"Well, mistakes happen and I know she's family," he told the blonde and red-head. Xander had felt guilty for those girls deaths and he wasn't even the one that left the house but still it was irresponsible of him and of course clueless of him to think that they were all okay. Xander had been in the house and how he didn't notice that there were a lack of girls he had no idea but he was an idiot and felt bad about it. So, maybe in a way it was his fault as well so he should really cut Buffy some slack considering Xander could have been in Richmond months ago and possibly have saved the girls from Angelus or at least distract Angelus from them...but then Xander would have died.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah," he said with a little frustration. "I understand she's family yada, yada, but I barely know her and if I got to know the little bugger maybe I would understand but sorry I don't," he said with a frown. He had only met the little girl for two seconds and it was when the whole gang was going to save Buffy from Glory which they were to late for but she came back alive so once again everything was okay. Xander should have known that Buffy wanted children and if she had a choice she would if the supernatural didn't effect her in anyway and it sucked she couldn't especially with the person she loved. "I guess that's why you see Kathy as your daughter."

Xander forgot that Angel had a son, his name was Connor or something. "If it makes you feel any better I'm not planning to have kids because of you know our lives I dunno about you guys but by the time we save the world for the last time we'll probably be with canes," he said jokingly. "Who knows maybe I'll be doing the snoopy dance then," he said with a big grin on his face. "But in all seriousness how did Angel and Darla have that baby? I mean I didn't even know Angel had you know...cells down there if I can call them that," Xander felt really weird talking about Angel's body part right now but he really did want to know how it happened hopefully had an answer.

His got it now, he understood why she got Kathy out of there. "Well then, I can't wait to meet her then. Do you think she could call me uncle Xander?" He said with a goofy grin. He couldn't help but joke he wanted Buffy to feel better and not be sad about not being able to have children, she deserved happiness and Xander hoped she'd get it at some point in her life. The three of them were in a lot of stress and this conversation was what they all needed.

"I think we'll just leave it at that," Xander was honestly scared of what Buffy would tell him so he thought that it was better left alone because he really didn't want to become angry again. "I don't think he liked me per say but he didn't have a problem but now he likes me!" He said with a big smile. "Best buds now y'know, it went really well we just talked about the past and what went wrong and stuff I wanna play the dude in a video game so I can beat him at something," he said with a little laugh. He hadn't seen Angel in awhile actually he really needed that face off.

"Yeah, count me out of the magic part maybe I'll just stick to the research," he joined along with Buffy by laughing as well. "Getting wrinkly, gonna be a fun time," he said with another laugh. Finally the serious part of the conversation was over and now for the fun. "ROAD TRIP to Disney World would be awesome! Let's do it!" He told the girls excitedly. It would be great being with his friends and just having a good time which was what he greatly needed to be with his best friends again.

Buffy had became really close with Kathy, in a way it was more like she was a daughter to her then a friend. Willow though it was great how close they had became, it really was sweet. Willow had agreed with the Slayer chiming in after. “Xander Kathy really has become more then just Angel’s sister, she is more like family. I know that when you meet her you really will love her.” Said Willow. It was hard for the witch to not start crying for Buffy, it was sad having to hear how much she wanted kids. Even Willow knew that at one point she was going to want them, but being with a vampire didn’t make that easy. But it seemed as though even Xander was starting to understand why Buffy was so close to her, Willow knew he would. He is one of the most kind hearted guys that she knows.

Willow can understand now why it killed Buffy so much to find out that Angel had a kid, because of how much she wanted them. Which really was sad Buffy would make the best mother in the world to a child, she was doing that now with Kathy. She really had done a great job in taking care of her and watching her whenever Angel was gone. “You know Buffy its not just you that became close to her, Kathy really has taken a close liking to you as well. I mean come on you are really the only one she likes to talk to or come to when something is wrong. Its almost like to her you are her mom.” Said Willow.

Xander was right it was pretty crazy in this world trying to have a kid, but that didn’t mean that she may never want them. She just didn’t know if it would ever happen, her and Lenore really weren’t there just yet. “Well Xander I hope you want kids because me and whoever I’m with may need your help on that.” She said with a smile. “I’m just playing Xander all though you would have pretty kids if I do say so.”

Willow did very much want to find away to help Angel, little bit each day she looks into learning a new spells. So far so good she has found a lot of possibilities, even ways to suppress it. “Don’t worry Buffy I think we will find away to make it for the better, my magic’s are a lot better then they use to be. I find a lot more when it comes to helping Angels soul now then I did then.” She told her. Willow did agree they all needed to take a nice long trip, and Disney did sound like it be fun. “You know I say we should so do that! Maybe even bring Kathy with us. I know that she would love it there.” Said Willow. She could tell that even Xander was all game for going, after all he did always say he wanted to go. It really would be good for them, get there minds off of everything around them. It really was just what they needed to bring them close again.

