Supernatural Human Powers Yeah!
Chapter 2 : It's the ears!
"Faith. Faith! Let me in it's Xander and it's important!" Xander shouted through the door he was beating on. Little did he know that the others had sent Spike after to him and that he was being watched from the shadows. Usually Xander would hear someone if they were following him, but he was in such a fuss that he didn't notice.
"God Damnit Xander I was getting ready, which your not. They would kick your ass if you showed up like that." She just had on her shiny leather pants and bra, Xander had interrupted her putting on clothes. She let Xander come in the apartment. She looked around and spotted Spike.
"I know you're just going to spy on us and will probably find out anyways. Might as well come with." She told Spike. Spike shrugged and followed them in. It wasn't like he was loyal to the Slayer. He'd probably have more fun with the Whelp and Faith anyways.
"What's he doing here! I'm having a big crises and you let Deadboy Jr. join in! Life is so fuckin' unfair! Kill me now!" Xander wailed dramatically. Faith burst out laughing at his mocking.
"You know I'd kill you if I could, but the whole Immortal Demon Magnet thing you've got going on stops me." Faith said.
"What do you mean Immortal?" Spike asked. The whelp was human… What? Humans kicked the bucket didn't they?
"I'm about to be Slayer meat as soon a Wills and Tara finish that spell! Can you imagine if they found out. It would be like that time I got held hostage all over again!" Xander said as he began rummaging around in Faith's two room flat for the clothes he stashed at her house. Faith had finally put on a shirt and Spike just sat watching the two.
"So can't you just do some magic and make 'em forget about it or something?" Faith asked as she threw Xander the jeans he was searching for. Xander sighed and snatched them before they smacked him in the face.
"You know that I'd have to drop my glamorie if I did that. That go over real well! I fucking have pointy ears and slanted eyes! Sure I'm human." Xander said. Spike just stared as Xander stripped in front of him oblivious to the show he was putting on.
"Well it would be better than being the doughnut boy." Faith said. They both stopped mid-way through what they were doing as they stared at the door. The knocking had become loud and the door was beginning to splinter. Uh-oh Slayer was here.
"So much for human. I do this and neither of you laugh at my pointy ears got it!" Xander said and opened the door. Buffy looked a little murderous and the others were a little star struck.
"Why didn't you tell us? You could have been helping!' Buffy shouted. Xander opened his mouth but decided not to even try and defend himself. He quickly dropped his glamour and began the incantation for the forgetful curse. It translated into something like 'You never saw it, it wasn't there. You never heard it, it has no sound. Forget me not, only what I am.'
Buffy and the others looked confused as to why they were outside Faith's apartment. They decided to forget the moment of temporary insanity and left to go patrolling. On the inside things were a little different.
"What? Did I screw things up again?" Xander asked. He then noticed that his voice sounded different…. Oh Yeah! He had taken off his human glamorie.
"You look wow. Didn't know you had it in you Xan." Faith smiled before winking at him a glancing at Spike. She went back to getting ready. Sure Xander was hot and exotic looking, but she didn't ogle him. He was more like a brother. Plus he was about as straight as Andrew. Spike on the other hand was practically drooling.
Xander was wearing a pair of black jeans that were just right and hung dangerously low on his hips now. When he was human his waist had been normal sized, but as a Drow his waist was slim as it was with all Drow. He wasn't wearing a shirt yet and he didn't have an ounce of fat on his body. His face though was what really got to Spike. Xander was ethereal looking. His hair hanging down to his chin in the front and got a little shorter in the back and was raven black with hints of blue and purple. His ears stuck out through his hair and were most definitely pointed. His eyes had turned from a brown to an icy blue almost gray color and were slightly slanted. His lips were full and almost feminine. Xander was almost six foot now. Xander felt of his ears before screeching and running towards the bathroom mirror. Spike caught sight of the tattoo on his back and was about to question him about it before he threw on a shirt as he realized he was half naked.
"Faith! My ears are pointy!" Xander said as he threw himself on the couch. Unfortunately he'd forgotten Spike was sitting there and wound up in said persons lap.
"You know I always thought you two would get the connection sooner or later." Faith said as she walked over from the other side of the room and seated herself on the small bed across from the couch.
"Oh Hell! This just makes my day! What could possibly make this day any worse? I can't go out in public now and I just jumped in Dead Boy Jr.'s lap!" Faith chuckled as Xander didn't even bother to move out of Spike's lap. Of course Spike wasn't about to protest.
"I suppose Dead Boy Sr. could show up." Angel said as he walked in. He was meeting up with Xander and Faith tonight to go drinking. As soon as he spotted Xander he stopped and stared. Sure he knew the boys secret. He had been around Drows before and had immediately recognized the boys scent after being around him for a few days, but he had never seen the boy in Drow form.
"Oh God! It's the ears isn't it!" Xander exclaimed as he hid his ears with his hands. And drew his knees up. He was sitting closely beside Spike instead of laying on top of him now.
"No it's not the ears X-Man, so stop whining." Faith told him as she rolled her eyes. The boy could be such a drama queen sometimes. He must have learned it from spending so much time with Cordelia.
"What the hell are you doin' here Peaches?" Spike asked his sire.
"I go out with Xander and Faith every so often. Why are you here?" Angel asked as he plopped himself down on the floor at Faith's feet. Spike had never seen his sire so relaxed and laid back before. Usually the vampire was all about business and brooding.
