Here is the next chapter of Slayerette's Slide, hope you like, please RR.

Chapter 4 Forest

12:00 PM

"Faster, those things are gaining on us!" Quinn yelled at the top of his lungs as the group of sliders ran through a forest.

"Up the tree's, they're too small to climb!" Maggie shouted as she grabbed a low branch and pulled herself up before offering an arm to the still injured Xander.

Soon the entire group was up in the trees looking down at the kill machines beneath them.

"How long till the slide Q-ball?" Remy asked the young scientist.

"Two hours, get comfortable," Quinn responded.

"How are you holding up Xan?" Wade asked the brunette a few branches below her.

"Been better," Xander replied, his arm clutching his chest where Rickman had sliced him. "You know, of all the possible deaths I envisioned for myself, being eaten by killer bunnies was not one of them," Xander continued as he looked down at the killer fluff balls beneath him.

"Yeah, who the hell would genetically engineer killer rabbits anyway?" Maggie asked.

Before anyone could respond Xander reached into his coat and pulled out a newspaper he had picked up before the killer rabbit attack. Quickly scanning the articles, Xander was soon able to find the answer to Maggie's question.

"According to this, it was a woman named Anya Jenkins for the purpose of attacking her husband who cheated on her, and was apparently my alternate on this world," Xander answered before turning the page to the comics section.

"Wow," was all Maggie had to say.

"But still, why killer rabbits?" Quinn asked.

"Damned if I know," Xander replied as he adjusted him self to a more comfortable position.

Same Forest

1:57 PM

"Alright people time's almost up," Quinn called out as he watched the numbers on the timer tick down.

"Good, I think those furballs are up to something," Remy responded as he looked down at the rabbits.

"What do you mean?" Wade asked.

"Look for yourself," Remy answered.

Looking down Wade saw that the small killers were beginning to climb on top of each other forming some sort of pyramid.

"Oh," Wade responded as she watched more rabbits climb.

"Smart little buggers aren't they," Xander remarked.

"Time to go," Quinn said, cutting off any further comments as he opened the vortex.

The group of Sliders had entered the tunnel just as the rabbit pyramid reached the higher branches; luckily, the portal closed before any of them could get in.

Forest

2:00 PM

Soon the group had all come out of the portal and had landed in a rather large pile, all except Xander.

"Where's Xander?" Wade asked as she looked around.

"Did he miss the Slide?" Remy asked, worry evident in his voice.

"No I didn't," Xander's voice called out from behind them.

Turning the group saw Xander, soaking wet, sitting in a pond a few feet behind them with a duck sitting on his head.

"Nice hat Xan," Maggie commented, trying to hold in her laughter.

"Ha, ha, ha," Xander responded as he shooed the duck away and climbed out of the pond. "See any signs of killer rabbits?" he asked looking around.

"Not on this world," Wade responded with a grin.

"Alright, we have three hours here, let's say he find out where we are," Quinn said as he put the timer in his pocket and started walking towards a nearby clearing.

When the group reached the clearing they say that there was a large stone wall around the area with a large gate standing open. Beyond the gate they could see a street and several people walking around.

"Guess we're in a park of some sort," Remy commented as they began to make there way across the field.

"Yeah, well I say that we should find a hotel or something, I'm starting to get cold," Xander said in a bitter tone.

"Hey this place looks familiar," Wade said as they exited the park.

"Well Wade, there's a big chance we've been here on a different world," Quinn responded as he looked around.

"Wait, I know this place," Xander said as he looked up and down the street.

"You do?" Maggie asked.

"Yeah, this is Sunnydale," Xander replied in shock.

Motel Room

2:30 PM

"I can't believe that we're in Sunnydale," Xander said as he paced around the room after changing out of his wet clothes.

"Chill out Xan, your making me dizzy," Maggie commented as she watched the young man pace.

"Do you think that there could be a hellmouth here?" Wade asked the young man.

"Knowing our luck, I'd say yes," Xander replied as he sat on one of the beds.

"So, what do we do?" Remy asked.

"We have three hours here, I suggest we lay low until the slide," Quinn from his seat across the room.

"I don't think so Q-ball," Xander said, using Remy's nickname for the scientist. "I want to see if I'm home," he continued while grabbing his coat and heading for the door.

"Xander that's probably not a good idea..." Quinn tried to explain but the young man was already out the door.

"I'll go after him," Wade said as she followed Xander out of the door.

Wade stepped outside and quickly looked around, spotting Xander at the edge of the parking lot she quickly ran to catch up.

"This isn't a good idea Xan," Wade said as she caught up to the brunette.

"I don't care, I need to find out if I'm home," Xander replied.

