Chapter 3

(Buffyverse: Night Time)

" What are you doing up this late Harry?"

The boy in question jumped slightly, and turned towards the voice. "Oh nothing Xander, just thinking about things…looking out the window." Xander walked up to Harry and placed on arm around Harry's shoulders.

" What trouble's you my son." He whispered jokingly, as to not wake the others. " Tell Papa Xander everything."

Harry turned back to the windows, watching as the rain fell down the glass, leaving tear marks. "It's just that- well I want to go home and see if everyone is alright. I miss everyone, heck I'd be happy just to see Snape…"

" Ah." Xander replied sympathetically. " I would feel the same way if I were to travel threw time, and not know where I was, leaving behind all my friends and traveling with my enemy-," Xander paused as he looked at Harry's solemn face. "-And I see this isn't helping." Using a gentler tone he replied "No worries Harry, Willow is the best witch I know and she…well all of us won't stop until we send you and blonde-boy junior home."

Harry turned to look at Xander, just staring intently and then a small smile appeared on his face. "Thanks Xander for trying to cheer me up. You remind me of my best friend at home, his names Ron." Xander answer Harry's statement with a goofy grin. " I have another friend to her name is Hermione. She's kinda like Willow, she loves to read and learn knew, Hermione the book worm." Harry replied laughingly.

" You just like me, Willow and J-," Xander paused, a sad look crossed his face. " And J-jesse. We were inseparable, the bestest of friends. U-until something happen to Jesse, now it's just me and Willow." Xander tried to smile but it came out a wobbled attempt.

Harry could see Xander was battling some inner demons and decided to stay silent until Xander was ready to talk again. ' I wonder what happen to Jesse, it must have been something horrible. He looks just like me whenever I think of mom and dad- oh maybe Jesse was like a brother…'

" Xander and Harry, I gave up my bedroom for you two and your not even sleeping in it!" A feminine voice said from behind the two thinkers, when no reply came Willow decided to talk. "It's really nasty outside huh?"

" I don't mind it, I like the rain actually. Its calming." Was Harry reply. " Back home, at Hogwarts, I used to ride on my broomstick and play in the rain with my friends, quidditch is a fun game."

"Oh." Willow nodded her head, pretending like she knew what he was talking about. Harry could see by the look on her face that she was lying, Xander interrupted the comfortable atmosphere by laughing which caused the other two to laugh as well.

"I think we should all head off to bed now, it's late and were going to be tired in the morning." Willow said in a motherly tone. All three departed saying their 'goodnights' and headed to their separate rooms; Harry was bunking with Xander and Willow was using her parents room with Draco.


(Next Morning)

" Hey Buff. Are we having a Scooby Meeting today?" Xander paused. " Yah…hmmm yah...ok. See ya then, bye." Xander hung up the phone and turned around to his three sleepy companions. " Hey guys, Scooby meeting. Go get ready we leave soon."

" Silly sod, its early in the morning and whatthe hell is a 'Scooby'... Stupid blighter. Telling me what to do… to early to put up with this shite." Draco mumbled and cursed as he made his way to the bathroom.

" What a cheerful fellow!" Xander stated sarcastically watching the blonde leave the kitchen, causing Harry to laugh. "I'm guessing he is not a morning person. It's creepy just how much he's being to sound like Spike."

After much arguing, on Draco's count, the quartet finally reached the 'Magic Shop'. The group of four opened the door to the shop, "About bloody time you got here, I've got better things to do then sit and wait for the likes of you."

" Thank you for that lovely welcoming message Spike! I'm really touched, Draco have you met Spike? You two should swamp insults with one another, I have a feeling a new friendship will blossom."

" Xander and Spike will you two knock it off! Hello Harry. Hello Draco." Buffy greeted. " We've got more important things to do then watch you havea battle of 'wits'. Giles may have found something." Buffy walked over to the library corner and sat on a wooden chairby the table that was piled with books.

" Yes quite right, I may have found the answer to your problem but I'm not sure I just need to go over a few things," came the muffled voice in the back room.

" I need to go on patrol soon, the sun's almost down."

" Patrol?" Harry questioned looking puzzled.

" Yes I kill vampires and other things." Came the simple reply.

" Yeah she's," Spike mimicked in a girly tone. " Slutty the Vampire Layer!"

"VAMPIRES!" Draco squealed. " What! MONSTERS! What kind of mixed up, back watered place did I land in!"

" Um… Sunnydale, California. And Shut up Spike." Xander glared at said vampire and then shot Draco a 'are you dumb' look. "No worries though Buffy will protect you, wimpy. It's just a couple of vamps to be dusted." Draco glared at Xander grumbling under his breath and turned his back on everyone. The rest of the gang, excluding Spike and Draco, sat down and began to do some research.

" K guys I'm off." Buffy looked out the darkened window. " Who wants to come?"

" I think I'll sit this one out, the Xan-man can watch over Harry and Draco if you want."

In the end Xander and Spike ended up staying while the rest of the gang went on their nightly hunt.

" This is boring," Draco complained. " I miss all my money, my mansion, my expensive things-"

" Enough your giving me a headache." Harry said sharply. " It could be worse you know. We could have landed somewhere dangerous with monster attacking us!"

" You to buggers keep it down! Passions is on and I'm trying to watch it!"

" OH! PASSIONS IS ON!" Draco ran to the front of the store where the TV was located, and sat on the couch next to Spike watching the show.

" Aren't you a little bit young to be watching this kinda stuff?" Xander's suggestion was met with two glares and two 'shut up's. Xander and Harry exchanged looks. Xander mouthed 'crazy' and moved his index finger near his head moving it in circles.
