A/N: Here's the next. I hope you enjoy.
Disclaimer: I only own what you don't recognize.
Response: Just to answer a few questions. I am not that good with the math of figuring out how old they are.Buffy's birthday is sometime in July in this Fic and Lily's is two days before the end of the school year at Hogwarts. Lily will be eighteen right before Buffy turns sixteen.lets just say that they are in fourth year and not cause any more headache's trying to figure it out. I know that Lily is young to be having a relationship, but just bare with me. You really don't have to think about the ages that much.I hope.
Also, with Harry, I don't really plan to bring him in until towards the end of the story. I have big plans for how that happens but I'm not telling. I intend to mess with the events of Buffy the movie, and Btvs Season One and Two.when she sent Angel to hell.
I'm still deciding if I want to kill any characters in this fic. There are a few that I have in mind, but they may be needed later so I have to think it through better. Also, I think that I will try and like Peter in this story, however slimy and deceitful he appears in the actually Harry Potter books by JK Rowling.
I know I know. Buffy's father is mean and horrible.lets just say carma catches up to him...
I think that's it for the moment. Thank you to everyone who has reviewed this story so far. I love you guys! Oh, and a big 'HI and thankyou' to Calamire who has reviewed every chapter of all my Buffy/Harry crossovers. Thanks!
DISCOVERING A DESTINY
Chapter THREE.
Lily was concerned. Her little sister weighed hardly anything in her arms and she was trembling. She had brought Lily and her self to the Leaky Cauldron and was sitting the girl down in a seat in the back of the room.
Leaving her there with their things she moved up to the bar. "Tom!" She called to the youngish man behind the bar.
"Lily! How are you love?"
"Not to bad. I was wondering if I could use your fire place?"
"Of course you can, just come round here."
She stepped behind the bar and to the front of the fireplace. Taking a pinch of some powder she threw it into the fire and yelled, "James Potter." His head appeared in the fireplace immediately.
"Lily! What's happened?"
"It's Buffy, I need your help James. There isn't time to explain. Can you come help me. She can't floo on her own and I need to get my trunk through as well.:
"Where are you Lily? I'll come to you."
"I'm at the Leaky Cauldron."
"Okay, step back."
She did as he said and seconds later he fell out of the fireplace. "Lily, where is she?"
"Through here." She led the way to her little sister.
"Buffy?" He asked, crouching down in front of her.
"Who are you?"
"I'm James Potter. A friend of Lily's from school."
"Oh your that James." Buffy said a mischievous glint in her eyes briefly. Lily blushed. "She talks about you in her letters all the time."
"Buffy!" Lily admonished. The little girl only grinned half-heartedly back at her.
"Come on midget." James said to her and swept her into his arms before she could protest.
"Such a gentleman." Buffy giggled, wrapping her arms around his neck. She passed out.
"Buffy!" Lily cried in alarm.
"Don't worry Lils, I've got her." He said reassuringly, but he was in truth worried too. He led the way to the fire and quickly flooed to Godrics Hollow. Lily followed with her trunk and Buffy's bag.
"Mother!" James cried as soon as he had stepped out of the fireplace. Janet Potter came running.
"Oh dear, what happened?"
"She slipped and spilled a saucepan of boiling soup over herself." Lily lied easily.
"Oh the poor dear." She took Buffy out of James arms and hurried up the stairs muttering to herself.
"That's not really what happened is it?" He asked her worriedly.
"I really don't want to talk about it." She murmured. I feel as though I could sleep for a week but I kneed to know that Buffy is okay."
"Don't worry. Mum's a nurse. If anyone can help your sister it's her." Unconsciously he reached out and wrapped his arm around her and held her close. He led her to one of the Potters many spare rooms and made her sit.
She only burst into tears. "Shhh, you can tell me when your ready." He re- assured her and she nodded into his shirt.
"Thank you James. You are a really good friend." She replied sniffing.
"Get some sleep. Your sister will be fine and you can see her in the morning, I promise." He told her but she was already asleep. "Goodnight, Lily." He whispered to her, covering her with a blanket. He hesitated before pressing a soft kiss against her forehead.
He left the room turning the light out on his way. He didn't see her open her eyes and a small hopeful smile cross her face.
