Ron, Hermione and Harry all appeared back by the entrance to the small hidden store. Inside it all the lights were out, they were obviously closed for the night or at least they tried to make it look like they were. The three said nothing to one another and wandered back out into the street exchanging glances. The night made Knockturn Alley look even worse, of course this place was not to inviting when it was light out but at least there was light.

"What do we do now?" Hermione asked with a desperate voice. "Where are we going to go?"

"We could find an inn and maybe get a room for the night, because you know, I don't really fancy wandering around here with vampires out and all." Ron said looking around for any signs that the undead creatures were near.

"Sounds wonderful Ronald but we have no money." She said rolling her eyes ay him.

"Actually…" Harry said quietly reaching in his pocket. He pulled out several coins and grinned up at his two friends. "Left over fro the train ride." He said.

Hermione smiled and hugged Harry who was not expecting this. Then she pulled away and gave him a look. "You haven't washed those pants since you got back?" She asked.

Harry rolled his eyes. "Come on, let's just go find an inn, there has to be one somewhere."

The three walked down the dark roads, their eyes darting everywhere to look for more lurking, creatures of the night. The night was cold and damp, like it had just rained. They defiantly wanted to get out of here as fast as possible, this new world they were in they did not like. Finally as Merlin knows how long of walking down roads they saw a small light in the distance.

"Oh please let that be an inn." Hermione whispered and they ran the rest of the way to the light.

The small puddles all over the ground made their pants get wet and water splashed up to their knees at some points. When they reached the inn they sighed in relief, it was indeed an inn. They didn't waste any time and immediately opened the door and walked into the warm building. They were hardly in for five seconds when they were approached by a woman who looked familiar, like most of the people in this world did.

"Hello, children you want a room?" She asked and that voice reminded them of who she was. it was Madam Rosemerta. She looked about the same age, but she just looked… different.

"Um yes." Harry said and presented her with some coins.

"Oh gosh for how many nights?" She asked laughing.

"How much would this give me?

"Weeks." She replied and they were all stunned, the money value here must be different. Back home this would probably only give them one or two nights.

"Oh well, then we'll just take one room, for one night." Harry said and gave her some money, hoping it was the proper amount. Apparently it was a little over the proper amount because her eyes went a little wide but she said nothing. "Here, this way, I'll show you a room." She said and picked a key out from behind a desk. She walked up the stairs and at the third floor she stopped. They followed her down a dark candle lit hallway to a door near the end, she put the key in the lock and the door slip right open.

Inside was a well furnished room, obviously one of the better ones compared to the rest of the inn. She probably gave them this room due to the amount of money Harry gave her. "Here's your room, I hope ya like it. Would any of you like some dinner…?" She asked trailing off realizing it was probably a little late to be eating any dinner, in fact most people were probably in their beds.

"No, no we're fine. Thank you." Harry said stopping himself just as he was about to say her name, he figured since she didn't tell them her name. And who knows maybe that wasn't even her name here.

"That was Madam Rosemerta!" Ron said once the door was shut. "What's she doing in Knockturn Alley?"

"Dunno," Harry said. "What's Remus doing hiding from the ministry? What's Andy doing drinking human blood, when it's not a full moon I mean." He said with a small forced laugh.

"He's right, Ron, everything here's just weird." Hermione said. "But enough about that, we're safe we're here so let's just get some sleep. Okay?" She said and walked over to the bed.

The two boys looked at her completely take over the Queen size four poster bed and they slowly walked over too the two couches by the far wall. That would be their bed for the night.

"'Night, boys." She said as she blew out the candle next to the bed.

"'Night." They mumbled in unison as she shoved their faces into the pillows.