“I’m so happy that we are all sepding this time with each other, I really have missed us so.” She said looking at her two besties.

She knew that she needed to introduce Kathy and Xander but it hadn’t been the best time to do so at all recently. Either Kathy was doing something, she was at work, or avoiding everyone, or Xander was somewhere else. She wasn’t sure if Kathy and Xander had actually even been in the same room together before but she made a mental note to rectify that as soon as she got home. “I promise that I will introduce you two as soon as we are all back in Virginia. However I will tell you this…you think I’m protective of Angel? She’s ten times worse than I am. She’ll not let anything slip when it comes to him. So watch what is sad, okay?” She asked, somewhat teasing though at the same time the warning was real. Kathy had searched for Angel for years meaning that if Xander started out on his ‘Angel is bad’ monolog it wouldn’t end well for anyone.

It saddened her to hear that Xander didn’t plan to have children, especially because of their lives. She knew her next suggestion would be an unpopular one however that didn’t mean she didn’t feel as if she had to make it. “Okay, this goes to both of you. I never want my life to affect your futures. I know that you two have been there with me through everything but I would never begrudge you if you wanted to walk away. You two are my best friends and you will always be my family…but don’t let my fate keep you from having your lives. Don’t give up on your dreams to have children if that’s what you want because of my calling. Please, don’t let me being the slayer take away something else.” She told him, her eyes brimming with tears, not wanting to allow anyone else to lose something because of her.

She wasn’t surprised when Xander changed the subject, though she did truly wish that he had thought about changing it to something else. The subject of Connor was a painful one for the blonde slayer and to this day it wasn’t something that she really liked to think about, let alone talk about. However she knew that Xander was just asking questions that he had wanted to ask for a long time but had never been given the opportunity, so instead of clamming up like she so desperately wanted to she sucked it up and answered as best as she could…which wasn’t much to be honest.

“I don’t know how they ended up having a kid. I know that there have been a lot of speculation but I’ve never really had the conversation with Angel as to be honest, I probably really don’t want to know. I know they slept together when Angel was really down…I know that he was intentionally trying to lose his soul because he couldn’t handle shit anymore and he figured that if he lost his soul he’d eventually get killed, whether it happen by my hand or something else I don’t know. However I also know that he woke up the next morning with his soul still intact and then nine months later Darla showed up saying she was pregnant. I know that Darla staked herself in order to get the baby out safely and after that I don’t know anymore about the birth or pregnancy.” She told him with a shrug, hating the way that her voice broke on the word pregnancy.

She laughed at the thought of Kathy calling Xander ‘Uncle Xander’. “You know, she just might, only if to see Angel’s head explode.” She told him with a grin before her eyes squinted at the thought of Angel and Xander playing video games. “Oh god, please if that ever happens, please let me come and video tape it so I have it for black mail for years to come. I need SOMETHING on the man…” She told Xander with another laugh, this one slightly evil as she thought about the way she could blackmail Angel with a video tape of him playing video games.

She ignored Xander’s comment about getting wrinkly, not able to tell them at that moment that she wouldn’t be growing old with them, instead focusing on his exuberance at the thought of Disney World. “Kathy in Disney World…that could go one of two ways. She would either find the entire thing really amusing…or she’d be like ‘Why am I here?’. God knows with that kid. Though we’ll definitely have to ask her.” She told them with a laugh. “Okay, so are we all good?” She asked them after releasing the hug. She knew she was still keeping a secret but she couldn’t bring herself to tell them. She would, just not at the moment.

"Well, I hope you're right about that Will," he told the red-head. He wanted to like Kathy and he hoped that he would because from what everyone was telling him the little girl seemed down to earth and he couldn't wait to just have a conversation with her which would hopefully be soon. "Got it," he said with a nod. "But...I'm still calling him dead boy, that's his nickname and it's staying!" He said seriously. He labeled him as that and it would stay like that because Xander wasn't going to be boring and just call him Angel. "Besides the guy's not so bad once he lets loose," he said with a grin. Xander wanted to hangout with the vampire soon just so they could talk, he wondered if Angel drank.

"I could be a donor, pass down my funny yet charming personality," he said with another grin on his face. Xander heard Buffy speak and looked at her seeing that her eyes were watering and he didn't want her to be. "Don't worry about it Buff, we're in this together just like high school. This might be your calling but family is family and I'm there for you till the end," he told her with a smile on his face. "And could you see me being daddy Xander? I think I'm fine with not having children," he said with a little laugh. He didn't want kids that much, he had never planned for them and he hadn't even met anyone so he was good for now and even if he did want them he wouldn't leave this life he made a promise and he would stick to it no matter what Buffy or Willow said.

"Weird," he said with a shock on his face. Xander wanted to read more into it by reading some books or going online and finding out some things because he was truly curious, wow he was fully becoming a Giles and that wasn't good at all, Xander needed to kill some brain cells by playing a video game or watching tv and eating chips. There was just a lot to know and teach to the potentials and this seemed interesting so maybe he'd get an answer that he could tell the girls and Angel but with his luck his research would take a really long time which sucked but it would be worth it in the end.

