Author: Emelye
Rating: G
Word Count: 100
Prompt: Flight
Characters/Pairing: Xander, Buffy

There was nothing Buffy couldn’t do. The central tenant of Xander’s life. She couldn’t be kept down, couldn’t be defeated. School, boyfriends, demons, Watchers, vamps, magic, nothing could diminish her. Buffy couldn’t be broken. When Xander felt like he was going to shatter into a million pieces, that thought kept him together through situations that should have had him pissing himself in fear.

So Buffy couldn’t be dead. That obscene fall from the tower was just...wrong. It just wasn’t possible.

Every night Xander dreams.

Buffy steps to the edge of the platform, spreads her arms, and takes flight.
