In the abandoned warehouse Tothiros was planning his gain of power. His followers stood before him and he smiled as much as he could in his gaseous form. He writhed above the stage as they milled around reading through ancient texts and preparing themselves. All his plans were coming together, finally.
He was thinking about all of the demon soldiers in front of him, eager to help bring hell on earth and him as their ruler. What a shame that he�d have to actually kill half of them just to regain his lost strength before he opened the Hellmouth, but he knew they were willing sacrifices, well as willing as you can get when you didn�t know. If he could of smiled anymore he would of, but soon, he�d be able to. He was going to love having his body back.
All these years and he still remembered how it looked, thick black skin, almost shinny and slick looking like oil. The fine leather-ish covering he adorned himself with, all human skin of course. But the feeling of being so strong is what he remembered best, the power he had to crush the supposed mightiest with just a flick of his finger. He may not have been towering, but he made for it so gloriously. Yes, it would all be his soon.

�So wow Xander you�re like Superman or something, with your new nifty powers.� Buffy said smiling happily along with Willow.
�Well not really. I can only use direct sunlight so when its overcast, raining or there are clouds its not of the good. And I can only recharge at dawn as I found out when I tried. Do you know how hard it is to wake up at dawn? Most of the time I�m dealing at half my power, but I�ve been told quiet harshly that right now, I need to do it all properly because we need all the help we can. Even after a while the magic started to disappear like with the Soldier at Halloween, I can only just remember one to turn a chicken into a toad and why would I need that?�
�Do you know it the other way round?�
�I think so, why?�
�Well if you ever get hungry and there�s only a toad around, instant chicken.�
�It would be a live chicken Buff and I�m not killing a chicken to eat� well maybe if I was hungry enough. But still yuck it used to be a toad�
Logan was sitting in the armchair as he watched Xander chat with his friends. He shook his head at the conversation, muttering to himself about not eating any of that toady tasting chicken. He knew Xander had heard when he turned round and smiled. He got a smirk in return.
�See, so it is important.�
�Yes ok fine.�
�Well actually that spell would be important for spell components changing leg of toad to leg of chicken or� um lets just give a whoopee for California weather.� Willow added changing the conversation back to a normal enough one. �I bet anywhere else where it got snow and stuff you�d be left kind of powerless.�
�I know Willow, never have I been so happy for sun and more sun.�
They were quiet for a while, but Willow�s face was scrunched up in thought. A thinking Willow always caused trouble or helped out the situation. He knew this wouldn�t help.
�What about the others left at Xavier�s, what did you tell them?� Willow asked.
�That we had some stuff we had to do, they don�t ask many questions when Logan�s involved. Just an �ok good luck, watch out for yourself� and all that.�
�I usually do my own thing.� Logan spoke up gruffly as all eyes turned to him.
�But what will they say when you don�t come back.�
And there was the million dollar question, something he and Logan had talked about for so long before venturing through the portal and back, well for Xander, home.
�Oh, um.�
�You didn�t tell them Xander that�s awful.�
�Well actually, I�ll probably be going back�
�What!� Willow nearly shrieked out, Buffy wasn�t any better, her mouth opening and closing like a fish. Giles seemed to be doing the best of them all, just glancing at both Logan and Xander and giving a faint nod of understanding.
�But Xander I�ll miss you so much�We all will.�
�And you�ve only just got back.�
�I know guys, but there�s just something about back there that I just need to go back to. And I know for sure Logan won�t stay here. Even if he won�t admit to it, he�s liked and is needed back there.� That got a grunt from Logan, �I�m not going straight away, I�ll be here for a while after this is all over.�
They were silent, no one wanting to really say anything after Xander�s bombshell. Finally though Giles brought everyone back round to the topic at hand.
�Can we can get back to the books please?� Giles asked �I�ve already found a bit more about this Tothiros. It�s stated here that there is a ritual sacrifice of quite a few demons; and I doubt many of his followers would be glad to be so easily cast aside.�
�So we�re looking for a bunch of demons running in the opposite direction from where this guy is?� Xander quipped.
�Actually from the way it looks there would be more running towards him. It seems that he can make their death quite� pleasurable.�
�Eww I don�t want to know how.� Buffy said.
�Yes, you really don�t.�
�Listen up� do any of you actually know how to stop this guy�thing?� Logan asked seriously, hoping something would be figured out already. Sitting here was getting this side of annoying especially as he was more an action guy.
�Well not precisely. However the main thing to do would be to make sure it can�t absorb any of its followers.� replied Giles, still flipping through his books.
�Can do. But do we know where it is and when this will happen?� Buffy piped in.
�Yeah actually I do. I�ve seen and was told. We don�t have much time, tomorrow night is the soonest he can get done with what he wants. We need to be ready.� Xander had already told them about the Powers That Be and all they had done to help, so they didn�t question the information he had.
�Well we can handle those demons fine. We get them tonight?� Buffy said, already prepared for a fight.
�No, he can get more before the time, we need to be there just before the time. It�s the only way.� Giles told her.
�Oh, so lets plan then, we don�t have much time to waste.�
�Yes I agree, we best get started.�
