A/N: A quick thing here, the first chapter was really an introduction to what Dark-Hunters are if you have never read the Dark-Hunter novels. It really was a quick rundown of an entire book series in a few paragraphs, I had hoped that I made everything as clear as possible without ruining the story. Now then this is going to be a slash story. The couple is going to be Harry and Severus, Belladona is Severus’s Squire who is off limits in an sort of sexual way, a Squire’s job is to keep their Dark-Hunter alive during the day and keep them up on current tech and such. I will continue to explore and explain everything as the story moves on. But yes this is going to be a Severus/Harry slash story. Now then prepare for a time jump, just to help keep up on everything. Oh and before I forget:
Katlin Malfoy: you asked about which book in the Dark-Hunter series I am going after. Basically I’m basing this story between Acheron and One Silent Night, so the Daimons have not figured out their little secret (I don’t want to spoil it for those who have never read the books), but Acheron, Kyrian, Talon, Sin, Wulf, all of them have found their wives and the numbers of the Dark-Hunters have dwindled down to a handful. So basically anything that was written after Acheron has not happened yet. Hope that clears it up for you lovely, glad that you are so enthusiastic about Dark-HunterxHP cross over!

~~London, England 2009~~
Severus snarled as he felt something knock into him in the Alley, sending him sprawling. He slowly stood up and turned, his fingers tight around his wand, “taking a man from behind, how utterly juvenile.” He snarled at the blonde man in front of him. He folded an arm over his chest, keeping his wand out and ready and arched an eyebrow. “Only one of you? How disappointing, and here I was hoping for a challenge.”
“I am more than enough of a match for you you bloody Dark-Hunter.” The man charged at him and Severus sighed.
“Sectumsempra.” He flicked his wand and smirked as he watched as his curse hit the Daimon in the chest and the blonde demon before him burst into a shower of gold dust. “For being soul stealing monsters, they really are very stupid.” He muttered to himself as he brushed his robes off and checked hit pocket watch. He clicked his tongue in annoyance as he tucked his wand away.
“Very nice, sir.” Belladona’s voice crackled over his headset, making the elder wizard jump.
“Belladona, how many times have I told you to let me know when you start up the radio. Or are you spying on me again?”
He could hear the young woman snort, “oh get your robes out of a twist Bats, I just realized you weren’t home yet and its nearly dawn, do I need to pick you up?”
Severus rolled his eyes at the nickname she created for him. “I am nearly home. You should know that since you track my every movement on your GPS locator program.”
“Alright you caught me Bats, we’ve got Ash here with a few others, looks like something big is happening so we need you here since it seems like this is the territory it’s going to go down in. And there’s also something else you aren’t going to like.”
“Oh do the wonders ever cease?” he muttered as he began walking to the lavish loft he shared with Belladona in one of the more cultured areas of London. He stopped outside of the apartment complex where his home now stood and looked to see the sky starting to lighten from its beautiful inky black color to a darker blue and rapidly continued to lighten. He had been a Dark-Hunter for ten years and found that the life was something he could truly get behind. It was joyful and he was for the most part free. True to her word Artemis never appeared, he was paid a king’s ransom, although he had learned to ward his lab since she seemed to enjoy dropping said payment into his cauldrons when he was working on extremely volatile elements. He was also still able to associate with his fellow wizards, though he rarely made an appearance in the Wizarding World itself, which again did not bother him at all. At first it enraged Acheron to no end, which Severus found was quite amusing to watch the leader of the Dark-Hunters sputter at being so easily dismissed by the surly Potions Master, that was until Severus explained the dynamics of the Wizarding world and how immortality and ageing were treated differently.
“Are you coming up or not Bats?” Belladona’s voice crackled over the radio making Severus’s eye twitch.
“Insufferable brat.” He muttered, a small smile tugging at his lips. He hated to admit it, and never would in the presence of others, but he found the girl charming and endearing. Barely old enough to be considered an adult in the Wizarding World he had paid for her way into the University of London where the tech savvy young woman graduated with high honors in Technological Sciences. He had stood at her graduation, her family long gone and her being an orphan, and he found himself proud in her achievements and he pushed her to look farther into the future. She had also become adept at merging Muggle tech with the Wizarding world. He was proud to say that their flat was probably one of the safest places in all of England, even more so than Hogwarts itself, the magical wards rivaled the school while the technical advances and security system could rival the Tower of London. He keyed in his passcode into the door of their flat and let himself in letting the door shut firmly behind him as the wards were put back up. A small crack had his house elf, Millie, standing beside him.
“Welcome home Master Severus! Millie be taking your cloak for you sir!”
Severus gave a sharp nod as he pulled the cloak from his shoulders and gave it to her, “where is Belladona?”
