I really loved this story and keep hoping to see a sequel. Puh-lease???

I'm glad you enjoyed! Oddly, all summer ... no ideas. Now that school's about to start back up? ::sigh:: Hopefully, I'll have something soon. Thanks for the review!

Very nice, I am glad I took the time to check out your other stories after I read "Xander's Labyrinth."

Is there any chance of a true sequel for this or are the Dawn and Miami shorts going to be it?

I've been attempting another installment - it's been so much fun - and there's so much potential chaos to play around with. I think I've got the problem of too many ideas! ::grin:: Thanks for the review!

most excellent

I just re-read this story after reading Mirror Shards:Miami. This is a really interesting story. It is fascinating that Xander has what amounts to multiple personalities, and yet he manages to be a basically sane and functioning person. Each of his personalities gives him something that makes him a whole, and potentially dangerous, person. Seven year old Alex is the innocense and compassion that has stubbornly survived despite everything that he has gone through. The hyena is his stregnth and protective loyalty (pack,cub). The Cheshire cat is his cunning and wisdom. The Jabberwok is Xander's rage and fury, that when controlled, makes him a force to be reckoned with. If it were unleashed he would be deadly. The mob guy Frocetti was thinking of Xander as his 'boy'. The fact that he was so possessive means that he would still be on the fringes of Xander's life until he decided to make a move. Also, just the fact that Frocetti asked around about Xander brought all of that kidnapping craziness into Xander's life. Who knows what else could happen. Especially since Xander has caught the interest of the Las Vegas and Miami CSI officers. Frocetti is a criminal, so that could bring in all sorts of chaos. Speaking of chaos, a one handed Ethan is wandering around somewhere. Is there any chance of further continuation of this story? I would love to learn Xander's explanation of himself. I'd like to know how Giles, all of the girls, and Joyce would react to all of his situation. I would also like to know how this might impact Dawn since she has the remains of Alice in her. I'll keep an eye out just in case you decide to continue. But, I really did enjoy this first story.

::Nealy hyperventilating in awe.:: OMG. I've never received such a terrific, lengthy, or detailed review before in my life! Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. I'm definitely going to save this down and see what I can do to satisfy your curiosity.

Humn... I went from not too sure what I wanted to write next, to having a few ideas. Double thanks! ::grin::

I do have two other stories in the series that I hope you'll be able to read soon.

Thanks again!

Great story! I like the way Xander's multiple personalities tied into the story. And the use of mirrors against the villans was awesome. I'd love to see more of this universe you've created.

Glad you liked it! I've got another one in the works. I'm really hoping to have it out in the next week or two.

Are you going to add another to the series?

I have a third story nearly finished - I just need to recheck it for ... well ... inconsistencies and such. Should be up in another few weeks. Thanks for asking! ::grin::

This was pretty awesome. I liked how the length of the chapters varied. Sometimes a short chapter goes a long way.

I looove this story! @

Simply wonderful! *huge grin* My absolute favorite character in that game was Chesire Cat, he is simply so awesome, which makes this fic awesome as well.

Truly great stuff. Thanks for the great read.

I love this story. Very interesting and well written. I really do hope you will write a sequel. I want to know how the others react to what Xander tells them and how them knowing the truth changes the groups dynamics.

Hope to see more soon.

Amazing fic
Using the Jabberwocky was brilliant
Looking forward to more of this
Xander is a favorite character and having more Dawn, Dru and Giles is a real plus.
As is a dusted Spike
More Joyce would be great too
Thanks

Great story, please keep the side stories coming!

This is a Fantastic story. I love the way that you did things in it.

More please. I love the way you wrote this. Is Dawn going to get anything of Alice back? A sequel would be awesome!!!

Love ya

Since so many of you have asked so nicely (and boy was I floored by all the positive feedback - it had me glowing with pleased embarrassment), I am currently working on some side stories to try to fill in any gaps. Dawn's story will be first. I'll try to get it out as soon as RL will let me.

Thanks again for all the support! It means a great deal to me!

Great story! I like Xander with multiple personalities and you pulled it off well. The Cheshire Cat as Halloween costume was inspired. Any plans for a sequel?
