Part 6

The small group arrived at Giles's home one hour later. The group was standing outside the apartment; Algernon had already stated his opinion that he did not think this was such a good idea. Spike did not like Xander's idea much either, but when he had seen how Xander had explained Algernon why he wanted this nobody had said anything about it.

"I want you to behave yourself in there," Lucifer said to them. Gideon nodded his head knowing that if he did not behave he would not get the cookies that his daddy had promised him. Algernon and Thaddeus said nothing though Spike could see that they knew that they should follow their father's orders.

"That means you too William," Spike turned towards Lucifer ones more surprised that he was telling him to behave. He never behaved at the watchers house. "If you don't I will give you a beating that you will not forget easily." Then Lucifer grinned and Spike could honestly say that he did not like whatever that had come to the Morning Star's mind. "Better," Lucifer said still with the grin on his face. "I will let Alexander give you a beating you will never forget."

Spike looked over at Xander and noticed that the boy was blushing; there was no time of pondering about it now though he had a watcher to annoy.

Xander walked over to the door and knocked though instead of the door being opened by Giles the vampire among them walked past him and kicked the door open. "Spike!" He glared at the vampire, if he continued this way his father would make him actually give the vampire a beating and that was something that he would like to avoid.

The vampire gave him one of his trademarks smirks and walked into the apartment without even saying anything. Xander sighed and followed him into the apartment knowing that the rest of his family would follow him.

"Spike please put your booths of my table," was the first thing Xander heard when he entered the room the blonde vampire had already managed to annoy Giles. It only took him a few seconds this time, which had to be a record.

As he entered the main room he saw that the whole gang was gathered. Giles was standing in the middle of the room looking at Spike who did not remove do as the watcher had told him. Dawn was reading in what looked like a very old and dusty book. He could hear Willow, Riley and Anya talking in the kitchen. Even Willow's new girlfriend Cora was with them, which did not happen often, as she seemed to dislike him, Spike and Anya from the start.

Sunnydale had still not gotten a new slayer after Buffy had died, since she had died ones already, which had made a new slayer to be called. The trick did not work twice it seemed because Giles had not heard of another slayer being called after Buffy's second death. Faith was still kicking evil demon butts though, last time they had heard from her she was in Las Vegas with Wesley.

Giles seemed to notice that more people had entered the already crowded apartment he turned towards them. "Hello Xander," he said before looking over at the small group with men that he had not seen before. "This must be your family then."

"Yes, G-Man," Xander said a big smile on his face this could be fun. "This is my father Lucian." He gestured to his father as he talked. Good thing that his father had found a name that he could use when he was visiting family down on earth. He did not know how people would react if they found out that they were in the same room as Lucifer. Then again Giles was known to all of the supernatural stuff, it would do no good freaking him out at the moment though. "And this is my older brothers Thaddeus, Gideon and Algernon."

"It's a pleasure to meet you," Giles said shacking hands with all of them. Gideon who was very strong did not know how to control himself though and almost knocked the watcher of his feet.

"It's nice to meet you as well Mr. Giles," Xander's father said. "I have heard a lot about you. If I did not know better I would say that Alexander has chosen himself a new father figure."

Xander could see that Giles was touched by what his father was saying, though the watcher tried to hide the blush by taking of his glasses and cleaning them. He walked over to the couch and sat down beside Spike who was smirking, the vampire really did love it when Giles did not know what to say.

Giles finally managed to come back to his real self again. "Well, please sit down," he said gesturing to the couch and chairs around the place. "I am sorry about the mess, we are about to research about a new de-" The watcher stopped himself when he figured out what he had been about to say.

"Do not worry about it," Xander's father said going over to one of the chairs and sat down. "You should see my place when it is inhabited by some of my sons friends."

Gideon walked over to Lucifer and sat down on the floor by his feet leaning towards his father's legs. Lucifer automatically started to stroke his long fingers in his son's hair. Xander, Thaddeus and Algernon thought nothing of it as they were pretty much used to it. Though Xander could see that the others in the room saw their brother's behaviour as odd.

Algernon and Thaddeus had both placed themselves on the couch were Spike and Xander was sitting on.

"I never knew that Xander had such a big family," Dawn said breaking the silence in the room. "He never speak much of his family life."

Lucifer smiled at the younger girl. "Xander does not like to acknowledge that we exist most of the time. He does have his own life to take care of. I am in town to settle some business and it was the perfect excuse to see my youngest son again. We haven't been very good at keeping in touch with each other."

"Yeah, lil' bro here doesn't show up to our family reunions," Thaddeus said before starting to ruffle Xander's hair.

"Cut it out," Xander said trying to push his older brother away but off course he had no chance to do so. That meant that he had to bring out his secret weapon. "I will tell dad about the time you dated that Werewolf that Dad did not like that you dated behind his back."

It worked like a charm though it also caused confusing in the room.

"You know about werewolves?"

"You dated a werewolf?"

"Thaddeus I told you I did not like you dating that werewolf!"

Everybody was speaking at ones. Xander's father was telling Thaddeus how disappointed he was, Giles was surprised that Xander's family knew about the supernatural life and Dawn was curious about how it was like dating a werewolf. There was so much noise that Anya, Willow and Riley came running into the room to see what was going on.

"Xander what is going on here?" Willow asked him, as he was the only person except for Spike that knew what was going on. "And who is all these people?"

"This is my family," he answered. "Giles just got to know that they know about the things that goes bump in the night and my father is a little irritated at my brother Thaddeus at the moment."

"Did you tell them about the demons?" She asked.

"No, they have always known about demons and other creatures," by other creature he off course meant devils and things that he knew that Willow was not ready to understand at the moment. "My father is a very high involvement with demons you could say."

"Is he evil?"

Was Lucifer really evil? Xander had never thought of his father as evil, he was a necessity when it came to keeping order in things. Good could exist without evil, and his father had always taken his job very seriously. Which was one reason why Xander hoped that he would not choose him to take over when he retired. Xander knew that he would never do such a good job as his father.

"No."

"Well, that's good then," Willow said giving him a small smile, that was his Willow always so understanding.
