Previously:
It was several months later that Faith rushed into Albus Dumbledore's office. "I know how to defeat Voldemort."
Shocked blue eyes met brown as he said, "You can speak."
"Yes, but not without pain." She waved off his statement because of the importance of what she had to say. "I know how to defeat Voldemort." She repeated, handing a sheet of parchment to him and watched as he read the contents of the paper twice through before looking up at her.
"How did you find this?"
"Slayer dream lead me to it." She answered. "I had nearly given up, but it came to me over a period of nights and this is what I found out."
"How do you know it was a slayer dream?"
"Because I had it too." A new voice, belonging to Buffy, said entering the room. "He may have a hold over her, but there wouldn't be any way to send it to both of us."
"I see."

It was several years later when a mysterious figure returned to Godrick's Hollow. There was a celebration, the figure noticed and vaguely wondered what was being celebrated.
The figure remained unseen as the people around were enjoying their time, but the figure didn't see the one person they were looking for. "Hello." The figure finally said, announcing her presence.
"Faith!" Lily exclaimed upon seeing the dark haired slayer. There was something different about her, but the redhead couldn't place what was different.
"Where's B?" Faith inquired as the redhead released her from a tight embrace.
"Some bloke named Spike came for her, they've been locked in her room ever since." James answered.
Faith smirked. "I wonder what they're doing."
She heard a familiar voice say, "I cannot believe you asked that, luv."
Faith turned to look at the brunette wizard who'd just spoken and replied, "Hiya honey. Why wouldn't I ask what they're doing?"
He paused, enjoying the sent in the air before grabbing the back of her neck, pulling her towards him and pressing his lips against hers in a passionate kiss. The kiss lasted a few moments before he released her.
"Oh." She breathed, before her eyes went wide. "OH!" She repeated a bit louder. Laughing she said, "Way to go, B. Knew you couldn't still be –"
"Do you mind?" The wizard cut in. "I'm trying to kiss you and I can't do that, well I could, when you're mouth's moving."
Before Faith could utter anything another voice spoke. "You both have a room, this is NOT it. Cut it out."
"I'm the Minister of Magic, and I claim this room for my kissing abilities." He proclaimed turning to Faith. "Get out, you wet blanket."
"Fine." The voice drawled. "I was only here to worn you that you're children are on their way and unless you loved having the "talk" from them I wouldn't advise getting caught." She continued. "Again."
"Remind me again why I keep you around?"
"Because no one else will let you bite them for your health." The figure paused. "What in great Merlyn's knackers is that thing?"
"Oh, that's Remus." Faith answered. "Don't give me that look, Servilia Severus Snape, it is."
"For the record it is Severus Servilia Snape." Going over, Servilia, picked up the frail looking man and brought him over to the Minister and his wife. "Does this" she gestured at the frail looking one "look like this one?"
"Well when you do it like that, Servilia." Faith tsked. "No. But I assure you it is." Servilia opened her mouth, so Faith interrupted, "Think of it like Remmy here not biting you, ever really."
"Oh, thank you honey, now I'm going to have nightmares."
"Well darling, love of my life, Jamie takes very good care of his Servilia." Faith began turning and looking into Remus' amber colored eyes. "And as long as he takes care of his Severus, you'll always have someone to bite."
"I didn't know Snape had a sister."
"I don't." Servilia replied.
"You sure look a lot like Snape."
"Did you not hear what we were just discussing? Or did the flees that usually reside in your butt move towards your ears?" Servilia commented. "I am Severus,"
"Hey, that's a good one." Faith praised. "I'm shocked I didn't think of it."
"I'm not."
"Thanks Servilia."
"I didn't say it." Servilia commented. "One would think that with your slayer hearing you could distinguish between a male and a female voice."
Faith looked around the room. "Oh hey, Severus." She said. "What are you doing at the Potters?"
"The Headmaster sent me."
"And how is Headmaster Dumbledore?"
"Dressed."
Faith's eyes widened, "How did you know about that?"
Severus reached around him and pulled forward a young girl with light brown hair. "I believe this is yours."
"Mauv?" Faith gestured. "What are you doing attaching yourself to Severus?"
