Reviewer Responses

Heaven's Demise- Thanks for the review, and I have to agree with you about Draco, he is the typical bad boy...in the Spike and Angel way of course. LOL. And yes this will be a Harry/Ginny fic. I think those two are made for one another...especially since both of them are the only people who have ever been possessed by the a$$!& and survive. They understand one another in a way no other girl could understand Harry and no guy could understand Ginny.

Slaygal166- Thanks for the review. I am trying not to make it as dark as the books and movie have been getting, but I gotta have a little drama and action. But I'll do my best to keep it a humor filled and light.

SpikesDreamer- Thanks for the wonderful review, I'm glad it seems as if I am doing this at a good pace. I didn't want it to go to fast, or too slow. And don't worry, we'll be heading to Hogwarts soon enough. :grins:

The Wandmaker- Thanks for the review. Glad you're enjoying my writing.

Triquetra Warrior- :raises eyebrow: Charmed fan I see…well thanks for the advice. Ill do my best to make sure it's an easier read. Keep reading…please!

MaxCobra- Well I can't make everyone happy. But thanks for being honest. Glad you're enjoying this so far.

NixiNox- I know those pairings from HP just seem…right to me ya know? Keep reading.

Just Me- Keep reading to find out. I'm glad you're enjoying reading this.

Lady Saffron of the Daggers- Not to worry Saff, I won't yell at you. But I will say that that pairing gives me the "wiggins" (had to use the Buffyism, don't know why maybe it's because of the fact that Snape actually 'looks' as if he could be her father). I may add more Illyria, but that's up for grabs at the moment. And as for the pairing, as I said before…you'll find out when I'm good and ready for ya to.

General Mac- Yes sir General Sir :gives salute:giggles: Sorry had to do that. Keep reading.

Cyndur- Glad you're liking it. And I have to agree about the ships. To it just seems right that Harry and Ginny are together. I mean both have lived through Voldemort trying to kill them, and possessing them. Not only that but physically both of them are very similar to Harry's parents except for a few differences; like eyes color.

Toniboo- Well your wish has been granted…enjoy!

Chailyn Cole Runewood- No I didn't know that, Happy Belated Birthday! Thanks for reviewing.

Arica, Princess of Rivendell- Damn girl, a little impatient are we? LOL.


Chapter 6: The Trio meets The Scoobies

The Burrow, Ottery St. Catchpole, England; July 16, 2004

"Where is he?" Ron complained as he, Ginny, and Hermione sat on the couch chatting while

waiting for Professor Dumbledore.

Dumbledore said that he would take them to where Harry was staying and they were getting a little impatient. Well Ron was; Ginny and Hermione were just waiting patiently.

However, Ginny was seething inside. Ever since she found out that Ron had threatened HER boyfriend Dean, she had been planning her revenge, and it would only work with the help of Harry and Hermione.

"Shut it Ron. Professor Dumbledore will be here when he gets here," Ginny snapped.

Ron looked at Ginny as if she'd been their mother. Hermione just chuckled and said, "I told you that you shouldn't have threatened Dean, Ron."

Ron rolled his eyes. "You wouldn't understand Hermione. It's a guy thing," he replied.

Hermione shook her head. "Yeah, something that is no doubt stupid and idiotic," she muttered as she went back to her book.

The trio fell into a companionable silence and waited for Dumbledore to show up.

Their patience, or impatience as it were, paid off as they all heard the familiar CRACK of someone apparating into the house.

"Hello Mr. Weasley, Miss Weasley, Miss Granger," Dumbledore greeted the trio with that thrice damned twinkle in his eyes.

"Hello Professor," they greeted.

Dumbledore was about to say something when Remus Lupin and Molly Weasley walked in.

Dumbledore smiled. "Ah, hello there Molly, Remus. I take it you're going with us?" he questioned.

Molly and Remus nodded. "Of course," Molly replied. "I want to see how safe the children are myself."

