Damn, didn't know you were still writing. It's been a while since I've seen anything from you. Interesting storyline. I somehow doubt Xander is going to simply sit back and let things play out as they did. A preemptive staking of Angel? I look forward to anything else that comes from this.

Slowly but surely. It's been a rough fifteen months, not just emotionally but financially and physically.

whoa now you have my interest. and i can see xander like that, all his friends are dead thanks to putting so much blind faith into a bunch of beings who work for the so-called greater good of man kind, he lost his bother in every way but blood to their plans, he was forced to part with the love of his life because one of the powers went rouge and needed her to become her vessel. no wonder he became a bitter old man that would make cotton hill look like a pussy.

Thanks.
Less Cotton Hill and more Clint Eastwood's 'get off my lawn' meets the old James Ryan from Saving Private Ryan.

That was kind of brief, and not a lot of info, but from what I'm getting the PTB doesn't want Xander coming their way and he's a white hat who doesn't deserve to go to Hell. Even if he did, Xander makes them nervous too. So Xander is going to get a rewind. That will be cool, as long as he gets to fix some things that went wrong the first time around. I'll be tracking just in case the story is continued.
Comments from author:
Yeah, it was brief, didn't want to over-analyze it simply because that's how my stories tend to go down the crapper in the first chapter (and most of them never get posted, either).
Xander's rewind isn't going to be all peaches, kittens and roses. The last time sucked. This time might suck in different ways. Only time will tell.
Thanks.

interesting beginning, rough way for Xander to spend his last days though. Hope you decide to do something with this, I'd be interested in following along.

Thanks. yes, rough way to spend his last few days (using personal experience at seeing it; brings back a lot of bad memories I've spent the past fifteen months trying to work past), but now he can have fun. Hopefully. Maybe.
...
Given his luck, he should probably know better than to be too hopeful.
