A Different Life

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Bleach. Sorry, but I don’t. Their respective owners own them. I do own the plot though.

Title: Thoughts, Plans and Clothes
Rating: Again, somewhere PG 13 and R for smutty thoughts and language.
THANKS GOES TO : my wonderful betas kellymutt and Sajah.
FD/Dark Kitsune/ ect.: Yes, another chapter, and so soon after the last one! I see those looks you are giving me, don’t think I don’t. –bites the candy bar, chews giving the reviewers a pout- Don’t need to be so damn shocked. I told you that I was going to be putting another 2 chapters as soon as my betas returned them to me.
Now, the next chapter is going to have smut. Not any actual sex, just a hand job, some fingering, and then a blow job. Warning: I don’t care if you don’t like sex scenes. If you read it and you don’t like then you tell me that you don’t like, I will shoot you. Got it? Yes? Good. Any smut will have a small warning (and I do mean small) warning about it.
For those sites that this has been posted on that do not allow smut like I write, I will be nice and leave you a link to get to said smut!
Anyways, enough about the next chapter. I was going to do something else with this chapter, but it went another direction, so I just went with it and it turned out to be pretty good. Now I have to figure out where it will be going. Hum…-wanders away to think about it.-
Enchantress: Hi. I’m Faes muse. I once was a character, in fact I still am, but I have since become a muse for here. Anyways, seeing as this is my first appearance for most of the places that this story is posted, hi and I hate humans. I’m not human. Fae isn’t quite sure as to what to name me. Oh well.
Anyways, she’s off to create the next chapter. She’s on a role. Anyways, she hopes you enjoy this chapter and will see you next chapter.

“Well, shit.”

$$$$$$$$$$$$
I snicker at that, and trying to keep it quiet so as not to piss him off, which would upset him even more. I listen to Xander say something rapidly in Japanese. The wolf growls as I hear the affection for the person that he’s speaking to. At least until I hear the name Issen, which calms the wolf down, knowing that it’s his uncle that he is speaking with.
Coming back, his voice when he speaks is tight and upset, “So you’re telling me that I have to come back just after I left because Buffy wanted to get some and Willow is power hungry?” he practically growls out.
Sighing, I answer, “You don’t have to if you don’t want to. We can come to you if you want. We just need to get away from here, and fast,” I reply, getting up and grabbing my computer, going to the airport site to find out when the earliest flight to Japan was, and how much it would end up costing. Maybe, they would be able to get the Watchers to give them a jet to get there so they didn’t have to ship their stuff.
Absently listening over the line to a phone going off, then some low Japanese, then higher toned Japanese, I find out when the earliest flight is and how much it would cost. Just as I start to hunt down how much it would cost Giles and I to send our stuff over to Japan, Xander speaks again, “Yeah. How about you do that? I’ll talk to someone about watching those two. Also, don’t worry about getting here by plane. Some allies of the Demon Hunters have offered to open a portal tonight, your time. That means you two have exactly 6 hours until we get there. Get your school records, and in Giles case, a recommendation, pack your stuff, shrink it, and meet me at the park. Make sure that Buffy and Willow don’t have anything of yours. I’ll be doing the same thing here, but with a spell. Anything they have that belongs to you will be transported here. I’ll figure out where you guys will be staying until you guys find a place." I can hear him scribble something down.
“Alright, I hope you guys know you are going to end up having to wear an earring or something so that you can speak and understand Japanese, at least until you guys start to pick it up. I will be there with the people who are to meet you. Leave your cars with my parents. Be safe,” he says, making my wolf growl happily at hearing the beta tell me to be safe.
“I will,” I reply, shutting my computer down, packing it into its case, as I hang up the phone after a quick goodbye. I then start running around and grabbing my suitcases to start to pack my stuff, already planning on finding some boxes for the various books and magical items hidden around my apartment. Ah, the joys of living alone. Remembering to call Giles, I grab the phone and dial his number from memory.
It only takes a few rings before he answers.

