Oh My God!
They madly rushed to their DADA lesson and just made it in time, for Draco and Dawn didn't eat at the same time everyone else for their chat with Buffy, then Dumbledore. But fortunately for them the couple was not present so they were in no trouble. The rest of the class was taking advantage of there being no teacher by almost, it seemed, wrecking the room. Harry, Hermione and Ron were sitting on top of their desks and chatting about stuff. Dawn and Draco joined them.
"Hi, where have you two been?" Harry asked, more concerned about Dawn than Draco.
"Just been speaking to Dumbledore about Draco's dream. It was a message about that Hell God I was talking about earlier." Dawn explained.
"Oh, what did the contain?" Hermione asked Draco.
"Well, this Hell God was in the Hogwarts grounds and I was sitting, frightened watching him. He then picked me up and said "Buffy! This will come of your refusal to be with me, only this will happen to the ones you love!" before drinking my blood and eating my brain, killing me, that's when I woke up." Draco shivered as he explained what he dreamt.
"Oh! I know what this dream is! It's a message from the Hell God, Ben didn't you say Dawn? Well he is giving Buffy a warning about what could happen to you, Dawn. He was just using you as a messenger boy." Hermione explained.
"Right, so I'm just a messenger then." Draco looked a little horrified that the message was for Buffy and could effect Dawn, Harry too looked worried.
Before they could discuss the topic any further, Buffy and Spike had arrived.
"Sorry about out late arrival," Buffy apologised, "we had some urgent business to attended to."
"Right, today's lesson is going to be about Gods and the power they possess." Spike explained, "Does anyone know any famous Gods?" Hermione's hand shot up in the air immediately.
"Alright, Hermione,"
"Well, a lot of religions believe in 'God', and the Hindus have many gods. Of course there are the Hell gods." Hermione said.
"Great, 5 points to Gryffindor." Spike said.
"Now, as some of you know, me and Spike have fought a God before called Glory. She wanted to get back home, because she had been stuffed in a human body, a man named Ben. She had to get the key, which was Dawn, and do a ritual, bloodletting, i.e. draining Dawn of her blood to open the portal, which would of also unleashed hell on earth. We defeated her by me jumping into the portal, because Dawn and me have the same blood and all of the keys blood would have been needed to close the portal. Giles, my watcher at the time, killed the human form of Glory, by suffocation, at a similar time as my leap. This is a very complex subject as there are so many types of God. We will look at a few. This will also prepare you if the hell god, who is Ben, glory's ex-human, should come, as you'll know how to deal with it, at least defending yourself." Buffy explained.
Everyone stared at Dawn after that and she shifted uncomfortably under everyone's stares.
"Firstly we'll discuss the religious Gods…"
When the lesson was over Harry, Dawn, Hermione and Ron went to the common room to do homework. Dawn though couldn't concentrate on her History Magic report for Buffy telling the class about that night two years back gave her bad memories, she was also scared that Buffy would have to die again. A few tears dropped on to the parchment that she was using. Harry noticed and went to sit with her.
"What's up?" Harry asked with sympathetic smile.
"Oh, it's just remembering the summer of Buffy's death and wondering if is going to happen all over again with Ben." Dawn wiped the tears that were falling from her eyes.
"Don't worry, you're sister is the slayer and she will be victorious against Ben, she always will be." Harry comforted Dawn and soon she was working vigorously on the History of Magic report.
Ben watched the two teenagers interact from the open window. He wondered… if he could take Dawn and the boy and kidnap them, take them to a disused house and ask for Buffy's love as the price for getting them. "Hmmm… seems good," Ben thought to himself as he leapt down from the window and dashed across the grounds.