The next day they all awoke late in the morning, probably because they were so happy to get out of the cold night. Hermione woke up first, she looked around and sighed at the room she was in. She didn't like being here, she wanted to go home. To see her family, and not just her blood family, but Mrs. Weasley's who's been a mother figure to her, to Sirius and Remus, to Laura, Andy and Heather. To all the people she knew. These people here, sure she knew who they were, they had some same characteristics as the people she knew back home but they weren't. Remus wasn't a cold hearted vengeful criminal. Laura wasn't a prejudice, stuck up pureblood. Sirius, Merlin knew where Sirius was or even if he was alive. And Regulus, she'd never met him but she knew he was a death eater, here he was just a guy. All alone in the world, he was no death eater. Andy, she was a vampire, she drank the blood of the innocent. Heather was… well she was the same… Only she was a real bitch here... And Lucius Malfoy, that one hit her hard. He was a werewolf, a guy just like Remus apparently.

As she thought about all this she heard a moan come from the couches by the wall. She looked up and saw Harry slowly sitting up in his bed. He quickly noticed her and his brow furrowed. "What are you thinking about?" he asked stiffing a yawn.

"Who says I was thinking about anything?" She said defensively.

"You're Hermione, you're always thinking something." He smiled.

She grinned a little and nodded. "It's nothing, just about our current situation."

"We'll get back." He said reassuringly.

"I wish I were as confident as you." She said looking down at the sheets she was playing with on the bed.

Harry was just about to say something else to her when Ron shot up in the couch next to him. "Spiders!" he cried sitting up in the bed, this defiantly lightened the mood in the room for Hermione and Harry began laughing. He looked at them and then folded him arms embarrassed.

About an hour later or so the three students had taken showers and brushed their hair, or at least Hermione did. They made their way down the stairs and got some breakfast real quick. They didn't talk to anybody or make much contact with anyone, other then Madam Rosemerta. As they sat in their small corner table they saw more familiar faces, Ron could have even sworn he had seen Fred and George leaving but he was the only one.

When they were finished they paid their bill and and began to leave, Madam Rosemerta followed them all the way to the door talking to them about coming back and their dinner specials and whatnot. But they weren't paying attention.

They walked out into the street and stood there. "Now what?" Ron asked looking to Hermione and Harry for answers.

Harry shrugged. "I would say maybe find a computer and see if we can find anymore information about anyone, see if anyone is a possible ally."

"We could, but where could we find one?" Hermione trailed off thinking.

"We could go back to the library to find one of those com… things." He said giving up on the word, despite Hermione's word he never did take Muggle Studies.

"That's right we could, we could apparate there. We know what it looks like and all. I'm sure we could do it." Harry said not really wanting to walk the long distance between the two again.

Hermione and Ron both nodded and without a word they held on tightly to each other and apparated to their destination, hoping that on the way they wouldn't lose a body part. In a flash and a pop they appeared unfortunately in the middle of the sidewalk where there were muggles walking around. The three flinched at the sight preparing for the screams because of seeing three teenagers appearing out of no where. But they never came; they looked around at the people they didn't bat and eye at them. It was like they were completely used to seeing people suddenly appear in front of them all the time.

They looked to one another with confused looks and then began walking around the people who were now beginning to get agitated because they stood still in a busy sidewalk for so long. They started to walk down the sidewalk and up the steps of the library. There were going to get some answers.

As they walked they saw a shadow pass over the steps. Staring at the stairs for a few seconds very confused they then turned their attention to where the sun was supposed to be only to see a strange ink looking substance covering it and therefore blocking the light. This was defiantly done by some sort of dark magic, their first reaction would probably be Voldemort, but then again Voldemort might not even be in this world.

"What's going on?" Hermione asked looking around at the sudden darkness as the street lamps began to turn on.

"I have no idea…" Harry muttered, but this was all he was able to get out before screams erupted in the darkness. They all whipped their heads around to see and they saw people, no not people, vampires coming out and attacking. This was defiantly planned.

"Oh no, bloody hell no." Ron said backing up to the library doors.

There were dozens, they must have been waiting for the light to leave so they could come out. They looked around at the chaos, all had their wands drawn and ready to attack but right before any of them were able to say one jinx or charm two dark figures were standing before them at the bottom of the steps, looking too calm.

"Hello, again." Said a voice they all recognized as Andy. She was back and the one behind her was the vampire she was with before.

They remained silent.

"What? No hello? I thought we were friends." She said with a smile on her face.

"Expelliarmus!" Harry screamed and she immediately jumped up in the air evading the attack easily.

