You know I had second thoughts about the part with Xander and Harmony, but before I could remove it, my son uploaded it. I've already started to fix the mistakes in the first story. So don't be surprised if the Xander and Harmony part will be fixed.
As for the abrupt change, I felt that my son and I could write a half a page explaining that Mrs. Granger and Mrs. Weasley were concerned about they're kids, but I thought screw it lets just get to the good part. Maybe on the rewrite I'll fix it.
Susan: Thank you very much.
Megeara Angela Nicole McGwire: Thanks, and yes my son is weird. By the way can you use a shorter name? It's hard to type.
A message from Son Grimm: ….my father….meh, whatever. And he doesn''t mean the same weird as you mean Meg. ///_^. Oh yeah and check out our new website at and message board at . Thanks fer reading.

A History Lesson Voldemort's Layer
As Voldemort sat at his darkened table for supper, Catherine snuggled up too him in a dark robe. "Voldy, my brilliant dark master…" She murmured in her ear as the door opened with a voice sighing.
"Geeze mom, get a room." Voldemort smirks at the notion but then turns his attention to Amy.
"Dear girl, what have you to report of our siege of the House of the Phoenix?"
Amy sighed. "We were doing quite well. We killed the guy with the freaky eye and the dweeb from the ministry that was acting as a spy for Dumbledor. We also were able to wound many of them including…" She produced a bloody dagger. "Voldemort himself.
Voldemort laughed at that, darkly. "Presumed dead or dying?"
Amy nodded. "Yes. But we weren't able to finish the job."
Voldemort nodded, not that much unpleased with the fact Harry didn't die. He put fear into the boy and his "friends". "Go on."
"Well, it seems the witch we were telling you about, brought her little friends into this. The slayer included."
"Slayer, I've heard about that. But that's only in legends."
Catherine looked at Voldemort with rage. "Oh no dear. She is all too real. She was the one who helped to trap me in that statue."
Amy smiled though. "I don't believe she survived. I slammed her through a couple walls. Not even a slayer could survive that mother." Catherine nodded, pleased. "But we lost the rest of the Death eaters you gave me."
Voldemort shrugged. "There's always more. Besides, we took the enemy down a notch. They won't be ready to go head to head against us for a while, will they beloved." He kisses Catherine and gestures for Amy to leave, which she does shaking her head.
Looking at Voldemort, Catherine suddenly turned to him and said, "Darling, as much as I'd like to say that you are right…you're wrong. We need these people as much as they need us. If it weren't for them, we wouldn't be here now. We should do something for them…maybe a tribute to the fallen'."
Voldemort almost snapped at her, but then started to begin to see her side. They are scared of him…true, but even Gods show their worshippers that they matter! Without them, Voldemort would be nothing.
Again looking at Catherine he said, "Quite right, Catherine, we should do a tribute to the fallen. I have an idea but it may take a while to start…"

6:30 am
Harry woke up a little early today, took a shower, dressed, and met up with Ron and the girls, Luna and Hermione. The four were going to catch some breakfast and explore the old mansion before anyone woke up. It didn't turn out like that though. The females were already up and most of them taking showers themselves clothed only in bathrobes which piqued Ron's interest greatly.
The group made their way to the kitchen where they heard several people moving about. There picking up his breakfast was Xander and Faith as Harry stood agape for a few seconds contemplating her new hair color. Harry then turned to Ron who was speechless; watching Faith walking around in a pair of black gym shorts and a white t-shirt tied up at the belly, showing a piercing. Hermione saw this and smacked him on the side of the head. Amanda appeared to grab a dish and get something to eat from the buffet.
After they ate, Xander told the wizarding teenagers to be in the gym in a half hour then, with Faith jumping on his back, he gave her a piggyback ride down the hall. Harry then turned to the right to actually see Mrs. Weasley up and about helping the girls with the cleanup. He felt it was good to see her up and about after the Percy's death.
They slowly made their way to the gym stopping to peer outside at the twenty girls doing calisthenics. Some stood out as most likely leaders of what seemed to be squads of them. They stood amazed.
"Yes, it is quite breathtaking isn't it Potter?" The four look around to see McGonnagal standing behind them with a warm grin on her face. "It seems, as though we may have some friends in our battle with Voldemort." She continues.
"Professor," Harry began. "What's going to happen now?"
McGonnagal shakes her head. "I'm not sure Potter. A few days ago nothing like this was even in our wildest imagination. Now it seems as though the forces of good and evil are pulling us together for a final fight as it may be."
