Introduction to this fan fiction story:

The world has become vampire crazy. Twilight and his minions have convinced the world that the slayers, hunters and witches are terrorists. Buffy and her new Council have all been found guilty and sentenced to death for crimes against vampires. The world wished to be slayer free. Buffy and the gang choose to grant that wish and leave this world to TPTB mercy...

A wish and they begin anew in a world that will perhaps give them a chance to live normal lives. Well as normal as slayers, witches and were people can live.

This is an AU world where the gang all choose to live after losing to Twilight and let the world have its wishes. They will leave and let the powers deal with the free will choices of humanity.

Important Author Notes:

This will also have some twists and turns that may make certain people seem super powered or even over powered. The relationships will be mostly be none cannon for Buffy and possible the same for the Harry Potter Universe. I have reasons for what I am doing and it will all be explained eventually. This is a fair warning to all. I play with the facts, characters and perceptions we may all have of the two universes. I mix and match as I want to make it all fit. Everything will be explained in time and there will be a second story from this one eventually. However it will seem to just hang there at one point. That cannot be helped at this time. So please no flames about that for the moment. Just remember there is always a balance even if it is not apparent in the early parts of this work.

I never play by the rules you might expect for either universe. I also expect that this may be a long work or at least two stories.

Reviews are welcomed but remember this may or may not be betaed. So read at your own risk.

Part 3 The Introductions

Giles looked around the decapitated building. He had a feeling it was not an overly secure location. However, given the past year or two of their lives it almost seemed like a mansion. He sighed and pulled off his glasses cleaning them. The plan had come as a shock to him.

He had wanted to protest that it was a slayer's duty to defend humanity. However, in his deepest heart of hearts he could not and would not do that. The humanity of their world had rejected and hunted them.

A part of him had expected it even as he and the others had scrambled to rebuild the council. However, whatever he might feel about abandoning the world paled in comparison to protecting the slayers and their allies.

Rupert Giles looked over and saw how stressed Buffy and Faith were. Both were ready to explode. He was glad when Buffy sent Faith to scout the area with Kennedy. He had to admit his option of the later went up with her joining Willow on the rescue. He sighed and knew he had failed his family. Rupert knew he had not protected them from the evil that was humanity at its worse.

He could not condemn Buffy for taking the only option to save her slayers. He knew since the spell Buffy and Willow felt every death of every slayer. It had almost driven both mad until they could construct a shield to mute the pain of it. He felt an echo of it though the slayer/watcher bond and it had turned his stomach.

He knew Faith also felt an echo. He sighed and prayed this world would be better. Looking around he noted that there were about 40 others besides the core group. He knew that they had to spread out as quickly as possible. If what Whistler said was true they had to find the new slayers and quickly. They did not want a repeat of the past.

On the plus side they had a list of slayers. They could perhaps prevent a repeat of the disaster they had after the fall of Sunnydale. He also could admit that over half the others were not slayers. They had a chance at a semi normal life. The look on Buffy's face said she wanted them protected and safe. He sighed and knew the main battle would once again fall to those he called his family. However, he could not fault Buffy because she was the Queen of the line and she would protect her people.

Sirius looked on. He was not going to panicky. These people were not aurors and they did not seem to want to hurt him.

If he had to guess he would say they had no idea who he was. He swallowed his fear and considered his options with care. His wand was hidden in the folds of his robe. He knew however he could not fight off that many people injured. He considered shifting but, again the chances of him getting away were slim. The only real bonus was it might heal his leg. That was of course assuming that they had set it right. He needed information. He also needed to warn Dumbledore and the Order. He shifted around and looked for what he needed. He knew there was an emergency Port key here. If he could get it that might be his best shot at escape. Of course he wanted answers first.

Buffy turned her attention back to the man they had dragged along with them. She knelt at his side. "Hi, I am Buffy Summers. I'm really sorry about your leg. I tried to avoid landing on you. Willow" She pointed to her friend. "Willow she set your leg using magic. Only the spell to get us here took a lot of power. So, she and the others are a bit tired. The thing is your leg is being splinted by her power. I would like to use a regular one so she can let the power loose. I know it might hurt some and I again I apologize but she needs to rest."