Remus sighed. He did not agree with Molly's view that the children needed to be kept out of the war. In fact, if he was right than not only Harry, but Ron, Ginny and Hermione would be at the center of the war and they all needed to be trained.

"I'm going as well," said Remus, "I'd like to see my 'nephew'."

Dumbledore nodded. "Very well," he said, and with a flick of his wrist, he conjured up a length of rope. Touching his wand to it, he said the word, "Portus" and everyone watched as the rope glow for a moment.

Looking at everyone Dumbledore said, "Grab your bags everyone, and then grab onto the rope."

Ron, Ginny, and Hermione all grabbed their trunks, (purses for Ginny and Hermione) and their animal cages before grabbing onto the rope.

Once everyone had grabbed a strong hold of the rope, Dumbledore tapped the rope twice with his wand and with a WHOOSH! The group was gone.

S.W.W.C.H.Q., Rome, Italy; July 16, 2004

Buffy, Dawn and the rest of the Scooby Gang (Willow, Xander, Giles, Faith, Robin, Spike, and Illyria) all watched in amusement and worry as Harry paced around the entrance hall of the S.W.W.C.H.Q.

They all knew about what Harry had survived in his first 15.5 years of life and they also knew that the loss of his closest friends would devastate him. Buffy got up from her seat and walked over to Harry. Placing her hands on his shoulders, and using a little bit of her 'slayer' strength, she made him stop pacing.

Harry looked up at her questioningly. "What?" he asked.

Buffy smiled slightly. "Nothing, except you're going to wear a hole through the floor with all this pacing. Plus you're making us all dizzy," she commented. "Don't worry; I'm sure they are fine."

Harry smiled back weakly. "I know, but with everything that's happened…"

"How can you not worry?" Buffy finished. Harry nodded. Shrugging, Buffy said, "I don't, but you can not let it consume you…" Buffy was then cut off by the sound of a portkey.

"Ah Harry, Buffy, good to see you both again," Dumbledore greeted the brother and sister.

Harry grinned and rolled his eyes. "You only saw us three days ago Professor," he said, then turned and greeted his friends. "Hey guys."

Hermione and Ginny ran to Harry and caught him up in a huge bone-crushing hug.

"Harry!" they both said right before smacking his arm after releasing him from their hug.

"Don't you dare do that to us again you prat!" Hermione scolded.

Harry shook his head, same old Hermione. "Hey, it's not my fault that my uncle is as dangerous a psychopath as Moldy Voldy."

Ron, Hermione, and Molly all looked shocked, while everyone else in the room looked amused.

Ginny just outright giggled. If anyone could understand Harry's deep hatred for Voldemort,

it would be Ginny. After all, she was the first person besides Harry to have faced Voldemort head on before his full resurrection two years ago.

After the shock of the new nickname for Voldemort wore off, Harry grinned mentally. This is going to be fun, he thought.

Looking at The Weasley's, Hermione and Remus he said, "Well, let me just welcome you all to the Slayers and Watchers World Council Headquarters. Also known as Scooby Central."

Ron, Ginny and Molly, who had never watched muggle television, gave Harry blank stares as Hermione and Remus gave Harry curious looks.

Harry, noticing the looks that his friends were giving them decided to explain. "You all know what the slayer is, right?" Some nodded and some shook their head. "A slayer is one girl in the world chosen for her generation to fight off vampires, demons and all manner of dark creatures. A watcher is there to train her to her gifts and to help her research."

Hermione went into full researcher mode and started saying, "Wait a second, Harry. Slayers are only myths. All the books I've read said that there is no su…"

Harry smirked. "Hermione, slayers definitely do exist. You know how big my uncle is right?" at everyone's nod Harry continued, "When he tried to kill me a couple weeks ago Buffy punched him...and he flew across the living room. I've also seen her when she's on patr…oops!"

Buffy smacked Harry upside the head lightly. "I told you not to follow me when I patrol. We are so going to talk about this before bed," she threatened.

