WHITE KNIGHT part 11.
Xander and Whistler watched as Duncan and Faith embraced. Xander smiled as did whistler. Finally whistler broke the silence. "Time to go kid." Xander nodded as he watched Duncan and Faith walk out into the crowds of people. "Where to now?" Whistler snapped his fingers. Xander looked around the area only flames and scorched earth to be seen. "Why am I back here?" Whistler rolled his eyes. "Its not the same place kid. Just chill here for a year or so. Keep training. there's plenty of demons around. Oh. And don't loose your head. Whistler turned before turning back. "And your here for a reason." Xander nodded as he listened to everything that Whistler said.

Sunnydale~~~~~~~~~~
The scooby gang stood around a gravestone. All of them in tears. Even Faith as she touched the stone on her way by.
BUFFY ANNE SUMMERS Hero, Protector, Savior. 1981-2001 SHE SAVED THE WORLD A LOT.
The scoobs one by one filed out of the cemetery. all hoping she found peace. but thinking she found hell.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
L.A.
Angel, Cordy, Gunn and Wesley walked into Angel Investigations laughing. the laughter stopped as there eyes fell on Willow Rosenberg. "Its Buffy.. She's. She's dead." The room fell in deep silence as everyone looked at Angel.
Okay I know short Part. thats why I posted it with part 11. Next part Xander comes back. Anyone figured out how yet? Also. the Highlander dimension and Buffy dimension are the same. thought I'd clear that up.
WHITE KNIGHT Part 13/?
I don't own it!!!
Okay to clear things up. Buffy died. Then came back. She is still in shock but she went to the real hell instead of heaven so when she got back she was mostly happy instead of sad. no B/S. that makes me sick. okay. Oz kept his promise to Xander and never left. so its a Tara/faith instead of Tara/Willow. Besides Faith always seemed more open to the experience.
L.A.~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Angel stood near Holtz. Both surrounded by what looked like commando's Angel quickly takes a gun from the closest commando and aims it at Lilah. The commando's raise there guns. "Don't shoot!" Lilah yells. Angel smiles. "Yeah you really don't want to. Your bullets won't kill me but mine will kill you and Her FIRST." Angel turns to Holtz who is still holding Connor. Holtz holds Connors neck. "He'll be dead before I hit the ground." Angel nods.. "I know." Holtz starts to back away. "I'm going to leave now. With me he gets to live. Come after me he dies." Angel looks torn but nods. "Take him." Sahjhan looks at them dumbly. "Whoah. No. What is wrong with you people?" Lilah and Holtz both yell shut up as they stare at Angel. Holtz looks at Angel. "I will take good care of him. As if he were my own son. He'll never even know you existed. But come after me and...." He lets the threat run on. "You will though. Maybe I should." Holtz moves his hand toward Connors throat. Angel panicks.. "No. Take him. Please." Holtz nods and turns toward a car as Sahjhan raises his arms. "Lekko Najine Forkahdio!" The ground shakes and lightning begins to strike. A large portal appears in front of everyone. "What your looking into is Quortoth the darkest of the dark worlds. So I can...:" He stops talking as he notices a figure walking out of the portal. The young mans cloths in tatters and his hair pulled back in a ponytail. He had a ruff looking beard as he raised his head. He walked straight toward Holtz's back turning him around and grabbing Connor. He looked at the child as he threw Holtz into the portal. He walked toward Angel and handed him the baby. " Lets get the kid out of here deadboy. ." Angel looked at the young man in shock but nodded getting the car behind him. Xander looked at everyone. "We'll be leaving now." He turns to Sahjhan. "The powers said hi. Oh and for screwing with time. I think your getting a gift." Angel started the car as Xander got in. The commando's and Sahjhan are in to much shock to give chase. Angel and Xander sat in the car as Angel drove toward the hyperion. "Is it really you Xander?" Xander nodded still looking out the windshield. "Yea Deadboy its me. So ya got a kid huh? Poor thing." Angel actually chuckled a little as they pulled up to the hotel. Both men got out Angel carrying Connor. Angel stopped Xander before he could go inside. "Why did you help me?" Xander smiled at him slightly. "Its my job deadboy. Come on. You can fill me in on the happenin's of the hellmouth." Angel smiled as they walked into the hotel.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"She died? That basterd lied to me!!" a freshly shaven and clothed Xander Harris yelled. Angel looked bewildered. "But Willow said she's back now." Xander nodded standing up. "I have to get to Sunnydale. Take care of the kid deadboy. He's got a hell of a future." Angel didn't understand but didn't have time to voice his questions as Xander ran out of the hotel.