The Bermuda Triangle Affair.

Part Three.


Helena tapped her ink,ink, "Barbara? Are you there?"
"Yes, I'm here. What did you find out?"
"Quite alot actually. We managed to get that briefcase from Stefan and it has 4 CD's, 2 vial's of silver liquid and even a user guide on how to use this program. Now we need to get this stuff to you. But, we have to be at the docks tonight and see what this meeting is all about. Seems Kubek has a boss and this could be the man/demon were really looking for so we can't miss it."


"Alright, see what you can find out at this meeting, but then you need to get back here so I can get started on that program as soon as possible. The more information we have about how it works the easier it will be to find a way to prevent it. One other thing, Dinah and Reese came up with a lead you should be aware of. There is no record of Stefan Kubek existing before two years ago. Everyt abo about him was created on the same date, 01, 01, 01. It's all very strange. Were thinking he either created a new identity and faked his own death or he was or is a demon in human form."


"Wow, that's alot to take in at once. Well thanks for the update. We will be at this meeting tonight and if all goes well we will be on a plane back to New Gotham in the morning."
"I don't have to tell you to be careful, but please do. Both of you."
"You know we will. Talk to you soon." Helena turned to see Faith looking out the window of the motel, "See anything?"
Faith turned back to Helena then closed the curtains and walked over and sat beside Helena on the bed, "Actually I was just enjoying the daylight for a change. Didn't see much of that these last 3 years."


"I can't imagine what that would be like. I'm glad your here though. I think we make a pretty good team." Helena sat back on the bed and looked at her watch then back at Faith, "Hey, we've got some time before we have to be at the docks so what do you think about going for a swim? I mean, were at a beautiful resort here with amazing beaches and we might not get another chance like this, so I say we have some fun."
Faith's eye's opened wide at the very thought of having fun and even moreso when that fun included swimming with Helena, "I'm up for it. Don't have anything to wear though."
"That's okay, there's stores on every corner here sng bng bikini's. I'm sure we can find us both something." Helena stood up and took Faith by the hand out the door they went.


They walked down the to the corner and just as Helena had said there was a little shop that sold nothing but swimsuits.
The selection wasn't bad for small place like this and the girls flipped through the racks of bikini's and after some haggling with the saleslady they settled on the two they wanted, paid the woman and headed back to the motel to put them on.
It was a small motel and Faith wasn't shy at all so she started undressing in front of Helena and was soon very naked, but was happy to see that Helena wasn't very shy either and the two of them were soon in their brand new bikini's and ready for that swim.


They grabbed a couple blankets from the motel and made their way down to the beach. It was fairly crowded so they kept walking down the coast and around a small inlet onto the other side of the rocky hillside.
There was a small section of the beach here that was barely big enough for one person to do anything let alone two.
Quiet is what they wanted, so they put down the towels and slowly made their way out into the water.
It was very warm and the girls took full advantage of this.


Faith was especially thrilled to be out in the open where she was free to do anything she wanted and she was having a blast the whole time.
Helena got out of the water first and walked over and grabbed a towel to dry off. She watched Faith splashing around in the water and couldn't help but enjoy Faith's enthusiasm.
As Faith made her way out of the water her eyes met Helena's and they sd lod locked on them as she walked right up to her. She grabbed the towel from the ground and was drying herself off and could feel Helena's eyes watching her every move, "Do I have seaweed in my hair or something?"


"What?" Helena quickly realized what Faith was referring to, "I didn't mean to stare. Really, I was just, well, it was nice to see you so happy like that. You looked so relaxed. It is a good look for you."
"I'll take that as compliment then." Faith smiled and finished drying off then set the towel down and lay on top of it.
Helena did the same and turned on her side so she was facing Faith, "Now that we have some time here did you want to talk a little?"
Faith rolled on her side and put her elbow on theund und and looked back at Helena, "I guess. Why don't you tell me a little more about what you do?"


