So, you like the fanfic. I got like eighteen reviews in my inbox and none of them were

evil! Yay me! And to all of you people who just need to know my pairings, there is no

b/a in the future (or at least not until I get into the story more). My opinion of it is that

Angel brings too much drama into it, and all Buffy ends up doing is wallowing in

self-pity and I hate it. She gets too whiny. So the possibilities that I'm planning on at the

moment are Buffy/Harry or Buffy/Draco and also Hermione/Ron. Also, someone had a

question about the whole detective thing and why Joyce gave Buffy up so easily. First, I

don't know if what I wrote about the detective was legal or not, I just wrote it. Second,

Joyce let Buffy go because she was frightened. She has a daughter who's a Slayer and a

wizard. Wouldn't you be freaked? She just wants space between her and her daughter

because she's confused and doesn't understand. I thought I'd covered that last chapter,

but whatever. Read on! (Also, very high possibility of Spike entering later, but not Dru)

Chapter 2: Meeting

Buffy stood on the doorway of 192 Prescot Street and took in a sigh. *This is it

Buff, try not to screw up, try not to screw up* Her fingers were frail looking as they

reached the metallic that lined the door bell. Shaking from nervousness, she closed her

eyes and pushed her hand foreword. Immediately a noise raced through the house,

alerting the occupants of her presence. Looking down at herself, Buffy hoped she'd worn

the right thing to make an impression. A pink and almost off the shoulders sweater

covered her upper portion, while plain faded jeans covered her lower. Her hair was done

as usual, down and shimmering in the sunlight.

The door opened and a woman appeared in front of her. Her hair was auburn, a

little bit darker than Willow's, and she was wearing a plain white tee and jeans. Her eye

color was the same as Buffy's, changing in different lights, and looking very brown at the

moment. The very moment she'd opened the door Buffy had known that this was her

mother. Her posture, her gaze, even her size had given it away.

"Are... are you Anne?" Mary Granger stuttered.

"Well, I go by Buffy now, but ya, it's me." Buffy said in a quiet voice before she

was lifted in a giant bear hug.

"Oh my gosh, An.. I mean Buffy. Last time I saw you, you were only just born. I

can't believe how beautiful you are. From my side of the family of coarse." then Mary

yelled, "Dave! Dave, get your butt over here! Oh, come in Buffy, make yourself at home

here on the sofa." Buffy sat down on a floral patterned couch, and a man entered from a

hallway. He walked over to her and his eyes went wide. *Daddy dearest* Buffy thought.

"I can't, It's just, wow. Mary told me you were coming, but I never believed her.

We hired that detective years ago, and I never thought he'd actually find you. Your

mother kept telling me to get ready because you were going to come and see us for a day

and then go to school with Hermione, but I guess I thought it was too good to be true.

"Hermione?"

"Your twin, hunny. Not identical of coarse, fetal. That's the only reason we had

to give you up, we could only afford one baby, and the nurse said you were the better

choice. I have no idea why she said that, but she did. Anyways, you have to meet her,

she'll be in the same year of school as her, and you guys are going to go school shopping

together with Harry and Ron." Marry said, looking out of breath from all that talking.

"Are Harry and Ron my brothers?" she asked. This was weird. She had a sister.

Wait, not just a sister, a twin. Now there was even the possibility of brothers.

"No, Anne..."

"Buffy." Mary corrected her husband, "She's Buffy now."

"Ok. Buffy, Harry and Ron are Hermione's friends from school. Ron's father,

Mr. Weasly, and Hermione are coming later on to get you to go over to Ron's house until

it's time to go to Hogwarts." Dave explained.

"But that means that I only get a day to, you know, talk to you guys."

"I know, we don't like the situation as much as you do. I wish we could talk

more, but we'll send letters to you in school, and you'll be spending Christmas with us.

We're just happy that you said yes to coming here and talking to us." she said, taking

Buffy's hand in her own.

"It was my pleasure."

"Well, enough of this, if we're going to find out anything about each other we'd

better start talking!" Dave exclaimed, and started talking about himself. They each took

turns explaining themselves. Buffy told them everything, leaving out the parts about

creepy things that go bump in the night, but other than that they knew everything. It was

about three hours later that there was a mysterious 'pop' in the room and a young girl and

an older man appeared.

"Is it time already?" Mary asked solemnly.

A/N: Please R&R! Help me think of what to put in for Hermione and Buffy's first

meeting. Do you think I should show them talking, or just skip it and just say they met

and already are at Ron's house for the second chapter? Give me some ideas. Also, I'd

like some help on whether Buffy should be in Slytherin or Gryffindor. I already think I

know what I want to do, but *hint, hint* your opinions might sway me to the other side.
