Part 7/?
Xander, Riley and Graham walked into the class.. all looked extremely tired.. Xander's hair was straight up and he had morning stuble... He sat beside Buffy and Graham sat beside him.. Riley sat at his desk..
Buffy: You look tired..
Xander looked at her..
Xander: Damn Triplets...
Graham just put his head on his desk and chuckled.. Riley felt a smile cross his face... Buffy for a moment glared at him.. everyone but Xander caught the angry look.. Xander's head was on his desk as was Grahams and Rileys on theres through the whole class... As the professor dismissed the class Buffy grabed Xander and pulled him out of the class..
Buffy: Come on.. Were going to Giles's..
Xander nodded and followed Buffy out the door.. waving to the others.... They talks as they walk down the sidewalk..
Xander: So whats up Buffs?
Buffy looked at him finally noticing she was still holding his hand... but she didn't let go....
Buffy: A certain blond vampire came to Giles's last night..
Buffy looked at Xander.. He looked curious...
Xander: When did Spike get back to town?
Buffy shrugs..
Buffy: You tell me...
Xander raises his eyebrows..
Xander: Whats that supposed to mean..
They walk into Giles's he drops the act..
Xander: I didn't know he was back till yesterday Buffs...
Buffy looked at him..
Buffy: So its true? Your a soldier boy...
Xander looked hurt..
Xander: I prefer soldier MAN.... And beside I'm a civie I just uh.. Help out...
Xander turned to a chained up Spike..
Xander: Can I borrow Mr. Pointy?
He smiles really big at Buffy..
Spike: Is this about what I called the slayer? I would say i'm sorry but I'm not.. Beside she won't let you dust me... I'm helpless....
Xander smirks at him..
Xander: I have a better idea anyway.. You work for us now... We get you blood.. you help keep the demon population to a minimum.. otherwise.. I'll dust you...
Spike seemed in thought..
Spike: Only if the slayer gives the occasional shag..
Buffy pulled out Mr. Pointy...
Spike: Only kidding... Jeez.. No bloody sense of humor... deal...
Xander smirked..
Xander: Gotta go Buff... And if he says one more thing about you tell me.. I'll be happy to break his neck a few times...
Spike snorted..
Spike: Like you could..
Xander looked at him and raised his eyebrows..
Xander: How would you like a chip that hurts evertime you look at a woman?
Spike closes his eyes and sighs..
Spike: You win...
Xander looked around the room...
Xander: Where's Giles?
Buffy kinda looks around the room..
Xander: Afraid he'd get blood on him?
Buffy looks at the floor.. Xander chuckles..
Xander: Look I have to go.. Got a date with the triplets tonight..
Buffy glares at him and he smiles..
Xander: What.. A guy can dream can't he? Actually if I could dream it would only be of Buffy in the Buff...
Xander closes his eyes and smiles.. Buffy hits him playfully on the arm...
Buffy: Your lucky I'll let you get away with that..
Xander chuckled..
Spike: Oh.. The soden poofs are in love...
Xander and Buffy glared at him...Spike smiled....
Xander: I haven't completely talked myself out of dusting you... I gotta go.. Seeya Buff...
Xander looked at her from head to toe and looked at her face.. raising his eyebrows as she pushed him out the door... She followed closing it behind her..
Buffy: You get dumber and dumber..
Xander looks at her in mock shock..
Xander: I do not.. I'm deep I tell ya.. Deep... I'm as Deep as the ocean..
Buffy raises her eyebrows looking at him..
Xander: An olympic size swimming pool?
Buffy frowns...
Xander: A kiddie pool from the mall?
Buffy smiles..
Buffy: Maybe a little deeper than that...
Xander sighs..
Xander: Nice to know what you think of me Buff.... For a split second I thought you liked me..
Buffy smiles and blushes taking Xander by suprise..
Buffy: You know if you ever get self confidence you could have anywoman you want..
Xander looks at her..
Xander: The one I want is out of my league...
Xander smiles at her as he turns to leave...
Buffy: No one is out of your league Xand.....
Xander smiles at her once more as he walks toward his house... Xander walks into the warehouse.. he looks at his bike and moves to the weapons locker.. He walks out in full hunting gear...
Adam: So?
Xander looks at him..
Adam: Did you infiltrate the compound?
Xander nods..
Xander: They don't kill demons.. they capture them for study.. I don't trust them... And I think the leader.. Maggie Walsh.. May know something about me.. they had vampire detectors.. I don't know if I sat any off but....
Adam nods his head..
Adam: Just be carefull... I have orders from the council to tell the slayer of our operation... I thought I'd tell you ahead of time..
Xander sighs and nods..
Xander: Thanks.. I guess I'll head out... Maybe if I kill something I'll feel better..
Xander walked into his apartment building.. as he looked up from the floor he saw the woman of his dreams...
Buffy: She ruined my leather pants........
Xander nodded and opened his door...
Xander: Welcome to OUR humble abode..... Take a look around.. those two rooms are free...
Xander walked into the bathroom and opened the medicine cabinet... He pulled out a syringe gun and a mouth guard... he sat on the sink and put the guard in his mouth biting down.. he quickly injected the serum into his vien... he began convulseing as he fell from the sink with a dull thump.. he stood up shakily and replaced the mouth gaurd and gun... and hobbled out of the bathroom to his bed....
Buffy: Are you okay? Did you fall?
Xander chuckled..
Xander: Slipped... I'm okay... Hows the room?
Buffy noticed how his breathing was uneven and even forced.. she walked over to the bed and felt his pulse...
Buffy: Damn Xan.. Did you run a marathon?
Xander chuckled..
Xander: Nah.. Don't think I'd make it right now... So is your roomate a demon?
Buffy frowns..
Buffy: No.. Just very annoying...
Xander chuckles..
Xander: Well.. You can stay here as long as you want... My shaver is off limits..
Buffy giggled..
Buffy: I think I have my own Xand....
Buffy laid down beside him.. Xander eyes are closed and his breathing has just slowed down...
Xander: Your lucky I have will power... Most men with a beutiful woman in there bed would jump them...
Buffy looked at him with raised eyebrows..
Buffy: You don't have the guts...
Xander raised his head to look at her..
Xander: You insult my manlyness... this means war...
