Present time

(Three months after Xander left, which means same as last scene)

He had been training with Tsunami for the past few months working on his sword skills. After the cemetery incident, he took his training more seriously and meditated more so he could better control his power and his weapon. He wasn't shocked that it didn't come so easy to him, even after the memory transfer. The day she released the mental guards that kept him normal throughout the years was interesting and even still today he could recall the moment easily.

When Tsunami had approached him after he had begun his training, she had told him, "One more thing, Alexander."

"Xander," he had corrected hoping that he might be able to make things a little less formal all the time.

"Very well," she then moved closer to him though he could not tell if she was walking or floating. "In your past I've had to block your memories of me and your powers for your own safe keeping. Now that you have decided to begin your training it is time to remove those."

She had placed her hand on his head and he thought he should've felt pain, or a rush or something, but instead it was just the refreshing of his memories being brought back to the surface. "Three times have your mental blocks been knocked down. I am sorry for placing them but, without training, you could be a danger to your friends because of the demons it would attract. First was when you first revived Buffy, you did not know then, that something was wrong, so I just reinstated your blocks and you noticed nothing. Second was the Night you were almost turned and the third was just recently when Buffy had died."

After she had returned his memories he had sat down and actually let them wash over him, though these were not the best memories he had, they were still important. Xander could recall the Night that she was talking about in particular now. It had been back when Angelus was still around.

*****Begin Flashback*****

He couldn't believe it. He had had another fight with Buffy about dusting Angelus. He kept telling her that Angel was gone and killing Angelus would save lives. But she wouldn't hear of either that, or the fact that Angel couldn't be saved. Finally, when he mentioned Miss Calendar's death, Buffy had kicked him out of her house.

He slowly walked home with his head bent low and a single tear leaving his eye. 'I love her so much… Why does she do this? Doesn't she know what could happen? I don't want to lose any more friends!' He didn't notice the shadow that was following or the small giggle that the shadow gave off.

He was two blocks from his house when he finally noticed the shadow moving parallel to him and he started running toward his home. Then the shadow caught up with him and knocked him down. What he felt couldn't even be described as the figure smiled down at him.

"Oh my little kitten wants to play with me, Miss Edith will be so happy. You're one special kitten. Daddy doesn't like my kitten very much, but I'll change that." She slowly walked to where he was lying on the ground.

Seeing Drusilla was not something that he wanted to have happen to him. He slowly slipped out the stake that was in his pocket and was about to jump at her when she slapped him and kicked the stake away.

"Now, kitten! Play nice or mommy will have to be rough with you. But you'll like that, so please be naughty. I like being rough. So much power, so much grief," she purred as she caressed his face.

Xander knew only one thing was crucial: survival. He also knew that Drusilla apparently liked him. So Xander did the only thing he thought he could do to get away with his life: he jumped up and kissed her. Her response was exactly what he wanted.

"Ohhh, kitten wants to play with mommy," she purred.

He started to kiss slowly down her neck and slowly started pushing her toward the tree with a branch that he could easily push her into. As he made his way toward the tree, Drusilla started to get restless and started to claw at his clothes. He quickly reacted and started to massage her right breast, making her gasp. Just before he made it to the tree she grabbed him, and pivoted around, impaling him onto the branch.

"Did you think that you can play naughty without me knowing it kitten? Miss Edith says I should punish you," she giggled as she licked the wound on his right shoulder.

"Mmmmmmmm, you taste wonderful." She started to prod the wound and giggled as he screamed and moaned as he started to lose consciousness.

He barely remembered her tearing him from the branch and laying him on the ground. "Now you will become one of us, then you can play with Miss Edith." Her face morphed into the vampire demon and she started to drink. "So powerful, so yummy," she slit her wrist and had him drink until he stopped breathing.

He woke to find himself in a big wonderful room, with a beautiful woman in front of him. "What happened to me?" he asked her.

"You're all right," she softly whispered.

