Season 3 "Graduation Day Part 1"

The X Man went off for the donut run, it was midnight and the gang still hadn't found any new info on the Mayor's ascension. The only thing that kept the guys going were cups and cups of coffee and sugary, doughy products.

Sounded like a job for Xander Harris.

Just as Xander left the library, his named was whispered in the shadows. He turned to see Anya, holding a large purse.

"Well if it isn't the ex demon who nearly got me and my friends killed by a vamperic replica of me."

"Please, he wanted to make you his sex slave."

"Is there a reason you're hear?"

"Say goodbye, and maybe give you an offer."

"Goodbye for what and what kind of offer?"

"I'm not one to stick around for… the end of the world. I usually scram, quickly, and I was wondering if you could come with me."

"Umm look, Anya we kissed once. If you thought it meant anything, I"

"Oh forget the kiss, I just want you away from danger."

"I'm flattered, but confused."

"I hate humans, I think they're pathetic, weak and useless to the environment."

"Again confused."

"It's just that, you're all those things. Pathetic, useless, weak."

"Hey, I'll have you know I can put any hell beast in orbit, literally."

"Yeah, you're magic is great and sloppy and stuff, but you show potential. I want you around."

"Sorry, I'm turning down the offer. I've been saving lives for two years and I'm not gonna stop now."

"Don't you mean, Buffy's been saving lives?"

"Okay, my point is I'm at Buffy's side all the way. For us, when it's an Apocalypse we don't run away. Sorry Anya." Xander walked off.

"Yeah well, I hope you die first!"

Author's Note: Next chapter will jump right into season 6. So I'll give you a brief synopsis of s4 and s5.

S4: Xander has seemingly grown out of the silly high school guy he was in season 1-3, but still with a little Harris goofiness. Anya returns, she and Xander end up together. He and Lance(head of the bullies in "The Pack") grow a bond over the use of magic. Anya continues with her wittiness by insinuating Lance is gay, Xander denies it, but later finds out it's true. Xander and the gang work the spell for Buffy to fight Adam.

S5: Xander and Anya have a brief argument over Xander's constant use of magic, Xander believes she is jealous because she doesn't have the powers she once did. Anya scurries off and gets her brain scrambled by Glory. Xander seeks vengeance, fights Glory briefly before Buffy intervenes. He takes care of Anya, the events from "Spiral to the "The Gift take place (Xander working the magic). Buffy dies.
