Chapter Five: Ok, since when is water bad for you?
-Sunnydale HS Library, three hours after the reveal-“He’s such an idiot sometimes.” Buffy looked over to Willow who ever since Xander left after the reveal of the prophecy and his being stalked by the same crazy vamp that it mentioned, has been cursing Xander’s name every few minutes.
“Yes Willow he is quite dumb, now can we continue looking more info on the things trying to kill us.” Buffy said lazily as she looked through the dusty book in front of her.“Sorry Buffy, but did you see him jumping at Kendra like that, he could have killed him, and then the weird voice thing he did to you two, and, and, and then the whole Drusilla thing.” Willow dropped down in the seat beside Buffy and laid her head on the table.Buffy looked wide eyed at Willow before flying out of her chair and pinning Giles down with a look. “Speaking of Xander and his weirdness, what the hell did he do to me earlier?” “Giles!” Buffy yelled when her watcher didn’t look at her.Without looking up from his book Giles stated. “Well Buffy I believe he used some of Magda’s power in some form of hypnosis to calm you and miss young, and from the looks of it he succeeded.” Giles said as he turned the page.Just then before Buffy could question Giles anymore the library doors opened and the subject of her questions came strolling in.Xander, where have you been?” Buffy yelled.At Buffy’s yell Willow and Giles looked up, and Angel came from the stacks with a few books in his arms.“And that Kendra is why you should never trust cats.” Xander said as he led Kendra into the Library.“But I still don’t understand why that mouse fed that cat to da shark.” Kendra said with a weird look on her face.“Well Kendra, Tom was trying to steal Jerry’s food and you never steal food from Jerry, and know Tom knows why.” Xander said with a smile.“It still confuses me greatly.” Kendra seemed to notice where they were. “Hello Mr. Giles, how has your research been going, and how may I be of assistance.”“Ah Kendra welcome back, the research is slow going and your free to pick up a tome and help.” Giles said as he took a sip from the teacup at his side.“Xander!” Buffy yelled.Xander raised an eyebrow and looked at Buffy. “You bellowed, Buff.”“What did you do to me and Kendra earlier, and don’t do it again.” Buffy fumed.“Well Buff I saw that you and angel were about to attack Kendra so I took a chance and tried a new technique I’ve been working on. And lucky for me it worked.” Xander said with a smirk. ‘Now if only I could try that in the girls locker room.’“Yes Xander I have been meaning to ask you if you could perhaps tell us the workings behind what you managed to pull off, it was quite brilliant if not crazy. I as a man would not step in front of one angry woman let alone a slayer, but you stopped two of them in their tracks.” Giles said as a smirk came over him.“Well G-man it’s simple.” Xander started to explain while he and Giles ignored the death glares from Buffy and Willow for Giles’ angry woman comment. “I was chatting with Magda one night and we stumbled on a weird train of thought, that slayers are predators and oddly catlike. So when I saw Buffy and Kendra start the usual fight for dominance when Kendra awoke I figured that if a stronger presence made itself known, would the slayer presence back down for a time. I knew I couldn’t make it stick for a long time since the power of the slayer is so strong but all I needed was a moment or two to talk to them, you with me so far.” Xander waited for a nod from Giles before he continued.“So I pulled forth some of Magda’s power and centered it in my voice and let the commanding presence of the primal loose, and as you saw it worked better than I thought. But while I think it would work better on normal humans, I don’t think I could hold a slayer for long, because while Kendra fell deep into the primal’ power Buffy was able to fight it mostly but couldn’t break fully free until I let her, and I think that’s because of how long she’s been a slayer.” Xander finished as he sat down next to Giles.“So this can be compared to the Hypnosis that some master vampire’s exhibit?” Giles asked.“Me and Magda seem to agree on that, which is why she thinks we need to research ways to get around that little trick so some vamp can’t get the drop on us.” Xander was interrupted by Buffy.“Umm sorry to break up guy time, but your saying that Xander hypnotized me and Kendra today?” Buffy asked. “Yes Buffy it would seem so.” Giles said.“Xander you only get one warning, if you ever do that again I will rip off your rams and beat you with them.” Buffy said as she glared at Xander.Xander looked a Buffy for a minute before responding. “You know Buffy that glare makes you look soo cute.” Xander said as he poked her in her nose and slid from his chair walking to door to Giles’ office. “Giles im gonna borrow your phone to call Ms. C ok.” Xander said leaving a blushing and fuming Buffy behind.//////////////////////////////////////Jessica Harris sat down next to Jenny Calendar as they both rested at Jenny’s apartment with a cup tea after the uproar at the library with Alex’s friends and the new girl. Jessica felt that her and Jenny were getting along fine, once she got over the fact that such and older woman was so close to her son in a way that she wasn’t was a shock but seeing as jenny meant her son no harm Jessica was happy that Jenny was there for her so, Jessica was brought out of her thoughts by a ringing phone.
