As Faith's tongue forces itself into her mouth, roughly playing with her own, Dawn can't help but let out a quiet moan of ecstasy. The dark-haired Slayer touches her in ways that is almost primal, sending waves of electricity running through her body with every stroke, and her tongue is now seductively making its way across her breasts. "Buffy..."

A jolt of pain shoots through her, but she quickly forces it away. Thousands of excuses run through her mind, and-like always-she listens to them without question.

Faith's still grieving.

I'm too much like Buffy.

Someday she'll call out my name.
