Buffy, the witchy vampire slayer

BIG SUMMARY: Buffy is an eleven year old witch and friends with the Hogwarts marauders (a year older), until her parents tells her they're moving to LA, because they wants to take her away from all the 'magic-stuff' (They don't want to accept the fact that she's a witch). Four years later, she's called as the slayer.

Reviews respond:
Willow Evenstar: Hi Emi! I'm glad you liked the chappie. And yeah, poor Padfoot. But he only got himself to blame! Of course you can review for OotB only. No problemo. I understand if it's confusing. I mean, I write these stories, and even I find it confusing! Anyway, I'm glad you'll make longer reviews (that's something every author wants), so it's cool. Byes!
Hidden in the Darkness: Hi there! Yeah, I guess it was an educational chapter in that way – don't drink. Oh, primitive Buffy was hilarious, although that episode isn't the best there is out there. Beer bad is not the only episode our dearest Slayer got herself drunk by the way – Life Serial is another one. I guess some people never learn…
artimis-sandstorm: I though it was! I mean, last chapter (and neither is this one) wasn't really important for the storyline in any more way than making the time go faster. I'm glad you liked it, though. And yeah, Sirius is great, and I'm actually glad he's not like Angel (two vampires with a soul is enough). That would only be weird. Btw, I like your idea! I'll probaply let Angel do a visit soon…you just gave me an idea for it, and maybe helped me to get past my writers block! Thanks!
Just Me (anonymous): Hi! I'm glad you liked it. And yes, Angel will probaply show up soon, but I want to develop Buffy/Sirius relationship a little bit more first. I have now (after a lot of thought, thinking, brooding, dreaming, pacing, more thinking, crying, laughing, dancing, brooding a bit more, even more thinking) decided if I'm going to kill James/Lily off, and the result is… I'm not telling! Where would the fun be in that? Although if I do, I'll consider your suggestion! Byes!
Tituba: Hi Katherine! Oh, don't worry about it! You reviewed now, right? I'm happy you like the fic, and yeah, they're mean, but Buffster and Siri only got what they deserved.
–Smirks evilly-
Damia – Queen of the Gypsi's: Hi Damia! Did I suggest I should rewrite them? Well, I'm not going to. (At least I don't think so) Except maybe my Dark Angel story, but that one sucks. Badly. My crossovers don't, so don't worry about it. Oh, as for giving them the hangover potion. Nah. And the others don't need it, 'cause they're not drunk. Byes!

"I don't get it!" Buffy whined, and let her head fall down on the table.
"It's too hard!"
Lily sighed.
"Buffy, come on. You wanted to learn magic again, and here's the chance."
"Yeah, but…I have a headache!" She complained.
Lily raised her eybrow.
"And who's fault is that?"
"Yours. You guys wouldn't give me a hangover potion."
"Well, you should've thought of that before you got yourself drunk. It's all your fault. Now, one more time."
Buffy groaned.
"You suck."
"Fine," Lily said. The hormones were once again getting the best of her temper.
"I'll just leave, and you can deal with this on your own." She started to leave the library, swinging her book-bag over her shoulder.
"Lily…"
Lily turned around with an angry expression.
"Don't you 'Lily' me, Buffy Summers!" With that, she stalked out of the room, leaving Buffy staring sadly at the half-transfigured feather-quill. It hooted softly. (It was supposed to turn into an owl, but the only thing the quill and an owl had in common for the moment, was the hooting and the feathers)
Buffy pinched her lips hard together, and pointed her wand determinedly at the quill. There was a small steam of smoke, and a small 'poof' as the quill exploded, and took fire.
Buffy panicked, and tried to stop the fire by waving over it. Of course, this only made it worse.
'Okay, Buffy, think! Water-spell, water-spell…' Buffy egged herself on, but came up with nothing.
There was now a big stream of bad-smelling (probably poisonous smoke) coming from the burning quill, and the fire was growing larger. Buffy grabbed a fat book from one of the shelves, and hit the fire repeatedly with this. Finally, it stopped.
Without looking back, Buffy grabbed her things, and left the library. The next person to sit at the table, would be very confused as to why there was a large, black-burned circle in the middle of the table.

