Postby ambersagoddess » Sun Dec 05, 2004 2:22 pm

Hey all! It's Rei, and Chris and I are starting, yet another fic. I know I know, there are so many others we haven't finnished. But this one's a good idea, not that our other ones aren't, but...nevermind.

Cats and Bats is the title for this one, and you'll soon find out why. Of course, it's a terrible title, so please, inform us of a better one.

On On Vandersexxx!

Disclaimer: we don't own Batman, Catwoman, or Buffy characters. Blah blah.

Rating: R for now, violence, language. Knowing us, it'll probably be NC17 later.

Cats and Bats Chapter 1



Eighteen years had not been kind to Tara Maclay. She and her mother didn’t have the most comfortable of lives, but they had got along ok. That all changed a year ago when her mother had died. Many girls in Tara’s position would have turned to the streets where they would sell their bodies to those who just did not care about the girls’ situation, they just wanted a fuck, a little activity while they told their wives that they were on business trips.

Tara was not many girls however. She was currently working two cleaning jobs, including one for ‘Rosenberg Enterprises’ chaired by the enigmatic young billionaire, Willow Rosenberg. However, even with the generous wages that the richest company in Gotham could afford, she still struggled to make ends meet for her and all that she now called company, a black and white cat she had dubbed Miss Kitty Fantastico and her companion Faith.

That was until she had become Catwoman.

The suede bag falls onto the flowery comforter of Tara Maclay’s bed. A hand reaches down and shoves it onto its side, spilling out its contents. Thousands of dollars worth of jewelry is spread out by an inquisitive hand.

“I see you’ve been busy.”

“It passes the time.”

“You’ve been on the news again.”

“That’s not unusual.” The TV flickers on.

‘It appears that the masked woman calling herself Catwoman has struck again. This time stealing over eight-hundred-thousand dollars worth of jewelry from a downtown jewelry store. If you come in contact with Catwoman, please contact the authorities immediately, she is extremely dangerous.’

Tara smirked.

“Can I have this, Tare?”

Tara looked over her shoulder. “I got it for you.”

Faith held up a large diamond F. The brunette draped the heavy chain around her neck. “Bling-blingin’, bitchin’, this is the shit, Blondie.”

A dark voice came from the window. “That’s great, but Tara’s got big problems.”

“Angel.” Tara didn’t even turn from her position facing the TV.

“I just came from that store you broke into. I saw that scrawny little bat freak.”

Tara tried a ring onto various fingers, finding it fit best on her index.

Faith flopped on the bed, Miss Kitty joined her. “You worried about bat-boy?”

“No.”

Angel stepped inside, landing on the carpet below the sill. He ruffled the mewling kitten's ears. “I fought him a while back. He’s weak, fights like a girl. He’s got weapons though, high tech stuff. Guy knows what he’s doing.” He grabs a gold ring and slips it on his thumb. “Be careful.”

The girls watch Angel jump from the window, they didn’t hear him land.

“Damn vampires, freak me the hell out.”

“Touching.” Tara turned the TV off.

Batman had driven into the Batcave with a sigh, another night, another burglary committed by the mysterious Catwoman. A middle-aged man with glasses walked over to the Batmobile as the shadowy figure stepped out. “It was quite a night I heard.”

Batman sighed, “you can say that again Giles, that woman is good.” Batman removed his cowl to reveal a feminine face fringed with red hair. Batman reached a glove to his throat and removed a patch, when he spoke again, his voice had changed into that of a woman. “I’ll crack it though, no need to worry about that.”

Willow Rosenberg reflected, not for the first time, on what had brought her this far. Her parents had been killed by a man who went only by the name of Angel. Turns out that Angel wasn’t an ordinary run-of-the-mill crook, he was a vampire. A scared teen of 18, suddenly orphaned, Willow had stumbled into a cave, a few bats had flown at her, scaring the Hell out of her, that was when an idea was born. Being the heiress of a couple of billionaires, and using the knowledge of a family friend, Rupert Giles, Willow had sculpted the identity of Batman for herself. Batman because people are more intimidated when they are fighting a man. Willow’s armor was chunky, to give her the build of a man (down to ‘big pecs’), but had cleverly been designed to look form fitting. Made of a material designed by Rosenberg Enterprises, the suit was light and allowed plenty of maneuverability, then there was that yellow belt that had soon become known as The Utility Belt.

