When she first pulled up to the house, she didn't know what to expect. As she walked up to the door she thought about what they would think about her. Would they think she was a joke? Despite her thoughts, she knocked on the door. A young girl with brown hair answered the door. She slightly resembled June's friend Devon. "You must be Dawn. I'm June LeMorte. I'm here to see Buffy Summers." June said. Since it was light out, Dawn knew that this girl wasn't a vampire, so she let her in.
"BUFFY!" Dawn called. "You have a visitor!"
Sure enough, the blonde heroine herself came down the stairs quickly; but stopped abruptly when she saw the stranger. "Hello." she greeted her. "Buffy, this is June LeMorte. She is here to see you." Dawn said before anyone else could speak. "Oh, nice to meet you, June." Buffy said as she extended her hand for a shake.
This girl looked very unusual. She had short, choppy blue-tipped black hair, she obviously liked leather(but with a femine twist) and she was about Dawn's age. Her eyes were the greenest grey and her skin was as white as snow. She must like glossy red lipstick because her lips were drenched in it; but in a pretty way. What was she doing at their house?
"My Watcher sent me here to meet you. I tried to tell her that it would be awkward.." June said as she shook Buff's hand. "I hope I wasn't interrupting anything."
"No, not at all. I just...didn't expect to meet a new slayer..." Buffy cut off. The only way for a slayer to be called was if the previous one died. That meant that Faith was..."Excuse me, I have to go call someone." Buffy said as she headed toward the kitchen.
Dawn realized it too. Why weren't they told?
"So how long have you been a slayer?" Dawn asked after the awkward silence period.
"About a year now." June replied.
A year! They've had a whole year to be notified and no one told them.
"Do you like it? I mean, I've slayed a few vampires in my time and it's a lot of work." Dawn said.
"It's pretty cool." June replied as she made her way toward the living room. "Do you mind if I sit down?" she asked.
"No, go right ahead."
Dawn and June continued talking on the couch while Buffy talked on the phone. Dawn could tell she was on the phone with Angel because of the tone of her voice. They were laughing about one of Dawn's stories when Buffy interrupted them. "Angel didn't know she died." she said. "He knew she was let out of jail on good behavior; but he hasn't heard from her in over a year."
June didn't know who they were talking about. Was it the previous Slayer? The one whose death led to her calling?
"Shouldn't the council know what happened?" Dawn asked. "They are clueless. All they know is that she is dead." Buffy replied.
"Excuse me, but you wouldn't happen to be talking about another Slayer would you?" June asked.
Buffy and Dawn both looked at June. She had no idea who Faith was. Time to explain.
"So she was insane?" June asked.
"Basically; but we like to use the term 'unstable'." Buffy replied. "So,where are you staying?" Buffy asked to change the subject.
"I don't know...I just got here and haven't settled anywhere." June replied.
"Why don't you stay here?" Dawn suggested.
"Um..sure. I think we might have an extra room...I mean, everyone else lives here. What's another person gonna change?"Buffy said sarcastically. It was partly true.
"She can stay in my room." Dawn quickly implied.
Buffy sighed with relief. "That's great."
"I hope I'm not too much trouble." June said to Dawn as she unpacked her suitcase in Dawn's room. "No, you're just what we needed around here. Can't wait for you to meet the gang."
"The gang?" June asked.
"Yeah, you know, Buffy's friends."
"Do the know she's the Slayer?"
"Yeah, of course. Since day one...er...well, since we moved to Sunnydale."
"None of my friends know." June admitted.
"Why?"
"I couldn't trust them enough. They are into boys and clothes, and who's dating who. They are so superficial, you know? They would probably turn me in to the government for some money or something."
Dawn smiled. Finally, someone who thought just like her.
Buffy and Dawn took June to meet the Gang at the Magic Box the following day. Giles asked a lot of questions while Xander was intrigued with her stories. When Anya noticed this she smacked Xander over the back of the head. It used to be okay for Xander to think about other girls, but that was just out of hand. Willow and Tara asked about June's run-in with an out of control wiccan. She had lost a loved one and went on a rampage killing everyone who was involved in his death. June ended up killing her. It was her first and hopefully only human life.
"She literally sucked all the magic out of a lot of Witchcraft books. She was really powerful. I was lucky that I had that rocket launcher..." June explained. Then Buffy explained about her use for a rocket launcher.
"So I hear you are an ex-demon, Anya." June said. "Well...I don't like to brag; but I did do some damage over the years. I used to be a feared vengeance demon who...took out vengeance on cheating males." Anya said. "But that is all in the past. I am perfectly content with my human nature now. I am also an American, " she rambled on proudly. "Unlike some Brits here." she glanced to Giles. "Oh, buggar off." was his only remark.
After Giles's game of 20 questions, none other than Spike came through the back door. He was accidentally vamped out so June took action. They went at it for a brief period of time because the chip in Spike's head kicked in and June noticed it.
"A chip?" she asked after Buffy explained about the Initiative.
"Yes, he's as helpless as a little puppy." Willow taunted.
"That's not true! I'm still a Big Bad! To demons anyway..." Spike insisted.
June found Spike very intriguing, in a dark kind of way. He was cute and had a killer accent. His hair was cool too.
"Buffy, the sun has set, do you want to show me the cemetery around here?" June asked. She was dying for a good slay. "Cemeteries. With an 'i.e.s.'" Xander informed. "Sunnydale has a very high death rate. We have 12 cemeteries."
"Well, the more the merrier, you know?" June said as she grabbed her jacket. "You comin' Buff?"
Buffy too grabbed her jacket and headed out the door. She thought she'd give the new girl some pointers. Boy was she in for a surprise
-----------------
First of I tried not to tie any of this story in with the series that much because I am just now starting to watch the 6th season and that's when it takes place. Just know that Buffy has been resurrected and is fine.
