Author's Notes: I don't own any of the Harry Potter characters. If I did, I would have Remus tied up to my bed and Sirius cooking in the kitchen while Harry plays with my daughter. I don't own any of the Marvel Comic book Characters either. If I did, Logan would be out in the yard hurting my husband while Scott and Alex are arguing about how to hurt my husband. I don't own any of the Inu-Yasha characters. If I did, Sesshomaru would be joining Remus in my bed. Inu-Yasha would be with Harry playing with my daughter and Kagome and Sango would be helping Ororo beat the tar out of Miroku. I don't own any of the Star Wars characters. If I did then Qui-Gon would still be alive, Obi-Wan would not have had to train Anakin, and Anakin would not have gone to the Dark Side. I don't own Charmed or anyone from them. If I did, do you really think I would have them fight all those stupid demons that seem to think that they can take them out? I was just laughing at the thought of owning Fantastic Four. It's just so flipping funny! Enjoy!
This story is dedicated to the following people who have stuck with me throughout the craziness that is my life: my daughter, Victoria, argonaut57, Beth, darkcelestial20, Jessica, Black Wolf-Dog, R-Cleberg, Mark41, daydream14, and HowCanYouWalkAwayWhileIAmCrying. I love you all!!
If you're reading this I'll tell you like I tell everyone else. This story is of my design, and me drinking one too many wine coolers, and the question "What would happen if…?". If you don't like whom I've hooked up, my version of words from other languages, or how I spell some of the names, don't review about it. I don't follow the stuff that others write. I like to stick to the books. If I find that they are spelled a different way then I will go ahead and change it. But until that day arrives, take your purist thinking, wad it in a tight little ball, and stuff where the sun don't shine. If you don't like my tales then you don't have to read it. Also when I finally get more than one chapter up, please don't just read the first chapter and then tell me that it sucks. How the bloody hell would you know anyhow? Are you Stan Lee, J.K. Rowling, Rumiko Takahaski, or George Lucas? No, I didn't think so. If you are the above people, my apologies for using your ideas and thank you for not suing me.
United in Battle: Episode II

Prologue
Help Asked for and Received
A young man about the age of twenty-one sat cross-legged on the floor of the conservatory of an old Victorian home in San Francisco. There were six children, ranging in age from two to seven, were sitting in a circle around him. He watched as the kids rolled a ball back a forth between them as twin girls ran into the room. They both had dark brown hair and bright brown eyes with flecks of green in them. One of the girls had her hair pulled up into a ponytail while the other had her hair in pigtails. The young man smiled softly as the girls hurried over to him, completely ignoring the woman lying on the wicker sofa with her arm over her eyes and a newspaper draped over her stomach and the child hiding under it.
"Uncwe Hawwy, Adwian is dowing somefink he's not supwose to." The older of the twins wrapped her tiny arms around Harry Potter's neck. He sister climbed into his lap and wrapped her arms around his chest.
"Okay, Prue, Penny." Harry wrapped his arms around the twin three year olds Prue and Penny Matthews and climbed to his feet. "Where was he at?"
"De attic." Penny laid her head on Harry's shoulder.
Harry looked over at the woman lying on the wicker sofa. "Can you handle the kids, Aunt Vee?"
"If I weren't so tired from this one, I'd hex you for that." Veronica Lupin moved the Bay Mirror and held the little girl close to her chest as she swung her legs over the side of the sofa. "Go and find Adrian. He needs to understand that there are certain places that he can't go into regardless of who his father is."
"But are you sure that you can handle all the children without having to call Piper and Leo or Sesshomaru and Tori?" Harry ducked as Veronica threw a throw pillow at him. "Sorry I asked." He hurried out of the room with Prue and Penny still attached to his body. "Time to get out of the line of fire, girls."
Harry carried Prue and Penny to the foyer and set them on the bottom step of the stairs. He followed the girls up the stairs in search of their cousin Adrian Halliwell-Snape. The girls grasped Harry's hands as they climbed the stairs to the attic. Adrian was standing in front of what looked like a wall computer and watching the blinking lights. One of the lights was emitting a buzzing sound. He was slowly reaching for the button when Harry and the twins stepped into the attic.
"Adrian Severus Halliwell-Snape, you'd better not be touching those comms." Harry smirked as the four-year-old Adrian whirled around.
"I wasn't doing nothing." His tiny hands were jammed into the back pockets of his jeans and he looked up at Harry with his obsidian eyes.
