Chapter 7

The next day something very interesting happened, even for Sunnydale. Buffy gained a sister, or at least somebody everybody remembers as her sister. Due to our memory backup precautions we quickly realized that Dawn wasn't her sister but some type of being comprised of interdimensional energies. They weren't Hellmouth energies. It was like she is made of pure magic but can't consciously access it. Whatever the purpose for her being with us it wasn't malicious on her part.

She had no idea that her memories are fabricated. Everyone in our household have two sets of memories now. One set without Dawn in them and the other with this girl as Buffy's sister for the last fourteen years. Buffy decided it best not to tell her new sister or anybody outside our house about Dawn's actual status. Regardless of her origins we don't want to hurt the girl.

That same night Harmony showed back up in town with a gang of vamps. They sucked the owner of the magic shop dry of blood. Harmony turned out to be convinced she is Buffy's arch nemesis. We all thought it quite amusing (especially Cordy) but decided it was best not to let the blood sucker get away with anything. Leaving any vamp capable of harming living beings around is a bad idea in general. Harmony's gang made it too easy for us when they tried to attack our campus house. Faith and Buffy had a fun time taking them apart until they were dust.

The vamps didn't even make it closer than five meters to the house thanks to the wards. I decided for further amusement after everybody but Harmony was dust.

"Hold off girls," I told the two slayers.

"What's up Harry," Buffy asked.

"Watch," I reply as I wave my hand at Harmony.

I hit the blonde former Cordette turned vamp with an overpowered full body bind. Then I concentrate on summoning a special chip from my basement lab. Summoning something from so far away is sort of like remote apparition mixed with a switching spell (switching air for the object). It's not really practical without the object in sight for battle. The special chip is actually the same behavioral modification chip Spike currently has in his head. A few medical spells later and Harmony now couldn't hurt a living being no matter how much she tries.

"Oh Spike I think you have a new shed mate," I told the bleach haired vampire.

"Hell is nicer than this. You really hate me," he replied while staring at his ex girlfriend.

"Two puppies," vamp Willow gushed.

"Yes, yes I do," I responded as we went back into the house, me cackling madly with glee.

Giles had decided to purchase the magic shop to give him something to do and a bit of extra income. Unfortunately before I could get a chance to put up any type of wards Giles' new shop was paid a visit by a demon named Toth. Wards in any type of public business can be tricky as it is. I'm not sure they would have stopped the demon completely even if any were present. The wards probably would have at least slowed Toth down. The demon turned out to be the last of his kind. From the distinct odor he gave off during his run in with the former watcher we tracked him to the city dump.

During the ensuing fight Toth fired off some type of magical energy blast aimed at Buffy. I appeared in front of my lover with a burst of apparition to block her with a shield. I was quite surprised when the shot passed through my shield, seeming to only slow down. That's what I get by underestimating a damn demon that uses tools. I should have conjured a physical barrier instead of a magical shield. Hermione reacted by hitting the demon with a blasting curse. It flung him clear over the garbage heap, not that I saw any of this.

I was too busy getting my wits about me. By the time they checked Toth was gone. When I got up from the garbage heap I was knocked back into my ladies were fawning on me and making sure I was ok.

"Harry, are you ok," Hermione asked with a worry filled tone.

"Yeah," Cordy agreed with her inquiry.

"Yeah I feel ok, just a little out of it," I answered while dusting off my basilisk hide battle suit.

"I think we need to get you home and into bed to nurse you back to health," Sarah spoke up.

"Horny bitch," Faith said while smiling at Sarah to take the sting out of it.

"Takes one to know one," the Romany replied.

"All right, all right…we need to get Harry home and into bed," Hermione ordered.

I flamed everybody back to their rightful residence (Giles and Jenny to their house with Joyce and the rest of us to our campus abode).

Insert Smut Scene here

About that time in walks an identical copy of me.

"Looks like I missed some fun," the copy says.

"Since I'm pretty sure I don't have a twin you mind telling me who you are," I ask too tired to really move easily but sure I can rally my magic to defend my lovers if necessary.

Although I realize that if he got through the wards I can hear him out.

"Well you know that energy Toth hit you with last night," he asked.

"Yeah," I answer as my head nods subsequently rubbing against a female breast and nipple which elicited a moan from a very sated female.

"Well it split us in two. I'm the fighting side of us and you're the lover. I checked some books that Toth wanker was working with on this magic rod he shot us with," my double explained as he held up the rod that shot us.

"So I'm guessing we won't be seeing anymore of Toth then if you have that," I asked.

"Nope…I tracked him down and took care of him," he replied with a smirk.

"Two Harrys," Anya perked up from her climaxed out state.

"Leave it to Anya to want more after being fucked into a state of stupor," Hermione stated.

"Actually I could go for another round myself," Buffy spoke up.

"Damn I wish I had slayer stamina and regeneration powers," Cordy stated.

I hit the girls with a wave of healing power. They were all quickly refreshed.

"Ok before you two recombine you're double teaming each of us," Faith ordered with all the girls quickly nodding their agreement.

"Fine by me," my twin replied.

We proceeded to do just that. Recombining was rather simple with the rod. Each of us held an end while we channeled our power through it. When warrior Harry recombined with me I gained his memories from the time when we split until we rejoined. Toth hadn't meant for the rod to split those particular personality traits but the shield altered the energy. I didn't tell the girls but I am pretty sure I can split myself and recombine the same way whenever I want. It will be a nice birthday surprise for each of them.

Even though the initiative was officially shut down I still kept tabs on the personnel. When the operatives from the initiative (Riley and his group) were having procedures done to fix some problems from the experiments their former boss performed on them the whole household knew about it. Vamp Willow caught Spike attempting to sneak off to have the doctor remove his chip. He was planning on convincing another vamp to help threaten the doctor into doing it. A few spells later and he won't be able to get the chip removing without his head exploding. I did the same to Harmony just in case.

Two days later Buffy, Faith, and I were on a routine patrol near a warehouse. The girls had just tag teamed a vamp when the security guard approached. The three of us chatted for a bit with the guard before we left.

"Hear…I think you dropped this," he said as he handed us a glowing orb.

"I'll take that," I said grabbing it before either girl could.

As we were walking away I was examining the obviously magical orb.

"Remember girls, if I'm here and there's something dangerous let me touch it. I'll just burst into flame and become a child for a while if it's really dangerous."

"Aaaah…I wish I could see baby Harry," Faith cooed.

"It was pretty cute. If I wasn't so distracted with the whole master thing I would have totally been carrying him around," Buffy smiled in response.

"Hey B…someday when we are pregnant we'll have to see how that works with breast feeding," Faith said.

"I'll be sure to injure myself enough that it would kill a normal human just so you can try that Faith love," I sarcastically replied.

"Well we can always try to fuck you to death," Faith replied with a Faith like smirk.

"It would take all of us," Buffy commented.

The three of us were staring off into space for a moment with the pleasure such an attempt at harming me would result in.

"So what's the glowy ball thing," Buffy asked to bring us out of our mutual day dream.

"Hmmm...If memory serves I think it's an orb of Dagon. It's a strong protective talisman," I answered.

"Cool. If it wasn't so round it would make a neat paperweight," Faith responded.

I just smiled at the antics of my two lovers. Closing my eyes in concentration the orb disappeared into my trunk. Giles was curious about where the orb came from once we told him how we acquired it. We planned on going the next night back to the warehouse area to look for the source of the orb. Sarah reported that the local hospital was having an influx of severely disturbed mental patients. When the mediwitch checked them out she found traces of power, sort of like demonic energy but less telling than normal Hellmouth energy.

I think my medical staff will be able to fix the injuries but it will take time. I have faith in my employees because despite what the British wizarding world thinks about their heritage they are the best at what they do.

Going back to the warehouse we found the orb at that night Faith, Buffy, and I arrived to see a massive door that looked to have been torn from its frame. Buffy ran forward to untie a severely injured man from a chair. Her slayer senses obviously told her about the woman sneaking up behind her because she caught the swing the woman took at her.

The surrounding air was literally filled with power that I could sense as the woman moved. She flung Buffy back against the wall. Buffy would have hit hard if I didn't throw out the cushioning charm.

"Thanks," Buffy thanked me with a grateful smile.

"Oooh...a wizard…I haven't fought one of your kind in a few millennia. Although I imagine your race has gotten weaker," the woman mused.

"Buffy, Faith take the nice monk and leave the building," I instructed them in a calm voice.

"What… are you sure," Buffy asked as she picked herself up again from the woman throwing her across the room into another cushioning charm.

"Yes," I replied before turning the ropes restraining the monk into a portkey to a safe house I have set up in town.

The house is under a fidelus with only the Scoobies along with a few mediwitches knowing where it's at. The girls quickly took my advice.

Meanwhile the woman in the red dress was talking like she is insane. It quickly became apparent that she probably is insane.

"Smart move wizard to send them away," she informed me before laughing madly.

