The changes of time.
Behind an abandoned factory a group were gathered around a fire in a metal bin. A passer-by might have just judged them as just a group of homeless people and carried on walking, but light from the fire revealed that they had scales instead of skin and had misshapen horns growing from their heads, so the passer-by would have instead run away screaming. These creatures were Demons.
One Demon was shifting around uneasily, eyes occasionally darting around.
"What's with you?" asked a female demon, the small amount of scales and small horns showed that she was relatively new to being a demon.
"Nothing, just keeping an eye out for Slayers." he replied nervously.
A male Demon, who looked to be the best built of all the Demons, laughed. "I get it, you're scared of the Maiden."
"Maiden?" the female Demon asked.
"She's just a story, spread around to keep us at bay." the bigger male Demon answered.
"Care to share, I could use a good story."
"The Maiden of the Goddess is her full title, she's meant to be this really strong Slayer that can take down every Demon she encounters." explained the smaller Demon. "Some say she's a woman who lost everything in life and decided to devote her entire life to slaying, others say she's a divine entity sent by the goddess to rid the world of Demons; hence her title."
"It's just rumours though." said the big Demon. "She most likely doesn't even exist or is just another Slayer who's reputation got seriously overblown. Like I said, the Slayers will have just have spread the story about to make us afraid."
"How'd the rumour start then?" asked the female Demon.
"Every time the Maiden supposedly strikes she leaves behind her own calling card; a woman with long hair, angel wings, animal ears and a tail, and markings covering her body drawn on a nearby wall or on the ground." the big Demon explained. "A lot of Slayers leave calling cards to build up there reputations and scare Demons."
The full moon came out from behind some thick clouds and cast light of the group of Demons, the light also revealed the silhouette of a woman.
"Hey, who's that?" asked a Demon when they noticed the silhouette.
The silhouette then suddenly spread a pair of Angel wings, animal ears and tail appeared, and red tattoos glowed on her skin.
"It's the Maiden!" screamed the smaller Demon.
Some of the Demons started to scatter until the big demon took charge. "Attack her cowards! We outnumber her!" he ordered.
The demons then ran at the Maiden.
The Maiden then suddenly separated into three women as they jumped in different directions just before the Demons could reach her, the woman who jumped to the left only had the fox ears and tail, the woman who jumped to the right only had the Angel wings, and the woman who jumped over the Demons only had the tattoos. The Maiden was not one Slayer, but three. The three women landed together behind the demons and the light revealed what they looked like.
One had white hair down to her waist, had red fox ears and tail with a white tip, she wore a white tank-top, red trousers, brown boots with metal claws attached, a red sleeveless jacket with white highlights, red arm-high gloves with claws sticking out from the ends of her fingers, and a red fox mask with glass eyes covered the top half of her face. In her hand she held a bo-staff that was made of some sort of crystal.
The next had black hair down to her ankles and up in pigtails, red eyes, from her back sprouted a pair of pure-white wings, she wore a white tank-top, black trousers, black converses, a black short-sleeved jacket with white highlights, black fingerless gloves with white cuffs, and a black domino mask. In her hand she held a katana.
The last had shoulder-length red hair and brown eyes, her skin was covered with glowing red tribal tattoos, she wore a black shirt that showed her belly, white trousers, red trainers, a white bell-top jacket with red high-lights and the sleeves went passed her hands, and a black scarf covering the bottom part of her face. Held in each of her hands were arm blades.
The Demons also noticed something else, all three looked like they were only in there mid-teens.
"So the Maiden turns out to be three children?" said the big Demon.
The Demons no longer felt afraid as they were now that they knew that the Slayer they feared were just a few girls. Once again the Demons attacked; the last mistake they would ever make.
Around ten minutes later the three Maidens left the abandoned factory behind them, the still lit fire in the metal bin showed only a large amount of dust drifting away in the wind and a drawing on the factory wall; the mark of the Maidens of the Goddess.
In a shared apartment the Saxton triplets walked in and sat together on a large sofa. Across from them Matilda there age sat in a chair and looked up from the book she was reading.