The rest of room was made of wood that seems to shine and sparkle within the dimly lit room. The figure seemed to float in front of him and he also noticed that her reflection was not the same as he saw in front of him. It revealed another beauty that seemed about 16. Her beauty even rivaled his Buffy. 'Since when is she mine?' He questioned his own thought soon after. 'More like never will be mine,' he mentally berated himself. His lopsided smile turned into a frown and Tsunami mistook it for is displeasure at his current situation.

"Who are you and where are we?" Xander asked tentatively.

"I am Tsunami, the ship of Jurai," the woman replied softly as if that would answer everything. Tsunami knew better. She could reveal only a small amount. The rest would come later. "Jurai is the strongest empire in the universe with the help of my daughter-space trees. And yes, we are in space, orbiting the Earth, Alexander," she quickly replied as she noticed him about to ask. "We are inside of me."

"Inside of you?" he asked confused. "But you are a human being… at least you look like it. I should know better coming from the Mouth of Hell. Great, another Demon after me. I am definitely the PTB's punching bag. First a bug lady, then a mummy…" he kept babbling until he noticed the figure giggling at him. This shook him out of his little babble fest and he thought about what she said about tree ships. "I see... You are the owner of this ship."

"No. The owner is Sasami," replying once again as if that could answer everything.

"Sasami?" Now he was perplexed. Who could this Sasami person be?

"Yes...And I am the mind of this ship."

"I don't understand. Please explain," he was starting to get curious, now that he had established that she wasn't going to hurt him, like Drusilla had been.

"I am the mother of all the space trees, and we helped the Juraian people create one of the most powerful and stable empires in the whole universe. You're here because you're a descendent of two princes of that empire. One is from your paternal side and one on your maternal side. I look over all of the royal family, but you, Alexander, are special. You are the future of this world. I stopped your death and transformation, before it was too late. There will be side-effects. Only the strong Juraian energy in you allowed me to change you back, the demon was still in its weak stage when I attacked it. You will have vampire strength; its healing will combine with your Juraian enhanced healing. Other side-effects will come as time goes by. I only hope that they aren't on the evil side of the spectrum. Now here is the hard part, you see through the screen." She pointed to the big screen that appeared behind her in front of the tree. "That is Sunnydale, if you chose to help the Slayer, I will have to block your powers or you can go with me and learn to control them."

"Please take me there," Xander said almost immediately. "They're my friends… I can't just leave them."

"I cannot leave this place. Therefore, I will have to block your memory of this time, as well as your powers. I am sorry but you would be a danger to everyone on the planet without training." Xander sighed, and nodded. He understood.

"You must go alone. Can you go alone?" she asked him.

"I don't mind it. I have been alone all my life," Xander replied sadly.

"All right. Until then, trust in your own powers. I may have blocked them, but your subconscious will remember everything. Call upon them if no choice is left for you or your loved ones. Please be careful… the Hellmouth is extremely dangerous."

*********End of flashback**********

Tsunami approached him after Xander had finished an intense physical routine.

"Alexander, it is time for you to begin your next stage of training," she said. "This is a stage that has been lost to Jurai for millennia. Long ago there were two branches of the Juraian people. Those with the pure Juraian powers, and those with magical powers. Both powers came from within the person, but the magical powers also allowed the user to use nature and its surroundings. After a civil war between the two, the magical users left Jurai and came here to Earth." The sadness about what she was revealing was clear on her beautiful face.

"Are you telling me that earth was colonized by the Juraian people? How can that be? We don't have advance technology and we don't have the space trees, either… at least, last time I checked," Xander replied, confused.

"It was found that the space trees could not dwell on Earth. Earth consisted of the first humans and then the Juraian wizards, at first both cultures blended together. Once the trees set root here, they lose their powers… and that was what happened. By the time this fact was discovered, it was too late, and they had already taken root. It shortened the people's lives, but it also allowed them to concentrate only on their magical powers. Again, there was a break in the ranks as people who did not display the magical powers started to despise their brothers and relatives who did have magic. After many years of persecution, the wizards decided to hide all aspects of their powers and separate themselves form the other non-magic people. And that is how it has been for hundreds of years."

