A/N 2: Hi everyone, if anyone wants to beta this story for me, please feel free to PM me and ask! Also, I'm a bit on the fence on whether I should create my own obstacles Buffy and the gang have to face or keep the original ones. If anyone has a preference, either PM me or put it in a review, for right now though, I think I'm just going to stick with the original tv story plot. Enjoy and please review with only constructive criticism!
Chapter 1:
Buffy had had a decent start to her day. She hadn't been late, and she felt like she could be normal here at Sunnydale. No vampires to hunt and kill, just Buffy living her life as Buffy Summers, not a slayer. Now, exiting the principal's office, she thought it got a little better.
"Oh, sorry, I must've not looked where I was going." She quickly apologized, grabbing her stuff off the ground.
"Hey, no worries, happens to the best of us doesn't it? I'm Harry, Harry Potter, I'm new here, came from England." The newly identified Harry greeted.
"I'm Bu-" her words died in her throat as she looked at her classmate. His beautiful emerald green hair and messy black hair created a rather charming roguish look to it. What she found especially nice, was his soft green eyes.
"I'm sorry, what was your name?" He asked, bending down to help pick up.
"Um, Buffy, Buffy Summers, and I'm also new here." She replied with a blush. "Oh, shoot, I'm going to be late to my first class, I'll see you around?" She asked, turning to face toward him as she walked backwards.
"Yeah, maybe Summers." She smiled and turned around to walk the right way. Harry smiled and thought that maybe moving here wasn't going to be so bad.
"Hey, you forgot something!" Harry called, but it was too late, she had already rounded the corner. Harry looked at the object with surprise, a stake? How peculiar.
Line Break
"Willow!" Harry heard a girl say. "Nice dress, good to know you've seen the softer side of Sears." She said sarcastically.
"Oh, well um, my mom picked it out for me." The girl, Willow said back to her.
"No wonder your such a guy magnet." The girl said again.
"Well I quite like the dress." Harry said, walking up and wrapping an arm around the girl. "Willow right?" The girl nodded and blushed.
"Buffy," he said. Buffy greeted him back as what he assumed was the 'popular' girl in this school.
"And who are you?" The girl asked, eyeing him up like an expensive piece of meat.
"Harry, Harry Potter." He said, flashing a fake smile.
"Oh, you're the new kid from England right?" She asked, moving a slight bit closer to her. "Well I'm Cordelia Chase, how about I show you around?" She flashed a rather slutty smile to Harry, and one that he didn't find attractive.
"I'm sorry, but I think that I already have a tour guide, right Willow?" He asked, looking at the girl.
"Um, I, uh," Harry smiled at the shyness of the girl as she flushed in embarrassment.
"Come on Willow." With that, Harry led the blubbering girl through the doors.
"Hard to get huh? Well, I'm sure he's going to be quite a catch for whoever gets him huh Buffy?" She asked. "Um Buffy?" She waved her hand in front of the staring girl.
"Oh um, yeah definitely." She replied, blushing.
"Aw, you have a crush on him don't you?" Buffy looked down and her face burned. "It's alright Buffy, I'm sure every girl in Sunnyvale will have one too if not already. Well, let's go, the library is just around the corner." Buffy nodded and followed the girl.
Line Break
"Woah, Willow, who's this new guy with you?" Xander asked, eyeing the new kid.
"Um, well um, this is uh, Harry." She spluttered out, her face still red.
"Harry, Harry Potter, just moved here from England. You know, I should probably just have that recorded so I don't have to say it every time." Harry laughed, shaking the guy's hand.
"Yeah maybe you should, and uh, I'm Xander and this is Jesse." Harry smiled and shook Jesse's hand.
"Hey, um Willow right?" a voice shouted. The four teens turned to see the other new kid, Buffy.
"Oh, hi, um did you want us to move?" She made to grab her stuff, but Buffy's hand stopped her.
"No, I, uh, wanted to talk to you. Someone told me that you could help with academics." Buffy said nervously.
"Um, yeah, that sounds like something I could do. In fact, Harry and I were suggesting that we meet during 6th period, perhaps in the library?" She said, turning to get confirmation from said guy.
"Oh, no, definitely not the library." Buffy quickly said, remembering the weird librarian.
"Ok, I guess if you really want to, we could do it at my house sometime." Harry offered. "My uncle usually isn't home so we should have the place to ourselves." Both girls blushed at the idea of being home alone with the attractive man as Xander and Jesse merely laughed.
