Auther:
Magnus.
Disclaimer: I own nothing but this story. X-men and the
concept of
mutants are Marval's. Btvs belongs to Jason. I own
nothing. Poor me.
Thousands
of miles away, South America, a little village off the
cost.
"Giles!
I'm sorry! We would have called sooner but there wasn't any
phones
around." The blond slayer sent a glare at her dark
haired
friend. "If you'd just wire the money, we could get
out of here."
It wasn't really all that bad where they
were. But it was sort of
hard to talk to anyone, since almost no
one spoke English. The only
reason they got by was because Xander,
it seemed, now knew their
tongue.
Upon further thought,
Xander knew a lot of new things. After the
spell had ended she'd
gone back to her normal self, and for the most
part so had
he.
Other then the fact that he still had all the powers he'd
gotten
from his costume. He could still control metal like magic,
making it
do anything he so wanted it too.
And he could
still fly. He'd told her time and time again that he
could just
fly them both back by himself but she wasn't having any
of it. She
still remembered the ride from when she was the
noblewoman.
And it wasn't something she wanted to do ever again.
Xander, or
rather the prototype of the new Eric had created a field
of
'ultra-magnetism' that surrounded the two of them as they flew.
A
flight that if Xander was right, and Buffy didn't doubt he was;
had
been thousands of miles in seconds.
Sure, that was a
quick flight but just thinking about it made her
stomach hurt. She
hadn't even been able to see through the bubble
that had
surrounded them, but it was just too much for her nerves
to
take.
"You'll do it? Thank God! I don't know if I
could have stood
sleeping on someone's dirt floor again Giles."
The blond slayer
thanked him and hung up.
"He says
he'll have the money to us in a few hours. All we need to
do is
just lie low for a little bit." She was talking more to
herself
then him.
The dark-haired teen was only hanging out with her
because she
refused to fly, and he refused to leave her. So as
soon as she got
on the plane he was going to take to the air under
his own power.
Once the money had come he and Buffy said their
goodbyes, and Xander
promised to meet her in Sunnydale. And she
the slayer was off
towards home. Leaving the young man to think.