The four exchanged glances until Hermione jumped in with a question. "What about school…"
"Ahh Ms. Granger. There will be no need to worry about that. It will start in two days at the usual time. But we must keep Dumbledor's ailment secret. No one must know their only hope was gravely injured last night. Hope must survive."
Hermoine nodded but continued. "Then what will happen if…"
"If the Death Eater's come my girl, we will have more help then you could possibly imagine. Just look outside." The girls moved in unison, while Buffy, Faith and Kennedy supervised them, correcting the girls' stance or form.
Xander stood in front of the Wizards watching them closely, while DeOgan, Giles, Dawn and Lana watched. Many were quite surprised to see Lana there at the Slayer Mansion. They quickly crowded about her with questions, but when Xander came in with the others, they quickly stopped and were arranged in groups.
"Okay this is self defense 101. You will be learning how to defend yourself without wizarding magic. We will be learning hand-to-hand combat in the first stage. The second stage will be weapons training. This does not mean that you will be an expert, so don't assume that you can now beat up a Slayer. She will beat you hands down every time, even if you were a fifth degree black belt. These lessons are to be used only if necessary. Mostly just to give you confidence if you are ever in a fight. Also remember that if you are in a fight, anything goes! If you have to scratch at their eyes, kick them in the groin or throw dust in they're eyes, do it! Giles anything to add? "Xander said as he looked towards Giles. Shaking his head Xander continued, "Any questions ?"
Pointing to a Wizard in the back the person asked, "What's the 101 for?"
Giles and the others smiled as Xander failed miserably trying to explain.
"Are you saying that we should cheat, that's not our way?"
Giles Answered the question, "Then you will die." The others just gulped.
As this was being said, Mr.Granger and Mr. Weasley entered in borrowed sweats. Even injured Mr. Granger, a retired Falcan Island sergeant, was there to help out. Xander and the others nodded to him and continued on.

Giles looked up and placed his glasses on his head after a quick cleaning. "We have lost three individuals. They sacrificed themselves to save others. These people are Percy Weasley, Alistor 'Mad Eye' Moody and Kathryn L. Canfield. Pleases take a moment of silence to honor the fallen. Along with these, Mrs. Petunia Dursley must be counted as well. Her death was the beginning of this bloody massacre in which brought you here and since then, her husband Vernon has been admitted to the mental ward in Liverpool."
"Wounded is Mr. Bob Granger, who was shot in the shoulder. Professor Albus Dumbledor, stabbed in the stomach and shot in the leg. DeOgan who was shot during the rescue and several other's including Spike. At the end of the meeting you can visit these people in the medical center on the first floor. Alright," taking a big breath he said, "questions?"
Hands immediately rose up, so Rupert picked one. "Please stand and introduce yourself."
"Umm…hi…I'm Nymph…Tonks, and I wanted to ask who are you people?" Several other Wizarding World people shook their heads also.
So Giles along with the rest of the Scoobies explained their life to the occupants of the Wizarding World…
Two Hours Later
After the Condensed
Version of the Scooby Lives
"So…your telling us that you chose to fight this war without slayer powers Mr. Harris?" asked Mr. Weasley.
Xander said "Yep! And call me Xander, everyone else does."
"Why??"
"Once I found out, I just couldn't ignore it any longer… Could you?"
Mr. Weasley and several others just nodded they're heads in understanding.
Another hand went up, and Giles pointed at the individual.
"What happens now?"
The doors burst open revealing a very pissed off Willow, Lirio and two-dozen Wiccas plus Thirty additional Slayers and Watchers from around the globe. Along with them were Dawn, Dudley Dursley, Fred and George Weasley, Mr. Granger in a wheel chair and…Professor Albus Dumbledor.
Willow stared at the occupants in the room with silent fury. As she opened her mouth, silence was the only other sound. "Ok, now they did it!!!"

6:00 PM
Harry started down the hall on his own. The day was beginning to get to him. Everything was happening so fast, he had no time to think. He watched his friends die, and he was helpless to do anything and has since found out the other muggles he thought were friends were more then what they seemed. Willow was even a wicca who seemed to possess limitless energies.
As he traveled down the hallway, he began to hear voices. "…come on. I am not going to, be interviewed by Andrew." "But Dawn,. I think a weekly publication will…enlighten us and bring us closer together. A sort of newsletter showing our accomplishments and besides, you can take a picture posing with your guns."
