"Fred can you pass me the syrup?" Buffy asked.

"Um Sure." Fred said shooting her a confused look as he reached across Harry to retrieve it.

Noone had any idea what was going on but it was obvious that something had happened between Buffy and Harry. Judging by his scowl and Her completely ignoring his existence it couldn't have been good.

But before anyone could question it Dumbledore arrived in a flurry of robes flying into the room his usual smile missing from his face.

"Albus, lovely for you to pop in." Molly began.

"I'm sorry to say this isn't a social call." Dumbledore cut her off. "Miss Black, Mr Potter, I believe an explanation is in order. The two teens hurried to explain, the mirror, the blood, the lights and reluctantly on Buffy's part the popping up of her slayer abilities.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

"You said something about a Mirror." James said as Willow finished explaining the spell.

"It was Buffy's." Willow nodded.

"We heard her voice and everything, why didn't it work?" Dawn demanded.

"Most likely because Buffy isn't dead, and we are...were." Lily explained.

"This Mirror wouldn't happen to have a large B engraved on it now would it?" James asked hopefully smiling as Willow nodded hurrying to retrieve it. "This is our Ticket back." James declared grinning holding the small compact.

"Do you suppose Harry's alright?" Lily asked hopefully tears dampening her green eyes.

"Only one way to find out." James said forcing a brave smile as he opened the compact clearing his throat quickly before calling clearly. "Buffy."

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

"Look you can scream at me later." Buffy sighed annoyed. "We need to figure out exactly what went into..."

"What's wrong?" Sirius asked concerned as she trailed off a unsure look upon her face.

"I just got Zapped." Buffy replied quietly reaching into her pocket. "Willow?" She asked hopefully opening as everyone seemed to lean forward all eyes fixed on the blonde.

"I'm afraid not Luv."

"James." Sirius gasped instantly recognizing the voice.

"Is it really you?" Buffy asked stunned ignoring the gasps and murmurs around her.

"It's us." He said tilting the mirror to reveal a tearfully smiling redhead.

"Lily!" Buffy grinned. "But how? I can't believe it's you."

"I know how you feel." James laughed.

"How do I know it's really you." Buffy demanded the smile falling from her face. This could very well be one of Voldemort's tricks, and she wasn't about to get her or anyone else's hopes up. She may have been very upset with Harry but, noone deserved that.

"After you disappeared I gave your wand to Dumbledore, I knew your things were being sent back to your parents and there was a good chance your Mum would burn the lot of it." James began seriously. "I knew one day you'd return because you'd told me you would yourself."

"My dream." She smiled remembering glancing at Dumbledore who nodded to confirm the story.

"You were the girl." James grinned. "You saved the world."

"I did my best." She shrugged.

"You look exactly the same." He said confused.

"I know, We don't know why either." Buffy explained. "You on the other hand don't."

"More handsome than ever right?" James teased.

"Buffy I need to know." Lily began tearfully. "The attack...Voldemort he...We died."

"About fifteen years ago." Buffy nodded sadly.

"And..." Lily trailed off unable to voice it.

"What happened to Harry?" James asked his voice wavering slightly with fear. "Is he alright..I mean he isn't..."

"Why don't you ask him yourself." Buffy said handing a still stunned Harry the mirror.

"Harry!"James exclaimed as his face came into view.

"Oh look at him James, he's all grown up." Lily sobbed happily seeing him alive and well.

"Mum, Dad." Harry whispered still reeling, this wasn't like the last time he'd seen them in a looking glass, this wasn't them smiling and waving, all an illusion. His parents were there, alive, talking to him. Granted it was from another world but it was the closest he'd ever come to having them back.

The others had left giving him some privacy as he spoke with his parents for the first time. He could hear snippets of their discussion in the hallway but he didn't care about any of it all that mattered was his parents staring back up at him.

"Sorry to cut this short Harry but we need to speak to them." Sirius said walking up behind him and placing a hand on his shoulder.

"Padfoot, is that you?" James grinned."Who else is there?"

"Moony is here as well." Sirius grinned back at him as Harry angled the Mirror to show his smiling friend.

"Move your big head so I can see too." Lily said shoving James.

"I want to talk to my sister!" A angry voice demanded.

"Dawn!" Buffy said shoving Sirius aside.

"BUFFY!" Dawn Squealed seeing her.

"Dawnie, are you ok?" Buffy asked concerned.

"OH MY GOD!" Dawn exclaimed. "You're a teenager!"

"I know." Buffy sighed.

"AND British!" Dawn laughed. "I'm so telling Xander."

"Shut up Dawn." Buffy growled.

"Buffy's teenaged and British!" Xander laughed. "Is she wearing tweed? I have to see this."

"Me too!" Willow insisted a shoving match occurring on their side of the mirror.

"This is getting bothersome." Buffy said.

"You said bothersome!" Dawn laughed. "You turned into Giles!"

"Let me talk to James." Buffy said glaring at her sister. "Just for a second." She added at Dawns hurt look.

"Apparently being British is bad in this world?" James said confused as his face reappeared in the mirror.

"Long story." Buffy sighed. "Do you have your wands?"

"We do." James nodded.

"Count of three?" Buffy said drawing her wand as she set the small compact on the floor.

"One, two." James began.

"Three." Buffy said pointing her wand at it and saying a spell. "Much better." She grinned as the Mirror grew to the size of a doorway.

"Oh my god is that a school uniform!?" Xander said doubling over in laughter.

"Good to see you too Xan." Buffy said rolling her eyes.

"Stop, I cant take it anymore." Xander said rolling on the floor.

"Do shut up." Buffy glared. "Willow!" She grinned spotting the redhead.

"Can Say Bloody hell." Xander demanded mockingly. "Please?"

"No." Buffy pouted crossing her arms over her chest as she glared at her friend. "You can make fun of me later."

"And I will trust me." Xander grinned.

"I need to know how Lily and James ended up in your world." Buffy said ignoring him.

"We did a spell." Willow admitted. "To bring you back."

"But we got them instead." Faith finished stepping up behind her. "Hey B, looking good."

"Don't even start with me Faith." Buffy glared.

"Wouldn't dream of it." Faith smirked.

"About this spell." Dumbledore said walking up behind Buffy.

"Professor!" Lily and James grinned.