"Oh it's nothing really. I work with two other women. Well, one woman and teenager really. We try and keep the crime in New Gotham to a minimum. We can do alot of the things the police can't. Having special powers and not having to follow a billion rules does give us an edge."
"Sounds interesting. Very similar to being slayer really." Faith looked over at Helena who was brushing some sand off her chest and was very aware of how hard it was to concentrate with Helena in a bikini only a foot away. As Helena looked back at Faith wondering why she stopped talking, Faith pulled her eyes back from Helena's breasts and continued, "License to kill and there are no shortage of demons in this world so the job is never ending."


"Yes, that has to put alot of pressure on you. I can see how it could be very stressful. So what do you do for fun anyway?"
"Fun? There isn't much time for that as a slayer really. I love to dance. That's my one weakness. I love to fight to. I just love the rush of energy that comes with it. The danger. The unknown. The thrill of the battle and the feeling I get when I get rid of one of the bad guys." Faith's passion for the fight had not changed much since she was a slayer, but evaithaith herself knew there was something more calm about her now. More in control. She just wasn't sure if that was a good thing or not.


"I agree with everything you said. I feel much the same way when I'm fighting. It's a thrill but it's also the danger. The fact every fight could be my last. I'm not invincible. I choose to do this and my only reward is self satisfaction in a job well done. The public can't know what we do. In many ways that part is very frustrating."
Faith was amazed at how both their jobs were so similar and was happy Helena understood alot of what she went through and it did make her feel more at ease. Unfortunately the sun was making her feel very hot, "This heat is getting a bit much for me, maybe we should head back to the motel and get ready for that meeting?"


Helena sat up and put her hand on Faith's arm, "Wait, did I say something wrong? I didn't mean to get personal."
Faith put her hand over Helena's, "It's not that. I'm just not used to this heat. I'm fee a b a bit light headed here."
"Okay, we better get you back to the motel." Helena helped Faith up and they made the long walk back along the beach and then up to the motel.
Inside Helena helped Faith to the bed and went and grabbed a wash cloth and ran some cold water over it and brought it back and placed it over Faith's forehead.


"Ummm, that feels so good right now. I'll be happy when I can spend a whole day at the beach and not need to run back like a sissy."
"Oh stop it. Your not a sissy. Geez, your sure hard on yourself. You just aren't used to the heat. I was ready to come back to." Helena reached over and turned over the cold compress and as she did Faith reached out and grabbed her arm.


"Listen, I just want to thank you for everything. You've been great since we met and I want to tell you something." Faith sat up and removed the cloth from her forehead and looked right into Helena's eyes, "Okay, I'm not very at good at this, but the last time I had feelings for someone I didn't say a thing and well, it cost me alot. I like you. Alot. I've felt this strong connection with you since the first time we met. It's grown so fast in such a short time. I don't know if you want to hear this and I'm sorry if this is more than you want to know, but I need to get this out. Iealleally attracted to you and I wanted you to know this." she td awd away from Helena then continued, "Okay, I'm done. You don't have to say anything either."


Helena was smiling the whole time and she leaned in and put her hand on Faith's shoulder and moved it up to her face, "I don't think I have to say anything either. I'd rather show you how I feel right now."
With that Helena leaned in and kissed Faith softly on heps. ps. Faith put her arms around Helena and pulled her onto the bed with her and they continued to kiss veassiassionately as they rolled back and forth on the very small bed.
The kiss changed from slow and exploring to very hot and passionate the whole time they switched positions on the bed.


Helena was caressing Faith's breasts over her bikini top and just as quickly sliding them under the top and touching her firm round breasts with both hands, sending a soft moan from Faith's mouth as she grabbed Helena's hands and held them close to her breasts and kissed her very hard and deep.
Faith slid Helena's top off and rolled her onto her back and began kissing her breasts and licking every inch of her nipple before taking it into her mouth and holding it there for an eternity before moving to Helena's other nipple and repeating it all over again.


Helena was more than happy to lie back and let Faith do whatever she wanted as she trusted her completely, which for Helena was a very big step.
Every movement Faith made was met with approval by Helena and that just spurred Faith on even more.


With her confidence growing she moved down between Helena legs, kissed both her well toned thighs and then slowly slid her tongue up her moist pussy lips. Helena parted her legs instinctively and Faith slid her hands up and under Helena's thighs and pulled her closer and soon was licking up and down her sweet pussy and loving every second of it.
Faith was concentrating on Helena's clit as she slid a finger inside her and slowly pu it it further and further before withdrawing it almost completely then pushing it all the way back inside again.


