Dark Angel Storyline:

Mid Second-season, somewhere around "Love in Vein" - Max burnt down Manticore and freed all the transgenics, including the extremely-hot-yet- playfully-annoying Alec (*sigh*). The virus is in effect, but it's not really relevant to this storyline.

Buffy Storyline: Around mid sixth season. I am kind of new to the buffy scene (Thank you reruns on FX!) so I am not sure I have all my stuff right! ( I love the show though!!!! Anyway, Buffys mom is dead, and Dawn is around..Spike is on Buffys side, Giles is still here, and he and Anya do the magic shop thing. Willow is still just quitting her Wicca obsession.

Also, a lot of people have asked me what the 'pairings' are for this fanfic. Right now it's not really anything, maybe later though :-) I doubt there will be any max/alec, just because I think they make better friends than anything else.

Please read and review! If you wanna contact me, my e-mail is alias_angel_girl@yahoo.com

Next Chapter.will be up sometime during this week. No more school for me! So I have plenty of time to write. *big smile*

Also, several people have asked me about this-If you want me to e-mail you as soon as I post a new chapter, then either put your e-mail address in the Reviews, or e-mail it to me. I will send out an e-mail to everyone right after I put up a new chapter.

Buffy led the way through the graveyard, with Spike following closely behind, and Willow and Xander bringing up the end. Despite the few times Buffy turned around to tell Xander to shut up, they were relatively quiet.

Soon the group reached a small clearing in the middle of the cemetery. Buffy came to a stop and turned around to face the rest of them.

"Why don't we hide here, and wait for THEM to come to US. At the rate we're going it will take all night to find them," she suggested.

"And when they get here, we can surround them," Spike said, catching on.

"Good plan!" Xander exclaimed, caught up in the moment, "Let's all hide!!!"

Willow rolled her eyes. "You shouldn't have let him come.." She muttered as they all crouched behind bushes or tombstones.

"What happens if one of these demons try to kill me?" Xander asked, a bit panicked, from his position behind an old, gray tombstone.

"You don't let them kill you, and kill them instead," Spike explained as though he were talking to a four-year-old. "These guys better come soon because I am not going to spend all night hiding in a bush."

"Shh!" Buffy quieted them all. "Here, Xander; take this," she said as she tossed him another crossbow from the tombstone she was concealed behind.

Xander caught the crossbow and held it tightly. "Tell me when they get here."

"Max, is it just me or are we going in circles?" Alec complained for the hundredth time that night.

Max ignored the comment and instead continued on in the direction they were going. A few minutes later, the pair came to a small clearing.

"You would think after all those years of training, we would be able to find out way out of a freakin cemetery," Max said as she stopped walking and stood with her hands on her hips.

"Yeah, well, that's what you get for not sticking around those extra ten years," Alec replied playfully as he sat down on a tombstone.

"I don't see YOU getting us out of here," Max shot back. "In fact, it was you who-" Max started, but cut herself off. "Did you hear that?"

"Hear what?" Alec asked in a puzzled tone as he stood up.

"Shh..it was coming from over there" Max motioned toward a tombstone. "It sounded like people talking.

"That's it," Alec said as he too heard the group talking. "Whoever's there, we hear you," he called out, "Let's just make things easier on us all, and you guys show yourselves right now."

Max looked over at Alec uncertainly. "Are you sure that was a good idea?" she questioned. "It could be more of those 'vampire' guys."

Alec smiled. "Then get ready for another round of ass-kicking."



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Buffy tensed up as she saw the two walked into the clearing. "Is that them?" she whispered over to Spike.

Spike replied with a nod. "Yeah, would recognize them anywhere." he said as he saw Max.

"Snap out of it," Buffy hissed. "She could be dangerous."

Buffy tried to listen to their conversation, but they were too far away. 'Well at least that means they can't hear us' Buffy thought.

"Buffy what do we do now?" Xander whispered over.

"We wait for them-" Buffy was cut off as she heard a male voice calling out to them.

"Whoever's there, we hear you," the voice called out, "Let's just make things easier on us all, and you guys show yourselves right now."

Spike sent Buffy a look that said 'what do we do' and Buffy leaned against the tombstone.

"We know you're there," the voice called out again.

"I guess it's showtime," Buffy said to the others as she stood up, giving away their hiding spots.

The three others followed suit as Buffy stood up and walked until she was about twenty feet from the two. Xander to her left, and she nudged him to put up his crossbow. Spike walked to the other side of Buffy, with a careless look on his face, and Willow half-hid-behind, half-stood-next to Xander.

Max and Alec instinctively took fighting stances as soon as they saw the group and the weaponry.

"Figured we would be seeing you again," Max said with a glare at Spike.

"Who are you people?" Buffy demanded as she raised her crossbow, pointing it at the two of them.

Alec let out a loud laugh. "What are you going to do with that?" he scoffed with a sarcastic grin.

"Who are you?" she demanded again, the anger in her voice rising.

Max eased up on her fighting stance a bit, not feeling these four were much of a threat. "Actually, I believe the question here is why are you guys are attempting to spy on us?"

"I'm going to ask you one more time," Buffy threatened, "And then- "

"And then what?" Max interrupted. "You'll have your little boy here try to beat us up again?" Max mocked, motioning toward Spike. "Cuz I'd be happy to take him down..AGAIN. And you too, girlie."

Buffy glared at the girl standing in front of her. She didn't like being called 'girlie.' "And then," she continued her sentence, "And then you're going to have one mad Slayer on your hands. Which will be trouble for everyone."

Max and Alec simultaneously rolled their eyes, dismissing the 'slayer' talk, because they had no idea what she was talking about. "Right," Alec said in an unbelieving tone. "But if you really want something to address us by, you can call me x-5/494, and this here is x-5/452."

Xander shot them all a puzzled look. "X-what-five-what-WHAT?" he exclaimed, forgetting the situation and the danger he was in.

Max smacked Alec on the arm, ignoring Xanders' outburst. "Look, I don't care if we ARE in some other year or whatever, I still don't want to deal with exposure," she whispered. "For all we know, these guys could be working for White and his possee."

Thanks to her slayer-induced abilities, Buffy could hear Max whispering to Alec. "Exposure? Who's White? What are you talking-"

"Call me Max," the dark-haired girl interrupted. "And this would be Alec."

"As in 'Smart-aleck'," Alec explained with a sarcastic smile.

"Clever," Spike muttered as he crossed his arms across his chest. He had an extremely bored look on his face, and it was obvious that he was waiting for some action.

"I'm Buffy," the blonde introduced herself. "You know Spike, and this is Xander and Willow."

Alec let out a snicker at Buffy's name. "Well now that we all are good buddies, let's head back to my place for a thrilling game of Monopoly!" he exclaimed sarcastically.

"I'm here to find out just what the hell you two are," Buffy said, raising her crossbow again. "Board games can wait."

Max turned to Alec, "I guess that means she doesn't want to come over and play," she said, pretending to pout.

Buffy dismissed Max and Alec's comments with a toss of her hair. "Right now I have every reason to believe you two are some kinda demon or vamp. I'm the Slayer. The Slayer kills demons. Now, I'm sure you guys can do the math, and realize that I have no choice but to kill you," she said, aiming the crossbow at Max.

Before Buffy could shoot the crossbow at her, Max used her enhanced abilities to run over to Buffy and grab the weapon out of her hand.

Buffy stood there stunned as the girl grabbed the crossbow from her hands. One second she was aiming it at Max, and the next second it was being ripped from her hands.

Max smiled at the astonished look on Buffy's face as she snapped the crossbow in half. "I don't like weapons," she stated simply.
