Still don't own the rights to Buffy or Stargate SG1.

Chapter Three.

You could have heard a pin drop when Whistler dropped his bomb. Male slayers.

Anya was most concerned. "Hey, wait a minute. Only girls can become slayers, Xander is a boy, he gives great orgasms. I'm sure Willow does too, but I like Xanders boy parts." Her eyes widened. "Hey, he does still have them, doesn't he? He hasn't turned into a girl has he?" she said as she reached into Xanders crotch. "Whew." she sighed with relief.

"Ahem, An, not the time, or place." a somewhat embarrassed Xander said. "You could have asked."

"But you like me doing that to you." a confused Anya replied.

"Time and place, An, time and place."

"Hey An, if you've finished playing with Toyboy can Whistler go on?"

"If you're ready." Whistler agreed.

Buffy just picked up the Scythe again. "Talk."

"Right, Slayer. Now where was I, oh right. You see the spell actually contained Slayer DNA, that's how it was able to activate everyone. The first time through it activated those it was meant to, those whose DNA was preset, who had the ability to become slayers. The second time it activated the remaining girls, since it was only meant for girls to become slayers, but when it encountered Xander and Andrew the third time it activated them as well. You see, the second time through, when it activated the other three girls, because of the key energy, it adjusted Xander and Andrew so that they could be activated as well, because their DNA was now receptive. The reason it didn't do it for Giles and Wood, was that they were outside the age range.

Of course it didn't activate everyone at the same time. Those who were meant to be slayers became slayers straight away. With everyone else the change was delayed as the power altered and activated the slayer DNA. The boys weren't changed until they were on the bus as they had been the least prepared, and it took longer to activate them.

Now normally the Powers would have just removed the slayer power from those who shouldn't have had it. Unfortunately, since it was the power of the Key which had caused the change, and since the Key is immune to magic, they found they couldn't do anything to stop what was happening. And once the changes were made the key energy sealed them in place.

To make it worse, since the changes had been made to the DNA itself it meant that from now on slayers could be born, not only called. Since the power that makes a slayer is so strong, so dominant, any children of a slayer will always be slayers even if only one parent is a slayer, though the actual powers of a slayer wouldn't appear until puberty, when the chemical balance of the body is in flux. Which is also the reason slayers could only be called starting at the same time, till just after puberty.

To stop this happening and slayers being born, and further upsetting the balance, and to punish you, the Powers decided that all of those effected by the change would have to be removed from this world, of course since Giles hadn't changed he was moved to LA to look after the next slayer. And that's when the Powers moved you.

They took you out of time, and moved you through many, many dimensions, and back in time 2000 years. Then they moved you a long distance away from Earth to a new world, the furthest away from Earth that is inhabited by humans where you can begin again.

They couldn't move you any further away, and they tried, but they only have any power on worlds where there are humans, so that restricted where they could place you. Safe to say that you are as far away from your home dimension as is possible."

Andrew was certainly excited about that. "So, we're on an alien world? Cool!"

Whistler suddenly began to look uncomfortable, Buffy sighed. "Come on Whistler, what is it you're not telling us?"

"Yes, right, well, um, you see, um, you aren't exactly human anymore. I mean you're mainly human, your children will be able to have children with non slayers, but with your changed DNA you are now a distinct sub species, you might say you're Homo Sapiens Slayer. The beginning of a new race.

Moving you here actually caused more changes. You see every time the bus was moved through the barriers between one dimension and the next the Key released more energy and in the confined space of the bus your bodies became totally saturated in it. To all intents and purposes you are all the Key now, but a much reduced Key. With practice you will be able to open portals, but only in the dimension you are in, you won't be able to move between dimensions. And since it is part of your DNA your children will also have the ability, but even more reduced in power.

The Powers also didn't know it but Anya is pregnant, with twins, congratulations by the way. And during the DNA swapping during the trip changes were made, and since she was the only slayer pregnant, her pregnancy was used as the template for slayer pregnancies and now all slayer females will have twins, either identical or fraternal, and all children sired by a slayer male will also be twins.

Now there's only a few more things you need to know before I go back and the Powers lock the doorway behind me.

First, the Key has been around since the beginning of time, it is immortal, and now because you are part of it, or rather it is part of you, so are you. You are immune to all magic. You cannot die, you cannot even be injured. Of course there is always a price for immortality. Your children will have a longer life span but are mortal. You will outlive them all. Your bodies are perfect, and so are your minds. That means you now have total recall. Or you will when the bus arrives. At the moment you are suspended in time and space so while the changes have occurred, they actually haven't, yet, if you know what I mean. Also since the inability to kill normal humans was encoded in your DNA it's now gone since it was deemed faulty genetic information. Which is just as well as many of your possible enemies in this dimension are human.

Secondly, Xander provided his own contribution to the mix, it seems his hyena possession left some genetic traces which are now part of the slayer gene pool. Like hyenas slayers will always mate for life. And family will always be very important to them.

With all the DNA floating around, um, you are all mated, you've become two families. I'll leave it to you to work out who you are involved with. And, by the way, Anya isn't the only one who's pregnant. You all are. That is the final bond between you."

Whistler smirked, then bowed. "I now bid you adieu."

Before he could disappear Buffy spoke. "I have a message for the Powers, tell them we'll be seeing them."

Uncertainty and perhaps fear past across Whistlers face as he disappeared.

Buffy didn't have any time to congratulate herself as suddenly the bus was lit by light from the outside. They had arrived.

Authors note- I know that hyenas do live in family groups but I don't know if like wolves they mate for life. Since Oz wasn't available I used the hyena possession.