"What does this have to do with me?" Xander asked, getting into the story now.

"Alexander, don't you see? You are one of the few that has both powers I once gave the Juraian people. Both the pure Juraian energy and the magical powers run through you. You are one of the few that can actually hold your body together with that much power. Now it's time to develop the magical aspect of your power that has remained hidden up until now. Alexander, I want you to start training in magic. You will enter a new world, one with its own dangers and challenges. The people in that world know about the demons, but they do not know of the space trees and the empire. They wiped it out of their archives after the space trees took root."

"As long as I have this sword, I think I can manage," Xander said confidently, gripping his Akiri-ken with a solid grasp, as if the sword was an integral part of him. He hadn't left it since the day he bonded with it.

"The sword is only a tool for drawing and concentrating your power, Alexander. Trust your own powers. Have faith in them, and they will help you well in life," Tsunami told him.

"My power? Mine?" he asked, confused. He had learned to use his weapon and was still learning to do so. He trusted it with his life, but his own power still frightened him. He could understand an energy weapon, sure; but power within himself, no. He was still thinking the same way he did while in Sunnydale all those years: he wasn't supposed to have powers. The others had their powers.

"I will teleport you to a train station in London, England. From there, you will arrive at Hogwarts School of Wizardry and Witchcraft. The school headmaster, Professor Dumbledore, will provide all that is needed. He knows about me and he is the only magic user I trust with that knowledge. Be careful and enjoy yourself," she said, handing him a letter with the Hogwarts seal and a train ticket.

"I have no problem with going to school," Xander said, confidently. "But before I go I have to fulfill a promise I made to a friend and make one last check on Sunnydale."

"Very well," Tsunami answered, dipping her head, acknowledging the request, and knowing how important his promises are to him. "But if you are talking about seeing Faith: she was released in June from prison. She resides in Sunnydale." Before Xander could respond to her not telling him this information sooner, Tsunami extended her powers toward him and he vanished.

Alley next to the Magic Box

Sunnydale, CA

Night time

Xander appeared in the alley next to the Magic Box, not where he wanted to be. He had been trying to avoid the gang for the last few months, and now Tsunami had dropped him about as close as she could get him without actually dropping him right in the middle of a meeting.

He knew that, if they saw him, they would want him to stay with them. He couldn't stay now, now that he knew what his purpose in life was. "Well, I better get going before anyone sees me." But before he made a run for it, he couldn't resist throwing just one look through the back room window.

He slowly opened the back door to the training room. From the towels sprawled out on the floor and then seeing the dummy he built was totally destroyed, he deduced that the training room had been used recently. 'Wow! Faith must be pissed to totally destroy it like that. Hmm… I wonder if Giles can fix it. Probably not,' he mentally chuckled. Making his way to the door towards the front room, he came to a quick stop and slowly pushed the door slightly to peek through. What he saw shook him to his core.

He saw Buffy and Willow talking in the room. Seeing her again… alive… after all this time… Xander's emotions went into overload, and he could feel his knees start to buckle. He was about to run when the look on Buffy's face, as well as the energetic manner in which she was waving her hands, snapped him out of his panic attack.

Front room

Magic Box

Willow had closed the store as soon as Buffy had run into the store in tears. Now she was waiting for Buffy to stop pacing and start telling her what had happened. "What happened, Buffy? What got you so worked up? Is it Faith? Did she do something?" Willow asked the later with a slightly elevated voice, indicating that her protective streak towards her friend was flaring up again.

Willow's remark only got Buffy's emotions more worked up. She paced more and kept repeating. "That bitch!" over and over. Finally Willow got tired of Buffy's routine, grabbed her, and sat her down in the chair next to hers.

"Ok Buffy. Tell me what happened." Willow took her seat and calmly waited for her friend to start telling.