"I can tell you're powerful but not how much," I told her as I threw out my hand and squeezed my fist as I try to wrap her in a telekinetic grip, to no apparent affect.

"Your tricks won't work against me wizard," she smirked as an aura of power dissipated my magic.

"What are you," I asked.

"Wouldn't you like to know," she smirked before she charged me.

I dodged her first few attacks before I struck back, only knocking her back a few feet. She quickly charged again and we exchanged a few blows. Her hits hurt like hell but I probably didn't tickle either. I began channeling my power into my limbs in the form of enhancement spells.

"My tricks won't work on you but I know something that will," I taunted.

"What's that," she asked with a confident tone.

"This," I said as I apparated about ten feet behind me and channeled a massive blasting curse into the floor below her and the ceiling above her.

"Shit," she muttered as the ceiling began to come down on her.

I quickly transported out and to the location of the safe house. I found a distressed Buffy being comforted by Faith. The monk was obviously dead.

"I'm sorry sir but the energies in his wounds kept me from healing him before he was dead," the healer told me.

"It's alright Janet. I don't think anything but the elixir would have healed him and it's not like you have access to that," I told her.

She just nodded before apparating the body to the morgue.

"He and his monk buddies were the ones who sent Dawn," Buffy quietly stated.

"Did he say why," I gently asked her.

"To protect her…she is supposed to be the key. He said she is a portal which they gave human form. Dawn is an innocent he said," Buffy replied.

I nodded my understanding as a few more things made sense.

"How did the fight go with red," Faith asked.

"Whatever she was I don't think we've seen the last of her. She is probably the most powerful thing I've faced yet. I didn't tap into the hallow power but I'm not going to do so until I know more about her. I don't want to tip my hand too early," I told them.

We went home to get some rest from a tiring night of fighting evil.

The only person we told out of the Giles/Joyce/Jenny relationship about Dawn's true nature was Giles. We thought it might come up with the supernatural affairs in Sunnydale. He promised to keep it secret when he understood how damaging it could be to Dawn's psyche. He cares for Dawn just as much as we do.

The next week saw the arrival of Tara's birthday. Xander and Willows girlfriend is being made very welcome in the Scooby gang. I've taken a liking to the nice and quiet Wicca. She's always willing to give a friendly greeting or listen if you want. So when her family showed up and she looked extremely uncomfortable I got worried that Tara's own upbringing might not be that different from mine at the hands of the Dursleys. One look into the mind of her father, brother, and cousin revealed that it didn't involve physical abuse but possibly some emotional abuse. Her dad told her at a young age that she has evil inside of her.

"She's not a demon you know," I casually stated after Tara's family walked into the magic shop.

Everybody appeared startled at my seemingly random outburst.

"Read," I said while looking at Faith, Buffy, and Hermione.

Red is the signal for all the telepaths in the room to use their powers to explore the mind of somebody indicated at the time. Under Hermione and my own tutelage both slayers can use their powers very well. They can now even project some thoughts into the heads of others. In this case we four telepaths relayed what we are seeing into the minds of the Scoobies who aren't gifted in the mind arts. The entire Scooby gang's collective faces darkened as we watched how they treated Tara.

"I suggest you leave and don't bother Tara again unless she contacts you," I stated in an even voice.

If you didn't know me you wouldn't realize that I was keeping my emotions suppressed with occlumency.

"I won't have you tell me what to do boy," Tara's father belligerently stated.

The man reminded me too much of my uncle at that moment. The others winced as they realized this fact over the still established mind link.

"I said out now," I screamed.

My eyes glowed killing curse green, I rose a few inches off the ground, and lightning discharged between my fingers. The muggles quickly took off out the door. I brought my emotions under check as Buffy and Hermione wrapped me in a hug.

"You're not a demon Tara," Willow told her confused girlfriend.

"It's just something the men in your family made up to keep unruly witches in line," Xander explained.

"Thank you guys," Tara stated.

"No problem. That's what family is for," Buffy replied as she initiated a group hug that we all soon joined in on.

That night some Lei-Ach demons tried to pay the magic shop a visit. Before they even got in the door the newly installed wards alerted us. I apparated behind the demons and beheaded all three in one powerful swing. I vanished the bodies before apparating back inside.

"Who was at the door," Xander asked.

"Solicitors," I replied as I sat back down between Buffy and Faith.

"I swear sometimes they are worse than vamps," Giles said.

"You just got to know how to handle them," I replied with a smirk.

On a routine patrol about three nights later Buffy was kicking a vamps ass in Restfield Cemetery. Faith and I were just sitting back admiring her form when it happened. Buffy got a bit too cocky and the vamp managed to stab her in the gut with her own stake.

"B," Faith cried out before rushing to her lover's side with slayer speed.

I flung out my hand and threw the vamp against a large tombstone with a telekinetic wave. The other hand shot forward and hit the vamp with a massive fireball fueled by my anger. I pretty much apparated to Buffy's side I was moving so fast.

"Oh god," she moaned in pain.

"Hold on Buffy," I told my lover as I lowered her to the ground carefully.

I looked directly into her wound and let my occlumency channel my feelings of fear of losing her and intensify them. Tears dropped into her wound, healing it within seconds.

"Thanks," she said as she stood up with Faith's help.

"Anytime love," I told her as I cleaned off the blood and repairoed her torn clothes.

That event scared Buffy a bit. She went on an information hunt to see how other slayers died. I finally took her into the living room and snuggled up with her in my favorite chair, a cushy love seat one of my lovers is always willing to snuggle with me on.

"Buffy you know I would never let anything happen to you right?"

"Yeah I guess so Harry. But nobody is perfect," she replied.

"No but we come damn close," I replied with a smile that she managed to return.

I started to channel calming feelings into her which seems to make her happier. I've always suspected that slayers tend to be mildly depressed all the time. It's probably a result of being demon human hybrids that weren't originally meant to be that way. I think I do a pretty good job of keeping my lovers away from depression.

"Buffy I can't imagine living without any of you ladies. When you smile it literally lights up the room and warms my heart. When you're sad I feel sad as well. I'll do anything in my power to make sure you stay safe and happy," I told her.

From the greenish tint her face took I knew my eyes were glowing slightly with my resolve and determination but it seemed to do the trick as she kissed me. It devolved into a snog fest from there.

November 21st 2000, The Summers Residence...

We were having one of our weekly dinners at the Summers' house. It was a tradition instituted to keep in touch with everybody in the gang. It's quite a large affair with Oz and his girls, Xander and his two lovers, Giles and his two lovers, and all my lovers and I. We aren't ready to include Spike and Harmony because despite the chips they are still rather unpleasant. Besides I've noticed a disturbing change in Spike's behavior towards Buffy. It's obvious to me that he's finally realized how attractive my blonde wife is.

I don't know if it's a slayer thing or my wife's look but she seems to attract the undead. They either want to kill her or sleep with her. Faith doesn't seem to have that problem. I'm basking in the light conversation around us when I let my magical senses expand to literally feel the souls around me. I notice a minor disturbance in one of them that wasn't there last week.

Opening my eyes I realize the disturbance is coming from Joyce. The others quiet down as I pull my wand on Joyce and start running some diagnostic spells.

"What is it Harry," Buffy asks.

"The elixir magic is heightened more than it was last week," I answered.

"Oh," Hermione responded realizing the implications.

"What does that mean in English," Buffy asked.

"It means something harmful must be happening to Joyce for the elixir to be fighting it," Hermione answered.

"What?"

"Calm down love. If it was something immediately life threatening I would have felt it sooner," I told Buffy soothingly.

She and Giles both seemed to calm down a bit. Dawn looked just as distressed as them. Finally I finished my diagnostic spell and pulled a vial out of my expanded jacket pocket.

I cast a spell to transfer the contents of the vial into her blood stream near her head before sitting down.

"It was a brain tumor trying to develop. The elixir was stopping it but was having difficulty with so little magic in your blood. It probably would have won anyway but that phoenix tear vial I just injected you with will make sure of it. It will also correct any damage from the fight," I told the silent room.

"Thank you Harry," Joyce said.

"Yes thank you Harry," both Buffy and Dawn chorused.

"No problem," I replied with a smile.

After that bit of excitement most of us were distracted with the news. I myself was working on a modification to all of the wards to monitor variances in the magic levels of the dwellings' occupants. Buffy and Dawn were spending some time with their mother after the scare. Hermione was also helping me. As such none of us were there when the powerful woman we fought the other night came into the magic shop and bought several ingredients for a dangerous ritual.

After a while Anya, who had decided to work at the magic shop out of boredom, had noticed the sale in the receipts. We decided there was nothing we could do about it for now. It did confirm though that this woman is at least as powerful as me. She would have had to be in order to cloak her power signature from the Magic Shops public wards. Later that night we found out what the ingredients were used for when a snake demon burst into the shop and tried to flee at the sight of Dawn.