"But I though you said that you weren't too anxious to go back," the red head pressed.

"If this is my world I have no intention of staying but I would like too see how my friends are doing," Xander replied.

"The friends that threatened to kill you?" Wade asked.

Xander stopped in his tracks and turned to face the woman behind him. "It's true that they were mad at me when I left, but if this is my world then maybe after all this time they may not be pissed at me anymore," Xander explained.

"But,"

"No buts, all I want to do is go to the school and see if this is my world, then we'll come right back," Xander told her.

"Promise?"

"Promise,"

"Then lets get going," Wade said with a small smile

Sunnydale High Library

2:45 PM

It didn't take long for the two to reach the high school but instead of using the front doors, they sneaked into the library through the stacks in order to avoid drawing attention. It wasn't long before the duo was crouched in the shadows of the library looking out at the main area.

"There's Buffy and Willow, but no sign of anyone else," Xander whispered to Wade as looked around the room.

"We should get back before they spot us," the red head whispered back.

"Please, just give me five minutes?" Xander asked his companion, putting on his best puppy dog face.

"Fine," Wade whispered back in defeat.

Before Xander could respond, the doors of the library opened and Xander walked in.

"Well, I guess this isn't my world," Xander said with sadness in his voice.

"Let's go," Wade said as she stood up and crept toward the door they came in with Xander following close behind.

"I'm sorry that this isn't your world," Wade said to the young man as they walked back towards the motel.

"It's alright," Xander replied.

"Will you be okay?" she asked the young man that she had developed feelings for.

"Yeah, bright side, I can keep sliding with you guys," Xander responded, with a smile on his face.

"Let's just hope that we don't end up on any more killer bunny worlds," Wade responded, causing Xander to start laughing, soon, she joined in.

"Crap," Xander exclaimed his laughter disappearing.

"What's wrong?" Wade asked in a worried tone.

"Her," Xander replied while pointing to a brunette girl across the street.

"Who is that?" Wade asked.

"Faith, she can't see me," Xander answered as he ducked into a nearby donut shop, Wade close behind.

As it turns out, Faith did see Xander when he ducked into the shop, but assumed that he was on a donut run for the Scooby meeting she was heading for and thought nothing of it as she continued for the school.

"Looks like she's gone Xan," Wade said as she looked out the window of the shop.

"Good, but while we're in here, lets say that we get some food," Xander replied as he walked up to the counter.

"Sounds good to me," Wade said, joining him at the counter.

Motel Room

3:00 PM

"I hope Xander doesn't do anything stupid," Quinn commented as he walked around the room.

"Xan's a smart guy, I'm sure that he didn't do anything stupid," Maggie responded, not looking up from the TV.

It was at that moment that Xander and Wade walked into the room, each carrying a box of donuts in their arms.

"We have returned, and we come with sugar," Xander said as they put the boxes down on a nearby table and opened them.

"So, did you find out if this is your world?" Remy asked as he grabbed one of the donuts out of a box.

"It's not, unless if I have a twin brother that my parents haven't told me about," Xander replied as he sat down on one of the beds.

"Sorry man," Quinn said.

"Don't worry about it, and sorry about not listening to you earlier," Xander replied as he grabbed the remote out of Maggie's hand and started flipping channels.

"Hey!" Maggie said as she tried too get the remote back from the young man next to her.

"Don't worry about it," Quinn responded as he too grabbed a donut and sat down to watch Xander and Maggie wrestle over the remote.

Sunnydale High Library

Same time

"So you're saying that there is a group of demons here that lay there eggs inside people?" Xander asked the watcher sitting a few feet away from him.

"Exactly," Giles responded as he closed the book he had been paging through.

"May I go on record as saying eww," Willow said from her place at the table.

It was at that moment that Faith walked into the library, and stop cold as she saw Xander sitting at the table.

"How the hell did you get here so fast?" Faith asked the young man at the table.

"What are you talking about?" Xander asked in confusion.

"I saw you walk into the donut shop like fifteen minutes ago," Faith responded in confusion.

"Faith, Xander hasn't left the library since he got here a half hour ago," Buffy told her sister slayer.

"You must have seen someone who just looks like him," Willow said.

"No way, it was Xander, I'd bet my life on it," Faith responded with resolve in her voice.

"Looks like we have another problem now," Xander sighed.

Motel Room

3:30 PM

"I think I'm gonna get some air, anyone want to join me?" Remy asked as he stood up and grabbed his coat.

"I'm in," Quinn said.

"Me too," Maggie answered.

"Wade, Xan, how bout you?" Remy asked.

"I think it would be safer if I stayed in, don't want to run into a double of one of my friends," Xander said, looking up from the magazine he was reading.

