WHITE KNIGHT Part 4/?
Okay. i own nothing. my pride is gone. but my ego is bigger than ever!!
Xander stood panting a very heavy looking broadsword hung limbly from his right hand. " You could take it easy on me ya know?" Ducan stood with his sword in a defensive ready position... " I am." Xander growned and picked up his sword leveling it with his chest pointing toward Duncan. "Come on old man. I'm ready." Duncan still smiled as he walked forward cautiously. one thing that suprised Duncan about Xander was that the young man was cautious in battle. it took many immortals years to learn this in battle. most were not lucky enough to learn it at all. Xander shifted to his right and brought his sword in a side arc finding it blocked by Duncan's lighter Katana. Duncan quickly shifted and took his sword to the inside slicing Xanders stomach. a thin line of blood was shown through the white tank top. "A little close don't ya think?!" Duncan just chuckled as the young man jumped back into a defensive stance. the two began to circle. Duncan talking the entire time. "You think to much Xander. You need to clear your mind. Feel the fight not see it. let your instincts take over." Xander listened carefully to what his teacher said. he relaxed his body to a point of near sleep and began to flow with a grace no one had seen from him. the two immortals moved together. there swords clashing in rythme. Finally Duncan found his opening. he lunged forward his sword inches from skin. Xander saw the sword and for a split second new he was gone. then instinct took over.. Methos who was watching from the sidelines saw Xanders eye's glow a bright blue as he spun away from MacLeod and before either of the older immortals knew what was happening Xanders sword was resting peacefully on Duncan's shoulder. "I win." Xander's eyes grew a brighter blue then turned brown again.. the look of shock on his face was almost comical. but the look of shock on the two immortals faces were almost sad.
Sunnydale..
The scooby gang stood draped in the shadows of trees in a vacant corner of sunnydales main cemetery... Buffy looked around noteing that not many people had come to the funeral.. not even his own parents.. Buffy looked at the ground.. she was supposed to be his friend but she didn't even know about his homelife. She felt terrible. He'd saved her life and she never thanked him. never tried. she was sick with herself she looked to her left to see her mother silent tears running from her eyes. Her mother thought of Xander as a son. Mr. and Mrs Rosenberg were there even Jesse's parents came. Buffy looked to her right to see Willow and Cordelia comforting eachother.. Oz standing back letting Willow grieve. He understood she needed space.. She looked around to see some people from school. his Uncle Rory was in the back. finally her eyes settled on Giles as he stood in front of the grave. He swallowed and wiped his eyes with a tissue before speaking.. " I was asked by Mr. Harris.." Giles pointed to the back of the group to Xanders uncle... " To say a few words for Xander. Xander was like a son to me. In all ways but blood I thought of him as my child. I had times were I was so proud of him I thought I would cry. And I had times when I was so dissappointed I was angry." Giles looked down quietly. Wiping his eyes before he looked up.. " Xander was a wonderful and brave young man. His life was ahead of him. He didn't say anything but he had plans. Though his plans weren't to get a great job and become rich. His plans were simple. He wanted to be here. With his friends. With his family. Xander was the most kind and loyal man I've ever had the previlge of knowing. I.. myself will miss him dearly as i'm sure all of you will as well. Xander was a hero. A true hero. He was. He was a great young man.." Giles looked as if he wanted to say more but found he couldn't he looked up without wiping his eyes. they were filled with unshed tears he turned and walked back to his spot beside Mrs. Summers. Everyone watched as the priest turned and walked toward his spot in the background as each member went to the casket alone.. Cordelia was the first one to the casket. she rested her single red rose on the lid.. " I know your not in there Xander. I know what you did for us. I feel so bad for how I treated you. Out of all the scoobies you were the only one who never held my past against me. I miss you." Cordelia walked away from the casket tears sliding down her face. Her make up was smearing but she just couldn't make herself care.. Joyce went next. She wiped her eyes as she came to the casket and set her rose across Cordelia's.. " I miss you already Xander. It was always you who made Buffy laugh. Always you who went out of there way to make sure everyone was happy. You weren't only my daughters friend Xander. You were my friend. More than my friend. I thought of you as a second child always will. Goodbye Xander.." Joyce walked from the casket fresh tears streaming down her face. Oz was the next to go up. He and Xander weren't close but he thought with a little time they would have been great friends.. Oz talked low so no one could hear him.. " I didn't really know you Xander. But after all you did I consider you a great person. I know why we didn't get along in the beginning.. You didn't think I was good enough for Willow. Well at that thought you and I are in agreement. I'm not. No one is. I'll take care of her for you. I won't. Can't take your place but I will protect her for us both." Oz kinda nodded in the air and walked away from the casket. Mr. and Mrs. Rosenberg walked by on there way to there car. Mrs. Rosenberg dropped a rose as they did.. Jesse's parents had already left.. Willow looked at Buffy and started toward the Casket as she reached it she sighed. "Hey Xand. Yeah its me the Willster." Willow kinda chuckled.. "You called me that when we were kids. I miss you Xander. I'm trying to find a way to bring you back I am. I love you Xand. I don't think I told you that enough but I do. I'm sorry I haven't really been that great a friend for the last few months. I'd understand if you were mad. I wish you were here. So i could tell you how much I love you and how sorry I am.. Goodbye Xander... Goodbye.." Willow walked from the Casket toward her boyfriend Oz.. he face as tear staind as all the others present.. Buffy looked at the casket for what seemed like hours.. Finally she took a step toward it.. then another. She walked slowly toward the empty resting place of one of her best friends. She stopped as she reached the casket and put her left hand on it as she sat her rose where his heart would be. "I'm sorry Xander. For everything. This is all my fault and I can't." Buffy sighed as she started to cry again.. "I wish you were here Xander.. I need you to be here. Like Willow says. Your my rock. Always have been." She paused taking a deep breath. "I've found things about you these last two days that I never thought possible. And I was wrong to doubt how brave and loyal you are. Were. I'm so sorry. I love you Xander. I never told you but I do. I love you." Buffy took a long look at the casket then turned and walked into the arms of her mother. And as the casket was lowered the Scoobie gang took one last mournful look at the empty tomb of there friend. of there rock. Then walked from the silent cemetery in mourning.