Xander quickly reached over and began tickling her...
Buffy: St...Stop.. Okay.. I give.. I give..
Both are laughing as they lay on the bed...
Buffy: Do you ever miss highschool?
Xander looked in thought..
Xander: No.. I miss us in highschool.. inseperable..well almost..
Buffy looked at him..
Buffy: Whats that supposed to mean?
Xander looked at her and frowned..
Xander: Look Buff.. I don't want to fight with you..
Buffy didn't stop glaring..
Xander: fine... You all tried to get rid of me a couple of times...
Buffy looked down..
Buffy: I.. We.. Just didn't want you to get hurt.. I don't think I could live with myself if you got hurt..
Xander wrapped his arm around her shoulders..
Xander: I feel the same way about you Buff...
With this the duo fell into a comfortable silence and let sleep overtake them.....
Thats part 7.. so how is it.. I know I'm centering on certain characters right now but I'll bring the rest of the group in soon... Also... the chase for an HST could reveal Xander's secret.. on the next Thrilling (Yawn) part of The Daywalker.....
Part 8/?
Riley and Graham walked through the graveyard..
Graham: Where's Xander?
Riley looked around..
Riley: He took the other side... Man its a quiet night...
Before Graham could answer he went flying.. Riley turned quickly but not quick enough as he to was hit and knocked into the side of a crypt.. Xander ran from the side and jump kicked the demon knocking it into a tree.. he quickly ran to Riley who was closest to him...
Xander: You okay?
Riley nodded.. Xander turned his head and saw the demon began to run along the crypts..
Xander: Take care of Graham I'll be right back...
Xander grabbed the knife out of Riley's ankle sheath and jumped off a gravestone onto a crypt.. he began to run and jump from crypt to crypt at an inhuman pace.. jumping 15 or 20 feet distance between each one... he quickly spotted the demon and jumped off the crypt in a flying tackle hitting it in the back he quickly raised the knife and drove it into the back of the demons neck.. cutting through his spine killing it almost instantly... Xander stood and grabbed his radio..
Xander: How's Graham?
He waited a second..
Riley: Alive.. But unconcience.. We need to get back to base... The HST?
Xander looked at it..
Xander: Dead.. Thought it was best... Call for a pickup for Graham.. I'll finish the patrol of the south end...
Xander began moving..
Riley: Copy...
Xander put the radio on his belt and pulled his tazer into his hand as he walked...
Initiative~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Walsh is debriefing Riley on the nights patrol..
Walsh: Who took out the hostile Agent Finn?
Riley was standing at ease looked at her across a table..
Riley: Agent Harris Ma'am..
Walsh nodded as she frowned..
Walsh: I want you to keep a close eye on Agen Harris... I don't trust him...
Riley looked confused..
Riley: Yes Ma'am.. But I have to say I trust him with my life...
Walsh looks at him..
Walsh: I trust him with life Agent Finn... I just don't trust him with progress..... Dismissed...
Riley nods and walks from the room....
X & B apartment~~~~~~~~~~~~~~``
Xander walked in quietly and moved toward the kitchen... he put a slice of pizza in the microwave... He just started to eat when a very tired Buffy walked in and fell beside him on the couch..
Xander: You know.. We should take tomarrow off... Stay in and do movie Pizza night with Wills... What do you say?
Buffy nodded into his shoulder half conciece..
Xander: Or you and I could stay in and have hot naked sex?
Buffy just nodded into his shoulder then stopped abruptly and looked at him..
Buffy: Your lucky I'm to tired to hurt you...
Xander chuckled and stood up..
Xander: Here I'll help...
Xander picked her up in a cradle and walked toward her bedroom... he laid her on the bed and took off her shoes before tucking her in..
Buffy: Night..
Xander nodded..
Xander: Night...
Xander turned and shut off the light closing the door as he left.. He didn't see Buffy smile into her pillow and mouth his name.. Xander walked into the warehouse the next morning not saying a word just sitting in the chair for his daily (big) dose of the serum.. he had the little dosages at his apartment but he needed to be restrained for the bigger ones.. Adam walked in with the syringe gun in his hand a giant smile on his face..
Xander: I still think this is the best part of your day..
Adam chuckled as he put the binds on his arms and stuck the gun to his neck...
Adam: And I still say I have no clue what you mean..
He pulled the trigger and stepped back as Xander began to convulse.. A worried look on his face until Xander stopped convulsing and began to breath deeply. then he smiled again and undid the straps.. Xander stood up shakily sitting his mouth guard on a table..
Xander: On to class... I think Walsh suspects somthing.. she's always looking at me.. I think she's having Ariel and Forest follow me on campus...
Adam nodded in thought..
Adam: The council has been unable to find information on the "Initiative" as you call it.. So stay on the inside a little longer..
Xander looks at him..
Xander: If this gets me killed i'm kicking your ass...
Adam chuckled..
Adam: Okay..Sure... Go to class...
Xander sighed and got on his bike..
Xander: This is faster than walking..
Adams answer was drowned out by the roar of the engine... Xander let off the clutch and left a black mark as he left the warehouse...
Adam: Bloody showoff...
Xander coasted the bike into a space and shut off the engine.. he stepped off the bike taking off his sunglasses and walked into the main building of UC Sunnydale. Xander walked up bhind Buffy and threw an arm around her..
Xander: Hey. Roomie... Whats new?
Buffy glared at him..
Buffy: You mean since you woke me up at 5 in the morning to go jogging?
Xander chuckled..
Xander: yeah.. Since then?
Buffy looked at him...
Buffy: Not much... I took a shower got ready for school and ate breakfast..
Xander looked at her..
Xander: Could you tell me about the shower part?
Buffy rolled her eyes..
Buffy: Maybe later...
Xander smiled big..
Xander: Well it gives me something to image in class.... Yep got the mental image all i have to do is add movement.. and Yes.. a soapy naked Buffy in my shower...
Buffy hit his arm..
Buffy: Will you ever grow up?
Xander looked in thought..
Xander: I doubt it... Beside you like me for my jokes and love me for my body..
Buffy chuckled...
Buffy: I didn't mean to walk in while you were getting out of the shower Xan..
Xander looked at her with raised eyebrows..
Xander: And thats exactly what I'll tell you tomarrow..
