Chapter 2
'Well isn't this just peachy' thought Xander as he sat in a chair at the beach while he watched his friends having fun and everyone else on the beach look at him like he was a mutant.
'You think they've never seen a guy with an eye patch before' Xander grumbled in his mind as Willow and Kennedy came up the beach and sat down next too him. "Hey Xan how come your sitting here all moody and not having fun?" Willow asked her best friend. "Yeah c'mon were at a beach on a beautiful day with no more hellmouth cheer up." Kennedy said while playfully hitting his arm.
"I guess I'm just having trouble getting into the 'fun at the beach' mode." He said to the two girls nest too him. "This is because of Anya isn't it?" Willow asked. "Yeah. It's not fair that I'm sitting here on a beach and she's dead." The one-eyed carpenter said sadly. "Xander I know you miss her but it wouldn't make her happy to see you all moody and bummed." The redhead said to him. "Besides we saw you talking to that red head at the club last night." Kennedy said.
"I ran into her and asked her name that's it." Xander said in his defense. "So?" Willow asked her depressed friend. "So what?" Xander asked. "So, what's her name." Willow said. "Paige." Xander responded. "Well there you go, you got a name now all you have to do is ask her out." Kennedy said to him.
"What makes you think I'll even see her again?" Xander asked the young slayer. "I don't know it's a gut feeling." She said back. "Well I think that gut feeling may just be something you ate." Xander said back. "Your such a spoilsport." Willow said teasingly. "Listen you two go have fun I'll be there in a minute." Xander said. "Okay but one minute no more." Willow said getting up and walking back over to the others with Kennedy right behind.
Xander probably would have made good on his word on gotten up to go have fun with his friends, in fact he was going to. That is until, he fell asleep.

Dream Sequence
There was darkness everywhere around Xander as he looked around this new place he was in. "Hello is anyone there?" Xander called out into the darkness but there was no response. Before Xander could do anything else the darkness around him shattered and he found himself in a large, a well lit room that looked like the inside of a temple. In the center of the room was a pedestal that had a glowing object on it. Xander slowly made his way to the pedestal and saw that the item was a sword.
The blade of the sword was about three feet long and the hilt about 10 inches. The sword was clearly designed to be used two handed. The pommel was what appeared to be a small crystal with twin angel wings wrapped around it. The hilt and was silver in color with leather wrapped around it for a better grip, the hand guard had a small glowing jewel imbedded in it with three pieces of metal coming out of both sides making it look like a sunburst.
The blade was glowing a golden color and had strange ruins engraved onto both sides of the blade. Xander was in awe of the sword and slowly reached his hand out for it. Before Xander could touch the sword there was a loud roar behind him. Xander quickly turned around and saw a large demon behind him.
The demon was large and reptilian, at the end of each finger where inch long claws as well as at the end of each toe. It was tall, about eight feet in height. It's eye's were a sickly yellow and seemed to glow. It was covered in green and black scales from head to foot and had to horns on the back of it's head that pointed forward. The demon bared its fangs and lunged at Xander who tried to move to the side but fell to ground. As the demon was about to sink its claws into Xander's neck the world went black again.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "AHH" Xander yelled waking up and looking around. Some people looked at Xander like he was crazy but soon went back to minding there own business. Xander's sudden yell attracted the attention of his friends and soon Buffy, Willow, and Dawn were making there way up the beach to him.
"You ok?" Buffy asked sitting down next to Xander. "Yeah I'm fine just a bad dream." Xander replied. "Well I think I've had enough fun you guys wanna head back." Willow asked and everyone nodded.
Soon the whole group was back at the hotel they were staying at when Giles came up to them. "We need to discuss what we're going to do now that the hellmouth is destroyed." Giles told the group as they sat down in the lounge. "I thought we where going to track down all the new slayers." Willow said to the British man. "Yes we are but we need to figure out how we will do that." The former librarian said to them.
A few very boring hours later, at least in Xander's opinion, the young man was walking down the street thinking about the dream he had earlier when suddenly someone ran into him and he fell to the ground. "Oh I'm sorry." A voice said an Xander looked up and saw a familiar face. "Paige we got to stop meeting like this, my butt can't take much more of it." Xander said as he got up.
"I agree." She said with a smile. "Are you ok?" She asked. "Yeah I fine." He said. "I'm starting to think your stalking me." Paige said to the one eyed man. "Nope no stalking just walking." Xander said as they began to walk down the street together. "Well I guess I can trust you." She said back with a smile. "Funny most people wouldn't." Xander said back. "Let me guess, the eye patch." Paige said to him. "Yeah for some reason it puts people off." Xander said in a joking way.
"If you don't mind my asking how did it happen?" The red head asked. "You wouldn't believe me." He said back. "Try me." She shot back. "Okay, an insane preacher poked it out with his thumb." Xander said gauging her reaction. "Ow that must of hurt." She said back. "Oh yeah." Xander said surprised that she believed him. "I got to get home but since we seem keep running into each other on accident maybe we should through fate for a loop and run into each other intentionally." Paige said turning to look at him. "You mean a date?" Xander asked. "Yeah." She said back with a hopeful look on her face.
Xander took a minute too think about it, He had really loved Anya and going out with someone else so soon after her death seemed like betraying her but Willow was right about the fact that Anya wouldn't want him to mope about her death.
