Title: Be Seeing You

Rating: PGish or Mild to Medium Salsa
Disclaimer: I don't own Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Angel or Harry Potter.
Summery: Xander finds out that the Watchers do more than just watch over the Slayer because he is given a new position, leason to the most powerful and odd wizard and seer. Only thing is Harry's not of the same type of Seer that Cordilia was and Harry really doesn't understand why that matters.
Author's Note: My first try at Buffy-verse fic. I don't watch Buffy or Angel a whole lot, but I do love to read Xander crossovers. So what I know tends to come from there.
Chapter One - You Talk Like Giles
Xander rolled his eyes as he looked about the Starbucks. He had a latte in hand as well as a blueberry muffin, but the blasted place was filled to the brim with other people. There was only one seat open, at a table with a guy in a sweater and nose in a book. Not just any book, a musty old book with a title on the spine in what Xander knew to be Ancient Greek. Seeing Sun, Sneaking Serpent' was what the title translated to in a very rough sense. Xander knew the guy couldn't be normal, but he didn't set off any Scooby-sense signals, so he was okay. Xander walked up and cleared his throat.Uh, do you mind if I join you? asked Xander and the young man put down the book and smiled.
Of course. Please have a seat. he said in a voice that very much reminded Xander of a younger Giles. Or maybe it was the obviously occult book being read for what seemed was a hobby.
Thanks. I made the mistake of wanting breakfast at breakfast time. Xander joked lightly and the man smiled and chuckled.
Oh, my. Heaven forbid that you eat when you want to. said the other and Xander laughed. But he was really missing Giles, even when he was stuffy and prudish. Not that Giles was stuffy or prudish anymore. The Scoobies broke Giles in just as much as he broke them into being a rather smart group. Xander knew that Giles was the reason Buffy now had an B.A. in Prehistoric Art History and was using that to at least date weird mojo-ed up stuff she came across. Willow was taking classes via the internet and private meetings with her advisor and getting close to her first doctrate in Astrophysics. Willow already had masters in that and in anthroplogy with a focuses in occult artifacts and practices. Xander was a watcher for Faith now but handing that over to Robin who he knew would do a better job in handling Faith and her unique way of looking at life. Besides who better to be a watcher than the husband of the Slayer of Cleveland.
Are you alright there? asked the other and Xander nodded.
You just remind me of my mentor and boss. said Xander, I'm Xander.
Harry. It's a pleasure, Xander. Or is that supposed to be Alexander. Xander blinked. Harry said his name with the same infliction that Giles gave it. Not even Wesley ever matched Giles' way of saying Alexander.'
Er, I seem to trigger a lot of these daydreaming moments, don't I? Harry said and Xander winced.
I don't mean to. It's just, I don't know. You're like a younger Giles, well excepting how you look. You speak like him and seem to share the same hobbies. Xander nodded at the book and the other smiled.
It's a book on the mysteries of the cults of Apollo and Hermes, both centered on divination of some sort. Harry took a sip of the cooled tea that was at his right hand, Dreadfully dry writer, but informative, and you would be bored to tears or suicide if I keep going on. Xander snickered.
Nah, it's better than mating habits of thousand year old demons or something like that. Xander said, Why are you reading about divination? The other looked slightly embaressed.
I didn't pay attention in class, but now I need to figure out my gift before someone desides to drive me mad. Besides I think I'd like to get some game scores so I can make some gold off this bloody family inheirtance. Harry rolled his eyes and as Xander laughed he stuck out his tounge in a very childish gesture.
So you can see into the future? asked Xander and Harry nodded.
Yes. It's a dreadful thing and I would only wish it upon my least favorite teacher from school. But she's barking mad now, so it really wouldn't matter. Harry closed his eyes and sighed, Xander, do me a favor, if I pass out, please just watch over me for a bit. I know it's weird, but I've got a mother load of a vision coming in and I really don't feel like getting carted off to a clinic again. Xander bit his lip but agreed.
He knew that Harry wasn't lying but it was very weird to see the rather normal seeming guy breakout in a cold sweat and his eyes rolled up so that Xander could only see the whites instead of that odd green he found interesting. Xander moved his chair from across the table to right next to Harry and he wrapped his arms about the guy who was trembling now. Harry let out a rasping breath and his whole body tensed up before going slack and unconscious.
Xander pulled out his cell phone as he adjusted Harry so that Harry was laying on his shoulder. He hit the speed dial to the Cleveland Scrappy HQ. Each of the new HQ's were named after a Scooby Doo character, London as the top of all was dubbed Mystery Machine, New Dehli was Velma, Tokyo was Daphnne, Sydney was Shaggy, Cairo was Fred, and LA was Scooby. The other smaller safe houses had the names of the more obscure Doo family members and even the more famous villans. But right now he was waiting for someone to pick up. Five rings more and Faith bellowed into the phone, IT BETTER BE IMPORTANT!!! I WAS SLEEPING YOU JERK!!!!
Hello, Faith. This is your watcher calling. You know the guy who helps bail you out of jail every freaking time you get arrested. Xander snarked and Faith stuttered out an apology.
So why you calling? asked Faith.
I've got a seer guy passed out on my shoulder, and I want you to come down and help me get him to HQ. Xander said and Faith laughed.
Only you, Xand. Okay, where are you? And is he hot?
Faith, you are married. Xander said and added mentally,'Besides, I saw him first.' Xander long ago accepted he was bisexual, and almost all his family a.k.a the Scoobies knew it. But right now was not the time to think about that.
Spoil sport.
I'm at the Starbucks near 25th and Highway 71. Xander answered.
I'll be there in a second. Drive or run?
Do I really need to answer that? Xander sighed. Harry was starting to get warm and shivery again.
Nah. Just jokin'. Faith hung up and Xander counted the seconds until she showed up. He really hoped it wasn't long because he was getting funny looks from the two old ladies who were sitting by the door. He really didn't like that at all.
...TBC...
Do I need to ask you to review?
I hope not, because I'm not that great about it either.
I'm sorry,