“Hello, Jenny speaking.”“…………”“Yea she’s here with me, do you want to talk to here? Ok we’ll see you soon.”Jenny looked at Jessica. “That was Xander he, just got back to the library and wanted us to stop by.”“Ok just let me get my jacket.” Jessica said as she hopped up from the couch.”/////////////////////////////////// After Xander made his call he made his way back out into the library and walked over to where Kendra was sat across from Giles and reading from a large tome.Giles seeing that Xander had joined them he stated to everyone. “Good your back, I wanted to speak with you all about training to withstand mental assaults such as Xander’s voice trick and the holds vampires tend to use on their victims, and I believe that Xander here is the best person to train you all.”Buffy spoke up. “And just why is that Giles.”“Yeah why is Xander the best choice to train us Giles?” Questioned Willow as she looked at Xander.“Well as Xander brought up when he and Ms. Young came into the library he and Magda can speak to one another.”“So what you want me to ask Magda to train you all in mental shields and such?” Xander asked with a small grin.“Um, yes that is what im asking I figured since you brought it up and have been dealing with the more mental side of all of this that you would understand how important this all is.” Giles said as he cleaned his glasses and looked at Xander.“Your right I do understand the mental aspects of this life and I do know of the importance of a strong mental shield, so hold on while I check with Magda on this.” Xander said with a sad tone as he closed his eyes.Buffy and Willow stood to the side wondering what the hell Xander and Giles were talking about. Angel just had a grim look on his face.“Mr. Giles I have found more information on the Order of Teraka and its members at least until the early 1900’s.” Kendra said as she spared a glance at Xander then looked back at Giles.“Thank you Kendra I think it best we study up on our possible enemies while we have a chance. Now all of you come close and listen.” Giles said as he motioned everyone to him.Xander meanwhile was in his mindscape talking to Magda.-Xander’s Mindscape-Xander sat in front of a small campfire in a moonlit clearing with his back leaning on the furry form of his tenant Magda, talking with her about Giles’ request for training.
‘So Magda what do you think about all of this.’{Well I can see where his logic is leading him, but the only methods I know will not go over well with him nor the others in your little group.} Magda purred.‘I don’t really care about the methods, but your saying it’s possible for this training to work right?’ Xander said with a little heat.{Yes of course it is young one, anything is possible when working with the mind.} Magda smirked as well as a hyena could, which it turns out is quite well.‘Ok well tell me the plan so I can let them all chose, and stop smirking like that it’s creeping me out.’ Xander said with a shudder.-Back with the others-“EEEEEEEEW, man of bugs!” Was the first sound Xander awoke to as Buffy and Willow were staring at a book with the others crowed around them, as Xander was about to speak the doors to the library opened to admit his mother and Jenny Calendar.
A few minutes later after hellos were exchanged and everyone was seated Xander began to speak.“Now Giles and I have decided that the group as a whole need to train minds to lessen the chance of mental attacks or control outside of our own power, now Giles asked me to talk to Magda and see if she would help us in this training and im here to say that yes she know a number of methods, but.” Xander said as he saw the relieved faces of Buffy and Kendra most likely from his earlier show of mental control on them. “She has told me of her preferred method, and I agree with her that it will not go over well with this group, So I told her that I would leave it up to you all to decide whether we would go through with it or not.” Xander finish and waited for them to look at each other.“Xander I am very wary at best but I must ask for the increase safety this training will offer, just what is this method Magda has offered?” Giles asked with a foreboding feeling in his gut.Xander looked to the ceiling as he relayed what Magda told him. “Well Giles the best way that Magda knows to train and develop the mental prowess of the group is to put you all under like I did to Buffy and Kendra before and ask you questions and let you all fight against my hold on you and break free.” Xander heard the gasps of the group and the angry growl coming from ether Buffy or Angel, but he kept talking. “But that’s not all, the question I must ask will be personal and before you ask no I can’t not ask them, the way Magda explained this is that as the questions become more and more personal the more the persons mind will fight back to keep its secrets from being told, and that will help you to strengthen your own minds.” Xander stopped here and looked at the group with fire in his eyes. “I want to do this and I care not for your modesty if you come into this with me will not go easy, I want us all safe I have ever since I joined this fight. And now I have the power to back up my words so I will do whatever I have to keep those I care for safe, and before anyone mouths off about the unfairness of it all while I have you under I will allow you all to ask me question as well and I will tell the truth, just know that the truth hurts so pick what you ask wisely.” Xander lost the heated look and finished.” Please I ask you all go through with this I know that whatever we are all hiding will hurt at first but I want you all safe, I can’t lose anyone else not again.” Xander said as he walked off into the stacks to let the others think on what he said.Once Xander was out of sight the other looked back and forth at each other but no one said anything. After a few minutes someone broke the disturbing silence.“Well as Xander already knows a lot about me and sooner or later I would have to tell you all anyway, im going through with it.” Everyone looked over to Jenny Calendar who had a small smile on her face. And her words seemed to open the floodgates.“He’s my son, and for too long I haven’t been there for him. I can’t say no.” Said a thoughtful Jesscia Harris.“It was my idea for him to ask Magda, I do have things I thought best left in the past but I can’t very well besmirch the young man now.” Said a grim looking Giles.“I’m scared that’s for sure but Xander’s right I can’t lose anyone else ether, not after Jesse.” Said a sad Willow.“I have no desire to be under the power he holds, but me watcher has always told me to become stronger and if this will help that I shall join to.” Said a determent Kendra.Buffy just sighed. “Fine I’ll join too but I say here and now if anyone makes fun of anything I say, im hurting them.” Buffy said as she pouted in her chair.Everyone looked over to the last member of the group. “I’m sorry but I can’t do this with you all, my past is not right for this. And because of my status as a master vampire it wouldn’t work right it would turn into a fight for power between me and Xander. Even before when he used it in Buffy and Kendra I wanted nothing more than to make him stop and show him who the real master is, but I will stay and keep watch over the training to help keep you all safe.’ Angel said as he looked to the floor not meeting their eyes.Everyone thought about Angel’s words before Giles spoke up. “I understand Angel I do know of some of your past because of the diaries of some other watchers and I agree with you.” Giles said not noticing the look Buffy sent him. “Now let’s all go get Xander and set up a time and place for this to take place.//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////The next day found the group sitting down in Giles’ flat with tea or coffee in front of them with faces of sheer determination and Angel standing by a close and shaded window.