"I was esploring Molly's house, cuz I was tired of hearing stories bout you an' Willow that can't be true and I fell through the fireplace and landed in Knocted turned - that dark alley and I ran and I fell and I saw Grampa Albie, though I didn't recognize him cuz he's not nakie and you always told us to find someone we knowed if we gets losted, but I didn't know Grampa Albie cuz he wasn't nakie and I told him that I didn't know him cuz he wasn't nakie like my Grampa Albie when he tired to help me so I found Severus and he brought me here and here you are. It worked."
"You're child has irrefutable logic, though how she has it when she has you as a parent I'll never know."
"I think I need to sit down."
"Knockturn Alley?" Minister Lupin repeated, grabbing for a chair for his wife, ignoring the yelp of pain from the man he stole it from underneath.
"Uh huh." Mauv nodded. "I didn't mean to, daddy."
"You have a charming child."
Faith awoke from her mutterings of 'naked Albus' and terrorizing of the world by bringing her family into it.
"Stay out of it Albus!"
"Down, Remus."
"Our daughter," he began, gesturing towards Faith and himself, "was in Knockturn Alley –"
"It wasn't as scary as ours daddy." Mauv began. "It didn't have vampires, nor demons, nor floating dementor." She paused. "Auntie Severus taught me how to get rid of 'em. Like –"
"Don't even." Servilia warned.
"Sorry, Auntie Mater Severus." Mauv said.
At this Faith's mutterings turned to wondering why Severus wasn't her children's mother, she was better at the job than Faith was.
"That would be biologically impossible for me to be their parent with you as the father." Servilia replied, hearing Faith's muttering.
"Evan has three mothers and two fathers." Faith sneered.
"That was a different situation." Servilia replied. At seeing Faith's facial expressions she added, "Don't back talk, I can have you cleaning all the blackboards at Hogwarts."
"Yes, Severus."
"Dang, she-he- Snape's got you whipped."
Both slayer and raven haired mage turned towards the speaker and commented, "That would be Lily."
"Mauv you shouldn't have been near any Knockturn Alley's." Minister Lupin replied still focused on his daughter that had his eyes.
"I ranned as fasted as I could, not like they was going to take me not no where anyways, bunch of wussies."
"Don't talk back to me." Minister Lupin replied.
"Ohhhhh, Mauv!" Another little voice commented. "Auntie Molly's gonna have a fit when she finds out wheres you've been."
"And what are you doing here, Eriu?" Minister Lupin asked.
"I knew wheres you were and I came right here." Eriu answered. "Ohh, Auntie Molly is soo mad, she's gonna distaplin-she gonna bruise your butt," she then clapped her hands together, "like that." She giggled. "At least it's not me this time."
"Why are we tolerating two Snape's?" Sirius questioned. "Wasn't one Snivellus bad enough?"
"Black, I'd suggest you back off that."
"Why, it's just Snivellus." He was surprised when he slammed against the wall, an iron grip upon his neck, effectively cutting off any ablility to breathe normally.
"That's why." Faith commented, wondering if she should have her children leave, but realized that they'd seen this kind of stuff before. "Everyone, meet the man Potter wishes he could be."
"I tolerated your comments before because they were merely annoyances, but anyone who outright insults MY Severus finds themselves on MY bad side, really quickly." Jamie stated darkly. "Give me one good reason why I shouldn't snap your neck like the twig it is."
"I'm the father of Faith's baby." Sirius chocked out.
"You don't look like Remus. In fact you barely look like Sirius." Jamie commented. "When have you bitten your Severus last?" He asked turning to the man he thought was his best friend.
"Apparently never." Minister Lupin supplied.
"Oh for heavens sakes, go bite Severus." Jamie ordered. "But don't scar my SAS."
Minister Lupin helped a shocked Remus towards Servilia and gestured for him to bite Servilia's outstretched arm. "Oh please, I enjoy it."
"Severus that was more than anyone needed to know." Jamie commented.
"Shut up, Jamie."
Rolling his he said, "Make me."
"Later."
He turned back to the man who was barely wiggling in his grasp and said, "You know that only makes me want to squeeze harder. I'm still waiting for a reason not to snap your neck."
