Author's Note: This story is dedicated to Kev, because I couldn't start posting this story without his help.
Another Author's note: I need at least five reviews before I post the next chapter. I need suggestions, pointers (not the dog please), and encouragement. Treat me like a poor person who needs handout food to survive. Treats the reviews as the handout food. big smile
Helpful tips: zeros (0) mean change of character, diamonds ( ) mean change of scene or time, words in italics are thoughts and surrounded by quotation marks means thought speech, words in bold mean excerpts from something written like a book or note
Chapter One
Blood sucking, crucio usage
"Harry Potter." Angel cracked an eye open to see a man in black robes standing over the trio of teens shackled in the opposite corner. Beside him, Spike grumbled in annoyance at the interruption of his rest. Angel poked him and shushed him.
"What are we watching?" Spike whispered, fully awake. Angel didn't respond. "He must be the head badass." Spike concluded as Harry writhed on the ground, enveloped in red light.
Angel watched, more than a little detatched, as Harry was finally released from the spell. The man left with a harsh laugh, and Spike cleared his throat. "You okay?"
"Peachy." Harry replied through gritted teeth. He pushed himself up in his chains so that he was a bit more comfortable.
"Good. You're the only cool person I've met in this country so far." Spike declared. Angel rolled his eyes. "And I'm sure Angel agrees with me." Angel rested his head against the wall, content to let Spike talk for both of them.
"So where'd you come from?" The girl, Hermione, asked.
"California. The Hellmouth to be precise." Spike said cheerfully.
"Hellmouth? I think I read about that once." Hermione muttered. The redhead, Ron, snorted. "Oh shut up."
"Only you." He responded. "You sure you're okay Harry?"
"I'll be fine." Spike turned to Angel.
"So when do we bust out?" Spike asked in a low whisper. "We can go home wit them. Something tells me we'll be relatively safe with them." Angel nodded slowly. Spike grinned and morphed into his vampire guise.
"What are you doing?" Harry spoke up as Spike picked up a chain.
"I'm working on freeing us." Spike replied. "Normally I don't do nice, but Angel thinks you guys are safe for us to follow home." Harry tilted his head towards Angel, who was still sitting silently.
"Okay."

Harry watched the vampire called Spike as he began to manipulate the chains holding himself and the other vampire to the wall. He didn't know if she should trust this guy, but at the moment he figured anything was better than being held by Voldemort.
"Should we trust them?" Hermione asked, not bothering to be quiet. All three students knew the vampires could hear them either way.
"For now, yeah. But when we get…." Harry trailed off as the doors opened. A trio of ugly men, also called vampires, entered the room with sneers.
"Our master told us to drain the black haired one." The tallest of the three said. He turned his yellow eyes on Harry, who scooted back as far as he could.
"You leave him be." Spike called. "We'll be free in a moment, then we can fight." He said in a promising tone. The vampires in the doorway scowled and descended upon Harry.
"Okay, stay back! Back!" Harry tried. The head vampire grinned and soon Harry found himself restrained by the other two. The vampire lowered his lips to Harry's neck. One lick, two licks, then Harry felt fangs pierce his flesh. He screamed in pain as his blood was sucked out through the two holes.
"Harry!" Harry screamed louder as the other two joined their leader, adding more holes to his body. Then he heard a loud clinking sound and one of the vampires was gone. He slumped over as the other two were thrown back.
"Keep them back." An unfamiliar voice said. Harry pried open his heavy lids to see the silent vampire Angel above him. "I can save him, but I have to turn him."
"No!" A female voice shouted. Hermione. Harry blinked as his head was cradled by Angel, who was surprisingly gentl.
"Stay back girl. Angel is strong, he'll ad to your hero's strength and everything. He's the perfect sire."
"But the public…." Spike growled something and Harry met Angel's eyes. Soft pools of warmth, that promised love and comfort once this was all over. Harry nodded and Angel brought his wrist to his mouth. He tore open a wound and quickly pressed his wrist to Harry's mouth.

