DISCLAIMER: Harry Potter nor Buffy the Vampire Slayer belong to me. I only own the plot.

AUTHOR'S NOTE:

Harry Potter: The Seventh year of HP and Co.

Buffy: Inmediately after season two. For a hidden but needed reason the Buffy verse will change only for a year. Buffy was called at 14. So, she died at 16, she slept with Angel at her 17th birthday. Right now she is 17, yes like the HP crew.

Any questions ... review!

Also if there's anyone who would like to beta my work, I would appreciate it a lot if you could contact me by a review or a private message.

Now let's start this journey... enjoy.


THE TRUTH WITHIN

By: Anne79

Prologue

"Buffy could you please sign this?" Joyce asked gently. Her eleven year old daughter came with a red lollipop in her mouth.

"Sign?" She asked.

"Yes you are a big girl now, you can sign your name. You just write your name and your last name in a pretty way nobody else can imitate" Joyce explained pulling her daughter over her lap. The girl struggled a bit to break free, but came to understand her mother's strength was way higher than her own.

"What for?" The girl asked as she grabbed the pen her mother held for her.

"Well, my old school has sent a reminder of the place they have for you there" Joyce answered smiling. "but I thought you would prefer staying here in Los Angeles" She continued as she brushed delicately her daughter's blonde hair. "You see, I went to a school in the United Kingdom... but I think it's way too far, don't you?" She asked. The girl turned and glanced at her mother shortly.

"Yes... I would like staying here with Sara and Bonnie!" The girl agreed nodding.

"Well, I'm making a small letter to explain why you are not going to go ... and they ask for your signature" Joyce explained.

"Oh" Buffy muttered as she grabbed the pen and practiced in the air. Then she proceeded to do it in the yellow looking paper. "This paper is kinda funny" The girl said, she had finished her signature with a long curly end. "Is that fine?"

"Yes Buffy perfect"

"And was it cool the school?" Buffy asked as she stood up away from her mom's grasp.

"Yes... I suppose" The woman said without giving it importance, Buffy shrugged and continued to lick her lollipop leaving the room. Her mother sighed and continued with a second letter with the same yellow fragile looking paper.

Dear Albus,

I appreciate your interest in my child's well-being. We are doing fine, unfortunately I do not think it will be appropriate to bring her to Hogwarts. The threat of the Dark Lord still lingers in England... even in Europe. I prefer the safety of the distance. I prefer not to donate our actual location –you will understand I have protected our location by some spells of which you are familiar, Fawkes will be the only one link that joins us-, and I would prefer that you don't mention this to my brother, nor do I want news from him as you offered. That door was closed a long time ago, I would rather if it stayed that way.

I hope you are well,

Yours truly,

J.S.

She closed it with a small seal she had kept hidden. She opened the window and she noticed the flaming bird near. "Fawkes, take this to Albus" She said giving a small caress to the bird. The bird seemed to have nodded, it flew away from the window and it disappeared in a ball of fire.


I would like to know what you think... please review.