Buffy smiled..
Buffy: It wasn't like I saw anything.. you had a towel on..
Xander smirked evilly..
Xander: Thats why the only thing you could say for five minutes were one sylable words..
Buffy blushed deep red as Willow and Oz walked up.. Both looked at Buffy's expression and raised an eyebrow...
Willow: Whats going on?
Xander just shrugged...
Xander: Nothin.. If you don't mind I have to find Graham and get notes for history..
Xander waved and said bye as he walked into his and Grahams classroom.. He saw Graham with a bandage on his head..
Xander: Hows the head man?
Graham looked at him and sighed..
Graham: How do you think it is? It hurts.. At least you got the HST...
Xander nodded..
Xander: Big bastard wasn't he?
Graham only nodded as he laid his head on his desk to sleep.. mumbling...
Graham: That he was...
Xander looked at him..
Xander: Bet he hit like Muhamed Ali...
Graham nodded his head...
Graham: Felt like I got hit by a bus...
Xander chuckled for a second.. then started to work.. Grahams head never left the top of the desk till the end of the class... Then Xander half carried half led him to his next class...
Xander: You really should have stayed in bed man...
Graham just fell into his seat and Xander sat beside him...
Xander: Hey. Tell Riley I'm taking the night off.. Spend time with my friends..
Graham nodded..
Graham: No problem... Have fun...
Xander chuckled..
Xander: I hope to have more fun than normal nights.. Our normal nights anyway..
Graham chuckled and they sat through another boring class.... Xander walked beside Buffy and Willow.. Oz had his arm around Willow..
Xander: So.. Whats up for tonight?
Buffy looked at him..
Buffy: You and I are taking the night off remember... Movie night..
Xander chuckled and looked at Willow and Oz..
Willow: Oz has a gig...
Xander smiled at them and Willow blushed he leaned down to Buffy's ear and wispered..
Xander: I'm getting suspecious of his so called "gigs" how about you?
Buffy laughed and nodded.. Willow gave them death glares that mixed with her blush.. Oz just looked calm..
Xander: Guess its just me and you blonde... What movie you want?
Buffy shrugged..
Buffy: Its a suprise...
Xander sighed.. and looked at Oz..
Xander & Oz: Chick flick...
Buffy hit Xander's arm and Willow did the same to Oz..
Xander: Okay.. You get the movie's... I'll get the pizza...
Buffy nodded smiling as Xander walked away..
Willow: Whats up with you and Xander?
Buffy looked at her in a panic..
Buffy: i don't know what your talking about Will... I have to get a movie.. bye..
As Buffy walked quickly away Willow turned to Oz..
Oz: Wierd...
Willow nodded with a smile on her face..
Willow: So... Lets go to the dorm....
Oz just shrugged and the two walked away arm and arm.. Xander walked into the warehouse to see Adam practicing a sword kata.. he watched as the immortal finished...
Xander: your pretty good... Anyway here to update you on the initiative... Basicaly same thing.. there not letting me in the labs and if I break in.. well were screwed.. so... I propose we say screw em and go on with our own operation...
Adam nodded..
Adam: No.. Stay in a little longer..
Xander sighed..
Xander: I'm taking the night off..
Adam looked at him..
Adam: You most certainly are not..
Xander looked at him..
Xander: Sorry.. I got a movie with a blond... Your outta luck... Good night..
Adam sighed..
Adam: Why me?!
Xander chuckled as he walked out of the warehouse... Xander walked into his apartment with a Pizza on his arm and a smile on his face... Buffy looked at him..
Buffy: What are you so happy about?
Xander looked at her..
Xander: I'm watching a movie and eating pizza with my best friend.. we haven't done this since... wow.. along time.
Buffy smiled and patted the seat beside her..
Xander: What movie did you get?
Buffy looked at him..
Buffy: Return of the Jedi..
Xander looked at her in shock..
Xander: You hate that movie..
Buffy shrugged..
Buffy: But you love it... and its not that bad.. I think yoda's cool..
Xander laughed..
Xander: Yeah yeah.. I know the truth.. you have a crush on Han don't you? I'm so jealous..
Buffy chuckled..
Buffy: No.. I don't have a crush on Han...
Buffy saw Xander smile evilly..
Xander: Who do you have a crush on? I have seen the way you look at........... Oz..
Buffy held her breath until he said Oz then she slapped the back of his head..
Xander: No.. seriously.. Who do you have a crush on Miss. Summers?
Buffy faked a look of thought..
Buffy: Well.. He's tall... Hansome.. Dark hair.. and Eyes and... He isn't near as stupid as most people think..
Xander looked at her..
Xander: I give up.. Just tell me..
Buffy smiled..
Buffy: Parker..
Xander fell off the couch laughing..
Xander: If your telling the truth I'm going to kill him..
Buffy looked at him still in a smile..
Buffy: Why is that Mr. Harris?
Xander stood up..
Xander: Lets just say he has a thing for every decent looking freshman in school.. and has had a thing with at least half of them..
Buffy still smiled..
Buffy: Okay.. It wasn't Parker... But he has been hitting on me lately.. Riley has finally given up..
Xander laughed..
Xander: He thinks you have a thing for me...
Buffy blushed..
Buffy: What gave him that idea?
Xander shrugged..
Xander: I asked him the same thing... Told him we've been like this since sophmore year.. Uh..
Buffy looked at him in thought..
Buffy: Is there more to us?
Xander looked at her..
Xander: I don't know.. I try not to get my hopes up about that..
Buffy looked at him for a second...
Xander: What do you think?
Buffy looked deep in his eyes.. looking for any sign that might make her answer easier.. then she saw it... she saw his love.. and she knew it was for her..... As an answer she tilted her head and moved toward him... there lips touched lightly as they leaned toward eachother... the kiss gave them both the answers they needed... It gave them love.. After a few minutes they pulled back..
Buffy: Thats what I hope...
Xander smiled and held her close as they drifted to sleep......
Thats all for part 8... How is it? Is it getting better? worse? i need feedback... Cobra_011@hotmail.com...
The Daywalker Part 9/?
Xander walked into the warehouse wistling happily..
Adam: Great if your so happy about the injection I can't enjoy it..