Before it could get far I apparated onto its back and sliced off its head with my sword. It also confirmed her power if she could conjure the demon. When we found out from the newspaper that the snake exhibit at the zoo had been broken into and a snake stolen we figured out where she got the demon from. Gaining access to the security camera in that exhibit revealed that they were mostly disrupted by the woman's power but enough got recorded that we now know her name is Glory.

November 28th 2000, Sunnydale Hospital Mental Ward...

Sarah Granger was working late tonight running some tests on her patients to see if she could fix the damage done to them. Sarah loves her job. Her cousin Hermione had gotten it for her. It was kinda scary to work on a Hellmouth but she felt safe enough. Harry Potter was her employer and she found him quite well prepared. He told all his employees about what goes bump in the night and made sure they all had some basic training and lots of equipment.

As such when she heard a noise on the other side of the ward that didn't sound natural she followed procedure. She pointed her wand into the dark and cast a homonous revealo spell. It revealed the usual patients but also something that definitely isn't human. The creature apparently felt the magic because it made to charge her.

"Shit," she swore before her training kicked in further.

Sarah cast a spell at the wall before apparating out. The spell she hit the wall with was aimed at a runic array which was identical to the ones spaced over every patient's bed. The reaction was immediate as the array conjured physical shields that could take a lot of punishment around each patient's bed. They were enclosed with three walls (plus the floor, back wall, and a ceiling). The array also did several more things including activating a type of bubblehead charm to produce fresh oxygen while recycling carbon dioxide. It also activated the lockdown procedure throughout the ward. The windows and doors were instantly sealed and reinforced with conjured armor.

An alert also went out to Harry.

I am awoken from my sleep by my alarm going off. I immediately apparate myself to the side of the bed, sad to leave my naked lovers' warm embrace. Both my slayers are instantly awake and getting up with me. We all slip on our enchanted necklaces and concentrate. Our armored battle suits slip out of the necklaces and fit snugly onto our bodies. Luckily the alarm only went off in my head so our other lovers are still slumbering peacefully. I don't want to disturb Cordy's snuggling of Anya like she is her teddy bear.

I grab the arms of my slayers and silently apparate us to the safe house. When we get there we meet a somewhat calm Sarah Granger.

"Sarah what's the situation," I ask.

"One creature in the mental ward…I activated lockdown and apparated out," she instantly replied.

"Good work. We'll have it cleared out in a few minutes," I told her before apparating us to the ward with a full shield encompassing our forms.

We were greeted by a nasty looking demon with lots of teeth. The grotesque creature immediately attacked but hit the physical energy shield I maintained with a nasty crunching noise.

"Nasty little bugger," Faith commented.

"Aren't they all," Buffy replied.

"So who wants it," I asked.

The girls looked at each other before doing a game of rock paper scissors to decide who gets to handle the demon. Faith won so summoned her enchanted sword to her hand with a bit of concentration. I concentrated on manipulating the shield so that only a narrow slit, just wide enough for Faith's sword, was left unprotected. The creature was still screeching at us and trying to attack the shield so Faith threaded the sword into the slit and sliced down, cleaving it into two pieces. It screeched loudly but died from the mortal wound.

"You know I think you make it too easy for us sometimes Harry," Buffy commented.

"Yeah but he makes up for it in other ways doesn't he," Faith replied with a sultry smile.

"True," Was Buffy's response as I cleaned up the mess.

"I definitely don't miss that part…cleaning up all that mess was a bitch before Harry," said Faith.

"Especially for the clothes," Buffy agreed while nodding her cute head.

I shook my head with an amused smile at the fact that my girls' thought processes most often tend to revert back to clothes and sex. I'd be a damn fool to complain about the second and the first always means they look delicious.

The demon's body was transported to a storage locker under a stasis spell for identification later by Giles. It wasn't one I immediately recognized. It was best to at least figure out if somebody summoned the sucker. We left after deactivating the lockdown.

Giles did later reveal that the demon was called a Queller demon. It purged mentally ill people by killing them. We aren't sure who summoned it yet but they will probably reveal themselves in time.

A couple of weeks later I was taking Faith on one of our special patrols when we came across a vamp nest. Our special patrols actually involve flying over the seedier sections of Sunnydale while invisible on my broom. I've gotten all the girls the same magical contacts I wear so they are capable as seeing as much as I am (except souls because that's unique to the master of death). As such we both saw that there were humans paying vamps to feed off of them without being drained dry them.

"Holy shit," Faith exclaimed.

"Yeah," was all I could manage in reply.

"Well what do you want to do," she asked me.

"We'll wait until the humans leave and then take care of the vamps," I answered.

"Hmmmm...until then I know just how to pass the time," she replied with her sexy smile.

Faith and I did manage to have sex several hundred feet in the air above the vamp house. It took quite a bit of skill and patience but we managed it. When morning arrived the living had all cleared out of the house. I hit the house with a collaportus spell, sealing it, before I lit it on fire with an Incendio. It didn't take long to roast all the vamps trapped inside.

"Cool," was Faith's only response before we went home.

Christmas passed with a fun time had for all. I got everybody some powerful protection jewelry with enchantments I'd been crafting throughout the year. These included personal wards similar to the ones in the hospital wards. If you were in serious trouble you could either portkey to a safe house or bunker down into something I'm pretty sure could take a nuke with how much magic I poured into those things.

About the 9th of January Anya and Willow seemed to be getting into fights that they tried to draw me into. Giles had to leave for London to ask the watchers council about Glory and the key. Hermione wanted to go along. She provided them with an international portkey to make the trip faster. While Giles was busy with the council Hermione would be invisibly copying everything in the watcher's library. The collection had books that had no double anywhere in the world.

I decided to let the two fighting girls duke it out on their own. It turned out to not be such a good idea. Willow was attempting to create the Wiccan version of a lumos solarem spell. Instead she used a crystal that held one of Anya's old boyfriends. He was a brute named Olaf who she had turned into a troll after he cheated on her. They were smart enough to use their enchanted communications pendants to contact me. I tracked Olaf's trail of destruction on my broom and intercepted him right before he reached the Bronze. In the ensuing fight I ended up beheading the troll. I gave his hammer to Buffy and Faith as a present.

The spell Willow had finally found to deal with the troll but never got a chance to use intrigued me. It was supposed to send him to a reality where there was nothing but trolls. I've had encounters with alternate realities before. That's where vamp Willow comes from after all. The idea of such things has always fascinated me and gave me much food for thought.

At least the incident had gotten the girls to stop their bickering, somewhat.

The council quickly gave into Giles request for information on Glory. They are scared to death of us after we cut down the old guard with ease. They quickly revealed that Glory isn't a demon but a Hell Goddess. This actually made more sense since I have yet to meet a demon more powerful than me. Glory ended up showing up at the Summers' house looking for the key.

Buffy happened to be visiting her mom at the time. She followed procedure and activated her emergency beacon. The enchanted item is like a silent panic button. It alerted the rest of us to the situation. Dawn and Joyce were immediately portkeyed to a fidelus protected safe house. Buffy portkeyed out just as Glory threatened her mother and sister with death unless the key is produced.

The Knights of Byzanthium showed up in town looking to destroy the key later that night. They tried attacking Buffy but were quickly shut down. I was getting mighty tired of all these death threats and attempts on her life. I showed no mercy to her group of attackers. Their swords broke into shards when they met my blade.

I'm not sure if a fidelus will work against a hell goddess but I didn't want to put it to the test with my loved ones' lives at stake. I'm more relying on the fact that Glory won't know the address than the magical wards. It did bring home the fact that Dawn is going to figure this out sooner or later. I convinced Joyce and Buffy to let me explain things to her.

"So I'm not real," was the first thing she asked with a shaky voice.

I put my arm around her and held up my hand so she could see it. With barely any concentration a rabbit appeared in my hand. I handed the fluffy animal to Dawn who began petting it.

"Dawn you're as real as that rabbit. We all started out as energy. Energy and matter are equivalent. I have energy inside of me that I can turn into matter at will. We all have energy inside of us. It's called our soul. The soul of a wizard and witch just differs in the size, energy density, and how much more energy they can collect from their surroundings. Just think of yourself as another type of wizard or witch," I told her.

"Kinda like the ascended from when Xander introduced us to Stargate," Dawn said.

"Yeah," I replied with a grin.

"Thanks Harry. You really helped," she said as she hugged me.

After that explanation Dawn took her new status pretty well. The only times she really had trouble were with memories that weren't real. To help her I explained about the Halloween where we all turned into our costumes. Xander still has the memories from his costume. Those memories were drawn from Xander's counterpart in an alternate reality where he was his costume. More than likely Dawn's own memories came from a reality where those things did happen. That helped her as well, a fact that Buffy was quick to pick up on.

"Thanks love for helping my sister," she said as she hugged me.

"No problem. I'd do anything for my girls," I told her as I returned the hug.

"Well my sister isn't becoming one of your girls until she's at least 16 in her memories," Buffy mumbled.

"Ok," I replied because I'm in no hurry.

