A Different Kind Of Sunrise

Chapter One: Good-bye's and Hellos'

Sirius Black looked at the picture of his daughter. She was a pretty young thing. She had light brown hair, a few shades anyway from his and the brightest blue eyes he'd ever seen. He knew where she got those, her mother. He was only with Joyce two weeks if that and she'd never told him she'd gotten pregnant but then again he wasn't around long enough to really get to know her that well.

He'd been called a week ago and was told that Dawn, his daughter, was now his responsibility according to Joyce's will. Now he was standing in front of the Summers' his house about to meet this girl and the people who'd been watching over her for the last few weeks.

He knocked on the door and expected a muggle around his own age to show up. What he got was the sweetest looking sandy blonde who reeked of power; she also couldn't be older then 21.

"You must be Mister Black." She smiled.

He couldn't help but smile back.

***********

Dawn sat in her room alone on her bed. She had two choices as of now. She could go to England with her real father and practice magic. Since he was a wizard she had to have magic in her, and he didn't even know she was a key of pure magic. He'd explained his past to her and she'd done the same for him. He'd only been in her life a few days but she already loved him like the real father she was. Apparently her mother had found out she was carrying Dawn after he'd left her and was still married to Hank and just old him that she was carrying his child.

Her second option was stay here with the people that had practically raised her. They weren't family but they knew everything about her. Her father knew about slayers and magic now but he didn't know she was a key.

She sighed and looked at the picture of herself, Buffy and her mom. Her family had never really let her down. She smiled and grabbed a large suitcase.

***********

Sirius looked at Dawn. "Are you sure about this?"

"Yes!" His daughter smiled and rolled her eyes.

"Niblet!" Spike hugged her tightly. "I'd say goodbye but I'll be visiting you." He slightly let go of her. "You better not get into any trouble, unless that bastard really deserves it of course."

Dawn smiled; she didn't know how she was going to survive with out Spike.

"We're gonna miss you," Willow smiled sweetly and gave her a hug.

Tara looked like she was going to cry but didn't. "Take care sweetie, and write us about everything." She hugged her almost as tightly as Spike did.

"Dawnie," Xander looked down at her, "Should there really be words?"

Dawn smiled and threw herself into his arms. She'd miss Xander so much and not just because she used too have a huge crush on him. She'd miss him because he was him and you just didn't forget someone like Xander Harris. She didn't know whom she'd miss more at this point; Xander or Spike? They were both like big brothers and they both had their strong points.

She sighed as she pulled away from Xander. He gave her a quick peck on the cheek.

Anya gave her a quick hug and said, "Goodbye!" just as quick, but it was in a very loving way, Anya's way.

She looked at her father. This was it; she was laving Sunnydale for good, or at least a good year. Before she was out the door Spike gave her another hug; this one wasn't as tight though and kissed her forehead gently.

Her father smiled at her, she was going to fit in perfectly at Hogwarts.

***********

Dawn hurried down the stairs of her new home following the delicious smell of breakfast. She'd arrived with her dad; she loved saying that, late last night. He'd asked her to be quiet so they wouldn't wake Harry. She'd asked who Harry was right before she remembered. Harry Potter was her dad's godson and was living with him, and her now, because both of his parents were dead and his living relatives treated him quite badly. Or as Sirius said, they treat him like a piece of shit that shouldn't even be in the world. Harry was her age and had been attending Hogwarts for the last four years.

Dawn smiled when she reached the kitchen. A boy, who must be Harry because her father's hair wasn't that short, was standing at the stove making French toast. There was a plate full of five next to him. She cleared her throat hoping this would get his attention since he hadn't seemed to notice her yet.

She gasped when he turned all the way. He was gorgeous. He was taller then she was, but not by much and since he wasn't wearing a shirt she could see the six pack he had and the strong-arm muscles. His green eyes shinned like emeralds and his face was just adorable. She could see his lightening scar through his black hair. His hair was something all it's own, it was all over the place, not in a long way but a messy way, and it suited him.

While Dawn was gasping at the boy she was going to be living with, Harry was struggling not to gasp. His jaw had managed to drop to the floor though. She was more beautiful in person then in the black and white picture Harry'd seen earlier. She was almost as tell as he was and her shorts let him get a good look at her long tan legs. Her blue eyes shinned in a way he'd never seen or thought possible. Her hair framed her face and the blonde highlights lighted her look, and she was a very light looking person. She was so pretty.

"Good to see you two are up." Sirius entered the room.

Both teenagers looked away from each other.

Sirius chuckled. He wasn't sure if these two thought of each other like that or just amazed at each other's looks. "Harry you know you didn't have to make breakfast but thank anyways." Sirius grabbed a piece of French toast and took a bite.

"Oh it was nothing!" Harry said and put two more pieces onto the piles on the plate and sat down.

Dawn grabbed a piece and sat down quickly not across or next to Harry, and avoided his gaze.

Sirius chuckled again. It was going to be an interesting month until Hogwarts started, and after that it would probably get even better.