Xander chuckled and sat in the chair taking the serum he stood up a little shaky..
Xander: I'm going on patrol with Buffy tonight.. I think it would be the best time to tell her..
Adam shook his head..
Adam: Got knew orders kid.. Only her watcher must know.. Just so he can keep her off our backs.. You and I will go see him in an hour..
Xander nodded..
Xander: Sure Giles is cool..
Adam looked at him for a second..
Adam: Rupert Giles?
Xander nodded.. Adam looked around in a kind of panic..
Adam: I haven't seen him in.... 35 years.. I still look the same.. Were screwed kid..
Xander chuckled..
Xander: At least i'm not the only one getting interogated...
Xander smiled as he got in the driver side of Adam's jeep..
Adam: What do you think your doing?
Xander smiled as he closed the door and started the car..
Xander: I'd like to get there before the sun sets...
Adam sighed loudly and got in the passenger seat.. Xander put the jeep in gear and floored it... Adam screaming about impending death as they speed down the street.. Xander opened the door of Giles's apartment and walked in.. Methos behind him... Xander smiled at Spike who was chained to a chair..
Xander: Hiya Spikey..
Spike growled then looked behind Xander.. he looked at Xander in a panic..
Spike: Harris.. Untie me ya bloody wanker.. guys gonna kill me..
Xander looked at Methos who looked cold.. empasive..
Xander: And I should care why?
Spike began pulling harder on his chains as Giles walked in..
Giles: Xander.. Adam?
Adam looked from Spike for a second and nodded at Giles..
Adam: Where is he William?
Spike looked up.
Spike: Look Methos.. Angelus is a good guy... What the bloody hell am I doin? The poofster is in L.A.
Adam nodded turning from him and starting to walk out the door..
Xander: You can't kill him Methos...
Adam whirled around and stared at his charge... he looked intemidating..
Adam: Why not?
Xander sighed..
Xander: Death would be the easy way for him...
Adam looked intrigued and nodded for Xander to continue..
Xander: He was cursed with a soul... now he is trying to redeem himself.. he helps people... Don't think I'm taking up for him.. hell I hate the basterd.. he almost killed me a few times..
Adam looked at the young man and nodded.. not convinced but he could tell Xander was telling the truth...
Giles: Excuse me... Methos?
Both Adam and Xander sighed and sat down...
Xander: Boy do we have a story for you G-Man...
Giles wiped his glasses and looked at the two visitors... He was silent for a few minutes after hearing there story..
Giles: Good lord.
Xander chuckles..
Xander: That about covers it..
Giles puts his glasses back on..
Giles: Good lord...
Xander and Adam look at each other..
Adam: I believe we've covered that Rupert..
Giles nods..
Giles: Yes.. Um.. Good lord...
Xander rolled his eyes and Adam sighed.. both falling back on the couch.. Spike is laughing..
Spike: So the little wanker is a vamp...
Xander glared at Spike to shut him up.. it didn't work..
Spike: Maybe he'll have a chance with the slayer now.. after all he's basically dead..
Xander's hand gripped the center table hard.. they heard the crack as the edge broke off in his hand.. Spike stared at him wide eyed and then shut his mouth quickly.. Giles looks at him with shock..
Giles: Who is going to pay for that?!
Xander points a thumb at Adam who already has his wallet in his hand...
Adam: Damn kid.. I feel like a father or something... NO.. more like a parole officer.. yeah thats it...
Xander laughs as Adam hands Giles a few bills... Adam glares at him...
Adam: I'm not made of money you know..
Xander chuckled..
Xander: Yeah but the church is... Lets go..
Adam ran a hand over his face as he stood..
Xander: This is just between us right...
Giles nodded..
Giles: Of course.. However I do believe you should tell Buffy and the others..
Xander nodded then looked at Spike.. Spike noticed he still had the piece of table in his hand so he just nodded quickly.. Xander smiled nodding and walked out the door..
Xander: seya G-Man..
Adam: Goodbye Rupert..
The door closed leaving a speachless watcher and Vampire alone.. As they walked out toward the car...
Xander: How do you know deadboy?
Adam looked at him strangely..
Xander: Angel or Angelus..
Adam had a sad look on his face for a few moments..
Adam: I was in Europe.. It was around extactly one hundred and 2 years ago.. I and my wife Cecilia were walking through a park.. It was dark but I thought I could protect her... And she trusted my judgement... Then they came out of the shadows.. Angelus, Darla, Drusilla, and William.. I didn't find out there names till a few weeks later from a local snitch... I fought them.. even had Angelus and Spike beat.. But Darla and Drusilla had gotten by me.. They took Cecilia... I found her at my doorstep the next morning..
Adam looks down at the ground.. Xander bows his head before speaking..
Xander: You and Giles have a lot in common..
Adam looks at him curiously..
Xander: Not my story to tell man... Trust me.. Giles knows how you feel..
Adam only nods as he gets in the jeep.. this time in the drivers side. Xander notices and shakes his head..
Xander: I'll walk.. Its faster..
Adam chuckled as he pulled away from the complex.. Xander laughed and walked toward his house.. As Xander walked in he saw Buffy at the doorway.. her hands on her hips and a scowl on her face.. Xander gulped..
Buffy: Where have you been all day?
Xander looked at her..
Xander: Giles's.. Wanted to talk to him about the initiative...
Buffy softened her glare a little.. but only a little
Buffy: Everyone was worried about you... I thought you were in trouble.. Couldn't concentrate on my work..
Xander smiled slightly and Buffy smiled back..
Xander: Its nice to know you care.. Really it is.. But i'm not helpless... And I'm not going anywhere...
Buffy looked straight in his eyes.. and saw the real Xander.. Not the joking boy in highschool.. Not even the serious young adult she had been seeing the last few months... She saw XANDER.. She saw what he hid from everyone.. she saw the brave selfless hero that he's always been in a pinch.. And she couldn't help but move closer and look deeper.. seeing pain and finally seeing happiness.. behind the cloud of anguish he was still a child.. he was still filled with love of both life and matters of the heart.. and as she looked deeper she saw that it was for her... That was the last thought that entered her mind as there lips met.........
Thats it for part.... 9.. might take a while to get part 10 up.. but I'll try to make it a good one... Thanks for reviewing everyone and keep it up..