Xander laughed along with Buffy. "I'll have to talk to her about it. I have a niece...who's older than me but I can still spoil her," he said with a smile. The little girl was already having an effect on him and he had barely met her. Xander burst out laughing, his stomach was actually hurting from it. Once he calmed down a little bit he said, "Yeah, that dude has nothing to hide...or does I'm not sure which but man he doesn't do anything embarrassing. When I talk to him I'll try to convince him and by convince I mean beg," he was having a really good time right now, this was the first time where Xander had been happy in many months.

"I think we're all good," he said with a grin. "I'm glad we're spending the time also and I really don't want to go back to our responsibilities so soon because then things will get busy...never thought I'd say I wish we were back in high school just so we could see each other everyday and have sleepovers every weekend," he really did having those special days with the girls. He didn't like the people in high school but being with his friends 24/7 actually meant the world to Xander and even though there was a lot of problems back then he still missed it. Maybe the present was better he didn't know but he hoped that the three of them could go back to doing sleepovers even if they were too old for it now and he also wished that they could hang out a lot once things settled down.

That was one thing Buffy was right about, Kathy was pretty protective when it came to her big bro. Willow though it was so sweet how close the two were, it almost made Willow want a sibling just from watching them. “Yeah I would watch what you say, and I don’t think she will like dead boy So drop it. Other wise you might get a punch to the face, from a kid!” Willow said while trying not to laugh. “Hey I’m just trying to help from getting your butt whipped here.” It was true Kathy could be all cute and cuddly, but make her mad and you have one nasty little vamp on your hands. But she still manages to still be cute while doing it.

Willow couldn’t help but tear up with Buffy, when she began to tell them not to give up on there dreams. Almost like she was worried that she was holding them back from something, which Willow didn’t feel like she was at all. Being with this group was were she was meant to be, she wasn’t ruling out the thoughts of a family one day. But she knew for the time being this was all she wanted, just being with them, keeping the world safe, and ending the day with them. This was all Willow needed right now. But she couldn’t help but worry that Buffy was keeping something from the, almost like she knew something that they didn’t. She was almost talking like she was going to die or something, which had Willow a little worried. She walked over to her best friend taking her in her arms. “Buffy you are not keeping us from anything, being with you and the gang is were I want to be in my life. I love you Buffy and would never turn my back on you.” She then let up giving her a smile. “Plus why would I need kids when I’m to busy taking care of Xander, he is enough of a kid for me as is” She turned smiling at her friend hoping she wasn’t going to get slapped across the face. “I’m just kidding Xander.”

Willow could tell that it really killed Buffy having to deal with Darla having his kid. Which she didn’t blame her, just thinking about Darla put a sick feeling in the witches stomach. She hated the vampire and was happy she was dead. “I don’t know Buffy I doesn’t even make sense to how they had a kid, what I don’t get is how Angel could ever think about even getting near her.” Said Willow with a disgusted look on her face. “But I’m sorry you have had to deal with all that Buffy, you should have been the one having his kid.” Willow did feel bad for the Slayer and wished so much that she could do something to make her feel better.

Willow giggled when Xander was call Kathy his niece. “Yeah lets wait and see if she likes you enough to called that. Remember you are the guy that hated her brother for a long time, so I don’t think you will be playing playstaion with Kathy anytime soon just FYI” Said Willow with a smile. “But then again you spoil her and buy her stuff she might over look it all.”

That was one thing that Willow really did miss, there late night sleep over’s. When they would all hang out, watch old movies, eat snacks, and even would do each others hair. “Yeah I miss those days to, It sucks that we cant do back. But I guess we had to grow up sometime, I just didn’t know growing up meant killing a giant snake and taking on a hell god.” Said the witch with a smile. “Man adult life is hard.”

She let a laugh escape her lips when Xander commented that he was still going to call Angel ‘dead boy’. “Hey, if he doesn’t kick your ass for it that’s his business. I’m not going to tell you what to and what not to call him. He’s a big boy he can stick up for himself.” She told him with a shrug, remembering though with a small pang of sadness how before he left Sunnydale that she would have defended him against anything and everything. Even though he had always been there to keep her safe there was something almost vulnerable about him back then. She had a feeling it was because she was really the only one who knew him at that point.

Now however the situation was different. He had people who cared about him for him, and not because he was a seemingly piece of her. It was strange and while for the most part she was undeniably proud of the life that he had created for himself, there was a small selfish part of her that missed the days that he lived for her and her only. She knew back in Sunnydale that she was the reason that he did what he did, however now he did it for others that he cared about. Again, she was proud of how much he had accomplished, but she still missed being the center of his universe. Selfish she knew, which was the reason she would never mention it to anyone but herself…but that tiny part of her was still there.

