I wrote 'The Avengers' series a bit out of order, but here's the third major story, which completes the series.

Title: The Avengers
Author: ubiquirk
Fandom: BtVS
Rating: PG13
Genre: drama, action/adventure
Word Count: ~6700
Characters: Faith, Giles
Disclaimer: Not mine; no money.
AN: Set post “Chosen,” just after “No Future for You.” Written for summer_of_giles 2009. Third in the Avengers Series. Although each story can stand alone, this one is the direct sequel to both ‘Feet of Clay’ and ‘New Kind of Same’ and references events in each. Much thanks to my beta firefly_124.

Summary: Each estranged in their lives, Faith and Giles have formed a ‘working partnership between equals.’ But something’s got the demons of London in an uproar, and the duo’s first big case as ‘Peel and Steed’ proves tougher than expected … on multiple levels.