"How was you're night?" she asked.
"Great, we managed to catch a group of them." said Vida.
"The irony of the situation was some of them were talking about us as we showed up." said Aria.
"Too easy." the voice came from a small radio-like device strapped to Layla's waist.
"Yeah, knew you'd slain, you're all covered in dust. Go get washed before it gets everywhere." said Matilda.
"Sure thing, Mati." said all three Maidens as they exited through a door.
Matilda had grown a lot since her small adventure at Hogwarts. Her hair had naturally become the same red as Lilly Potter and went just past her shoulders, Sirius often commented that she looked like a spitting-image of Lilly in her teen years, so as her first act of teenage rebellion she died the tips of her hair black. Matilda was the average height for her age and had a good aphetic physique from her Slayer training.
Harry walked into the room shortly after the triplets left to get clean. He noticed the dust left behind by the sisters and quickly vanished it before sitting down.
"I'm guessing Vee, Echo and Lea are back." he said, using the triplet's nicknames.
"Yep." Matilda said.
Harry had changed since Hogwarts as well. His hair was still the wild mess that the Potter males were famous for and went just past his ears, he had died the tips red, similar to his sister. Harry had become much taller than his sister and he had a strong physique; the downside was the reactions he got if he removed his shirt in public.
"Speaking of slaying, the twins should be getting back from training soon." Harry commented.
As if on cue, the twins teleported into the room.
"How was training?" Harry and Matilda asked.
Fred and George groaned in response and collapsed next to Harry on the sofa
"Trainer had us test the limit of our teleportation abilities for hours." said George.
"We barely had enough energy to teleport back here." said Fred.
The Weasley twins hadn't changed that much since leaving Hogwarts. They had grown their hair to their chins and their horns poked out from beneath their hair. Their bodies were leaner and more flexible, but that was common in Imps, and they had learned to fully control their tails to act like an extra limb.
"The girls back yet?" asked Fred.
"They're just washing up, ran into a group of Demons and got themselves covered in dust." Matilda.
Just then the triplets emerged from their room dressed in their dressing gowns and their hair wet. Since the sofa was taken they sat on some beanbags.
All of Vida's hair was pulled back and her full face was revealed, when her hair was usually like this she would wear an eye patch over her left eye, but her sisters and friends had encouraged her not to wear it and not be self-conscious about her eye, so her left eye was in full view. Layla had followed her sister's example and no longer needlessly covered the scar on her throat around their apartment. Both scars had faded since Harry and Matilda had first seen them and were white, though Vida's eye was still sealed shut.
The Saxton triplets were probably the ones who had changed the most out of their group. All three had become full Slayers and even went out on patrol roots given to them by the Slayer council. Vida could now partially transform into her fox-form and gained a sense of natural beauty, she also gain impeccable balance which she incorporated into her slaying skills. Layla's wings had become very strong and beautiful, she had developed the muscles needed for long lengths of flight, but this also left her with a slightly larger chest than her sisters' to make room for those muscles. Aria had gained a strong natural allure thanks to being a Siren and had to be given an amulet to cancel out most of it's affects, her singing voice had gained the enchanting quality that Sirens were famous for, this meant she had to be careful as to not accidentally enchant someone. All three were almost as tall as Fred and George and were still growing, their Fae qualities giving them the height boost.
"Are you two okay?" Aria asked Fred and George.
The twins groaned in response.
"They're tired." Harry said for them.
"Actually," Matilda said after yawning. "I think we all need to go to bed soon."
Matilda then got up and walked into her room. Not long after, Harry followed her lead and went to his own room. The triplets and twins first fixed themselves something to eat, and the triplets dried their hair, before heading off to bed.
Quite a few years have passed between A magic touch and Destined warriors, the Saxton triplets and Black twins are now all 15 years old and the Weasley twins are 17.
Since the Mafoys are on the side of the Slayers the Chamber of secrets never happened, since Sirius was released the Prisoner of Azkaban never happened, and I'm moving the Goblet of fire.