"You weren't doing anything?" Harry smirked slightly as he pulled out his wand. "We'll see what your father thinks…"
Adrian's little eyes widened in terror. He knew what his father would do. "No, Uncle Harry." He bowed his dark brown head as a tear slid down his tiny cheek. "I just wanted to talk to Uncle Obi-Wan."
"Obi-Wan would have told you come and get one of your parents if you had answered his call." Harry moved toward the comms computer as the beeping intensified. Harry pushed the button that Adrian had been reaching for.
"Come in." Obi-Wan Kenobi's voice came out the speaker. He sounded like he was starting to get frustrated. "Jedi Master Kenobi calling Halliwell Manor."
Harry looked down at Adrian, Prue, and Penny. "Go get Aunt Veronica and your parents. Tell them a friend is calling." He watched the children run out of the attic before pressing several buttons. "Halliwell Manor, this is Harry."
"Where are the others?" Obi-Wan was starting to get highly frustrated. He was on a ship in orbit around Earth but couldn't find anywhere to land.
"They're on the way. What's up?"
"Look I need to land somewhere near you. Any suggestions?"
"Well, you could land on the North side of the Golden Gate Bridge in the Golden Gate National Recreation Area." Phoebe Halliwell-Snape stood in the doorway of the attic with Severus Snape right behind her. "I'll get Paige to orb you back to the Manor."
"That sounds like a plan to me. Obi-Wan out." The lights on the comms stopped flashing as Harry turned the comms off.
"Well I guess we should tell Paige and Leo to go and get him." Severus turned on his heels and stalked down the stairs.
Harry smirked slightly when he realized that Severus wasn't wearing his usual robes but skintight black jeans and a white button down dress shirt. "Did you take him shopping, Phoebe?"
"Yeah. Unfortunately I can't get him to wear them at the school." Phoebe wrapped her arm through Harry's as they made their way down to the conservatory.
"The students wouldn't be terrified of him when he looks like that." Harry coughed slightly as Phoebe jabbed him in the ribs.
"You're not too old for me to hurt." Phoebe tugged on one of the locks of Harry's messy black hair.
Harry shrugged slightly as he adjusted his glasses. "You just have to tell Aunt Vee and she'll hurt me."
Phoebe looked Harry over. He was wearing baggy jeans and t-shirt. His glasses hid his beautiful emerald green eyes. "Harry, when are you going to let me take you shopping and get you some contacts?"
"When Aunt Vee finally stops thinking she's invincible while she's pregnant." Harry ducked as Phoebe reached for his hair.
"You need a makeover, kid, and if I have to recruit Veronica and my sisters, you're going to have one this summer. I don't know how Ginny puts up with you wearing those rags." Phoebe pulled at his shirt that looked like it had seen better days.
"I like to wear these rags, as you call them, when I'm working out in the garden." Harry shrugged slightly as they walked down the stairs. "Let's go see what Obi-Wan wants."
Phoebe rolled her eyes as five columns of orbs appeared at the base of the stairs. "Talk about appearing out of thin air."
"Well you did tell us to go and get Obi-Wan. We had to bring Anakin as well after Logan put the displacement thingy on the ship to hide it from anyone not looking for it." Paige smiled at her husband as he growled slightly at her.
Prue and Penny came running into the room with Wyatt and Chris right behind them. "Daddy!" The girls launched themselves into Logan's arms.
Wyatt and Chris wrapped themselves around Logan's legs. "Uncle Logan!"
"What am I?" Phoebe's hands flew to her hips as she stared at her nieces and nephews. "A demon?"
The kids turned and looked at the woman standing on the stairs. "Aunt Phoebe!" They scrambled from Logan to Phoebe and gave her hugs.
"That's better. See, Logan, they know who gives them the good candy." Phoebe stuck her tongue out at Logan.
Obi-Wan looked over his shoulder at Leo and Paige. "Have they been like this since Voldemort's defeat?"
"Yeah. They fight over whom the kids like more. Personally I think they like me the most because I let them use their powers." Leo ducked as Paige took a swing at his head. "Come on. I think we need to hear what's going on."
Obi-Wan followed Leo into the conservatory and braced himself for Veronica's hug, which didn't come since she was buried under children. "I see you've kept busy."
"Don't make me hex you." Veronica took her oldest son off of her chest. "That's a good boy, Sirius. Go attack Uncle Obi-Wan."