It seemed a few days later that Dawn was developing a serious crush on me. Spike's crush on Buffy seemed to be growing. We both decided to nip this in the bud. I took Spike out for a talk while Buffy did the same for her sister. My talk was definitely a lot less friendly. I basically told Spike that if he didn't stop staring at Buffy and doing what he is doing around her I will dust him. He knows I'm not joking.

Buffy basically told her sister that if she shows more maturity that she can become one of my girls at 16. Buffy isn't about to try to make it later since she started doing stuff with me at that age. Dawn is acting a lot more mature after that conversation.

The Scooby gang was hanging out at the Bronze a few nights later dancing and having a good time. I naturally had to dance with all my lovely ladies. My two slayer lovers were wearing tight leather and grinding against my body all over. It was a fun time until a not very well programmed female robot showed up looking for her creator, a guy named Warren. I could tell she wasn't human before she threw Spike through a window. I couldn't sense her soul. Ever since Ted, Joyce's disastrous serial killer boyfriend, Willow and I have been learning a lot from his remains and designs.

The problem most people come up against when trying to create an artificial life form is trying to make an Artificial Intelligence for some really sophisticated hardware. It's much easier to make hardware mimic humans physically than it is for software to do it mentally. I find the best solution is to design the software to control the lower level processes while the upper level decisions and such are controlled by a human. In other words keep it simple.

Knowing that she wouldn't react well to anything getting in the path of her objective, namely Warren, we waited until she got outside the Bronze before intercepting her. I wrapped her in my power and pulled her through my apparition wormhole to my lab. It wasn't too hard to figure out how to deactivate her. Warren does good work at least as far as physical aspects go. From her memory I saw that he grew tired of her and left her in his dorm. That's fine with me. If he doesn't want her I'll keep her for study.

I tracked him down the next day anyway just so I could put a tracking charm on him. It's best to keep my eye on people like that, the smart ones with little to no morals.

Nothing too exciting happened for a week or so but by the time the 8th of May rolled around the Hellmouth decided to come back to deliver its next action. The Knights of Byzantium tried attacking us with a legion of about thirty men. Needless to say I cut them down pretty easily. I kept the leader for interrogation. He even managed to tell us some more about Glory.

"Glory was the most powerful of the trio of hell gods. They banished her to live a mortal life possessing a human male. When the key is used the boundaries between realities will fall, all realities," he told us ominously.

Those were some of the thing I remember most. I disposed of him right after that because he was upsetting Dawn.

"It wouldn't destroy the boundaries between all realities, just possibly the ones in our local cluster," I told the assembled Scoobies.

"What do you mean," Cordy asked.

"Realities just like galaxies tend to group together in clusters except realities clusters are infinitely dense. There is something like 36 galaxies in our local cluster with the next nearest being 56 million light years away. I've been studying realities in my spare time," I replied.

"When do you have spare time," Faith asked.

"I make it," I replied mysteriously.

In actuality I managed to figure out how to mimic the field a time turner produces with my own power. So I can travel back in time in week long jumps. It really doesn't matter too much considering I'm immortal.

"So what are we going to do about Glory," Buffy asked.

"I'll handle her the next time I have a run in with her," I state with resolve.

"What are you going to do," Hermione asked.

"Just like with the mayor we'll let it be a surprise," I told them.

"Well what about Dawn," Sarah spoke up.

"Dawn come with me. I'll take you someplace safe for a bit."

I apparated us to Black Island where my illustrious godfather and his wife, Nym Tonks Black, now live full time.

"Where are we at Harry," Dawn asked as she looked around in wide eyed amazement.

"My godfather's place," I replied.

Walking into the castle I led her into the large library where I find my godfather and Nym reading. As soon as Nym sees me she jumps up and gives me a hug.

"Harry it has been too long. You need to come visit more often," she squeals.

"I'll try Nym but you know me. I'm always busy trying to keep the world from being overrun by demons," I wink at her.

"Harry stop trying to put the moves on my wife," Sirius pouted.

"Sirius if I was trying to put the moves on Nym she wouldn't stay your wife for long," I tell him with a smirk while triggering her to have an orgasm.

"I se…see you've been practicing with that power Harry," Nym managed to squeak out.

"Yes, quite a bit," I reply with a smirk.

"You're dad would be proud," Sirius stated.

He looked like he didn't know whether to be proud or upset that I'm flirting with his wife.

"So what brings you here Harry? Another apocalypse," Nym asks.

"Basically yes...Dawn here is the key to opening up the barriers between realities. I need her kept safe from a hell goddess while I take care of said hell goddess."

Both were staring at me with open mouths at my announcement.

"Cor Harry. I know you're powerful but how do you expect to take on a god and win," Nym asked.

"I've got a few tricks up my sleeve," I answered.

"I'm sure you'll do fine. You are the son of a marauder," Sirius stated as he slapped my back.

"Dawn I want you to test a theory of mine," I told her as I summoned something out of my trunk.

I handed her the object.

"A wand Harry? I thought you said she was a mundane," Sirius questioned.

As Dawn took the wand and a powerful glow lit up the room it answered my question for me.

"Here's my theory. That wand belonged to an ancestor of mine. Sirius how old is the Potter family," I asked.

"I don't know Harry. They're even older than the Patils. Their history goes back further than any recorded family," he answered.

"That wand belonged to a particularly powerful ancestor about 10,000 years back named Roselyn Potter. She just so happened to invent the art of apparition," I continued.

They were again gaping at me like fish.

"I know this from Roselyn's journal that I found protected in my vaults. The Potter's have a tradition that dates back from her time to always save our artifacts in our vault and always write a journal. Well after creating apparition, which is traveling through dimensions using wormholes, she wanted to take it the next step. She knew there were a certain number of natural dimensions in each reality with there being an infinite number of realities."

The others were paying rapt attention to my history tale.

"She wanted to be able to apparate to other realities. The problem was she wasn't powerful enough so she started building a gateway. She used the natural ley lines of the earth for power. She constructed what we now know as the veil of death which resides in the department of mysteries. You may wonder why she would want to make such a thing. She made one big error in her experiments. She didn't realize that quite a few realities in our cluster consist of hell realities. Do you understand so far," I asked.

They slowly nodded their heads so I continued.

"From there her journal entries stop because she tried to travel to other realities. I can make a good guess of what happened to her. She made it through to another reality but it was a hell one. When she did this experiment she targeted the veil gate at a hell reality. Well all of the ley line focal points are in sync. What one ley line targets the others will follow. Since the other ones don't have magical gates forcing them one way most of the time like the one in the department of mysteries we get weakened barriers like the Hellmouth in Sunnydale and Cleveland."

"Now something happened to turn a witch into a ball of energy. I think she met up with Glory and the hell goddess fed Roselyn her power to make her into a conduit back to our reality. The other gods saw Glory's plans to conquer more realities and banished her with the key being lost in the muggle world in the ensuing battle. Legends developed that were likely mostly false. But what matters most is that I think you Dawn were once known as Roselyn Potter," I finished.

"Cor," Nym stated in shock.

"What she said," Sirius could only reply.

"Does this mean I can't be one of your girls," Dawn asked.

"No not really. Wizards commonly interbreed with close relatives and after 10,000 years it's not really that close," I told her with a smile.

"Cool. So this means I get to learn magic right," Dawn enthusiastically asked.

"Sure. You can have Sirius start you off while I borrow his wife for a bit of undercover work," I told them.

"Hey," Sirius objected.

"Not that kind of cover you dog," I quickly responded.

"Darn," I heard Nym mutter as we left.

As we apparated back into the magic shop I began to detail my plan to the others.

Our opportunity presented itself the very next day when Giles found one of Glory's minions spying on us. Under torture he revealed that she thought Tara is the key. Tara had been in a bit of a fight with Willow earlier in the day. Xander had learned to stay out of such squabbles. I immediately flamed to the carnival I knew Tara was at. The others were quick to follow with the portkey Hermione made for them.

As soon as I got there I threw up a massive selective muggle repellant ward. The carnival cleared quickly. It didn't affect Glory of course or any of the Scoobies. We arrived to see Glory sucking the mental stability out of Tara. I concentrated and a long slender rod appeared in my hand.

The rod I got from the demon Toth is actually older than Dawn. It has gone by many names over the millennia but as far back as I can go tells me it was originally called the changeling scepter. It was used by a wizard to create the first metamorphagus. Today's metamorph is a shadow of those first powerful changelings. They could change into practically any shape they wanted including animals among other things. The scepter is now heavily modified. I hollowed out the center and replaced it with the elder wand capped off by a piece of a philosopher's stone.

As I walked forward to the bench Glory was now standing in front of I began to channel my power into the stone within the scepter.

"You can't hurt me," Glory smugly stated.

"Want to bet," I replied as I pointed the rod towards her.

She ran in a blur as she sped to me faster than the human eye could see and grabbed onto the end of the rod.

Luckily I'm not human and can see her move.

"Absorbio," I hissed in parseltongue as I released the power of the focusing stone.

