Chapter Seven
10 July 99
"Mister Wayne? Talk about robbing the cradle."
Bruce just smirked and said "watch it, remember what I said in the warehouse back in Bludhaven."
Xander paled again but really didn't feel threatened. "My mom?"
"She's fine she called me after Charles called and confirmed his story, she is going back to school in Metropolis to specialize in children's medicine. After she gets out of rehab. She's staying with her cousin in Smallville."
"My mom is going to be a doctor?"
"Yes she only needed a few more credits to go, she was working as a nurse to get thru school, then Tony happened."
"I didn't know mom had any living relatives, who is her Cousin?"
"Martha Kent."
"Good lord, now I'm sounding like G-man. Not only am I your son but I'm related by adoption to Clark! Boy has this been a weird summer."
"It gets weirder Xander. I met your mom because of Lionel Luthor's attempt to kill me and take over Wayne Industries. I was suffering amnesia when I met your mom and we know what happened there and I didn't know about you until to day."
"But how does it get weirder Mr Wayne?"
"Call me Bruce and you have met Kitty Pride here haven't you?"
"Yes"
"She's your great grand niece."
"What."
"What sort of got buried in my Bio is the fact that I was married before I became Batman. When my Parents died I withdrew from the world and it was the daughter of my cook, which got me to living again, Sara Jones. After I dropped out of college and wandered the world, that's when I first met Ra's al Ghul and was trained by him and was planning to follow in his foot steps and revenge my parents. But when I came home and met Sara again I forgot all about that and Married her. We had a daughter Mary. In 1939 Ra's al Ghul found out about my Family and to bring me back into the fold he killed them or so everybody thought."
"What happened?"
"Sara and Mary were going to fly from Berlin to London to get out of Germany, They never showed up and we were told that the cab they were in had been blown up."
"How do you know Kitty is your grand daughter?"
"The same way I found out about you. Two years ago Kitty's mutant ability kicked in and she came here and got a gene scam. When I found out about her I did a background check and found out that Mary had survived the bomb and at the end of the war she had been adopted by a Private Samual Stineman and she married Harry Rosenberg and had two children a son named Ira and a Daughter Theresa, who married Carman Pryde and had Katherine or Kitty as she prefers."
"I'm Willow's and Kitty's Uncle? Does Kitty and Willow know about each other?"
"Not that I know about Ira and Theresa haven't talked to each other for almost twenty years."
"O we so need a family reunion."
That's when Charles brought in Kitty and they had a small family reunion there, getting to know each other. Xander gave Kitty, Willows e-mail address but asked her to not tell her yet about Him and Bruce, he wanted to surprise her latter. During this time Bruce and Charles up dated each other on what they had found out about the Star situation, that when Bruce told them about the Mid Summer Ball being held in New York City on the 21th. Officially it is a party for the rich and famous to mingle and donate money to their favorite charities; unofficially it is a membership drive for the Hellfire clubs' inner circle to look for new members, and new blood. And on the record the Wayne family has been members of the Hellfire club since the early 1800's. The party is to be held in the Club mansion, in Manhatten.
For the next ten days Xander, Rachael, Kitty and Bruce got to know each other. Xander also got better at being up during the day, he still felt sluggish and cranky from lack of sleep, but he needed to be up when he and Bruce went to officially and quietly, had his name changed to Alexander L. Wayne. Met the Bat family, his new "brothers" Richard Greyson (Nightwing) and Timothy Drake (Robin) and his "sisters" Helena Janice Bertinelli (the Huntress), Barbara Gordon (formerly Batgirl now know as Oracle) and Cassandra Cain (Batgirl). Of course they were told that he was being called The Shadow by Lois Lane. As well as getting fitted for a Tux for the party, Xander put his foot down when they started talking about a battle suit, he liked his t-shirt, levis, boots and duster just fine and like Superman didn't have to worry about his face in the papers, but he and Bruce never told them about his condition they wanted that to be a surprise, and Rachael with the help of Helena, Barbara, Cassandra and Kitty, a gown for the party as well. (For those that were keeping track, Rachael was able to get her paper in on time. Kitty was able to save the info from Rachael's hard drive.) Bruce was going to officially announce to the world that Xander was his son at the party, as well as snoop for info on Star. O during this time the students had started calling Xander uncle Xan, it is believed to have been started by Logan after Xander had beat him in a sparing match.