Willow Rosenberg had become the Dark Crusader, the ultimate vigilante. She had tracked down Angel and they had fought, Angel with brute strength and Willow with the gadgets she used her money to have built and her smarts. Eventually, Angel was incapacitated and imprisoned. That was two years ago, but her lust for vengeance had not been satiated, so, with Gotham under constant threat from forces that the police could not control, by night, she became Batman once again.

Giles’ voice brought her out of her revere, “well I doubt that you will be able to do anything about her while you are tired, and you do have that business function tomorrow, maybe you should sleep.”

Willow nodded her head, “You’re right, as usual, Catwoman can wait for now.”

Decapitated, was changed to Incompacitated, because it didn't make sence, Chris' mistake.



and a side note from chris : 'This WILL be finished as will any and all other fics on the board, I just gotta wait for my muse to come back from vacation.'

Cool! Tara as Catwoman... it may not be the biggest leap of the imagination to say that I love the idea of Tara as Catwoman (hence, y'know, the Catwoman Tara avatar and all). I like how you've got Angel in the story as well, I like Angel when he's bad (and I never much cared for the Joker, so it's all good). I take it Willow doesn't know Angel's out and about yet?



I'm really looking forward to more of this one - I know zilch about the comics but I adore Batman Returns, and the complexities and contradictions of Catwoman's personality in that film. I'll be interested to see how she (in her Tara incarnation) gets on with Angel, she always had an interesting take on good and evil - I kind of saw her having a very strict moral code, but skewed differently to everyone else. Something tells me this Catwoman won't stay civil with Angel for long once his murderous side is on display.



Is it okay if I host this one on Looking-glass? I've already got the Catwoman half of the title graphic done :)

Great topic for a story! I was also a Batman returns fan and the reason was Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman. Best Batman movie so far, nice and dark. In the movie you feel for Catwoman because she gets screwed over bad (big fall out of a window) and want's revenge. Then love gets in the way and the confusion starts. After reading only one chapter i allready have the same symphatie for this Catwoman. Times have been tough for Tara and i cant really blame her for taking a wrong turn. I am hoping they will help each other heal. Ofcourse i am also hoping for a nice hot kiss like the one in the movie ;) Great start!

Hey all, it's the other guy behind the story, yeah, me, cool.



Anyways, uni sucks at times, but i do have an Afterburn update nearing completion (man, the bikes go at the speed of sound, you'd figure it would be updated by now :p )



So, here ye go with chapter 2.



---



Chapter two



“If there is no other business…” Willow had been ready to close the meeting which had held little more than to go over the company’s current fund and stocks.



“Well, actually there is one, if I may.”



Willow looked to her left and saw the owner of the voice, “yes Mr. Meers?” Warren Meers was probably the one member of the board that Willow flat out didn’t like, it was nothing to do with the fact that he doubted that an eighteen year old could run her parent’s company, there had been doubts from people all around the table. This, Willow conceded, was a natural reaction, but there is a difference between merely doubting the capabilities of a teenager and going out of your way to disrupt said teenager in the day to day running of the business.



“I’m more than a little concerned about the image this company is receiving, what with your…flings.”



A low hiss of disapproval spread across the table as the other board members looked at Willow, while the news that Willow preferred the intimate company of females rather to that of males did cause a stir, no one had ever questioned that this made her any less adept to lead the company. “My flings, Mr. Meers? I’m afraid that you will have to be more plain.”



Warren gave her a shark-like smile, if not for that brat being born, it would probably be he sitting in her chair, “I’m just concerned that your constant dates with women around Gotham will affect business, that is all I am saying Ms. Rosenberg. Is your head in this business or your lovelife?”