Glory screamed as her body was wracked with pain. I soon joined her as my body began to fill with more power than it has ever felt before. My very cellular structure was being modified by the spell I crafted to work with the new improved ancient scepter. It was making me into a changeling to handle the power of absorbing a hell god into my core. The soul bond I share with my wives strengthened and allowed me to distribute Glory's instability on this plane so that I'm not affected by it.

The emotional bonds I shared with all my other lovers strengthened into soul bonds equal to the former ones of my first three wives. The very air around me was charged with power as I finished adjusting. I lay on the ground in a smoking heap with my clothes burnt off me from the power.

The girls slowly approached me.

"Harry," Buffy asked tentatively.

"Damn what a rush," I stated as I popped to my feet.

"What did you do," Hermione asked.

"I absorbed a hell god into my core," I replied with a silly grin.

"Harry James Potter," six women seemed to echo at once.

I ignored them in favor of the steaming figure lying beside me.

"Well that was unexpected," I stated.

"Is she gone," Ben asked as he got up.

"Yeah she's gone. You're free," I told the formerly possessed young man.

"Oh thank god. I've had to deal with her my whole life," the relieved man said.

"Harry can you fix Tara," Willow asked.

"No need," I replied as Tara changed into Nym.

"What how," Xander asked.

"My second sight has been getting stronger and I had a feeling something bad was going to happen to Tara. I got Nym to impersonate her after your fight this morning. Nym was able to protect herself after I strengthened her into a full changeling last night," I explained.

"Damn. I'm just glad he's on our side," Faith stated.

"Damn straight," Buffy replied.

A few weeks later, The Campus House...

The last few weeks have been hectic for all of us. My power growth has left me a bit restless. It turned out that all we needed to make the spell to activate all the potential slayers in the world work was more power. I cast it about a week and a half ago. It was sort of like giving the slayer spirit a massive kick in the pants to jump from one slayer to the next.

Giles and the younger council are busy picking them up under the careful supervision of Giles. Training will be handled by Giles. None of the old watchers bullshit will be flying around here. Speaking of the old ways I've decided that Slayer's not living to see their 20th birthdays is unacceptable. As such I've issued them some new equipment. I've further refined the fusion spells so that I can enchant them into bullets. I have a small factory producing enough of the ammo to keep the slayers supplied for good.

In addition to that the Slayer's standard equipment includes basilisk (bred in captivity) battle armor, a highly enchanted sword with pocket dimensional storage, several fusion grenades, an array of medical potions, and quite a few other things. I've also decided to start paying the slayers so they don't have to worry about finding other jobs. I have more money than

I'll ever be able to spend and it just keeps growing.

Understandably the boost in power had other effects on my fey side, namely on my libido. The girls were actually the ones to suggest that I take more lovers. With my newfound restlessness and my fascination with alternate realities I knew just where to find them. Today is the day we're going to leave. Oz decided to stay behind along with his girls to help train the new guard. I'm only taking a small portion of my fortune in various currencies (about the amount I originally inherited from my parents) including precious metals and gems.

Dawn is coming with us along with Willow, Xander, and Tara. I've given Giles, Jenny, Joyce and the rest of the Scoobies enchanted cell phones that will reach even through the barriers between realities.

Buffy walked into my study and sat on my lap while giving me a kiss.

"Ready to go," she asked.

"Yeah I am," I replied with a grin.

"Everybody else is already in the transport," she replied with a snicker.

The transport is actually my expanded trunk made very comfortable for travel on the inside. The others weren't too happy about such a mode of travel. Even if my enhanced second sight had gotten more powerful with my absorption of Glory there is no guarantee I won't flame us into a star. I would be able to survive such an event but the others wouldn't (well my lovers would after being revived using my soul bond connections).

As such I designed an interdimensional storage container where my trunk is safe until I call it with a parsel spell. I got up and followed Buffy into the living room where the trunk is. She climbed down in, pulling the lid shut behind her. I sent it off to the storage dimension before walking out the front door. Transforming into a phoenix I quickly rose into the air and flamed to the school. Hovering over the Hellmouth I began to gather my power.

When it was sufficiently built to a high enough level I let out a burst of phoenix song and flamed through the barriers between this reality and our destination reality, resetting the gate to the new reality. The other gates would quickly follow, essentially closing all Hellmouths, leaving it harder for demons to enter our reality. The army of slayers we left behind should be able to handle the ones already living on earth. We are on to our next great adventure.

End Part 1

When we arrived it was to the sight of a desolate and destroyed environment with rubble all around. I recognize the area as Colorado Springs from the SG-1 TV show. One look at Cheyenne Mountain revealed the situation to me. We hit the right reality cluster but the wrong reality. A Goauld Hatac vessel is resting on top of the mountain. I quickly flamed myself close to the mountain before turning back to my human form.

Willing myself invisible I quickly made my way inside the mountain. Before my absorbing of Glory I would need the aid of the broom enchantments on my battle cloak to fly. Now though I am 1 and 3/4 times the power of Glory. I myself was 3/4 her power and I absorbed all of her without detriment to myself. As such I used my new power to float invisibly off the floor so that I wouldn't disturb anything which would give away my presence.

Making my way deep into the mountain I found Kowalski and Dr. Samantha Carter getting ready to use the quantum mirror. I recognize the reality from when these two came through to get the aid of the canon SGC people. Extending my senses into the mirror I am able to get a better lock on the reality I wanted to go to in the first place. Committing it to memory I make myself visible, while still floating above the floor. I actually looked like I was sitting Indian style a few feet in the air.

"I don't think you need to do that Samantha Carter," I said aloud to announce my presence.

Kowalski quickly had his weapon trained on me.

"Who the hell are you," Kowalski asked.

"A better question would be what you are," Samantha clarified once it was clear I'm floating.

"Just think of me as a friend," I purred at Samantha while making her experience an orgasm with my power.

That is one ability I'm very glad to have increase with my power. Samantha shivered as she rode out her climax.

"What do you want," Kowalski asked.

"To help," was my reply.

"What do you want in return," he continued.

"Nothing. In a few minutes the Hatac on the mountain will be free of life. It's yours. Should you ever need my assistance again simply speak the word Harry into this mirror," I told them as I handed Samantha a mirror that can contact me through the boundary between realities.

With that done I floated out of the room and made my way through the base killing any Jaffa I came across. It didn't take long. I found Hammond badly beaten but slipped him a vial of phoenix tears to fix him right up. I then flamed above the mountain and made my way into the Hatac. I proceeded to eliminate every Jaffa there as well before disabling the self

destruct protocols on the ship. I then used its ring transporters to get aboard Apophis' mothership in orbit.

I wasted no time dispatching all life on this ship as well. I didn't even bother wasting time toying with Apophis before I extracted any information from his mind that might be useful. I then killed him. Apophis was no scientist but he knew enough about basic Goauld level science and technology to get by.

I took my new Hatac to the edge of the solar system before calling the ID transport (interdimensional transport) forth. I opened it up to find the Scoobies impatient to get out.

"What took you so long," an impatient Buffy asked.

"I had a bit of a Goauld problem."

"Cool! We're on a Hatac," Xander giddily announced.

"Yep I took it from Apophis," I told everybody.

The others were far too immune to my antics to be phased by my killing the supposedly powerful Goauld.

"The first thing we're doing is installing seats with seat belts on this ship," Hermione declared before doing just that with her wand.

I couldn't agree more after some of the accidents SG-1 had on these ships.

I sat in the throne and began focusing on bending my power to my will. In certain points all over the ship glowing runes appeared on the walls before the ship faded out of sight.

"Invisibility," Willow queried as she felt the spell wash over her.

"Yep," I replied to the smart Wicca.

"Everybody strap in. We should arrive at the correct reality this time," I announce.

After they were all situated I again focused my will and we transitioned to the next reality. A quick tempus spell revealed it to be September 25th 1997.

"Not exactly the time we were aiming for but close enough," Faith stated.

"Yeah it's about a week before the Torment of Tantalus episode," Xander announced.

"You all know what to do guys. Let's get to it," I told them.

"Shopping," Cordy squealed before she disappeared.

The others soon followed suit with their special portkeys. Using my new level of power I made them portkeys that are controlled by their minds. Basically they can now apparate anywhere within a distance equal to the length of our solar system. I gave the same thing to Giles, Jenny, Joyce, and Oz and his girls.

While they did the shopping, including purchasing our new house, I began accessing the orbiting satellites and downloading all information I found important to the Goauld storage systems. Being trained as a good hacker by Willow and having come from four years into the future relative to this reality I was easily able to bypass any firewall or protection. Plus the Goauld computer systems sure didn't hurt when cracking earth computer systems. Setting up new identities for us all proved to be rather simple.

Each of us kept the same first name but we all varied our last. I am now known as Harry Demire. We did this in case we have counterparts in this reality. A quick search revealed that just as SG-1 were fictional characters in our reality so are we in theirs. I quickly downloaded digital copies of the first Harry Potter book and the episodes available of Buffy. So far there was the entire first season available followed by two episodes of Season 2. From the review I read I can tell that it isn't exactly how things went in our reality. It will be interesting to watch later.