"Oh darlin', you'll have to do much better then that. See I'm prepared now, no little wand is gonna scare me." She said advancing to them. "What will it be? Face me like a man or run like a scared little child?"

Harry stood his ground glaring her down.

"Like a man I see, good. I love a fight, hope I can't kill you too easy…" She paused and then turned around. "Darlin'? I can kill him right?"

"Oh course, love, just let me get in on this as well," said the man who stayed behind her. "As I've said, you'll need some help with this one."

When he stepped out of the pitch blackness everyone was shocked to the point where they almost fainted. It wasn't, it couldn't be. No wonder there weren't any recent records on him, he wasn't alive in the time period they were looking in; there was no clue to how old he was. They stared for some time until the realization dawned upon them. Sirius Black was a vampire.

"What's wrong?" he asked stepping up next to Andy grabbing her around the waste. "Not happy to see me?"

"Sirius…" Harry said very quietly but the vampires were able to hear him.

"Right on the first try! Good on you mate!" He said glaring at him. "Now love, enough of this chit chat. Let's see what the blood of a man who survived a killing curse tastes like." He said as his fangs enlarged, his eyes washed out in yellow with only a speck of black. His face darkened, the evil completely washing over him. Now both their faces were vampiric, they were ready for a fight.

"Let's play." Andy said and the two lunged at the three students.

Sirius went for Harry, he was quick, quicker then any normal person should be, but then again he wasn't normal. Harry tried casting spells, jinxes, charms, anything he could think of but he was just to fast. Sirius punched him in the face making Harry fly back into the doors of the library. He groaned and slowly got up, Sirius walked over. "Damn, you're weak." he said with a disgusted look on.

"No more weak then you." Harry spat and before Sirius could do anything Harry cast a spell that made him shoot back and land on the hard pavement. To a normal person this would leave them dead or unable to move, but Sirius shot up in a second.

"Me? Weak?" Sirius said with a laugh. "Well that's bloody rich." He ran up and pinned Harry to the wall making his wand fly out of his hand. "Let us see who here truly is weak."

Not far away Andy was taking on Hermione and Ron at the same time. Hermione was lying on the ground at the bottom of the steps struggling to get back up, he wand was across the street. Andy had Ron on the ground underneath her and she was looking him up and down. "Well, you don't look like you taste bad." She grinned and then took him by the collar and threw his back against the brick wall of the library. "But I can't have you usin' that wand on me while I'm tryin' to eat dinner."

Ron held up his wand and tried to cast a spell but his nerves got to him and he cast it one second to late because Andy was already on him. She held her face close his and let out a low growl. "Oh this will be fun, darlin'." She said right before she opened her mouth and moved her head to his neck.

Andy was about to bite him when she let out a cry of pain and fell to the ground. She looked up to see Hermione standing behind her with her wand in hand. "Get off him!" She screamed and Andy laugh pushing Ron out of the way.

"Little girl's got bite." Andy grinned and began to advance on Hermione.

Harry was pinned to the wall much like Ron was but he had no wand and he had no one who had a wand. All of them were disarmed. Sirius was grinning like a maniac and he prepared to bite him. "Don't worry; this will only hurt a lot." Sirius said and bought his long, sharp teeth to Harry's neck.

His teeth only grazed the surface when he pulled back and let out a long cry. Harry looked up to see the sun beginning to shine down on them, the ink like cloud disappearing. He looked at Sirius who had smoke rising from him and was grabbing at his leather coat to cover himself up. He looked down at Andy who was just about to bite Hermione; she was covering herself desperately with her leather duster smoke rising from her as well.

Harry looked up and saw vampires all around the street turning to dust right before his eyes. The light was spreading and not all of them had anything to cover up, he saw only a few manage to get away before they turned to dust.

"This isn't over!" he heard and he looked back to Sirius to find him running along with Andy and jumping down into an open manhole.

They all looked around the street, unconscious body's lay everywhere, some dead.

"This is not good." Hermione said getting up with a loud grunt and using the rail on the steps. "What was all that?"

"I dunno… but it's nothing good." Harry said looking at the manhole they jumped down.