"I'll stay too, I'm kinda tired," Wade said as she continued flipping channels.

"Alright, we'll be back soon," Quinn said as they left the room.

After the three other sliders had left the room, Wade looked up at Xander and remembered a conversation that she had with Maggie on the last world, before the killer rabbit attack.

Flashback

"So when are you gonna tell Xander that you like him?" Maggie asked her red haired friend as they walked down the street.

"I don't know," Wade responded.

"Well, you should tell him soon, you never know when something may happen to one of us," Maggie responded.

"But what if I tell him and he doesn't like me as more then a friend and then things get awkward between us," Wade said with a little fear in her voice.

"Wade, you're starting to sound like some high school girl with a crush," Maggie told her panicking red haired friend.

"You're right, I gotta stay calm, if he doesn't like me, then that's his loss," Wade said, confidence returning to her voice.

"That's the spirit," Maggie responded.

End Flashback

"Xander can we talk?" Wade asked the young man as she flipped off the television and turned to face him.

"Sure," Xander replied, putting down his magazine. "What's up?" he asked the red head.

'Here goes nothing,' she thought silently. "Xander, I like you, a lot," the red head told him.

"Well, we are friends Wade, I kinda figured that you liked me, or at the very least tolerated my presence," Xander replied with a grin.

"No, that's not what I mean, what I am trying to say is..." Wade started to say but stopped mid sentence. "Ahh to hell with it," Wade said as she stood up and walked over to Xander.

Before the young man could figure out what the red head meant, Wade grabbed his head and brought her lips down on his in a short but intense kiss.

"Do you get what I'm saying now?" Wade asked, not letting go of his head.

"Yeah," Xander responded in a slight daze.

"And?"

Instead of saying anything, Xander grabbed Wade's head and pulled her in for another kiss, though this one lasted longer and was a more romantic one. The two stayed like that until the need for air made them pull apart.

"Wow," Wade said as she took a deep breath.

"Ditto," Xander responded. "So, does this mean that we're dating now?" Xander asked the woman in front of him.

Wade's response was a small smile as she pulled him in for another kiss.

Motel Room

3:45 PM

After all the kissing was done between the new couple, Xander and Wade were lying on one of the beds watching a horror movie on the television. Both taking comfort in being in each other's arms, and by Xander's odd comments about how stupid the characters in the movie were, and how real monsters didn't look like that.

The movie was just coming to an end when an exhausted and injured Rembrandt came bursting through the doors of the room.

"Oh my god, Remy what happened?" Xander asked as he and Wade quickly got off the bed and helped their friend into a chair.

"I'm not sure, one minute we were walking down the road, and the next we were surrounded by those demons you're always talking about," the exhausted man responded.

"Where's Quinn and Maggie?" Wade asked, concern in her voice.

"I though that they were right behind me," Rembrandt responded.

"This is bad," Xander said as he checked his watch. "We slide in a little over an hour, we have to work fast, Remy, you gonna be ok?"

"Yeah, just gotta catch my breath,"

"Do you have a plan?" Wade asked.

"A bad one, unfortunately it's the only one I can think of," Xander responded.

"I have a feeling I'm not gonna like this," Wade thought out loud as the trio headed out the door.

Sunnydale High

4:00 PM

"I don't like this," Wade told the young man in front of her as they headed down the halls of Sunnydale High towards the library.

"You said that already," Xander responded.

"It bares repeating," Wade shot back.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing," Xander reassured her.

"Funny how that doesn't make me feel any better," Wade commented as they reached the doors of the library.

"Here goes nothing," Xander to his friends as he opened the doors and walked in.

Upon entering the room, Xander was met with silence as the Scooby's of this dimension looked at him in shock.

"I told you I saw another Xander!" Faith said breaking the silence.

"Demon!" Buffy yelled as she ran for the other Xander.

"I'm not a demon!" Xander yelled as he dived out of the way to avoid Buffy's attack.

"Then what are you?" Buffy asked sarcastically as she moved towards him again.

"I'm Xander Harris," the young man responded.

"You expect me to believe that?" the blond asked as she sent a kick at him that he narrowly avoided.

Xander was about to respond when a sharp pain in his back sent him flying across the room, landing at Wade's feet. Looking up, the young man saw that it was a grinning Faith that had kicked him in the back.

"Listen to me!" Xander yelled as Wade and Remy helped him up.

"Not a chance demon," Buffy shot back as the two slayers began to move toward him.

Before the pissed off slayers could get to close Xander's hand moved to a chain around his neck. With a quick flick of his wrist a dome of light surrounded him and his two friends.

