a family. She’d never expected to have close friends, to be counted on, and to be respected. To have a good boyfriend, who had a good job, who worked hard, and who really cared about people.

She’d never expected to feel like a winner. To look in the mirror and feel justifiably proud. She swept an appreciative gaze at Robin, standing in the bedroom door.

Even the most wretched past could be overcome.

“Little’s going to leave Pedro in to face Matsui.”

Faith turned the TV off.

Buffy Summers wasn’t Hatori Hanzo, but she had something to offer.

Now she knew why she’d survived that gunshot. Why she woke from the coma. Why the blade seemed so much lighter in her hand. How she could kill ninety Yakuza in nine minutes and still face O-Ren Ishii.

And now she had another reason to live.

She looked at her “axe”, a replica of the red weapon in her newest sensei’s hands. Soon, she would leave vengeance behind and pursue a higher purpose.

But not yet.

She had one more monster to slay before she could go to Cleveland.