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Xander sped by the Welcome to sunnydale sign The tachometer on the stolen Honda was steady on 140mph. His mind was a roller coaster before he finally calmed down. looking at his watch he saw it was 10 o'clock at night. If her patrol patterns didn't change she would be in westside right now. He turned onto a side street speeding toward the cemetery. A smile on his face as he thought of seeing the most beutiful woman in the world once again. He slowed the bike to a stop outside the gates and put it on the kick stand. he surveyed the area around him. not sure which way to go he just walked straight. knowing that one of two things would find him. the good guys or the bad guys. Right now he wanted both. He heard the talking of two women. One he recognized it was Buffy. He smiled just hearing her voice. The other one was unfamiliar. Xander stepped out of the shadows in front of the two girls. "Hey Buff. Whats the what?" Buffy just stared in open mouthed shock. the other girl looked between the two until Xander looked at her. "Xander Harris. And you are?" At this the other girls mouth dropped open both looked very shocked. Xander looked at them. "Not exactly the welcome I was hoping for." Buffy looked at him then in a second he had a crying slayer with her arms wrapped around his chest. He smiled as he hugged her back. Nodding to the girl behind Buffy. Buffy looked up at him. "How?" Xander smiles at her. "Long story. I'll tell everyone at once okay?" Buffy nodded still not letting go. Not wanting this to be a dream. not wanting him to leave again. Faith walked up to Buffy and tapped her on the shoulder. "If you want us to get back your going to have to let him go B." Buffy pulled away slowly. Xander smiled. "Okay. I've been gone a while. Where do you have the scooby meetings?" Buffy couldn't wipe the smile off her face. Faith noticed and just stood back. "The Magic Box. Giles own is now." Xande smiled. "G-Man owns the magic box. Didn't see that coming." Xander began to walk away. Buffy grabbed him. "Your not going anywhere." Xander smiled slightly. "I have to get my bike Buff." Buffy still didn't want to let him go. Faith noticed. "Ride with him B. I'll take Jeeves's car." Buffy nodded her thanks to the other slayer as she and Xander walked away. "Thanks Faith." As Xander and Buffy reached the bike Xander had to ask a question. "Why did you just trust me?" Buffy looked at him in suprise then smiled. "I just knew. Or maybe I just didn't care. Your back." Xander smiled at her and straddled the bike she got on behind him. "Where did you get the bike?" Xander smiled as he gunned the throttle sending the cycle blazing down the street. "Stole it." "You WHAT?!!!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Xander stood leaning against the counter in the magic box. He looked at the shocked yet happy faces of his friends. Giles was the most suprised as Xander walked in. It seemed Giles spent two years looking for a way to get Xander back. Not being able to find a witch powerful enough to help. Xander was happy. He was home. Willow was still crying but had stopped babbiling. Buffy was smiling as was Oz. Xander was waiting for them to speak when no one did he decided to break the silence. "I'll tell you my story after you fill me in on what I missed. Deal?" Giles cleared his throat. "Yes. I believe that will work. After you... left?" Xander nodded. " The next year we faced the mayor who was trying to become a first circle demon. We had to destroy the highschool to stop him." Xander smiled. "I knew something good had to happen. Wish I was here to flip the switch G-Man." Buffy, Willow, Oz, and Faith snickered. Giles wiped his glasses. Except Buffy took over. "The next big bad was a human, Machine, Demon hybrid that our government created." Xander nodded already knowing everything that happend from Whistler. He just wanted to hear it from people he knew. Although he decided to stop. "Okay. I already know everything. I was just trying to annoy you. I'm losing my touch." Everyone looked at him in shock. "Whistler told me." Buffy nodded. She met Whistler after Xander walked into the portal. He said she had to get over it. She really didn't like him. Giles looked at Xander. " Now. Would you mind telling us your story?" Xander smiled. " Not at all G-Man." Xander seemed to look for the words. "After I walked into the portal I was in hell for what I later found out was two weeks. Whistler came to see me and offered me a way out of hell. And a way to help all of you. They offered me a job. With no pay. As there champion." Giles gasped loudly. "Dear lord." Xander nods. "That sums it up. So. Anyway I took the job. I was trained by an Immortal by the name of Duncan MacLeod." Giles again looked shocked. Xander looked at him telling him to elaberate. "I heard that the Highlander was recently in an impossible fight. His watcher said that a newcomer helped turn the fight." Xander smiled crypticly. "Anyway. I was trained then sent back to a dimension called Quartoth. Which is basically a hell dimension. A demon named Sahjhan opened it trying to get rid of Angels son. I came out and Angel and I saved his son. Now I'm here." No one really knew what to say. Xander looked over at Faith who was licking her lips looking at him. He smiled slightly and looked at Buffy who seemed to be doing the same thing. At that point he was kind of afraid to look at Giles or Oz so he looked at a smiling Willow. He turned as two women came into the magic box the younger one saw him and in a blur had her hands wrapped around him. He smiled and hugged her thanking god that Whistler filled him in on everything. "Hey Dawn-Patrol. Whats happenin?" Dawn didn't say anything as she simply held on to him. Xander looked up and smiled at the blond that walked in with her. "And you must be Faiths girlfriend Tara. I'm Xander nice to meet you." "Nice to m-meet y-you t-two." Xander smiles as does Tara. Then Xander looks around the room.. "Only one thing is missing. And he's about to walk through the door."
Rob. I'm still working on it I'm just not to happy with this chapter. thought I would try and revise it a little before I sent it in. Hope you like it.
White Knight Part 14/?
Damn. I read and reread that last part and I still made a big mistake. I'll repost it and have it fixed. anyway on with the part. Giles knows Xander is hiding something about his "job".
