The anguished cry of a blond Slayer echoed through the library and her Watcher was forced from the stacks where he'd been looking for a specific text to peek out at her in disbelief. She did look a little unusual but otherwise he could spot no difference in her. He came out from behind the shelves and descended the stairs to where she was standing and looked down at her, a resigned look on his face. He knew what had to be done even if she didn't like it.
"You are singularly the most able girl I have ever met. You'll get along."
"But…"
"No buts. It's only a couple of hours."
She smoothed the formal dress over her frame and look at him with a very pouty expression. "Yeah…with Cordelia."