Obi-Wan held out a hand and Sirius Lupin hovered in the air as two girls hurried to hug his legs. "Hello, Lily, Ella. You've both grown up into such beautiful young ladies." He turned his gaze from Lily and Ella Lupin, who were Sirius's sisters, and looked at the hovering Sirius. "Do you promise to behave, Sirius?"
"Yes, Uncle Obi-Wan." Sirius gently floated to the ground. As soon as his feet touched the tile floor, he wrapped his arms around Obi-Wan's waist.
"Now, why don't you kids go into the kitchen and find something to snack on while we adults have a little chat." Obi-Wan waved the triplets away from him and turned to Anakin. "Go with them, Anakin."
"There are plenty of cookies in the cookie jar. Wyatt and Chris can show you where it's at." She gave Anakin a hug before pushing him out of the room. She looked at her two boys. "Show Anakin to the kitchen and keep all the kids there." She held out her hand. "And give me the Extendable Ears." Three pairs of flesh colored ears dropped into her hands. "I need to remember to kill Fred and George for giving the boys these." Piper stepped into the conservatory with Severus and Remus behind her. Slowly she turned to look at the Jedi Master. "It's good to see you again, Obi-Wan, even if you're bringing bad news."
"I suggest that we all sit down. What I have to tell you is grave indeed." Obi-Wan remained standing as the rest of the adults sat in the wicker furniture. He held a small cube in the palm of his hand. "I received this transmission just yesterday." He placed the cube on the center of the coffee table and pressed a button. The hologram of a ship landing appeared above the cube.
Three other ships hovered along the perimeter of the landing pad as the silver ship landed. The three yellow ships landed alongside the other ship. The pilots climbed from the yellow ships as the ramp lowered from the silver ship. Several guards and a regal looking woman came down the ramp while the pilots from the other three ships disembarked.
"We made it." A man with a patch covering his left eye came toward the Naboo Royal Cruiser. "I guess I was wrong. There was no danger at all."
Suddenly a huge fireball was reaching skyward from where the Naboo Cruiser had once sat. The pilot ran toward the bodies of the guards and the woman. The pilot took off her helmet before gathering the woman into her arms. "Corde. I'm so sorry, Corde."
Corde coughed slightly as she looked up at the woman. "I'm sorry, m'Lady. I've failed you." Corde's head rolled to one side as she let go of her life.
The man with the patch stood behind the two women. "Come on, m'Lady. It's not safe out in the open."
Padme Amidala, Senator of Naboo, slowly climbed to her feet and stared down at the body of her decoy. "I should never have come back."
"Senator, we must take cover." The man was getting angry. It was his job to keep the Senator safe and she was helping.
"Yes, Captain Typho." Padme nodded her head once and followed Captain Typho off of the landing platform.
The hologram faded slowly. "Who was that woman?" Harry was leaning against the doorjamb.
"That was Padme Amidala. She was the Queen of Naboo when we were captured." Remus patted Veronica's shoulder. "Why did you come to get us?"
Obi-Wan's fingertips were pressed together. "As I said, I received this yesterday enroute to Coruscant. Master Yoda asked that I come here and retrieve some help."
"Who would want to kill her?" Paige flipped her hair over her shoulder. "I mean to go to those lengths to kill her is stupid."
"All the evidence that we have points to disgruntled spice miners on one of the moons of Naboo." Obi-Wan looked around the room.
"So you think some stupid spice miners are the cause of this explosion?" Remus ignored the questioning looks coming from everyone except Veronica. Obi-Wan nodded slightly as Remus rubbed the back of his neck. "Who does Padme think it is?"
"She believes that the Separatists are behind it." Obi-Wan leaned back in his seat. "I believe an explanation is in order. Padme is now the Senator of Naboo and she is going to need protection in case of another assassination attempt." Obi-Wan looked around the room. "Any other questions?"
"Just a couple." Harry pushed away from the doorjamb. "What are the Separatists? And what would they gain if Padme were killed?"
"The Separatists are a group of systems that have pulled away from the Galactic Republic. I'm not sure what they would gain but the Republic would lose its main opposition to the creation of an army." Obi-Wan shook his head slightly. "I'm sure the Jedi Council could tell you more about it."
"Well, what are we waiting for? An engraved invitation?" Tori jumped up from her position on the couch. "I'm going to pack."
"Who's going to take care of the kids?" Piper looked at Leo.
"Don't look at me. I'm going with you. Magic school is just going to have to wait until I get back." Leo grinned at his wife. "I'm tired of letting you have all the fun."
"I'll contact Xavier and see if he can take some of the kids." Logan walked out the room pulling a communicator out of his back pocket.