Harry sees Dawn and another guy turn the corner. "Andrew, I did not learn how to shoot just to be photographed with guns…uh…" The two stop as they see Harry was staring at them with both eyebrows raised. "Hey Harry…" Dawn starts. "Ah yes, the famous Harry Potter, or at least I've been told your famous among the wizards. I am Andrew, a new watcher underneath Giles." He moves his hand out to shake Harry's as Dawn sighs. "Oh come off it Andrew."
The two
argue as they continue off down the hall, Dawn pulling Andrew.
"What, I was just trying to…" "Shut up Andrew. And leave the kid alone, he's
been through enough as it is.
Slayer Mansion
Day 2
Harry and Ron come screaming out the back door. Behind them cries of anger are being sent in their direction. Ron trips but is then quickly helped up by Harry as they rush to the stables and bar the door. Exhausted, they turn their back to the door. "Harry mate, you think," Ron stops to catch his breath," They're out there…?" Soon a banging on the door begins as the two boys jump back into something and they give a yell of surprise.
DeOgan smiles gently as he's standing next to Xander who continues.
"What did you do this time? Leave the toilet seat raised?" The two boys shake their heads.
"This is crazy. We didn't do anything. All we did was go and get some cereal and things turned ugly."
The two older guys looked at each other and nodded. "Your dead."
They said in unison. "What for, all we did was take a box…" Ron tries to start, but is cut off by DeOgan.
"Was it the Coco Puffs?"
"Well yes but…"
"The slayers are highly territorial when it comes to things rich with chocolaty goodness." Xander continued.
Harry then shook his head. "But it was already empty." The two men stopped, looked at each other again and nodded as they opened the door to the mob of angry slayers.
"Ok ladies. Listen up. We are going out to get new cereal for you and on the way back, if you let the boys here live we'll pick you up some chocolate chip cookies." The girls look at each other, then to Xander and finally to the boys before they shrug and walk off.
"You guys were amazing!!!"
"Thanks a lot Xander" Ron and Harry compliment the two as they leave.
DeOgan looks at Xander as the boys are halfway to the manor. "Should we have told them that we ate the rest of the cereal?"
"Are you nuts we'd a gotten killed!" Xander turns around with a grin.
Later that Day
Snape wasn't in the mood for any funny business. This place was a mad house. Nothing worked the way it should and Snape was going to be so happy when they finally left to start the year the next day.
The world was beginning to make less and less sense to Snape as he walked down the halls, sneering at the girls who had the gall to sneer right back at him. Turning the corning he bumped into Willow. "Oh it's Mr. Gloomy puss? Coming to say hi?"
Snape was in no mood for this girl to get in his way. "Girl, I'm in no mood to be…"
"To be what? This is our home Mr. Snappy. We can do anything we want. You're the guest remember…"
Suddenly Kennedy walked by. "Will, me and Buffy need your help for a second." Will nods giving her best girl a quick kiss on the lips as Snape's eyes become very wide for a moment.
"Be there in a sec babe." She continues as Kennedy continues down the hall.
"Sorry cranky pants, I've got to go. Probably something to do with saving your lives. Think about it." She says as she walks away leaving a dumbfounded Snape just gaping at her. He has got to leave before this place drove him insane.
Somewhere in the
Wizarding World
Midnight
The Death eater was running like he never ran before. He didn't know what was chasing him but it was fast and agile and nothing stood in its way. His two partners were taken down so suddenly that they barely had time to use the suicide spell, so that they didn't talk.
The night air was brisk as his robe's covered him in blackness through the darkened forest, looking back every so often just to make sure his pursuer was falling behind.
He tripped once, then got back up and continued. He looked behind himself once more and realized that the dark cloaked figure pursuing him was nowhere to be found. He didn't trust it though as he turned back around just in time to see an arm come out, and clothes line him.
In a second he got out his wand to do the suicide spell, but this time, the wand was kicked out of his hand and he was pulled up by his collar and turned around to face his aggressor.
"Hello, we have a question, and you have an answer." The blonde girl pulled back her robe, smiling at him. "What's Mortevold planning on? And I insist you answer or else I may have to get all ruff and stuff and I just got my nails done."
"Umm…that's Voldemort." BAM!
"Damn it, I did break a nail!"
"You okay there B? Yah' look a little upset?" Buffy just gives Faith a dirty look.