As Helena began pushing back to meet Faith's fingers, Faith increased the pace of her strokes faster and faster and was matching the speed of her fingers with the speed of her eager tongue.
The breathing of both girls was heavy and filled with passion.
Faith wasentlentless with her tongue and finger and soon had Helena grabbing her own breasts arching her back and screaming out loud as she had a tremendous orgasm.
Helena was lying back smiling at Faith, who was crawling up her body and was soon kissing her deeply.


They kissed for a moment then stopped and just gazed into each other's eyes before kissing again and again until Helena spun Faith over onto her back and put her hands above her head, then kissed her way down her arms and back to her sexy full lips and kept going down her neck and shoulders until she reached Faith's very full breasts.
Helena took Faith's breasts in her hands and caressed them firmly then slid her tongue around her hard nipples, swirling it in a circle then took it in her mouth and sucked it deep and hard, sending Faith's head back against the pillow her sexy smile to covering her pretty face.


The only sounds to be heard were the two racing heartbeats and some sighs and moans of pleasure from both girls.
Faith brushed her hand through Helena's short hair as she watched and enjoyed her warm tongue licking and sucking her nipples back and fo tak taking them into her mouth and nibbling gently on each one with her teeth as she smiled up at Faith.
Helena slid her arms down Faith's stomach then down between her legs, slowly brushing over her pussy with her fingers. She kissed her inner thighs and licked her way back up to Faith's pussy and slowly slid her tongue up her very wet slit.


The sounds of Faith's moan's spurred Helena on and she pulled Faith closer and spread her pussy lips and quickly began licking Faith's clit with long and slow but with so much pressure from her tongue it was causing Faith to buck her hips uncontrollably.
That didn't phase Helena who just held her tighter and slid two fingers inside Faith and slowlsed sed them further and further up her pussy as Faith pushed back hard and fast with her hips allowing Helena to push them all the way inside her.
Faith was now playing with her breasts, squeezing her nipples and moaning even louder as Helena picked up the pace with both her tongue and fingers and was now licking and fucking Faith so hard and fast her head and hands were like a blur.


Helena could see and feel how much Faith was enjoying her every touch and she was even more intent on making Faith feel as good as she'd just made her and so she then went all out and was soon licking Faith's clit with a passion she never knew existed and her tongue was moving so fast and hard she could barely keep up with her fingers as she slammed them in and out of Faith's soaking wet pussy.
The sounds of Faith's moans reached a deafening peak and her whole body tensed up for the longest time then relaxed and fell limp on the bed feeling totally and completely satisfied and happy for the first time in her life.


Faith opened her eyes to see Helena lying beside her with a big smile on her face and seaneeaned over and gave her a very deep kiss and held her close and they stayed like that until Helena looked at her watch, "We gotta get going. That meeting could happen anytime now."
With that both girls got dressed and made the long trek back to the docks and as they got closer they saw the security was very tight and it was going to be hard to get up close, but that's just what they planned to do.


The pier was lined with about 4 armed men and The Meridian had two other men pacing back and forth on the deck as well.
Helena and Faith agreed that the only way to possibly get past all the guards was to come up from the water and hope things weren't as secure on the far side of the yacht.
They lowered themselves slowly into the water as to not make any noise and swam just as slowly towards the yac



As they made their way up to the front of the yacht there was a long ladder hanging down so they slowly climbed up the side and as Helena got to the top she took a quick look around and saw one man with a gun pacing along the west side.
He did disappear out of view for about 30 seconds and then was back again. She looked around the yacht for a place to hide and saw some crates just in front of the window of the lower section of the yacht that would be perfect.


Helena then whispered the plan to Faith and waited for the man to disappear and she climbed onto the yacht and ran behind the crates and ducked back down as the man came strolling back around.
Faith was now at the top and looking over the situation and she saw the man and then saw where Helena was and as soon as he was out of view she to ran over and slid in beside Helena.
Once they were together they both looked down into the main cabin and saw Stefan talking to someone or something but they weren't in view.