"I'll see if Ron, Hermione, and Ginny are up for another adventure." Harry followed after Logan.
"Maybe Reed and Sue can take the other half of the kids." Veronica climbed to her feet. "Maybe Johnny and Ben would like to come with us."
"The more the merrier." Obi-Wan watched Veronica hurry out of the room with Tori hot on her heels. "Haven't you guys had any excitement since I left?"
"Nope." Paige smiled softly as she and her sisters hurried upstairs to pack for their children and themselves.
-----
Logan stood on the back porch and lit a cigar before flipping his communicator open. It rang twice before someone picked up on the other end. "Xavier's School for Gifted…"
"Ororo, it's Logan."
"Logan! How's married life treating you?"
"Good." He took a large puff of his cigar. "We have a bit of a situation here."
"What's up?"
"Kenobi showed up and needs our help."
"I'll tell Charles. You need someone to watch the children?"
"Yeah. We might want to split them up. Adrian and Sirius are two little troublemakers on their own but when you add Wyatt, Leo, and Chris…Let's just say lock up all the breakables so they can't get do anything to them."
"Send the boys here. Charles and I can take care of them. Maybe we'll let them play in the Danger Room." Logan could practically here the wheels turning in his friend's head.
"They just had better behave."
"They will. I'm sure that Susan and Reed will take the girls. They have Reed wrapped around their tiny fingers."
"I'll get 'Roni to make one of them Portkeys. Expect the kids in a few hours. Make sure you let Chuck know."
"Will do."
Logan flipped his comm closed before grinding what was left of his cigar out.
-----
Harry rummaged through his trunk and found the charmed mirror that connected to the ones that Tonks, Regina, and Ron had. "Nymphadora Tonks."
Harry's image remained clear for a moment before it shimmered slightly. The image cleared to reveal the pink haired Auror. "Harry, I thought you'd be back by now."
"Well, I'll be a while yet. Do you have any vacation time coming up?"
"Yeah. Why?"
"Could you get Ron, Hermione, Regina, Charlie, and Ginny and come to Halliwell Manor tonight?"
"Sure. Why?"
"I'll tell you when you get here. Just tell the others that it's an emergency."
"I expect a full explanation when we get there."
"Will do." Harry watched as Tonks's image shimmered again before disappearing completely.
Harry rewrapped his mirror and slid it into a knapsack with some of his clothes before slinging it onto his back and hurrying downstairs.
-----
Veronica listened to the phone ring several times before someone picked up. "Baxter Building. Susan Richards speaking." Susan Richards's voice echoed through the phone.
"Sue, it's Veronica."
"Hey, Veronica. How are things going in San Francisco?"
"Okay but that's kind of why I'm calling."
"Does it have anything to do with the strange signals we've been getting all day?" Reed Richards's voice seemed to take over.
"Kind of. Obi-Wan and Anakin are here gathering help."
A slight shuffling could be heard as Susan pushed Reed away from the phone. "What do you need?"
"We need someone to help watch the kids while we're gone." Veronica rubbed her neck.
"We'll take the girls." Susan sounded so excited.
"I'll tell Johnny and Ben to head out to San Francisco." Reed also sounded excited.
"No need. When I send the kids I'll make the Portkey return to the Manor so they can join us then." Veronica was rummaging through her suitcase looking for some clothes to take with her. "Tell them to pack light."
"No prob. We'll show the girls a good time. See you when you get back. I'm going to want details." Susan hung up the phone while yelling for Johnny and Ben.
Veronica smiled as she turned off the cordless and placed it on the charger. Remus stood in the doorway watching his wife. He saw her smile as she started to fill the bag on the bed with some of the clothes she had picked out.
"What did Reed and Sue say?" Remus moved behind his wife of six years and wrapped his arms around her slender waist. Considering she had been pregnant with three at once and two other pregnancies, he was glad she had the slenderness that had annoyed her brother, James. It must be a family trait.
"They'll take the girls. Reed's also sending Ben and Johnny with us." Veronica patted Remus's hands slightly before starting to pack some of his things. "I need to make two Portkeys. One to Xavier's and one to the Baxter Building. I'll also make them returning so we won't have to wait for anyone to show up."
"That all sounds excellent but I can't help but think Johnny going with us is a bad idea." Remus watched Veronica pulled the bag closed.
"As long as he knows his place, I don't think it'll be a problem." Veronica picked up the bag and handed it to Remus. "I'll meet you downstairs in a minute."
