Xander's Ladies of Might

It is Halloween Day... Dawnie is going to have a Halloween party at Giles' pad.
Xander had no costume to wear, except his old pirates uniform that was torned to shreds by a crazed, deranged vampire that Tara had to staked in order to save his life, again, as it tried to choke Xander's life away instead of sucking on his blood.

The Scoobies; Buffy, Willow, Faith & Xander, decided to wander around Sunnydale, looking for any available halloween costume store that will fit their likes & needs.

After wasting a hour walking to the various very crowded costume hack stores full of fellow bored teenagers and screaming parents & screeching kids, Xander decides to take them to an out of a way commerical strip off the beaten path & to see if any new costume store is available that neither he nor the gals were aware that had opened up for this season ...

As Xander & his fellow Scoobies turned down into a less-travelled walkway, he sees a very blacken facade of a halloween costume store that he never seen before...

"Ye Olde Magicks
Masquerade Fabrics Post"

"That's a very old fashion hanging post with a very interesting name plate." -Thought Xander as he gestures to his lady friends to follow him to this recently found boon.

"Hmmmm... why am I getting this weird, tingly sensation ..." -ponders Willow as they get nearer to the store.
She eyes the building and wonders why there is a misty cloud that seems to cling around the blackened, wooden costume store.

"Buffy, Faith, does any of your spidey senses sense anything out of the ordinary with this costume store?" -inquired a now very curious Willow.

"Nope, but I see lots of cloths racks inside the store with lots of costumes." -stated Buffy as they get closer with Xander already opening the door for the ladies to enter the domain.

"Not really but the special effects with the mist seems nice." -Faith replied as she likewise eyes a variety of costumes within the shop.

"Well... I think I'll magick up some -" Willow's reply was cut off as Xander gushes rapidly for the friends to hurry up.

"Come on! Let's get inside, Look at the stuff they got! I see a coupla of Batman costumes I want to check out. Hurry up, Willow!" -exclaimed Xander as he tugged Willow inside the store and she sees what Xander was gestering at.

=Unknown to them, it is a magical halloween costume store in which any wearer of any particular costume will get whatever gifts & enhancements from any costume that they purchase and they will keep those powers until they return the costume back to the store before it disappears to another town and those 'gifts' will be the wearers' permanentaly, regardless of either wearing the costumes or not, until they can return the uniforms back to the store whenever it re-appears...
They all enter the store and check out the costumes...=

All four Scoobies cross inside and see the proprietor at the register and no-one else. The lady behind the register calls out...

"Welcome, welcome... hale into my establishment of embellishments & dreams." -replied the lady in red.

"See my goods and wares... they are of an excellent quality and very well maintained. They are of the finest material & will last you a very long lifetime." - smiles the beauty.

Xander rushes toward the Batman rack while the rest of the ladies walk towards the other costume racks, with Willow peering toward the lady with a curious feelings toward her & the building in general...

Buffy goes and checks out the Supergirl costume racks and picks one that she had recall reading from Xander's stash of comicbooks in where the second version of the Supergirl series had a 'normal' Linda Lee Danvers whom had merged with a 'Matrix Supergirl', became an Earth Angel and later on finally wears a White top S symbol Blouse that shows a girl's midriff and a short blue tight skirt with the heavily laced Red Boots...

-Gack! Xander has made me into a Comicbook Geek! -thought Buffy disgustly.

Buffy decides not to wear the newer Supergirl uniform of the third version since it is too skimpy and not too pleasing to her slayer figure ...

Willow, still concern, walks toward a row of costumes and sees a Mary Marvel uniform that is black with the Shazam Lightning symbol emblazed on it but with no cape as part of its ensemble and decides to picks this one over the original one that had looked too much like a toga & she wasn't too keen on the too white or bright red colors & both had that silly roped cape that looked ... too damn bulky & clingy for her neck.

Faith sees a Wonder Woman costume that had faintly reminded her of what Lynda Carter had made famous in the 1970s and decides to wear that one in lieu of the newer version that would show more curves that her slayer figure wouldn't be able to show.

Xander pulls one Batman costume version after another off the rack until he finally sees the newest Batman Costume that he had seen from the latest Movie that's out that had the infamous utility belt & extra tech accouterments and gets that...

All four tries out their outfits in the store's dressing room and instantly likes what they are wearing & sees that their respective picks are very pleasing to their eyes.

As all four walk out and towards to the register, the Lady in Red starts talking to them...

"I see that you have made your picks and are ready to make your purchases... Do you younglings like to rent them for a day or do you want to keep them forever." -inquired her gently.