Thats all for part 4 of WHITE KNIGHT keep reviewing.. also on the next few part we focus mainly on Sunnydale.. and after that its all Xander.mostly anyway on the next chapter Xander learns more about his new found abilities.. and some which he hasn't found yet.. I can promise that Xander will not get SUPER powered.. he won't be stronger than everything and faster than everything.. basicly i'm saying he won't be unbeatable.. he will have challenges and as he faces these challenges his powers will grow. in the next chapter Xander says his final (or so it seems) goodbye to the scoobs.. thats all for right now. but I'll start writing the next part as soon as I post this.. for some reason this fic just keeps coming.. It might not be that good but remember.. quanity not quality...
WHITE KNIGHT Part 5/?
How many time do I have to type that I don't own it? okay once more.. I DON'T own IT!! there. hope thats the magic number.
so hows the fic so far? better than my first BTVS fic 'The Daywalker'? Damn.. I still have to finish that... Oh well.. here's part 5..
Xander Harris never thought of himself as out of shape. In fact the months before the Acathla incident he thought himself in perfect shape. Duncan pointed out the exact opposite. Xander panted as the two of them jogged down the street. "How many miles so far?" Duncan chuckled at the out of breath immortal. "Only twelve. Eight more to go, then sparing." Xander looked about to cry as Duncan again picked up his pace. Xander tried to keep up. " Why isn't Adam doing this?" Duncan started laughing like Xander said something very funny... Xander just took the time to rest..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sunnydale.... Night after Funeral..
The gang all sat in the Summers house.. All of them silently looking at the floor.. none sure what to say.. Joyce heard a knock on the door and opened it to see a blond vampire looking at her.. "Heya Mrs. S. I gotta talk to slayer gal for a minute. I'll wait out here." Joyce nodded dumbly and stepped aside as Buffy got in the door way.. "What do you want Spike?" Spike stepped back and picked up a box off the porch.. "Easy there slayer. Droops asked me to give you this if he didn't make it. If there's anything in there for me... Uh.. bloody hell. You keep it.. " Spike turned and walked off the porch whistling as he walked away.. Buffy shut the door with her foot and walked back into the den. She sat the box on the table and looked at it till Willow asked.. "What is it Buffy?" Buffy looked at Willow.. "Spike said Xander wanted him to give this to us if he didn't make it.." Buffy reached down and opened the box to find several Video tapes and a note on top.. Buffy looked at it for a second then read it aloud"
'Hey guys.. Guess I'm dead huh.. Ah well knew I wouldn't live forever.. Anyway I just wanted to say goodbye to each of you.. you know kinda get everything off my chest. there's a tape for each of you oh and uh.. and Wills or Buff either of you can have my journal.. G-Man you can have my guitar.. yeah I saw you tuning ole Bessie and I figured you'd love to have a Gibson.. Okay people this is my goodbye to the group.. Also Giles.. Let Angel watch his tape alone.. I'd prefer if you all did it.. But make sure Angel is alone... Bye guys.. Love ya'
The tape went to static but no one in the room moved from there seats.. everyone was shocked Angel was the first to ask the question.. "How did he know I'd be here?" As he said it the tv showed Xander on screen..
'Oh and if your wondering how I knew Angel would be there.. Common sense.. if I failed I knew you would do the spell again. Basically it was either you would curse him or dust him and the second was highly unlikely... ok.. now I really am done.. go on and eject the tape... come on.. hurry up... thats right Buffy..'
Buffy froze on her way to the tv...
'Don't stop...'
The screen went to static with the smiling face of Xander Harris looking at them... Buffy ejected the tape and sat in on top of the tv.. "That was just wierd.." Everyone had a slight chuckle as Buffy began handing out tapes.. Each person left with a slight smile on there face.. Buffy looked at the tape and her right hand and the journal she promised to give Willow tomarrow.. I'll read the journal later. she turned and walked up the stairs toward her room..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Giles sat in front of his T.V. he put the tape in his VCR and it began to play a smiling Xander Harris looked at him..
