Part One

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The wind blew through the darkly moonlit sunnydale cemetary, Where the corpses of the young, out number the corpses of the old.... The Sunnydale cemetary is the ultimate reminder of young lives snuffed out, lifes that were never fufilled, dreams that were forever crushed, .. all in all a more than average depressing area. Every Sunnydale parent's worst feared place.

This night there are 3 freshly buried corpses, (and This is on a good night!) all three, teens laid to rest, be it a suicide, a murder and an accident, These three will forever have their remains stuck in this dreaded place... But something strange is happening this night. A milky white subtance oozes across the grassy cemetary grounds... it slithers its way towards a burial plot, it's skin is higlighted by the moon's glaze, shimmering, giving off an eerie ambiance. The alien-like substance quickly crept its way down one of the three freshly made graves, oozing by the mounds of dirt, the worms, and the thick marble coffin , to its new found remnants. A few seconds later... the burial grounds foundation shook violently, the earth suddenly exploded... as a single fist rose from the ground.

The next day, A half asleep Xander harris stumbled into his first period class. Willow Rosenberg cracked a smile towards Xander, laughing, finding his clumsiness funny, yet what had made him so adorable to her. Buffy Summers just sat in her desk staring at the bewildered Xander.

"Yes ladies", Xander said in a stern tone," I am the the picture of chivalry!"

"Is that why your shirt is on backwards?" muttered a giggling Buffy.

Xander took a quick look a his shirt, indeed inside out, due to the fact that he was blindly awoken this morning to scramble and put on any clothes nearest to him. "What can I say?" Xander said in a superior tone," I'm a trend setter!"

Willow rolled her eyes, knowing that He was obviously trying to save face, or what was little left of it.

"Ahem!" The physics teacher grumbled," Well, look here!We have class to attend to? Do you Mr. Harris?"

Xander didn't answer back, He knew if he'd make another snide comment it would be instant Detention for him, so he quickly darted to his seat.

It was free period time now, Buffy, Xander and Willow, went to their usual hang out place near the school's fountain.

"So Xander", Buffy asked," What was with the zombie routine this morning?"

Xander rubbed his eyes," No I just couldn't sleep last night... That's all."

"That's it?" Willow said wanting to know more.

"Thaaaat's it", he said in monotone voice.

All of the sudden Xander glanced towards the figure walking towards him. Buffy noticed Xander's quick hypnotized state towards the individual.

"You know this guy?" Buffy asked Xander.

"Yeah, well I used to, He and I were good friends for a while as freshmen, then we.. just stopped talking, saying hello to eachother, yadda, yadda, yadda," Xander muttered with reflection." Man, I haven't even seen him around school for a while." Xander stood up, stood eye to eye to this guy.

"Hey, .. . How's it going Victor?" Xander mumbled, unsure what kind of answer he would receive.

"Finally a name", Buffy thought to herself.

Willow just sat there, she Hadn't even known this Victor, and she has been friends with Xander for the longest time, ." I wonder if he was such good friends with Me why didn't he introduce me to this Victor guy?" Willow questioned herself. Even Xander had introduced Jesse to her.

Victor squinted his eyes, faced Xander and bellowed," Long time no talk , Dude!"

Xander smiled," What happened to us man?I thought we were good friends!"

"We were, and still are, I just had some personal problems, I had shut myself off to everyone, I am so sorry if I was a jerk to you." Victor said in an endearing tone.

Xander was delighted at the thought that he might regain his friendship with Victor.

"Hey Vic" said Xander

"Yeah?"

"I want you to meet the two lovley ladies in my life..."

"These two jewels that sit besides you? What drugs do you have them hooked on for them to be hanging out with you?"BVictor said coyly.

Buffy made a polite smirk.

That is why Xander had become fast friends with victor, Victor was as big a smart ass as he is.

Xander pointed to His favorite gal pal," This is Willow, my best bud" Willow realized what Xander had just said, Grimaced then politely smiled as she shook Victor's hand.

"Nice to meet ya'", Victor gave her delicate hand a gentle shake.

"And this, my other good friend here...", Xander aimed both his hands towards Buffy as he kept staring at Victor," Is Buffy.

"Hello", Buffy gave a polite little wave.

"Hi", Victor blinked, then rubbed his eyes.

For that Quick second when Victor blinked, she noticed his eyes had turned a milky white substance, and then turned back to normal when he had rubbed his eyes. Buffy knew she hadn't seen Victor's eyes roll back, they were just transparent.

Victor turned to Xander," Hey man, it's been a long time, you think we can catch up?"

"Sure", Xander said with an overjoyed tone in his voice. Xander excused himself from Willow and Buffy.

As Xander and Victor walked away, chattering... Bufy kept her jaw open. What had she just seen?

Willow tapped Buffy on the shoulder. "Earth to Slayer", Willow impatiently said.

As Victor turned his head towards Buffy as he and Xander were still walking away he blinked towards her. Buffy looked at him, He blinked.. . his eyes were gone again. Victor smiled, turned his view back towards Xander.

Buffy stared at them from a distance.