Everyone looked toward the door as Spike walked in. He looked at Xander with wide eyes. "Droops." Xander laughed. "Yeah Billy. I'm back." Spike chuckles. "I would say i'm glad to see you but I'm not." Xander still has Dawn attatched to his waist so he can't move he just nods to Spike and looks back at the stuned faces of the group. Finally Buffy ask. "How did you know?" Spike looks at her. "How did he know what?" Xander smirks. "Champion remember." Spike looks at him again. "How did he know what?" Buffy glares at Xander. "Hey I just got back don't glare at me. This is a time for happy faces." Spike is getting pissed. "HOW. DID. HE. KNOW. WHAT?!?!?!" Xander looks at him. "nevermind Spike." Spike sneers. "Bloody stupid wankers." Xander laughs as Spike leans up against the wall. Giles is still in watcher mode. "Xander can you explain to me what this 'Champion' does?" Xander sighs. "Giles I just got back. I want to hang out with my family. So sit down and shut up about the champion thing. I'll explain it tomarrow." Giles nods somewhat reluctantly. "Very well." Spike is still on the wall. "Come on droops. We'll go to Willy's you can buy me a mug o`blood." Xander chuckles. "Tomarrow Spike." Xander turns back to the table to see Tara and Faith getting up. "And where do you think your going?" Tara looks at him as does Faith. "You said you wanted to be with your friends." Xander nods. "Thats right. And friends of my friends are my friends. or in your case Family. I'm now your big brother." Both girls smiled as they sat back down. Dawn and Buffy both have disgusted looks on there faces Xander smiles at them. "Although if any of you think I'm sexy the whole family thing never happened." Spike chuckles. "Like that'll bloody happen." Xander smiles at him. "Shut up Spike. I'm back five minutes and already you insult my ego." Spike shrugs. "Its a gift." Xander sighs then looks at Giles. "How did you put up with him?" Giles shrugs. "He reminded me of you actually. Well except for the wanting to kill something part." Xander looks at Giles in disgust. then turns back to the group. "He didn't just say that." They all nod giggling Oz is just sitting with his eyebrows raised. Xander sighs. "Well anyway I need to make a phone call." Giles points to the phone behind the counter. "Is it long distance?" Xander nods. At Giles's frown he smiles. "I'll pay for it G-man. Don't worry." Giles nodded as Xander walked to the phone and dialed a number from memory. "Hey Duncan. Yeah its me. Man I'm back In SunnyD. I need you to send me my license and documents. Yeah the bank account numbers to. You think I'm giving you any money? Tell Methos I said Hi. yeah talk to you later. Bye." Xander hangs up the phone and looks at the group. "Anyone have a place I can stay for a day or two?" Both Buffy and Dawns hands shut up into the air. Xander smiles. "Guess I'm staying at Casa De Summers." He walked back around the room. "Whats say we go now. I'm actually kinda tired." As the two girls nod the three walk from the magic box waving as they go. Giles looks at everyone he's smiling. "He's back."
~~~~~~~~~~~
Xander followed Buffy and Dawn into the house. He looked around and saw that little had changed in the years of his abscense.Although without Joyce it seemed less homey than before. Buffy pointed at Dawn. "You bed." Dawn looked like she was going to protest but finally nodded. "I'm glad your back Xand." Xander smiled hugging her. "Glad to be back. Seeya in the morning Dawnster." Dawn smiled as she walked quickly up the stairs to her room leaving Buffy and Xander in the living room. Buffy smiles and points to the couch Xander nods and the both take a seat. Buffy looks at him. "So?" Xander looks confused. "So." Buffy sighs. "How have you been Xander?" Xander smiles sadly. "Good Buff. Not great. But okay." Buffy looks at him. "I know how you feel." Xander smiles sadly. "I wish you didn't." He looks at the floor. "I'm sorry I wasn't here Buff." Buffy looks at him in shock. "You couldn't be here Xander. If anyone should apologize its me." Buffy has silent tears running down her face and Xander wraps his arm around her and pulls her close. "You don't have a reason to say sorry Buff. No reason at all." They two sit in silence arms around eachother as they slowly let sleep overtake them.
Teri: You've reviewed all of my BTVS fics. Thanks. It really helps me write when i get feedback.
Harry: Thanks for the confidence boost. I might see about posting it there. But at this point i don't think my writing skills are good enough to be classed with Danii and Michael Wilson. Or any of the other talented writers at the wonderverse site.
malaskor: I wrote this story months ago and am just reposting it right now so I can post the sequel in the next week or so. Format on the sequel CHAMPIONS will be better. regina: I'll do my best to keep up with demand. Which is really easy since there isn't much. lol
Thanks to all that reviewed and keep it up if you can.
Xander and Whistler watched as Duncan and Faith embraced. Xander smiled as did whistler. Finally whistler broke the silence. "Time to go kid."

malaskor: I wrote this story months ago and am just reposting it right now so I can post the sequel in the next week or so. Format on the sequel CHAMPIONS will be better. regina: I'll do my best to keep up with demand. Which is really easy since there isn't much. lol
Thanks to all that reviewed and keep it up if you can.