"Okay." Xander said to the red head. "Great you know the club from last night." Paige asked him. "Yeah, P3 right?" Xander asked. "Yeah we could meet there around seven." She said. "Alright, see you at seven." Xander said then Paige got into her car and waved bye before driving away.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Later in his room at the hotel Xander was getting ready for his date when there was a knock on his door. "Who is it?" He called while buttoning up a dark green shirt. "It's Dawn can I come in?" Dawn called through the door. "Yeah c'mon in." Xander called back. Dawn then entered the room and saw Xander's outfit.
"Wow why are you all dressed up?" Dawn asked sitting down on the bed. "I'm not dressed up." Xander said as he finished with the shirt. "Xander you're wearing a normal solid color shirt instead of one of your god awful Hawaiian shirts." Dawn said with a grin. "I'll have you know that Hawaiian shirts are very stylish." Xander shot back with a grin. "Right, but seriously what's up?" Dawn asked. "I have a date tonight." Xander said as he sat on the bed next to her and tied his shoes.
"You have a date?" Dawn asked. "Yes and don't sound so surprised I'm not that unappealing to the eye am I?" Xander asked in a joking tone. "Well you said yourself the eye patch is a turn off for a lot of people." Dawn said teasingly. "Well not for this person." Xander shot back. "Okay so who is it?" Dawn asked. "A woman named Paige." Xander said as he headed for the door with Dawn right behind him.
"The woman from last night?" Dawn asked. "Yeah, how'd you know about that?" Xander asked the young woman. "Kennedy told me." Dawn said as they made there way down the stairs while Buffy made her way up to them. "Hey Xan what's up with the clothes?" Buffy asked. "He's got a date." Dawn said before Xander could respond.
"You have a date?" Buffy asked in disbelief. "Yeah don't sound so shocked." Xander grumbled. "Sorry Xan it's kinda shocking that your going out so soon after Anya's death." Buffy said to her one eyed friend. "Well Anya wouldn't want me too sit around and brood about her." Xander said to his blond friend. "I guess your right." Buffy said as they made it to the bottom of the stairs.
"So, be careful she might be a demon." Buffy said trying to lighten the mood. "Will you guys stop that already I'm not a demon magnet." Xander said, a little angry. "Right sure your not." Buffy said sarcastically. "I'm leaving before you say something mean to me again." Xander said in a joking manner as he exited the hotel and made his way to the club.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The club was even more crowded than the day before and Xander was worried about not being able to find Paige when he felt a tap on his shoulder. Xander turned and saw Paige standing behind. "Oh good I was afraid I wouldn't be able to find you." Xander said as he and Paige moved to a table. Paige was wearing a khaki mini skirt with small slit in the side, a baby blue tank top with a darker blue feather on it, a choker with blue beads with two leafs on the side and a feather in the middle.
"You look great." Xander said to her. "Thanks you look nice too." Paige said. "So you wanna dance?" Xander asked her. "I'd love too." The red head said and the couple then made their way out onto the dance floor. Just as they made it out onto the floor a slow song came on. Xander feeling a little nervous put his hands on her hips as Paige put her hands around his neck.
After about three songs the couple was thirsty so they made their way over to the bar. Xander noticed the bartender was the same woman from the night before. "Hey Piper can we get some drinks." Paige asked the bartender. "Sure hold on." Piper said back. "Uh you two know each other?" Xander asked. "Yeah Xander this is my sister Piper." Paige said gesturing to the bartender. "Nice to meet you." Piper said as she handed them their drinks. "Same here." Xander said back as he handed her some money.
"Lost the Hawaiian shirt I see." Piper said while accepting the money. "Yeah a solid color seemed better for a date." Xander said with a grin as he and Paige made there way back over to their table. "So your sister is a bartender here." Xander said as they sipped their drinks. "Actually she's the owner." Paige said. "Your sister is the owner?" Xander asked. "Yeah is that a problem?" Paige asked. "No just kinda unexpected." Xander said and soon both of them were sipping their drinks while talking.
On the other side of the club Buffy, Willow, and Kennedy where spying on the couple. "I still don't see why we have to spy on Xander's date." Kennedy complained to the other two women at the table. "Because most of the time the women Xander date turn out to be demons." Buffy said while keeping a close eye on the red hared woman with her best male friend.
"Apart from Anya how many demons could he have dated?" Kennedy asked. "Well there was the praying mantis demon sophomore year." Buffy said. "The soul sucking mummy junior year." Willow said. "And Cordelia." Buffy said. "Wow he has a pretty crappy love life huh." Kennedy said to her girlfriend. "Yup that's why when this girl turns out to be the demon she really is we'll be there to save him." Buffy said with an unusual look in her eyes.
"We don't know she is a demon." Kennedy told the blond slayer. "Of course she is why else would she go out with Xander." Buffy said in an annoyed tone. "Maybe she likes Xander." Kennedy said in 'stating the obvious' tone of voice. "I don't think so Kennedy, Xander is one of my best friends and I'd hate to say something bad about him but with the eye patch normal woman would want to date him." Willow said to her girlfriend. "Exactly so that's why we're here." Buffy said.
"You know Buffy it sounds like your jealous." Kennedy said to the other slayer. "What do you mean jealous?" Buffy asked in an angry tone. "What I mean is Xander is a grown man and can take care of himself, I think your only here because your jealous of that woman." Kennedy said. "That's ridiculous I'm only here to bail Xander out of the trouble he's gonna get himself into." Buffy said going back to her spying. "Right and I'm the queen of England." Kennedy mumbled under her breath.
