<div class="floatleft">(http://i980.photobucket.com/albums/ae282/caela_ecub/Blondes/ts1-1.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Abigail "Abby" Holden<br/><strong>Species:</strong>Human/Slayer<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Redemption<br/><strong>Tagged:</strong>River, Anyala, Rae, Amilcar<br/><br/><hr/><br/><em>"This way Abigail. And the name's River."</em><br/><br/>Moving forward, Abby glanced at River, a small grin on her lips as she teased gently, "Now see, that wasn't so hard was it? Didn't even hurt did it?"<br/><br/>She could see the thoughtfulness on his face and knew he had to be wondering why the hell Tara had been willing to keep her. If Tara hadn't shown her what she had, she would have been wondering too. As it was, she knew, but she didn't want to say anything until they were outside the meeting hall. From behind her she could hear Red (she really needed someone to tell her that woman's name!) arguing about them going on whatever mission it was that River had in mind, and she bristled slightly when Anyala called her, "the little one" but it was a title she couldn't really argue. She didn't have the training or stature to have earned anyone's respect yet...but she would.<br/><br/>When they were outside she glanced up at River again, this time her face was serious, "So, what is it exactly you're going to want us to do? I'm game whatever it is. Tara said she was going to turn me over to the Rangers for training anyway, so I may as well just jump in feet first." Looking up at him she held his gaze for a moment before speaking to him quietly, not so much worried about the others hearing, as still just a bit confused and uncertain about some of the things Tara had shown her. It had all been a jumble after all and she needed to hear some of it from someone else just to make it seem real. "Would it mean anything to you if I told you Tara said I was something called, The Slayer?"<br/><br/>Her voice was quiet when she asked, not carrying far but the others might have heard. She wasn't trying to keep it a secret, she just still wasn't sure exactly what it all meant. It wasn't as if Tara had handed her an instruction manual! On the heels of that thought, she wondered if there ever had been some sort of guidebook or something for new Slayers. Surely if they'd been around as long as her dreams made it seem there must have been something! Of course if there had been it had, probably, been destroyed when the barriers between dimensions had collapsed and unleashed hell on Earth.<br/><br/>Still it was something to think on...when she got a chance, she'd ask Tara if there were any old texts about Slayers that she could study.