“Angel’s never been a bad guy…he just took awhile to loosen up. The Angel that you guys have started to see is the one that I’ve always known. He’s the one that I used to curl up with at the mansion or at his apartment and just either sit in silence or talk about anything and everything. Do you guys remember Ted…the crazy robot that my mom dated? Well who do you think I ranted too? I remember him interrupting me and looking at me like I was crazy asking me if I was going to talk about anything else. The Angel you guys saw wouldn’t ever try to assert himself…yet the Angel I’ve always known…he was the one who kept me going half the time when we were in high school…and when he left…it was like I lost a part of myself.” She admitted.

Her smile left her face completely at hearing Xander’s answer about having children. “I think you’d be an amazing father…just like I think Willow would be an amazing mother.” She told him before throwing a smile at Willow before wiggling her eyebrows. “Oooh, perfect idea! Xander you want to donate? Donate to Willow…that way at least you know who the mommy will be…plus…hello…cute as hell kids, kickass parents and an aunt Buffy who would spoil them all the time. I’m thinking my idea is brilliant.” She teased with a grin, wondering which one would freak out first. Willow’s reply about taking care of Xander sent her into a fit of laughter to the point that she had to hold her stomach to get the cramp to lessen up. “True.” She winked at her before grinning at Xander and throwing him a kiss. “Just remember I love you Xand.”

She nodded sadly when he stated that he didn’t want to go back to their responsibilities. “I know, I feel the same way. I never thought I’d miss Sunnydale High School but at least there we had a place with privacy, which is really ironic if you think about it since it was technically the school library, it was just that no one went in there. At least there we had a place where we could just let everything down and be ourselves, even if that was during a time or two when we were saving the world. Here we have to be adults and I really really miss being a teenager. Not that any of us were ever really able to be kids…at least not since I showed up and ruined everything but still…at least back then we had people in charge of us to speak. Being an adult bites sometimes.” She stated before laughing. “No pun intended for once.”

“I vote that we try to have a sleepover at my apartment once a week, just the three of us. If not once a week at least once a month. I know when we get back things will go back to being crazy and chaotic, but at least if we have a set date for just the three of us we won’t feel so stranded from one another.”

"Good point," he said wondering if Kathy would actually punch him in the face. "But you know me I'm risk boy, boy who is a daredevil, the one, the only, Xander Harris," he said in a narrator voice. He was having a lot of fun with his two best friends right now and he couldn't be any happier knowing that they were finally all okay and could get along just fine. Everything was laid out in the open and there were finally no secrets, well hopefully there wasn't because Xander honestly didn't want another fight. "Okay, good because the name suits him am i right?" He looked at both girls with a goofy grin on his face.

"Haha, you guys are so funny," he tried to say as sarcastically as possible. "I guess...I love you guys too but only because you let me eat the rest of your food," he said jokingly of course. He loved his friends for various reasons and one of them being that they were always there for him no matter what and even if they had a fight they all somehow managed a way to make up which was always the best part of course because then they would hangout so maybe this little thing they had today would actually make them hangout more often since they definitely needed to, they were best friends after all. They could all sit over a tub of cookie dough ice cream and just watch movies, that'd be the best.

"Oh Ted, a creep but an amazing mini pizza maker," Xander said looking up at the sky. God, those pizzas were just to die for, Xander should have gotten the recipe before all of that happened with Ted being evil and all. "You guys were soul-mates of course he had a part of you I mean Anya me be dead but the part of me shad died along with her," he told both girls. The more feelings Xander had grown for Anya the better he understood Buffy and Angel's relationship and it was still very complicated but he knew that they both loved each other and that was enough for him to realize that you can't help who you fall in love with, it just happens and Xander learned that the hard way which was when he left Anya at the altar.

"I'll take that option of buying stuff with her, seems like the safest move," he said with a laugh. He was actually really excited to talk to Kathy and he didn't know why. Xander looked at Willow and then looked at Buffy with a disgusted face. "You're attractive Will but donating don't think I'm up for it," he said with a weird look on his face. "But the kid will have my goofy grin your plan is brilliant but still...no Buff just no that is not happening, nope never," he said shaking his head. Having a kid with Willow that was too weird to think about, he just didn't want to imagine that even if their kids would look cute. He was not thinking about that topic anymore.

"I barely went in that library until I found out about you being a slayer," he laughed after. He remembered the first time Buffy had dropped her bag and Xander had found her stake, he was so confused then. "Hey! Buffy, don't say that! You didn't ruin anything if anything you saved our lives we could have been dead meat if y'know if that vampire had killed Willow and me? I would have died somehow either from a vampire or that mantis," he said with a grossed out look on his face. Never again was he dating an older woman that was his boss or whatever she was.