@@@@@@@@@@
“Yes,” I ask, after answering the phone, breaking my concentration on the search to find a spell or something to block Willow's magic, give Angel's soul back control while merging the two together, and a way to, hopefully, beat some sense into Buffy.
“Giles, pack your stuff. We have less than six hours to pack our stuff, for you to get a recommendation, for me to get my school records, to drop off our cars with Xander's parents, to get anything we can back from Buffy and Willow, and to get to the park. Xander has set up something for us to get to Japan without a plane, but we need to meet him and some other people at the park. Oh, and Buffy and Willow cannot know about this,” I hear Oz say, obviously out of breath, slightly muffled and on the move.
“Let me get this straight. Xander has offered us protection against Angelus, Buffy, and Willow, but we have less than 6 hours to get everything done so that we can get to the park and leave. Did I get that straight?” I ask, shock evident in my voice, even as I used a simple floating spell to place all my books into specialized chests, along with various nick knacks and other items I wished to take with me. Hearing the slightly breathless
"Yes", I sigh and tell him I will see him in a few hours with his school records, some chests to store the books and magical items, and to be prepared to confront Willow and Buffy. I hung up the phone and quickly finished my inventory and the packing of all of my books and magical items.
Noting that I have several items and three books missing, I start to plan on how to get them back. Heading up the stairs again, the phone rings, making me groan, but I go down and answer the phone.
“Oh, Giles, I almost forgot, Xander will be doing a spell to get anything of ours that Buffy or Willow have, so we really don’t have to worry about it. Don’t forget to write a letter to the two idiots,” Oz says quickly.
“Alright,” is all I am able to get out before he hangs up on me again. Shaking my head, I head back upstairs and start to pack everything there, shrinking things as I go, knowing that it wasn’t going to be pretty once those two found out about this.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hanging up the phone, I turn around and smile at Byakuya for telling me what his superior had set up. Now, I just want to know how the man knew about our problems.
“Okay, first off, thank your superior for setting everything up. Second of all, how the hell did he know about this,” I ask, my voice low, unsure. I don’t know why they bring the shyness out in me, but it’s rather interesting. It's like I feel I should be shy and quiet in their presence. The only time my personality has taken a 360 like this was when I first meet Willow, then Jesse, then Buffy. I went from shy boy to funny guy with Willow, from funny guy to best buds when we added Jesse into the mix, then back to funny guy with a dash of Zeppo tossed in when Buffy came into my life. Now, I’m the shy little boy who I was once, oh so long ago. But, why now? I shake my head to clear out the thoughts. I notice that they are looking at me. I blush at all the attention I am getting and say the only thing I can say, “What?” Renji snickers behind his hand, Byakuya sighs in a distinctly “why me?” manner, Kenpachi smirks at me, and Shunsui just shakes his head.
“I said, I will tell him, and as to how he knows this, he has people watching what is going on in Sunnydale. I did not know this, but apparently they knew that the group was there, and that there was a demon hunter family, but didn’t know who they were. That’s how he knew that eventually at least a couple of people in your group would have to leave and go somewhere else. When that happened, we would have stepped in and offered you a place to stay,” Byakuya says. I smile at him and nod.
‘Now, to find Giles and Oz a place to stay. Then figure out a way to give control back to Angel, so that Angel and Angelus could merge properly,’ I think to myself.
“If you need help we can help you find the spell that will give the soul control while the two merge,” Renji says. I blink at him in confusion, wondering if he could read my mind, then it dawns on me that I had spoken aloud. I blush in response, unaware of what the four in front of me are thinking each time I blush.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
‘Yum. If he blushes any more I’ll have to grab Byakuya and find a room and disappear into it for a few hours. Shit, he did it again! How am I supposed to walk, let alone think now?’

&&&&&&&&&&
‘Now that’s something that I like seeing. He is going to make a great bottom slut for the right guy. I wonder if Shunsui is going to collar him. You know, I can just imagine that blush on Ichigo. Of course that blush won’t be from embarrassment. It’ll be from arousal as I take him, making him scream. I just know he’s a screamer. Damn, now I need to think cold thoughts.’

###########
‘He’s cute. Very cute for that matter. I wonder how long before Renji breaks and drags me into a room. Kenpachi is looking slightly glazed there. More than likely thinking about screwing someone senseless. Shunsui. . .hum. He’s staring at Xander with such interest. Ah, there goes Xander-san and his blushing again.’

