"Hey now, come on, I recognise that voice, you're Nancy's little girl alright" he nodded "You look a little like her now that I think about it" he noticed she looked preoccupied with something "Look, I know me cominginto her life was out of the blue to say the least but I always wondered what happened to you"

"Then let me fill you in." She said turning to face him. "Let's see, my dad's a piece of crap who beat my mom. My mom, well she was an alcoholic who beat me when she was bored. Until she died. So now here I am beating vamps. It's a family tradition of beating things. They'd be so proud of me." She said sarcastically, turning away again.

"Woah, I figured you'd have issues growin' up with parents like that" he scratched the back of his head "Can we talk? you know, do some well overdue catching up?" he was hoping she'd agree, getting to know his long, lost niece was something he'd always wanted to acheive.

Faith kept on walking. She was doing it again. Getting angry at Mike when all he wanted to do was get to know her. She was isolating herself from someone else who just wanted to talk to her. She closed her eyes and pinched the bridge of her nose, stopping in her tracks.
"What do you wanna talk about." she said, not turning to look at him.

Slinging the gun over his shoulder he smiled "Now ya see? ain't that hard is it" he he took an intake of breath and exhaled "Well, let's see there's a nice little diner not far from here, I'll have Reggie drop us off and we can have a nice friendly chat"

She turned around and let her arms fall by her side. "Fine." She followed him in the direction Reggie had gone. "You're paying though."

He laughed "But of course" walking by her they stayed silent ill they reached the car, dumping his gun in the trunk he climbed in and waited for Faith, when she was seated he motioned to Reggie "Faith, this is my friend Reggie" Reggie turned round to get a good look at Faith "Reggie this is my niece Faith" Reggie raised his eyebrows "The one you told me about?"
Mike nodded "Take me to Vinnie's Diner would ya, me and Faith are gonna have a nice long chat" Reggie frowned "What about me?"
Mike frowned "What about you?" Reggie blinked then it dawned on him "Oh, okay, well, no problem"

"Faith, this is my friend Reggie"
Reggie had wiped off most of the blood from his face, making him look a little more human.
"Hey." Faith said, still in a bit of a mood.
"The one you told me about?"
She looked curiously at Mike. "What did you tell him?"

"Just said you where my niece, hadn't seen you since you where born" he looked at Reggie who kept his eyes on the road. As they sat there silently the car came to a stop "Here we are" Reggie said pointing to the Diner.Mike opened the door and got out "Alright Reggie, just leave the car outside your place and I'll pick it up in the morning. Reggie nodded, he looked at Faith "Nice meetin' ya Faith"

"Whatever." She muttered as she got out and followed Mike inside the diner. She was still preoccupied with the events earlier, wondering if it would be best to stay away from the hotel for a while. Or at least steer clear of Wesley. It was ironic that she had pyhsically tortured him, but he had mentally tortured her. Maybe not really him, it had been some kind of Wolfram and Hart illusion. But she couldn't shake that feeling of dread, everytime she saw him. Things would get better in time, supposedly, but right now, things were pretty far from better.
Mike held the door of the diner open for her and she walked in without saying a word. Taking a seat in a booth by the window.

Taking a seat he folded his arms and waited till Faith was sitting opposite him, he leaned in to talk when a waitress came over "What can I get you two tonight?" Mike rubbed his chin thinking "Hm, I'll take a coffee and you have that really nice burger you guys did forme last week?" the waitress nodded "We sure do!" Mike smiled "Alrighty, I'll take one of those with some fries" he looked at Faith "So, what'll it be for you then?"

"So, what'll it be for you then?"
"Huh?" Faith said, shaking her head a little from her thoughts. "Oh, the same, whatever's good." She tried to smile, but it wasn't very convincing.

The Waitress left with a smile on her face and Mike sat there quietly, he saw the rather preoccupied look on Faith's face, looking round he cleared his throat before talking. Almost killing his niece wasn't exactly how he imagined their reunion, infact, he figured Faith would go to extreme lengths not to be found "So, kiddo, you're a slayer huh? that must" he paused for a moment trying to think of something to say "Hard work" he added with a slight shrug.

Faith stared at him, slightly cringing at his attempt to break the ice.
"How is it you know what a Slayer is?" She asked, but before he could answer, she added, "And what the hell are you doing running down the street, in the middle of the night, with a shotgun and a guy with an affinity for chainsaws?"

He gave a nervous laugh, she certainly had her mother's attitude "Well, ya see, your mom probably told ya how I walked out on her when she was a teenager" he looked out rhe window for a few moments "Thing was, I got word that big game hunting brought in some big money here and there, little did I know they where demons and the like" he sighed running his hands through his hair "I was taken through a crash course in the underworld, leaned all about vampires, demons andthe slayer, met a couple in my time...one of them was called Alice..ho boy she had the cutest little" he stopped himself then looked back at Faith "Anyway, that's how I know and it also explains why I carry a gun loaded with wooden pellets, which by the way I'm sorry for alomost killin' you back there"