He nodded. He did not really understand what she meant by the spell to get them here. However, he did know that side aspirating was hard especially for so many. "I understand. I know it was not your fault. I mean about my leg. I stumbled. You saved me from the veil so a broken leg is a small price...I think."

Buffy smiled. Sirius noted it lit up her entire face. She was lovely.

"So, we did not kidnap you from that place. Ok we did but not..."

She babbled and Sirius had to smile. "No you saved me. I am grateful."

"Well good then. Ah, what's your name?"

"Sirius Black"

"Yeah that place was seriously black, dark and freaky." Buffy agreed.

Sirius grinned it was the first time both his names had become a bit of a joke. He grinned as this happened. The cluelessness of the young ladies response made him certain she had no idea who or what he was."My name is Sirius Black Miss Summers."

Buffy looked at him and smiled. She had grabbed a broken chair and fashioned some splints. She tore off a piece of her t-shit to tie the splint in place. He was shocked that she would do that for a stranger. "Well Mr. Black, we got this leg fixed. Just in time too."She watched as Willow plopped down. Her energy clearly gone for the moment.

"Will you ok?"

"Yeah, just give me a minute." her hands touched the ground and she leaned back against a wall. "That takes a lot out of a girl wish or not."

"Yeah, yeh think?" Dawn snarked. She stumbled over to her sister and Willow and collapsed. "Damn I am tired."

"Language Dawn."Buffy said automatically. She turned back to Sirius and decided introductions were in order. "Like I said I am Buffy Summers, that is Dawn my sister and my best friend Willow Rosenberg. My other best friend is the handsome guy with an eye patch. Xander Harris and Daniel Osborne is our best buddy. "

"Hi" They all said with a grins.

The old guy he's my watcher. Rupert Giles. Him you might understand as he is from this neck of the woods originally well sort a," Buffy said with a frown."

"Old Guy?" Giles said with a dark look. He noted Buffy wink at him. She was impossible at times. Of course he was happy to see her sense of fun peak out. The last year she had been very sober and morass.

"Well yeah, you are the elder of the group." Willow said. "I mean not that you are old or nothing. Cause you aren't and well you are in your prime..."

Kennedy came back in with Faith and pulled Willow to her kissing her soundly. Stopping the babble and shocking Sirius to his core. "Sorry she was on babble feast and kissing her is the best way to stop it. By the way I am Kennedy and that's Faith."

"Faith and Kennedy are the last of our core group."Giles said. "They are both like daughters to me." His dark look warned Sirius off. He saw the way the man almost drooled at the girls. Then again both slayers were beautiful. In fact all the women here were lovely. Giles noted Xander smirk.
"Looks like we broke him."Xander said. "Look Mr. We don't want any trouble. As soon as we can we will be on our way. We are sorry you got dragged into this and we will find a way to tell the cops you had no part in the crashing into their gate thing."

Sirius looked at the young man. He noted the way he stood tall and proud. Like the others he seemed battle wary and jumpy. It was a look Sirius knew too well. It was the look he had when he looked in the mirror or when he saw Harry. It was clear these young people were Harry's age or maybe just a bit older. He decided he had to be honest. Something about these young people's looks told him he could trust them. "It would not matter. I am a wanted man."

"Wanted for what?" Dawn asked.

"Dawn!" Buffy said shocked at her sister bluntness.

Sirius smiled and decided the girl reminded him of Hermione Granger.

"I am wanted for murdering 13 Muggles and betraying two of my friends who were wizards."

"So, did you do it?"

"Dawn!" This time it Giles who shouted at her. She looked at him daring him to complain they had to know the truth. Because even if he did it, well second chances is what they did right? Besides technically they were all wanted for murder. Ok maybe not the kids but still...

Sirius was shocked. He could not form an answer at first. It was shocking that someone would ask and even more so that he had a feeling they might actually believe him.
