John Brown got a cel phone from his jacket and he opened it gracefully. He stayed in silence. And soon his face was able to match the white shirt he had on. His eyes widened. "Alright", he said seriously. "I'll communicate this to the Head", he said. He hung up the phone and placed it gracefully in his jacket. He stood up.

"What?" Buffy asked standing up also, she frowned and looked at Brown with suspicion.

"The Council blew up half an hour ago"

CONSEQUENCES:

Chapter 19: Split facts

The Scoobies and the wizards stayed quiet looking at the watcher, some with horror and others with confusion. "The Council blew up an hour ago" Buffy repeated slowly.

"Yes, half an hour ago a bomb inside the Council exploded, destroying the central library and the east wing of the building entirely, the west wing and the entrance were only burned" Brown said seriously.

"I don't understand" Xander said looking with two big lost puppy eyes at John Brown. Everybody understood what this meant, if Giles and Hermione managed to go there then, they would be dead.

"The central and eastern area of the building was completely destroyed there isn't even a structure, the farthest place to where the bomb exploded was the west wing and the entrance so only flames reached that place..."

"He's not talking about that" Buffy interrupted him softly. The watcher looked at her confused and noticed how small the girl, who had tried to intimidate him for a long time, looked she looked like a little girl who had just being grounded and couldn't go to a dance.

"I need make some calls so some one cleans this mess" John Brown said standing up quickly with his phone now again on his hand. Buffy looked at him frowning as he left. She looked at the red head wizard who had his eyes widen.

"We still don't know if they were there," The slayer said soothingly.

"But what if they were?" The red head said after being snapped out of his trance. "They could have been where the bomb was!" He cried. "We should apparate there!" He said to the other wizards. Harry looked at his best friend looking confused between the slayer and his best friend.

"Apparate?" Dawn asked from the couch she was in.

"Yes, we should apparate, The Ministry will need to know about this" Harry said formally. "And I think we can give some help there"

"I'll stay" Draco declared quickly. "The Ministry needs a representative here" He explained. Harry nodded.

"So you two are going to the Ministry and warn them that the Council blew up?" Xander asked the wizards nodded. "Can I go?" He asked to the group in general.

"I..." Harry looked unsure to the slayer.

"If you want to," She said. "But I want to be informed" She stated.

"Of course" Harry replied quickly. Buffy smiled shortly.

"What are you waiting for, there are people that need your help," She said trying to be as cheerful as she could. "Probably Giles already started a rescuing group with Hermione" She said faithfully. Willow smiled at the slayer and she rubbed the back of the blonde.

"Clothes?" Xander asked.

"No need" Harry said. "Xander use the floo powder" Harry grabbed a bag placed on the top of the 'useless' fireplace and he turned on a fire quickly.

"The British Ministry of Magic!" Xander yelled quickly getting himself into the green fire.

"We'll keep in touch," Harry said.

"You bet," Draco said. "I don't know how I'm going to live with a bunch of muggle girls and an untrained witch," He said teasingly. Dawn hit hard the back of his head. "You know there's no need to be violent kid!" He cried rubbing head.

"Good bye" Ron said seriously and after some quick 'good byes' he disappeared leaving only Harry behind.

"The weasel left you behind for the first time on his life" Draco said winning a death glare from Harry.

"So I'll see you when I come back" The boy who lived said in a tone some would have said it was a little dramatic. The boy who lived, or probably it should be time to say the man who lived considering his 24 years of life, disappeared on the thin air.

"I'm going to watch Spike," The slayer said going on the kitchen's direction.

---

"Sir we have to send them now" Harry Potter said seriously to Kingsley.

"I already sent the message to the Aurors, Harry" Kingsley said still sitting in front of his big oak desk.

"Hermione and Mr. Giles are in there," Harry said quickly.

"What?!" The dark man said paling considerably. "How ... why were they there?"

"Sir, there were Bu- Ms. Summers representatives in the Council, they were-"He cut himself off watching a little amused how the Minister of Magic quickly wrote a letter and started moving in circles for something Harry didn't know of. "Uhm... sir?" He asked uncertain. The Minister looked up at him. "What are you looking for?" The Minister stood up straight and looked at Harry frowning.

"That blasted creature, that bloody owl is never here when I need her" The Minister kneeled and started looking under his desk. Then Harry heard a 'thump' followed by an "Ah!!!!" The Minister started crawling out of the desk as quick as he could.

