Sons and Daughters of Sineya / Wood It Work
"I'm surprised you let us move the wardrobe," Buffy said as she set it in the corner of the room they'd claimed in Giles' jazz club which had formerly been a dressing room.
"It'll be easier to use this way, since we no longer have to sneak into my room," Xander replied as he set a duffle bag full of his clothes on a table. "Besides, the less time I spend at home the better."
The girls winced, but Xander didn't notice as he unpacked his clothes and stuffed them in the dresser that was used to hold costume supplies before they'd emptied it.
"It will make it easier to take Mom and Giles to visit Narnia," Buffy said, changing the subject.
"That's probably why they keep making excuses," Willow guessed, "because they don't want to have to sneak around."
"Things could get real awkward real quick if they were caught sneaking into a high school student's room at their age," Buffy joked.
"Hold on a second," Willow said, opening the wardrobe and climbing inside, only to return a moment later. "Okay, it still works. I suddenly got this horrible fear that moving it broke the connection to Narnia."
"I hadn't even thought of that," Buffy admitted.
"I've moved it all over my room and I stole it from the basement where I originally found it," Xander said, "so I knew that wouldn't be a problem."
"Just me worrying for nothing thankfully," Willow said, relieved. "I really wish I'd gone with you when I was twelve, I've missed years of smooches, maybe decades!"
Buffy grinned. "I doubt you'd have been able to afford everything you'd need to stay for a single decade when you were twelve, I'm guessing at most if you spent as much time there as here, five years tops."
"Still, that's five years of naked Xander time," Willow said, "which is worth more than a decade of clothed Xander time."
Xander laughed. "Really swelling my ego here," he warned her.
"Pretty sure it wouldn't be five years of naked Xander time since I just can't see twelve year old you turning to Xander and demanding he strip naked," Buffy said.
"And I totally would have if you'd asked," Xander told her.
"Really?" Willow asked, wide eyed.
"Completely," Xander agreed, "as long as you agreed to strip too."
"I totally would have," Willow claimed.
The room shuddered and the smell of ozone grew as a hole opened up in the air near the door, the three teens quickly turning to face it, preparing for monsters to come pouring out.
A young boy popped out of the hole in the air. "Still not Narnia," he complained before noticing the three teens. "You look like... Xander? Willow?"
"J-Jessie," Willow stuttered out.
"Holy crap, it is you!" Jessie said in disbelief before a young red head popped in behind him and smacked him in the back of head, knocking him down.
"Language!" Young Willow chided him, before noticing the three. "Xander, me, and some girl I don't know... hold on." She poked her head through the hole and could be heard yelling, "Guys come on, you've got to see this!"
The Young Willow was quickly joined by a Young Xander, Amy, some girl they didn't recognize, and five red haired demons in coveralls.
"Look! I have boobies!" Young Willow told Young Xander.
"I told you, you were worrying for nothing," Young Xander told Young Willow.
"Boss, how is there an older you?" one of the demons asked.
"We're poking holes in reality, we were bound to hit an alternate Sunnydale eventually," Young Xander replied.
"Where's the older me?" Young Amy asked. "I wanna see how big my breasts grow."
"Xander, this is all your fault," Buffy told him, relaxing a little as none of the demons or children seemed hostile.
"How is it my fault?" the two Xanders chorused.
"You're in charge, so you're responsible," Young Jessie told Young Xander.
"When did I end up in charge?" Young Xander demanded.
"When you decided to build a wardrobe to Narnia," Young Willow said. "We've just been following your lead."
"This kind of weirdness just screams Xander," Buffy told her boyfriend.
"Sorry, but it does," Willow told him.
"Can we get an explanation and some introductions?" Buffy asked.
"Me, Xander, Amy, and Jessie are all pretty obvious," Willow offered.
"Xander, you're up," Young Jessie said.
Young Xander nodded. "I'm Xander and this is my girlfriend Willow. This is Jessie and his girlfriends Amy and Sharon. This is Greg, Brian, Maggie, Linda, and Sarah."
Xander nodded. "I'm Xander and these are my girlfriends Willow and Buffy."
"I don't think we've met Buffy," Young Willow said. "I'm sure we'd have remembered you."
"I only moved here a handful of months ago," Buffy replied. "I'm probably still in LA in your world."
"Where's the older me?" Jessie asked.
"And me," Amy added.
"And me," Sharon said.
Xander winced. "You died a day or two after Buffy arrived. You got turned by a vampire and I had to stake the demon wearing your face."
"I got killed by one of those weaklings?" Jessie asked in disbelief.
"Weaklings?" Buffy repeated. "You know vampires are like four times as strong as a human, right?"
"We're all Spidermen," Jessie said proudly.
"Willow got us some Re'em's blood at Jessie's suggestion so we are way stronger than they are," Young Xander explained.
"Oh," Buffy said. "I didn't know that was an option."
"Neither did I," Willow said.
"Amy is off doing whatever Amy does," Xander offered. "I don't recall ever meeting Sharon so I can't help you there."
"That sucks," Sharon said with a frown, before Amy and Jessie wrapped an arm around her.
"Back to the explanation," Buffy suggested, waving towards the hole in the air.
"Willow read the Chronicles of Narnia to me and Jessie so I decided to build a wardrobe to Narnia," Young Xander replied. "It's a work in progress."
Willow turned to Xander. "I told you, you could do anything you set your mind to."
"You have," Xander agreed, deciding not to argue the point considering there was a hole in the air leading to a past Sunnydale in front of him.