Xander had told Buffy about what had happened and asked her to get a picture of Willow and Giles faces when they found out. He had told her about the fact that he was Willow's uncle and her great grandfather was Bruce Wayne, but that surprise was for latter. She told him about how Willow had apologized for her actions the other night and was going on about her cousin that she never knew she had and she wanted to thank Xander for getting them together and how they knew each other from there hacking days, she also told of the blow up between Willow and her dad over it.
The night finally came and if it wasn't for Rachael being there for him, he would have ran away by now. He started to feel a little better when he saw that Lois and Clark were going to be there as well. As they moved thru the crowd Bruce introduced him as his son Alexander. Xander met J. Jonah Jamison and his wife and a photographer from his paper, Peter Parker, who took his picture, latter on in the night he got to talking to Peter and found that they were a lot alike, Rachael and Mary Jane hit it off as well. He met Tony Stark, Lex Luthor and David Xanatos and his wife, Fox. Xander got a good vibe off Stark, Luthor just felt slimy and Xanatos gave him mixed feelings, as did Jamison, Fisk was like Luthor. Xander had moved to a corner to get away from the people who thought they could use him to get some face time with Bruce; he had stepped into the shadow void just to get a breather, when for the first time his mutant ability kicked in on its own. He quickly snagged Wayne when no one was looking and followed one of the waiters that his sixth sense said, had something to do with Star. All of the future probabilities said that if they didn't save Star tonight they would never see her again. He filled in Bruce what he was feeling.
While Xander was following the waiter from the shadows he dropped Wayne off at his cave to change them snagged Clark so he could change as well and let Rachael and Lois what was going on.
During the Party:
Buffy got a good picture of Giles' and Willow's faces, when they saw on the news story of Bruce Wayne II's announcement of finding his son and who it was.
A female voice in a P.I. office in L.A. saying in a shriek "THE DWEEB, NO WAY!" and the two guys in the office, ducking for cover.
Both Luthor and Fisk were pissed at the announcement, with Wayne having a son; it destroyed their plans of a hostile takeover of Wayne Enterprises.
Jamison, Xanatos and Stark, all had a great time just watching the various "Shark's", "Jackel's" and "Vultures'" as their various plans for Wayne fell apart, and the reporters that had some brains all sniffing out the stories and enjoying themselves as well, over the antics of the rich and famous.
Then there was Graydon Creed, He knew who the kid was, he was the one, the papers called the Shadow. He knew that for his plans for all of the mutant freaks to be killed or put in camps, to work, they all had to be detected. Put his main problem was the ones in power or had power like Worthington, Shaw, Frost, Xavier, and according to the reports he had seen Luthor (according to the show, Smallville, after the meteor shower Lex never got sick again), Richards, Von Doom, most of the Hellfire inner circle. Basically most of the rich and powerful were ether a freak or had a family member as a freak, like Wayne who according to all of his contacts said was a normal human, but his kid was a mutant, and not just any mutant but the one that nearly shut him down. Creed dialed up his old College girl friend, they had stayed in touch over the years and she had just got a job with the NID, a project called the Initiative.
"Hi Maggie, its Graydon … yea I'm fine, look your in Sunnydale right?... could do something for me?... No just find all you can about an Alexander LaVelle Harris now known as Alexander LaVelle Wayne…. Yes he is a mutant…. Thanks Maggie… Good by."
It took the waiter Xander was following, an hour to get were he was going, with Xander and Batman following from the shadows and Superman from the air, they were able to keep track of him and it gave Xander time to change into his work clothes. The tux cost way too much to get trashed in a fight. Plus they had let the X-men know that they were doing and they were staying out of range incase there as a mutant tracker near Star, so they were watching Superman as he tracked the waiter.
The waiter went to an old AIM hideout in Brooklyn, it had lead line walls and was electronically cloaked from all know forms of electronic detection and had an active psi dampener system to prevent any mutant from using their powers to entering or exiting with out the proper authorization. They found Star in a stasis pod in the main lab hooked up to all sorts of monitors; she was behind an energy shield and had guards, the cyborgs from Metropolis, plus the Juggernaut and Mammoth.
Xander looking at Juggernuat, "Damn, no disrespect Superman but were is the hulk when you need him?"
Batman was in full general mode "Superman can keep the Juggernaut busy while, the Shadow keeps the others distracted while I take out the shields and psi dampener so the X-men can help with the Juggernaut."
"O this is so going to hurt!" said Xander as Superman quietly agreed.
