Chapter 1

Place: Hogwarts (An empty corridor)

Time: Just before midnight

Harry Potter is walking down a hallway at night, unable to sleep.

Around the corner, he hears a small popping noise. He, being the curious person he is, decides to investigate.

It is something out of a Muggle sci-fi movie. A portal. A swirling vortex of bright and shiny colors.

"What the Fuck?" Harry exclaimed.

Harry is too interested in watching the amazing, unusual sight to notice someone creeping up behind him.

Draco Malfoy is startled by the portal's appearance. He wonders what it is, and creeps close, stopping just behind the still-standing Harry.

Harry still doesn't notice Draco behind him.

A wave of fear passes over Draco. Maybe if I push Potter into it, it will go away! So, with a push, Draco shoved Harry into the swirling mass.

"Ahh!" Harry yelled.

Out of reflex, Harry turned in mid-air and grabbed Draco's wrist, dragging him with him, straight into the portal.

With a small "pop" the portal vanished, leaving everything as it was before, minus two boys.

Place: Sunnydale (an abandoned warehouse)

Time: Just before midnight

Spike and Angel were bored. They had already fed for the night, and were now waiting. For what, they were really sure.

"I'm bored." Angel whined.

"Well that's just too damn bad, isn't it?" Spike sneered in response.

Off in another part of the warehouse was a small noise.

"What was that?"

"Do you think I have any clue? Why don't you go check it out and stop whining about your boredom?" Spike snapped.

Angel stormed off in the direction of the noise.

"Woah!!"

"What?"

"You need to see this!"

"Fine. I'm coming." Spike sighed.

He walked over to where Angel was standing.

"What the Hell is that?!"

"I think it is a portal, but it looks odd."

"Not as weird as you look."

"What?!"

"Nothing." Spike said quickly.

Angel looked back at the portal, muttering something about childish idiots.

Spike just smiled.

"Well, we know it's a portal. Where do you think it goes?" Angel mused.

"I don't know."

"Yeah, and you are too chicken to find out!" Angel accused.

"No I'm not, you are!"

"I am not!"

"Are too!"

"Are not!" Angel denied.

"Fine. How about we stop acting like idiots and both go through."

"How do I know I can trust you?"

"You don't but I'm bored, so let's go."

"Fine." Angel agreed. After all he was bored, too.

So Spike and Angel stepped into the portal, neither trusting the other.

The portal vanished with a small sound, leaving no trace behind.

Soooo. Yeah.