Xander, Riley and Graham walked into the class.. all looked extremely tired.. Xander's hair was straight up and he had morning stuble... He sat beside Buffy and Graham sat beside him.. Riley sat at his desk..
Buffy: You look tired..
Xander looked at her..
Xander: Damn Triplets...
Graham just put his head on his desk and chuckled.. Riley felt a smile cross his face... Buffy for a moment glared at him.. everyone but Xander caught the angry look.. Xander's head was on his desk as was Grahams and Rileys on theres through the whole class... As the professor dismissed the class Buffy grabed Xander and pulled him out of the class..
Buffy: Come on.. Were going to Giles's..
Xander nodded and followed Buffy out the door.. waving to the others.... They talks as they walk down the sidewalk..
Xander: So whats up Buffs?
Buffy looked at him finally noticing she was still holding his hand... but she didn't let go....
Buffy: A certain blond vampire came to Giles's last night..
Buffy looked at Xander.. He looked curious...
Xander: When did Spike get back to town?
Buffy shrugs..
Buffy: You tell me...
Xander raises his eyebrows..
Xander: Whats that supposed to mean..
They walk into Giles's he drops the act..
Xander: I didn't know he was back till yesterday Buffs...
Buffy looked at him..
Buffy: So its true? Your a soldier boy...
Xander looked hurt..
Xander: I prefer soldier MAN.... And beside I'm a civie I just uh.. Help out...
Xander turned to a chained up Spike..
Xander: Can I borrow Mr. Pointy?
He smiles really big at Buffy..
Spike: Is this about what I called the slayer? I would say i'm sorry but I'm not.. Beside she won't let you dust me... I'm helpless....
Xander smirks at him..
Xander: I have a better idea anyway.. You work for us now... We get you blood.. you help keep the demon population to a minimum.. otherwise.. I'll dust you...
Spike seemed in thought..
Spike: Only if the slayer gives the occasional shag..
Buffy pulled out Mr. Pointy...
Spike: Only kidding... Jeez.. No bloody sense of humor... deal...
Xander smirked..
Xander: Gotta go Buff... And if he says one more thing about you tell me.. I'll be happy to break his neck a few times...
Spike snorted..
Spike: Like you could..
Xander looked at him and raised his eyebrows..
Xander: How would you like a chip that hurts evertime you look at a woman?
Spike closes his eyes and sighs..
Spike: You win...
Xander looked around the room...
Xander: Where's Giles?
Buffy kinda looks around the room..
Xander: Afraid he'd get blood on him?
Buffy looks at the floor.. Xander chuckles..
Xander: Look I have to go.. Got a date with the triplets tonight..
Buffy glares at him and he smiles..
Xander: What.. A guy can dream can't he? Actually if I could dream it would only be of Buffy in the Buff...
Xander closes his eyes and smiles.. Buffy hits him playfully on the arm...
Buffy: Your lucky I'll let you get away with that..
Xander chuckled..
Spike: Oh.. The soden poofs are in love...
Xander and Buffy glared at him...Spike smiled....
Xander: I haven't completely talked myself out of dusting you... I gotta go.. Seeya Buff...
Xander looked at her from head to toe and looked at her face.. raising his eyebrows as she pushed him out the door... She followed closing it behind her..
Buffy: You get dumber and dumber..
Xander looks at her in mock shock..
Xander: I do not.. I'm deep I tell ya.. Deep... I'm as Deep as the ocean..
Buffy raises her eyebrows looking at him..
Xander: An olympic size swimming pool?
Buffy frowns...
Xander: A kiddie pool from the mall?
Buffy smiles..
Buffy: Maybe a little deeper than that...
Xander sighs..
Xander: Nice to know what you think of me Buff.... For a split second I thought you liked me..
Buffy smiles and blushes taking Xander by suprise..
Buffy: You know if you ever get self confidence you could have anywoman you want..
Xander looks at her..
Xander: The one I want is out of my league...
Xander smiles at her as he turns to leave...
Buffy: No one is out of your league Xand.....
Xander smiles at her once more as he walks toward his house... Xander walks into the warehouse.. he looks at his bike and moves to the weapons locker.. He walks out in full hunting gear...
Adam: So?
Xander looks at him..
Adam: Did you infiltrate the compound?
Xander nods..
Xander: They don't kill demons.. they capture them for study.. I don't trust them... And I think the leader.. Maggie Walsh.. May know something about me.. they had vampire detectors.. I don't know if I sat any off but....
Adam nods his head..
Adam: Just be carefull... I have orders from the council to tell the slayer of our operation... I thought I'd tell you ahead of time..
Xander sighs and nods..
Xander: Thanks.. I guess I'll head out... Maybe if I kill something I'll feel better..
Xander walked into his apartment building.. as he looked up from the floor he saw the woman of his dreams...
Buffy: She ruined my leather pants........
Xander nodded and opened his door...
Xander: Welcome to OUR humble abode..... Take a look around.. those two rooms are free...
Xander walked into the bathroom and opened the medicine cabinet... He pulled out a syringe gun and a mouth guard... he sat on the sink and put the guard in his mouth biting down.. he quickly injected the serum into his vien... he began convulseing as he fell from the sink with a dull thump.. he stood up shakily and replaced the mouth gaurd and gun... and hobbled out of the bathroom to his bed....
Buffy: Are you okay? Did you fall?
Xander chuckled..
Xander: Slipped... I'm okay... Hows the room?
Buffy noticed how his breathing was uneven and even forced.. she walked over to the bed and felt his pulse...
Buffy: Damn Xan.. Did you run a marathon?
Xander chuckled..
Xander: Nah.. Don't think I'd make it right now... So is your roomate a demon?
Buffy frowns..
Buffy: No.. Just very annoying...
Xander chuckles..
Xander: Well.. You can stay here as long as you want... My shaver is off limits..
Buffy giggled..
Buffy: I think I have my own Xand....
Buffy laid down beside him.. Xander eyes are closed and his breathing has just slowed down...
Xander: Your lucky I have will power... Most men with a beutiful woman in there bed would jump them...
Buffy looked at him with raised eyebrows..
Buffy: You don't have the guts...
Xander raised his head to look at her..
Xander: You insult my manlyness... this means war...