"This is going to be confusing," Young Willow decided. "Let me get a couple of whiteboards." She hopped back through the hole.
"Willow thinks better when she can write things out," Young Amy explained.
"We know," Xander and Buffy chorused.
Ten Minutes Later...
Everyone looked at the two whiteboards the two Willows had written the order of events on.
"And that brings us up to now," the redheads chorused, capping their markers at the same time as if they'd practiced it.
"Do you think you have a wardrobe to Narnia in your basement?" Sharon asked Young Xander.
"Maybe," Young Xander replied. "I mean, I haven't checked, but if he does, I probably do too."
"We've learned more trying to get to Narnia than we would having a way to Narnia," Young Willow pointed out.
"A lot more," Willow agreed, more than a little jealous of her younger self.
"I'm not saying we stop trying to create a way to Narnia, I'm just saying I'm going to check and see if the wardrobe leads to it because it'd be nice to have a way to check if we'd done it," Young Xander said.
"Be careful, you guys probably won't be up to facing Jadis for about half a decade," Xander warned them.
"Got that right," Buffy said, forcing herself not to laugh. "She defeated us at best three times each before we managed to vanquish her."
Young Xander rolled his eyes. "You already told us enough to give away the joke on that one."
Buffy pouted as everyone laughed. "Darn it, I thought I was being subtle on that one."
"Innuendo is kinda our thing," Jessie said smugly.
"So many bad jokes," Young Willow groaned out.
Young Xander kissed her cheek. "Love me, love my bad jokes!"
"Love you, tolerate your bad jokes," she corrected him, turning her head to give him a peck on the lips.
"So, have you been enjoying naked Xander time?" Buffy asked Young Willow with a grin.
"Eep!" Young Willow blushed bright red as did Young Xander.
"You have?!" Buffy exclaimed in shock. "I thought you were lying when you said you would have demanded naked Xander time when you were twelve," she told Willow.
"Bro, have you been holding out on me?" Jessie asked Young Xander.
"No! I mean kinda..." Young Xander admitted, causing everyone to stare at the two. "Listen, it's not what you think," he said.
Young Willow hid behind Xander. "We just hold hands!"
"Naked hand holding?" Maggie asked, confused.
Young Xander sighed. "Remember the box we made to slide the doors through so we could sneak them in our houses?"
"Yeah?" Jessie asked curiously.
"Well, I sleep naked at home and we both take the boxes to bed so we can hold hands when we sleep," Young Xander explained.
"At least tell me there's some groping," Sharon told Young Willow, "otherwise you are completely wasting the boxes."
"There may be some accidental gropage," Young Xander allowed, "when we feel around to find a hand or hug, but not... playing doctor, alright?"
Jessie considered that and nodded. "That's a good use for it. We're going to need some head sized ones."
"We could disguise them as books," Amy said with a smile.
"Long distance kissage?" Young Xander guessed while Young Willow recovered and peeked over his shoulder.
"Exactly, and much more convenient than a phone," Amy said. "If I had one connected to Sharon on one side and Jessie on the other I could pretend I'd fallen asleep reading and it'd be like they were right there with me in kissing distance!"
"That's an awesome idea," Young Xander said, turning around to hug Young Willow. "We need to make some facebooks!"
"Also ones for the hands," Sharon said. "I happen to like the hugs too."
"Can we make them like arm bands?" Jessie asked with a grin. "We could put our arms on each other's bodies and no one could tell."
"Not when we were in bed anyway," Amy said thoughtfully.
"You were even weirder when you were younger," Buffy told Xander.
Xander opened his mouth to argue and then closed it and shrugged. "Yeah, that's fair."
"I think it's more Jessie and Xander together really bring out the weird in each other," Willow argued as her younger self had erased a white board and was currently designing a portal based system for being able to hug and kiss people from a distance. "And me apparently," she added.
Young Xander sent The Boys back through the portal so they could go have lunch, then joined the three older teens while the younger ones were arguing designs and how many small portals were needed with Young Willow. "So you only have one way in and out of Narnia?"
"Just the Wardrobe," Xander agreed.
"I'll get you several pairs of linked doors," Young Xander decided, "that way you don't have to worry about getting cut off or trapped, plus it makes it easier to get around."
"Thanks, are they hard to set up?" Xander asked.
"No, once they are connected you just open the door and Bob's your uncle," his younger self told him.
Xander considered that and frowned. "Time doesn't move in Narnia so the first one who went through would end up all by themselves until they returned. We have to all enter together."
Young Xander nodded. "So you need a hub to meet up in. We've had The Boys build a number of buildings on empty worlds. What kind of world would you like for your hub?"
"What kind of world?" Buffy asked.
Young Xander nodded. "We've got worlds we aren't even using. We have a number of empty worlds we connected to just searching about. From arctic wastelands to endless desert and anything in between, we've set up places to build hubs."
"Empty worlds?" Willow asked.
"Life but nothing intelligent, like the Earth if man never developed," Young Xander explained. "Personally we like The Larder which is what we call the world which is like a huge forest filled with wildlife... lots of bears for some reason, but the weather is nice and it is awesome. We have several buildings there if you don't mind us as neighbors. It'd take us about a day to get a hub properly set up for you so you could have a door in all three of your houses leading to it and then one door leading to Narnia."
"It sounds great, but I'm not sure how we could pay you back for all of that," Xander admitted.
"You guys are half a decade ahead of us," Young Xander said with a grin. "We could get the latest movies and video games in advance for a lot cheaper and if that's not enough, I'm thinking lottery numbers."
"Yeah... that would do it," Buffy agreed.
