AU with Xander being someone that you wouldn't expect him to be. It's a mystery. You'll see.

Xander walks into the office of his work place that looks like a regular corporate company, but it is not. He heads into his office and sits down on his chair. In an instant he is transported to another building. His chair turning around facing a pretty blonde with her hair up in a bun and wearing glasses.

"Welcome Mr. Harris," says the blonde. "How was your day?"

"Eventful," he replies as the blonde helps him put on a jacket.

"Follow me Mr. Harris," she says.

"As you wish Ms. Maclay," says Xander following the blonde down a corridor. "Ms. Rosenberg will see you now." The blonde nods her to the red head in a white coat. She winks at her and turns to Mr. Harris.

"Mr. Harris, a fax came in saying you destroyed my speedboat," says Ms. Rosenberg.

"Yeah, sorry about that," says Xander. "I ran into a little trouble and there was this bomb. It was either save the children's home or bye bye boat. You know which one I had to choose."

"Right, Mr. Harris," She gave him a smirk and led him into another room. "This is your new mood of transportation. It's bullet proof, has around 50 different types of ammunition, and an mp3 player. I do expect it to come back in one piece." Xander gives her a smile then looks at the car.

"Thanks Will," says Xander. "You're the best." He gives her a pat on the back and opens the car door.

"You'll receive your mission once you have reached London, England," says another pretty girl in a black skirt and high heel boats carrying a clipboard. "From there you'll meet Rupert Giles aka 'The Watcher'. He will direct you to your task and how to achieve it. Good luck, Mr. Harris. Not that you need it."

"I'm touched that you care Faith," says Xander with a grin.

"It's not fair I want to go with you," says another pretty girl coming into the big room. Xander rolls his eyes and turns to the girl.

"Dawny, you're not ready for the field," says Xander. "You need more training."

"But dad," says Dawn whining.

"Dawn I don't want to get into this right now," says Xander. "I'm on a mission now and I need to go." Dawn rolls her eyes at him and folds her arms.

"You know she gets that from you," says Willow Rosenberg with a smile.

"Honey, some day you'll get to go," says Xander. "But not today. I gotta go." Dawn goes over to her dad and gives him a kiss on the cheek.

Then in front of the car two big doors open and Xander drives away so fast that he leaves marks on the ground.

"That's my dad," says Dawn looking at Willow and Faith. "He's so cool."

"Clean up on the lower deck," says Faith into her walkie-talkie. "Yes, again. That's Mr. Harris."

************

Mr. Harris arrives in London, England on schedule to meet Mr. Giles. Xander exits his car and shakes hands with the older man.

"Have a drink?" ask Mr. Giles to Xander. Xander agrees and the two enter a bar down the street. They head to the bar and sit down. Mr. Giles hands over a folder to Xander. He grabs it and takes a look at the content.

"You have there your invitation, your alias, and your exact target," Mr. Giles explains. "Do you own a suit?"

"I own a few," replies Xander still looking at the paper.

"You'll need it," says Mr. Giles. "It's a formal occasion. It's for the youngest daughter of the Duke of Rhode. She's just finished her schooling at the academy."

"Great," says Xander. "I'll be gentleman." He slurps down his drink in one gulp and pats Mr. Giles on the back. "You have a good night."

"Yes, you too," says Mr. Giles who is left wondering how Xander tossed the drink that quickly down. He looks at the cup and takes a whiff of it then nods his head. "Lemon and water." Mr. Giles pays the tab and leaves the bar.

Xander arrives at his hotel room. His bags are already there and on the table is a note. As he takes off his jacket he begins to read the note.

"I got you your favorite cologne made especially for you Factic Number 28," He read the letter from Faith. "Oh, and you'll need a gift for the Duchess. Inside the envelope." Xander takes the envelope and pulls out a golden locket with a diamond in the center.

"That Faith, always thinking ahead of me," says Xander to himself. He nods his head and smiles. Xander puts the locket down on the table and unbuttons his shirt. He heads into the bathroom to wash up before the party.

"It's Buckingham Palace," says Xander going up the steps of the palace. He passes the securities that are very much armed and ready. Following all the royals down a long hallway with a blue carpet that leads to the main room; a gigantic ballroom, Xander looks around to find the stairs. Xander heads to the bar to get a drink. He turns around to checks out the room.