"I'll Buy it permanently." -gushes Xander.

"Yeah, I'll keep my costume." -replied both Faith & Buffy together.

"I like my pick. I think I'll buy it." -stated Willow but she still has some sense that something is off.

"Ahhhh, I See... Be forewarn... If you do decide to return it, please return it within twenty-four hours. I shall still be here the next morn until then. But since Thou hast decided to keep them .... well then." -She pauses for effect.

"otherwise, the costumes and any gifts bestow upon thee shall be permanent until thee returns them to me on this very day and nigh of next Halloween Day." - replied the ever enigmatic lady in red.

All four scoobies smiles at her statement and gets online at her register and pays for their own individual costumes and plans to keep on wearing them for now in order to show them off as they walk back to Giles' pad.

"Bye, now, youngsters, be happy with thy purchases and be ware, the gifts are permanent until my return of my shop on halloween day." -She bids them farewell as all walk out of her store of dreams.

As they walk out into the street... they start noticing that their bodies are changing and they are wondering what the heck is happening to them...

They also wonder why their costumed uniform(s) were hugging their bodies and then wonder why they were feeling slightly funny...

"Xander, what's wrong with us, I'm feeling weird'-out!" -replied a slightly dizzy Buffy.

"xander, what's happening to us? Is this one of your constant goof-ups again?!" -shouted Faith as she feels more off-centered with her weight shifting her in her shoes.

"Xander, let's turn back and talk with that lady and see what sort of 'gifts' that she was referring to.." -stated a concern Willow as she likewise felt ... bigger?! What's wrong with my body?! What is this costume doing to me?!!

"OK! Let's turn around and ... oh, oh..." -replied Xander as all four turn around...

They turn around to go back to the costume store when they see the store slowly fading away... the Lady in Red waving goodbye...

Willow suddenly realized that it was the infamous 'magical' costume store that allows its' wearers of its uniforms to become whomever they are disguised as...

All Four Scoobies check their bodies and noticed that they have become, taller, feeling stronger, more shapely, their muscles accentuated and their individual figures still ever so slighty changing...

All Three ladies realize that not only are they taller but that their busts size are bigger and that their figures are more... shapely and highly contoured...

Xander also realized that he is not only taller, but that he is also more bulked up and physically muscled all-around...

The ladies are slowly getting annoy with the fact that Xander had inadventantly picked a store that they can no longer go back to get themselves back to normal...

They sense that their original slayer & witch powers are still there but that they are now really Supergirl, Mary Marvel & Wonder Woman, respectively...

They see Xander & noticed that he looks physically more enhanced but are too pissed at him and begins to walk toward him.

Xander is pleased that he really has Batman's physical attributes and notices that the three ladies are now heading toward him and that they look HOT! in their costumes.

He also notices that all three look very, VERY annoy with him and are glaring at him in an unfriendly manner...

"Xander, you YEEOOWAAH-HA!" Shouted Buffy as she had skipped her left foot forward and suddenly found herself flying & hovering a few feet off the sidewalk...

Willow and Faith starts to grab Buffy's now shapely legs and with a start, sees and feels that they, too, are both flying / floating and they frantically start waving/flapping their arms to somehow slow down their upwards assent.

The ladies slowly and not to gently float back down to the ground, eyeing Xander with utter annoyance at their newly found powers of flight...

Ah, man... looks like the girls are gonna get on my case, again, for causing another mess...
How can I get away from them so that they can cool off...
HEY?! I've got Batman's utility gun... I can ... oh oh... 'He is surveying Sunnydale's Suburban landscape..'
-No Tall Gotham-like Buildings to hook the batarangs to fly away...

Wait... I've got Batman's utility belt that has a mini-fusion rocket launcher for emergency escapes...
As the Ladies each raise their right arms as to grab him and readies their left hands to punch him for getting them into another fine mess...

Xander smirks at the ladies and say ...

"Ladies... I'm BATMAN."

-He activates the button and blast-off away from the three beautiful & very angry ladies...

All three gals screeches out in protest at Xander's antics...

"HEY!!!" "WATCH IT!!!" "XANDER, You JERK!!"

-as Buffy, Willow & Faith are nudged back a bit from Xander's mini-jet blasts him away from them...

The Ladies are now really pissed as their costumes not only clings deeply unto their enhanced bodies but their skirts & tops are trying to blow upwards and they are likewise trying to keep their dignity intact without already exposing any more skin...

Xander flies off into Sunnydale's setting sun and the three fuming Gals of Might ponder what they will do to Xander once they get their now enhanced fists on him...
