"She won't kill me," I assured my friend. "Besides, it's true and she knows it. Remember, I've met Faith *and* Willow. If being a Slayer didn't make her a sadomasochist, then those two did!"

"Yeah, you have met both of them." I said with a smile, "And they both trained me, and guess what? They BOTH killed people!" I leapt at him, only stopping short because Ate and Doc both grabbed me and held on for all they were worth. "Ok, ok." I said, "Lemme go." Doc looked a little uncertain, but backed off. I glared at Joshua, and he backed off, not saying anything else.

I looked sad and asked, "Why did you hold her back?" Joshua looked like he was going to attack me and I said, "Try it clock boy." as a firebal appeared in both of my hands.

"Oh just try it Mr. Teabags," I challenged right back, forming a couple exploding Time Bubbles in each hand.
As for Maya . . . well, dying I have no problem with. I've actually died more times than I've killed demons. Neither number is very big, but the comparison still fits. And of course each time I'm killed or suddenly find myself in extreme danger of some kind, my powers automatically kick in, so much so that I actually have to consciously disable them from reversing time so that I can avoid the danger.
Mister English-answer-to-coffee actually took a step forward and looked like he might start a fight. One that I was more than willing to finish, and quite capable of doing so as well. Mutually thanks to Doc, Maya, Willow, and ironically enough, Faith.
Long story short, she showed up one day while I was learning to control my new power with Maya and Willow and mostly because she was bored and I was curious, we went a round of sparing, she of course letting me use the powers that allowed me to speed myself up and slow her down. She still beat me, but I learned a few tricks that will help me win any fight against any kind of human, except maybe a Slayer that knows the same tricks, hands down.
Another reason why I didn't provoke Maya further.

"What will you do?" I teased, " Paint my fingernails? Comb my hair?"

My face must have shown a truly evil expression the moment before I finished casting the spell, because Maya suddenly shouted, "Joshua! NO!" and tried to race forward to stop me. Luckily for her I anticipated interference and managed to put up a barrier to keep anyone from getting in the way.
Even before he moved again, barely having enough time to throw one of his fireballs at me and start chanting another spell of his own, mine had already taken full effect.
Surrounded by the grayish cloudy globe of one of my time bubbles, Tpot suddenly found himself getting smaller and smaller at a steadily increasing rate. By the time he was half my height, his fireball had lost half it's strength and then went out with a wink. Before he could finish chanting whatever spell it was he was going to cast, his voice had suddenly gone soprano and just before my spell stopped its work, his language had been reduced cries and unintelligible strings of sound made by his throat. In a matter of two seconds I had turned a nearly 20 year old champion of the Powers That Be . . . into a crying 2-month old baby without any powers at all.
Everyone just stared in stunned amazement at the crying baby, his clothing pooled around him like so many blankets, until Doc stepped forward and slapped me on the back of the head.
"OW! What was that for? It's TEMPORARY! He'll be back at his normal age by tomorrow," I growled out, figuring on why they were mad at me. "And HE STARTED IT!" I shouted when Maya looked like she was going to hit me too.

"Fix him now!" I growled, Literally smashing Josh's shield that had held me back. "Damn it! What are you guys? 8? I dont give a sh*t who started it, you dont devolve people in a graveyard, when there could easily be vamps and demons around... and you shouldnt devolve people anyway... Just turn him back!"

"I did not *DE-EVOLVE* him!" I said, stressing the proper pronunciation. "I de-aged him. He's now about 2 months old. And even if I wanted to, which I don't, I couldn't change him back before the twenty or so hours it'll take him to grow back up. And I'm not completely anal. All of us are here. One of you guys can take care of him until he grows up."
And with that, the time portal, which I had been mentally casting the spell for, behind my personal shield, opened beneath my feet. Even the Cretacious Period has got to be more pleasant than this atmosphere, I thought as I sunk down and into the portal, leaving everyone there . . . with baby Tpot.
Too bad I forgot to set up cameras.

"URGH!" I cried, "I cant take him much longer! Rogue, would you please just bite him so that i can stake him? Please!? He's driving me MAD!" I looked down at where Tpot was sitting, gazing up at me and gurgling happily. "And that thing better not make smells!"

"I did warn you TPot could annoy people easily," I said to Maya, pickingmy infant friend up. "I'll take care of him. Unless you girls are feeling clucky," I added with a cheeky grin.

At Maya's words, a small, green-rimmed portal suddenly opened up above her head. A DVD dropped out, almost hitting her on the head, but she caught it in time.
"What the...?" she started to ask, but just stared in angry disbelief at the 'Bring It On' DVD in her hand. Widescreen edition.

I caught the box, and frowned at it, wondering what Joshua was trying to say.

I looked at teh cover and gave a laugh.
"Check the picture Mai," I said. The Slayer gave the box a good look.
"Oh you have got to be sh***ing me!" She cried.
((Sure, Josh. Not necessarily you, Excepting the fact this is definately your style.))