“Ok Xander I believe we’re all as ready as we can get, you may start whenever you’re ready.” Said Giles as everyone else nodded and looked at Xander.‘Alright Magda please keep the energy flowing, and if I lose focus let me know and guide me please.’ Xander asked of his tenant.{That I shall Xander, I wish you the best of luck.} Magda said as she started to let her power flow and got herself ready.Xander took a deep breath and pulling on Magda’s power and centered it attuned it to his voice, and began what would change this group forever, hopefully for the better.The group gasped as the pressure in the room seemed to multiply and it all came from Xander.“I AM ALEXANDER AND I CALL UPON THE MINDS OF THE HUMANS IN THIS ROOM TO REVEAL THE UTMOST TRUTH TO THE QUESTION I ASK ON THIS DAY, FIGHT AS YOU MIGHT YOUR MINDS ARE NOW MIND TO COMMAND, AND COMMAND I SHALL.” Said Xander as he fixed them all with blazing green eyes, Xander decided to make sure of his power so he asked a question to someone who he was sure of the answer.“Willow Rosenberg, you and I have formed a small club. What position do I hold in it?” Xander asked the easy question.“Xander you are the treasurer of the ‘We Hate Cordelia Club’, you have been for years.” Willow said with a slightly glazed look to her eyes.Xander sighed happy that his powers worked he moved on to something a little harder.“Jenny I know this will be hard but I need you to tell me who you really are.” Xander said as he looked into her eyes.Jenny tried to fight it and it showed on her face. “M-my name is Janna Kalderash, of the Clan Kalderash, I was sent to Sunnydale to watch over the vampire Angelus now known as Angel to make sure the curse my clan placed upon him stays.” Janna said with tears beginning to leak from her eyes.Xander saw the surprise on Angels face but what he focused on was Buffy as she fought hard to try to get free of him.“SLAYER SUMMERS RESTRAIN YOURSELF AND LET THE WOMAN SPEAK!” Xander was happy to see Buffy calm herself, and he looked back to Janna. “Now I know that was tough Janna but please tell us more.” Xander said calmly to her.Janna sniffled a little the continued. “My Clan’s Elder woman had a vision long ago and she called me to her and told me I was needed on the mouth of hell. She told me that due to the egos of our past leaders the curse on Angel had a chance to break.” Janna ignored the gasp that came from Angel. “So she sent me here with a copy of the curse, I can’t translate it from the original Romany. But more important is what she said to me after, she told me that the curse is of the darkest magick and that to cast it alone is to sentence oneself to death.” Janna stopped as Xander asked her to.Xander stopped her there as her addressed them all. “Now I have known of Jenny or Janna for a while now ever since our talks and its one of the reasons why we are so close. And I must say that I agree with her, while lying sucks sometime she had her reasons and I applaud her. Now Janna do you hold any ill intentions towards this group or anyone in it?” Xander asked.“NO! I could never do that, you all are my friends and while I hate Angelus I have nothing against Angel except for wryness for him being a vampire.” Janna looked angry that he would ask her that.Xander looked around the group and saw that while Buffy, Willow, and Giles looked a little mad the others didn’t seem to care, so he moved on.“Buffy now it is your turn. Did you really choose to throw away your life when you went to the Master’s cave last year?” Xander asked.Xander would normally feel bad when he saw the scared and shocked look on Buffy’s face but he pushed on and added more power to his voice. “ANSWER ME SLAYER.”Buffy tried her hardest to fight him but in the end…she lost. “Yes I did, I was tired of fighting and I wanted him to kill me.” Buffy said with her head down.The room was silent when she finished, and while Xander guessed this he kept on going. “Do you know who brought you back from death that night?” Xander asked.Buffy kept her head to the floor as she answered. “Y-yes I do, it was….///////////////////////////////End of Chapter 5///////////////////////////////////////////////////
