When In Need

Summery: Buffy, Faith, Willow, and Cordy are sent to Hogwarts to help Harry fight Voldemort. There's a catch though. They have to go as their teenage selves! They're turned into 15 year olds and sent to Hogwarts in Harry's 5th year.

Disclaimer: Nothing belongs to me.

Note: Post Chosen, Pre-Angel season 5. Buffy n' Co. keep all their powers.

"Hey B! There's an owl at the window!" Faith yelled from the kitchen of their extra large flat in Rome.

"There's a what in the where?!"

"Owl. Window. Look."

"Why is there an owl in the window?"

"Hey, look it has a piece of paper on its leg." Willow said as she entered the room. Faith, being the only one who would go near it, to the letter of and read it out loud.

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

Headmaster: Albus Dumbledore

Dear Ms. Summers, Ms. Rosenburg, and Ms. Faith,

As you know, there is a world other then the human one. Well, really, there are 2. The demonic one and the magical one. It has come to my attention that you have defeated the largest evil in the world, the First Evil. The magical world is in dire need of help, since we are facing the biggest evil we have ever faced. Our situation will be explained soon. Don't be alarmed if someone just appears in your home, since it is one of our ways of transportation. Expect us to come as soon as you finish this letter.

Sincerely,

Albus Dumbledore

"Can you say cheesy? What kind of joke is this anyway? I swear if Andrew is up to one of his stupid schemes again I'll cut of his head." Buffy said crumpling the letter up and throwing it one the floor. Then a man dressed in what looked like a dress appeared in front of them.

"Damn." Faith said, realizing the letter was real.

"You said it." Willow replied, just as a lady dressed in the same clothes as the other man appeared with Cordy beside her.

"Hey guys. What's up?"

~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!~!!

"So what you're sayin' is that you want us to help you with you're fight against you're big bad?" Dumbledore nods, "As our teen selves?" He nods again, "And we have to go back to school?" He nods again, a smile growing on his face. "Is there history? Cuz' I never liked history." He smiles.

"Ms. Summers, there is history. You will have to take it with the other students unless I can find you another class in place of it, which I probably won't." She frowns and looks at Willow, Faith, and Cordy.

"So guys, yes or no?" Willow nod enthusiastically while Faith and Cordy look kinda unsure.

"That's like going back to highschool, B. I'm not a school person."

"Either was I Faith, but we have to help them. Their fate lies in the hands of a 15 year old kid. Like us 'member?" Faith agrees reluctantly.

"So, Cordy in or out?"

"Ya, I'm in I guess. I get to keep the visions right? It makes me special."

"All of you get to keep your powers. You will also have to learn witchcraft over the summer so there will be no suspicions at school. You can't tell anyone about this and if they find out report to me. You pose as exchange students from the U.S."

"Ya sure. What about Dawn and Xander? The new slayers need us, too. If we leave, we will be leaving Giles here with no back up."

"B, Giles will have Kennedy, Vi, and the other slayers that were with us in Sunnyhell. He'll be fine." Buffy was still unsure but went along with it anyway.

"So just take these potions and you'll be your younger selves in a minute or so." He handed them the potion and Faith downed hers in one gulp. Cordy smelled hers in distaste and drank it, disgusted with the stench. Buffy and Willow, who were use to stinky stuff, being that most demon blood smelled like shit, drank the potion without complaint.

"You people have to learn to make better smellin' potions and crap, cuz that's just…" Faith trailed off feeling slightly dizzy. When the feeling went away, she was her 15 year old self in the clothes she was in before the change. "Neat. The potion thing was worth it I guess. This means I can live longer right, me being 15 again and all?"

"You have all your memories and abilities you had when you were older, but the only way you can go back to being older is years, since there is no potion to reverse the effects that we know of. Feel free to try and find the reverse potion. Now on with business. After you pack, we'll take you shopping in the wizarding, what's the word? Ah, wizarding mall. You girls should love that, being that you have a set spending limit of what equals 1 million dollars in this world. Muggle, being a non-magic person, money is worth more in the magical world then here, but only buy a little. Am I forgetting anything? Oh, there is no electricity at Hogwarts so, Ms. Rosenburg, if you wouldn't mind charming any electric items that you will be bringing then you're set. We'll be back in 2 days to pick you up, so you'll have enough time to say good bye to your family and any other stuff you have to get done. See you then." Dumbledore disappeared a second later.

"So, what should we do now?"

There's the beginning of my story. This is what I thought of doing after I started Inseparable, which is a good story if you check it out. I haven't finished any of my stories but I have a short attention span so I lose interest in them quickly.

For some reason I always put Cordy in every story I write. Like in Ever After where I had Angel turn her too. But this story she will have a big part in it.

So I talked and I hoped you liked the beginning.