Obviously these actors Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Sarah Michelle Gellar, and so on are our counterparts in this reality but we don't have to worry about Entropic Cascade Failure. During my study of reality travel I've found that such an effect only happens with two beings from the same cluster inhabiting the same reality. We are nowhere near this cluster in origin.

This goes a long way to prove a long time theory of mine. I've always thought fiction is nothing more than a version of prophecy. Fiction writers have a version of subconscious second sight where they tap into a reality where what they write actually happens. Somewhere out there is a reality where the fiction plays out.

The others soon arrived back from their errands and I explained to them what I've found. We all were shocked at my complete absence from the Buffy verse in this realities fiction. Also quite shocking was how much worse all of their lives seemed to be after just the first season.

"Eeeeewwwww...Angel? I hooked up with Angel," Buffy whined in a disgusted voice.

"No offense to Amy but I prefer my men above room temperature and breathing," Faith commented.

I had managed to hack into the Harry Potter book author's computer and got her notes on all 7 books she was planning to write.

"My god. She makes me look like a whiny little tosser. She also makes Dumbles look evil but expects everybody to think he's the good guy. I mean look in the first book. He guards the stone with protections three relatively normal first years got past which are obviously just an obstacle course. He's just as evil as my Dumbles but most people still like the pedophile," I

complain.

"At least she didn't hook you up with the Weasel," Hermione complained.

"No she hooked me up with the other one. No this just won't do," I announce.

"What are you going to do," Hermione asked.

"Ms. Rowling will be publishing two versions. One where she can put the things she wanted in here except for us hooking up with the Weasels. I won't stand for that. We'll hook up with each other. The second version will be one where she'll publish what really happened to us, maybe even after what happened in Sunnydale. I'll publish the rights to both franchises.

I'll be putting this info directly into her mind periodically," I answer.

"This is pretty hilarious. I mean there is one big plot hole in her series that should be quite obvious. When you were entered in the Triwizard tournament either magical contracts can be confounded or Dumbles didn't tell you that you didn't have to compete. Either anybody can be forced to do stuff against their will by a magical contract or Dumbles is evil," Hermione

explained.

The next day our house was ready. It's amazing what changes you can get done overnight with the right amount of money. We purchased a large bedroom number on Rolario drive and made sure a high privacy fence was erected overnight around our large back yard complete with pool and newly installed sauna. The house just happened to be located next to one Captain Samantha Carter.

Sam Carter came home from a long day at the SGC. After the other day's incident on Cimmeria SG-1 had to go through a more exhaustive debriefing over the events where Teal'c and Jack faced the Unas inside the Asgard Labyrinth. Daniel looked so demoralized after having to destroy what he believed was the best chance to free his wife Sharai from her Goauld captor.

Sam just wanted to read a good book while sunning herself in her back yard. After changing into a bikini she made her way out to her back yard. She heard some strange noises coming from the other side of the fence her new neighbors put up. She made her way over to a spot that held a gap in the fence boards where she was concealed from the other sides by a bush.

Warning bit of smut…

Peering through the gap Sam was shocked to see a stunning dark haired woman sucking the large cock of a very attractive dark haired man. Sam felt her nipples harden instantly and her pussy moisten at the sight. She hasn't had sex since breaking up with her ex fiancé in the academy. Sam quickly slipped her hand into her bikini bottoms and started stimulating her moist folds, never realizing that the inhabitants of the next yard could see through the fence with the aid of certain visually enhancing contacts.

Sam watched as all 6 of the women in the back yard rode the man's massive cock to several intense orgasms. She fingered herself to several orgasms during that time. She was growing increasingly impressed as the man never lost hardness throughout it all. She was then even more shocked when they all started taking his large cock in their butts with no apparent pain. She had never tried anal sex. She knows she has a nice butt because her lovers always eventually try to get her to do it in the ass. She has just never trusted anybody enough. She watched her new neighbors for several hours and by the end of it she became convinced that her new neighbor is some type of sex beast.

October 3rd, SGC Briefing Room...

I walked into the briefing room after hearing Hammond approve the mission for a rescue attempt for Ernest Littlefield. Nobody but Hammond saw me yet.

"There is another person who will be joining you on this mission Colonel," Hammond stated.

"Who's that," he asked.

"Dr. Harry Demire," he replied as he indicated me.

The group turned around and I could see Sam had to work to suppress her reaction. As I shook everybody's hand I caused Sam to have an orgasm. Her mind was screaming thoughts of how she couldn't believe I'm here after she has watched us have sex every day for the last few days through the fence.

"What exactly are you a doctor of Dr. Demire," Catherine asked.

"Harry please. I have a medical doctorate, a PhD in Electromechanical Engineering, and a PhD in Solid State Physics," I answered.

Everyone but Hammond appeared quite shocked.

"Dr. Demire comes highly recommended by the Pentagon. As you can imagine we've been trying to recruit him for the program for some time now. His one condition was that he would be on SG-1 so your team will now have five members," Hammond spoke up.

"Well I probably would have been here sooner if you had explained what it was you wanted me to sign the non disclosure agreements for," I replied.

"They told you without signing them first," O'Neill asked surprised.

"It was deemed that he was an acceptable risk seeing how valuable his research and skills are," Hammond again explained.

"What exactly is your area of research," Sam asked.

"That's a secret. If I'm around long enough you might just find out," I replied with a wink that caused her to blush.

After we arrived through the gate we began looking around. I immediately concentrated on my power and channeled a massive strengthening charm into the entire structure. With the power I put into it the structure would last at least another 100 years. As soon as Ernest stumbled in I walked up to him. He poked me to make sure I'm real. When he hugged me I injected him with a needle.

"What's that," Sam asked.

"Part of my research. I might tell you someday. Let's just say it will strengthen Ernest," I answered.

Sam thought about his reply and thought that maybe that explained how Harry is able to stay hard for that long. Sam couldn't help but check him out constantly. She knows exactly what he looks like under those clothes

As soon as Ernest revealed the Great Race Alliance console I started interfacing the laptop I brought with me.

"What type of laptop is that? I don't recognize the brand," Sam asked.

I smiled at her endless curiosity as I replied.

"I made it myself."

It is true that I made it myself but I constructed it using the latest technomancy techniques combined with Goauld tech. Like the ID transport it contained an expanded space that held more processing power and memory than its size allowed for. It didn't take me long to download the contents of the console. Daniel was satisfied enough to leave after that.

When the DHD damage was revealed Sam and I worked quickly to try to get it working. I was able to fix the damage thanks to my recent study of Goauld science. While they were by no means as advanced as the Alterans they could fix simple circuit breaks like the falling stone caused with the DHD.

"You're good," Sam commented after we got back through the gate.

"You're not so bad yourself Sam," I replied.

"So would you like to join my girlfriends and myself for dinner tonight at our place to welcome your new neighbors," I asked.

"Oh so you know I'm your neighbor?"

"Of course."

"Well I suppose that would be fine. Maybe then you could explain to me how that whole polygamy thing works," she asked.

"I should think you've seen how it works for yourself over the last few days," I answered with a smirk as I walked off.

I picked up a mental shout of "he knew!" from a blushing Samantha Carter as I walked to find the recently reunited Catherine and Ernest.

One thing my lovers and I all agree on is that it was quite sad for Ernest and Catherine to only get a few years together. I managed to convince Catherine to let me inject her with the same strengthening solution I gave Ernest. It actually contained a onetime dose of the elixir of life. The newly immortal couple would have many years together.

Debriefing Room A Few Minutes Later...

A heavily blushing Sam tried not to meet my eyes as I delivered the news on the contents of the pedestal.

"So in conclusion besides a massive update to the periodic table we gain several hundred more gate addresses than those found on Abydos along with a brief history of our distant past," I concluded.

"So the Alterans built the Stargates and are over 60 million years old. We've met the Asgard, the Nox, and the Furlings are long gone," Daniel clarified.

"Yes Daniel. I've already burned you a copy of the data. You'll find it on a disk waiting for you in your office beside your new computer," I told him.

"New computer," Sam perked up.

"Dr. Demire has graciously released one of his designs for SGC use only," Hammond explained.

In actuality it was a design from about 4 years down the line from my home reality. It was nowhere near as powerful as my Goauld technomancy hybrids but it was much further than earth was currently capable of. A 5 terabyte hard drive, a multi core processor, along with a DVD burner capable of burning 5 terabyte DVDs were just some of its features.

"Go," Hammond simply replied when he saw the eagerness of Sam and Daniel.

"You just know how to spoil them don't you," Jack commented.

When Sam got back to her lab she began exploring her new computer. Harry was smart enough to leave her a complete manual on its design. On top was a note that told her dinner was at 6. She was pretty nervous but she would definitely be going to learn more about the scrumptious man.

6 O'clock, My House...

Sam arrived right on time and was greeted at the door by a smiling Buffy.