"I like that idea, I think we should do it," he said with a happy nod. "Finally the amigos, the trio, the three musketeers our back!" He said excitedly. He couldn't wait to start hanging out with them and having a sleepover at least once a month would be the greatest thing because then they could catch up and fill each other in on what had been happening around in the house. Xander hugged both girls feeling too happy about this.

Buffy was right Angel had his not so good moments, but he wasn't a bad guy. He had done in a lot in keeping them safe, if it wasn't for him there would have been times they all could have been dead. Plus Willow couldn't lie there was just something about when they were together that was so cute, they really were the ideal couple Him and Buffy that everyone dreams they had. Well other then the fact he was a vampire. But other then that they worked well together, made each other laugh, and had more in common then some may realize. "Yeah I'm glad he was there for you, because if I remember right we were no there for you at all. We were like under some spell from all those cookies he made. But I can't lie those were pretty darn good cookies." She said with a smile.

"Yeah that is a good idea, Xander does have pretty good looks. He Would make for a cute baby You in?" Willow said with sarcasm in her voice to Xander. She couldn't help but smile when she said Willow would be a great mother, because really it wasn't something that she had though about much. She was always so busy saving the world and working on magic to the point she really don't have time to think about those things. But now that its brought up its a interesting thought. But more then anyone that Willow can see with kids is Buffy. She hopes that one day she will have her own, which is something she can see. Little ones running around with Buffy, even trying to be a Slayer like her mom. But then again with this world and this life and all the responsibility maybe Willow was just dreaming. But a part of her will never lose that hope. "Buffy I think that one day you will make a great mom, but don't worry don't give up. You never know one day you could have your own." Said the witch. "And Aunty Willow will be right there helping."

Willow felt the same way sometimes the responsibility that they had did get old after awhile, but it was what they were destined to do. Plus they have saved a lot of people and trained a lot of Slayers in the process, so everything they have done at the end of the day was so worth the time. But they really did need to spend more time with one another and not forget about the other important things, Friendship and family. It was a lot easier when they did have the library though it was a place that no one went to, where they all could just talk and hang out. It really did make Willow miss school that much more. "Buffy you didn't ruin anything so shut it." She said laughing with her. "If anything you put fun and action into our lives. I wouldn't want life any other way. I'm happy the way that it is now. Right Xander." She said looking to him.

As Buffy began to talk about fun and sleepovers something they needed to do more of, the witch swore she heard a noise coming from what seemed like inside the carder. She could help but turn around looking behind her to the point she was even listening to the conversation that was going on anymore. "Hey guys as much as I'm excited to hear we are having more sleep overs I think there's something else we need to worry about. I think I heard something coming from down there, which I have no idea how? Last I checked everything was dead, in less someone is in there?" Said the witch sounding lost. "What should we do Buff?"

She knew that they would need to talk about the whole having children thing again later…she would make damn sure that her calling didn’t ruin the lives of the ones that she loved, at least anymore than it already had. She could easily see Willow and Xander having children, rather apart or separately, but either way she could see it. She could see her being Aunt Buffy, spoiling those children and then their children. She knew that she needed to tell her friends about what all had happened but she couldn’t bring herself to do so. At least she would make sure that their families, and she would make sure they had them, would be safe.

It was the only promise she could make anymore.

“As long as we aren’t watching a movie in another language where the woman is singing about someone who I swear was her chiropractor and where I have to ask about the water buffalo then I am good to go.” She stated with a laugh before rolling her eyes. “Or another one of those damn vampire movies. One of the girls forced me to read the books that the movies were based on and while yeah they were okay, any time I hear about vampires sparkling I want to honestly punch someone in the face…and we all know how I get when I want to punch something.” She told them with a wink before laughing again. “So let’s stay away from sparkly vampires and water buffalos and we’ll be good.”

She was glad to be wrapped up in her best friend's arms...it was there that she felt more grounded and secure than she had in a long time. Sure Angel made her feel that way but in a different type of way. In her friend's arms they had the past, the present and the future hopefully. She and Angel while having the same thing they hadn't been by each other's side since the beginning. They had broken up and come back together more than once while her friends had been her constant, and she really needed her constant in her life at all times.

They kept her sane...kept her grounded.

Kept her human.

She needed them in her life like she needed air to breath and while she knew that one day she would lose them, just as she would everyone, that day was in no way coming anytime soon if she had anything to say about it (and she definitely did since she was a stubborn one).

Feeling Willow pull away she looked to her, wondering what they had said or done to upset her. It wasn’t until she heard the words and noted where Willow was pointing that her brain caught up with her. She walked over to the edge and looked down, but unfortunately since night had fallen down on them she couldn’t see anything besides what was right at the edge. It was pitch black in the crater, though had she looked she would have noticed that it was always dark in there. She turned around and sighed. “I am thinking that I’m going to have to take a trip to Sunnydale.” She told them with a laugh, sounding more happy than she felt. “Thankfully I brought tools of the trade, plus a couple of flashlights, but yeah. And before you ask yes you can come with me.” She stated, knowing damn well neither of them would want her going by herself.

