Rise of the Juggernaut

Once there you could tell that Riley had gone to a lot of trouble to
set this up. There were cars set into piles in a straight line
welded together so that when he lifted them they wouldn't fall to
pieces. In all there were four piles.

"Each pile is five tons each. If you can lift the first pile place
it on the second and try your luck, but don't over do it. There's no
need to get hurt by showing off." Safety was the key thing in
Riley's mind since there weren't any medics around to help if the
cars were too much for him and he dropped them on himself.

"Sure, no horseplay with the rusty death traps." His body might have
changed but his humor was still going strong. He walked over and
with great ease lifted the first pile. Then tossed it onto of the
second one.

"I said no showing off man. That means no tossing anything that
weighs TONS, alright!?!" Riley might have been enjoying the cool
acts of superhuman strength but it was still dangerous.

"Spoil my fun." He threw the soldier a crooked grin as he went to
the second pile. Like the first it wasn't difficult for him to lift
in the least. Neither did the third or fourth.

"Twenty tons, twenty tons! It boggles the mind. Superman better
watch out." The juggernaut couldn't help but blush somewhat under
the praise. That's what happened when you went years without getting
any praise from the people you called parents. If you could even
call his parents by that name.

"Come on you have to be excited. Your like the strongest person on
earth!" The Ohio born boy wasn't good at keeping the awe out of his
voice and it only made Xander more embarrassed.

"We don't know that. There could be mutants out there that can do
more then twenty tons." They were now driving back to 'The Magic
box' as fast as they could so no one would spot Xander.

"You could do more then twenty tons, the only reason you had to stop
was because you ran out of cars." People were doing their best to
ignore the giant man in the back of the tiny pickup truck as they
parked and made there way into Giles' shop.

"So how'd it go?" Buffy asked looking extremely bored and casting
hateful looks at Anya, who by the looks of it was in another one of
her 'money is wonderful' rants.

"He's a freaking god!" Riley was acting like a kid who'd gotten a
new toy for his birthday.

"Well I could have told you that. The things he can do with his
tongue..." All there did their best to pretend they hadn't heard
Anya speak.

"Really? How much did he lift? Two thousand pounds? More?" Giles
asked. After all it was recorded that the strongest slayer in
history could lift well over two thousand and fifty pounds. No one
else human or demon had been able to do more.

"Twenty tons, easy." There was no mistaking the pride Riley had for
his friend in that moment. The others just sat there with their
mouths wide open.

"Are...are you sure?" Giles had dropped the mummy's hand he had been
trying to stuff into a handling bag and went over to get a better
look at Xander.

"It was the coolest thing I've ever seen. He didn't even break a
sweat." The giant teen was doing his best to hide behind one of
Giles's book selves but it was like hiding a TV behind a thimble.
"My word." The watcher couldn't help but examine Xander closely from
head to toe.

"It was nothing." He tried to shrug it off, having all his friends
fawning over how strong he was, was flattering to no end. And since
he wasn't used to it, it very embarrassing.
"No undressing my boyfriend with your eyes farm boy." Anya accused
Riley.

"What? I was not! I just had this image in my head of Xander in a US
uniform. He wouldn't need any weapons the bad guys would just turn
and run on sight." The soldier said his eyes shooting daggers at the
ex-demoness.

"Whatever you say. You and Angel are a lot alike, Buffy seems to
like the flowery fellows."

"An! That's enough." Xander's deep voice boomed throughout the shop.
All eyes turned to him. "There's no need to pick on Riley." Ohio
perked up at being defended.

"I see your not standing up for Angel." Anya pointed out.

"Deadboy? With the hair gel and those shirts of his? How could I in
good sense tell anyone he didn't look flowery?" He joked playfully.

"Could we stop going on about the fact that my ex looked like a
cross dresser?" Everyone turned from Xander and looked at her in
surprise. "Oh come on, he was prettier then I was."

Even Giles had to laugh at that one. "Oh Xan! The suit came in
sooner then I thought. It's in the back." Buffy told him.

"Neat." With that very Oz like phrase he went into the back to check
it out. It wasn't at all like he expected. The helmet for one was
huge and covered his whole face with only two eyes holes and one for
his mouth. The rest was covered. Unknown to him Anya had followed
him into the back.

He was only made aware of her presence when she reached around and
started groping him.

"WOW. You are a big fellow." Her eyes had already darkened with
lust.

"Come on An, they'll be waiting for us." He argued but didn't stop
her from undoing his toga. It only took moments under her steady
hands to bring 'him' to life. And boy was that a sight.

"I..." For once Anya seemed completely speechless. "I want to break
up."

Took a minute before those words fully sank in. "What! Why?" After
all they had been doing great as a couple. Romance and sex. It's the
American dream, and there shouldn't have been any reason for her to
want to break up.

"Well look at it!" She gestured to his manhood. "That would split me
in two! There's no humanly possible way we could have sex. Without
that what do we have? Movies? Its not like you could take me out to
fancy restaurants."

"An." But she cut him off. "I think we should see other people, or I
should. Its not like you can anymore." She wasn't even trying to be
cruel just logical. Selfish, egocentric, and spoiled but she did
have many good points.

And with a pat on the shoulder she left him and went back to work.
He just stood there for almost half an hour running the whole thing
through his mind over and over. Until that is someone knocked on the
door.

"You ok in there? Does it not fit right? Because we can send it back
if it's faulty." Giles' voice brought him out of his stupor and he
went and changed into the suit. Once he was dressed he had a little
difficultly locking the four clasps on the helmet in place, but he
finally got it and walked into the main room.

Tara and Willow had gotten there sometime during his time in the
backroom and were standing with the others. Anya wasn't there. So
there he was standing ten foot tall and covered in black leather
with a kick ass helmet on his head. The muscles covering his body
were being shown off nicely.

Outward he looked like he was ready to take on the whole world, but
inward he was just happy to be wearing real cloths again. "So, how
do I look?" The whole room was eerily quiet all of a sudden.

"Not at all flowery in those pants." Laughter broke the silence.
They couldn't see it but Xander's grin was huge, but because of the
awkward sized hole that was no bigger then a human fist all they see
was what looked like him baring his teeth.

"So now that I'm all dressed up where do I go?"

"Well how bout a quick patrol. Then we can go looking for Adam. Wait
until he gets a look at you, bet he'll piss his robotic pants." As
always Buffy was gung ho about getting into a fight, Riley grabbed
his tazzer gun and Xander just followed their lead.
