The Holy Blade
Chapter 8
Xander, Faith, and Robin were walking back to the hotel after spending an enjoyable evening with the three witches and talking about what tomorrow would bring.
"So, do we have any idea when Selabdule is coming?" Robin asked Xander.
"All that we know is that he's coming soon, that's why the sword called out to me," Xander replied, shrugging his shoulders.
"This is still alot to take in you know," Faith said.
"What do you mean?" Xander asked the dark haired slayer.
"Well out of all the people in the world this sword chose you too save the world," Faith replied.
"You make that sound like it's a bad thing," Xander said narrowing his eyes.
"I didn't mean it like that Xan, I just meant that isn't it a little unusual that it chose a normal human when a whole army of slayers was just awakened," Faith hastily said, trying not to offend the one eyed man in front of her.
"Actually I more or less asked Leo the same thing," Xander said back.
"What did he say?" Robin asked.
"He said that the sword probably chose me because even though I have no powers I still fight simply because I know it's the right thing to do," Xander replied as the trio walked into the hotel.
"So the reason it chose you is because of the whole white knight thing you got going on," Faith said back.
"I guess," Xander replied as he noticed a pissed off Buffy coming down the stairs with an equally pissed off Willow right behind her.
"You got a lot of nerve," Buffy said as she walked up to the former carpenter.
"Nice to see you too Buff," Xander replied with a grin.
"Shut up," Buffy said, tempted to hit him. "You had better say you're sorry to me right now or else," Buffy said in a menacing tone.
"Buffy, saying that your sorry means that you regret your actions, which I don't, so it wouldn't make much sense for me to apologize, would it," Xander said as he began to walk past her.
"I'm not done with you yet," Buffy said as she grabbed his arm and spun him around.
"But I'm done with you," Xander said back in a serious tone.
"You're not done until I say so," Buffy said, squeezing his arm tighter.
Xander's arm was starting to hurt as Buffy kept applying pressure, so before Buffy snapped his arm like a twig he took action. Xander's fist flew forward and hit the surprised slayer in the jaw causing her to fall to the floor.
"Don't ever touch me again," Xander said in a menacing tone then turned and walked away with Faith and Robin close behind.
Buffy took a moment to get over her shock before she got up and ran after Xander. Since Xander had a head start he was already up the stairs and outside the door of his room when Buffy caught up.
"You bastard!" Buffy screamed as she ran at him.
Xander simply opened the door to his room and ducked inside while sticking his leg out causing Buffy to trip on it and run into a nearby wall. Buffy quickly got up and ran into Xander's room intent on teaching him a lesson about respecting his superiors but instead she found the tip of a long sword touching her neck.
"Get out of my room," Xander said with no emotion in his voice.
"Make me," Buffy shot back.
"Buffy, I would hate to have to clean blood off of my new sword, so get out," Xander said as he increased the pressure on the sword causing it to draw a small trickle of blood from the slayers neck.
Before Buffy could reply Willow, Giles, and Dawn appeared in the doorway to Xander's room.
"Xander, what the hell are you doing!" Willow screamed at the one eyed man.
"Shut up Will," Xander replied.
"Xander what's happening?" Dawn asked starting to fear for her sister.
"Nothing that concerns any of you, now please leave I would like to get some sleep before I go meet Paige and her sisters tomorrow." Xander said as he lowered the sword from Buffy's throat.
"What do you mean meet Paige? I told you to break up with her because you're coming to Cleveland with us," Buffy said as she rubbed her neck.
"I already told you I am not going to Cleveland, nor am I breaking up with Paige, now get out!" Xander said with venom in his tone.
"I'm not leaving until you apologize for what you did to me and agree to come with us to Cleveland," Buffy said as she crossed her arms.
"Well then you'll be standing there awhile," Xander said as he pulled out the duster Leo had given him and slipped Daystar into the sheath inside.
"Xander where did you get that sword?" Giles asked the young man while walking into the room.
"I found it," Xander replied as he turned to face the watcher.
"Xander if I am not mistaken that sword is Daystar," Giles said.
"Your not mistaken," Xander replied.
"Xander, Daystar is one of the most powerful arcane items, how could you just find it?" Giles asked.
"I had help from some friends," He replied.
"What is Daystar?" Buffy asked.
"It is an ancient, powerful arcane item that is said to be the only weapon capable of harming a demon known as Selabdule," Giles explained.
"Then why does Xander have it?" Willow asked in confusion.
"Because the sword chose me to wield it, now all of you get out of my room!" Xander said, getting very pissed at the group.
"Why would something so powerful choose a normal person like you instead of a slayer, it is our job to protect people, not yours," Buffy said as she sat down in a chair.
"Maybe because I actually have some humanity left in me, unlike you," Xander said.
"How dare you say that!" Buffy screamed at him. "I've been risking my life to protect people for years, I should be the one to use that sword not you, now hand it over," Buffy said holding out her hand.
"Go to hell," Xander said as he put on the duster, walked past Buffy, and left the room.
"Xander, get back here!" Buffy screamed as she took off after him with Giles, Willow, and Dawn close behind.
Xander simply ignored her as he descended the stairs and passed Faith and Robin, who had stayed in the lobby through everything.
"Thanks for the help," Xander said sarcastically.
"Anytime," Faith said back as Xander walked past with Buffy and the others close behind.
As Xander left the hotel he saw Leo standing on the sidewalk outside.
"Leo what are you doing here?" Xander asked as he walked up to the elder.
"Well I say what happened and thought you might want a ride out of here," Leo said with a grin.
"Not even gonna ask how you know just get me out of here," Xander said as the elder put a hand on his shoulder and both of them disappeared in a pillar of lights shocking Buffy and the others as they ran out of the hotel after him.
"What the hell just happened, where did he go?" Buffy asked with anger in her voice.
Giles instead of responding simply turned and walked back into the hotel deep in thought while Buffy began to vent her rage on various things in the street
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As the lights died down Xander noticed that he was standing in the Halliwell's living room with a surprised Paige staring at them.
"Xander, what are you doing here?" Paige asked as she walked over to the one-eyed man and gave him a quick kiss.
"I thought that he could use an escape from his friends," Leo explained before Xander could open his mouth.
"So you brought him here," Paige said.
"Yeah, you don't mind do you?" Leo asked.
"I don't, but you will have to check with Piper and Phoebe too," Paige said as she and Xander sat down on the couch.
"Check with us about what?" Piper asked as she and Phoebe walked into the room.
"About Xander staying here tonight," Paige said.
"Why would he need to stay here tonight?" Phoebe asked as she sat down in a chair.
"I got into a big fight with my friends that resulted in me sucker punching Buffy as well as showing her, Willow, Giles, and Dawn Daystar," Xander explained.
"So, that's bad?" Phoebe asked.
"Have you ever seen a pissed off slayer, there not fun to be around," Xander responded.
"Well it's okay with me if you stay the night," Piper said as she and Leo walked into the kitchen.
"Me too, just don't go and make a bunch of noise tonight you two," Phoebe said with a coy smile as she stood up and left the room.
"What did she mean?" Xander asked, turning to face Paige, who was wearing a small grin on her face.
"I'll tell you when we go to bed," Paige said as she pulled him into a kiss that soon turned into a full-blown make out session.
End Chapter 8 That was chapters 8 please R+R. Also I know that I am making Buffy out to be a total bitch but I have a lot of pent rage so I am having Xander take it out on Buffy for me, I apologize if I offended any of you.