Willow’s eyes narrowed to slits, “is this table the place to discuss this, Mr. Meers? In fact, would we be having this conversation if I were dating men?” Willow smiled as she saw others nod their heads in agreement around the table, “or is it a fact that you are jealous that I go on more dates with girls than you do? Me being a woman and all.” Laughter could be heard from around the table as Warren fumed, “I believe that that is all, yes?” As no one else had any points to raise, Willow dismissed the group.







Willow sighed as she walked down the corridor, she half turned as she heard footsteps from down the hall and smiled when she saw her best childhood friend, Alexander Harris (though he preferred for his friends to call him Xander) walking towards her. Xander was a general fixer in the company, but Willow had always brought him to the meetings, his comical, but sometimes shrewd perspective on life being refreshing when it came to dealing with others around the table. “Ignore him, Wills, everyone else does.”



Willow carried on walking as Xander caught up with her, “I know, that guy though, he is such an arrogant bastard.”



Xander nodded his head, “anyone would think that he was a senior member rather than just a couple years older than you. If not for his father being a past member of the board, I doubt he’d even be here. So, any plans for tonight? Who is the willmeister going to lay next?”



Willow laughed as she punched Xander on the arm, “regardless of what certain people think, I’m not the city bike Mr. Harris and well you know it.” Willow gave him a mock stern glare, then sighed. “I don’t know really, plenty of women catch my eye, but there’s always something missing.”



Xander smiled and quipped, “welcome to the world of trying to find a wife.”







Tara sat back on her bed, her back being supported by the headboard, Miss Kitty had got herself comfy on Tara’s lap. Miss Kitty’s ears pricked as there was a knock on Tara’s door, Faith soon entered the room. She walked over to the bed and patted Miss Kitty on the head as Tara continued to stroke her. “Hey T.”



“Hey Faith.”



Yo, T, I heard that there is big ball being held by Rosenberg in a couple weeks, bound to be all the bigwigs from town there, you reckon Catwoman should make an appearance?”



Tara considered this for a moment as she tried to remember what she had heard about this big event, “isn’t all the money going to a charity?” Faith nodded her head, “no deal, diamonds, banks, that’s one thing, that’s taking off the bastards that don’t give a damn. Anyway, Rosenberg isn’t like the rest of them, she gives damn good wages for one, more than anyone else would give a cleaner. Besides, the proceeds are going to charity and I don’t feel like kicking a man when he’s down, I-I’ve been there.”



Faith smiled at Tara, sure this would bring in a big haul, but Faith could see the truth behind Tara’s words, and the pain behind her last ones. “’sok T, just thought I’d mention, heh, if Catwoman doesn’t make an appearance, how about you and I mosey on down there, have a good time?”



Tara smirked, “well, seeing as Ms. Rosenberg likes to treat her staff every now and again, I just happen to have a couple of tickets, now I don’t have a guy to take with me,” at this, Faith smirked, she’d seen the girls that Tara had brought home in the last couple of months since they had money to entertain, not that Tara went out of her way to flash her cash, that would be dangerous. But she didn’t see how the odd treat could hurt. “I was w-wondering if you’d like to join m-me.”



Faith looked down at her best friend, “well, I say we go see how the big boys play.” Faith smiled as did Tara, “but I still think that Gotham needs to be reminded that Catwoman is still in town, now there’s this dandy little…”







Batman once again stalked the shadows of Gotham City, Willow had spent a good deal of the afternoon in the Batcave typing away on her computer, all serial criminals had a pattern, it was just a case of finding out where Catwoman would strike next. After a good deal of work, Willow figured that there was one of three places that Catwoman could hit, two jewellery stores like the last one or a store that specialised in watches half a block away from the roof she was sitting on. Figuring that Catwoman would be just as aware as she was that all of the jewellery stores would have tighter security for now, Willow figured that the watch store would soon be paid a visit.



After changing into her batsuit, and after agreeing for the umpteenth time to be careful, here she was waiting. Willow’s vigilance soon paid off when she saw a leather clad figure on the roof of the store. Willow quickly drew a batarang from its store, attached a strong piece of cord, and fired it towards a street light, pulling it tight when it had wrapped around a few times, she silently swung onto the roof where she could see Catwoman carefully using a glass cutter to gain entry.