"Well Faith and Xander both stripped for me and I didn't have to pay, so that's reason enough to be here." Spike said. Xander flushed and Faith just laughed.
"So did you like the show?" Faith asked cheekily.
"Yeah. Till Dark ,Tall, and Forehead over there showed up." Spike commented. Xander looked ready to run and hide while Faith just laughed.
"God I hate that name. I'd rather you started calling me Deadboy than Tall Dark and Forehead. It makes it seem like your checking me out!" Angel huffed at Spike. They actually did get along contrary to what they led people to believe. You just don't sire someone and then turn on them. Yeah they annoyed the hell out of each other, but they were family… sort of.
"Hey! No one else gets to use my nicknames! I put good time and thought into those!" Xander complained.
"You must think about Spike a lot cause you sure have a lot of names for him." Faith commented. Xander rolled his eyes.
"Well duh! He lives in the same hell pit I live in. I have to see fangless everyday and most of every night. Captain Cardboard is always around eating my food and drinking the blood supply in my fridge." Xander explained to Faith.
"You have a blood supply?" Angel questioned.
"Yeah. Everyone always sticks the semi-not evil vampires in my basement." Xander told them.
"To scar them shitless. Have you ever seem that basement? Have you ever had to live with Xander? It's scarier than tea time with Drusilla." Spike comment. Angel shuddered.
"Oh come on. It's not that bad." Xander told them.
"Bloody Hell Zeppo! Not that bad? You fucking tied me to a chair and made me wear Hawaiian print shirts. You have an arsenal underneath the kitchen, and there's no telling what else you keep hidden down there." Xander shrugged not getting what was so bad about that.
"You tied him to a chair?" Faith asked looking at Xander incredulously. Sure, she knew Xander did weird stuff and sometimes stupid stuff and he never made sense, but this was hilarious.
"Yeah. One of those spiny chair that go round and round. Every time I walked by I made him spin around. I always wondered if Vampires could get woozy." Xander told her. Spike growled at the memories while the other two occupants of the room roared in laughter. Once everyone had gotten over laughing and making fun of each other they decided to go do something.
"We were going dancing. Might as well go do that." Angel pointed out, " I guess Spike can tag along with us."
"That's five by five." Faith said as she grabbed her jacket and her and Xander ran to the car like happy little children. It was sometimes hard to believe that those two had seen more death and had killed more than hardly anyone could admit to.
The club they went to was 'Black Stars'. The club played dance music mostly, which was any kind of music, usually rock, mixed with a techno background for the dance beat. Xander and Faith were in the midst of all the body's dancing together rather seductively. Angel and Spike sat with their drinks and watched the two. Xander and Faith had somehow hidden his ears with his hair and had downplayed the slant of his eyes with eyeliner.
"Why are we watching and not joining in?" Angel suddenly asked. Spike just glanced over at his sire. He had never known Angel to be someone that loose or that danced.
"I didn't know you could dance." Spike commented.
"Yeah. Lets go. I have a bad little slayer waiting." Angel smirked as he left a flabbergasted Spike and went to the dance floor. Spike watched as Angel cut in and Xander stepped back from Faith and Angel stepped in. He watched them dance for a minute before turning back to look at Xander, who wasn't there anymore.
"Hey." The person said as they sat down beside him. Spike turned and almost jumped out of his seat when he noticed Xander was now setting beside him when he'd been on the dance floor a moment ago.
"How?" Spike asked. Xander grinned.
"I'm just me." Xander said. The boy hadn't even broke a sweat out on the dance floor and he had been out there for nearly thirty minutes. Spike just nodded. He sat back and watched the dancers for a while. Xander started getting jittery. Even as a Drow, the Zeppo couldn't sit still for five minutes.
"Come dance with me." Xander said as he grabbed Spike's hand and dragged him down to the dance floor. Spike didn't even have time to reply. Xander slipped through the crowd easily, not running into anyone. It was like people instinctively moved out of his way.
Xander finally stopped . They were in the crowd but were near one of the support beams of the building instead of the center. The music was playing a moderate beat. Xander turned to Spike with a devilish grin and wrapped on arm around Spike's neck and pulled them flush together. He then started to move slowly and Spike moved with him placing one arm on Xander's waist and the other on the beam behind him. Spike smirked at Xander before picking up the beat of the music and they were soon lost to the music.
Hours later, about thirty minutes before the sun was to rise they all clambered back into Angel's car. Angel dropped Xander and Spike off at Xander's house before he and Faith headed towards Faith's little flat.
"How much you want to bet they spent the whole night together?" Angel asked as they walked through the door.
"I'm not stupid enough to loose my money." Faith replied back as she began to strip off her clothes.
"Spike was right. You people give free strip shows." Angel smiled as he watched Faith change. She gave him the go to hell look before heading towards the shower. Angel shrugged to himself and sat there for a moment.
"Damn your stupid." He said to himself before following her.
AN : I know that the characters are a little OC and that some of the original show references are skewered, but I have never seen a whole season of Buffy all the way through. I watch reruns and there very random. Thanks for the comment about my grammar not sucking horribly. I took an English class last semester and failed 7 of 10 essays because of grammar. I do hope that by now I'm beginning to get at least a little better.