"Are you alright sir?" One of The Minister's secretaries asked looking at the crawling man with concern. "Should I get a mediwitch?" Harry shook his head.

"Call Emmeline immediately!" The Minister ordered, the secretary nodded worried and ran out of the room.

"You called Kingsley?" The witch said coming from the fireplace in the room. "You should remember that with the fireplace is better for us to- "

"Emmeline not now!" Kingsley said passing his hand over his. ...hairless head. "You need-" Now it was his turn to be interrupted by the witch.

"Harry!" The witch said moving gracefully to Harry Potter. "Long time since I last saw you, you were only this little 17 year old worried ove-"

"Emmeline" The Minister warned.

"So it's serious then," She said now frowning.

"Send some units to the Council" He said seriously.

"Why?" The witch asked frowning, this didn't seem to bother Kingsley but it was killing Harry; all the time they wasted with conversation Hermione and Giles would have less opportunity.... If they were still alive.

"I'll explain to her on the way" Harry said hurriedly, Kingsley got the hint and he nodded.

"Yes, leave now" The Minister said quickly.

---Next day---

John Brown went down the stairs to where the vampire, now with a soul, named William the Bloody or Spike was living in. The vampire was tied and was having nightmares. John Brown looked with interest at the vampire and started moving closer to the vampire. He searched for his stake on his jacket and held it strongly; he wished on his mind that he wouldn't have to use it.

"What are you doing here?" The slayer asked going downstairs without taking her eyes of John Brown. She started walking closer to where he stood.

"I wanted to see this vampire.... I've never seen a vampire with a soul" The man said.

"Looked, now leave," She said sternly. The man took this order and started walking quickly. "You never said who was your source," She said turning her back to Spike.

"A watcher" He said on the middle of the stairs.

"How did he survive such blow?" She asked. On the watcher's lips was drawn a small smile.

"Buffy!" She heard Willow calling for her.

"Buffy, there's something we need you to see" Dawn said on the door, she noticed John Brown on the middle of the stair and she gave him a weird look.

"I'll be there in a sec," The slayer said softly. Dawn went back and John Brown continued going upstairs. "This conversation isn't over" She said seriously.

"Of course it isn't" The watcher said smiling. "And it will never be" He finished and left. The slayer looked worriedly at Spike.

"He didn't do anything to me" The vampire said looking at the slayer now wide-awake.

"I...I'm needed upstairs" The vampire smiled at the slayer and she just turned and left quickly.

---

"Wha-.. What are you doing here?" The slayer asked glaring at the two guys in front of her. Anya was holding Jonathan's neck from the back and Andrew was being held by his arms by Draco and Willow. Dawn was being the official glarer, if that was a word of course.

Jonathan and Andrew looked at the slayer with a mixture of awe and embarrassment. "We were on the neighborhood-"

"I found them at the butcher's shop" Willow interrupted.

"Doing what?" Buffy asked looking at the two nerds. They held carefully a paper bag.

"Blood" Willow said shortly.

"And what were you two doing with blood? I can see that you don't need it," The slayer pointed out looking at the sunrays falling directly on them.

"We were..."Andrew started.

"...Doing some... investigations," Jonathan continued.

"Yes! Investigations of ..."Andrew confirmed with his eyes wide open.

"...quantity of red globules!" Jonathan continued smartly.

"I will ask one more time... what are you two doing here?" She asked slowly.

"If I was you I wouldn't made her ask again, because lately she's been kind of moody with the whole Spik-"

"Anya" Willow cut her off. The demon rolled her eyes and tightened her hold of Jonathan's neck.

"Could you hold me a little less harder?" Jonathan asked with a muffed voice.

"I think I have an idea," Buffy said smirking diabolically.

---

"Oh no!" Andrew whined. "Please not the coat!" Anya stepped onto it. "It's new! It's Gucci" Anya looked at the coat on the floor and she grabbed it. She looked for the label and then she threw it again to the floor. Dawn looked at her strangely.

"Last season, I'm just doing him a favor," Anya said to the 'key' while she stepped and rubbed the coat to the floor with her dirty pointed boots. Draco tightened the robes on Andrews's hands and he proved those who covered Andrew's chest.

"Now you little guy," Draco said smirking at Jonathan.

"I'm allergic to... ropes," Jonathan said looking horrified at the ropes.