"Listen, I have done my part in all this. Now it's time for you to do what you promised."
A large figure stepped out of the shadows and walked up to Stefan and stood in front of him and looked down at him as he spoke, "Oh, you petulant humans. Always in a hurry. The reason I've lasted as long as I have is because I'm not impatient. I wait for the right moment to act on any plan. In many ways I find it ironic that a demon such as myself would be seen as the smart one of the group."
Stefan's face was growing tense and angry as the demon showed up him very little respect, "I'm not here to trade insults with you. Were here for a job. Once it's over we don't have to see each other ever again. That's fine by me. Right now though you will do your part. Or you will die. So, let's get to it shall we?"


The demon turned away from Stefan and sat back down in a chair to his left, "I'm afraid there's been a change in plans. I know longer need you. You have served your purpose. You've brought me the girl."
"What are you talking about?" Stefan said with a puzzled look on his face, then shook his head and again stood in front of the demon, "That's not my purpose. I'm here to make millions, maybe even billions with this computer program. We discussed all this when you agreed to help us. Get a grip. I have a half dozen trigger happy men out there just waiting for the chance to kill their first demon, so unless you start doing your part right now our arrangement is over."


"Oh, I believe your right. Our arrangement is over. Faith is here and now she will die. And your here and well..." as he said it he grabbed Stefan by the neck and snapped it and let him fall to the floor.
The demon then went outside and in short order killed all of Stefan's men then walked back into the cabin and looked up at Faith and Helena, "I'm so happy your here Faith. Please come inside."
Helena looked at Faith then tried to stop her when she got up, "Wait! We don't know a thing about this demon. Except he wants to kill you. And from what we just saw, he's pretty good at it. So why does he want you dead?"


Faith shrugged her shoulders, "I really have no idea. ooksooks the same as Kakisto, but he's not him. He's dead. He's dust. So I have never seen this demon before."
"Well, he sure knows who you are." Helena said bluntly. She then turned and put her hand on Faith's arm, "I don't like the idea of just walking into a trap. This is his home turf. Who knows how many other demons are inside. Let's just think this through first."
"We don't have time. He's here now. He's part of why I'm here. He has to be stopped. So either I do it alone or we go in there together. What's it gonna be?" Faith asked, knowing Helena couldn't really say no.


"Fine, but let's find out what this is all about first. He seems like he likes to talk and I want to know who Stefan's boss is and if this bank theft program is still on or not."
"I'm all for that. I wouldn't mind knowing why this demon wants me dead. No time like the pre." F." Faith smiled and they made their way down into the cabin where the demon was sitting waiting in the same chair as before.


"Welcome Faith. Who's your little friend?"
Faith sneered at the demon, "Not that it's any of your business, but this is Helena. Now that we got sma small talk out of the way, let's get right to why you are going through so much trouble to kill me?"
"It's quite simple really. You killed my brother. Now I will hurt you in a way that will make us even. How's that?" he asked with just enough sarcasm.


"Oh that's a good enough reason I guess. You seem to forget that he killed my watcher and was trying to kill me though. I know, details." Faith walked over and grabbed a large sword from the wall and walked back and stood in the middle of the floor, "You got your wish. I'm here. So kill me then. Or try."


"Faith, I'm not going to kill you. What good does that do? There is no pain in death. There is no agony. No sorrow. Most of all, there's not suffering. And you will suffer." he stood up and walked towards Faith and both girls got in fighting stances, "Oh, I didn't mean to frighten you. I have spent the last 4 years learning everything about you Faith. Yes, I know about Buffy. I know about the mayor. I know about Angel. Although Angelus was much more fun. I know about your time in prison. I know who each of your cell mates were. Who your psychiatrisere.ere. But most of all I know what will cause you the most sadness, pain and sorrow. And that Faith is my revenge."


Helena took a couple steps towards the demon, "Listen you overgrown mutant, you will do nothing to Faith. In case you forgot, she's a slayer. She will kick your ass. So no more threats. What I want to know is who is Stefan's boss? Is this computer program still going to be a problem?"
"Stefan had no boss. I was his boss. I don't care about his pathetic money making schemes. He was a means to an end and no he's no longer a problem. You might say I did you a favor by killing him. He really wasn't a very honorable man." the demon took another step towards Faith, "I see your friend here has alot of faith in you. Sadly for you none of it will matter."