“Mistress Dona be saying that Master Severus was to be joining her in the parlor, shall Millie be gathering tea and cakes for Master Severus’s guests?”
“That will be fine Millie.”
The elf bowed low as she disappeared and Severus made his way into the spacious parlor where he saw Belladona and Acheron bending over a laptop with three other people. He cleared his throat. “Good evening Acheron, Belladona, or rather Morning.” He said as he sat down in his armchair, his black eyes never leaving the three complete strangers in his home. “Belladona, how did you get three perfect strangers past my wards?” He asked with an arched eyebrow.
“Hey don’t look at me Bats, that was all the bossman here, I was sitting here perfectly content running my schematics and talking with Tad and Otto, just catching up on good old American interests, all the sudden poof and there were four people in here. I tried telling Acheron he can’t just poof in here like that, but you know him.”
Severus snorted, “of course, thank you Acheron, now it seems I have to rework my wards, I do value my safety and privacy you know.”
Acheron smirked, his eyes hidden behind his ever present sunglasses, “now now Severus, no need to get testy with me. Boy you really are a surly bastard this early in the morning aren’t you?”
“only when I come to find my home invaded, my powers slowly being drained, and wanting nothing more than a nice warm shower and to crawl into my bed until I have to check on the monthly brew for St. Mungos.” Severus retorted, hating that he knew that the three beings in the room were other Dark-Hunters and there for taking a toll on his own Dark-Hunter powers.
The Asian looking Dark-Hunter cocked his head to the side, his dark eyes amused. “Tactile Telekinesis, interesting, I have never met another Dark-Hunter with that power.”
Severus arched an eyebrow, “What are you Telepathic?”
The man laughed, “forgive me, I’m Dragon, I sometimes forget myself, I can sense the powers of others.”
Severus stilled as he examined the three men before him, his mind processing. “Dragon, yes I have read about you, as well as heard about you on my last trip to the States, I was visiting with…Ravyn and Susan Kontis, Susan spoke very highly of you and your Dojo, I was also highly impressed with her martial skills even though it is not a skill that is used in my society.” His eyes drifted to the two other men and he examined him thoughtfully. “Hm…you,” he pointed to the Mediterranean looking man, “are Squid right?”
The man blinked rapidly, “sim, but how did you know?” He asked his voice rough, laced with a thick Portuguese accent.
Severus smirked, “I didn’t.”
Squid gaped at him, “there is no way you knew I was Squid, we have never met before.”
“It was process of elimination, everything about you screams pirate. So far there are only three ex Pirate Dark-Hunters, Jean-Luc, but everyone knows him because of the gold loop he holds in his ear.” Severus said holding up a finger, “Rafael Santiago, who hates being compaired to Taye Diggs and is bald with scrollwork tattooing.” Severus’s smirk widened even more as his eyes danced, “so by elimination that leaves you Squid, the Portuguese Pirate who never speaks of his powers. Though given enough time I am fairly certain I can tell what they are.”
Squid curled his lip at the pale man as the last unidentified male roared with laughter. “Boy, he pegged you good mate.”
Severus arched an eyebrow, “and you are Xander St. James…though who you are has been lost to history. You changed the face of Ancient Runes back in the day, we still use your theories for spell crafting, I even created a few of my own deadly spells because of your formulas.”
Xander laughed. “Oh really?”
Severus smirked as he drew his wand out and pointed it at Belladona, “Langlock.”
Belladona growled as her tongue glued to the roof of her mouth and she glared at her Dark-Hunter as Xander got up and walked over to her. He took her face in his hands and opened her mouth examining her. “Fascinating, a beautiful application that keeps from pesky secrets getting out.”
Acheron rolled his eyes, “if you two are quite finished.”
“Finite.” He muttered flicking his wand.
Belladona glared at him, “that was a dick move Bats.” She muttered.
Severus rolled his eyes and smiled as the House Elf levitated in a tray filled with cakes and tea. He settled back with his own cup and looked to Acheron. “Alright, so what is this all about Acheron?”
“Well it seems that we have gotten word of movements within the Daimon ranks…”
“And how would you have an insight into those?” Severus asked before taking a sip of his tea, his mind working as if he were still spying for Dumbledore.
“Ah now Severus, you know how much I value my privacy and secrets. Let’s just say I have a very good insight into what goes on with the Spathi Daimons. As I was saying, word of what you are has gotten around Severus, it seems they were terrified by what you were until they stumbled upon a place called the Leaky Cauldron? It seems some of them were fallowing you or Belladona during one of your trips and they got a little hungry. They found one of your kind.”
Severus felt himself go cold on the inside, his own horror mirrored on the face of Xander. “They fed from a Wizard? And the Prophet was claiming vampires…they were nearly right on the money with that one.”