"It'll be okay." Spike tried to reassure the girl once again. "Angel is a good vampire to have as a Sire. He'll teach your boy how to fight, how to win against your evil demon."
"But the public…." She cried. The redhead tried to comfort her but she would have none of it.
"Will learn to deal." Spike said. "Listen, this will give him a good chance at living through this Voldemort crisis." Spike reasoned. "I know I don't know a lot about this, but it looked to me like he would benefit from becoming a vampire."
"He's probably right Hermione, as much as I would hate to admit it." The boy, Ron, said. Spike watched as Angel caught Harry's gaze. Spike knew what was in that look, the promise of love and comfort. The same one Angel gave to Spike just years ago. And boy did he make good on his promises.
"He's in good hands." Spike assured them. Angel tore a wound in his wrist and pressed it to Harry's lips. Spike watched as Harry drank deeply from his sire, while Hermione and Ron sniffled.
"He'll be weak for some time." Angel spoke up, pulling his wrist away. Harry's head fell back limply. "He's asleep for now. He'll change over the course of the week, until he's exactly like me."
"We need to move." I said. "Are you up to it?" Angel gathered Harry in his arms in response, and stood up.
"I'm not human, I don't need that blood as much." Spike smirked and turned to Hermione and Ron.
"You stay in between me and Angel. He'll take up the back." Angel nodded and Spike led the odd group out of the dungeons. He navigated his way through the maze of corridors until they made it to the exit.
"That was way too easy." Angel commented as they stepped out into the courtyard.
"He never has many guards." Hermione said shakily. "Harry told us, he's way too cocky. Doesn't think that he could lose prisoners." Angel shrugged.
"It's your turn to lead the way." Spike said, stepping back. "But hurry. It's almost sunrise." Hermione nodded and searched her pockets.
"The port key is gone." She said dismally. "We'll have to run for it." Spike nodded. Then he scooped her up and flung her over one shoulder. Ron went over the other one.
'Tell me wht direction."
"Southhhhhhh!" Hermione screamed as Spike took off at a dead run. Angel followed suit seconds later and they ran along through the blurry trees. Ron whooped with glee while Hermione screamed.
"Now?" Spike asked when they slowed to a jog.
"Go to where the sun rises. I know Hogwarts faces that, and it's before those mountains. Close." She said breathlessly. Spike nodded and they took off again.

I was nice and posted this without waiting for five reviews. That's mainly because I want the poll to start. Please please please review and let me know what you want? I will not post again until I have at least five or more new reviews.
Okay, time to ask your opinions. There are no current relationships. I'm going to give a list of possible relationships between characters and the ones with the most votes will be introduced.
Angel/Harry (Sire/Childe)
Angel/Harry (lovers in addition to Sire/Childe)
Angel/Spike (Sire/Childe)
Angel/Spike (lovers in addition to Sire/Childe)
Spike/Harry (sibling-like)
Spike/Harry (lovers in addition to sibling-like)
Angel/Spike/Harry (family)
Angel/Spike/Harry (lovers in addition to family)
Angel/Other (lovers)
Spike/Other (lovers)
Harry/Other (lovers)
If you choose Other, then please specify who the Other is. If I get enough votes for that suggestion I'll use it. Now, no matter who goes with who the three vampires will be close. Meaning if you choose that Angel is with Spike, Harry is still close to them. Or if Harry is with Spike, he's still close to Angel. Even if Spike is with someone else from HP or BtVS the three will be close. Get it? Got it? Good.
At the end of every other chapter I'll put the results of the vote so far so everyone knows what's going on.
IMPORTANT: Check the beginning of each chapter before you vote, because that's where I'll let you know that the poll is over. I won't take votes after it's over, but I will still consider suggestions for future chapters or stories. Heh…you never know what I'll do in this story or any of my others.