During his time at the X-men Mansion Xander had learned a few things about himself, Logan had shown him some fighting moves that Major Kawalsky never knew and with his speed and reaction time and his vamp ability to seem to cling to walls he could do a good impression of Spiderman fighting. He just hopped he could survive a fight with Juggernaut in the same room.
The Lab was quiet with the technicians monitoring the monitors and Cain, Flinders and two other guards playing poker at a table near Star and the other two were watching when Xander made his appearance.
"Well here we are, Pismo Beach and all the clams we can eat. Hey this isn't Pismo beach! I knew I should have turned left at Albuquerque."
While everbody was looked at him as if he were nuts. Xander felt Batman leave the void thru the second shadow portal he had opened in the back of the room, by the shield and psi dampener controls
"Damn tough crowd."
Mammoth stood up and asked "who are you little man."
"I'm Dudley Do-Right and I'm here to save Nell Fenwick (pointing to Star) from the clutches of Snidely Whiplash." Said Xander striking a heroic pose.
The technicians and the cyborgs didn't know whether to laugh or just call for the men in the white coats, Mamoth not the brightest of bulbs blinked a couple of times trying to figure out what to do. Juggernaut got up, put his helmet on and said as he got ready to kill the nut case, "You shouldn't have come here alone, kid."
In a serious tone Xander answered, "who said I was alone" at that, Superman came out of the shadows behind Xander, catching Cain by surprise, taking him out thru the back wall missing Star and Batman, taking out the psi dampener generators. Superman took Cain up and out of the underground base and into the sky and heaved him into a sub orbital path that would take him somewhere out in the middle of the pacific and out of everybody's hair for at least a month or how ever long it takes him to reach dry land.
Batman instinctively ducked when Xander said "who said I was alone" and Superman flew by with Cain like a missile. He quickly shut down the shield generator and the stasis field generator and then he started to capture the technicians and the cyborgs who didn't want to fight Xander again.
Xander had his hands full with Mammoth the guy was faster that he looked and he could take a hit and keep on coming so he was doing his impression of Spiderman jumping around and trying to wear Mammoth down and not wear himself out in the prosess./thank God for vampire stamina/
Star woke up to a battle in front of her. She was still groggy from the drugs and the stasis pod. The last thing she remembered was Tabitha taking her to a club on the other side of the park and something stinging her in the leg. She watched as the cute dark haired man fighting the huge red haired guy and Batman throwing something to the cute guy, who took it and sprayed it into the face of the big guy who them passed out and hit the floor hard, that's when the X-men and Superman showed up.
Xander Thanked Batman for the knock out gas, he was tired. He saw that Star was awake and trying to get out of the pod. He went over and opened the lid for her. "Star Kawalsky I presume, there are some people here to see you."
After checking to make sure she was all right and a small ass chewing from Storm about club hopping with strangers and not telling her sister, who was worried sick not knowing, were she was and if she was still alive, who she was with and were she was going.
By the time the police showed up Xander and the X-men had left. Xander quickly changed back into his tux and made sure none of his bruises showed went back to the party and was surprised that nobody noticed that he; Bruce and Clark were missing, except maybe Peter Parker. He let Rachael know that her sister was safe with Batman and Superman should be in the cop's hands by now. Peter Heard this because he was hiding out from Jamison and had seen Xander walk out of a Shadow and hear him talk to Rachael and Lois was there as well. Rachael gave Xander a crushing hug and a mind blowing Kiss.
Peter wasn't getting any danger signals from Xander so he just watched him, after about 20 minute Xander checked his watch and after a quick look around to make sure no one was watching stepped into a shadow and 10 minutes latter exit with Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent with him. /So Alexander Wayne was the new guy that Lois called the shadow/ (Peter already knew of Clark's and Wayne's alter egos)
Xander and Bruce both had the same smirk when after Clark gave Lois what had happened in the lab, she was on the phone to the Planet dictating the story to Olson.
Peter, mainly to get Jamison of his back had dragged him over close enough for him to hear Lois on the phone, which put Jamison on the phone telling Ben Urich what he had heard and to get down to the police station and get the story. Stars rescue gave the five of them (Xander, Rachael, Bruce, Lois and Clark) a reason to leave the party early, they had to pick Star up from the hospital. While they were standing outside the mansion waiting for Bruce's limo, with quite a few reporters standing around, Xander turned to Clark and loud enough for the people to hear asked "Hey cos, what are you and Lois doing after you file your story?"
"Cos? What do you mean Alex?" Giving Xander a 'what are you up to look'.
