I don't own Buffy or Stargate-Atlantis. Just borrowing it for a little fun.
This is something that had to be written, don't worry I will be finishing my other stories. I won't go into much detail but due to illness I hadn't felt like writing but now better meds have brought back my muse. This has not been beta'd though, I am looking for one if there is any one intersted. Note- There will be slash pairings in this story, along with a couple of hetero pairings too. I haven't decided on the couples yet and I am open to suggestions. The characters from BtVS are Xander, Spike, Faith, and Dawn(who is 19 in the story). The characters for SGA are John Sheppard, Rodney McKay, Carson Beckket, Teyla, Ronon, Elizabeth Weir, and Aiden Ford. Like I said I know there will be at least one M/M pair and one M/F pair, I'll even be open to a F/F pair.
Spoilers- End of BtVS and Angel, First season of Atlantis
Prologue
"Good luck and know you will be strongly missed and loved. May you all find happiness and peace in your new home." As Giles finished speaking Willow began chanting the transportation spell.
Dawn, Spike, Xander and Faith were standing holding hands in a circle in the living room. They were each carrying backpacks that had been magically enlarged to more than a normal backpack. Each person were bringing the typical - clothing, food, weapons, books plus entertainment items. Willow had also spelled portable DVD and mp3 players to hold 100x more and to recharge with sunlight since they didn't know if they would have access to batteries or electric outlets. They all knew that the likely hood of returning home was small and even then it would be at least fifteen years. During the planning stages they made sure that they did not have existing counterparts in the universe they were traveling to; they either had never been born there or had died years before.
Unfortunately these extreme travel plans were necessary for two serious reasons. The first being a prophecy that had been delivered by the newly deceased Cordelia and the recently permanently deceased Drusilla. It mentioned need the White-Knight-Who-Sees-What-Others-Don't, the redeemed dark slayer, the souled & chipped vampire, and the glowing girl grown into a strong witch. The group was already looking for an escape for Spike, Xander and Faith before the prophecy due the second reason. Quentin Travers had manged to survive the Firsts attack on the council. He got together with surviving members of the Initiative scientists and started a very disturbing organization. The group had attempted to take Spike twice already and the last time had been a close call. Willow had a discovered in her hacking that the group also wanted Xander and Faith for dissection and experiments. Dissection for Xander since he been possed several times and had those swim-team fish genes and experiment on Faith since she was one of the oldest living slayers in recorded history. Once it was decided that the four had to be sent away Willow worked double time to create a spell that would prevent mystical tracking. After it was preformed the information would vanish from Willow, Giles, Kennedy, and Buffy's heads. In fifteen years a letter would appear before all three of them with directions on how to contact the others.
There wasn't much Willow could find out about the new universe without tipping her hand to Travers and so the group was trying to prepare for all possibilities. While due to the prophecy they knew there would be some sort of big bad to fight there was still a strong hope among the four that this would get them a fresh start. While they were preparing to leave Giles gave each of them a small gift before wishing them luck. Spike was given a ring that worked like the Gem of Amarra but once it was placed on his finger it could not be removed. Dawn was given a gold locked with a picture of her mother on one side and a picture of Tara on the other. Faith was given a blessed sword that Giles had a specially commissioned for her(it was her first true weapon that didn't belong to someone else first). Xander was a little worried about what Giles could possibly give him as he was pulled aside.
"Xander, there has been a tradition in my family to pass two items on to the first born son in the honor of continuing the watcher tradition. Xander, since the first day in the library you have been like a son to me. I know you will continue to make me proud in the new universe your going to. Never under estimate yourself, you have been vital to the our fight and I know you will be in the new fight. I have hope that even in this new fight you will find a peace of mind and happiness. Good Luck, son" And that was how Xander ended up with an antique crossbow and a Slayer/Watcher handbook. That was also how Giles ended up cleaning his glasses with red-rimmed eyes. Both men though hugged and quickly swallowed their emotions before returning to their previous positions.
As Willow entered the middle of the chant and a glow started everyone gripped their hands tighter. They were all excited and scared about what this future world would bring them. Then there was a tug, a bright light and they were gone. Buffy collapsed in Giles arms sobbing while Willow collapsed into Kennedy's arms. All of them said a silent good-bye and good luck to their vanished friends.
Let me know if you what you think and what you want the pairings to be. Also what about the idea of Xander raising a child brought to him by Anya's old boss(can't think of the name).