Xander quickly reached over and began tickling her...
Buffy: St...Stop.. Okay.. I give.. I give..
Both are laughing as they lay on the bed...
Buffy: Do you ever miss highschool?
Xander looked in thought..
Xander: No.. I miss us in highschool.. inseperable..well almost..
Buffy looked at him..
Buffy: Whats that supposed to mean?
Xander looked at her and frowned..
Xander: Look Buff.. I don't want to fight with you..
Buffy didn't stop glaring..
Xander: fine... You all tried to get rid of me a couple of times...
Buffy looked down..
Buffy: I.. We.. Just didn't want you to get hurt.. I don't think I could live with myself if you got hurt..
Xander wrapped his arm around her shoulders..
Xander: I feel the same way about you Buff...
With this the duo fell into a comfortable silence and let sleep overtake them.....
Thats part 7.. so how is it.. I know I'm centering on certain characters right now but I'll bring the rest of the group in soon... Also... the chase for an HST could reveal Xander's secret.. on the next Thrilling (Yawn) part of The Daywalker.....
Part 8/?
Riley and Graham walked through the graveyard..
Graham: Where's Xander?
Riley looked around..
Riley: He took the other side... Man its a quiet night...
Before Graham could answer he went flying.. Riley turned quickly but not quick enough as he to was hit and knocked into the side of a crypt.. Xander ran from the side and jump kicked the demon knocking it into a tree.. he quickly ran to Riley who was closest to him...
Xander: You okay?
Riley nodded.. Xander turned his head and saw the demon began to run along the crypts..
Xander: Take care of Graham I'll be right back...
Xander grabbed the knife out of Riley's ankle sheath and jumped off a gravestone onto a crypt.. he began to run and jump from crypt to crypt at an inhuman pace.. jumping 15 or 20 feet distance between each one... he quickly spotted the demon and jumped off the crypt in a flying tackle hitting it in the back he quickly raised the knife and drove it into the back of the demons neck.. cutting through his spine killing it almost instantly... Xander stood and grabbed his radio..
Xander: How's Graham?
He waited a second..
Riley: Alive.. But unconcience.. We need to get back to base... The HST?
Xander looked at it..
Xander: Dead.. Thought it was best... Call for a pickup for Graham.. I'll finish the patrol of the south end...
Xander began moving..
Riley: Copy...
Xander put the radio on his belt and pulled his tazer into his hand as he walked...
Initiative~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Walsh is debriefing Riley on the nights patrol..
Walsh: Who took out the hostile Agent Finn?
Riley was standing at ease looked at her across a table..
Riley: Agent Harris Ma'am..
Walsh nodded as she frowned..
Walsh: I want you to keep a close eye on Agen Harris... I don't trust him...
Riley looked confused..
Riley: Yes Ma'am.. But I have to say I trust him with my life...
Walsh looks at him..
Walsh: I trust him with life Agent Finn... I just don't trust him with progress..... Dismissed...
Riley nods and walks from the room....
X & B apartment~~~~~~~~~~~~~~``
Xander walked in quietly and moved toward the kitchen... he put a slice of pizza in the microwave... He just started to eat when a very tired Buffy walked in and fell beside him on the couch..
Xander: You know.. We should take tomarrow off... Stay in and do movie Pizza night with Wills... What do you say?
Buffy nodded into his shoulder half conciece..
Xander: Or you and I could stay in and have hot naked sex?
Buffy just nodded into his shoulder then stopped abruptly and looked at him..
Buffy: Your lucky I'm to tired to hurt you...
Xander chuckled and stood up..
Xander: Here I'll help...
Xander picked her up in a cradle and walked toward her bedroom... he laid her on the bed and took off her shoes before tucking her in..
Buffy: Night..
Xander nodded..
Xander: Night...
Xander turned and shut off the light closing the door as he left.. He didn't see Buffy smile into her pillow and mouth his name.. Xander walked into the warehouse the next morning not saying a word just sitting in the chair for his daily (big) dose of the serum.. he had the little dosages at his apartment but he needed to be restrained for the bigger ones.. Adam walked in with the syringe gun in his hand a giant smile on his face..
Xander: I still think this is the best part of your day..
Adam chuckled as he put the binds on his arms and stuck the gun to his neck...
Adam: And I still say I have no clue what you mean..
He pulled the trigger and stepped back as Xander began to convulse.. A worried look on his face until Xander stopped convulsing and began to breath deeply. then he smiled again and undid the straps.. Xander stood up shakily sitting his mouth guard on a table..
Xander: On to class... I think Walsh suspects somthing.. she's always looking at me.. I think she's having Ariel and Forest follow me on campus...
Adam nodded in thought..
Adam: The council has been unable to find information on the "Initiative" as you call it.. So stay on the inside a little longer..
Xander looks at him..
Xander: If this gets me killed i'm kicking your ass...
Adam chuckled..
Adam: Okay..Sure... Go to class...
Xander sighed and got on his bike..
Xander: This is faster than walking..
Adams answer was drowned out by the roar of the engine... Xander let off the clutch and left a black mark as he left the warehouse...
Adam: Bloody showoff...
Xander coasted the bike into a space and shut off the engine.. he stepped off the bike taking off his sunglasses and walked into the main building of UC Sunnydale. Xander walked up bhind Buffy and threw an arm around her..
Xander: Hey. Roomie... Whats new?
Buffy glared at him..
Buffy: You mean since you woke me up at 5 in the morning to go jogging?
Xander chuckled..
Xander: yeah.. Since then?
Buffy looked at him...
Buffy: Not much... I took a shower got ready for school and ate breakfast..
Xander looked at her..
Xander: Could you tell me about the shower part?
Buffy rolled her eyes..
Buffy: Maybe later...
Xander smiled big..
Xander: Well it gives me something to image in class.... Yep got the mental image all i have to do is add movement.. and Yes.. a soapy naked Buffy in my shower...
Buffy hit his arm..
Buffy: Will you ever grow up?
Xander looked in thought..
Xander: I doubt it... Beside you like me for my jokes and love me for my body..
Buffy chuckled...
Buffy: I didn't mean to walk in while you were getting out of the shower Xan..
Xander looked at her with raised eyebrows..
Xander: And thats exactly what I'll tell you tomarrow..
