I find it really hard to believe that the star sapphires represent love unless its a twisted corrupt love. Especially after reading the part where the guardian tell dawn how they are willing to "enslave" members into their ranks.
Good idea in theory, but let down by two crucial factors; 1. Drusilla restoring Angel's humanity had SOME potential, but the fact that you just ignored any reference to it in the aftermath let that down. 2. All that stuff about Xander being able to control multiple emotional spectrums is giving him WAY too much credit...

Sad that Xander Died. (Or Did He, Drusilla is a seer, and she saw the return of her Kitten, so......) But he died the way he would have wanted protect the ones he loved. In the vastness of the DC Universe, there are many ways for him to return. So cheers to the White Knight, he's to good to stay dead under the circumstances.
Peace

Ion-Embodiment of Willpower Parallax-Embodiment of Fear
If those two emotions have an embodiment, it would only be logical for the other five to have them as well. Both Parallax and Ion were kept in the Oan Central Battery. With the Zamarons accumulating the violet energy of love in their Central Battery, it would only be logical again for a similar entity such as Parallax and Ion to exist there as well. Xander just happened to be the unlucky idiot to get thrown into the Central Battery.

Review of chapter "Origins, Part One" from BlueEyedJedi
Review:
Since I first read of him, I have Hated the character Mongul. To my knowledge he has never completely, utterly defeated. He has failed to succeed in his plans, but he has never been decimated, broken, or had a decimating defeat. I'm Glad that he will now. Now that the Queen and Dawn are safe, some of the Star Sapphires come come back to help. Carol Ferris before her return to the light was a devastatingly ruthless foe, who given the incentive of protecting those she cares about, could give Xander a match in ruthless ferocity, upon their mutual foe Mongul. As I previously stated I really don't like Mongul.
So the JLA has discovered Sunnydale, Hmm, I suspect things will get more difficult for the big bads who come to town.
Great story, it's amazing how in just a few chapters, concepts can be changed, refined, made fresh, and new. I anxiously await each new chapter.
Peace

Interesting chapter, though the story seems like it'll be too short. Is the any chance you'll be doing a sequel to this? Please do your best to add more soon.

My argument mate would be Angel feels guilt for Angelus' crimes because his body committed those acts. HOWEVER, without his soul he's a completely different person, and unable to control what he does (at least until Noxon ret-conned that in Season sux).
Angelus should have been killed the moment he rose.
However Angel isn't Angelus. Don't get me wrong, there's plenty to bash Angel for, his entire Sunnydale conduct is suspect, the way he comes onto Buffy, the way he only appears to do good to impress her.
But Angelus and Angel are two entirely different people.

I have a few problems with the relative harshness on Angel, yes he's a jerk but blaming him for Angelus' crimes as you almost do is a little harsh. However I do like your outlook on Ms. Summers and suspect this story is going to involve far more of Sunnydale than just the Scoobies, and stories like that can often be interesting, so kudos for that. Look forward to more.

Question, if Angel is not to blame for the crimes of Angelus, then why does Angel himself try to atone for said crimes?