"Hi you must be Sam," Buffy greeted.

"Yes," she replied with a return smile.

"My name's Buffy," the blond slayer greeted her with a hug.

A simple spell made it so nobody would notice the Scooby gang's resemblance to their famous counterparts in this reality unless pointed out by one of the Scoobies themselves. Buffy had initially been cautious about bringing more women into their little fold but now she was excited at the feel of Sam Carters firm body pressed against her. Her husband definitely had good taste.

Buffy led Sam into the dining room where the others were already waiting. As she entered Sam noticed a shiver pass over all the female's faces at the same time she was hit with an intense orgasm. As she was recovering she noticed an intense look of pleasure pass over Harry's face before the woman known as Cordy crawled out from under the table. It was obvious what she was doing as she licked some white off her lips.

"Why does this keep happening to me," Sam mumbled in reference to the orgasm.

"All will be explained in time," Buffy whispered as she took a seat beside me.

"So I guess you can tell we're not exactly shy around here," I spoke to Sam as we all began eating.

"He means we saw what you were doing through the fence," Faith bluntly stated.

"How long did you know," Sam swallowed hard in embarrassment.

"The entire time. You see we did it on purpose. Consider it an audition of sorts," Hermione told her.

"An audition for what," Sam asked.

"You may have noticed that Harry has certain needs," Sarah asked.

"She means he needs to have sex a lot," Anya bluntly stated.

"Sign this non disclosure agreement and we'll explain further," Hermione said as she slid Sam a magically binding contract that would simply keep the blonde from talking without harming her.

Sam thought about it for a long time but finally decided that if this conversation was going the way she thought it was then it is definitely worth the risk. We then began to explain our past to her briefly.

"But it's not actual magic right," she pleaded as we finished.

She already knew about my powers after I levitated all of us a foot in the air. I somehow knew that would be her reaction.

"No I don't think it is. It has too many rules. Just think of it as an undetermined energy, probably vacuum energy," I answered her.

"So can I watch the series," Sam asked.

"Of course. You also have a room here whenever you want. Oh and your house is paid off," I told her.

She was gaping at my casual mention of dropping over 75 thousand on her house.

"So what now," Sam nervously asked.

"Now if you want we do the initiation," Faith leered.

"Ok," Sam replied with obvious nervousness.

I stood up and waved my hand over the table, causing everything to begin cleaning itself. I then walked over to Sam and gently took her hand. As she stood I stepped closer to her and pulled her into a tender kiss. She had a dazed expression on her face as I eventually ended it.

Behind her Hermione used a switching spell to put the one time elixir of life into Sam's blood stream. My lovers and I had all already taken ours. Physical appearance didn't really matter much to those who could put up glamours or in my case use my changeling powers. I led an unresisting Sam upstairs to our massive joint bedroom. I began removing her clothes with the

help of my other lovers.

The next few days saw Sam adjusting quite well to life as one of my girls. She did basically decide to move in but still keep her house next door. After she watched the Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis series she was quite sad for a bit that she never managed to have a steady relationship. She seemed to throw herself into our developing relationship after that. I did spend quite a bit of time with her. Sam was smart enough to catch a discrepancy pretty quickly.

"Harry something's been bugging me," she asked the other day.

"Yes love?"

"Well the first series went on for 10 years beginning in 1997. How is it you have that plus the Atlantis series if you left your reality in 2001?"

"Well you remember the Janus spell Halloween incident," I asked her sheepishly.

She nodded her recollection of one of the stories we told her in the last couple of days.

"Well I kind of figured out how to replicate it afterwards and took a peek."

"What do you mean a peek," she asked.

"Into a future time stream. Basically I allowed myself to be possessed temporarily by another Harry. Unfortunately he wasn't quite as stable as I am. Luckily it was only for a few minutes but we still aren't going to do that again anytime soon. He was from a world further along in the timeline so had watched all of those episodes. Unfortunately in his world he was also a dark lord of sorts. He basically ruled over a good deal of his world," I answered her.

"Oh," was her only reply.

Settling in to start my work at the SGC proved as exciting as I thought it would be. Sam and I right away got the computer cranking out Stargate addresses where the shift was compensated for. We built a dedicated system out of one of "my" more advanced designs. It would crank them out much faster than one of the old Cray computers.

My second mission through the gate was the one from the episode Bloodlines. The Scoobies as a group had pretty much decided that changing too much would throw the timeline off so much that we don't know what's going on. So we pretty much are going to leave a lot of events stay the same. At the same time there would be a lot of changes as well.

The only things we changed from the canon episode was Sam bringing a much larger container and myself going with Jack, Teal'c, and Bratac. Sam and Daniel came back with 12 Goauld in addition to the one they gave Ryac. There really wasn't an easy fix to the Jaffa problem of their dependence on symbiotes, at least not without revealing stuff we don't want to. It wasn't like

the symbiote would hurt Ryac. I did however discretely dose Drayac with the elixir of life. In fact I dosed all of SG-1 and Hammond with the elixir. In addition to my liking Teal'c I did it because when we meet Ishta I have plans for her.

Ryac still needed to stay off world so he could be trained by Bratac. Even if it wasn't shown too much in the actual TV episodes I get the feeling Ryac helped Bratac quite a bit in his endeavors for Jaffa freedom.

The episode Fire and Water really had no significance whatsoever besides possibly giving an alien the ability to move on. For this reason Sam and I used our access to the gate computer to not allow the gate to connect, labeling it as a cold connection.

When Hathor showed up on October 24th following her sarcophagus I took care of her quickly. As she was flinging her pheromones around in the main briefing room I simply slugged her, knocking her unconscious. When Hammond asked how I was unaffected I simply told him I held my breath as soon I met her after seeing the effect she had on other men over the security cameras. Hathor is now a guest of the R&D department at area 51. Her sarcophagus did not get destroyed this time so will also be receiving a thorough analysis.

October 30th 1997, Scooby Fleet Ship The Harris...

Apparating aboard what is hopefully the first of many ships in our fleet I make my way to a science lab where I know I'll find Xander. Xander and his two lovers have been staying aboard ship with Dawn. Xander like myself is fascinated with the advanced technology in this universe. He spends a lot of his time in the lab he claimed tinkering with various designs he

finds in the Goauld database.

As I enter the lab I find him tinkering with a Goauld hand device. As I take a seat in a nearby chair he gets a look of success on his face before slipping the device on. It lights up with a glow while he starts cackling madly with his success. I chuckle silently at my dark haired friends antics before I decide it's time to announce my presence. In hindsight it wasn't such a good idea when he was armed.

"I see you got it to work," I stated.

"Aaah...," he yelled in shock before turning the hand device on me.

I was hit by a force wave from the device which luckily the many enchantments on my clothes and equipment absorbed the brunt of. I grunted with the force of the rest thanks to Glories virtual invulnerability to most things.

"Oh my god! Harry are you alright," he asked in shock.

"Yeah I'm fine. Just be more careful. Any of the girls wouldn't have fared so well," I answered.

He sheepishly took off the device before sitting down in the chair beside me.

"Yeah I finally got the naquadah power cell hooked up," he answered my earlier question.

"Can you produce a few for the girls?"

"Sure. What brings you to my lab?"

"Do you know what tomorrow is?"

"The day you bring the cuteness that is Cassie into our lives," he flippantly answered with a grin.

I nodded.

"I need a favor," I stated.

"Anything," he quickly replied.

Alexander Harris had been through a lot in his short life. Parents that were abusive and living on the Hellmouth had made him have a very thick skin. His life had taken a turn for the better when Harry walked into it. The powerful wizard had set him up with a better place to live, allowed him to make a good amount of money for himself, and forced him to pull his head out of his ass in regards to Willow. More than that Harry was his friend. Harry is perhaps the one person out of all the Scoobies who could understand the abuse from guardians. They never discussed it but they both knew what the other had gone through.

Buffy, Willow, and none of the other girls could understand it with the possible exception of Tara. She had never been physically abused but emotional is just as strong. Seeing exactly how much worse their lives could be without Harry in it by watching the BTVS TV show really made the Scooby gang appreciate him all the more.

I raised my eyebrow at my nerdy friend at the opened ended reply.

"Well almost anything. I won't pull a Larry," he quickly amended referring to our gay high school bully.

"No matter how we try to justify it tomorrow we have to let several thousand of those villagers die in order to bring Cassie into our lives. I can tell it's wearing on the girls to do nothing even though they haven't said anything."

Xander nodded his understanding.

"I want to cast a spell on the rest of the Scoobies. It is basically a variation of the notice me not that will make it so they don't notice the fact that we could have saved them. I will shoulder the burden of it alone and cast the spell on you as well if you like but I'd like to share it with you."

Xander was thoughtful for a few minutes before he finally nodded his head in consent.

"Thank you," was all I said before I got up and left his lab to go cast the spell.

The casting went smoothly with nobody being the wiser until I reached our library where I found Hermione reading over some of the SG team reports I copied from the base. It's not exactly legal but I don't really care.