In the backroom Xander also waited and hoped it wasn't bad news. Even though he should know better than to hope… something deep inside of him warned him that something was seriously wrong, the part of himself that was his warrior's instinct.

Buffy took a big breath and said, "Faith and I where patrolling and just getting along. You know; we have been getting closer and becoming friends again. And then she just got all sad and told me some of what happened with her and Xander," Buffy sobbed, taking another breath, trying to recompose herself.

"What happened, Buffy?" Willow was still of the opinion that Faith couldn't be trusted. She was also jealous of how fast Faith and Buffy had gotten over what happened in the past. What really irked her was that Faith was the one that helped Buffy break through her mental breakdown, something that she herself hadn't been able to do.

In the backroom, Xander gulped, patted his instincts on the back, and rubbed his forehead from the sweat that was forming. He knew exactly where this was going, and he didn't like this one bit.

"That bastard, if I ever see him I'll cut it off. I will definitely cut it off!" Buffy shouted, waving her arms in a slash motion, one that scared Willow a little bit. "He slept with her, on the same day I came back, he slept with her!" she shouted, starting to cry again.

Willow moved her chair up to Buffy and hugged her friend. "Maybe he was lonely, or lost. I mean your death did hit us all hard. It's Faith's fault, she took advantage of him."

"NOOOOO!" Buffy screamed. "Don't defend him. Faith was in jail, he went to her. He took advantage of her friendship toward him!"

The pain that Xander was feeling was far beyond anything he could describe. First the elation that she was alive and then the pain from her words… it was too hard for him to handle. Never in his life had he felt so much emotional pain, not even at her death. Maybe it was because he had let her down, maybe because he soiled her memory, or maybe it was because he felt the truth in all her words. 'I've hurt the two people that are closest to my heart! I don't deserve them. I have to go. But I promised Faith that I would see her about this time… But I can't. Not now. Not like this. A letter will have to do,' Xander thought.

Xander's old apartment

Xander was now the one pacing back and forth. He didn't know what to do. The recent events had just been too much. He finally sat down and wrote the letter for Faith. He felt like crap, all he ever did was hurt the people he loved. This was so much like the 'fluke', but worse. He was so agitated he didn't notice that half the stuff in his room was not his and that it was feminine in nature.

With his heavy heart he picked up the letter and made his way to the nearest cemetery to lessen the tension for the Slayers. 'The least I can do is kill something for them,' his thoughts were morbid to say the least.

Walking through the streets of Sunnydale seemed to calm him down, but the lingering pain of hurting the two women that he would do anything for, was still there. He had been going through the conversation Buffy had with Willow and the events that night he visited Faith. The more we went through the memories the more he believed Buffy's assessment.

He made his way into the nearest cemetery. Ironically, it was named after the person most responsible for the people in it, Mayor Wilkins. Well, Wilky did leave with a bang. He tried to figure out how he was going to remedy the situation with the two Slayers, but nothing he thought up could help him. His internal contemplation was interrupted, when he noticed that a heavy light was coming from the mausoleum a few feet in front of him.

"What the fuck," he whispered. "Better not be any vamps, I'm not in the mood for any of them. I want a challenge." He slowly made his way toward the mausoleum using all the stealth training he got, but of course being Xander; he stepped on a branch. The crack of the branch seemed extremely loud to him. However loud it was, it wasn't enough to alert the beings in the crypt. He lowered himself next to the entrance and listened to what was being said.

"We have to stop the Slayers. Both of them together have almost decimated our forces. Only together can we have a chance," Xander heard something say. The voice was dark and malicious, and Xander couldn't resist throwing a peek inside. He soon pulled his head away from the entrance, and wished he hadn't looked.

Seven vampires who seemed to worship the Drane-ra Demon were there as well as half a dozen Chaos demons. They seemed to hang on every word that left the Drane-ra's malformed mouth. "But the Slayers have never been beaten," one of the vampires said. Apparently, the other vampires agreed with that assessment, and some hubbub started rising, which Xander could faintly make out as questions on how to deal with two pissed-off Slayers.

