Divided

Xander watched the two nearly identical blondes with growing concern. They'd only been brought together thirty minutes ago. He remembered the initial anger and mistrust he'd had to his own double three years ago, but they ended up getting along in the end. The curly haired one was yelling right now.

"No I'm not!" She yelled.

"She is!" The punked out looking one yelled at him.

"Huh?" Xander jumped, realizing that maybe he should have been listening to what they had been fighting about.

"You're just like 'em, a murderin' bi-"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Let's not get started on the name calling contest, ladies." Xander sighed, leading the curly blonde to a chair across from the other girl's. "Willow should be here to fix this and you two can go back to being one instead of two."

"What?" They yelled in unison.

"You two have obviously been split in half - your good qualities and your bad qualities. So Willow's gonna see if she can fuse ya back together."

"We're not two halves of one whole, you pea brain!" Tess yelled. "We're two completely different people!"

"Yeah! I'm Ava, and she's Tess! I haven't seen her since she went off with Rath and Lonnie." Ava stiffened. "She's become more like them since then. A murder."

"So you weren't split by a magic spell?"

"NO!" They sighed.

"Oh." Xander paused for a beat. "So, you're two versions of yourself from this dimension and another dimension."

"No, we're clones."

"Oh."
