Buffy, Xander, Angel and Willow all had smiles in the hospital room. Buffy and Xander got put together in the same room so it just made sense to leave them there and save their friends and family the trip. The Gorches are dead and this nightmare is finally over. Vampires using guns who would have thought it. At least the big bad and the school year are practically done. Now they can just hopefully enjoy the summer like last year. Buffy sat back and listened to Willow list off the rest of her accomplishments from tonight. "Wow, I couldn't have been more awe struck if I had done it myself."

Xander nodded in complete agreement. "That was the most bravest thing I've ever heard. Kudos Will"

"Thank you." The redhead replied. Although she admitted it to herself. She never thought she would be the big gun in a situation like this.

Buffy let that word from Xander rest in her head for a moment. Brave courageous… courage. Well that leads to a very important question. "Will, let me see your hands."

Willow held up her hands as Buffy gently held them and looked at the front of them and smiled seeing the triforce insignia on her hand.

"What the heck is that?" Willow asked.

Buffy rolled her eyes. "That would be the triforce of courage." Buffy held up her own hand showing her own. "I have the triforce of wisdom."

Xander let out a chuckle and quickly held his mouth shut.

Buffy glares at him and pointed. "Don't you laugh!"

Angel just smacked him aside the head in his weakened condition it hurt him.

Xander glared at him and smacked him back. "You're dead once I recover. And I just thought it was funny because I always imagined it would be the reverse. No one was smarter then Willow."

Giles rolled her eyes. "Children please"

Xander leaned back, happy too he can't train with his insides stitched shut so he'll rest up till the stitches are out. "So what happens now?"

Buffy shook her head not sure of what happens next. "We stay vigilant; the triforce of power is still out there. Also demons, sadly still drawn to the hellmouth."

Xander rolled his eyes. "Yeah assuming the triforce of power didn't just land on Superman."

"Or Darkseid" Willow offered.

Giles looked at her. Buffy gave him the full rundown on the triforce after he noticed her tattoo glow on occasion. Truth be told since Willow now has courage he is hoping Xander will get power, since it came from a children's game he can't exactly research it. He never even thought something like that could happen. "Thank you Willow, I might never sleep again."

"Or maybe it went to Wonder Woman." Willow offered weakly. The triforce of power chose Ganon it's not so hard to believe a bad guy could get it.

Xander looked at the group. They made it through more or less intact, but one person didn't. "So what happens with Kendra now, I mean she didn't have any family."

Buffy frowned when it was all said and done she knew her mother and her friends would mourn for her. "I don't know. Giles they don't just go well dead girl burn her do they?"

Giles shook his head. They honored their dead at least. "She'll be sent back to her watcher and given a proper burial by him and her family."

Buffy looked at the red bag it's contents going into Xander's arm. "Speaking of problems isn't your alien blood going to cause a bit of a stir?" She can just imagine news crews and doctors flooding their new lab rat.

Xander shook his head. "Nah my alien blood is fine. It passes for human, so does the rest of me as long as I don't have a tail."

Buffy looked at him wide eyed. How come this never came up. "You have a tail!"

Xander laughed. "No, no tail I assure you. If I had a tail you'd know and I'd make Oz's hairy side look like a furball."

"Did I hear my name?" The musician asked as he walked in and gently kissed Willow.

Willow smiled. "Xander was just explaining the difference between werewolves and giant monkeys."