Remus kissed her cheek before leaving the room. Veronica grabbed a blue ribbon and a pink ribbon before she made her way down the stairs. Everyone had gathered in the conservatory again. Veronica looked around the group and saw that the children had packed. Sirius, Ella, and Lily had packed for James and their baby sister, Beth. Leo and Wyatt had done the same with Melinda's things. Paige had helped Prue and Penny pack while Phoebe and Severus had fussed over Adrian and his baby sister, Patricia. Logan was holding his son Ben in his arms as Remus took Beth from Leo. Veronica smiled softly as she looked around the room.
"So how are the kids getting there?" Piper held several baskets in her hands. Obviously she had decided to pack enough food for an army.
"I'm making Portkeys. I'll go with the girls and bring back Johnny and Ben." Veronica yanked her wand from her pocket as several soft pops sounded behind her.
"Well, I guess I can't get the drop on you, Mother." Regina Lupin-Weasley stood with her arms crossed and a small bag at her feet.
"What are you doing here? I thought you were with Charlie at the dragon camp." Veronica slid her wand back into her pocket.
"I was but when we were contacted by Tonks that Harry needed us, I decided that the dragons would be fine without me." Regina grinned as Veronica glanced over her shoulder at Harry.
"What did Charlie think about all this?" Paige smiled softly. She was the only one to notice that Charlie Weasley was standing right behind Regina.
"I thought it was a great idea for a second honeymoon." Charlie smiled as he stepped toward his mother-in-law. "Hey, Mum."
Veronica smiled as she wrapped her arms around Charlie and gave him a squeeze. "I'm glad to see you all."
"We're glad to see you, too, Aunt Vee." Ron Weasley shoved his brother out of the way and lifted Regina off her feet before handing her off to the hugs of Hermione Granger, Ginny Weasley, and Tonks.
"Well, what are we doing?" Hermione looked around the room and saw the various bags.
"I was just getting ready to send the children to Xavier's and the Baxter Building." Veronica held up the perfume and hairspray. "Any volunteers to go with them?"
"I'll help with the boys." Harry swung James up into his arms as Sirius grabbed a hold of his pants.
"Same here." Ron joined Harry and the boys and took Ben from Logan. "They'll be fine."
Ginny took Beth from Remus and took her place beside Veronica. "I'm going to help with the girls."
"Same here." Regina tried to scoop Patricia out of Severus's arms. "I've got her, Uncle Sev."
Severus raised an eyebrow at Regina before letting her take his daughter. Veronica quickly waved her wand over the ribbons. She tossed the blue ribbon to Harry and Ron. "This will take you to Xavier's and bring you back here an hour later. It'll bring back anyone that wants to help with you."
"Got it." Harry waved his hand over the pile of bags sitting between him and Ron and shrank them down so that he could slip them into his pocket. He quickly situated James in his arms while Ron slipped Ben into a baby carrier strapped to his chest. "Okay, boys. We're going to have to hold the ribbon and then you'll get to see Uncle Scott and Aunt Ororo."
The boys cheered as they each grabbed a section of the ribbon. Ron and Harry grasped the ends of the ribbon before Ron tapped it with his wand. They disappeared with a soft whoosh as Regina and Ginny shrunk the girl's luggage.
Prue pulled on Regina's pant leg. "Do we get ta twabel wike vat?"
"As soon as Mother has the other Portkey ready." Regina patted Prue's head as Veronica started to knot the ribbon to each girl's wrist.
"This way they don't get scared and let go of the ribbon." Veronica knelt between Prue and Penny. She finished tying the ribbon to Ella before she handed the end to Regina. She saw Ginny had picked up the other end and had Beth secured in her carrier. "I think the girls are in good hands so I won't go with you. Ben and Johnny are supposed to be coming back with you." She looked down at the little girls as they all heard Tonks groan slightly. "I want you girls to give them kisses when you get there."
The girls giggled as Regina tapped the ribbon with her wand and they disappeared. Obi-Wan noticed that Charlie was looking around the conservatory. Piper had dragged Phoebe, Paige, Tori, and Veronica into the kitchen to make tea.
"So...now what do we do?" Charlie lanced at Obi-Wan.
"We wait for the others to return." Veronica had a tea tray levitating before her as Piper and Paige followed behind her with the tray of cups. Phoebe and Tori were right behind them with the platters of cakes and sandwiches. "So how has everyone on Coruscant been doing?"
