Re: Rescue vs. Minions/Victims
Giles' gaze also kept flicking to Buffy, concerned for both her and Dawn. He was hoping against hope that everyone would come through the battle alive and hopefully intact. He tried to catch Faith's eye as well for a moment.
Tara was beginning her spell now, and he prayed that it worked. He had wanted to say the spell with the others, but he'd reasoned that he would be most useful doing what he was right now.
A demon smacked him in the head from behind, and he turned, dazed, fighting to shake the cobwebs out as he plunged with the sword. He only wished that he wasn't just a mortal human, that he had something more to call on. He felt the beginnings of the fatigue, and he knew he'd use his reserves up faster than the younger people here. He just hoped Tara's spell bought all of them what they needed to succeed.
