A/N: This was written for the tth100. The only linking thing for these is Faith in them.
Summary: Faith gets thrown into another dimension.

Faith cursed. She'd thought Fred would've learned by now that reading from books in strange languages was never a good idea. She sighed as she looked around. Looked like Earth. Still one moon, she thought as she heard a howl off in the distance. Wolves, hopefully, she prayed as a leopard leapt out in front of her. It cocked its head to the side before it took Faith's sleeve and began tugging firmly and insistently towards the south.

"I have no idea why I'm doing this," she muttered as she followed the leopard.

They soon came out into someone's back yard. "I swear, I don't know what you are, but why are we trespassing?" she hissed, then shook her head. Why was she talking to it anyways?

"Nathaniel was probably bringing you to me. He has that way of caring about strangers," answered a voice by the back porch.

Faith looked up- into the sights of a .45 Beretta. "Now, who are you?" asked the petite female.

Faith tried to adopt as non-defensive a stance as possible, even as her Slayer senses screaming about the otherworldliness of this woman.

"My name's Faith, and I'm really not from around here!"