Catwoman had obviously done her homework, as long as she made sure that the glass did not hit the floor, which had a pressure pad alarm system, Catwoman could swing down and take whatever she wanted. She would only get halfway through cutting her little circle in the shops skylight before she heard a swoop noise behind her. She turned to see Batman and arched one fine eyebrow, “I see that I rate highly enough to be paid a visit by you then.”



Batman stared impassively at Catwoman, Tara could not tell what lay behind his eyes seeing as they were hidden from her behind Batman’s cowl. “Indeed.”



“Well, I guess you have me.” Catwoman held her hands out as Batman cautiously walked towards her. Before he could react, Catwoman’s right hand flew to her side soon held a whip which, with a flick of the wrist, wrapped around Batman’s ankle, a quick tug and Batman was on his back, the end of the whip untangled from Batman’s foot and he lunged towards Catwoman. The old ‘look before you leap’ saying seemed pretty appropriate right now as Catwoman merely moved out of the way and Batman went plummeting. Fortunately, he had disengaged his batarang and quickly had it to hand to stop his fall inches from the ground.



Catwoman had wisely used this time to get off the roof herself and out of sight, plotting the quickest route home.







Angel looked at this little fight impassively from the vantage point he had taken, he smirked as Catwoman tripped Batman to make her escape. ‘Beautiful,’ he had thought. He cracked his knuckles as he thought grimly about the pain the Bat-freak had coming to him, but that could wait, he had an appointment, and there he was walking now. Angel plummeted the distance from rooftop to floor, gracefully landing in front of the young man. The man looked at him slightly spooked, then, he smiled. “Ah, Angel. I believe I have a preposition for you.”



Angel smirked, “I’m all ears Mr. Mears.”

Cool! Definitely a memorable first encounter between Willow and Tara, so I'm looking forward to a nice fiesty romance. Nice to see too that Tara's not an outright villain, which promises that she and 'Batman' can reach common ground. Especially against such lowlifes as Angel and Warren... what I'm wondering is, does Warren have the marginal level of style necessary to actually become a supervillain, or is he just going to be his usual Jerkweasel (I love that!) self?



I can absolutely see him as the Riddler - totally self-centred, sure he's so much smarter than everyone else, and ultimately, useless.

Whereas I know far more than is healthy about the comic book adventures of Batman/Catwoman being an unrepentant comic book geek since childhood.

There is something appealing about Willow/Tara being on opposite sides of the law providing yet another hue of grey to the morality spectrum.

Circumstances will adapt, shift, and change to allow them to cross paths with each other in due time, I foresee.

I like the visuals of Tara in the black leather PVC catsuit and Willow iin the Batman uniform.

What else does she keep in the utility belt? Batcuffs? :seesaw

Update

Postby robotguru » Sun Mar 20, 2005 3:34 pm

Two updates in one day, aren't we good to you? (Please don't kick our asses for the delay).



***



Chapter three



“I’m all ears Mr. Mears.” Angel had spoke out to this young…businessman, looked quite flashy too, good for the fee at least.



“I’m sure that you know of one Willow Rosenberg?”



Angel had shrugged, the dyke had fallen on her feet it seemed since Warren’s father had had him take care of Ira and Sheila, oh yes, this wasn’t the first time that a Mears had come to him for his…services, “redhead, yay high and more out than Elton John, yeah, I know her.”



Warren took in the dark haired vampire in front of him, he stood a head taller than him and his face was passive, his eyes were unreadable, granite. Warren smirked, “well, big companies nowadays, they are…‘cutthroat’ businesses…if you get my drift.”



Inwardly, Angel had rolled his eyes, “ok, no more beating around the bush, Mears, seems to me that you want the dyke dead, and with Rosenberg Industries putting money towards the police service, it would be in my best interests also…if certain actions were taken by the new chairman, and a certain amount of money were to change hands.”



“How much?”



“Nothing much for a soon to be Billionaire, I assure you. Two million.”



