Wickedly awesome chapter! So much happened in it too! Just wow!
I LOVE that Narcissa got thrown over and her horrible Coven disbanded. Yay, go Andromeda and Giles! And well Willow too. Andromeda totally is wonderful :)
I also loved the twist with Faith's ma being somewhat magical-- that she came from Squibs and that she knew all about magic, witches/wizards, house elves, etc... Really brilliant. Poor Faith must be horribly confused with all her 'new' memories though. Very cool that she's the rightful Black Heir. It's very much made of awesome! Bellatrix is going to be sooo pissed when/if she finds out. *grins*
Faith 'getting' Kreacher is just too funny... At least he actually likes her. LoL. And great twist with her ordering him to watch over Sirius and all, too bad it won't keep Sirius from getting killed though :(
The bit with Regulus was excellent as well! I am so happy that there's a chance he's still alive. Yay! I also love how much he adored Faith-- that he truly loved her and tried his best to keep her safe. *hugs*
Anyways, thanks So much for the update! I really enjoyed reading it and I can't wait to read more!!!

Neat. So Narcissa gets arrested, then maybe Lucius if the whole fiasco at the Ministry (prophecies) happens as in canon? Gee, cousin Draco is in for a hard time of it. And Regulus might still be alive. Nice touch! Hm. And, the Council is now a lot stronger than ever before. Instead of having one slayer in their charge they now have dozens of trained ones and a lot more being trained, probably hundreds. Makes the power balance quite a bit different than in the past.

Well, the first 'real' meeting between Faith and Sirius could've gone worse :-) I love Andromeda though, she really is a blessing for Faith-- she seems to understand her better than anyone else, maybe even better than Faith herself. And I have a feeling that they're going to get along great, or at least pretty well.
I wonder what's happening with Regulus? Is he really alive? That would be so awesome if he was... especially for Faith. It would be good for her to have another family member, especially one who *was* there for her in the past.
Loved the foreshadowing with Narcissa. I hope she (and the Coven) gets her/their ass kicked by Giles. *grins*
Amazing chapter... I can't wait to read more! Thanks so much for the update!!!

Very good, only one mistake that stuck out. "The sense of uneasy grew heavy on her nape," it should be "The sense of unease grew heavy on her nape," So is N going to help or is Bel going to interfere?

Poor Narcissa. She's in for a rude shock at that meeting. The new council probably wants nothing to do with her coven, or only if they toss Narc. out of it. The 'new' coven in Devon might accept a wand witch into THEIR ranks, that's about it, I'd think. Regulus still alive? Wow. Especially if it's spell damage from his stealing that horcrux. Kreacher will be real happy. Sirius will find faith likes Regulus more than him, ouch. Yes, Faith wouldn't much like HP ; HP would be scared to death of losing SB to Faith... If they ever met & talked they might realize they had a lot in common. Wow, what a messed up family! Neat. Hm, codicils. So Faith might be the current heir, not Sirius. Ouchie. So she could theoretically toss the Order out of 12 Grimmauld Place, maybe? Or (interesting thought) -- say "Kreacher!" and K. would appear to her, not HP or Sirius?

Review of chapter "Dangerous Territory" from LeaFairy
Review:
Oooh, Sirius showed up! I have a feeling Faith's not going to react well to seeing him though. Hopefully she will listen to him and his reasoning and realize that he really does love her... Most likely won't happen though.
I hate Dumbledore for putting Harry before Sirius and Faith, but it's so very him and his manipulative self.
Loved the Faith/Tonks/Andromeda interaction. I think Andromeda will be good for Faith. Kinda like a motherly figure that she really never had..well besides her Watcher.
So Regulus did go and see Faith and even spent time with her. Very interesting.
Anyhoo, this was another amazing chapter! I really can't wait to read more!!
Comments from author:
It's his rebel streak that has him breaking all the rules. Everything is still kind of raw for them, and Faith's been screwed over so many times it's gonna be a hard road for them.
Dumbledore - while being one of the greatest wizards of all time - thinks pretty narrowly on his own goals. Of course, we all know how well that worked for him in canon.
Andromeda really jumped out at me during this series - and I'm definately going to have to write her backstory in this verse. She's fierce and protective and Faith's not really had anyone like that in her life in a very long time.
I've got a few tricks up my sleeve for poor Regulus.
Thanks you. Next part should be out in a day or so.

Review of chapter "Dangerous Territory" from Eureka
Review:
Holy Mackerel Batman! Sirius showed up! Hope Faith is not going to turn around a smack him one. At least not till she knows what is going on. More please...
Comments from author:
I've already used the 'Faith slugs real!daddy' in another story, so I'm gonna have to figure out a different kind of reaction. And he almost didn't show up. I fought that for about twenty minutes until I noticed that my silly fingers had already typed him in. Should have some more up soon.
