Prologue

Xander looked outside of his window in his apartment in the Burj Khalifa tower in down town Dubai. Looking at himself in the reflection of the window he could see the shimmering of what looked like diamonds on his skin from the sun, it was beautiful but at the same time it just reminded him of what he had become.

Shaking his head at the irony of it all, he had been fighting vampires all his life and now he had become one or this universe version of it. It was strange to think that a vampire could walk in the sun and be nearly indestructible at least it these vampires kept their souls and that was something he thanked what ever powers that had thought up this universe.

Getting use to not sleeping he could manged but one thing he would never ever not in a million years and not even if hell froze over would he forgive the creature that had bit him and subsequently turned him in to a sparkly vampire was that Xander could not eat twinkies any more. Sure he could eat them but they didn´t taste the same as the had done all that deliciousness goodness that was the almighty twinky had been taken from him and for Xander that was a fate worse then death and add to that he would not die of old age or disease it was a very cruel punishment.

The vampire that had turned him had expected Xander to turn on him because of Xander´s thirst but what the vampire hadn´t expected was Xander´s gift. It had seamed that leftovers from his stay in Sunnydale like the primal Hyena and Xander almost turning in to the fish monster when he joined the swim team had reacted to the venom in some way that made Xander different then the ordinary vampire.

For one thing he had a second form which was triggered by anger and he had been plenty angry when he woke up and changed right then and their. From 6 feet to 9 and adding a hole lot of pounds to his muscle mass. Big hands with brown/black claws at the end of the fingers and there was even webbing in between them to make it easier to swim. His head changed as well to a more oval shape and his teeth where like a great white razor sharp and lots of them and his eyes kept the red color but there where a yellow tint to it around the edge that made him look hungry.

In this form he was a lot strong then a newborn should be and he was all instincts when he woke up and only recognizing a threat and acted on it and before he knew it the vampire was ripped to peaces although this didn´t kill him. No it took him a while to heal but the vampire eventually healed and Xander had not know what to do at that time but after the first shock of waking up as a vampire he calmed down and reverted back to his base shape.

It was a hard time for him being both repulsed by the thought of drinking blood and yet it made his mouth water at the thought of it and humans all around him smelled so good that it was driving him crazy but he refused to drink until he was starved that he snapped and attacked. It had not been a pretty sight to behold when he came out of his crazed hunger seeing the mindless slaughter he had caused. A hole village had been decimated from what he had done and he was covered from head to toe in blood and flesh from those that he killed.

Xander tried to kill himself many times but failed every time and soon he gave in to the hunger but this time he didn´t wait until it drove him insane with thirst but he waited until he found a pray that also prayed on others and that is how he spent his time hunting. He discovered that he could charm people and soon he moved up in the world got more and more money people left him loads of money in there wills and after he collected Xander went to an other city and so it went on for a few years until he for the first time encountered a vampire.

It was a couple and they seamed to be okay, Jenny and Mira. It was very tense at first but we started to talk and got along pretty good after a while and that was how he learned about the rules and everything else about the vampire life stile. That encounter changed him because Jenny and Mira had told him that there were vampires that survived on animal blood. From that day he started to hunt animals and even though they didn´t taste that great he could survive on it with out killing humans something he hated to do even thought they were bad people it lifted a huge burden of his shoulders. It made his life better and Xander started to enjoy life once again something he hadn´t done for a while and he started to train with his abilities so that he would be able to use them efficiently.

Xander missed Buffy, Giles and above all he missed Willow and since he had a pack mentality now thanks to his transformation it was worse for him not having anyone he could rely on.

He kept looking out the window in Dubai as he thought about home, it was time for him to find someone to share his life with and where better to start then in America.