Willow and Remus were playing wizarding chess, when Lily came storming through the portrait hole, throwing herself at the sofa with a frustrated sound.
"Umm, Lils…" Remus said, slowly.
"Not now, Remus!" Lily snapped, and Remus closed his mouth.
"Where's James?" Lily asked, after a short silence.
"He went off somewhere with Sirius. I think maybe the kitchens. Sirius wanted coffee." Willow informed her, before moving back her attention to the game.
"Queen to D6" She said, and her queen made her move and clubbed down one of Remus' towers.
"Hah!" Remus triumphantly, as his horse could in turn, take down the queen.
"KILL THE QUEEN, KILL THE QUEEN!" He egged on the horse, and Willow groaned.
"Can you be a little quiet over there? Some of us have actually got a headache!" Lily informed them, and Remus snickered.
"Only the pregnant ones…"
"I heard that, Remus Lupin!" Lily called from the sofa, and Remus had the decency to look sheepish.
"You know, Remus, I didn't think you were the type to get so excited by a game of chess," Willow said, before making her move.
"Knight to E5"
"Oh, I'm not…only when I'm winning," he grinned.
"You haven't won yet!" Willow retorted, and Remus grin grew wider.
"I haven't? Well, let's do something about that. Queen to C4." Willow could only watch with a horrified look, as Remus' queen made her way over to where her king was standing, obviously shivering with fear. Two seconds later, the only sign that Willow's white king had ever existed, was the small pieces shattered all over the chessboard.
Willow shook her head.
"I never knew chess could be so violent. You must loose tons chess pieces like this…"
Remus grinned again.
"Didn't you forget something? I'm a wizard." He lifted his wand.
"Reparo!"
All the broken pieces and other damaged chess players were suddenly whole again, and Willow looked at Remus in awe.
"That spell could really come in handy…"
Remus shrugged.
"I could teach you if you'd like…" He did his best to keep the hopefulness out of his voice, but was failing badly. Willow didn't seem to notice, though, as she beamed at the werewolf.
"Really? That would be great!"
They were once again interrupted, this time by Buffy, who like Lily, stormed through the portrait hole. The only thing different, though, was that Buffy was smelling - burned.
"Buffy?"
"Don't talk to me!" Buffy snapped, and stormed into her quarters, slamming the door shut with a loud 'bang', that made all the paintings fall down from the walls, and all of the room's occupants jump in their seats in shock.
"I guess she wasn't in the best mood…" Willow stated.
"BUFFY! DO YOU HAVE TO SOUND LIKE A HERD OF MOUNTAIN TROLLS WHENEVER YOU ARRIVE SOMEWHERE?!" Lily screamed, and Remus and Willow winced. If Buffy's slamming had been bad, Lily's screaming was ten times worse, which she obviously wasn't aware of, and neither one of them wanted to be the one to point that out to her.
A second later, the portrait hole opened once again, and Sirius climbed in, followed by James. Sirius looked a lot better - he wasn't so pale, and he actually smiled.
'Guess the coffee helped,' Remus thought, glad he didn't have to deal with another angry person - Lily and Buffy was enough.
"Wow, Lils, I didn't know you could scream like that," Sirius joked, ignoring Willow's warning gestures from her end at the room.
Lily turned to him with an expression that would make even the bravest wizard back up. Sirius gulped, and Willow hit herself in the head with a book.
"Idiot…" She muttered. She started to count. One…two…three…four…five…
"…AND WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT, SIRIUS BLACK?! ARE YOU SAYING THAT I AM A LOUD PERSON?!"
Sirius looked at her in shock.
"I-I didn't mean…"
"OF COURSE YOU DIDN'T MEAN IT! YOU NEVER MEAN ANYTHING! YOU'RE NEVER SERIOUS…"
"Yes I am," Sirius said, trying to joke away the situation he'd gotten himself into, by making Lily laugh. He wasn't successful.
"…AND YOU ARE ALWAYS JOKING AROUND!" Lily continued, and Sirius gulped.
"DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA - ANY IDEA – ANY…ANY…" Lily stopped here. If it was because she needed air, or if she couldn't find anything else to say, Willow didn't know, but she hoped this meant she'd stop screaming. What happened next, however, wasn't better.
She started to cry.
First, it came like a shaky breath, then, like a sob, and before they knew what happened, a big stream of tears fell down her face, without seeming to stop.
James went forwards her, trying to give her a hug, but was pushed away.
"DON'T TOUCH ME! YU'RE THE ONE THAT MADE ME LIKE THIS! WEAK AND EMOTIONAL, AND…WEAK…A-AND…"
She started to sob again - when James tried to embrace her again, she didn't pull away. Instead, she leaned against his broad chest, crying her eyes out, as he whispered soothingly words in her ear. After he said something, and Lily nodded, they left for their chambers.
Sirius was the first one to break the silence.
"Okay, if that's how a woman gets when she's pregnant, remind me to never get kids."
This earned a pillow in the head from Willow.
"Hey, what was that for?!" Sirius cried.
"For you being such an idiot," Willow said silkily. "And I thought your head needed something soft to rest on. It can't be comfortable lying on such of a hard, thick-head."
Sirius glared, as Remus burst into laughter.
"Haha, really funny. James is the thick-headed one, I'm the charming one."
Willow raised her eyebrows.
"And the oh, so humble one to, I presume?"
"No, that's Moony."
"I'm not humble!" Remus cried, and it was Sirius time to raise his eyebrows.
"Moony, learn to recognize a compliment when you get one."
Remus blinked, going over what Sirius said in the head, slowly. As he realized that what Sirius had said, had been a compliment, he blushed.
"And you need to stop doing that too," Sirius continued, which only made Remus blush harder.
"I think it's sweet," Willow said, trying to save Remus from the embarrassment. it didn't help, as he grew even redder.
"I don't think that helped," Sirius stated.
"Oh, shut up," Remus muttered.
Sirius shook his head sadly.
"Oh, Moony," he sighed. "Blushing isn't the way to capture a girl's heart." Willow looked from Sirius to Remus, and a wicked smile grew on her lips, as an idea crossed her mind.
"Oh, I wouldn't be to sure about that," she said, and gave Remus a kiss, right on the lips, before rising up and leaving.
Remus just sat there, not realizing what just happened. Sirius hadn't moved either, and if his jaw would've been able to hit the floor, it would've.
"Wow, Remus…how did you do that? Was it really the blushing?"
Remus blinked, dumbfounded.
"I-I don't know."
"Well, maybe I should try that. Do you think it works on blondes too?"
A/N: And another chapter up! I hope you enjoyed it. Please ReViEw!