Warren had baulked at that slightly, but then smiled, “do make it bloody.”







The Batmobile had roared into the Batcave, and by the revving of the engine, Giles could tell that Willow was more than a little…tetchy. “good night, Willow?”



Willow had sighed as she pulled off that cowel and ripped off the patch from her throat. “I stopped the robbery at least,” Willow slammed her fist into the wall, “she owned me though.”



“If I may, are you sure you didn’t just let your guard down?”



Willow sighed, “that’s probably it, still, I don’t think she’ll be out for a few nights after this close call, I’ll just do a few sweeps over the next couple nights, see if I can pick her up. Anyway, I’m beat, I’ll just shower and get to bed I think. Night G-man.”



Willow had smirked as she heard his mild protestations and could picture him cleaning his glasses as she walked up the stairs.







Tara had looked quickly around before slinking into the apartment block and quickly into the bathroom where she had locked herself into a cubicle. She had planned for every eventuality when she had started down this path, there was always a bag hidden nearby with less conspicuous clothes. Whenever she had been rumbled or the apartment block had looked too busy for comfort, she could just pick this bag up and get to the nearest place to change.



Tara slid off the hot leather that had left glistens of sweat on her skin, most of it on this occasion being from the adrenaline rush that had come from Batman catching up with her. Her black underwear had been soaked in her own sweat, no one had come that close to capturing her. She had known the risks though, what she was doing was illegal, but like the rich snobs couldn’t afford to lose a few grand anyway. Tara had sighed as she had changed into a pale blue shirt and some denim jeans, ‘time for a change in MO, he nearly got me there, I must have fallen into some sort of pattern.’ Tara had shrugged to herself as she had shoved the leather suit and high-heeled boots in her bag, zipped it up and walked up the stairs.







As Tara had walked into the room, Faith cast an eye over her, “didn’t go so well tonight?” Tara had given a tired shake of her head before petting Miss Kitty, “meh, better luck next time, eh?”



“S-sure.” Tara had walked over to the cupboard, “You didn’t tell me we were out of cat-food, Faith.”



“Well you fed her last, want me to go get some?”



“Nah, I c-could do with a walk, just need to shower first.”







As Tara had left the building, Angel had flipped from the roof and in through the open window to find Faith looking at him. Faith raised an eyebrow, “what happened to T tonight?”



“She just got unlucky, Bats caught up with her this once. What have I told the two of you about heading for the same sort of area each time? Anyway, I have a job for you.”



“Job? What kinda job?”



“I need you to follow Ms. Rosenberg around, see what she gets up to during the day if you can, I rarely see her out at night.”



Faith snorted, “what? You plannin’ on pickpocketing a Billionaire or something?”



“No, I have been asked to…take care of her.”



Faith had downright shook her head at this, “nuh-uh, T says that red lady has been ok with her, you want me to help you kill her?”



”For a share of two million, yes.”



Faith had considered this for a moment, but shook her head. Sure, robbing the bigwigs, like it hurt anyone, really. But murder, that was one line that once crossed…“I don’t feel comfortable with it, ok?”



Angel had expected this at some time from his two pet criminals, his hand had lunged out and grabbed Miss Kitty by the back of her neck, “I wonder if cats landing on their feet will save this little one from the top of Gotham Tower, look, kid. I’m doing this job, and I need your help, is there anywhere that Willow is likely to be?” Angel had pressed home his advantage, “I can tell when you lie to me Faith.”



“Ok, ok damn you! Two weeks, they hold a big charity ball, she’s sure to be there. Other than that, I don’t know, ok? Now put the cat down.”



Angel had put Miss Kitty down, “thank you, now keep your ear to the ground, the sooner this can be done, the better. Oh, and not a word to Tara about this.”



Angel had swooped out of the window as Faith shakily sat down, ‘fuck, what have I done?’

Evil Angel! No-one threatens Miss Kitty and gets away with it :fit2 So he's going after Willow - well, she has in her favor that he doesn't seem to have the least clue about her extra-curricular activities, that ought to give her the edge of surprise if they two come face to face. I wonder if Faith will tell Tara, inm spite of Angel's warning? It'd be interesting if this is what gets Catwoman and Bat'man' fighting side-by-side.



