AUTHOR'S NOTE This letter is written by Buffy during "Graduation Day Part 2" after she outlines her plan to everyone else. Sirius is in hiding with Buckbeak.
DISCLAIMER Don't own either…but there are a few characters from both canons that I wouldn't mind owning *cough*OzSpikeWeasleyTwinsOliver*cough* *innocent look*
Sarah I'm glad you like it! This is the middle chapter…unfortunately it's not that long.
Wicca Chick Here's an update for you! *grin*
Svarra You're pretty smart *wink* But who knows…I could have anything happen…
Praying4faith I have no idea how old Sirius is…he's probably as old as James and maybe James was in his 20's when Harry was born?
Catlimere He couldn't write back when he was in Azkaban but now that he's out, he will be.
Lady Cinnibar Thanks!
Scarlett Thanks! I like your author name…makes me think Gone with the Wind!

Dear Sirius,
Retirement as a Slayer doesn't last that long. My stint in L.A. only lasted one summer. While I was there, I got sucked into a Hell dimension to save a bunch of teenagers. I guess it was then that I realized that demons would follow me and I'd have to fight them wherever I went. So I came home to Sunnydale.
So much has happened this year. I don't even know where to start. First I guess I should explain Slayer-lore so there's no confusion. A Slayer is called only when the Slayer before her dies. So, even though I was only dead for a few minutes, a new Slayer was called when the Master killed me. Her name was Kendra. She was a sweet foreign girl, but had a weak mind. She was killed by a vampire the night I killed Angel.
Then Faith shows up. She's the Slayer after Kendra. She was…a bad girl. That's the nicest way I can put it. She loved Slaying. Like, really loved it. But one night she went too far and killed a man. And then she just pretended it didn't happen. She didn't even care!
The Mayor of Sunnydale turned out to be evil. Then Faith joined him. Angel was brought back to life by some mystical force and was helping us until the Mayor sent Faith to poison him.
The only way to cure him was for him to drain the blood of a Slayer. Faith and I fought. I tried to kill her to bring her back for Angel to feed on, but I put her into an irreversible coma instead. So I let him feed on me.
He almost killed me, but in the end, we're both ok. Now all I have to worry about is the Mayor. On Graduation Day (which is tomorrow), he's going to ascend and become this huge snake demon thing. We have this plan that unifies all the students against him and ends with me blowing up the high school with him in it.
Imagine. Every kid's dream of blowing up their high school and all its homework too and I get to do it. And if it doesn't work, we all die. But at least we survived high school first.
Sincerely,
Buffy
A loud squawk echoed through the cave. Sirius looked up from Buffy's letter. "Shh Buckbeak!" The hippogriff looked back at him with pleading eyes. Sirius rolled his eyes and threw the creature a dead mouse to eat.
He'd done it. He'd finally escaped Azkaban and had his revenge on Peter. It pained him still to think of how the fourth Marauder had betrayed them to that scum Riddle. With a shock, he realized that Buffy was going through the same with this Faith girl.
And for the first time, Sirius felt useful to the Slayer. Provided she was still alive after the Ascension, at least he could offer some advice. He pulled out parchment and a quill.
"Dear Buffy…"