Resigning himself to the lecture Harry continued on. "Twenty three years ago, the current slayer was born. About a year after she was called, she went to guard the Hellmouth in Sunnydale California. Which is where she met her new watcher Giles," Giles stood up and nodded at everyone, "and her best friends, Willow Rosenberg and Xander Harris, who once they discovered the truth, decided to help her. It was Xander who called their group the 'Scooby Gang' after the cartoon."

Harry paused for a moment to let what he told everyone sink in before he pointed to Buffy and said, "This is Elizabeth 'Buffy' Lily-Anne Potter Summers, the oldest, original and longest living slayer…" he was about to continue when Remus interrupted.

"Did you say Elizabeth Lily-Anne Potter?" he asked shakily.

Harry nodded, "I did, this is my older sister. But she goes by Buffy."

Remus felt tears form in his eyes as he went over and pulled Buffy into a hug. As he released her he said, "You have no idea how long I have waited to meet you Buffy."

Buffy looked at him curiously, her slayer senses were acting like they did when Oz was around.

She looked at Remus again and said, "Really? Wait a second, you're a werewolf…you're Remus Lupin, right?" Remus nodded slowly, not sure of what her reaction would be to his being a werewolf. "Cool, we have a friend who's a werewolf and he's really nice, except for when he goes all grrrrrr...on the full moon, then we just locked him up for the night."

Remus felt a smile cross his face as he heard what Buffy said. He should've known that Buffy would be like her father and brother in regards to how they treated him.

Hermione, Ron, Ginny, and Molly all looked from Buffy to Harry and back and forth for a few moments before Hermione spoke up.

"But Harry, I thought you were an only child," Hermione said bluntly.

Harry just smiled and said, "Well it looks like we were wrong. My mum and dad had Buffy when they were 16."

"Oh," was all Hermione said in reply. After Harry's explanation, Molly and Ginny both looked at Remus and Dumbledore for confirmation and they both nodded.

"How do we know your not all Deatheaters?" Ron asked. However, the look on his face didn't look unrepentant when everyone glared at him. "What? Don't tell me you weren't all thinking that?"

At Ron's remark, Harry just shook his head. "Ron, I know she's my big sister, because there were only three other people who knew about my mum being pregnant. And those were Sirius, Remus, and Professor Dumbledore. Mum left instructions for Buffy to contact Dumbledore before she found me so…"

"And when I found out about the kind of house my lil' bro grew up in I had to do something. So Dumbledore and I portkeyed to the Dursley's," Buffy spat the Dursley's name out like it was trash, "and the rest is history."

Harry grinned and continued the introductions. Ginny, though listening to what Harry was saying was observing the group of people. The one who caught her interest the most was Dawn. I hope that's not his girlfriend, She thought angrily.

She watched as Harry turned to Dawn, her forward, slung an arm around her shoulders and said, "This is Dawn Potter-Summers…my…twin sister."

This revelation was met with startled gasps from Molly, Ginny, Hermione, Remus and Ron.

"Um…Harry, what are you saying? Everyone knows that you're not a twin," a confused Ron said.

"Harry, Ron's right. I was there at your birth and neither your mother or your father said anything about you having a twin," Remus agreed.

Harry sighed and said, "Look, I'll explain in a few minutes as to how Dawn is my twin, but let me finish with my introductions ok?"

Everyone nodded their agreement and he then introduced the rest of the Scoobies, meaning Faith, Robin, Spike, and Illyria.

"And that's the Scooby Gang," Harry concluded. "Guys, the older guy is Remus Lupin, then Molly Weasley, Ron and Ginny's mother. The girl with the brown hair is my best friend Hermione, the guy with red hair is my other best friend Ron. And the red headed girl is Ginny, Ron's sister."

After the introductions were done and everyone said, "Nice to meet you", Giles suggested that they go talk in one of the conference rooms, after it was secured. Everyone agreed and followed Giles to the conference room.
