Uh-oh :P

Great chapter!

Buffy does like her shoes - no matter what name she is going by.
Good to see that Dawn knows to run from major demons and that the council knows how to actually kill them. I hope the scythe is handy!

loved it! hope 2 read more soon!

The threads are starting to come together. Boy is everyone in for a surprise....

haha. go dawn being active girl.

Wow! This chapter was amazing like as always! I loved the whole bit with Dawn, Pastor Jim and whatever or whoever that demon bitch was. Thank goodness Dawn was there to help save him. I wonder where they're going to go now? And will Dawn call the IWC for help?

So the Winchesters now know about Pastor Jim's church being burnt down but not about him. I wonder if he will call them and tell them that he's safe and that Dawn saved him? If he does, poor Sammy will be even more confused by her and her motives. hehe.

As always I loved the flashback with Mary and John. Buffy's obsession with shoes still lives I see even when she's "Mary". It's sad though that the rest of the Scoobies and Giles never got to see her with John and how happy he made her...

Anyways, I can't wait to read more! Thanks do much for updating!!

Ooooh...the plot thickens. It's starting to come together more and more. Great job! :)

Just wait for the next couple chapters. :D Man, I wish I could write faster. There is one particular scene that I want out there /now/.

Thanks bunches! ♥

I love this story, and I love the past couple of chapters. I can't wait to see what you do with this story!!!!!

I'm so glad to hear that!

Thanks bunches! ♥

The connections are getting closer and closer to being made all the time!!! (Quivers on the edge of my seat in anticipation.)

I honestly don't know who is going to be angriest at Joyce for not telling what she knew when Buffy lost her memory, as all of them were badly affected by it.

Who will be the angriest at Joyce... Good question. In fact, I'm not sure that I know the answer yet, actually. Especially since there will be a fair amount of anger directed at Buffy too, for keeping secrets.

Thanks bunches! ♥

Mother - Daughter Angst, Faith and little D, Faith making a *good* impression for once, kicking vampire butt and Buffy finding the name Mary strangely familiar> This chapter has it all! Hopefully Faith meeting the Winchesters will stand them in good stead, now Sam knows the IWC kills monsters too that should help with some of his paranoia. Wouldn't it be funny if Faith figured it all out first :) But I guess she doesn't have enough information.
I just hope Dawn does not find enough info to link Dean to serial killing - that would not go well.

Hmmn, Faith figuring it all out first... That would be interesting. Not likely to happen, but still very interesting. :D

Faith meeting the Winchesters will have a good impact when they meet the IWC & Sam's paranoia has definitely lessened, due to the fact that he's really confused. Good eye.

Dawn won't find the info to link Dean to serial killing herself, I can say that for sure. (She might be shown it later, but I think at that point, she'll know the truth. More of a psych tactic against her.)

Thanks bunches! ♥

Hey, am glad that you updated, I hope that you'll be able to update again soon. I can't wait for Dawn to find out about the boys, I bet she'll be shocked. Anyway keep up the great work!

Dawn is going to be very shocked when she finally works things out.

Thanks bunches! ♥

Amazing work as usual. I particularly enjoyed Faith's dialogue, very funny, very in character. Please update soon!

I love Faith. :D

Thanks bunches! ♥

OMG! Faith met John, Sam and Dean! Totally awesome surprise! I also had a giggle over Faith calling John 'boytoy'. *snorts* Too funny. Also great way of Sam finding out more about IWC. I wonder what he'll think Buffy is now knowing that the IWC themselves fight/kill demons and things that go bump in the night?

Well, too bad Dawn hasn't found anything else more about Dean Lucian yet, but fabulous twist with her going to meet James Murphy, maybe she'll learn something from him?

Interesting that Buffy feels connected to the name Mary and that she automatically answers to it. Does that mean it's possible for her memories to be coming back? Or is it just some random thing?

Anywho, Incredible chapter... I'm anxiously waiting to find out what happens next! Thanks for updating!!

Hee. Faith will never stop being Faith. 'Boytoy' is naturally a part of that.

Sam is mostly confused, but his immediate "Buffy/Dawn-->supernatural-->must be killed" train of progression has been thrown way off track. The next couple of chapters will just add to his confusion.

Dawn and Dean Lucian (& Pastor Jim) come to some sort of semi-resolution soon. I'm thinking chapter 12? (*sheepish* I need to write it.)

It is possible for Buffy's memories to come back. The answering to 'Mary' though, is because after being called by that name for so long there must be some familiarity associated with it. Now that she's being directly called by that name, it's only becoming more and more familiar. Somewhat like déjà vu.

Thanks bunches! ♥

Maybe if Jessica gets better and remembers Sam, she can be the catalyst to Buffy getting her memories back and being reunited with her three boys. Sam knows how Jess 'died', because he saw it. If he sees and believes that she survived, then he might believe that Buffy is Mary.

Good idea! You should write it. :D

Jess will play an important part in connecting the Winchesters & the Summers, but there is a different significant catalyst that will bring Buffy's memories back, so to speak.

Thanks bunches! ♥

I love the Faith/Winchester meeting. Calling John 'boytoy'? Only Faith :D
So is Faith not aging either? It said she was a young woman, and she should at least be middle-aged by now.
I'm disappointed in Joyce. Sadness. Though I have much love for Giles :P
Awesome job, I look forward to your next update!

Buffy & Faith (aka, the last of the 'Chosen' Slayers) stopped aging at around 28.

Unfortunately for Faith, she's uncomfortable sleeping with guys who are 20 to 30 years younger than her 47, and has since acquired a taste for older men. However, she's still very comfortable slinging around the label of 'boytoy'. :D

I'm kind of disappointed in Joyce too, but I'm really trying to keep everyone human. That includes mistakes (Buffy makes a couple of whoppers), and I don't think that Joyce was ever comfortable with Buffy being the Slayer. In her mind, Buffy shouldn't have to be some sort of protector against the dark at her own detriment. She believed it wasn't fair. But life is rarely fair.

Thanks bunches! ♥