'Ya know you better apreciate this... you know how long it takes to make seven video's? Oh well.. How's it going G-Man? not so good.. well its nice to know i'm missed but don't cry over it.. You did cry right? Anyway.. I just wanted to tell you I loved you... In a father to son way.. not the other way... EWWW.. Beside there's things i've been wanting to tell you. I know we didn't really start off on the right foot.. for one I was very...very annoying and for another. well thats probably the main reason right there.. But I always respected you Giles.. Always.. remember that.. I gotta go so uh.. one more thing.. I know you play. I know you love music. Do it. I'm not saying go out and try to land a record deal. Just play for people. I always dreamed of just playing in a smoke filled club do it for the both of us G-Man.. Gotta go make Oz'z tape... Bye.'
Giles wiped his eyes a large smile on his face as he shut off the T.V and picked up his guitar.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Joyce sat on her couch looking at the still smiling face of Xander Harris..
'Hey Joyce... With everyone else I started this tape off with a joke.. I don't think I have to do it with you. I always thought of you as my mom that probably sounds corny huh? Well I have. You always looked beneath the surface. When something was bothering me you knew it and you helped me through it. You were more of a mom then my biological one. I just wanted to tell you I love you.. Bye... Mom...'
Joyce ejected the tape and walked out so Angel could use the T.V. When he pressed play he saw a very diffrent looking Xander Harris.. not the smiling boy he saw on the T.V earlier but a man. a very dangerous man..
'I asked you to see this alone so no one would comfort your sorry ass when I'm done saying this. I blame you. to hell with your demon to hell with your soul. Your still YOU. I've done research and the soul doesn't always leave the body when your turned.. as a matter of fact for the soul curse to work the soul must still be in the body. You were just to weak to beat it. So I BLAME YOU. And I swear on everything if you hurt them again I'll be waiting when you get to hell. What I will do to you will make you wish Satan would have got you instead.'
The screen went fuzzy. and Angel stayed on the couch unmoving. bloody tears flowing down his face..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oz sat in front of a smiling Xander.. Again he was smiling.. Oz kinda chuckled.. the boy smiled even when facing death.. had to be impressed..
'Hey Oz.. Look man teach Giles to play the guitar.. I don't think my Gibson deserves to be tortured.. Just kidding Giles could probably teach you a few things.. jam with him.. I'm sure he'd enjoy it. Look now for the serious stuff... I know I don't have to ask you this but Take care of Willow for me. I know we didn't really get along and that was my fault I thought no one was good enough for my Willow. I was wrong. Your a good man Oz. prove me right by staying by her side.. Seya man'
Oz sat on the couch a thoughtful expression on his face before he broke into a genuine smile..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Willow laid on her bed as she pressed play on her remote.. She couldn't help but smile as Xander filled the screen.
'So Wills.. Whats the what? okay.. I'm trying to figure out how to say bye to you. But I can't bring myself to do it.. How about I say goodbye for now. I know your into that magic stuff and I DON'T want you to try bringing me back.. Don't even start to say you never thought about it. I only ask of you one thing. Help her. Don't blame her or leave her. Help her. Okay.. I'm asking the same thing of her right now.. maybe i don't really know since I haven't made her tape yet.. anyway.. stay together. be a group. be a family. Ok Wills. Don't grow apart don't let yourselves grow apart. If they want to leave break out the resolve face and say NO. Say Xander said we stay together. I pass on the legacy of the three musketeers.. You, Oz, and the Buffster. one for all and all for one. Got it? Good. I love you willow.. Your like a sister to me. you are and always were my best friend. So thanks.. and again I love you.. well I gotta go have to go fight in a little over an hour.. Bye!'
Willow looked at the static on the t.v. and sighed a sad sigh. the sad smile on her face backing her sigh up..
Okay thats it for part 5 I know I left Buffy out of the running but you'll see why in the next part.. right now I have a 1800 word report due tomarrow and I haven't even started... I know.. I know irresponsible.. but I work best underpressure... As for the next part.. Xander tells Duncan and Methos of his past. and Buffy gets her goodbye..
Okay. i own nothing. my pride is gone. but my ego is bigger than ever!!
Xander stood panting a very heavy looking broadsword hung limbly from his right hand. " You could take it easy on me ya know?" Ducan stood with his sword in a defensive ready position... " I am." Xander growned and picked up his sword leveling it with his chest pointing toward Duncan. "Come on old man. I'm ready." Duncan still smiled as he walked forward cautiously. one thing that suprised Duncan about Xander was that the young man was cautious in battle. it took many immortals years to learn this in battle. most were not lucky enough to learn it at all.

I know irresponsible.. but I work best underpressure... As for the next part.. Xander tells Duncan and Methos of his past. and Buffy gets her goodbye..
