Xander glared at Cordelia Chase from his prison this is all her fault and his as well and to think if he had only checked the costume and spotted the one thing that would make a world of difference.


Earlier that Day

Xander came into Ethan's not in the best of moods considering the woman in front of him. Xander lost a bet to the Sunnydale mean queen and now he has to dress as whatever she wants. Who would have thought Harmony was a history wiz.

Cordelia looked over to the female costumes. "Hmm, well here's one."

Xander's eyes shot out in fear looking at the white leotard. No way is he going as Powergirl. "No gender benders remember."

Cordy sighed that was her rule anyway. God gave her two incredible presents she wasn't wasting them dressing as a guy. "OK, besides I'm sure I can find a superman costume in spandex…" Cordelia stopped and saw something even better. "Or, something far more embarrassing in spandex!"

Xander looked at the costume. What teenager would dress up as a power ranger… even if it is Tommy? Xander looked it over the green and white spandex, the T-rex looking helmet, the little dragon dagger, and even a belt buckle with the power coin. Xander looked at the price and smiled. "Sorry Cor, far out of my budget."

Cordy had an evil smile holding up her dad's credit card. "Never leave home without it."


Willow looked at her own body oh this is bad. She turns around hearing a familiar tune it's different to what she Xander, and Jessie heard watching the show while babysitting but so many kids had that toy it's hard not to know what it is.

Willow ran up and saw the green ranger fighting a little band of demons off and easily chasing them off. Willow smiled seeing Xander wasn't hurt. "Xander are you OK?"

Xander looked at her confused. "Who are you?"

Willow looked at him his height. He seems shorter. Did he shrink? "Xander you shrunk… wait, I was a ghost, and now I am a ghost. And you were dressed as Tommy and now you really are Tommy?"

"I'm afraid I don't know Tommy?" Green ranger supplied.

Willow smiled at that. "Oh good, I'm still Willow so you're still Xander."

Xander shakes his head. "I have no idea who Xander is."

Willow looked at him getting frustrated. "For the love of… if you're not Xander and you're not Tommy who the hell are you?"

"Yamato Tribe Knight, Burai"

Willow looked at him for a quiet moment. "Oh" Who the hell is Burai? "Do you mind following me until we can find…" Willow's eyes lit up in relief as she ran over and Burai followed. "Buffy!"

Burai stared at the demons coming at him and took a fighting stance as Buffy simply fainted. Burai rushed the two demons in a fury punching one in the face and sweeping the legs of another knocking both demons to the ground.

Willow watched as Xander took out a knife as both demons get to their feet. "No wait; they're little kids in there."

Burai looked at her Bandora's doing no doubt. Can't go back to safety with kids in danger can't fight now what? "Is there a place we can hide so we can figure out what to do?"

Willow thought on it before replying. "Uh yeah, Buffy's house it's not that far."


Burai carried Buffy in as Willow walked behind them. Burai gently put her down only to hear screaming outside as he turned to see a Catwoman being chased by a monster. Burai sighed in exasperation wanting to know what the hell is happening here. He went out side and ran after the woman leaping into the air over her head and kicking the demon away knocking him down.

Cordy smiled in relief seeing him. "Xander, did you get shorter?"

Burai rolled his eyes and grabbed her by the arm pulling her back into the house. Cordy looked at him he saved her again.

Willow looked at Cordy. "OK your name is Cordelia you're not a cat."

"Thanks Willow, you went crazy why?" Cordy asked.

Willow looked at her flabbergasted. "Wait you remember?"

"Yeah, lucky me." Cordy replied as she turned to Xander. "And what happened to him he's barely taller then Buffy?"

Willow looked at Lady Buffy and the green ranger. "They have no idea who they are its some kind of amnesia. Watch them while I go talk to Giles."

Cordy looked at Buffy. "Who put her in charge?"

Buffy's eyes widen seeing Willow leave through the door. Burai watched and wondered if that's what awaited him in ten hours.


Burai and Buffy watched as a dark haired man entered the house and took a moment to collect himself. "Thank god you are alright its total chaos out there." Angel looked at Buffy. "What happened to your hair?" Angel looked at Xander in his green ranger getup and did everything he could to not laugh at the teen. "Xander… nice"

Burai could tell from the sarcasm in his voice it was an insult so he replied with a kick to the vampire's head. "You dare mock me?"

Angel got to his feet and tried to reply with a punch to the face and Burai blocked it and tried a punch with his free hand that Angel caught. Both freed their hands and Angel went to sweep Harris' legs wondering how the whelp is doing this as Burai jumps over the attack and tries a roundhouse that Angel ducked under. But didn't see Xander pull out a knife and swipe it across his arm drawing blood and forcing his game face out.

Buffy screamed in terror at Angel's face and ran out of the room as Cordelia ran in.

"Nobody kill anyone… please." Cordelia pleaded before she pointed to Xander. "He has amnesia."

"He's a monster." Burai replied pointing at the smug vampire.

