Summary: Their lives at Hogwarts are about to begin.
Disclaimer: I don't own the characters from the series "Buffy" and "Angel" as well as "Harry Potter", but Joss Whedon and J.K. Rowling do. I just like to play with them.
Many thanks to Queensereya for betaing my story.
A/N 1: Read the content guide and Book I to see how everything went until they came at Hogwarts.
A/N 2: I got stuck after chapter 4, so I'm leaping from year 2007 to 2012. Those missing years will come back in the future chapters.
The summer was over. The brothers realised this when Harry and Draco were standing in line to be sorted into their houses. Only three months since the happening with Voldemort and the mirror. To the disappointment of Draco and Harry, the mirror had been removed, taking its spirits with it.
Although William still didn't fully understand the persons he had seen in the mirror, he was now calmly watching his brothers being sorted.
Xander and Angel were focused on their smallest, as Harry made his way to the chair. The young boy sat down and the hat was placed on top of unruly hair before the hat sank over his eyes.
Apparently a conversation was going on before the hat called out "GRYFFINDOR". Surprised, Harry left the chair and went to sit at his house and watched nervously as his brother and best friend were waiting for their house to be called.
Draco sat on the chair, eyes closed as the hat was placed on his head. Within seconds, his house was called. "GRYFFINDOR!"
Ron was shifting until it was his turn. He prayed that he would stay with his friends and not join his twin brothers. The redhead was calmed immediately when "GRYFFINDOR" was called. He quickly left the chair and almost ran towards the Gryffindor table where his friends were waiting for him.
At the head table, Angel, Xander and Severus sighed as they watched the three friends plot whatever prank or adventure they wanted to do.
"Ethan, take me to our chambers," Severus whispered as he got sick again when the food appeared.
"Sure, love," Ethan said worried, as he watched his husband turn sickly green. He helped the man up and guided him out the Great Hall. At six months pregnant with twins, Severus' belly has turned rounder than they had expected and it showed through his robes.
Students were whispering at they watched their Potions Professor leave the hall, his protruding belly shown admiringly. Most students were acting like he was made out of porcelain while the students with Death Eater parents were plotting evil. Those students were watched carefully by the Weasley twins and William, who was very protective of their Godfather and Head of house.
"Angel? Could you come here for a moment," Xander called out and waited for his husband to arrive.
"What's wrong?" Angel questioned before staring into William's closet.
"Please tell me this is yours," Xander practically begged as he stared at the piece of leather hanging in his son's closet.
"No, that's not mine. It seems to be William's. Does he remember?" Angel wondered worriedly.
"Let's hope not, I don't think I can handle a Spike teenager," Xander whispered as he stared at the jacket for several seconds before closing the door.
"Will, where did you get that leather jacket," George asked curiously as he fingered the fabric.
"I saw it in that new leather shop near Olivander," Will answered.
"Does this have to do with the two people you saw in the mirror?" Fred questioned.
"One of those people had bleach blonde hair and this leather jacket. When I spotted this in the shop, I couldn't resist and just bought it from my savings," Will said as he showed off the jacket.
"Shouldn't we find a reference of the character in the mirror in the library?" George asked. "You'll never know who it was if we don't."
"Let's do that next Saturday. Draco, Harry and Ron are plotting something else for their own time, so we don't have to worry about them following us," Will decided before walking to class, leaving the jacket hanging in his closet.
Saturday, Library
"Where should we look first?" George questioned as he stared at the many history books.
"Let's start with the vampire history as my mom used to be one," Will instructed as he grabbed a book and started flipping through it.
It didn't take the boys long before they had found the reference to Angelus, before someone joined their table. 'What are you boys doing?"
Will was startled when he heard his godfather's voice and looked up. "Hi uncle Sev, we're researching." Will answered vaguely.
Severus picked up a book, read the title and stared disappointedly at his godson. "Will, your parents will be sad that you didn't ask their knowledge on this subject. Clean up the books and head over to them. They will be able to answer your questions. And for once, please go straight to them and don't walk a circle."
Will felt guilty and chastised when he listened to his godfather, but decided to swallow the light fear and placed the books back into their rightful places before heading towards his parents' chambers. "George, Fred, this is something I need to do on my own. I'll tell you all about it when I get back."
"Dad, mom, remember when we had that conversation about what I've seen in that mirror?"
"Yes, Will. You know we remember that."
"I've been getting flashes of that person when I go shopping or going to class, just little snippets. Could you please tell me who that person was exactly/"
"I had hoped that we had more time before you asked that question, but I guess now is as good as ever."
After a long few hours, Will seemed to be satisfied with the story his mom and dad had told him. "I can still come to you whenever I have questions?"
"Will, you're my oldest son. I love you and always will. Of course you can come to me with questions," Xander said before he hugged his son. Angel joined into the hug and laughed loudly when he heard his son's question.
"Even when I have questions about boys and sex?" Will asked seriously before giggling at the sight of his father's face.
