‘Sunnydale, April 1999’
FAITH
You want me to kill her boss?
MAYOR
No, no leave the little red headed girl be
FAITH
Can’t I play with her just a little?
MAYOR
You know I don’t like to repeat myself Faithy, now be a good girl and check on our special guest
Faith walks to the door and turns as she leaves
MAYOR
Faith
FAITH
Boss?
MAYOR
Maybe just cut a little something off, you know, to tease the slayer and her friends
Faith continues through and stops outside the room Willow’s being kept in
FAITH
(to herself)
I’m so sorry
She unlocks the door and walks inside.
CUT TO.
INT – FAITHS APARTMENT – NIGHT
CONNOR
You speak to her?
DAWN
She’s still at the graveyard – she’s receiving funny looks from the early workers, I’m starting to smell ripe so I came back
CONNOR
Did you speak to her?
DAWN
I did
CONNOR
And?
DAWN
I believe in something…I just have no faith in her action plan it makes no sense to attack something that isn’t there
CONNOR
So I’m not just being a jerk
DAWN
You were totally being a jerk but within grounds
CONNOR
What do we say?
DAWN
There’s nothing we can say, as far as I can see until we see at least a small threat like another of these demons showing up, then there’s nothing we can do
CUT TO.
‘Boston, May 2005’
Faith is in the tube station as she jumps a flight of stairs and lands in a forward role shooting her cross bow arrow at Travis.
TRAVIS
Nice shot loser!
Travis snaps the bow and continues onto the very full carriage. Faith leaps through the door and boots him in the face.
Travis grabs a woman by the neck.
TRAVIS
One step closer Faith
Faith looks at the woman, the desperation in her eyes.
She flips forward and slices Travis’ throat as he snaps the woman’s neck. Travis is now distorted and Faith is able to toss him out of the train.
MARIA
Why’d she let that woman die?
ANYA
Let one woman die and do this guy some serious damage, or drown in morals and let him kill you and the rest of the carriage?
CUT TO.
‘Southern California, June 2001’
FAITH
I don’t know what to say
ANGEL
Nothing you can say
FAITH
Angel I’m sorry
ANGEL
Don’t be. She’s not your friend, you’re not really sorry
FAITH
I am, it’s just…it all makes no sense. Dawn’s not real?
ANGEL
No.
FAITH
But she felt so…I felt real connected with her, Buffy too.
ANGEL
I know.
FAITH
Does this mean another slayer’s gonna be called?
ANGEL
Not until you die
FAITH
Way too encourage suicide
ANGEL
I didn’t mean that
FAITH
Seems logical – Hellmouth with no guardian, I’m sure as hell not there
ANGEL
They have Willow
FAITH
No offence to the girl but has you ever felt a punch from her
ANGEL
She’s got some powers, they’re doing okay
FAITH
Should I break out?
ANGEL
You think I can make that choice for you?
CUT TO.
INT – FAITHS APARTMENT – NIGHT
ANDREW
Okay I’m gonna need the spare key
FAITH
No
ANDREW
Give me the key
FAITH
I don’t think so
ANDREW
Faith!
FAITH
You’re not having the key, it’s my key
DAWN
Guys you think we can focus on the absentee here
FAITH
Focused. I’ll go
ANDREW
No fair it was my idea
KORBEN
You guys are really freaking out that your twenty five-year-old friend hasn’t spoken to you for ten hours?
CONNOR
They’re close and have no lives
KORBEN
Right
DAWN
We’re not complete losers, we just sorta need her and plus she did kinda break yesterday
FAITH
So what’s the big deal we’ll just go see if she’s okay and then kidnap her to help in the apocalypse
CONNOR
There’s no friggin’ apocalypse!
FAITH
You wait, when you’re lying on the end of some sword guess who’ll be laughing
CONNOR
Obviously not me! But it’s not happening
FAITH
Yeah! You’ll see
Outside, the clouds are beginning to rotate in a spiral as the skies turn orange
CUT TO.
‘Southern California, November 2001’
FAITH
Never thought I’d see the day
BUFFY
Faith
FAITH
B, lookin’ more alive than the messenger made out
BUFFY
I’ve just seen Angel
FAITH
Did he get a happy?
BUFFY
It was strange. He told me what you said and…
FAITH
Don’t cheerlead, I wasn’t gonna do it
BUFFY
But it entered your mind that’s a good thing
FAITH
Nice to see you’ve grown
BUFFY
A good thing because it showed you’ve changed. You were willing to make that sacrifice to help my friends.
FAITH
You know me
BUFFY
I do.
FAITH
Good to see you breathin’
BUFFY
Yeah
FAITH
Not so good to be?
BUFFY
I’m coping
Buffy sits in silence
FAITH
Before you go
(beat)
Sorry about Joyce
END OF PART FOUR
‘Boston, 3 weeks ago’
Faith is sat in her living room as Jones lays across her lap. They’re watching TV as she twiddles with his hair
JONES
So wanna play asks a question?
FAITH
Does that mean you wanna know something?
JONES
Yeah
FAITH
Shoot
JONES
Why do I love you so much?
Faith freezes
FAITH
Because I’m a hot chick with superpowers
JONES
Good avoiding
FAITH
I try
JONES
Okay well my answer is this…
FAITH
Silence?
JONES
No, what we’re doing now – the non public Faith who doesn’t put up fences.
(thinks)
Okay some fences but picket, not barbed and electrical
FAITH
I’m not fort boyard
JONES
So how come we’ve never even held hands?
FAITH
I get clammy
JONES
Sure you do!
The two begin laughing as Faith feeds him pop corn
MARIA
They’re so cute together but…yeah
ANYA
Yeah?
MARIA
I get it, you don’t need to show me more. I get why she is the way she is
ANYA
And…
MARIA
I’ve seen what she’s willing to do despite what others miss
ANYA
2 so far, for your final point
MARIA
I’m going to win this with her.
ANYA
Good! Okay I have two more things I want you to see
FADE TO WHITE.
INT – MARIA’S KITCHEN - DAY
Maria looks disorientated and disturbed as she stands and heads to the door.
CUT TO.
INT – FAITHS APARTMENT – DAY
FAITH
Can we just go!
Maria walks through the door looking shocked
MARIA
Hey
ANDREW
You’re alive!
MARIA
Listen…
CONNOR
Told you
MARIA
Listen…
DAWN
Okay it wasn’t a competition
MARIA
LISTEN!
Everyone stops and looks at her
MARIA
Sit down. Shut up and listen to whatever Faith has to say
CONNOR
What?
MARIA
She knows what she’s saying trust me
Faith gives a confused but thank you smile to Maria
FAITH
Okay guys listen up…
MARIA
Wait, sorry this kinda goes back on what I said but to save you breath look out the window
Everyone moves over and stares at the blood red sky, flashes of lightning tearing through it
FAITH
Ready to listen?
CUT TO.
‘Boston, 2006’
Dawn is crashed out on Faith’s sofa. Faith comes in from patrolling and lifts her up, placing her in her bed and pulling the cover over her.
She walks back into the other room and pulls a tiny thin sheet over her, shivering but smiling.
Outside we can see the snow being tossed around by the wind, bashing on the wooden board that’s temporarily replacing one of Faith’s windows.
END.