"Is it cast on all the others," Hermione asked without looking up.

"Yes," I replied with a sigh.

I knew I couldn't pull one over on my first friend, she knows me to well. She looked up at me when she heard the weary tone in my voice.

"There's no need to feel guilty about casting it Harry. We all love you and would easily agree to it if it makes you feel better. Besides you couldn't cast anything truly harmful on your soul bonded. The nature of the bond won't let you," she tells me knowingly.

"Thanks Hermione. You always know what to say to make me feel better."

"No problem love. Now cast it on me so you can have some fun. You haven't shagged me yet today," she told me with a leer.

"Yes love," I answered before doing exactly as she told me.

Finding time to shag wasn't really a problem thanks to my ability to travel back up to a week in time at will. I can simply take myself and my lover back however long it will take us to shag so that we have as long as we need without ever losing any time relative to the rest of the universe.

With Janet's help I managed to prevent the loss of an SG team. Telling Hammond and the rest that I want to test a new immune booster cocktail I've created for missions off world I injected the mission personnel with a very diluted version of the elixir of life mixed with a small amount of phoenix tears. It would conceivably block just about any virus known to man. Thanks to a little bit of mind arts Hermione worked on the higher ups in Washington I wasn't required to release the formula. The way it was justified is that they would rather me use my skills than not at all.

This also proved true when I revealed I had a way to remove the naquadah bomb from Cassie's heart. The one stumbling block was the beautiful Janet Frasier.

"I don't care what the pentagon says. You're not going to operate on that little girl unless you tell me what you're doing," she furiously replied.

"I'll make you a deal Janet. You'll get your explanation at Christmas time but you're going to have to sign a contract to get it. Until then you're just going to have to trust me," I told her already planning on bringing her into the status of one of my lovers.

The stubborn CMO (chief medical officer) finally gave in and left the room but only after a threat to my manhood if something happens to Cassie. The procedure was quite simple. Using my powers I extended my senses inside her body to her heart. I then concentrated on breaking the naquadah bomb up into the microscopic harmless form of naquadah. It went very well.

Besides being able to control Goauld technology she will have no ill side effects.

We let Janet take her again but were prepared to adopt the cute little girl in a heartbeat if necessary. Buffy and the other girls did volunteer to watch Cassie when Janet had to work. While the girls were frequently busy with various things between them all they easily had the time to provide constant care for Cassie if necessary.

Janet was planning on getting a house because her current apartment wasn't big enough for the both of them. Sam insisted they move into her place since she isn't really using it. It made it much easier for Cassie when she only had to go next door or could even stay at home with one of my lovers going over to watch her.

The SG team made it back from that planet thanks to my immune booster. Nirrti didn't bother checking their vitals after administering the virus because she was so sure of her success. They did get sick and pass out for a bit but the booster quickly fought it off. Thanks to its dilution it couldn't completely fight off a lethal infection without some side effects. I was very tempted to test one of my new snitch nukes on her Hatac but it wasn't her time yet. She'll get hers.

The snitch nuke is exactly what it sounds like. The snitches don't need air to move (the wings are more of a special effect) so worked fine in space. They contained an expanded inner space just like a fusion grenade snitch. But instead of a contained ball of plasma these contain high yield nuclear weapons. If one of us Scoobies launches one from a planet we can use our contacts to see through the atmosphere and direct it with our mind. When it reaches the shields it portkeys right through and detonates against the hull of the ship where the shield won't protect it. I got the idea from a later episode of SG-1 when they took out Anubis' super weapon.

When I officially took the girls on a vacation to Hawaii for a week on our Christmas vacation we actually boarded The Harris. We then jumped to a planet that wouldn't be visited for a while in canon and probably not at all now. I apparated down to the gate chamber. Walking across the room I stepped over a ring on the floor activating the device in the wall. Unlike Jack I know exactly what I'm sticking my head into. 55 million years of history of the Alteran people enter my head as a series of light flashes.

I shunt most of it to my subconscious mind to be called forth when needed by my occlumency. A good analogy would be that my occlumency will function like a search engine in this case. I now know that the only differences between myself and an Alteran are small ones. I'll be able to use their technology. We both manipulate vacuum energy when we use our powers but I'm able to handle more of it in a corporeal form. Their bodies could never take the stress of the energies that I channel.

Alterans could manipulate the energy without a focus unlike your average wizard or witch. A lot more of their power was channeled towards mental abilities developed over many years. I could develop the same mental abilities (quicker and more complex thought processes) with practice as they are detailed in the repository. Time is something I have plenty of. I would guess that at my current level I'm about a quarter as intelligent as your average Alteran. That's saying nothing of your Janus type Alteran.

Concentrating I recharge the small vacuum module on the device (the same model used to power the DHDs over so long a period of time) and store copied versions of my new memories within again. Before apparating back aboard I erect a ward that will kill any being entering the gate room with intent that would be harmful to myself or those I care about. I love intent based

wards.

When I appeared back aboard I faced an excited looking Xander.

"Did you get it," he asked.

"I got it," I answered with a smile.

I was then forced to watch his snoopy dance as I walked over to a terminal with access to the Goauld computer core. It had been severely upgraded for this purpose over the last several weeks. Using a technique also detailed in my new knowledge I mentally interfaced with the technology to enter the data faster. When I was done I cut the link with a weary sigh.

Walking up to Xander I placed my hand on his temple and channeled a small amount of information into his mind.

"Woh," he exclaimed as his mind was filled with a new level of science.

I just upgraded his knowledge of science to the level of your average Alteran with no specialty gained in later years. His mind could handle that much. I also gave him the ability to read and speak several dialects of Alteran, Asgard, and Nox.

"Thanks."

"Don't mention it. I'm going to go relax with several of my lovers," I told him as I walked off.

The girls all got upgrades as we returned to earth as well. The SG-1 Christmas party was held at my house. I had constructed several additional rooms by adding a new section to the house so we all stayed the night at my place. In the morning we exchanged presents. Almost everything I gave as presents was enchanted with additional protection charms or incorporated some type of hidden Alteran defense tech.

I particularly enjoyed the moment when just after Jack gave Cassie some dolls she loved I gave her my present. I led her out the back where she found a white pony she decided to call buttercup after she calmed down from her squealing and hugging fit.

As I was leading her around the yard on her new pet I distinctly heard Jack ask, "How the hell am I suppose to compete with that."

I particularly enjoyed Teal'c's response.

"I believe you don't O'Neill," the strong Jaffa replied.

The pony would be housed in a stable down at the end of the street thanks to us living on the outskirts of the town. I had the place built and staffed by a few local teenagers. I also got the girls a few horses for them to ride. Later that day it was time to keep up my promise to Janet.

Sam led the beautiful brunette doctor into my study where I presented her with a magically binding contract. It was the same one Sam had to sign. Janet quickly signed it after which I explained everything to her. Apparating her to the bridge of The Harris proved my claims to her easily enough.

"So you want me to be one of your girls," she clarified after I finished.

"Yes," I answered simply.

Janet thought for a few minutes while looking at her best friend Sam. I already know both women had experimented with each other quite often while in the academy.

"I accept," she finally replied.

"Good," I answered with a smile.

Insert Smut Scene here

Janet integrated into being one of my girls just as well as Sam did. She was rather shocked to find out she died in a couple of years in the show. I assured her that wouldn't happen now. We started releasing the energy absorbing inserts for the Kevlar vests much earlier now. Of course with our Alteran science they were much more effective than they were in the show, just not too fantastically effective for the benefit of maintaining our cover. Even without that as one of my women Janet is now constantly protected by some very powerful enchantments and technology, including an Alteran personal shield. Contrary to the less user friendly model found by McKay in Atlantis my version had no trouble working with the Scoobies. It utilized a very watered down AI system to identify threats and raise the appropriate defense, although I was very careful about making the system too intelligent.

Also there is the soul bonding protection that means as long as one of the bonded is still on this side of the veil the other cannot pass on.

Most of the problems with the replicators in the Pegasus galaxy arose because the Alterans tried to make their AIs too intelligent and life like. The problem with that is that biological beings have a little thing called free will. Even the Milky Way and Ida replicators were an earlier version who's AI had been messed with by the man who created the AI Reese.

I did create quite a few of the earlier version bug like replicators to help Xander upgrade The Harris with Alteran designs but I tied their control directly to his mind. They had programs to do just about whatever tasks he assigned but no free thinking that a higher level AI would be capable of.

The whole Corai episode in my opinion did nothing to advance the actions of the series beyond emphasizing how repentant Teal'c is about his actions while serving Apophis. So naturally the gate received a cold dial on that address. Part of the replicators job in upgrading the Harris included constructing a built in Stargate complete with some personalized modifications. Using this gate Xander sent a remote cloaked probe through to that planet where the probe manually disabled the gate unless it received my authorization to work again. I wasn't about to risk using the gate network update system to change the code. We saw how much Baal was monitoring such happenings with how quickly he responded to the avenger virus.