"Will you listen to me now?" Xander asked after the slayers realized they couldn't get through the light barrier.

"Talk," Buffy responded, angry that she couldn't kill the demon impersonating her friend.

"I am Xander Harris, but not from this dimension, I'm from a parallel earth," Xander explained to the group.

"You expect us to believe that?" Willow asked, finally getting over the shock of seeing a second Xander.

"Ask me something that only Xander Harris would know," the young man responded in a calm voice. "That only you would know," he continued, turning to face his alternate on that world.

The other Xander then stood up and slowly made his way over to the dome of light, leaning in close and speaking in a soft voice so that only the other Xander could hear.

"What did we tell Buffy what Willow's message was?" he asked his double.

"Kick his ass," he responded in a low voice.

"He's telling the truth," the Xander from that dimension said as he pulled back.

"You're sure?" Buffy asked her friend.

"Positive," he responded.

"Alright," Buffy said as she and Faith dropped out of combat stances.

"Good, now if no one else is gonna try and kill me, we can get down to the reason as to why I'm here," the other said as he lowered the shield around him.

He and the other two sliders spent the next ten minutes telling the group what had how they got there and what had happened too their other friends.

"So you came to us because you need a slayers help to rescue your friends?" Giles asked as he cleaned his glasses.

"You got it G-man," Xander responded.

"Don't call me that," Giles responded, quickly bringing a grin to both of the Xanders faces.

"So will you help us?" Wade asked.

"Yes," Buffy responded.

"Do you know what the demons look like?" Giles asked.

"Yeah, they were about eight feet tall, four horns on their head, and were covered in green and blue fur," Remy explained to the group.

"Kuroth demons," Giles responded as he opened up a book in front of him. "They need human hosts to lay their eggs in, the body heat of the humans help to keep the eggs warm," Giles explained as he found the page in the book he was looking for.

"What happens when the egg's hatch?" Wade asked, fear in her voice.

"Do they have the movie Alien on your world?" Giles asked.

"Oh," Wade responded, suddenly very pale.

"Listen, we have less than an hour before we slide, we have to get to out friends now," Remy said to the group.

"Don't worry, we know where the nest is," Giles said as he moved over to the book cage and started pulling out weapons.

Soon the group was armed and on their way to the nest of Kuroth demons, hoping that they would get their in time. Fifteen minutes later they were standing outside of an abandoned warehouse.

"Alright, Faith and I go in first and make with the demon killing, the people from another dimension get to the hostages and get them free, everybody else, cover fire, everybody got that?" Buffy asked the group and was met with a chorus of yes's. "Good, lets go."

The two slayers then walked up to the door and kicked it open before rushing in and killing the nearest two demons before they could react. The three sliders then moved in quickly and soon spotted Quinn and Maggie tied to a wall on the other side of the room.

They then started to run for the wall as fast as they could while the rest of the Scooby gang began to open fire on the demons with their crossbows. The three dimensional travelers were able to make it to their friends with little difficulty, seeing as the demons were more concerned with the humans that were attacking them.

"You guys okay?" Xander asked as he began to tug at the knots holding them.

"Been better," Quinn answered as Xander got one of his arms free.

"Glad to see you though," Maggie chimed in as Wade and Remy began to untie her.

"How long till the slide?" Remy asked as he undid the last knot holding Maggie.

"Twenty minutes," Quinn responded as after checking the timer, thankful that the demons didn't take it.

"Shouldn't we give them a hand?" Maggie asked as she pointed to the battle.

"It looks like they have it under control," Xander commented as he say Faith and Buffy move into corner the last demon.

Soon all the demons were dead and the group was back at the library.

"This is just creepy," Buffy commented to Faith as she saw the two Xanders talking.

"Tell me about it," Faith responded as the Xanders started laughing over some joke one of them said.

Meanwhile across the room, Xander the slider changed the topic on conversation that they were on.

"Okay, Xan I've got something important to tell you before I go," he said to his counterpart.

"What?" Xander asked.

"On my world, Buffy found out about the lie and got majorly pissed with me, that's one of the reasons I started to slide, now I'm not saying that your Buffy will find out, but if she ever does, prepare for the worst," Xander explained, a grim expression on his face.

"Right," Xander responded.

"One minute to go," Quinn called out as he held up the timer.

"So, guess this is goodbye," the Xander from that dimension said to the other.

"Yup," he responded.

"Time to go!" Quinn yelled as he activated the timer.

One by one the group of sliders ran and jumped into the tunnel until only Xander was left. Turning, he waved goodbye before turning and stepping into the vortex that blinked out of existence behind him.

"That was really cool," Xander commented once the shock wore off.