“How could this have happened?” Xander asked, horrified. “Wizards and Witches have been undetectable to them for thousands of years. Surly they could not have figured it out so fast…unless…Severus…please tell me you do not use your wand while hunting Daimons.”
Severus’s brow furrowed, “of course I do. I am a Wizard and have been using it since I was 11 years old. I was told to use whatever means necessary to take these bastards down, and I am pants at any sort of muggle fighting.”
“It’s true!” Belladona piped up, “he can’t even take me on in a fight and I’m just a human and Dark-Hunters are way stronger than I am.”
Xander turned blazing eyes onto Acheron. “You didn’t think to have him use other means? You allowed a whole other race of people to be in danger! How could you be so careless Ash?!”
“Can someone explain to the rest of us why exactly this is so bad?” Dragon asked rubbing his forehead, “I’m getting a headache trying to decipher all of this.”
Severus sighed, “guess the proverbial cat is out of the bag, Xander and I are Wizards, just different eras of Wizards it seems. Back when Xander was still mortal we were called Sorcerers, but now we have our own society completely separate from the world of non-Wizards, or Muggles. We have our own laws among other things. We can also do magic, not cheap parlor tricks that you can see in that horrid city Las Vegas. Here in London is one of the largest Wizarding hubs in the world, the British Ministry of Magic foresees all issues within the United Kingdom and it also deals with one of three of the largest schools for young Witches and Wizards, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The world of Wizards is generally split between three blood types, Pureblood, Muggleborn, and Half-blood. I myself am a Half-Blood, meaning one of my parents was a Witch or Wizard, in this case it was my mother, and my father was of no magical ancestry so he was a Muggle. Purebloods are much like the Aristocracy, the best of the best, both of their families come from long lines of wizards and so on and so forth, a Muggleborn is a witch or wizard who comes from a home where both parents are muggles but the family seems to have some Wizarding blood in their family at some point and it manifested in the child.”
Xander nodded, “and I was a Muggleborn, my Wizarding blood came from my mothers side when I was able to trace it back. I attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry under the Ravenclaw house when I was 11 years old. We can fill you in more with details when we have more time, as of now we have a big problem.”
Squid ran his fingers through his hair, “Ash, these Wizards…would their blood and souls have the same properties as say a Were-Hunter?”
Acheron smirked, “ding ding ding, we have a winner folks. That’s the real shitty part, it seems that Wizard souls have the same kick as a Were-Hunter and they are more of an easy pickings since Wizards know nothing about Daimons. Sure they know about vampires seeing as those are real, but you can see the problem we have now.”
Severus cursed as he got to his feet, “This is not good.” He muttered as he began to pace, rolling his wand in his fingers. “There might be hope though, they don’t know how to get into Daigon Alley.”
Acheron sighed, “well now that’s not always true…as you all know when a Daimon takes a soul into themselves they gain everything that soul was. So say, they took someone like Ravyn’s soul into them-”
“We’d be fucked.” Belladona muttered.
“Yes, now imagin if they got Severus’s soul or Xander’s, yes I know bad thing but they are cut of the same cloth so just roll with it.”
Severus snorted, “trust me, if they had gotten the soul of say Voldemort or Dumbledore…then the world would burn.”
Xander and Belladona shuddered while the other three looked confused. “A quick run down, Dumbledore was one of the most powerful Wizards of this time, he was known as the Light Lord, Voldemort was his polar opposite, the Dark Lord.”
Dragon nodded, “ah, I see.”
Acheron rubbed his eyes under his sunglasses, “yes, you see the problem. I have also learned that they have locked onto a new target…and this is the part that I know you will hate Severus.”
“As if any news you could give me would be worse than finding out that Daimons are now on the hunt for Wizards.” The Potion’s Master grumbled.
“Their new target Severus…is Harry James Potter.”
A/N: Now then, I took a few liberties with this, but all of my information reguarding the Dark-Hunters came from the Dark-Hunter companion by Sherrilyn Kenyon, that book has everything! Every known Dark-Hunter, Daimon, Were-Hunter, Squire, and everything else. I chose two obscure Dark-Hunters, Squid and Xander because I could play a little with their powers since their powers are not known, and I’ve always liked Dragon and wanted to toss him in there. Squid was a pirate born in 1594 in Portugal, he also bounces around and goes where Ash sends him pretty much. Xander St. James was born in 1781 in London and is described in the guide that he was a Sorcerer when he took his Act of Vengeance, so I was able to play on that and he’s a graduate of Hogwarts and a Ravenclaw, so Severus has a bit of an ally in the Dark-Hunter world, knowing that he is not the only Wizard. Hope you all enjoyed.