"Which material?" Draco asked bringing the rope closer to Jonathan who was now sitting on a chair like Andrew, his arms being held by Dawn. Jonathan looked with horror at Draco. "That's what I thought so" Draco tied him quickly and proved that the ropes were tight.

"Are they ok?" Buffy asked while she watched from a corner. Draco nodded.

"Please slayer, please don't kill me" Andrew begged forgetting about his partner.

"Hey!" Jonathan cried.

"Don't kill us," Andrew repeated. "We are good, we are not bad anymore"

"They were bad?" Draco asked amused.

"So you are good," Buffy said after she nodded. She moved her chair in front of both of them.

"Yes we are!" Jonathan cried.

"And the blood was for...?" Willow asked.

"Ok we are not good, we are bad, and we are evil! So stand back you little witch, not you or the slayer will be able to harm me mwahahahahahahahah-" Andrew started coughing. Buffy shrugged.

"I don't have time for this," She said standing up and leaving the room.

"I could make a Verise-"

"Shut up you filthy man," Andrew said. Draco looked at him raising slowly his eyebrow.

"Beg your pardon?" He said looking at Andrew with distaste.

"You Billy Idol wannabe!" Andrew continued. Dawn started giggling but stopped quickly after the glare Draco sent her.

Draco stood up angrily and pointed at Andrew's face with his wand. "Repeat that"

"Draco" Willow said pushing him from the boys. "I wouldn't suggest doing that again, he's a wizard you know" Willow informed the boys after Draco was away from them.

"And what's that? His magic wand?" Andrew mocked.

"Actually it is" Dawn observed. The explanation was cut off by Jonathan's stomach making loud noises everybody looked at Jonathan disgusted.

"I have a weak stomach," He said blushing.

"I'm hungry" Anya said yawning.

"Me too" Draco agreed while he kept glaring at Andrew.

"Lets go eat" Willow suggested while she went out of the room.

"Are you bringing us some?" Jonathan asked when Dawn, the last one, went out.

---

"Have they talked?" Buffy asked with two bags of blood on her hand. All of them shook their heads.

"Hey where's the watcher?"Draco asked.

"He went out before Buffy came," Willow explained. Draco looked at his watch without saying anything.

"I'm going to take this to Spike" Buffy said looking with a little disgust at the bags.

"Be careful" Dawn muttered and the slayer smiled at her little sister, or not so little sister. The slayer went down the stairs.

"I say we should hit them," Anya said scratching her shin.

"I agree with the demon," Draco said nodding.

"Watch it wizard, I've killed many of your kind" Anya threatened.

"Really like whom?"Draco asked looking at her dismissively.

"Let's just say that Salazar had a very very mad wife" She smirked looking at the now paler face of the wizard.

"So what we'll just hit them?" Dawn asked watching her newly polished nails.

"I can do your work" Anya said cracking her fingers.

"I could do some spells, some Storm like tricks" Willow said excited.

"Shouldn't you be watching your magic?" John Brown asked as he entered the room. The witch blushed.

"It's only a trick" Dawn said quickly. "I can do it" Dawn offered she looked at Willow who just nodded.

"Sure" The witch said not so enthusiastic.

"And I will add more pressure to the situation, I could transfigurate some-"Draco started excited but was soon interrupted by the watcher.

"May I know of what you are talking about?" He asked as ...gently as he could.

"We are finding a way of making the two nerds talk" Dawn said smartly.

"I believe you should discuss your ..Ideas with the slayer first" He said formally.

"We already discussed it tough guy, we voted, we decided, we are doing it" Anya said. The watcher looked at the vengeance demon with a hint of hatred which she seemed inmune to. The watcher 'retired' to the kitchen with an indignant 'humph' and went upstairs.

"Could we hurry, I want those geeks out of my room as soon as possible" Dawn whined.

"Maybe we should all go in at once, you know maybe we have luck and one of them is demophobic" Draco suggested. Dawn giggled and they went upstairs quickly.

---

"How are you feeling?" Buffy asked putting the now empty blood bags in the trash.

"In a way better" Spike said looking at the ceiling. "But... I don't remember anything"

"Anything?" Buffy asked concerned sitting on a chair near him.

"The killing.. I don't remember just some flashes," Spike said now looking at Buffy.

PANG!

"YOU BLOODY WORM!" They heard the only demon in the house yell imitating the british accent.

"How many guests are?" Spike asked finding the yell amusing.

"They used to be three, but two of them left with Xander, now there's only one left" Buffy said smirking.