"Well my mom is staying with her Cousin who just happens to be your mom, Clark." Xander said with a smirked. Clark saw a "that's my boy" smirk on Bruce. So he leaned of so only Xander could hear him and said "You know I'm going to get you for this."
"Get behind Sita." Was the reply. Then in a serious note "Can we get together with your parents and my mom so I can meet my cousins?"
"Will this Saturday work?"
"Thanks I just might bring Rachael and Star."
"Not a problem."
They were able to find Star in the emergency room complaining that she was all right and wanted to go home. After Rachael saw that she was all right walked into the room and said.
"Star after I get done with you and then Mom and Dad get their pound of flesh you just might need a room here!" And then hugged her, "Don't ever do that to us again."
"I'm sorry, Rachael I thought they were friends. I knew them from school I didn't know they had dropped out."
Rachael whispered in her ear "Then you should have stayed in touch with the X-men, Starfire."
Rachael had to laugh at Stars shocked look and to keep her off balance she continued, "Star I want you to meet my boyfriend Alexander and his Father Bruce Wayne and Xander's Cousin Clark Kent and his wife Lois." From the way Stars eyes widened she recognized Xander from her rescue. As each was announced they came up and shook her hand, her brain had almost shut down by then.
"Rachael?"
"We'll talk when we get home Star, I have a few words to say and then we will call mom and I'm sure she will have a few as well."
"But"
"I'll tell mom about your spandex party suit, the gold one."
Star was scared /how did Rachael know about that/
They finally got her released and got them home. Xander asked if they should stay at the school than here but Rachael had enough running around she just wanted to yell at her sister, have a cry with her and go to sleep in her own bed.
After dropping off the sisters and taking the Kents to their hotel. Xander decided he needed to go for a walk; he let Bruce know that he would talk to him later. Xander knew that Bruce would want him to come to Gotham to live but the city just gave him the creeps. So after changing, he went to a demon bar he had found a couple of days ago for a drink. The blood wine wasn't too bad the blood lessened his hunger and the wine covered up the stale taste on the blood.
He had been sitting in a dark corner for about 20 minutes just thinking of his future and going to College; he would have to find one that had a lot of night courses. He was going to finish his road trip as well he still had a month left of the summer yet. He was looking around at the bar he was in, it was slightly better that Willy's in Sunnydale and bigger but pretty much the same clientele, vampires, demons and the scum of humanity. That's when the guy came running in, bought a bottle of whisky and chugged it right there. He looked like a young executive type, in an expensive suit, who had just been in a fight, he was a vamp but not of the same line as Xander's sire but of the Dracula line. When the bartender asked what had happened to him, he said one word, Blade. In a matter of a minute about half of the people in the bar paid their bills and left, most were vamps including the bartender, leaving only the demons and the humans still there, the only vamps left were Xander and the suit at the bar.
Blade had been following the survivor, of the raid he had done on a warehouse on the docks. The warehouse had been a Blood and organ farm run by a Russian mob with ties to an old Vampire clan from Romania. The survivor was the vamp in charge of the operation. He got away, when debris from the Superman and Juggernauts exit from the Aim lab two blocks away, had destroyed the Warehouse but let the vamp escape. Blade had chased the Vamp all over the City for an hour. He knew he had found him when he saw the vamps leaving the bar, only his name could clear out a demon bar like that. So he went in. The first thing he saw was the vamp in question at the bar draining a second bottle, the other patrons were pretending that he was invisible except the kid in the corner, he was watching everything.
Xander watched as a big black man, armed to the teeth, walked into the bar. The guy gave off a subdued Vamp signal of the Dracula line, but had the power of a master vamp, pure predator. Rachael had said that Blade was hard to describe, now he understood. Xander decided just to sit it out and watch, he didn't think it would last very long. After seeing the outfit that Blade was wearing, he was having second thoughts about letting Bruce's Butler Alfred make a battle suit for him.
Blade ignored the kid for now he had a vamp to kill. The Suit didn't even beg he just said CRAP and closed his eyes, it was very anticlimactic, just a swing of his blade, for Blade. He turned his attention on the only person in the bar that didn't seem afraid of him, the young man sitting in the dark corner. His sense said he was a vamp of the Aurelius line, or had been turned by one. The kids vamp signal was different, cleaner, he could feel the vampireness in him, just no demon. Then there was the way the shadows seem to hug him like a cloak, making it hard to get a good look at his face. The kid smiled at him gave him a thumbs up and faded into the shadow and vanished.
