A/N
Sorry about the confusion about the chapters, I just deleted a chapter, that wasn't technically a chapter, so if you haven't read the chapter before this you should! That sounds better in my head, but please just double check you have read the previous chapter. To the thing about Halfrek and being a Vengeance demon or a Justice Demon, When Dawn wishes that no one will leave, and they finally get Halfrek to come to the house, she says that Vengeance Demons prefer to be called Justice Demons. Umm thanks for those of you who did review and on with the story.

Chapter Eleven
Buffy's POV
Dawn, Xander and I were coming home from our regular patrol, when we saw the lights on in our house. We're the only ones living there at the moment and we didn't know of any visitors. We drew our weapons and slowly made our way up to the door. It was unlocked so we crept inside. Then we saw something none of us expected. In the living room was a girl who from behind looked to be about Dawn's age. She spun around, and held a strange resemblance to Willow. The girl had tears in her eyes and she threw herself on me, Dawn and Xander.
"Oh Buffy I missed you so much." The girl said to me and she had a distinctly English accent.
"Do I know you?" I asked the girl.
"Oh Buffy, I know I don't sound or look like me, but I am Willow. I am telling you the truth." She said.
"Willow? How…what happened to you?" Dawn said exasperated. "Where have you been all this time?"
"Can we talk more in the morning?" Willow asked us. We all nodded, "I'll just sleep on the couch." She lay down and was instantly asleep.
Third Person (The next morning)
Willow woke early, she had been crying in her sleep. She couldn't shake the image of Neville just hanging there, his dead eyes looking at her. All night she had clutched his wand. She composed herself and went into the kitchen to find something to eat. As she entered she found Dawn drinking some coffee, alone and looking very pensive.
"Hey, Dawn…" Willow said cautiously. Just then Buffy and Xander cam in.
"Ohhh, coffee, caffeine goodness" Buffy said. Dawn handed out cups of coffee to everyone.
"So I guess you want to know where I have been all this time, and why I'm so…young."
Willow said with a sigh.
"Yeah that would be nice…" Dawn said a hint of resentment in her voice.
"Dawn…" Buffy warned. She looked at Willow.
"Well, after I left," willow said her face looking down. "I went to England. I found a place to stay and I met a boy…" Willow proceeded to tell them about everything, about the wizarding world and then finally about Neville. By the end she was in tears. The box with Neville's stuff sat on the table. Xander hadn't moved once through the whole story, but now he went to comfort his oldest friend. By now it was getting towards dinner time.
"Buffy I know I have only been back for a while but I have to go back…Angel, Cordy, they need to know I'm alright…" Willow pleaded. The two sat on the couch.
"I know you need to go back, that's why I'm going with you…" Buffy said with a firm tone.
"Oh, you are so not going to ditch me, I'm coming too…" They looked up to See Dawn standing at the door, with Xander behind her.
"Well, there's no way I'm letting my best friend leave alone again." Xander said.
"Well, we can leave tomorrow at about 11 o'clock and then we will arrive at about 7 o'clock around dinner." Willow explained.
"How exactly will we be traveling?" Xander asked.
"Magic." Willow said.
"Will, are you sure that's a good idea?" Buffy said hesitantly.
"Buffy, I got here with it and I was using it daily for months before hand. I can handle it." Willow said a-mater-factly. She also gave her resolve face for good measure. They all saw it and decided to get packing. Xander stayed behind for a while to talk to Willow.
"Xander, you know I didn't want to hurt you, after Kennedy died I had felt different. I just needed to get out…" She told him.
"I know and I still love you Willow. And I will always love you, but I have to get packing…" He said as he got up. Willow nodded and lay back on the sofa and fell asleep.
The next morning they awoke to the smell of Willow pancakes. She cooked them up breakfast and they told her what had been happening since she had gone. It approached 11 o'clock and they all assembled in the living room. They stood in a circle with the luggage in the middle. They linked hands and Willow teleported them.

Our World…
Max lay alone in his room, music played in his ears. He stared at the roof. He didn't like his life; he didn't like how he looked. He didn't want to live but he didn't want to die. He yearned for something different. He had secretly fallen in love with magic. He watched Buffy the vampire Slayer and he loved the Harry Potter series. But he knew nothing like that actually existed. He played in his mind the life he could live in different realities. It made him even sadder. When ever he saw something that moved him his skin tingled and it felt like someone and washed something warm and pleasant. It gave him the idea of being different and in his imagination the idea of magic.
He finally drifted into sleep.
He stood in a room of mist, his hands moved in front of him. He peered into the mist where a boy came forward or rather the shape of a boy.
"I need your help, your power…" the voice said.
"Why me?" Max said. Whoa he thought he had never been able to control speech in his dreams.
"Help me…" The voice said. He suddenly realized he was holding something, a piece of rolled up paper. He looked at it and then a sudden light flashed and h e woke up.
His body seemed moist like he had been in mist and he realized he was holding the same parchment. His eyes widened, he fainted from the shock, into a dreamless sleep.
The next day was Saturday, he awoke at 11'o'clock. The parchment had fallen to the floor. He grabbed it and set it on his desk. He showered and dressed, and sat down at his desk. He opened the scroll and saw words written.
Trasportilo ad un altro posto
Dove posso vivere nella pace
Dialo che l'alimentazione mi dà la resistenza
Per combattere con coloro che ha bisogno del mio aiuto
ora prend me via un migliore posto
E diami il controllo sulle mie alimentazioni
Ora trasmettami con tutte le cose I per possedere
A questo nuovo posto trasmettalo ora
Imploro i dii thy per aiutarlo a aiutare altri
Così trasmettalo via come guerriero
After the incantation was finished a wind picked up and lights flashed. The walls shook and seemed to crumble. Then in a flash of light he was gone…

Harry through himself on his beds, and drew the curtains around his bed. Ron and Hermione came in after him. They pulled the curtains open.
"Harry…" Hermione said softly
"Go away, and close the curtains!" Harry yelled.
"Hey don't lash out at her just because of some other tart." Ron yelled.
"Get out the both of you!!" Harry screamed. both huffed and left in silence. He swung the curtains shut violently, and buried his head in his pillow. He cried so softly and fell into a deep sleep.
Suddenly he was in a room of mist; he moved forward looking into the mist. Then he saw a figure, maybe a boy he thought.
"I'm coming…" said the voice
"Coming for what?" Harry asked
"I am coming to help you…soon" The voice said
Suddenly a flash of light and the boy was gone suddenly Harry was falling into and her jerk out of his dream and felt cold perspiration on his body. He calmed down and fell asleep again.

A/N
OK so I know this was different and kinda short. But the next one should be interesting…well always please read and review…the thing below is a translation of the incantation, which was in Latin.
Transport me to another place
Where I can live in peace
Give me power give me strength
To fight with those who need my help
Now take me away to a better place
And give me control on my powers
Now send me with all things I own
To this new place send me right now
I implore thy gods to help me help others
So send me away as a warrior