"Um yeah, sounds great." They both said.
"Oh, Buffy I almost forgot. You, uh, left this when we bumped into each other." Harry pulled the wooden stake out of his backpack, earning Buffy confused looks from all present.
"Why do you have a stake?" Willow asked, eyeing it cautiously.
"Oh, um, it's a habit I picked up back in LA. You never know what could happen in those streets you know?" Buffy said with a nervous laugh, hoping everyone would drop it. Luckily they did, though it still lurked around in the back of their minds.
"Say, how about we all hang out sometime and get to know each other you know? Maybe we can form our own gang." Xander suggested, looking at Buffy for most of his time speaking.
Before they could answer, Cordelia decided to show up. "Are these losers bothering you two?" She asked, looking at the three 'losers' as if they were scum.
"Um, no, actually, I was having a rather pleasant conversation." Harry replied, turning his attention back to her and leaning back.
"Hey Cordelia, how are you doing?" Jesse asked, putting his hands on his hips, in Harry's opinion, in an attempt to look cooler. Sadly for him, it was a bust.
"Why would I tell someone like you?" She asked obnoxiously. "Anyways, Buffy, we don't have gym today so you won't have to meet our gym teacher, the lady with all the chest hair, Coach Foster."
"Oh really why not?" Buffy really hoped she didn't say what she think Cordelia was going to say.
"Didn't you hear? Some dead guy was stuffed in Aura's locker. It's a shame for that guy, but it got us out of gym." She answered.
"Like, dead dead?" Buffy didn't want to believe she was hearing, and, quite frankly, no one else present did either.
"Yeah, I mean, Aura told me he was already blue."
"Were there any puncture wounds on him?" Harry and Cordelia along with Xander, Buffy, and Willow looked at her in confusion.
"I don't know, what's up with you? Do you have a morbid fascination with the dead?"
"Nope, just uh, curious. Anyways, I should probably go." She quickly grabbed her stuff and made for the locker room.
"I should probably go to, don't want to be late to any of my first classes do I?" Harry followed suit and ignored a flirtatious goodbye from Cordelia.
"How does he do that?" Xander asked Jesse when they were the only two left.
"I don't know, but do you think he can teach us how to get girls swooning for us like that?" Jesse asked, staring after Cordelia. They both shrugged and made their parted to go to their respective places.
Line Break
"Hey Harry!" Buffy yelled from down the hall, seeing said boy at his locker. "How's your first day going?"
"It's pretty good, especially now that you're here." Buffy blushed at his flirtatious attitude, but quickly regained control of herself. "How's yours?"
"Well, I guess it could be better, but hey, I guess that's my life for ya. Anyways, I was going to go the a club called the Bronze tonight, do you want to join me?" She asked, praying that he would accept the invitation.
"Yeah, sure. Finished all my homework so I'm free tonight. How about I pick you up a 7?" Buffy quickly nodded her head in agreement.
"Yeah, that sounds great." She left with a little skip in her step and sway in her hips, entrancing not only Harry, but quite a few other males who looked enviously at him. After all, Buffy was one of the prettiest girls at the school.
"This should be fun." Harry muttered, closing his locker while his thoughts lingered on the blonde babe.
Line Break
Harry walked up nervously to Buffy's door. He knew they were both attracted to each other, but with him, with Harry Potter, nothing was ever simple and easy. "Hi, you must be Harry, I'm Buffy's mother Joyce Summers." The lady introduced.
"Hi Mrs. Summers, it's nice to meet you, it's obvious where Buffy gets her good looks." Harry said, throwing in his signature smile.
"Well aren't you a flatterer." Mrs. Summers said, waving the boy inside.
"Buffy! You're date is here!" Her mother called, walking towards the kitchen. "While we're waiting would you like something to eat?"
"No thanks Mrs. Summers, I've already eaten at my place."
"Alright I'm coming down." Buffy called, skipping down the stairs. Harry was left in a dazed state as he saw the secret slayer descend down the stairs in a tight blouse with a white undershirt underneath along with a short skirt.
"Better keep your mouth closed Harry else you might find flies in your mouth." She grinned as she saw, what would hopefully be her boyfriend's gaze on her amazing body.
"Sorry, but I think that my reaction is justified by your absolutely breathtaking appearance." Buffy blushed at his appraisal, and took his offered arm.
"Keep talking like that, I like it." Harry just smiled and led her to his car. "Wait a minute, you can drive?" She asked surprised, after all, they were only beginning their sophomore year.