"I'm the father of her baby."
"Again, you don't look like Remus."
At the shocked look Lily was sending Faith, the slayer answered, "I worried that my son would have some traces of Voldemort and talked to Severus. Then he did something and next thing I know he's Remus' baby."
"How did you and Remus get together?"
"Do you really need to have that answered, considering what you nearly saw?" Minister Lupin inquired.
"Yous was gonna have sex?" The twin girls said together.
"Mumsy and Pater, you know that almost," One started and they followed in tangent as no one could really follow which twin girl was who and who it was when speaking.
"Every time you have sex you have more babies,"
"And you didn't wanted more babies for at least another year,"
"'cuz yous was slaking on your duties 'cuz Pater don't let you patrol after your fourth..."
"Fifth month."
"After the giant trolled vampire."
"Yea, I remember him he was disgusting."
"Aunty Mater Severus, shush." The girls said together.
"Without protection, and I don't think you brought protection."
"Did you?" There was a slight sneering tone in their voice.
"Huh?" Lily questioned. "OH!"
"Told off by your pups." A new voice said before glancing around. "Ugh, you guys started without me." The wizard continued. "Why is Jamie strangling that person who I'm assuming is me?"
"He insulted Auntie Mater Severus, Uncle Sirius." Mauv answered.
"Oh, naughty, naughty." Sirius tsked. "Even I wasn't that stupid."
"Well, Sirius, you have a rare gift of intelligence that he lacks."
"Oh, thanks Sev." Sirius grinned.
"Eriu?" Faith questioned upon noticing her daughter was whispering to Albus, who had that infernal twinkle in his blue eyes. "What are you saying to Headmaster Dumbledore?"
"Just tellin' him that he'd be more comfortable nakie."
"Grampa Albie has decided to refrain from wearing clothing because he's retired and lives in the Bermuda Triangle."
"That's mumsy's talk for saying you're nakie." Eriu whispered loudly.
"I've said this before and I'll say it again." Albus began. "You have very charming children."
"Wait'll you see them around the full moon." Faith commented rhetorically.
"Oh, can I?"
"No."
"Darling."
"No." Faith repeated. "I'm going to lock them in our Ministry home, never to allow anyone to raise them but me and you."
"Right because that would be so logical to lock a fire mage, water mage, and air mage all in the same house."
"How can you – are they showing their ability?" Faith asked turning to Severus. "Doesn't my half count for anything?"
"Earth mage." Severus reminded. "And yes, your children will have a greater ability to control the wolf, unless under the red full moon, their ability to control their powers is much greater than a normal mage, stronger than most children, and they are able to sense the darkness that lies within a person – shall I go on?"
"To sooth my ego, yes." Faith commented. "But it's unnecessary."
"Wolf?" James Potter questioned shocked.
"Well they are natural born wolves." Minister Lupin commented. "You know, there isn't actually a cure for that."
"Oh there you are." A kind voice entered the home. "Eriu and Mauv you two shouldn't have gone running off like that."
"Grampa Albie!" The two girls exclaimed.
"In all his birthday glory."
"You're not helping." Faith muttered dryly,
"My beard covers my important parts." Albus replied clearly not phased by Faith embarrassment. "If Minerva can have her banana boy, I can be naked in peace."
"Auntie 'Nerva's nana boy sends us big nanas because he's got big nanas, and aunty Mater Severus makes nana bread cuz no one else knows how to cook since mumsy won't let Donovan into the kitchen since he blowed it up without super-bein' watched."
"He blew up the kitchen."
"I didn't blow up the whole kitchen, uncle Albie, just the oven." Donovan stated. "How was I to know that a large fire ball coming out of it wasn't normal?" He inquired. "And why is uncle mom – actually uncle mom seems to know what he's doing. Anyone for brownies and cookies? I've got plenty."
"Are those depression brownies?" Faith asked inching closer to her son.
"Does she make them any other time?" Donovan inquired, only to have the brownies snatched from his hands by him mom, who was now growling.
"I thought he was the werewolf."
"Oh I am. One doesn't just stop being one as there is no cure, but nobody stands in the way of Faith and Willow's brownies." He reiterated the point about there being no cure for werewolves.