And many thanks for the image of Tara stripping off her skin-tight leather :drool

Wow, just found this fic and I must say it rocks. Tara in the leather Catwoman suit:drool . And I like all the twists. Willow is Tara's boss, but also Bat'man', who is trying to stop Catwoman aka Tara, who really enjoys working for Willow, but wants to get rid of Batman. And then we have Faith, friends with Tara, but now going to help Angel, who helps Tara but also helps Warren, kill Willow.



Or something like that. Very cool though. Hopefully we'll get to see this one completed.;)

Are you implying that Christopher and I don't finnish our stories?



BLASPHAMY!



We've finnished...uhm...



Gimmie a second......



.....



..



.



Okay, I see your point.



We'll try our gayest to finnish both this and Network's Child. The chances of Afterburn ever being done is slim to none. There's actually more of a chance to get your entire head stuck in a 12 oz. can of Diet Code Red Mountian Dew.



Pist! I just finnished the update for Network's Child, it'll be up in a few hours.

Re: Cats And Bats (Chris and Rei are at it again!) UPDATED 3

Postby ambersagoddess » Tue Mar 22, 2005 6:30 pm

As I previously mentioned this update's for Kelsey :p







Chapter...fuck if I know...four:





Tara rubbed the towel through her wet hair furiously, quickly drying it. She knocked lightly before storming into Faith's room.







"Do you have any--"







Faith quickly hung up the phone.







Tara cocked her head. "What was that about? I didn't hear the phone ring."







"It didn't, it was nothing, what did you need?"







Blue eyes narrowed in suspicion. "A hair tie."







Faith pulled one out of her bedside table and tossed it to Tara. "That's it?"







"Yeah."







They stared at each other intensely for a moment before Tara turned and left, closing the door behind her.







Faith looked at the door for a moment before picking up the phone with a trembling hand. She pushed a speeddial button.







'Faith.'







"Sorry, Angel, T walked in."







'Did she hear anything?'







"No, I don't think she heard."







'Good. Continue.'







Faith uncrumpled her piece of paper, reading from it the locations she had spotted Willow.







Outside the door Tara had her ear pressed tenderly against the door.







She pulled back, threw her towel on the ground, and went to her room.







Tara yelled back to Faith, "I'm going to pick up cat food." She scratched Miss Kitty's chin.







"Yeah, later T."







Tara closed the door behind her as she left the apartment.







Tara approached her light blue Volvo in the parking lot of PetCo. With a heavy bag of catfood, several catnip toys, and quite a few bags of treats, Tara struggled to get her keys out of her pocket.







She felt a hand on her shoulder and she jumped.







"Oh, Ms. Rosenberg."







Willow smiled, her hand moved to her face to swiftly remove her expensive sunglasses. Tara found her eyes to be the eighth wonder of the world, so full of power and emotion, even if Willow was squinting to keep the sun out of her eyes. "Just call me Willow." She reached out and took the bag of food.







Tara smiled. She reached in her pocket and pulled out her keys.







The trunk popped open and Willow held the bag until Tara could take it and fill the space of the trunk with it.







"You...shop at PetCo?"







"You drive a Volvo?"







They smiled at each other.







Willow looked across the street. She pointed in the distance. "I go to the coffee shop."







Tara nodded.







"Would it be rude to ask how you afforded a Volvo on a cleaner's salary?"







Tara smirked, "It's pretty complicated."







"Let me guess..." Willow looked deeply in Tara's eyes, "you're a burglar."







A scoff escaped Tara's lips.







Tara could see a smile in Willow's dancing eyes. "I'm just messing with you."







The blonde's lips curled upwards. "Did you want a ride?"







"I was going to call my driver, but he's sassy, complains," she smiled, "he'll love you forever."







Tara opened the passenger side door. Willow smiled and took her seat. "Gotta love chivalry."







When Tara was in place, the duo zoomed off.