%%%%%%%%%%%%
‘I wonder how many times he can blush before he passes out from the blood rush. I also wonder how he would look with a blush of arousal, and not one of embarrassment. Now, see, there goes my smutty thoughts again. I really need to stop thinking such things, otherwise I will never be able to walk properly. Really, you would think I could control my body and thoughts better, but no, not around this pretty boy. Ah, shit, he just blushed again!!’

*----------------------------*
‘What are they all looking at?’ Xander thinks to himself, noticing that they are all staring at him. Starting to feel uncomfortable with all the attention, he smiles rather nervously at them, moving into the kitchen to make lunch for all of them before anything happens.
Stopping to look at the appointment book, he sees that his uncle has only two appointments that day, and then would be open for those who called, but no walk-ins, due to the shipment of medical supplies that they would be receiving right after the last appointment. Making a mental note to tell his uncle that his friends were coming to Japan and that they would be coming via a portal, he goes into the kitchen, pulling out fruit, lettuce, hamburger, onion, tomato, ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, and buns, he sets about making hamburgers with a side of chips for lunch and fruit salad with whip cream for dessert, also remembering that Karin and Yuzu were to have a half day due to the school doing its monthly fumigation.
Making hamburger patties after seasoning the meat lightly with some salt and pepper, he places them on the little table grills that his uncle had bought for the nights that they wanted something that wasn’t part of the normal Japanese diet, and for when he was there.
“Good thing that uncle bought more than one,” he mummers to himself as he closes the tops on the grills, setting a timer to go off when they were done. Hearing that the four were talking quietly in the living room, he turns on the portable CD player on and puts his favorite CD on. Soon enough, H.I.M. is playing one of his favorite songs: And Love Said No. Had to love it.
Absently listening to the song as he sliced the tomato, onion and lettuce, then the fruit, forgetting about the world for just a little bit. Meanwhile, as he cooks for everyone, the four Shinigamis are discussing where to stash Xander's two friends.
“I don’t suppose that Urahara would take them in would he?” Kenpachi asks, looking decidedly bored with everything happening around him. Byakuya looked thoughtful at that suggestion while Renji seemed doubtful.
“Well, Urahara might not do it, just to piss us off. You know he isn’t too happy with most Shinigamis. What do you think, Shunsui?” Renji asks, looking at the dark haired man. Shunsui looks thoughtful, as if trying to figure something out. “I have a feeling he’ll do it, but only for Xander-san and only because he is so pretty. You know how Urahara always had a weakness for the pretty ones. Now, all we have to do is convince Xander-san to turn the cute factor up and turn it onto Urahara. Shouldn’t be too hard, as long as Urahara is able to keep his hands to himself so that Issen-sama doesn’t remove them forcefully,” Shunsui says, sounding as if he is musing. Byakuya nods his head, “That, as unsavory as it sounds, is a good idea. We need to place them somewhere where they will be protected and they won’t have to worry about random attacks from Issen. We will talk to Xander-san now, and let him consider it,” he says, standing up and walking towards the kitchen where he can hear someone sing about wings of a butterfly and ripping them off.The other three get up and follow him. Walking into the kitchen they are greeted with the site of Xander bouncing around setting the table with plates, cups and napkins. They watch as he places hamburgers down in the middle, fresh and hot, along with tomatoes, onions, the condiments, 3 different bags of chips and a pitcher full of something that looked like iced tea.
“Xander-san, we need to speak with you,” Byakuya says the moment that everything was out of Xander's hands. Xander jumps and whirls around to face them, holding the area above his heart.
“Jeez, scare a guy into an early grave why don’t you! What do you guys need to talk to be about?” he asks as he finishes cleaning things up and putting the fruit salad into the refrigerator, letting it cool. “And I suggest you hurry up. Karin and Yuzu are heading up the walk way and my uncle is coming on back.” Byakuya sits down in a chair and the other three follow his example. “Xander-san, we were hoping that you would be cute at Urahara so your friends could stay there. That way they won’t be randomly attacked by your uncle, they can be watched over and if necessary protected. So, can you do it?” Renji asks, trying his hand at a pair of puppy eyes. Xander just giggles at him, making them stare, seeing as how they have never heard such a sound from him.