"Most of the Jedi are out keeping the peace as usual. Anakin and I were just returning from a border dispute on Ansion when we received the transmission. I'm afraid that the Senate will believe that the Senator is dead." Obi-Wan accepted the cup of tea with a slight nod of his head.
"Wait… the Senate?" Piper paused as she was passing a cup of tea to Logan.
"Galactic Republic is governed by a Chancellor and a Senate. The Chancellor is just a figurehead…"
"So he can't make the Separatists come back to the Republic." Paige paused in the middle of slicing the cake.
"No he can't." Obi-Wan took a sip of his tea. "Chancellor Palpatine has tried to reunite the Republic but I believe that it will fall."
"Palpatine…Palpatine." Tori snapped her fingers. "He got elected the last time we were there."
"Yes. If my memory is correct, you didn't like him." Obi-Wan tilted his head as he watched Tori nod her head slightly.
"Yeah. I still say that he's the Sith Lord that you guys were looking for." Tori crossed her arms as she climbed to her feet.
"So what exactly will we be doing?" Hermione was holding her teacup while a notebook and self-inking quill floated in front of her.
"I will not know until we arrive on Coruscant." Obi-Wan placed his empty cup on the coffee table as a rumbling sound was heard from the foyer.
"Get this pile of rocks off of me!" Johnny storm's voice echoed through the house, even though he was buried under Ben Grimm.
"Yeah! Yeah!" Ben climbed to his feet as two pops echoed in the foyer.
"We did warn you not to stand so close together." Regina held her side as she and Ginny laughed at them.
Two more pops echoed in through the foyer. Harry motioned the group back, which Johnny ignored. "Incoming." There was a whoosh and two young adults landed on Johnny, who had been hunched over trying to get rid of the kinks in his back.
"That landing was nice and soft." Marie D'Ancanto flipped her hair over her shoulder.
"Speak for yourself." Johnny shifted slightly on the floor. "Would you be so kind as to get off me!"
Marie jumped to her feet as Bobby Drake heaved himself off of Johnny's legs. "I'm so sorry, Johnny."
Johnny slowly and painfully climbed to his feet again. "A little warning would be nice next time."
"But I did warn you." Harry smirked slightly as Ben and Ron laughed. "I said incoming."
Johnny glanced at Harry before he turned and looked at the adults scattered around the room. "So…what's going on?"
"I'll explain once we are on our way to Coruscant." Obi-Wan watched as everyone scattered to gather up his or her bags. "Are we taking a Portkey, driving, or orbing to the ship?"
"Well I think the cops wouldn't like a car to sit there for Merlin knows how long, so I think those that can Apparate and orb should take the ones that can't." Veronica turned on her heel and made her way back into the conservatory.
"Will I land on my ass if we orb or Apparate?" Johnny hurried after Veronica.
Veronica rolled her eyes as she vanished their tea. "No, you won't, Johnny, but orbbing might make you a little sick to your stomach."
"So who's going with whom?" Leo looked around at the other adults.
"How many can you guys Apparate?" Marie turned to Harry.
"We can each take one." Harry watched Marie nod slightly.
"That's good. Me and Bobby can Apparate with two of you." Marie crossed her arms as Bobby nodded.
"I'll go with Severus." Phoebe hugged Severus around the waist.
"I'll orb with Leo, Obi-Wan, and Ben." Piper moved to stand next to her husband.
"I've got Logan and Anakin." Paige leaned back in Logan's arms.
"I'll take Sesshomaru." Remus glanced at the dog demon who nodded his silver head slightly.
Tonks rolled her eyes slightly. "I'll take Johnny." She glared at Johnny who gave her a big grin. "Keep your hands to yourself, Flame Boy."
"Good to see that the sparks are still there." Ben grinned as he wrapped an arm around Piper's shoulders.
"Yeah, I guess. I'll take Tori." Veronica smiled as Tori nudged Sesshomaru slightly.
"Okay we've got all the plans ready. Let's go." Harry grabbed Ginny's hand and disappeared with a pop.
One group after another disappeared and reappeared near the ship. Obi-Wan and Anakin headed straight to the cockpit as everyone else started to put their bags away and settle in for the several hour trip.
Author's Notes: I know it doesn't seem like I keep up with my stories but honestly I do. It's jusst between the holidays, docotr's appointments, work, and my daughter's school schedule, I need about seven or maybe eight more hours in a day. I promise to update my other stories as I can but I think I need to get some more wine coolers for the jokes nad craziness. I love to see any reviews.