The girls often exchanged shy glances and witty banter at stop signs and red lights on the way to the mansion like building Willow resided in.







The Rosenberg estates consisted of a towering black building, much in the style of a spooky movie, as well as a few acres of lush green surrounding area. The entire thing was encased by a tall spiked security fence made of very strong cast iron rods.







Willow smiled and leaned across Tara's body to push the call button.







Tara stammered, finding Willow's desirable breasts pressed against her cheek, "I-I-I can g-get that if you want."







"I got it." Willow dwelled a moment longer than needed before she pulled back.







There was a scratching noise from a speaker and a bouncy male voice came to the ears of the girls. "Rosenberg Estates."







"Xander, it's Will, open the gate for me?"







"Yeah, sure, what're you driving around for? You were supposed to call me!"





"I got a ride from a girl that works for me."







"I LOVE HER!"







The gate creaked open menacingly. Willow nudged Tara lightly. "Go ahead, it won't kill you."





Tara smiled and drove on, stopping at the facade of the house.







"Thanks for the ride, might I interest you in a drink? Some champagne maybe?"



Tara nodded and got out of the Volvo, walking alongside Willow's long strides to the door.







The door opened before they could reach for the knob frightening Tara.







Willow laughed and put her hand on Tara's shoulder. "Don't worry, it's just Giles."







The Englishman glanced at Tara, a serious look on his face before moving back to Willow. "Willow, I have some bad and urgent news. Perhaps I should speak to you alone."







The redhead crinkled her brow and shook her head. "You can say it here."







"Well, it seems the two people that've been following you have been identified. Unfortunately, Buffy could only find one name for you, Angel. She says he's been around for a while. She said 'he' so I'm assuming this is the man. She said she'd keep looking for the brunette woman."







Tara's eyes opened quickly. "Sorry Ms. Rosenberg, I have to go. I forgot I have a meeting."







"A cleaning meeting?"







"Uh, yeah."







"I didn't schedule one."







"Rosey did. Very sorry, see you at work tomorrow." Tara turned tail and ran back to her car, jumped in, and furiously peeled out of the estate.







Giles cleared his throat. "Well she's an odd one isn't she?"







"Yeah," a slow smile spread across the redhead's face, "she is."















Tara pounded harshly at the door to Angel's apartment. Still no answer, she was getting impatient. With a quick motion Tara kicked the door in.





"ANGEL!"







He wasn't home. It was dusk, quite possible he was hunting.







Tara sifted through various items: prayer beads, Moby Dick, a glass of blood.







She touched her finger to the liquid.







"Still warm, he just left."







She went to his phone, she'd call his cell, she needed to talk to him.







As she reached for the receiver Tara noticed a stack of yellow paper, a pen nearby. Written on it was the address to Rosenberg Enterprises, as well as Willow's office number, this was followed by various locations including the address to Rosenberg Estate, and Quik Caffine, the shop across from PetCo.







Tara's forehead wrinkled with curiosity.







Blue eyes darted from the phone to the paper before she turned and walked out the broken entrance.







Tara walked up the stairs to she and Faith's apartment, but through the paper thin walls, loud voices caught her ears. It was Angel and Faith.







"I've already helped you find her, I'm not going to pull the trigger, I feel bad enough about this as it is."







"Com'on Faithy, just one murder, no big deal."







"No way soul-boy, nuh uh. Not my style. I shoot for the good guys now."







Tara moved slowly around the corner until the two were in sight, they stood outside the door to the apartment.







Angel scoffed, "Your best friend and room mate is a burglar, you enjoy her spoils." A cold finger reached out and slipped behind Faith's F diamond necklace.







He tugged slightly before letting go.







"Think about it. You have until the ball. It's a lot of money Faith."







Tara scaled the wall and pressed herself against the two sides of the hallway, holding herself against the ceiling.







She watched as Angel billowed out below her.







Tara waited until she heard Faith shut the door and Angel was gone before dropping to the floor with the grace of a cat.







She pulled out her key, inwardly fuming, and pretended nothing happened.







That was it then...she had until the night of the ball to find a way to save Willow.