Cordy nodded. "But he's a good one, like a care bear with fangs."

Angel looked at the door. "So if Xander is really the green ranger then Buffy… Oh god we have to help her."

"Big mighty slayer can take care of herself." Cordy pointed out.

Angel shakes his head. "Buffy can take care of herself. A 17th century bimbo can't it made them easy meals. We have to find her now." Burai took the lead running from the house with Angel following just as quick after with Cordelia giving chase.


Burai saw Buffy being harassed by a pirate and easily tackled him to the ground but the pirate was the first one up. The pirate took his sword and swung it down to cut his head in two and get back to Buffy but Burai easily blocked the attack with his dagger and kicked his opponent in the head knocking the pirate out. Burai looked at him and held a firm grip on the dagger, attack a lady he'll show this pirate something. Burai looked at the startled noblewoman and saw he was scaring her and chose to put the dagger away. There's enough blood on his hands already and thanks to Geki he's trying to do good with the little time he has left. Though knocking out that pirate felt really good to him for some reason.

The three turned around seeing Willow running up to them. "Guys you have to get back inside."

Angel sees Spike coming and quickly grabs Buffy as he carries her into a warehouse. Burai put his hands together in a motion resembling a videogame and created an energy ball he threw and stunned Spike and the others before he fled into the warehouse.


Spike smiled inching closer to Buffy knowing the demons have poof and the power rangers, until he heard a little kid starting to cry. Spike turned around and looked down and saw Buffy's wig in his hand. Uh oh.

Buffy smiled getting to her feet. "Hi honey, I'm home."

Buffy brutally pummeled Spike with a smile until he fled. Damn Miss Priss for throwing all three of her stakes at passing cars thinking they were demons. After tonight a dusty Spike would have been a very happy ending. Buffy looked at Angel and smiled when he asked if she was OK and the two left.

Cordy rolled her eyes. "Gee, it felt like I was here." She looked around and saw Xander and Willow had disappeared too. "What is this ditch kids on the cheerleader day?"


Xander opened his eyes and saw the dragon ranger costume has disappeared with the dragon buckler. He took a moment to view his surroundings it seems to be a white cave like it snowed in here but the water is very warm and there's a bed here along with a fridge. Xander looked inside and saw an endless supply of twinkees candy water and food.

Xander went to the other end and his eyes lit up in fear seeing a metallic demon with evil red eyes. "Demon" Xander quickly reached for the gold belt buckle but nothing was there and the demon put his hands up.

"Easy Mr. Harris, I'm a good guy I swear. You've been in here for six hours and I never even took a nibble." The demon replied.

"Oh really, then tell me what is your name?" Xander asked.

"Skip"

Xander looked at the demon and did all he could not to laugh.

"Hey!" Skip protested.

Xander put his hands up. "I'm sorry, it's just Skip."

"You know a little gratitude wouldn't hurt considering I just saved your life Lavelle." Skip replied.

Xander stopped. "I'm sorry and what do you mean saved my life."

"Who did you go as on Halloween?" Skip asked

Xander quivered in fear as the realization hit. "No! This is my original body… it can't…how?" He turned to Skip and pointed. "But Burai got squished by rocks like a bug not me."

Skip frowned poor kid. "Doesn't matter the magic that kept Burai alive mixed with the chaos magic."

"How long do I have?" Xander asked.

Skip looked at him before. "Just like Burai forty hours on earth since the spell was cast. Think of this as your lapse less room time freezes for you while you are in here. But as soon as you go back to earth the clock starts running again."

Xander did the math. "Two hours as Burai that means thirty eight hours left."

Skip pointed down and Xander looked at a digital watch on his arm that read 38:04:17 as the demon explained. "They thought it would suit you better then a candle but that's here too."

Xander looked at the candle that is now his very lifeline to the little time he has left as it burns bright. This is Cordy's fault. "How do I get back to earth?"

Skip held up Burai's dagger the zyusouken. "The same way he did."

"Well, at least I get a free knife out of the deal." Xander quipped taking the dagger and he can use his fee time to practice Burai's fighting skills so he doesn't forget it.

Skip put his hand on his shoulder sympathetically. "Sorry kid but this was the best we could do on such short notice. You can check in on your friends by just thinking really hard and looking into the water pond over there. You can also get all the cable channels there if you want even girl on girl no one can see in here, I recommend Jurassic Park."

Xander looked at what has become his life. He guesses its better then death. "Thanks Skip."

Skip nodded she doesn't know why his boss went through all the trouble of setting this up but as long as he's getting paid… he can be a good Samaritan. "Yeah well we still expect you to do important things in this world kid, even on borrowed time."

Skip disappeared and Xander looked at the water focusing hard on his friends as an image of Buffy and Willow came up in the library unaware he's missing so far. If only he had made sure the belt buckler said MMPR instead of Zyu. He looks down at his weapon and thinks it over. "I wonder if I can summon Dragon Caesar with this thing."