She made her way to the car and pulled out two bags, one a messenger bag and one a back pack. She threw in stakes, holy water, a couple crosses, and a couple small weapons in one and swung it around her chest before putting a blanket and four flashlights in the other. “Xand, think you can handle the backpack?” She asked him hopefully, wanting to keep the messenger bag around her own chest since it would be more difficult to maneuver. “Alright, we ready?”

Note:: I’m thinking when Spike blew up Sunnydale some magic kept it fairly intact…just busted somehow. Like no rain or anything could touch it so there are things down there…cars…bodies…etc. Should be fun

"Mmm, cookies, great now you guys have made me hungry," he laughed after. He was extremely happy that they could get past everything, it felt good to release all the problems they were having and to now have their friendship back to normal...well sort of normal, whatever normal was. They truly had that family bond and although Xander was basically in love with Buffy in high school when she and Angel were starting to like her, there was still that family bond. Xander wasn't only jealous about Buffy falling for Angel instead of him but he was also jealous that Angel was taking her away from the family, once the two started dating of course. Xander was such an annoying teenager, well he hadn't changed majorly but he wasn't the same either, it was really hard to explain who he was now. He was still that nerdy boy who loved comics and was opinionated but he was less immature.

"One hundred percent, let's start making em Will," adding to the sarcasm. Xander had never thought of starting a family with Willow in that way, well a friend way, it was kind of neat to think about actually but would he actually do it? He had no clue, if he wanted little Harris' running around then he'd be glad to possibly one day but for now he was okay with just doing what he did and that was protecting the world with his two best friends and many other people. "Plus uncle Xander is here, I'll teach them how to build stuff and they can start telling my funny jokes," he said with a big ole grin on his face.

"C'mon! The water buffalo was fun times and it's always great deciphering another language," he said jokingly. He hated those movies with a passion but it was just fun tot talk and eat popcorn wondering what the hell was happening in those movies. God, those were the days when everything seemed so simple, with all the demons running loose and saving the world, really how was it much easier? "Sparkly vampires?" Xander started to laugh he forgot that there were movies about vampires, if only they knew the truth about them and how they don't actually sparkle in the sun. "Sorry, I'm just imagining Angel sparkling in the sun I can see it now 'You have to see me in the light Buffy,'" Xander started to laugh some more holding his stomach.

"Yeah, if you hadn't showed up life would have just been y'know me and Will watching Charlie Brown and going to school while Cordelia opens her mouth and never shuts up," he said with a sigh. That girl could talk, more than Xander. "You've changed a lot of lives Buff you've even saved many including us," he said with a smile. The girl had done a lot for him and Willow and for that he was extremely thankful. He watched the two girls hugged and smiled, this was true friendship right here and Xander was glad to be their friend, this day was really needed.

Xander looked down in the hole which actually seemed pretty creepy. "Yeppers!" He grabbed the backpack from her and held it on his back. "Ready as ever," he said with a smile. Xander was actually excited to visit their hometown even if it was in ruins. "Back to where our friendship began," he said with a smile. This was definitely going to be a trip down memory lane, hopefully Xander wouldn't cry or anything, he didn't want to. And hopefully the boy could get down alright. He wondered what was done there though, some demon just scavenging or something? It was definitely going to be an adventure for the trio.

Willow laughed on the movie commit that Buffy said, there really were some crazy movies out there. Back in the day when they would hang out they really would watch some of the craziest movies it seem, but it was fun because most the time they would sit there and laugh at them. That was half the fun of it. All though they would get more laughs on some of the movies now, Buffy was right it seemed like now in movies the vampires sparkled. Which really was nuts and didn’t make any since at all. It really seemed that people were oblivious to what was really out there. “I agree with Buffy no movies like that please, Kathy all ready tired to make me watch Twilight and I really didn’t want to. “ She told them. “I mean come on vampires don’t Sparkle, good thing to Spike would have a heart attack if he did. Xander was right though it would be pretty funny to see Angel Sparkle that was for sure, Willow tired to imagine it as well. “It would be pretty funny to see I guess, but again he would lose it too if that happened to him. What you think Buffy how would he do with sparkling.” She said with a laugh.

