Dawn appeared in a dark hall.  "So this is the Hall of Honour."  She stated.  Dawn passed a few Amazons and Bachae.

"And every name of the ones who died are written on the walls and roof."  Angelus stepped out of the shadows.  "Three miles so many I had known all my life."

"I know." A tear rolled down her cheek.

"So what happens now?"  The old warrior asked sitting on a bench. 

"What is meant to happen." Dawn ran a finger some of the names.  "This place, should not be a forgotten place."

"It isn't not while any of us who remember what as gone before."  He stood.

"The points of fire," Dawn paused.  "Have been used."

"The barrier will soon fail."  He stated.

"That is how it is meant to be."  Dawn nodded to the statue of the Amazon's stood went with Willow.  "Captain Hart survived and had a son.  This son in turn had a daughter."  She turned to Angelus.  "The grand-daughter has accepted the responsibilities of her rite of caste.  The Royal Guard has a Captain once again."

"So it begins again."  He sighed.  "How many have already gone to their deaths?"

"It begins a new." Dawn stood in front of a painting of the City of Fire.  "As always too many.  They'll need you to guide them."  She turned to Angelus.

"I don't know if I can do that any more."  He sat on a seat and looked at a painting of his sisters.  "Do you know what it's like to be unable to make contact with Hermione or Kira?"

"You forget who I'm!"  Dawn became angry.  "I was here in this reality for thousands of it's years.  I've seen loss and sorrow for all those years.  I've watched them both for years.  I've seen their dreams and know of their battles and loss.  I like you, I'm unable to contact them until unless they invoke my power or protection."

"At least they can invoke your power."  Angelus stood.  "Tell me kiddo, what do you recommend."

"First don't call me kiddo."  Dawn sighed.

 Connor Liam or whatever he should call himself looked out on the motel he was going to stay at for the next few days.

"Hello son." A glowing image of Angel appeared.

"Dad." He spoke then remember the what the first could do.  He took up a fighting stance.

"Hello Connor."  Willow appeared next to Angel.  "The First can not appear has two people at once."

"Okay,"  Connor eyed the pair.

"Your nieces are going to need your help."  Angel continued after a minute.

"Okay that make no sense."  He folded his arms.

Faith held her face in her hands.  "Let's go over it again." Giles spoke calmly.

"There is no need." Dawn appeared in a flash of golden light.  "I have remembered."

"Dawn what the . . ." Buffy started and stopped Dawn was a fully grown woman and had an aura of power shining around her.

"I have remembered." Dawn spoke.  "Who I am before I became what you called the key.  Before you start asking questions Willow and Angel have fulfilled their destinies this day." She paused.

"There is a possibility that Spike, Gunn and  Illyria may head this way."  She sat and a chair of energy formed under her.  "I have much work to do," she stated.  "And you don't have a lot of time to prepare." 

"For what?" Andrew asked.

"The third war of the Ring."  Dawn answered.

Connor groaned.  "Let me get this straight.  I had half sisters and brothers."

Willow nodded.

"I got a niece and a great niece."  Angel nodded.

"You want me to protect them."  Connor stated.

"Your great niece is protected and guarded already." Willow spoke.  "Hermione's protections will soon fail."

"How?" The man once called the Destroyer asked.

"While both of us existed in physical form a shield was generated." Willow answered.  "That shield will fail over the next few weeks and the enemy will last see into this reality and all realities that where shielded behind this one."

Dawn summoned a piece of paper and handed it to Giles.  "I need these supplies delivered to this address without questions."

"Why can't you?" Buffy asked.

"Every time I use my powers to generate physical and lasting objects." Dawn stood the chair disappearing behind her.  "It acts like a tuning test signal.  By not using my power in that way, the static shield will last longer.  Give that the signals that this reality generates it amazing that the shield's lasted."

Sauron was feeling pleased the barriers blocking him suddenly weakened.  At last the Queen will be found and dealt with.  A group of goblin men nodded.  Soon his scouts would be arriving in that reality then at last the threat to his power would be gone

Ares god of War, watched invisible to the power of the ring.  "You know we can't interfere, Bro." A goddess spoke.

"Dite," Ares groaned.  "I'm going to watch you know that."

"Yeah whatever," She vanished.  Ares followed.

Voldemort was pleased.  Dumbledore was dead.  Harry Potter will die and soon.

"Marcus! Susan!" Hope called appearing in the Granger's living room.   "It's time."  The demi-goddess spoke as they point weapons at her.  "The barriers starting to collapse."

"It's too soon." Susan responded.

"Yes," Hope sighed.  "We're not ready. Not ready at all."

"Shit!" Marcus sighed.

"I take it she doesn't know the truth yet."  Hope stated

"No." Susan put her weapon away.

"You have the ship still?"  Hope asked, scanning the area for magical signatures and not liking what she could sense coming.

"Yes."  Susan answered.

"Good,"  Hope looked towards a window.  "Go, get Hermione I'll meet you later with friends."
