Chapter 7: Again With Terror
Fire's Dew: Well, I don't really know if Dawn would. I guess she wants to tell people so they can react to her now and not later. If she told them later they might've thought she was keeping more secrets. I really don't know though.
willowwiccantara: It's okay, I like hyperness; it's cool. Thank you! Umm, I'm gonna keep Draco and Dawn together but she may fall for another character.
Asarielle: You'll find out why the Scoobs are at Hogwarts in a little.
fairysk8r: Was it a bad cliffhanger? Sorry, I like to add suspense and such.
Selene: Oh yes, Spike will meet Draco. I don't know about sicking Buffy on Pansy, she may hurt her a little too much. But we'll see!
Thanks for the reviews and supporting my fic! Please keep it up!!

"Oh god! Buffy, no!" Dawn screamed. Sirius was choking as he was held up against the wall by his throat by Buffy's hand.
"Buffy" Spike said, nice and calm. He took her hand away from Sirius' throat and took her aside and whispered some words into her ear. Dawn ran to Sirius' side to make sure he was okay.
"Dawn, what are you doing?" Buffy asked in a fierce voice.
"Buffy, I"
Buffy cut her little sister off. "Dawn!" Dawn jumped away from her father with her hands behind her back and looked down at her feet. Buffy swung her head to one side and then looked back up.
"I'm sorry, but he knows something and I wanna know too" Buffy said.
"It may take a while" Sirius said.
"I have all the time in the world" Buffy responded. Sirius reiterated everything he had said to Dawn to Buffy and the rest of the Scoobies.
"I knew it" Buffy whispered to herself.
"Knew what?" Xander asked.
"Him, I knew I saw him somewhere when he came to take Dawn away."
"How is that possible?" Sirius asked.
"Buffy!" a familiar voice called out.
"Giles!" Buffy screamed and she ran up to hug him followed by Willow and Tara. When they backed away Anya ran up to him and hugged him also.
"Uh, hello Anya" Giles said. She wasn't into hugging him much, only at times.
"Are you coming back to Sunnydale anytime soon?" she asked.
"Uh, no I don't think so."
"Good. Because you're not getting the store back."
"Thanks for telling me" he said and turned to the others. "What's he doing here?" Giles noted towards Spike.
"He had to come. To follow us of course" Buffy answered.
"No, I came to check on Dawn and to make sure you wouldn't hurt anyone. We all know what you'd do and none of them could stop you" Spike stepped in. Dawn smiled when he said he came for her. He was always like a dad to her.
"Whatever" Buffy said.
"How did you come here?" Giles asked.
"We flew and rode a train" Xander stated.
"But how?"
"I just told you."
"No, you have to be invited to come into Hogwarts. No human can just walk in at anytime."
Spike cleared his throat.
"Or undead people can just walk in here" Giles corrected.
"Thank you" Spike answered.
"What about me?" Anya asked.
"Or former demon."
"Thank you" she smiled.
"So, how did we get here?" Buffy asked. Tara raised her hand a little bit with her voice quivering.
"You did a spell?" Giles asked her.
"No, I was invited here when I was eleven, but my mom and dad wouldn't let me come. They didn't think magick was real and they thought it was a prank" Tara answered.
"Oh."
"I'm still confused about Dawn. I can't believe he put a spell on us, and her!" Buffy said.
Draco walked down the hall and saw all the commotion of the others. "What's going on?" he asked.
"Oh god, not another Spike" Xander muttered.
"Hey!" Spike yelled.
"Who's Spike?" Draco asked.
"This is Spike. And this is Xander, Anya, Willow, Tara, and my sister, the Slayer, Buffy" Dawn said to Draco. Every time she said someone's name, she pointed to them.
"Hmm, Spike almost looks as good as me" Draco said.
"Well, we're a smart ass aren't we?" Spike retorted.
"That's how he always is" Dawn said. "You just learn to ignore it after a while."
"Hey!" Draco said.
"Oh goodness. Who are you people?" a professor asked. It was Minerva McGonagall; she was with Snape and Dumbledore. He had a twinkle in his eye. Snape scowled as usual, but he stared at Willow. It made her uncomfortable and Tara could see it. Tara held Willow's hand and squeezed it. Once Snape saw that she grabbed the red head's hand he looked away.
Dawn and Sirius explained everything about them coming as Dumbledore listened in delight. Filch walked by and looked at them all. "Oh uh, Mr. Filch, could you please add six more chairs to the Head Table?" Dumbledore asked.
"Yea" Filch said and walked away. All six of the new people went to discuss some things with Dumbledore in his office while Sirius, Snape, and McGonagall assisted him.

Around an hour later, they walked in the dining hall. Everyone who was talking just stopped. Dumbledore showed them their seats and stayed standing to give his announcement.
"Everyone, we have some visitors. The Slayer and some friends. Do not bother them with your questions unless they say it's okay. Let's eat" he said as he held his hands up. Food appeared on the table and they ate.