Buffy smiled..
Buffy: It wasn't like I saw anything.. you had a towel on..
Xander smirked evilly..
Xander: Thats why the only thing you could say for five minutes were one sylable words..
Buffy blushed deep red as Willow and Oz walked up.. Both looked at Buffy's expression and raised an eyebrow...
Willow: Whats going on?
Xander just shrugged...
Xander: Nothin.. If you don't mind I have to find Graham and get notes for history..
Xander waved and said bye as he walked into his and Grahams classroom.. He saw Graham with a bandage on his head..
Xander: Hows the head man?
Graham looked at him and sighed..
Graham: How do you think it is? It hurts.. At least you got the HST...
Xander nodded..
Xander: Big bastard wasn't he?
Graham only nodded as he laid his head on his desk to sleep.. mumbling...
Graham: That he was...
Xander looked at him..
Xander: Bet he hit like Muhamed Ali...
Graham nodded his head...
Graham: Felt like I got hit by a bus...
Xander chuckled for a second.. then started to work.. Grahams head never left the top of the desk till the end of the class... Then Xander half carried half led him to his next class...
Xander: You really should have stayed in bed man...
Graham just fell into his seat and Xander sat beside him...
Xander: Hey. Tell Riley I'm taking the night off.. Spend time with my friends..
Graham nodded..
Graham: No problem... Have fun...
Xander chuckled..
Xander: I hope to have more fun than normal nights.. Our normal nights anyway..
Graham chuckled and they sat through another boring class.... Xander walked beside Buffy and Willow.. Oz had his arm around Willow..
Xander: So.. Whats up for tonight?
Buffy looked at him..
Buffy: You and I are taking the night off remember... Movie night..
Xander chuckled and looked at Willow and Oz..
Willow: Oz has a gig...
Xander smiled at them and Willow blushed he leaned down to Buffy's ear and wispered..
Xander: I'm getting suspecious of his so called "gigs" how about you?
Buffy laughed and nodded.. Willow gave them death glares that mixed with her blush.. Oz just looked calm..
Xander: Guess its just me and you blonde... What movie you want?
Buffy shrugged..
Buffy: Its a suprise...
Xander sighed.. and looked at Oz..
Xander & Oz: Chick flick...
Buffy hit Xander's arm and Willow did the same to Oz..
Xander: Okay.. You get the movie's... I'll get the pizza...
Buffy nodded smiling as Xander walked away..
Willow: Whats up with you and Xander?
Buffy looked at her in a panic..
Buffy: i don't know what your talking about Will... I have to get a movie.. bye..
As Buffy walked quickly away Willow turned to Oz..
Oz: Wierd...
Willow nodded with a smile on her face..
Willow: So... Lets go to the dorm....
Oz just shrugged and the two walked away arm and arm.. Xander walked into the warehouse to see Adam practicing a sword kata.. he watched as the immortal finished...
Xander: your pretty good... Anyway here to update you on the initiative... Basicaly same thing.. there not letting me in the labs and if I break in.. well were screwed.. so... I propose we say screw em and go on with our own operation...
Adam nodded..
Adam: No.. Stay in a little longer..
Xander sighed..
Xander: I'm taking the night off..
Adam looked at him..
Adam: You most certainly are not..
Xander looked at him..
Xander: Sorry.. I got a movie with a blond... Your outta luck... Good night..
Adam sighed..
Adam: Why me?!
Xander chuckled as he walked out of the warehouse... Xander walked into his apartment with a Pizza on his arm and a smile on his face... Buffy looked at him..
Buffy: What are you so happy about?
Xander looked at her..
Xander: I'm watching a movie and eating pizza with my best friend.. we haven't done this since... wow.. along time.
Buffy smiled and patted the seat beside her..
Xander: What movie did you get?
Buffy looked at him..
Buffy: Return of the Jedi..
Xander looked at her in shock..
Xander: You hate that movie..
Buffy shrugged..
Buffy: But you love it... and its not that bad.. I think yoda's cool..
Xander laughed..
Xander: Yeah yeah.. I know the truth.. you have a crush on Han don't you? I'm so jealous..
Buffy chuckled..
Buffy: No.. I don't have a crush on Han...
Buffy saw Xander smile evilly..
Xander: Who do you have a crush on? I have seen the way you look at........... Oz..
Buffy held her breath until he said Oz then she slapped the back of his head..
Xander: No.. seriously.. Who do you have a crush on Miss. Summers?
Buffy faked a look of thought..
Buffy: Well.. He's tall... Hansome.. Dark hair.. and Eyes and... He isn't near as stupid as most people think..
Xander looked at her..
Xander: I give up.. Just tell me..
Buffy smiled..
Buffy: Parker..
Xander fell off the couch laughing..
Xander: If your telling the truth I'm going to kill him..
Buffy looked at him still in a smile..
Buffy: Why is that Mr. Harris?
Xander stood up..
Xander: Lets just say he has a thing for every decent looking freshman in school.. and has had a thing with at least half of them..
Buffy still smiled..
Buffy: Okay.. It wasn't Parker... But he has been hitting on me lately.. Riley has finally given up..
Xander laughed..
Xander: He thinks you have a thing for me...
Buffy blushed..
Buffy: What gave him that idea?
Xander shrugged..
Xander: I asked him the same thing... Told him we've been like this since sophmore year.. Uh..
Buffy looked at him in thought..
Buffy: Is there more to us?
Xander looked at her..
Xander: I don't know.. I try not to get my hopes up about that..
Buffy looked at him for a second...
Xander: What do you think?
Buffy looked deep in his eyes.. looking for any sign that might make her answer easier.. then she saw it... she saw his love.. and she knew it was for her..... As an answer she tilted her head and moved toward him... there lips touched lightly as they leaned toward eachother... the kiss gave them both the answers they needed... It gave them love.. After a few minutes they pulled back..
Buffy: Thats what I hope...
Xander smiled and held her close as they drifted to sleep......
Thats all for part 8... How is it? Is it getting better? worse? i need feedback... Cobra_011@hotmail.com...
The Daywalker Part 9/?
Xander walked into the warehouse wistling happily..
Adam: Great if your so happy about the injection I can't enjoy it..
Xander chuckled and sat in the chair taking the serum he stood up a little shaky..