Xander didn't like the way Blade was looking at him so he smiled, gave him the thumb and exited the bar by way of the shadow express, it was getting close to morning on the east coast so he decided to see what Cordy was doing. She was in an office ranting to herself. Xander saw Angel and another guy were hiding out in Angels basement apartment under the office. So Xander slipped into the office and sat down on the couch and watched Cordelia ramble on to herself about how unfair it was for the dork to be related to one of the richest men in the world and her she was a struggling actress working for a P.I.
Angel was sitting in his apartment wondering when Cordelia was going to quit so he could get some quiet, Doyle had passed out ten minute ago after he had cleaned out Angel's stash of scotch, that's when he heard Xander, he hadn't heard him enter.
"Hey Cor when did you start talking to yourself."
Cordelia whipped around "Xander?" and saw him sitting on the couch, "What how? You were in New York and Hour ago, you Dweeb."
"Nice to see you to Cordy, I see you've already sent the big bad Vampire into hiding." Xander could feel Angel coming up the stairs.
That's when Doyle woke up and screamed from a vision. "NO, O GOD NO!"
Angel turned around and went to Doyle. Xander was up and out of his seat and standing by Angel in two seconds, Cordelia couldn't believe how fast Xander moved he made Angel look slow.
"Doyle what did you see?"
"Angel you have to stop them they are going to destroy the earth." Them Doyle passed out from the vision.
"Doyle who? Where? Shit!"
That's when Angle felt the master vampire, he turned and saw Xander, "What the?"
Xander saw that Angel was upset that he could get any more from Doyle and Xander felt that it was important his mutant sixth sense was saying that what ever Doyle had saw was going to happen tonight. Then Angel turned to him and Xander realized that he had forgotten to cloak his vamp aura. (When Xander learned to function during the day time he found that he could lessen his aura to an almost human level but it takes a constant conscience effort.) That's when Xander felt somebody using a shadow portal to enter the apartment. He turned and saw a short guy in a bad suit and hat, exit a shadow in a back corner.
"Hey Angel."
"Whistler what are you doing here."
"Helping you save the world since your seer has passed out, with out giving you the 411 and the kid here can help."
Xander?
"Yes, it seems that a rouge government agency had kidnapped two people to experiment on, they believe these two people are in some way immortal."
When Xander heard rouge government agency only one came to his mind NID so he asked, "Who, where and why do they think the two people are so called immortal?"
"Right to the point kid the who are the actor Kevin Sorbo and a guy calling himself Adam Pierson, the where is under a Fraternity in Sunnydale, it is a project calling itself the Initiative but it is being run by the NID."
"Crap"
"In buckets full kid. They think they are immortal because Sorbo is who he became famous for playing and Pierson is like your new girl friend only he is as old as Sita."
"O lovely, any thing else?"
"Yea, the NID gave the eggheads in the Initiative two live Goa'uld to play with and the program is being run by a nut case, one Dr. Maggie Walsh and she has plans to see what happens when a Goa'uld is blended with a so called immortal and Sorbo isn't the dangerous one, Pierson is, between 3 to 4000 years ago, he and his three friends laid a swath of destruction thru the middle east that still is whispered about today, they were called the four horsemen and he was death, for the last 3000 years he has been trying to remain invisible and has been mostly a scholar. He has been pretty much everything between a slave to a king, it's the king part that has the PTB worried."
"What I would have thought that his being the Pale rider would have worried them?"
"Nope, you see about a 1500 years ago Pierson went and much to his embarrassment, got tricked into becoming king of England and went and became famous again, only for the side of good this time. You see the guy who tricked him was an old fart who called himself a wizard and he went by the name of Merlin and Pierson was going by the name of Arthur Pendragon at the time."
"O you got to be shitting me!"
Sorry kid, when you went and got turned, you were put into the big leagues, as I told Sita and she told you the Big guy has plans for you and part of it is to keep my Bosses from screwing up. One more thing Pierson and Sita Know each other, as well as Joy and Sorbo." With that he left.
Angel looked at Xander in shock. The fact that Xander had met Sita and was still alive, was a shock in its self but by the way Whistler talked they were friends was an even bigger shock. Then Cordelia piped up.
"Who is this Sita that has you spooked Angel."
"She is a legend, a myth, or so I thought among the Vampires. She is suppose to be 5000 years old and so powerful that she can walk in the sun without being hurt and religious and blessed items do not hurt ether. Her very name will cause the demons and vampire in a city to leave in fear for she, like the slayer, hunts and kills vampires and demons."
