"Sister we do not want Xander to get mad at the Chaos Witch"

"That is why I have allowed the magic the Witch used to fog up the memory of the spell that was used."

"So he will have an idea but only the basics?"

"Yes younger brother."

_Sunnydale_

Buffy and Willow had been worried when the finished the spell. Xander had gotten sick and passed out! There was no turning back now though Willow had already organized the crash and every thing. The spell had to be last minute to avoid any chance of it breaking because of familiarity or Giles finding out. Buffy came up with the idea of just telling Xander he hyperventilated when he heard his big brother was gone and then passed out. Hopefully he would have no memory of the spell. Later at the hospital their prays seemed to be answered. Xander acted as if he was a 10 year old boy with no memory of the spell, thought he did ask for his uncle Roy a lot.

_On a plane headed to Colorado Springs 2 days later_

-This sucks, I am a 18 year old man stuck in a 10 year olds body. Probably because of the magical mugging. Nothing was even broken I was just knocked out by a spell! The muggers even sent me to the hospital them self? Nothing was taken not even my money, which leads me to believe that I got caught in trap meant for one of the local wizards. With my luck they probably meant to get one of my relatives that were visiting for a reunion. Hopefully it was a group of good guys so my evil side of the family still think that I have no magic at all.-

Xander starts to softly drifted off to sleep hoping that his Aunt Hade is not who he thinks she is.

Zzzzzzzzz Zzzzzzzzzzzz

Xander feels some one shaking him from his sleep. Opening his eyes he sees the nice blue eyed flight attendant. Yawning Xander listens to her.

"Young man wake up and buckle up and get ready to land, we're landing"

Xander smiles and say a soft "thank you". Then he buckles and waves to her. The attendant walks off to help the next person.

_In the Airport_

(Hade)

-I can not wait to meet young Alex! Hopefully he still has the memories of hi ten year old self!
That way I am still the loving Aunt that gives him shelter form his mean and nasty parents!-

(Xander)

- I did not realize that some one could get so scared getting out of a plane. I have spent the whole time praying that Aunt Hade is Catherin Hade and not Katey Hade. I named all of the gods I knew and even some I did not know I knew. I started with the saints when I could no longer come up with the names of gods. Catherin was always nice to me and all ways wanted to help my learn. With her I would not have to pretend that I was an idiot or hide how much I knew or could do with out fear of being used to help lord Voldemort or who ever was the Dark lord this week. Katey would use me for every thing and if she knew about my magic I would have a new tattoo by the end of the week, and not a good one either.-

(out side view)

Xander came out of the gate and started look for his 'Aunt Hade' . Finally finding her he felt his greatest fear become reality. Not only did his ' Aunt Hade ' have the face of an angel, it hid that devil she was. Luckily though Katey did not see his face change. All she saw was a downward expression and sad eyes. Katey walked up too Xander and said.

" You miss your brother so much don't you?".

Great full that his blunder was hidden shakes his head yes and lets him self cry as he muttered about his big brother. In Xander's mind though he was wishing that his big brother was real though so he would have some comforting memories to go with him as he entered hell.

_SGC_

"Danny I really think you should go home that last mission was a night mare with you dying again an-"

" I'am going home Jack."

"Who are you and were is Danny!"

"It is me Jack! Janet threatened me! If I am still here in 2 hours she will have on medical leave for the next 3 weeks! I am just picking up a gift I got for a new neighborer kid."

" Uh Danny sorry to burst your bubble but you have lived there for a max of 3 days and there were no other open apartments."

"I know and the kid is an orphan that is moving in with a current resident."

"When is he moving in?" Jack was starting to want to know more about the kid. Not unusual and though his protectiveness he felt was more then usual, not alarming.

"Today, he is probably getting of the plane right now. Hey, Jack you should come to meet him. Katey said she had a relative in the Air Force that Xander looks up to."

"Really? Do you think we know who he-"

"She Jack"

"She is?"

"The name seemed familiar to me but I could not place it. Katey said her name was Catherin Hade."

"Danny you better know her, she's your land lord and has been on more then one trip though the gate to help you with dig sites!"

"Oh Cat, thats how all of the archaeologist in SGC know her. She hates her name and will pound any one in to the ground if called by that name."

At that fact Jack raised an eye brow and said. "Really? Thanks for the warning."

"Jack you are safe from her fist by the fact of your rank."

"That is really good to hear, now back to the kid."

"Right. Well Xander is 10years of age, he had a big brother that died in the accident that took his parents. Both were, in Katey's words, most likely drunk with Jesse trying to stop them from driving. Katey told me that it was Jesse that kept their parents off of Xander's back. She had tried a multiple of times to get the government to let her have the boys, but nothing worked. Katey loved her sister but she needed to clean up. Xander is very gifted in arts and languages. She wants me to try to get him started on Arabic or Chinese. Xan-"

"Danny why do you have a large summary of this kids life?"

Danny stars to blush and stammers out.

"Well when Katey found out who I was she was very excited and want me to meet Xander to cheer him up. Apparently Xander is a big fan of mine. I am right under Jesse and above Cat."

Jack just looked at Danny like he had a second head. The thought of of Danny having a fan club that did not involve the nurses in the infirmary was an odd one. A knock at the door took Jack out of his thoughts. It was Cat at the door.

"Colonel O'Neill, Dr Jackson you ready to come see Xander?"

"Sure, do you mind if Jack comes too."

"No, not at all. Colonel O'Neill may just help Xander feel at home, he reminds of me Jesse."

"Why do I feel like I have dodged a bullet?"