Faith lunged at the demon and knocked it to the ground with a very strong kick to the head. She then pounced on the demon, "Well, perhaps you spoke to soon."
The demon began to laugh loudly and looked up at Faith, "Please, kill me. You will have to or I will kill your friend here. Then you. So do your thing."
Helena walked over to Faith, "Wait, something's not right here. He's way too eager to die." Helena then took a step forward and put her foot on the demons neck, "What's the deal? If you want to die, then we won't kill you. There are other ways to stop you."


The demon again laughed at Helena and with one quick motion sent both girls flying backwards and tumbling across the floor. He walked into the center of the room and looked first at Helena and then at Faith, "Well, what were you two saying again? Yes, you will have to kill me or I will tear your little friend apart, piece by piece by piece. I will do what my brother did to your watcher. Is that what you want Faith? Is it?"


Faith looked over at Helena and saw the demon move towards her, "No. Stop. If you want to die so bad then you will get your wish."
"That's better. Now, when I die you will get what you deserve. If you don't kill me, your friend will get much worse." the demon again made it's way towards Helena who got up and lunged at the demon and kicked it in the mid section and then knocked it to the ground with another kick to the side of it's head.


"Helena. Come here." Faith grabbed Helena and held her against the wall, "Okay, he has us in a horrible situation. I see no way out. He is a sick and demented and brutal killer. And the thought of him doing something horrible to you is something I can't live with. I won't let that happen to you. Ever!. He said I won't die if I kill him, so to me that's the only option. If it's not death, so be it. I will live with it."


"Are you insane? We can't trust him. Who knows what he has in mind." Helena lowered her voice, "I say our best chance is to neutralize him. That way whatever he has planned when he dies can't happen. Plus, he can't hurt me or anyone else."
"In theory that's great, but you've fought him, he's not going to just go peacefully into some demon jail. Death is all he understands. For all we know he's just bluffing about whatever plan he has for me. He'll be dead. What's he gonna do?" Faith again shrugged her shoulders and moved back towards the demon, "It's time you and I ended this. So get up so I can kill you."


The demon got to it's feet and moved towards Faith and in a flash had got behind her and had his hands around her neck, but instead of kil her her he pushed her hard against the far wall and moved towards Helena.
Helena was ready to fight and got a couple good shots in but the demon then opened up it's claws and swiped at Helena's head. She ducked out of the way but he caught her shoulder and sliced it open in a very big way.


With blood dripping down her arm she tried to duck out of the way of the next few blows and then was sent flying against through the cabin door and landed on her back.
Winded and in serious pain Helena was unable to move as the demon moved in the the kill.
He stood before her and laughed, "This is going to be fun. You look so tasty." with that he leaned down and lifted his big claw up in the hair for the final stroke and as he was coming down he made a loud groan and turned to look over his shoulder, "Faith, you will pay." and then he turned to dust.


Faith ran past the dust and knelt before Helena and saw the very deep wound in her shoulder, "Oh my god. Your shoulder. It's so deep. We have to get you to a hospital now."
As Faith was trying to stop the bleedine wae was unaware of the demon that appeared at the ashes of the dead demon. It was hovering in the air chanting something quietly and as Faith applied pressure to the very nasty cut it caused Helena's head to lift up and she saw the demon behind Faith, "Faith, look out!. Behind you."
Faith turned to see the demon and rushed towards it but as it did there was a flash of light and then the demon vanished and Faith crumbled to the ground.


Helena got up and slowly walked over to Faicallcalling out her name as she did, finally she got to her and knelt down beside her and tried to see if she was okay.
Faith put her left hand on Helena's arms and then reached out with her other hand and then looked up at Helena with a terrified look on her face, "I can't see. I can't see anything."
Helena put her arms around Faith to comfort her and as Faith looked back at her Helena's heart skipped a beat and she jumped back out of shock.
Faith wasn't just blind, she literally had no eyes.


The End.


If there's some interest in this I will pick the story up from this moment and continue it on as Helena fights to get Faith's sight back and Faith deals with all the pitfalls of not being able to see.