Willow was happy That everyone was doing a lot better now that they had all cleared the air, everyone was laughing and smiling, talking about the way school could have been with out her, which would have been boring. Again Willow cant even imagine life with out Buffy, nor did she want to. “Yeah Buffy you have saved are lives a lot, we really do owe you. You are the best friend that anyone could ever ask for, thanks for always being there when we needed you.” The witch said with a smile

All the sudden there was a sound Willow knew something was down there, she could feel it but most of all she heard it. It seemed as though the crew was about to take another adventure in Sunnydale, well what was left of it. She should be sacred but for some reason she wasn’t, things had changed so much since they lived there. Now she was excited that they would be taking adventure just like in the good old days, this Willow was ready now more then ever. She couldn’t help but give Buffy a big smile when she said they were coming with, knowing they would want to help. “Yeah we are your nuts if you think we are letting you go alone, we got your back always. Right Xander. “She said looking to her friend. Xander was right this was were there friendship begin, never leaving each others sides, always having each others backs. Buffy had came prepared as always, never leaving home with out the Slayer essentials which was good they would need them. Willow also would use any spells that they would need to get through the wreckage. “I’m ready now more then ever Buffy, lets see what is down there.” She told her. This was it they were about to began there journey back through were it all started for the group. Who knows what they were about to encounter?

She could see both of their trepidation as she sat at the edge of the crater, looking around for the best way to get done. Honestly, she was more concerned at the three of them finding their way out of the crater, not finding their way down. She knew that she could easily jump down and most likely still make it in one piece, her friends not so much. Looking around she saw a tree off into the distance and had an idea. She held up a hand and ran back to her trunk, finding several ropes that were each she believed fifty foot or so long. She remembered having bought these for a exercise with the potentials but for some reason they were still in her trunk.

For once she was grateful she was a pack rat.

She pulled several out and tied the end of each one to the other. Her blonde hair was getting annoying so she quickly took the pony tail holder off of her wrist and put her hair up into a quick pony tail, knowing that it would be better for later on anyway if her hair wasn’t in her face. Once she had several ropes tied together she tied one end to the tree and then threw the other end over the edge of the crater. “Stay here.” She told them, her eyes conveying that she meant it. “I’m going to go down first to make sure this thing is long enough and sturdy enough to hold us. This way we can also have some form of rope to help us get the hell out of there once we’re done. I’ll call up when I’m down and you two will go one at a time down. Okay?” She asked, but didn’t give either one of them the option to disobey as she made her way down into what was left of their former town.

Luckily she had anticipated just enough rope as she saw that while it didn’t make it all the way to the bottom, there was enough that she could jump down, and so could her two best friends. She quickly jumped the other five feet down to the bottom but refused to look around until she was sure that her friends were okay and with her. She knew they would want to be here for this and while she wasn’t exactly looking forward to walking through the former town, she knew that it was something that had to be done, especially if demons were still there.

“Alright, one of you at a time.” She called out. “Go slow, be careful. The rope ends about five feet from the ground so there’s a jump but not a huge one.” She called up again, and waited both Xander and Willow to make their way down. She wished they could come at the same time as she didn’t like the thought of either of them being left alone up top but figured it was better than either of them being left alone down in what used to be the Hellmouth. She bit her lip, trying to keep herself from looking around. She muttered under her breath at the ridiculousness of the situation, having really never thought that they would be here again.

Just went to show that she should never assume things…since more often than not she was wrong.

“A vampire forced you to watch a vampire movie?” Xander started laughing. It was just weird how a real vampire wanted to watch a fake vampire sparkle. And wouldn’t the real vampire get angry at how fake it was? Xander couldn’t even watch vampire movies anymore because he had been through it all the only vampire movie he was a little bit okay with watching was ‘Dracula’ but even that made him not want to watch it, it seemed real but when Xander had that whole thing with the real Dracula controlling him, it just wasn’t a good time…at all. “Glad new agree no vampire movies. How ‘bout comedies?” I need a good laugh,” he told both girls. He hadn’t watched a good comedy in a while actually.

“Got it!” Xander wasn’t going to be the first one to go down obviously, considering he wasn’t a slayer or a witch, he was just Xander. He waited for Buffy to tell them they could go down. “Ladies first,” he gestured for Will, he’d be the last one to go down even though it would be kind of scary, hopefully there weren’t any demons lurking around. “No disagreeing either if there was anything up here you and Buffy would have sensed it,” he waited for the red-head to go down the rope and waited for one of the girls to tell him to come down then he went down the rope. “Man, this is P.E. all over again.” He muttered to himself. He was going down the rope instead of up but still it was a lot of effort, good thing Xander wasn’t afraid of heights. It was also a good thing that he gained muscle because back in high school he was such a weakling well for the first half anyway. He finally came to the end of the rope and dropped hoping he didn’t fall to the ground awkwardly; he landed on his feet and looked at both of the girls. “Wow…this place is a wreck,” he looked around wondering how big of a damage Spike did with that necklace.

It was so weird to see this place in ruins, the place where he grew up in, the place where he met the greatest friends he had ever had, it actually made him sad to see it all go. “Do you guys really think there’s something down here?” He asked the girls. What demons or vampires would want to stay in a stink hole like this it had nothing not even humans to kill so what was the point? Maybe his questions would be answered once the trio started exploring. “Do you guys think we could find Sunnydale High in this mess?” Once again asking. He actually wondered if they actually find the school and if they could find their houses and maybe even find Buffy’s mom’s grave. There was just so much to do even if it was in ruins, still though this was the place it all started.