"The scar face?" Spike asked. Buffy gave him a look. "I remember them, him specially... from the house," He explained, Buffy just nodded.

"Blondie is the one that's upstairs with Anya, so she's problably just teasing him" Buffy said smiling a little bit.

"You should go and see why is she yelling" Spike suggested and Buffy stood up quickly.

"I'll be back in a sec," She said going upstairs quickly.

---

"What are you going to do to us?" Andrew asked looking with fear in his eyes at the axe on Dawn's hand. "Sweet girl, please don't kill me!" He said sweating like a pig.

"Why shouldn't I, Buffy might consider this as my daily training" She said looking at her axe.

"Kill him but don't kill me, you would ruin your carpet" Jonathan said sweating also. Dawn looked at her 'Aragorn' carpet and she scratched her chin.

"To kill or not to kill, that's the real question" She said poetically. "I could kill you but dear Aragorn would be bathed in blood"

"He was bathed in blood a couple of times in the movie, so I doubt he would care" Willow replied smartly. Draco gave her a look. "I thought you saw the Behind the Scenes of The Fellowship of the Ring"

"But also I could let them live" Dawn said thoughtfully.

"Please!" Jonathan and Andrew begged.

"What would you win with that?" Anya asked looking at them. "They wouldn't work out as slaves" Anya said looking at the untanned nerds.

"Unless you told us why you are here?" Dawn suggested looking at them smirking.

"We are here for vacations," Andrew said lying miserably. Then the room grew silent.

"I'm going to go to the living room" Dawn said giving the axe to Anya. She opened the curtains revealing the rays of sun failing gracefully on the room. She opened and closed the door quickly, both nerds sighed with relief.

"Why are you sighing for?" Draco asked.

"Yeah, now that the kid is gone, I can actually hit you" Anya said cracking her fingers. "You see, Buffy has this policy of no violence in front of Dawnie" Anya explained. "So if you don't talk before I cross this room, you are getting the beating of your lives"

"We don't know anything!" Jonathan cried.

"You stupid liar!" The vengeance demon yelled throwing herself at him. The chair of Jonathan with his chair fell into the ground with a loud PANG! "You bloody worm!" Anya yelled in her best Draco imitation.

Draco looked at Andrew who was looking with horror at Draco's wand. "Want me to show you a little trick?"

"Is everything alright?" The slayer asked from the door watching with amusement the scene in the room. Anya on the top of Jonathan with Willow trying to pull her off him and Draco about to make a spell with Andrew's sweating/pale/terrified eyes looking at his wand with horror.

"Sure it is" Willow said smiling confidently.

"Ok, I'm going back to the basement with Spike" The slayer said closing the door.

"Spike is here?" Andrew asked. Draco stopped from making his "As in the Spike that slept with Buffy and Anya?" Andrew said with some weird sick perverted hero worship.

"Alright I'll tell you!" Jonathan yelled. Draco remained silent and Willow was able to finally pull Anya off Jonathan. Both of them stood the chair again.

"So Spike's here" Andrew said again.

"Yes why?"

"Why is Spike here?" Andrew asked slowly. Jonathan was now staring at the door with shock. The three 'guards' dismissed him and looked at Andrew.

"Because" Willow said quickly looking at the geek with suspicion. "Now changing the subject," She said merrily. "You here have something to tell us"

Thanks to:

Hermione Malfoy: ok didn't quite catch that but anyways.... lol.

Vld: He's just acting like an older brother would! I love Xander! He's such a cool older-brother-tipe-of-guy. And Anya wasn't slayed.... so technically in my story he wasn't an hipocrite! Yay!

Zayra: Thank you! It was one of my favorite parts also, I chuckled for like ten minutes when I wrote it. Lol.

Koos: Ok you got me confused here, on the whole OMWF, I never saw when Xander said it... I know that in the song he sings with Anya 'I'll never tell' he says 'am I marrying a demon?' But I nevere saw the part you talk about, but again maybe it is in another part which I didn't look as carefull as in the I'll never tell. And I do think that Xander is a little bit cautious with Spike because he found Buffy after Spike's raping try with her, so I understood the whole situation specially if the relationship they have is more like a sister/brother thing.

Anyways............

I'm making a poll.... 'Are Giles and Hermione dead?'

That's all I have to ask. Just one advice, don't base your answer on saying they are part of the main 'cast' so they can't die, because hey! looked what happened to Tara. (I got mad when it happen don't get me wrong)

Don't forget to review