“Alright. I can do that. Just let me change before we go. I don’t want to look like I’m a rag-a-muffin. Alright with you guys?” Xander asks as he stands up and starts to fill the glasses. They nod just as Issen walks in.
"What’s alright?” he asks as he sits down. Karin and Yuzu walk in right after him and sit down also.
Xander places a burger on each of their plates before answering, “I have to go be cute at Urahara so that he’ll let Oz and Giles stay at the store. Apparently Angel got some with Buffy, so now Oz and Giles need to hide from him. And Willow is trying to make me go back as a good little puppet, but I don’t want to. So Oz and Giles are coming here. Wanna go with us to find out if Urahara will let them stay?” he asks as he makes his own burger. Issen nods, putting his burger down, before grabbing Xander, who was mid bite, in a hug, “OF COURSE I WILL GO MY DEAR NEPHEW! I WILL NOT LET THAT HORNY SON-OF-A-BITCH TRY FOR YOUR VIRGINITY! I WILL PROTECT IT UNTIL YOU FIND YOUR SOUL MATE!” Issen yells, making Xander blush bright crimson from his hair line and to down just below his neck line. His head falls into his hands, and they can hear a groan of embarrassment leaks out between his fingers.
“Uncle Issen! Do be quiet and sit down and eat so we can go,” he says, peeking out between his fingers. Issen nods, gives Xander another hug, before he let go and sat back down to eat. During the rest of the lunch they all made small talk, eating, drinking what they found out was peach tea that Xander had made last night with Yuzu. Making final plans on what to do at Uraharas and how to play it.
Xander blushes at some of the tales that was told about the man and how he would flirt with anything that was pretty, walked on two legs and was willing to give him the time of day, which was apparently quite a few of the people he hit on. Finally Xander heads up to his room, he gets ready to go to Uraharas and get him to let Oz and Giles stay there until the problems that had popped up were fixed. Walking down the stairs a few moments’ later, he makes walking hard for the four Shinigamis. He was wearing a pair of well worn jeans, that looked to be white washed with rips in the knees, they looked as if they had been painted on him. The shirt he chosen to wear was loose, blue and hung to just below his mid-thigh, while the sleeves came to a rest just on his knuckles, making him look like a child playing dress up with his daddy's clothes. Plain white sneakers adorn his feet. His hair wasn’t just pulled back, it was in a partial bun with the rest falling down to the middle of his shoulder blades with a few pieces of hair falling down around his face, framing it, making focusing attention on his eyes, which he’d lightly lined with a smoky gray eye liner, making his eyes a little more like melted chocolate, instead of just chocolate. Cocking his head when he notices that everyone is looking at him with differing looks upon their faces.
“What?” he asks, wondering if he had dressed appropriately. “Should I change?” he finally asks, after a few minutes of standing there, shifting uncomfortably. “No, don’t worry about it, Xander,” Issen says, shaking his head. Karin and Yuzu just shake their heads at the incredible naivety that their cousin shows. Xander just blinks, looking for all the world like a confused puppy.
“Let’s get going. I want to finish this,” Renji says, walking towards the door, opening it up. Stopping he turns around and glares at Kenpachi, “You stay here. We don’t need you and Urahara in the same building. You alone are dangerous, both of you in the same building is deadly. So stay, wait for Ichigo. Tell him where we are, and what is happening,” he says, getting a smirk in reply. Rolling his eyes, Renji walks out the door and down the street, everyone following behind him.
Shutting the door, Kenpachi sits to wait for Ichigo. Soon his thoughts start to turn to why Ichigo's energy was spiking like it was, and what it could mean. Finally figuring it out, he gets up, walking out the door, making sure that it was locked behind him. Running towards Ichigos school, he sits in a tree and waits for Ichigo to get out of the school, not having to wait for very long.

Okay, this is the end of this chapter. I hope you liked it, and will review it. Thanks for reading!
