AN: I own nothing, but the plot. This is very AU and OOC.

Children of the Iron Knight

Lex and Xander woke at the same time, and wondered what had happened the night before. Lex could remember taking kids trick or treating, then all hell had broken lose.

"Xander did we become Sabertooth and Wolverine last night, or was that a dream? Well for me the female Wolverine."

"Pretty sure we did, and I can't get the claws off of my fingers." Xander said with panic in his voice.

"Well I can see the wood handles for the punch blades I used last night. So where did the claws go?" Lex said as she scratched the backs of her hands.

"Going out on a limb here but I think we need to see Giles about this."

"Ok! Xander, uhm... you smell like me a bit, does that mean we really are siblings?" Xander leaned over and sniffed.

"Yeah. Cool, so we really are kind of like twins." Xander said with his trade mark goofy grin. Lex mirrored the grin back at him, as they got up and dressed to go see Giles.

"Good lord are you sure you both retained everything from last night?" Giles asked as he polished his glasses.

"Well we are not sure about the healing factor, but Xan got a new set of metal claws that won't come off. Also the punch blades that were made to look like Wolverine's claws are gone." Lex said scratching the backs of her hands again.

"Why do you keep scratching the backs of your hands?" Giles asked as he replaced his glass.

"Xan, I think the blades are in my arms still." Lex said "We need a knife or a claw to scratch us."

"You want to see if you have the healing abilities?" Lex nodded. "Alright, let me get the first aid kit, just in case." Giles went to his bath room to get tape and gauze.

"On the count of three. One, Two, Three." Both teens picked rock. Giles sighed at the sight before him.

"Why are you playing rock, paper, scissors?"

"I think we should do me first in case, you know."

"Very chivalrous of you Xander. I think it is commendable that you look after you cousin the way you do."

"Well, Giles it's more like sister."

"What do you mean?"

After a long twenty minute awkward explanation of the stories surrounding how they came to be. Giles frowned and rubbed his fingers along his brow.

"Alright so it would seem that Alana, your mother Lex, was telling the truth. They met a man who claimed to be Tony Stark the playboy billionaire then proceeded to get incredibly drunk and both of your mothers sleep with him?" Giles looked like he had a headache.

"Yeah G-man that is about the size of it. My mother lied to Tony Harris and got him to marry her, so I was not a illegitimate child."

"And my mother was made out to be the lying slut." Lex said with a sniff.

"I am so sorry Lex, I know you loved you mother very much." Lex just bowed her head and looked to Xander, who wrapped an arm around her.

"So now you have super sensitive noses, eye sight is now better than perfect, hearing much the same, you both have this healing factor, and as you put it 'built in weapons' now. Have I missed anything?"

"Yes, we have their memories and would be considered feral mutants now. Also our canine teeth are different now too, Xan's are like the original Sabertooth and mine are like Wolverine's."

"And a feeling of being a pack. Like Buffy, Willow and you, we consider as part of our pack."

"Oh! Thank you." Giles smiled before polishing his glasses again. "Lex I would like to see your claws as well." Lex nodded. She held out her hands away from where anyone was sitting, flexed her hands and forearms. A set of very shiny claws were ejected quickly from her hands.

"Does that hurt?"

"A little, I'll get used to it." Lex said firmly. She relaxed her hands and the claws slipped back in to her forearms. She watched as the cuts healed within seconds.

"So we had best tell the others. I will ask Buffy and Willow to meet us at the Library." Giles said as he reached for his phone.

"So how do we make them normal again?" Buffy asked Giles after everyone had arrived in the library to discuss what had happened the night before.

"Well I don't know as we can or that either Xander or Lex wants too." Giles was a bit frustrated with Buffy's attitude with the pair. It really was not that much of a shock that they were half siblings. In Giles mind he real only saw them as siblings.

"We have to they deserve a normal life." Buffy said emphatically, almost to the point of stomping her foot. Xander and Lex sighed as they listen to the Watcher and Slayer debate with each other.

"Buffy, why don't you ask us what we want? All we have tried to do is help you, to make sure you were not alone in this. And before you blow up and say it's your job, we chose to do the right thing and fight the good fight with our friend who could use the help. Now just because we were magically turned into mutants, you want to kick us out." Xander said with growl.

"I don't want you guys to die!" Buffy shouted, trying desperately not to cry.

"Well you don't have to worry about that now." Lex said matter of factly, and arches a brow at her.

"Wh-What do you mean?" Buffy sniffled. Lex rolled her eyes.

"We have Wolverine and Sabertooth's mutations. We heal just like them. Do you have any idea how old they are?"

"No."

"They are both at least a century old." Xander said looking at his claws. Buffy gasped.

"Oh shiny!" Xander extended his claws all the way out, and purred at Buffy as she examined his claws. Lex purred her approval as Willow started timidly forward to look at her bothers claws. They both looked at Giles with large smiles revealing their new larger canine teeth. Giles simply smiled and nodded.

"So you two have built in weapons now and you are harder then hell to kill?" Buffy asked when Willow continued the question.

"And you consider us your pack?"

Xander and Lex shared a silent look and then both nodded.

"I can't believe you two are brother and sister. Why didn't you tell me?" Willow asked looking beyond hurt.

"Well Wills we just found out this morning when we woke up. Our scent tells us that we are related, closer then cousins." Xander said with a sheepish grin as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"This supports the family rumors about our moms and our possible father." Lex said with a sigh.

"Why does everyone else get all the luck? Everyone is taller them me, and now the twins have super powers with weapons that will never get taken from them." Buffy whined. Giles sighed and cleaned his glasses.

"Buffy I don't think you know what this really means for the two of them. One they will be looked at with fear for the rest of their lives, two they will have to watch everyone they know grow old and die. That is of course if someone does not find a way to kill them first. The government will want to get their hands on them to turn them into weapons. Look at the original Wolverine, he is a living weapon." Giles shook his head sadly at the two mutant scoobies. "Are you sure that you want to stay this way?" again Xander and Lex shared a look before nodding to each other.

"Yeah G-Man, sometime the right thing is the hardest to do." Lex nodded her agreement.