"I have been watching them for years. Beating them now will be an easy task. They have always had the foolish human male to protect them and help them at their greatest time of need. He is gone, and defeating them without him will be an easy task." His confidence radiated out toward the others and it seemed to help the moral.

Xander couldn't believe his eyes or ears. A dozen vampires and demons working together on trying to kill the people that meant everything to him? So they think with me gone that they can't defend themselves, what load of shit. But since I am here I might as help lessen their numbers.

He scanned the room trying to familiarize himself with the opposition and with the room. The room looked like the typical crypt, resembling Spike's lovely home. To the right of the entrance, he noticed Catherine Madison, who appeared to have been turned. 'Great now I have to deal with a psycho-vampire witch. At least now she can stay gone. How in HELL did she get out of that trophy? Damn it. I should have thought of it then. Of course, when we blew up the school it must have knocked her out. Looks like the retard Lyle Gorche is back. That idiot couldn't do anything right, he'll be an easy kill.' Next to Lyle Gorche was some one that almost made Xander laugh and reveal his position.

Lyle Gorche was awed by the Drane-ra. He had heard that nothing could kill the demon, not even decapitation. His new girlfriend was beginning to irritate him, though. She kept blabbering about how the ugly Drane-ra should listen to her, since she was as powerful as Spike.

"You know, he isn't all that tough. I fought Angel, Buffy, and even Spike. And what's this crap he is talking about human male, the only human male with Buffy is Xander. And let me tell you: he is such a lousy fighter, I kicked his ass and he ran away, crying like a girl. He punches like a girl without a fashion sense. I still don't understand what Cordelia saw in him. I mean, he's weak and he didn't have any money, or a descent car," Harmony kept talking and rambling on and on.

Finally Lyle had enough, "Shut the fuck up wench before I stake you."

Xander noticed that the two vampires moved away from the others and started verbally abusing each other. He knew he couldn't fight them all, but he could try. There was only one way he could possible gain an upper hand so he stood up and walked into the room.

The moment he entered, everyone around him just stopped what they where doing and just stared at him.

The Drane-ra was shocked at the evil radiating from the human, it was all encompassing and it gave him a perverse tingle of joy just to be in its presence. He couldn't lose his dominant hold on the group now, "Who the hell are you, mortal? Why have you disturbed us? Do you have a death wish? In that case, I will be more than happy to fulfill that wish," Drane-ra growled at Xander.

Xander's face was concealed by the hood on the robe he wore, "You dare enter my territory and try to harm my enemies?!" Xander barked, trying his best to sound like an 'evil overlord'. "I do not believe in 'the enemies of my enemies are my friends'. Anyone who tries to hurt the Slayers, other than me, will wish for death." He emphasized his point by increasing the dark atmosphere he was radiating. He mentally snickered. If they only knew that it was the 'foolish boy'. "Drane-ra. I know what kills your kind. I wouldn't challenge me if I where you."

"You DARE challenge me boy, I'll have...."

"Shut the fuck up!!" Xander bellowed, cutting off the demon's reply. "Look at you!" Xander continued, his arms sweeping around the room. "Look at what you have here! This group is pathetic! I feel like killing myself for being in the same room, let alone work with them! Although I do might add that the lovely Catherine Madison is a nice touch." 'Can't have them all charge at me, especially psycho witch there.' He turned toward her, and noticed that the vampire in question gave him a seductive smile, which only caused him to shiver in disgust.

"Hmm... let's see about five fledgling vamps and a bunch of walking chaos demons. I heard a story that a pathetic vampire named Spike lost his love to a Chaos demon. You demons lower yourself to associate with vamps, that's just stupid," Xander finished.

Lyle who was behind Xander slowly made his way toward him, using all the vampire stealth he had.

"Hey! My Spikey is not pathetic, even though he tried to stake me." Not one with much mass upstairs, Harmony was about to charge him when Lyle interrupted her.

