To say Xander was upset was an understatement. He laid on his bed staring at the ceiling, shaking with emotions. The event of earlier replays in his head. The blood, the sadness in his friend's face. Losing one of his best friends.

They went back to Rock Porium and tried to come up with some excuse. Some excuse about where they went and why Vida wasn't with them. They told him that Vida was exhausted and she went to get some sleep. While Toby took it.. he looked very concern with their tear stricken faces. It was halfway through the day where decided it was best they go home and rest up from whatever happened

Xander stormed home, ignoring his parents' questions and his sister's request to play. He locked himself in his room and just laid there for hours

"Hey Xander..? Are you doing okay there?" His dad knocked on the door. "Dinner's ready. Are you hungry?"

"No… Xander mumbled. "Eat.. before me.."

"Alright.. Uh.. if you need us, we're here." Hearing the footsteps walk away, Xander sits up and turns the lights on. He didn't have the energy to turn on earlier. Now he could see himself in the mirror he had on the wall

His hair was a mess, still in his clothes from work and his face looked horrible. He looked at the mirror angrily

"Why! Why did you let her out of the circle! Clare wasn't a stupid vampire! Why did you let her out!?" Xander yelled.

"You was in middle school, getting picked on by kids. You hurt some of them because you were stupid and thought that would make me cool. Even to my friends right now, you hurted them." He continue to rant. His hands went for mirror as he lifts it up

"But then they came to save you. Save you from those jerks who you thought as friends. Chip and Madison would tell those idiots off but Vida.. hah. She would beat them up even if it meant she would gets weeks of detention. She said she would protect you." Xander's grip on the mirror tightens. It slightly cracks and that unleashes the bubbling emotions.

"Why! Why couldn't you have helped her! Why couldn't have taken it! WHY DID YOU LET CHIP KILL HER!"

The next thing Xander hears is glass smashing. He snaps out of the yelling and looks down. He smashed the mirror onto the ground. The shards are everywhere and Xander just sinks down. He couldn't care that the some of the shards were cutting his legs

"Why couldn't I save her…?" Xander whispers as tears come. "Why…"

Frantic knocks and talking come but Xander doesn't answer. The door busts open and his dad rushed in.

"Are you okay!? What happened?!" He asked. Xander just cries and his dad comes down and hug him. Confusion is on his face until the phone rings. He flips his phone open.

"Hey..Alex.. does Xander know.. that.. Vi-da.. is dead.."

"What..? What happened?
