{Voice in Xander's head}
[Xander's reply]
Xander reluctantly followed Angel into a shadowy building, glad that the drive was over but still he still didn't trust the vampire.
[I have a bad feeling about this.]
{Relax. Ben's office is in here. Besides, Ben would kick Angel's undead ass if anything happened to you.}
[Not helping. I thought you said Ben was paralyzed?]
Low chuckle then {He is, but from the waist down. His aim with daggers and swords is still deadly.}
[Sword through Dead boy's chest?]
{Probably much lower.}
A mental picture of Angel with a dagger stuck in a lower, painful place materialized in his mind.
[Ouch.]
{Ben has been known to do that, and Angel knows it. I severely doubt he will let anything happen to you.}
[I hope you're right.]
Down a long hallway in silence than Angel stopped in front of a door. After two soft knocks the vampire opens the door and the two men walk in.
Xander felt tendrils of power go down his spine, and flinched slightly.
"I'm sorry, but I need to be sure that you are a warrior."
Xander looked Ben over. Long light brown hair tied back in a messy ponytail, blue-green eyes, and high cheekbones but not as sharp as Spike's. He winced when Ben moved the wheelchair out from behind a desk and rolled over in front of them.
"We know he is a warrior, now the question is which one he is replacing."
"Which one, you mean both died?" Angel asked.
"Yes. Both were killed on the same day by two different demons."
"I have a girl named Melissa in my head, if that helps."
"Yeah it does. If you have Melissa that means Jenny is in contact with the other."
"Melissa?" Angel asked.
"She's Terry's daughter, which you could tell from talking to her."
"Attitude problems?" Angel asked.
"Not so much attitude as..."
"Referring to sex as embalming but not in the traditional sense?" Xander asked.
Ben laughed. "Exactly."
"Or singing in a bad British accent?"
Ben laughed harder. "Definitely sounds like her."
"What was she singing, or do I want to know?" Angel asked.
"You don't want to know. It was some of the punk that Spike calls music."
"Most likely Generation X from what I remember."
Angel groaned.
"I agree. I can't stand it either but Melissa and Bethany were always listening to it when I went to their apartment."
{Not every time, just most of the time. We also had were playing Megadeth and Flostam and Jetsam.}
"Now that you established that Xander is a snake warrior, what happens next?" Angel asked. "We wait for Jenny's successor before we do the ceremony to put them in active duty."
