Dear Harry,

I don't even know why I am writing this to you, I guess maybe because writing to you is like writing in a diary. It clears my mind, and in the back of my mind I think maybe you are reading this. If you are then Happy 10th birthday. Wish you were here to give you your present. I got you a pendant with a phoenix on it because you told me once that you loved phoenixes because you like the idea or being able to start over again in a flash. I am going to wear until I see you again.

When I see you, you have a lot of explaining to do mister. You know I actually told one of my friends in my new class my best friend is 10 and they were all like "You're friends with a 10 year old, what's up with that." So you see me writing to you proves that I'm not too old to still be friends with you, so in theory you shouldn't ethier. Doesn't matter I guess. When you read this,I hope you will understand. You always were older than you are. God I hope you understand. I'm going to tell you something so don't freak.

So I decided I need to tell you what has been happening to me. You remember in my last letter I told you about the institute, well I didn't tell you why I went in there.

See I just started junior high when this creepy dude (well he was creepy at the time) came up to me and told me I had a destiny and I was the slayer. Basically a slayer is someone who fights demons, mainly vampires. See I am a vampire slayer, the one and only in the entire world destined to fight the evils of the world. But I'm only 13. It is so unfair. So I staked my first vampire, alright the first time I missed but hey I'm just a kid right? Freaked yet? Please don't be! You're the only one that ever seemed to get me.

Merrick that is my watcher, sort of like a trainer is all like well done and you can't tell anyone but I need to tell you. I told my parents and they freaked and sent me to the institute but I know you will believe me. Won't you?

Happy Birthday and miss you

Buffy.

Dear Harry,

I'm not planning on sending this out since all the letter I sent was returned to me yesterday. I know you read them since they were opened. I first thought maybe you weren't getting my letters course hey no reply. But I guess you didn't want to know me after my last letter huh? I got used to writing these so maybe one day I will give them to you in person and make you believe in me.

Things happened recently that didn't come as a shock. Mom and dad separated and mom is taking me and Dawn to this little town called Sunnydale. I probably would have protested if it hadn't been for what happened to Merrick. Even as I write this, tears are falling on the page, so you probably realize how painful this is for me since I don't cry. When you read this you are probably going to reread the letter and go Why the hell didn't you say this to start with. Guess I needed to start with something normal. You know.

Ok Ok I know you are going why are you crying. So I was fighting this big vamp, dusted him too when this powerful dude came out of nowhere. He just turned up, would have killed me too if Merrick hadn't been there. He did the stupidest thing, he told me to run and stood in front of this master vampire while me being the idiot ran a few steps before turning around. I know the first rule of being a Slayer is don't die but you should have seen it Harry. I just...

When I turned all I saw was the blood and his body fall to the ground, so I ran. I got as far as the high school where this dance was going on. I didn't even know a dance was going on but those vamps and the master vamp followed me. I didn't mean to, I would never intentionally put all those people in danger. I had no choice but to fight right. I guess one of the vampires thought it was fun to throw burning bottles of liquor.

Stupid idiots, it is like duh you're a vampire, you know combustible. It didn't take long for the gymnasium to catch light and killing the rest of the vamps, I managed to stumble out alive but not before being told I was expelled for burning the gym down.

I went back to Merrick, I just couldn't leave him alone right? I tried to wake him up I don't know why, I just didn't believe he could actually be dead. He wouldn't leave me like that right? He couldn't just leave me alone in the world after everything we have been through. I got up eventually after realizing he was gone and I called the police and told them that I found a body in the park. Told them where it was and then I hid and watched as they took his body away.

His body such a weird word. I mean it is still him right just because he isn't alive anymore, why does it make him a body? When I got home at like 2am I guess that was the final straw for my parents because my dad just let fly and now we are moving to Sunnydale. I just don't know if I can take this anymore...

Buffy.
