"yeah, Kiddo," I said. "It almost worked. Next time, though, maybe having it somewhere where people can't barge in..."

"Yeah. You did a great job planning it though,"
((What I was gonna have Rogue say: "Like a concrete building," I said. "With time stopped out side and the day hell freezes over."))

(((Good idea.)))
"Hey," I said, grabbing Jessy with my other arm and hugging her too. "Wasn't you're fault. you weren't to know. Unless you sent her an invite."
(((I think we need to wait for Jessy.)))

"I don't care about the stupid party. They never go right, we're the bloody Slayerettes." I pulled away, tears in my eyes. "She looked really beaten up. I'm worried ok? Pregnant women can't take that sort of beating well. I should know. Mum was pregnant when she died."

Shit. "She'll be fine," I said. "I'm sure of it. Aila can fix it, Maya if absolutely necessary and if there's no other choice, we'll take her to hospital. But something happened here. She came to LA for a reason, she wouldn't risk the kid unless it was bad," unless she really was an evil Watcher, i thought. "I'm thinking we keep her in low profile mode til we figure it out. But she'll be fine. Okay?"

"She's running. Didn't you see the look in her eyes? I'm pretty sure you've seen it before."
~~~~~~~Flashback (just for the hell of it)~~~~~~~~
I staggered into the Spot, eyes wide with fear. "Can anyone help me?"

"I know," I said. "I also know for a fact she was looking for us. I just got word from mal. Dojo Maya's, here...she knew we'd help, despite her attitude last time. She's safer here than the hospital. Anyone tries anything here..."

"It's got all of us to go through," I nodded.
Amy put a hand on Jessy's shoulder.

I hadnt said anything the whole time, jsut watching, listening, a deep frown on my face. I thought back to how she'd been when we last saw her, the bitterness, the anger... the pain. Damn it, i'd let my own pride get in the way of my care for her. I had known she wasnt happy. I'd KNOWN. And now she was in a very bad way... and i could find out in moments why... but i couldnt bring myself to do it. I wanted her to tell me. Aila was checking her over, but looked awkward about it. I touched her on the shoulder, speaking for the first time,
"It's ok Val, i'll do it."
"But it's your..." She tried to protest.
"I want to." I insisted. I checked Charlie over thoroughly, testing for broken bones, irregularity in breathing and pulse, and then the baby. I knew even Josh was wondering how i knew what to look for, but that was a story for another time. "The baby's ok , but pretty far on, not far off full term, infact." I glanced at Doc, but didnt say what we were all thinking- it was nearly nine months since she'd been here last
((Shh! Pretend!!!))
"She is pretty battered though. Her left arm was broken recently, its healed, but only just. Other than that, she's got bruises and scrapes everywhere, and it's not all from the same beating..." Again i looked at Doc, and he knew what i was suggesting...

"Right," I said, exhaling sharply. Someone wasn't happy that she was pregnant. Great. "Alright, soon as she's up, we get her out of here," I looked at Maya. Again, a look, sharing more than words. Maya nodded and took Aila out to set wards until Charlotte was ready to move. "Once she's ready to talk, we figure out what the hell's going on here," although, I thought, I think Maya's already figured out who the father is.

"Wards are set." I said, "But we should get her out of here." I pulled a vial of mystical smelling salts out of a pocket and held them under charlies nose.

"Can I help in anyway?" I asked, stepping forward. "I want to help."
