To chicklepea: I wanted them all the same age so they could date lol

Zayra: actually I was thinking Buffy/ Draco, Willow/ Harry but I really can't get over my love for Harry/Draco LMAO or Willow/Xander but those are the pairings I am going to try and put in Buffy/Draco and Willow/ Harry…. Not decided whom Xander gets….

Oz bat: it comes out July 16th!!!!

Manticore-gurl071134: I hope this chapter is just as interesting.

Maya Beebop: I am guessing you read the mistake chapter LMAO it was just a chapter chock full of mistakes. I tried to upload the right chapter but it's not working…Did you read the one where it said "Buffy was woken by her sister's insistent shaking" and it was her mother? And then it said, "he threw curses as good as willow" when she would have no way of knowing Willow can throw curses? LMAO I fixed them all….

A/N 2 : sorry if any of you read the mistake chapter, I so didn't mean to upload that one lol but hopefully this one will be better, enjoy.

Disclaimer: I own nothing…. It's all Joss Whedon and JK Rowling, I'm just borrowing for my own pleasure…Wow that really did come out right….


"So England is getting hellmouthy huh?" Buffy asked settling into the couch. "Dawn!" She called to her sister "can you come here"

"I didn't do it" came the reply from the kitchen.

"Someone's got a guilty conscious" Xander said.

Dawn came walking into the room "No it's just when Buffy calls me like that I normally did something, and this time I did nothing".

"Nope, I just thought you should be here for this conversation," Buffy said patting the seat beside her.

Dawn sat excitedly on the couch "Cool, I'm included in the Scoobieness".

Buffy smiled slightly at Dawns enthusiasm "Ok so here's what we got so far, there's a hellmouth in England and it's getting rumbly, The Nerds have nothing to do with it"

"That's it?" Dawn asked.

"So far yes" Buffy said "Giles?"

"Oh right" Giles said taking off his glasses and cleaning them. "the Watchers council have been keeping an eye on this hellmouth ever since it became activated a little over 15 years ago".

"Activated?" Willow questioned "Meaning it was dormant?"

"Precisely" Giles said

"But who would have the power to activate a hellmouth?" Buffy asked "ok yeah Mayor, but still he built the town and had 100 years to do rituals and stuff for the demons. And we don't even know that the Mayor even activated the hellmouth…although he probably did, I never thought about that. Is there a way to deactivate a hellmouth?"

"Destroy it?" Dawn offered.

"Without killing everyone?" Buffy asked.

"Not that I'm aware of." Giles said.

"Why would anyone activate a hellmouth anyway? I mean yeah there is the Old One's that want to come out but why activate it and not open it? And did the Mayor actually plan to open the hellmouth when he ascended?" Buffy began to ramble on again, when Xander put a hand up to stop her.

"Back to the Hellmouth in England" he said.

Dawn to a notebook off the side table and noted all the things that had been mentioned and it looked kinda like this:

Hellmouth in England getting rumbly

Activated more than 15 years ago

Nerds not involved!!!

"So who activated it?" Buffy asked.

"To my knowledge it was a powerful Wizard hell bent on power" Giles said.

Wizard hell bent on power made the activation. Dawn noted.

"Was he going to let the demons out?" Anya asked "cause that would be bad"

"Are the Old ones in that Hellmouth too?" Tara asked uncertainly. "I-I means…A-are all the hellmouths c-connected?"

Giles blinked in surprise "I don't really know, I doubt anyone has opened a hellmouth voluntarily and walked from one of them to the other to see" He took his glasses off and cleaned them again in concentration.

Hellmouths possibly all connected

How many old ones are there actually? And how many are waiting at each mouth of hell to get out?

Buffy looked over at Dawn shoulder "That's a good question" she said, raising some confused glances around the room "How man Old ones are there exactly? I mean they can't all be waiting at the mouth of Sunnyhell."

Giles was looking flustered at how many answers he didn't have. "Um…well it was said that when men started to roam the earth that the old ones were pushed underground and sealed there, as you know the Spanish called it Boca Del inferno, the hellmouth. Because when someone managed to get it open, many creatures that most would consider thing that came from hell came spilling forth. Then the one warrior in all world would push them back under and close the hellmouth, but it would never be sealed again. Leaving the ground vulnerable".

Spanish named the hellmouth 'Boca Del Inferno 'the hellmouth'

The Old ones were pushed underground when men first walked the earth since then only (?) hellmouths have been activated.

Once a hellmouth is activated it is never sealed again.

"Uh Giles how many Hellmouths have been activated?" Dawn asked.

"Oh, not many actually, four, but two were destroyed. One when Olvakan, the demon the mayor ascended to., came out of the hellmouth right under a volcano, the volcano erupted and destroyed the town and Olvakan. And the other happened during the ascension Anya told us about, the one with Lo-Hash, About eight hundred years ago in the Kastka Valleys above the Urals"

Four hellmouths have been activated

Two destroyed, one was because of a demon named Olvakan getting out of a hellmouth under a volcano…that would have been cool to see…a giant snake demon coming out of the volcano like in India when the snake charmers get the snakes out of the baskets. And the other hellmouth was destroyed when another ascension took place, the demon Lo-Hash and the entire city was destroyed 8 hundred years ago in the Kastka Valleys about the Urals.

"Look at Dawnie the note taker" Xander joked as Dawns pencil moved furiously across the page.

"I just want to write down as much information as I can, it might be useful later" Dawn muttered.

"Wow, look at mini watcher" Buffy said, "you need to stop hanging out with Giles".

"Thought!" Dawn said tapping her pencil excitedly "All the active volcanoes, are they on active hellmouths?" cause you know…the lave and the fires of hell…it'd make sense"

"No" Giles said "Good assumption, but no, the lava is entirely Scientific."

Buffy decided to get the group back on track "so what are we going to do about it?" she asked "This Rumbly hellmouth, does it mean the evil Wizard is going to finish what he started and release unholy hell on earth?"

"Or, you know, he may try to ascend…again" Willow said "But we've already dealt with that, it'd almost be to easy".

"And nothing around here is ever that easy" Buffy said.

"But it's not here" Dawn said "it's there, maybe they never dealt with ascension before. Maybe we get a rerun"

"That would be good" Buffy said "But then again who knows it might be hard to stop, what with it probably not being Novocain again"

"Wasn't it Ovalkhan?" Xander asked.

"It was Olvakan" Giles said "And no, I think Buffy might be right, if we are dealing with an ascension it may not be the same one".

"But it might be Lo-Hash" Anya said "But…I don't know how to stop it"

Possibly dealing with ascension, but neither Olvakan nor Lo-Hash probable.

"So either way we are still going into research mode," Willow said.

"Um…" Tara started "we don't e-even know if it is an a-ascension y-yet"

"Tara's right" Willow said "we should take this one step at a time and not get ahead of ourselves" she grabbed Tara's hand and squeezed it.

Suddenly an owl swooped in the room and an envelope on Dawns head, she let out a yelp and blushed. She picked it up and looked at it.