Xander was instantly hit with memories of the gang, he was reminiscing it all, from the moment h ehad met Buffy and his life changed especially when he found out about vampires. All that drama they had before it seemed so pointless, they should have just been happy but they couldn’t be because of all the death and running away when something went bad. God, from an outsiders view maybe it seemed like a miserable life but it was what made the trio so close. So, if Xander had to thank the supernatural for something he would thank all of them for making him so close to his friends.

This was going to so exciting getting to go down into that hole, getting to go back to the place that they all grew up. Well once was the place, now it was nothing more then a great big pile of nothing. But it will still be cool getting to check it all out, seeing things that once was there home. But in away it still will be kind of sad, and maybe even scary who knows what they are about to find down there. Willow watched as Buffy got the ropes ready for them so they could head down, Willow stepped up to her ready. But it seemed that Buffy wanted to go first and check it out, again always worrying for her friends before herself making sure it was safe. “Ok Buffy we will wait here and wait for you to call us down, just please be careful. She told her friend. She turned to Xander laughing at his commit. “ This is like PE all over again, but you liked PE remember? you got to check out all the girls in Gym remember.” She said while rolling her eyes at him.

Buffy said they could all start to come down, so Willow slowly began to make her way do the rope, followed by Xander. She looked around shocked at how it looked now, you could barley tell that this was the place they once called home. “Yeah this place is a wreck, If I wouldn’t all ready know this place is Sunnydale I would wonder were the heck we are.” said the witch. Xander had wondered if there even was something down here, and there minds weren’t just playing tricks on them. But Willow knew something was down here she could feel it. “I think there is something here guys, I don’t know Buffy something just don’t feel right to me. Its hard to explain but I can feel something.” Said Willow.

Xander had wondered if they would find Sunnydale with in this mess, which she think they would. But it was going to take a bit of walking to get there, they drove pretty far away from the school when they got away. It was amazing really how much of the city was destroyed in the end, the blast really did a number on it. “You know when we see the school I think we will know, it wont be hard to miss. We went there for so long I mean we pretty much lived there.” They needed more light to look and the flash lights were not bright enough it seemed, so she had an idea that Tara and her used once before. She held out her head calling a quick spell, suddenly a ball of light appeared in front of them. “This will help us see better I think, that way we can use both hands to look and not worry about flash lights. I really want to check this place out, I mean this was once our home ” She said with a smile.

Upon waiting for both Xander and Willow to come down she looked around, seeing a few rocks to which would do nicely for what she wanted to do. She made her way over to them and picked two up, setting both down on the road that way it didn’t swing anywhere other than where they needed it. She noticed her friend’s looks and shrugs. “Hey, I want to make sure that we have a way to get back up once we are done.” She laughed, though even to herself the laugh sounded bitter and strained. She didn’t want to be here for numerous reasons but she knew that it had to be done.

If there was one thing she was grateful for with being the slayer it was her enhanced senses. She could feel things before they came (at least most of the time) and she could also see a lot better in the dark than most humans. Her eyesight didn’t rival Angel’s or other vampires’ of course but at least she didn’t have to wait as long for her eyes to adjust to the blackness around them as some others. The whole place was dark, which was ironic since it was still light outside. Something about it screamed magic to her and she wondered if Willow could feel it to.

She held up a hand to signal for them to wait before moving along. “Everyone grab a flash light.” She stated before handing each of them one, Willow had a light blue one, Xander had a green one, and she had a purple one. They were all fairly small and pretty low level, but they were great on batteries which was a good thing. They also didn’t attract as much attention as some of the higher powered ones would.

“I’m sure the high school is one of the few things we’ll be able to find…” She stated but stopped when they started walking, noticing what she was seeing. “Does anyone else notice that this seems a bit…to undisturbed?” She asked, motioning around. Houses were still standing, cars were still around, and unfortunately she counted two bodies already that looked as if they were hours old…not over a year. “Okay, I’m officially creeped out.” She muttered, making sure that she was sticking close to Willow and Xander. Not that she was scared so to speak but she wanted to make sure they didn’t lose one another. It almost felt as if the town had been deserted, not decimated.

“She made her way towards what she assumed was the school. The town was in decent condition and yet still it was disconcerting not seeing street signs of specific landmarks. Upon making her way towards what she assumed was the school she stopped and motioned to what was in front of her. “Okay, does it strike anyone as odd that the Magic Box is in semi decent condition?” She asked, pointing to the sign that was still in readable condition. “I mean that’s pretty much how it looked when…” She stated but trailed off, not wanting to bring up thoughts about Willow’s fight at the magic box that had ruined the shop. It was not a topic that any of them really discussed any longer, just like they didn’t discuss her being brought back from the dead. Those topics were pretty much off limits to the three friends unless it was absolutely necessary. This did not qualify as one of those times.