"Hey you're mine, stop mentioning that loser..." Realizing his mistake too late Lyle was knocked back by a punch to the chest from Xander.

"Don't sneak up on me and don't fuck with me. You want a real leader, then I am it. Anyone care to challenge me, feel free come and get some." He noticed that the Drane-ra, Catherine, and four chaos demons started to leave as he raised his aura. 'I guess they're not as dumb as I thought. But it still leaves two chaos demons and seven vampires. What to do?'

He was able to dodge the two Chaos demons that attacked him immediately. But the vampires thought it meant he was a weakling and attacked him.

The fledglings attacked him en masse and started to pound on him, kicking whenever they saw an opening. "Fuck," grunted Xander as another kick hit him in the ribs. He jumped above and over the vampires. As he landed, he ignited both sides of the Akiri-ken and started to hack them apart, not really using any stylish moves, but going for quick kills.

Seeing the vampires get defeated so easily, the Chaos demons ran through the entrance into the cemetery. Limping in pursuit, Xander was not happy and noticed that one of the Chaos demons had turned around and was charging him. 'Not so smart is it?' Xander asked himself, smiling slightly.

*****

Having been punched by Buffy didn't make for a happy Faith. 'I knew she would do that, I just knew it. Attack first; ask questions later, just like me.' She chuckled at the last part. Rubbing her bruised cheek, she noticed a couple of chaos demons running from a crypt to her left.

"Now what could scare chaos demons, hmm?" She learned from the past not to go running into things, but that didn't stop her from slowly jogging into trouble.

She saw a figure blast past her from the crypt, it had a brown cloak and he seemed to be running faster than even she could go. One thing popped into her head, 'Demon, Demon, Demon, powerful at that.' She could feel the dark aura flowing from it; it made her skin crawl.

"Hey you," she wanted to kill him before he became a threat. The chaos demons could wait. The figure just ignored her and continued to catch up to the Chaos demons.

It seemed that the Chaos demons sensed him before he slowed down because one of them backhanded him through the air. "What the fuck," she was shocked to see that the other Chaos demon's head just slide off.

She ran toward the Chaos demon noticing that it was distracted and staked it, "Now that was too easy."

*****

"Oh fuck, oh fuck, oh fuck! First I have to run after those fucks and then I get distracted and get backhanded. Now what?" He slowly got up, scanned the cemetery, and tried to see who had called him before.

The second he noticed the figure that just staked the Chaos demon, he froze. Nothing, absolutely nothing was being processed in his mind. As she turned toward him, and slowly and seductively stalked towards him he snapped out of his trance. He dropped the letter that he wrote, knowing she would find it.

"Goodbye," he said as a big light surrounded him and he was gone.

*****

"Looks like droopy made another round," Spike whispered to himself. He made his way to where Xander had been, and quickly picked up the letter before Faith could see what he was doing.

Faith was to say the least confused, she had just been in front of a demon, a very powerful one and it suddenly froze and its aura changed. The change was so fast and complete it shook her up. "Spike. Did you just see what I saw?" the expression on Faith's face was priceless.

Spiked laughed, "You know, pet, I have never seen you so shocked before. And yeah, I saw the whole light show. Bloody hell, it gave me a headache just looking at it."

"He sounded familiar… I just can't figure who it was, but he totally had my Slayer sense going crazy. It felt like he gave off a cloud of evil." She thought about it and just for a brief second, the presence was familiar, and comforting, 'but how could a demon have that kind of feeling?'

Her earlier statement caused Spike to stumble and laugh, "Yeah, evil, right."

Being laughed at never really went well with Faith. Snapping out of her confusion she grabbed Spike by the neck and lifted him off the ground, "What the fuck do you know?"

'Shit a pissed off psycho-slayer, not what I need.' "I don't know anything, alright? Look, if I find out anything I'll let you know."

She dropped him and he ran off. "Fucking bitch, I'll get you and the fucking wanker too," he mumbled as he ran towards his crypt. "Now I wonder what this letter says," he laughed all the way home.