Harry gave her a cheeky grin and put a finger to his lips. "Let's just say my uncle has a special knack for forging things, and couldn't wait for me to be able to drive. Also, his words not mine, he wants me to 'use my English accent as an advantage to pick up the hottest babes in town'." Buffy giggled at the tone he used.
"Well, I hope you didn't just think of me as one of the 'hottest babes' and decide to use your accent to make me wish to pursue you." She said, admiring the car as she got in.
"Oh you definitely are one of the hottest babes Ms. Summers, but I'm not in it for the one night stands. If I was I would've gone for someone a little more like Cordelia."
Oh Buffy could definitely think of keeping him in the long run. After all, anyone who had a problem with, what Buffy already knew would be a thorn in her side, was surely a friend of only difficult part of that of course was the long run.
Line Break
Buffy was slightly nervous as she entered the locally famous club. After all, she was the new girl and she was with the easily hottest guy at the school. He could've easily picked up any girl presently there, but he picked her, or rather she had the guts to pursue him. "Do you want anything to eat or drink?" Harry offered as the two made their way in.
"Um, yeah sure, I'll have something to drink, non-alcoholic though." Buffy said. Harry's look changed a little, making Buffy a little nervous. "Or alcoholic, I mean, you're choice, um, surprise me."
'What the hell was that? I was a Slayer, I should be able to comfortably talk to a guy.' Buffy thought to herself as she gave a nervous laugh.
"No worries, I'm not that big of a drinker myself, even if I do spoil myself with the occasional glass of wine or two." Buffy gave a relieved smile, happy that he didn't think less of her because she didn't drink.
He came back shortly and found her with Willow. "Hey Willow," he greeted, "and here you go Buffy, a cola." Buffy thanked him.
"So, you want to dance?" Buffy asked, setting down her drink after the three had a short conversation. Harry offered her his arm and led her to the center.
"Wow Potter, you got some moves." Buffy commented as he twirled her a couple of times before hugging her backside.
"I should say the same about you Summers." The two grinned at each other as they started dancing individually due to the song change.
"Hey um, I'll be right back ok?" She said with a fake smile. "I'm just going to use the ladies room."
Harry nodded, and responded saying he would be by Willow.
"What are you doing here? Is one of your hobbies spying on teens dancing in a mass of themselves?" Buffy asked Giles, slightly perturbed his appearance at the Bronze.
"I'm simply watching over this place. I mean, look at them, it's like a human buffet for vampires." Giles peered over the railing and stared at the mass of humans and possible demons.
"Look, I moved here to get away from all that stuff I did in LA. So far, I have and I would rather not have someone who constantly reminds me of it following me. I'm here with the hottest guy in town, and yet I'm up here with you. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to rejoin my date." Buffy was about to leave if a hand from the fake librarian didn't stop her.
"I'll let you leave if you can adequately answer my question." Buffy rolled her and eyes and sighed, but rejoined Giles in looking over the iron railing to the crowd below.
"Can you even identify a vampire or even a beast in this crowd. If you are to become the Slayer and protect this Earth, you must. You must have the instinct to sense a monster when it is near you and kill it." Giles explained.
Buffy peered around the room and smiled as she found her target. She had decided to not reiterate her desire to leave behind this forsaken job, and humor the man. "There, right there dancing with that girl. I mean, if you wear those clothes you have to living underground for the majority of your life." Buffy turned to a rather unconvinced and gave a sigh of exasperation.
"You can not simply base your allegations on clothes. Just by saying that you're showing me that you need to be taught to be a true Slayer." Giles said.
"Hey it worked didn't it. I mean, that guy in those clothes dancing with that girl…" Buffy didn't finish her sentence as she noticed who exactly that girl actually was.
"What what is it?" He asked, noticing the alert on the slayer's face.
"He's dancing with Willow." Buffy quickly rushed back down stairs and searched for Willow. After not being able to find her in the crowd, Buffy ran out the door, finding no sign of the red head.
"Xander," she said as said guy approached the club, "have you seen Willow?"
He shook his head and Buffy's heart sank.
A/N: Hope you guys liked this first chapter. I have one more thing I would like you guys to do if you would be so kind. I've written some crossovers before, and have gotten mixed feelings about whether I should include following the main character through his/her challenges. Do you want me to follow Buffy when it's just her and the OG gang because you've already seen the show or would you like me to wait until Harry comes into the fold? Thanks.
