Dawn had just finished eaten one of the best meals she had ever tried when a teenager came up to her. She turned slowly and looked up into slightly familiar eyes. Her heart starting beating a little faster at the idea that this might be the boy Buffy had befriended all those years ago.
She watched him as he hesitated a second before he said "You're Dawn right?" She snickered and said "I was the last time I checked. Harry right?" He looked startled a second before he said "So um, you're Buffy's sister?" Dawn thought it would be fun to watch how he would try to get this information out of her, plus the entertainment..
But the boy next to her said "Nope". Harry looked downcast at his words and then looked at the boy with realization and said "You're Cayden?" At the boys nod he said "Well if you're Cayden and she is Dawn then that means your other sister is Buffy." Cayden smiled his half smile and said "Well yes but I answered you correctly." Harry looked confused and said "What no you didnt". Dawn was silently laughing next to him but couldn't keep it in when he said "Are you implying I'm a girl?" and then she was full out laughing at him. Harry's mouth dropped in shock before Cayden said"Geez, Im not her sister Dawn is."Dawn regained her composure at the looks of her classmates and Harry and said "Oh get over it, it's called a joke. Anyway yeah, what of it."
Harry looked at them and wondered what ever happened to the young girl he remembered who used to hold her twin brother's hand tightly while dragging him over to bug her sister. He shook his head at that image and said "I just wanted to make sure, um can you tell her I said hi?" Dawn was about to say something when Cayden said quietly "Why dont you tell her yourself." Harry spun around and said "Well if I ever knew where exactly you guys lived I would have, wouldn't I." Dawn frowned and said sarcastically"Yeah cause that is an excuse you can use."
Harry looked annoyed and said "What is that supposed to mean." Dawn was about to respond when Cayden put a hand on her arm and said "It means what it means?" Harry looked at him for a couple of seconds before saying "So she knows about this world?" Dawn looked at her brother then around them and said "Well duh!" Harry turned a deep red and the annoyance was coming close to being anger when he responded "Well no not duh because for all she knows your mother could have sent you to a boarding school, it doesn't mean that she would know about the magic world. Anyway why are you here and not at Salem?"
Cayden once again stopped his sister from speaking and said "I don't see how that is your business."
He looked like he was about to continue when a blonde headed boy appeared out of nowhere and said "Potter, what do you think you are doing at MY table, your friends decide to finally kick you out. Took them long enough. Well you are not welcome here. Piss off to the Hufflepuff, they have enough mud bloods for you to be friends with." Dawn turned to looked at the blonde headed boy and said "Hey was having a conversation here, and I have no idea what a mudblood is but guessing that it is a bad thing so why don't you yourself 'piss off' ".
Harry smirked at Malfoy's shocked face at someone in his own house standing up to him but didn't get the chance to talk more when Dumbledore spoke in his magnified voice and the food on the tables disappeared. (Harry nodded at Dawn and Cayden before rushing back to his seat).
"Well now that is done we can get to the announcements. I will try to make them short as I don't want anyone falling asleep on the tables". This year we passed the ruling of nailing students to the dungeons as detentions, but sadly that only lasted 10 seconds before it was thrown out. (Chuckle)
The forbidden is of course still forbidden and I gravely warn anyone going near it, we now have more creatures who will not hesitate to kill you on sight. On a more pleasant note we have a new Defence against Dart Arts teacher, an assistant teacher and a Supervisor from the ministry of magic. The Defence Against Dark Arts teacher is Professor Giles (Giles stands up and Dawn and Cayden claps hard and everyone looks at them but only Dawn blushes very red, (Dumbledore clears his throat and looks amused) As I was saying, Professor Giles will be assisted by a surprise teacher who will be coming in a couple of days, unfortunately she had to attend some rather urgent matters in her home town. (The twins looked up at this information, only a couple of days, Dumbledore must know something they don't).
Now the Ministry of Magic has decided to have some input in your schooling since the rumours of the return of Voldermort (at this sentence most of the school can tell what he really thinks of the rumours). Originally this Supervisor was going to be your Defence against Dark Arts teacher but as you can see we are privileged to have Professor Giles with us this year. The Supervisor is" (A strange looking women cleared her throat and Dumbledore looked at her startled before sitting down and letting her speak)
"Yes I believe I can introduce my self. I am Dolorous Umbridge. I will be observing your classes for this year. Any teacher who doesn't follow the ministry of magic guidelines will be replaced. Any students who has troubles or who knows of something unlawful going on don't hesitate to come to me. My door is always open."
She then sat down looking quite proud of herself. Dumbledore stood back up and let the Prefect and Head of the houses know they could leave.
Ron turned to Harry and said in a not so hushed voice "What's with you going over to Slytherin?" Harry said quietly "Someone I used to know". Ron looked startled and said "Well if they're in Slytherin I'd be careful if I were you mate."
Harry nodded but wasn't really paying attention, as he caught sight of the new professor who was looking at him with interest. Who could the new assistant be? He looked over at the twins and saw they were looking at the Professor with interest and Dawn was talking excitingly to her brother.
Giles' eyes connected with his and they both stared for a few seconds before Harry nodded at him and turned to follow the rest of his class mates.
Giles watched as the boy turned to leave but not before their eyes connected one last time. He brought his hand to hisglasses with interest. This was the boy who lived, the core of Buffy's wand. He of course knew all about him, his brother was never one to hide details considering how much he didn't like him but it was interesting. He had noticed during dinner the lad get up and go to Dawn and Cayden, they talked right until the end of the meal. Very interesting.
Author note:
God I hope you like this. It was hard to write and I rewrote it like 3 times. Cayden in Gaelic means Spirit of battle. Buffy means God's promise and Dawn means well Dawn. I thought it would be cool if their brother had a name that meant something. Thanks for the reviews guys I am glad you like it.