"If she is a Vampire why dose she hunt them."
Xander answered as he dug his cell phone out of a pocket. "Cordy, One thing she never lost her soul, and the other is she is of a different Vampire line, it was a different demon that created her line of vampires."
Xander hit speed dial.
"Hey Buffy…. Yea it was great, did you get a good picture?….Great but that's not why I'm calling. I'm at Angels and his friend Doyle had a vision…. Yea it's another possible apocalypse….. No! no demons that I can see just some human stupidity…..No according to Whistler a group of NID scientists have moved into Sunnydale and set up shop somewhere under the College and their calling themselves the Initiative…Such Language young lady, Angels is listening you know…yea from the expression on his face he is wondering how you know how to cuss in Gaelic…. It seems that the NID kidnapped the Actor Kevin Sorbo and some guy named Adam Pierson…something about Immortality…. Yes again…..no some bitch named Maggie Walsh also has a couple of Goa'uld to play with and Whistler says she has plans to let them blend with her two guests… that's what he said…. You think you know which we're on our way….Damn your mom has such a potty mouth….see you."
"We need to go Deadboy and no Cordy you have to stay and keep an eye on Doyle."
"Why dweeb."
"Because Angel and I will have to move fast and we had this neat trick with our faces that will make it harder for them to idee us if they get a good picture of us as we blitzkrieg them."
After some pouting from Cordelia and Angel grabbing a sword they left. Angel was intrigued by the Shadow void and how fast it took to step out of a shadow across the street from Buffy's house. They walked up to the door, just as Xander reached for the buzzer the door opened with Buffy on the other side. Xander had to smirk as Angel's jaw dropped and he turned white as a sheet, Sita had dropped her Buffy personality and was dress in her Bloodrayne outfit (the outfit she wore on the Helicarrier when they visited Col. Fury) and her hair was as red as Willows, with sharper angels on her face making her look six years older and her green eyes looked lighter. (Off and on since the late 1800's Sita when she wasn't subbing for a Slayer, she had created the personality of Bloodrayne. She was Agent Bloodrayne for the OSS during WW2 and the CIA during the 60's. She had made a very big impression in the demon circles as Bloodrayne, who according to one rumor had killed Sita.)
"Bloody Hell! Bloodrayne!" said a scared Angel his Irish accent showing. "O my god Buffy." Thinking Bloodrayne might have hurt Buffy tried to enter, only to bounce of the barrier. Xander just shook his head and entered the house. "Are you going to tell him or are you going let him suffer? And what name should I use now?"
Sita smiled showing her fangs and turned to Angel and in her Buffy voice said "Come in Angel we have some talking to do."
Turning to Xander "You can call me by my Birth name."
"You know Dead boy is going to freak even more when I do that" turning to "Joyce Nice look Mrs. S why do I have this feeling that the two of you want to come along for the ride?" Joyce had given up her mom look and was dressed in an outfit similar, but less revealing and more refined than Sita's. Black leather pants, black silk shirt, black boots and a black duster, her hair was pulled back into a pony tail and Xander had caught a glimpse of a rapier under the duster.
Angel had come in and was watching everybody like a mouse that had found himself in a cat convention. "Buffy is that You?"
"Yes Liam this is the real me."
"Your Bloodrayne but that would make you about 150 years old."
"Bloodrayne is just one of the many names that I have use over the last five millennium Liam."
Xander couldn't help himself "Liam O'Connel aka Angelus aka Angel may I introduce Sita aka Gabrielle of Potidaea Queen of the Amazons aka the Duchess Elisabeth Hunter aka Bloodrayne aka Elisabeth Ann Summers wife to King Tutankhamen aka Thomas Kommen."
Angel passed out. While Angel was on the floor Xander took Buffy to the Campus so she could show him the Frat house that the Initiative was under, while there Xander and Buffy did a quite look around of the base from the shadows. They didn't like what they saw, especially what they found in room 314. Kevin and Adam were strapped to two tables in the main central room on the top level. When they got back to Buffy's place Angel was coming to. He found himself still on the floor and the others in the kitchen drinking hot coco. After Angel got over the shock, they decided on their plan of action. The three of them Buffy, Xander and Angel would hit the base and get Kevin and Adam out of the Initiative and Joyce would have the house set up in case they had to move fast, there was a good change that Kevin and Adam might have trackers on them.
When they were ready the three stepped into a shadow.
