AN: And still this bunny won't die, so here goes part 2.

ApocSM: Here you go, thanks

c-wolf: I had messed up, his name is called Black Wind. And he's one of, if not the, main characters of Final Fantasy: Unlimited. The Magun is a magical weapon that takes special ammo that cause Summons. Wonderland is the world FF:U is set in.


His friends had been worried about him since Halloween, but he no longer really cared. His mask of the Fool as Xander had vanished, replaced with someone who answered to Alex or Alexander. Most of the school was afraid of him, and the demons thought he was some sort of diety that had descended to Earth to bring death and destruction, leaving the craters to prove it.

He'd picked up far to much of Kaze to really care.

His skills had improved to a point where he truely was a dangerous opponent, and Angelus fled town as soon as he was released, but Dru and her new boyfriend, someone he had yet to identify, had found themselves a demon, and Kendra had stuck around at least somewhat, though most of that was due to reports of a cloaked figure that kept showing up to deal with threats in the area, and when he had summoned Ifrit, well, a being made up of hellfire didn't sit to well with the Watchers.

But again, he really didn't care.

His actions seemed to make him even more mysterious, and he didn't talk as much. He'd gotten himself emancipated easily enough, and the police made it a point ot avoid any area he was in after an incident when he used the Magun to deal with a doppleganger had shown up and tried to wipe the cops out.

People viewed him as their protector now, a mysterious force that showed up out of the smoke to deal with the darkness that filled the city. He himself was more indiferent to others, but the demons irked him, something in him made him view them as inferior, pests that deserved to be eliminated, and with the Magun, he had begun to do just that.

The creature was considered to be nearly invincible by the worlds standards, but then again his own power was not of the world. And the Magun was definately not forged, it was a part of him, his life, his soul, his heart, just as it had been Kaze's.

One thing that did concern him was that he had managed to add Kaze's luck to his own, and well, bad luck plus even more bad luck means problems most of the time.

And his current situation was something that just proved that Murphy was getting annoyed with him.

He walked slowly through the mall, pistol free in his left hand. It wasn't the one Kaze had carried as that one had turned back to mere plastic, but the magic of Soil and the Magun had kept that part real.

The blue critter in bondage gear was ranting at Buffy, Willow, Cordelia, Giles, and strangely enough Oz about how it was unbeatable by anything they had. Alex sighed, a small fraction of his mind wondering just when the Watchers and by deault his allies would get their heads out of the medieval era, hell, even Wonderland had better gear then they did.

Alexander stepped from the shadows without a sound as the Judge prepared to attack and fired once from his custom weapon, something that had enough force to send the demon tumbling.

"Who dares?" it yelled at the entity who just stood their, a look of indifferance masking his face, "So the so called diety has come to the fight after all?"

He didn't reply, just stood there calmly.

"Well, no matter, nothing you have can hurt me," the creature said redirecting its attention at the red caped being who had challenged it.

"Xander?" Willow asked with an odd tone as he stood there.

He felt something and moved the Magun ito view, a faint silver flash visible for an instant on the golden weapon.

"It moved," he said calmly, unflinching even as possible death prepared to destroy him, "Soil is my power!"

Power flowed out of the magical device as wind swirled, a windmill type device extended and began to spin rapidly before the entire thing exploded and reformed into a massive golden pistol with three chambers that opened.

"The Magun has thawed," he said as he aimed it at his foe, something that startled the demon.

"A gun?" the demon laughed, "Like that would stop me!"

"The weapon that took my Spikey!" Drusilla yelped and ran for cover, her boyfriends, another vampire, right behind her, both having survived witnessing the effects of the weapon that was about to see use.

"The Soil Charge Triad to use against you has been decided," Alex said, his voice staying calm and level as he pulled a capsule of black powder from his belt and tossed it into the air to land in the first chamber that then sealed it in, "From within the depths of the Earth, Coal Black!"

"Harvested from mines in the darkness," he continued, holding up a metalic silver capsule, "Mythril Silver!"

"And finally," he finished with a red one, "From the life of a slain innocent, Blood Red!"

He felt the three powers grow as he prepared to attack.

"Runaway, I summon you" he declared as he pulled the trigger, firing off three beams of energy, each corasponding to one of the capsules, each missing the demon to converge at the wall, "Doomtrain!"

The Judge turned to look at the wall, "Ha, you missed."

Alexander didn't respond as the dust faded from him.

And then the wall deformed to appear like an old railway tunnel, a steam whistle sounded withing the appearing darkness that flooded the room.

"What?" the Judge stammered as he saw the monsterous train come charging out of it to destroy him and then it was over as the train dissipated into smoke after smashing through the target.

His friends stared for a moment before turning to look at their savior, only to find him gone.

"Xander?" Willow whispered, half to herself and half to the wind.


The being in question was standing on the roof watching the crescent moon rise against the stars.
