Chapter 9 - Anne
It was after dinner time when she ran into Lily. She had only brought little stuff to eat since she didn't need a lot because she ate with Remus every single day.
"Buffy? Is that you?" she turned and saw a girl about 16 who was dressed in rags.
"Remember me? Lily from the vampire convent?"
Buffy smiled, "Of course I remember you! You just looked different then when I last saw you."
Lily stepped forward, "Please help me, Buffy."
Buffy put on a sad face. "If it's vampire-related then I can't help you. I'm sorry. I abandoned all that when I left Sunnydale."
"Just hear me out please!"
"No."
And she turned her back and started walking towards her little apartment but Lily wouldn't be rid off that easily and followed her. Finally Buffy turned and said, "All right already! I'll listen to your story!" and they silently went inside Buffy's apartment.
Then after Buffy got themselves something to drink and sat down did Lily began to tell her story.
"Right after you saw me, I went to L.A. where it was hard for me. I had no money, no clothes except for the ones I had on me and no expreince for work. So I did what anyone would do; I joined a gang: The Vipers. At first everything was great, they didn't asked more from me then to work likesell drugsand all that. But soon they became more demanding, just a few hours ago, they told me I have to join in a shootout which I don't want to. But I have to because when I joined the vipers, I can't back out unless I'm dead." she said crying.
"Ok, I'll help you! But gee stop with the making-Buffy-feel-guiltily-plan!"
Lily smiled and clapped her hands.
"But first we have to do a make over on you so that they won't reconized you no more."
The next day after she had lunch with Remus, she took the rest of the day off and started on Lily's make over.
Two hours later -
Buffy stared at Lily who she wouldn't recognized at all if she didn't knew her.
She now had short, brown hair and hazel eyes (contacts). She wore nice clothes, plain but better than the rags she had on.
She sighed, it was time to leave again because just this morning she saw her father who probably saw her too. She had enough money to go on a one-way trip but where to?
Wisconsin?
Chicago?
Indiana?
Florida?
She didn't need to know where to go to. She could just go on one of those buses that goes anywhere in the country. She looked at Lily and smiled. She hadn't wasted her money at all, now she just needs to get her a job and she'll leave again.
For now.
She dropped Lily off at her apartment and walked towards the Denny's place she worked. There she talked to Melissa, the manager.
"So you're quitting your job? I can handle that. Before I forget, that lad left today too. He told me to say good-bye to you." said Melissa, shaking her head.
Buffy stared at her before she remembered that lad was what Melissa called Remus. She realized that she zoned out while Melissa was talking, she turned her attention back to her.
"It's going to be hard finding another waitress like you or similar to you."
Suddenly she remembered Lily, this job was perfect for her!
"Um, Melissa, I know someone prefect for the job. She's my cousin you see and she's desperately in need of a job." she said, happy.
Melissa was doubtful but she said, "Send her over tomorrow then, in your uniform and I'll see if she's perfect for the job, ok?"
"Ok."
Quickly but not that quickly, she ran all the way back to her apartment and told Lily the good news.
Suddenly the day came when it was Buffy's time to go. She laid her uniform on the bed with the name tag on and turned to pack the stuff she needs. Finally she noticed Lily standing at the doorway.
"Here's enough money to last you the week, ok? The rent's been paid for one more month after you're on your own. Don't blow it Lily, make me proud of you even if we probably won't meet again."
Lily walked over to where the uniform was and gently touched the name 'Anne' on the tag.
She turned to face Buffy and said softly, "hey Buffy, can I be Anne?"
-----
She knew she must make a decision but dread it. She turned towards Angel, "Are you sure Liam? You could finally be free! Free of the guilt you carry!"
Liam turned towards the Lady of the Lake. "I'm sorry but after all Angelus did, after all I done. I can't. I don't deserve that."
She sighed, her long hair covering her tears. "Fine but don't forget, Shamerinath will always be opened to you even as a sanctuary, Liam."
She stepped back into the water, watching him with sad eyes and a wave engulfed her gracefully and she was gone.
Angelus woke up right as he remembered that really happened. He smirked and thought, The portal lies in the Wizarding Community. The portal to the Riona of All, the most powerful human girl after the Slayer. But why go now? Here he had everything, everyone feared him. Also he even saved a seat for Buffy when she joins him here in good ol' Hell. He remembered that day too well.
"You almost made it, Buff." he said getting two swords from the weapons cabinet.
"It's not over yet." Buffy replied coldly.
"My boy Acathla here is about to wake up. You're going to Hell." he said, hardly waiting for the end.
"Save me a seat." she said, "But you may need it more than I do."
He smiled, he knew that she would have probably defeated him and perpared some plans for Drusilla and Spike. Buffy actually fell for Spike's alliance plan. He knew Spike didn't have the guts to betray him. He stood up and stretched, Drusilla would always obey him and was probably with him right now to declare war on the Slayer. In the end, he'll be victorious.
'Because I am Angelus, the Scourge of Europe and second in the line from the Master Vampire. When the dust settles and the fun is over, I always win. I hope you enjoy your last days of happiness and peace Buffy because when I come back, I will show no mercy again.'

I slowly closed my eyes as Ginny's breathing gets regular, signaling that she was asleep now and thought about my other life before I got accepted to Hogswarts. Harry and Ron don't know that I was different back then until I turned 10. They didn't knew about the group of friends I had to leave and because of that, I became 'Miss. Know-it-all' to keep my mind of them. I'm glad that I finally found them after four years, four long years when I went to France.
I knew my parents never approved of them because they were wild, funny, rude, and adventurous than Harry and Ron. My parents don't know that one of my old friends that I ran into in France, gave me all of their email addresses so we can talk online. Which was hard because they lived across the acean on different time-zone and I have to stay in Sirius's manor but I don't argue or else it'll raise suspicion. I have slipped twice already, when I hit Malfoy in third year and when I let Krum see the real me. I can't keep up this act any longer. I wish I didn't have to hide the real me but if I don't, there will be more family troubles again like four years ago. I stood up, reached for my favorite book, took off the leather cover and stared at a picture of us. Ryu, Aaron, Leo, Ariel, Roxanne and me, the R.O.M., our gang. Together forever, no matter what.

Meanwhile in L.A.-
Buffy sighed as she boarded the Greyhound bus and took a seat. She hoped that Li- Anne didn't blow it. She settled down on her seat more comfortably and went to sleep. However an awful jerk woke her up as the bus screeched to a stop in front of a group of people. They had on like robes of black with a white mask (A/n-don't know how the deatheaters dress like but pretend they dressed like this, ok?) And held up pointy sticked at them. All around her, people screamed and Buffy knew that they were doing magic, casting spells but what kind? She tried to sit up but found that she couldn't and also that she had a large, deep slash on her arm. She was losing blood really quickly and thought, 'I never knew death was so dizzy.'
The last thing any one of them heard was, "Avada Kedevra!" and a blind livid green light followed.
Everything went black and silent.
A/N - Hope you all liked it! Please review! Now here's the summary for the story I'll write, you know the one in where Buffy is Lily's sister?
The Last of The Evans Blood (or The Forgotten One) - Everyone knows that Jasmine Evans was coming home from Hogwarts when she disappeared without a trace. Of course what caused her disappearence? And why after many years of her 'death' one of the members of the order sees her at where the Hellmouth is located? Is she truly Jasmine Evans or her daughter?
Tell me what you think of this story's summary and whether I should start it now. Please review again!