"It's the only time we're escared of her." The triplets replied.
"Does someone want to introduce me to what I'm assuming are children?"
"You do realize what that makes of you."
"Obiously he doesn't know, he hasn't been payin attention stupid Potter-head." The twin girls said together.
"Mumsy always said to be nice to dumb animals, but this is adiculas." Romulus the final part of the triplets, stated, gazing at the men before him.
"Ridiculous."
"Yea, what Auntie Mater Sev said." Romulus nodded.
"Jamie, listen to Romulus." A female voice started. "Remember, we're trying to teach the children to be tolerant of stupid animals. Put the dumb animal down."
"He insulted Severus." James stated, still holding Sirius by his neck against the wall.
"Put. The. Dumb. Animal. Down."
James sighed an angry sigh, letting a bit more air into the man's lungs. "I'm not doing this because of you." He stated, throwing the man away from him, causing him to smash up against the other wall. "You never said how to put him down."
Faith chuckled, "Well, now that my family and I have scarred this world by showing it how it could be a better world. It's time for us to go home." She looked at her kids. "Go on back with Grampa Albie, children. Your Pater and I will follow shortly."
"Faith?" A tiny voice called once the room cleared a bit.
Faith turned to see a young child with bright red hair and hazel eyes and grinned. "Did you think I forgot about you, my goddaughter?"
She looked a bit unsure but then shook her head no. "You haven't forgotten me yet." She grinned before rushing at the slayer giving her a big hug. "Missed you."
"Missed you too." Faith replied. "I want you to meet your godfather, Remus."
"But I know Remus." Jacalyn replied.
"Aye, but this is my husband, the minister of magic in the world I live in now."
"Nice to meet you, Minister Lupin." Jacalyn replied shyly.
"You too Jacalyn." Minister Lupin replied, causing the girl to blush lightly, opening his arms to the girl. "Faith has told me a lot about you."
"Did you know today's my sixth birthday party?"
"Is it?" Minister Lupin questioned. When she nodded he continued, "Well, I think I have the perfect thing for you." He placed her on the ground, knelling in front of her. He waved his hand and a small coin appeared. "Hold this in your hand, and make a wish." He instructed, handing the coin to the girl, holding her tiny hand in his larger one.
Jacalyn closed her eyes tightly and bit her lip as she pictured something she wanted. Within seconds of the picture coming to mind there was a small whoosh of air as the magic tickled the back of her neck.
"Happy Birthday, Jacalyn." Faith whispered, causing the girl to open her eyes.
The End.
Yes, Dear Readers, it's officially the end this time. Though again, we didn't see Spike – but he was there, sort of. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed it. I wrote it merely for fun because my sister and I like to joke with funny ideas.
As I said above, there is a slightly longer explanation if you're confused on the alternant reality. My sister SeptinaStar thought it'd be an interesting idea if James and Severus were friends rather than enemies. In her story, James broke the walls down between the houses and became friends with everyone. In her story, James was a Gryffindor, Severus and Lily were in Ravenclaw, Sirius and Peter were in Slytherin and Remus in Hufflepuff. It's an interesting story; I'd suggest if you're interested you look it up.
Or if you'd like a shorter – and still kind of confusing or so we've been told – you should read Three Mother's, Two Fathers by Aileen_Snape. It doesn't go too in depth as it is a humor fic and created purely for laughs.
Time moves a bit different in the other reality, so if anyone is curious as to the children's ages I've listed them below. I sort of lost track of how old Jacalyn was when Donovan was born, but figured him to be roughly 8 months younger than Jacalyn.
- Donovan: 5
- Harry: 7
- Jacalyn: 6
- Triplets: 3
Well I guess that's it. Again I hope you enjoyed it as this has been one of my favorite fics that I've written. I'd like to take the time now to thank all the readers and wonderful people who have followed the journey of the two slayers' in the wizarding world. There are still some unanswered questions that aren't in this fic, so maybe if the muse and timing hits me, I may write a side story – maybe two, one to show Faith's past in the "J.K." reality and one to show Faith's movements in the alternate world. But who knows.
Later,