Xander: I'm going on patrol with Buffy tonight.. I think it would be the best time to tell her..
Adam shook his head..
Adam: Got knew orders kid.. Only her watcher must know.. Just so he can keep her off our backs.. You and I will go see him in an hour..
Xander nodded..
Xander: Sure Giles is cool..
Adam looked at him for a second..
Adam: Rupert Giles?
Xander nodded.. Adam looked around in a kind of panic..
Adam: I haven't seen him in.... 35 years.. I still look the same.. Were screwed kid..
Xander chuckled..
Xander: At least i'm not the only one getting interogated...
Xander smiled as he got in the driver side of Adam's jeep..
Adam: What do you think your doing?
Xander smiled as he closed the door and started the car..
Xander: I'd like to get there before the sun sets...
Adam sighed loudly and got in the passenger seat.. Xander put the jeep in gear and floored it... Adam screaming about impending death as they speed down the street.. Xander opened the door of Giles's apartment and walked in.. Methos behind him... Xander smiled at Spike who was chained to a chair..
Xander: Hiya Spikey..
Spike growled then looked behind Xander.. he looked at Xander in a panic..
Spike: Harris.. Untie me ya bloody wanker.. guys gonna kill me..
Xander looked at Methos who looked cold.. empasive..
Xander: And I should care why?
Spike began pulling harder on his chains as Giles walked in..
Giles: Xander.. Adam?
Adam looked from Spike for a second and nodded at Giles..
Adam: Where is he William?
Spike looked up.
Spike: Look Methos.. Angelus is a good guy... What the bloody hell am I doin? The poofster is in L.A.
Adam nodded turning from him and starting to walk out the door..
Xander: You can't kill him Methos...
Adam whirled around and stared at his charge... he looked intemidating..
Adam: Why not?
Xander sighed..
Xander: Death would be the easy way for him...
Adam looked intrigued and nodded for Xander to continue..
Xander: He was cursed with a soul... now he is trying to redeem himself.. he helps people... Don't think I'm taking up for him.. hell I hate the basterd.. he almost killed me a few times..
Adam looked at the young man and nodded.. not convinced but he could tell Xander was telling the truth...
Giles: Excuse me... Methos?
Both Adam and Xander sighed and sat down...
Xander: Boy do we have a story for you G-Man...
Giles wiped his glasses and looked at the two visitors... He was silent for a few minutes after hearing there story..
Giles: Good lord.
Xander chuckles..
Xander: That about covers it..
Giles puts his glasses back on..
Giles: Good lord...
Xander and Adam look at each other..
Adam: I believe we've covered that Rupert..
Giles nods..
Giles: Yes.. Um.. Good lord...
Xander rolled his eyes and Adam sighed.. both falling back on the couch.. Spike is laughing..
Spike: So the little wanker is a vamp...
Xander glared at Spike to shut him up.. it didn't work..
Spike: Maybe he'll have a chance with the slayer now.. after all he's basically dead..
Xander's hand gripped the center table hard.. they heard the crack as the edge broke off in his hand.. Spike stared at him wide eyed and then shut his mouth quickly.. Giles looks at him with shock..
Giles: Who is going to pay for that?!
Xander points a thumb at Adam who already has his wallet in his hand...
Adam: Damn kid.. I feel like a father or something... NO.. more like a parole officer.. yeah thats it...
Xander laughs as Adam hands Giles a few bills... Adam glares at him...
Adam: I'm not made of money you know..
Xander chuckled..
Xander: Yeah but the church is... Lets go..
Adam ran a hand over his face as he stood..
Xander: This is just between us right...
Giles nodded..
Giles: Of course.. However I do believe you should tell Buffy and the others..
Xander nodded then looked at Spike.. Spike noticed he still had the piece of table in his hand so he just nodded quickly.. Xander smiled nodding and walked out the door..
Xander: seya G-Man..
Adam: Goodbye Rupert..
The door closed leaving a speachless watcher and Vampire alone.. As they walked out toward the car...
Xander: How do you know deadboy?
Adam looked at him strangely..
Xander: Angel or Angelus..
Adam had a sad look on his face for a few moments..
Adam: I was in Europe.. It was around extactly one hundred and 2 years ago.. I and my wife Cecilia were walking through a park.. It was dark but I thought I could protect her... And she trusted my judgement... Then they came out of the shadows.. Angelus, Darla, Drusilla, and William.. I didn't find out there names till a few weeks later from a local snitch... I fought them.. even had Angelus and Spike beat.. But Darla and Drusilla had gotten by me.. They took Cecilia... I found her at my doorstep the next morning..
Adam looks down at the ground.. Xander bows his head before speaking..
Xander: You and Giles have a lot in common..
Adam looks at him curiously..
Xander: Not my story to tell man... Trust me.. Giles knows how you feel..
Adam only nods as he gets in the jeep.. this time in the drivers side. Xander notices and shakes his head..
Xander: I'll walk.. Its faster..
Adam chuckled as he pulled away from the complex.. Xander laughed and walked toward his house.. As Xander walked in he saw Buffy at the doorway.. her hands on her hips and a scowl on her face.. Xander gulped..
Buffy: Where have you been all day?
Xander looked at her..
Xander: Giles's.. Wanted to talk to him about the initiative...
Buffy softened her glare a little.. but only a little
Buffy: Everyone was worried about you... I thought you were in trouble.. Couldn't concentrate on my work..
Xander smiled slightly and Buffy smiled back..
Xander: Its nice to know you care.. Really it is.. But i'm not helpless... And I'm not going anywhere...
Buffy looked straight in his eyes.. and saw the real Xander.. Not the joking boy in highschool.. Not even the serious young adult she had been seeing the last few months... She saw XANDER.. She saw what he hid from everyone.. she saw the brave selfless hero that he's always been in a pinch.. And she couldn't help but move closer and look deeper.. seeing pain and finally seeing happiness.. behind the cloud of anguish he was still a child.. he was still filled with love of both life and matters of the heart.. and as she looked deeper she saw that it was for her... That was the last thought that entered her mind as there lips met.........
Thats it for part.... 9.. might take a while to get part 10 up.. but I'll try to make it a good one... Thanks for reviewing everyone and keep it up..