"Here she comes," says someone from the crowd. Everyone moves aside allowing the family to pass through.

The father and mother came through first and the people bow their heads. Behind them comes their daughter accompany by a man with blonde hair and blue eyes. She is covered with a vial on her face.

Xander pulls out his gift for the duchess, but then her eyes caught his making him put the small box away. He freezes and followers her as she is led to the middle of the ballroom. She turns around and the man next to her reveals her face.

The beautiful girl is blonde with green eyes. Her golden hair looks like silk and caresses her face gently. The man beside her is her brother, William, who kisses her on the cheek and heads to one of the doors that lead to another room of the big house.

Xander begins to walk closer to where the duchess stood. He is mesmerize by her and almost begins to forget why he is there. He quickly focuses back on the task, then backs away and heads through the crowd.

The duchess, named Buffy, follows Xander with her eyes as he head to the stairs. The people interrupt her and she loses sight of him.

Xander has a duty to fulfill. He sneaks up the stairs and pulls out a stick of gum. As he starts to chew it he then sees a circuit board. Then he sticks it onto the circuit board, which then starts to break down. The cameras go down. Xander heads into a room with a door that needs to be open with a code. Since the power source is down he is able to pick it without knowing the code. He enters the room and falls to the grown. Lasers are still on and he crawls on the floor to get to the desk where a computer sits. When he arrives to the desk he slowly gets up and puts on gloves. He begins to type some stuff on the computer. Then puts in some disk that takes the information from the computer.

Suddenly he hears some people coming. He quickly gets what he needs at the nick of time and pops out the window without leaving a trace of anybody being in the room. William leads the group into the room and he smells an interesting scent.

Out the window, Xander hangs on the balcony and jumps into the lower window. He enters the room of a girl with a lot of blue all around. He pulls his gloves off and stuffs them in his jacket. Xander looks around the room and sees a lot of trophies and medals on one side of the room. He then heads to the door and turns around to face the room.

Suddenly he hears someone coming down the hall and hides behind the door. The door opens and closes quickly. He takes a deep breath and then sees a small ring on the floor and takes it. Xander exits the room and heads downstairs without being seen.

Back downstairs, Buffy talks to many people. As she reveals a sweet smile she spots the man she saw earlier. She excuses herself and heads over to where she saw the man, but can not find him. She looks around.

"How dose he do that?" she ask herself. She turns away then returns to the ballroom. As she walks into the middle of the ballroom she is tap on the shoulder by an unknown person. Buffy turns around and sees that it's that man that she noticed earlier. He bows his head and takes her hand. She curtsies and gives a smile. Xander pulls the box from his jacket and shows her the locket. He takes it out of the box and puts it on her then they begin to dance.

*********

"Check every bloody room," says William leading a search party for who ever short-circuit the cameras. "He has to be here somewhere." He looks out to the ballroom from the second floor and sees his sister dancing with some guy. William knows many of the guests and could not recall whom is the man dancing with his sister. He grows concern and heads downstairs.

Buffy and Xander are on the dance floor dancing. From afar Xander sees William heading toward them. He swirls Buffy around and disappears into the crowd. Buffy turns around and looks all around.

"Buffy are you all right?" ask William as he reaches her. She turns to him.

"I'm fine," says Buffy. "What's going on?"

"We had a break in," replies William.

"Was anything taken?" she ask.

"No," says William. "The cameras went down."

"Oh," says Buffy surprised.

"Who was that man?" ask William.

"What?" says Buffy.

"The man you were dancing with," says William. He looks at her and sees that she is wearing a locket around her neck. "Who gave you that?"

"It was a gift," says Buffy.

"From that man," says William. He sighs then nods his head.

"I'm not a little girls anymore William," says Buffy. "I can take care of myself."

Mean while outside Xander gets to his car and looks back at the palace giving a grin. He gets into the car and takes the disk out and pops it into his mp3 player that is also a CD-Rom. A little computer screen appears with Willow on the screen.

"I've got it," says Xander to Willow. "I'm sending you the file right now."

"Good job Mr. Harris," says Willow.

"You gotta stop calling me that," says Xander nodding his head. Willow laughs. "It makes me feel old." When he finish sending the file he took the disk out and turn on the car. Unexpectedly some one knocks on his window. Xander lowers the window to see who it is. He is surprised and gives a smile.
