So you can tell who are supposed to be the main characters, here is a chart. Think of it as the opening credits.
Colleen The new slayer and Dawn's teammate Jordan New kid in Sunnydale who receives premonitions Dawn Buffy's little sister and now on the basketball team Aaron Dawn's friend who works at the Magic Box
****
Jordan, Dawn, and Aaron all stood behind Colleen as they watched the half dozen vampires edge closer and closer to them.
"Does anyone have a plan?" Colleen asked.
"You're the one with super powers," Jordan said, "Shouldn't you have a plan?"
"Here's a plan," Aaron said, "Let's run."
"Good plan," Colleen said. "On three.three!" With that all four of them began to run for their lives, but they quickly realized that the vampires were too fast for them.
"Get to the shed!" Dawn shouted as she spotted an old shed in front of them. They ran as fast as they could but the vampires were going to catch up. Colleen, trying to give her friends some more time, turned around kicked the vampire who was right behind her, sending him flying back into two more vampires behind him. She broke off the sign from the stake just in time to sink it into the chest of another vampire who had just come up on her. The other two then came after her, and Colleen wasn't a match for two on one. She tried her best but it was obvious that she wasn't going to last very long. She was about to be punched in the back by one of the vampires when he suddenly exploded into dust. This gave Colleen the opportunity to dust the other vampire. She turned around to see Aaron standing there with the broken handle of a shovel.
"Let's go!" Aaron said as the three vampires that had fallen were getting back to their feet. Colleen and Aaron dove into the shed as Jordan and Dawn slammed the door shut and barricaded it. Everyone took a step back and watched as the door was being pounded on.
"This isn't going to hold out for very long," Jordan pointed out.
"What are we going to do?" Colleen asked.
Dawn and Aaron began trying to break off various wooden tools into useable stakes. Once they had a half dozen they passed them out, giving the most to Colleen.
"Just make sure you hit the heart," Dawn warned. "It won't work unless you hit the heart." Surprisingly, no one really argued. Dawn had known about vampires since she was eleven years old. Aaron had a whole summer to adjust to the knowledge. Dawn assumed that Colleen and Jordan would have a little bit of a hard time adjusting, but for some reason they seemed fine with it. There were so many questions that needed to be answered, but there was no time for it right now.
"This will help too," Aaron said as he handed a cross that he made by tying to pieces of wood together to Jordan.
Just then the door suddenly gave way and the vampires charged in. Aaron tried to help Colleen take on two at one time while Dawn and Jordan worked on the other one. The fight wasn't going that well, even though Colleen managed to dust the first vamp in a few minutes. It really took a turn for the worse when three more vamps entered the shed just as Dawn and Jordan managed to dust their vamp.
Colleen's second vamp managed to punch Aaron so hard that it sent him flying into the other side of the shed. Colleen was left fighting two vampires by herself, while Jordan and Dawn tried to hide behind their crosses from the other two vampires. Colleen managed to get another vampire dusted, but not before she got kicked hard in the jaw by the other vampire. Jordan's cross was the first to be disarmed and he quickly found himself curled over lying against the wall of the shed with blood dripping from his mouth. Dawn was pinned up by one of the vampires, who prepared to bite her.
"Dawn!" Colleen yelled as she tried to get to her friend, but two vampires blocked her way. As the vampires fangs got closer and closer to Dawn's neck, the panic in Dawn's mind stopped her from evening noticing the strange new player who entered the arena.
She was wearing a white wife beater with black leather pants and black boots. Her skin was gold, and her hair was also very bright gold. Her eyes, in contrast to her gold appearance, were bright blue. She grabbed the vampire as he was just about to bite into Dawn and threw him off of her. The gold skinned woman then picked up a stake that was on the ground by her foot, picked it up, and stabbed it hard through the vampire's chest.
Meanwhile, Colleen was fighting against the last two vampires. She noticed the gold skinned woman but didn't really have a chance to process this new information. The other woman joined in on Colleen's fight, and to Colleen's astonishment she was incredibly strong. She was able to lift her vampire over her head and threw her into the vampire Colleen was fighting. Colleen took this opportunity to stake the two vampires, and when she looked up the woman was gone just as quickly as she appeared.
"OK," Colleen said to her friends, "What is going on?"
*****
"Are you sure we should be doing this?" Jordan asked as they were standing outside the back door to the Magic Box.
"Yeah it's fine," Dawn reassured him. "This is Anya's store. She's my, um, guardian I guess. And besides, Aaron works here. He has a key."
The four friends walked into the back of the shop and Aaron hit a light that he was hoping wouldn't be seen from the street. Everyone sat around a circular table, but no one really knew what to say.
"So is someone going to explain to me what happened tonight?" Colleen asked.
"Well," Aaron began, "First of all, as you probably guessed, vampires are real." Colleen just stared at him as if to say 'duh.' "Second of all, you apparently are a slayer."
"Slayer?" Colleen asked.
"The Chosen One," Dawn explained. "She in all the world who has the strength and the power to fight the vampires and the demons." There was a pause. "My sister was a slayer."
"Whenever a slayer dies," Aaron filled in the blank, "another slayer is called to take her place. I guess you're taking Dawn's sister's place. Although it's been a couple months." Aaron felt bad saying this because he knew that Dawn really didn't like to talk about her sister's death, even though he knew that she thought about it a lot.
"So I guess the real question here is what your story is," Dawn said to Jordan, trying not to think about Buffy.
"My story?" Jordan repeated. "Well, I don't know how to explain. I mean, I guess this has been going on for a long time, as long as I can remember at least. I've always been able to like hear people talking even when they weren't. And like I will just like know when something is going on, even though I shouldn't. And like sometimes, I'll be thinking that the remote is just so far away, and then the next thing I know it's right there.
I don't know.it just seems like all this stuff has just gotten like more intense sine I moved here. Like all today I was having these weird premonitions of what just happened out there, but these were a lot different from other premonitions I've had. These were like full out experiences that I could see. They were visions."
Just then, Jordan's eyes went into a kind of trance. It was like his body was there, but his mind had just gone somewhere else. The next moment, his eyes went completely white, and he seemed to come back. Only now it seemed like it was Jordan's body, but it wasn't Jordan inside.
"What's going on?" Colleen asked.
"Who are you?" was Aaron's slightly more accurate question. Jordan smiled at him.
"Clever boy," a voice that was slightly different from Jordan's said to Aaron. "I am the herald of The Powers That Be and I am here to deliver you a message through this avatar.
"You, Colleen Danvers, have been called to be the Slayer. However, you will not be like the slayers of old. When The Powers That Be first created the slayer and give her to the Watcher's Council, we never dreamt that she would one day end up in a system as perverted at the current incarnation of the Watcher's Council. That is why we have decided to create a new kind of slayer. One that won't be of the Watcher's council but instead will have a very specific purpose."
"And what is that?" Colleen asked.
"You are to guard the Hellmouth as your predecessor had," the herald continued. "Buffy Summers was a warrior of the people, and she went above and beyond her call of duty. Even when the slayer line passed through her, she continued to fight. That is why we have chosen to continue her legacy through you."
"But if she doesn't have a Watcher, how are we going to know what to do?" Dawn asked.
The herald smiled at Dawn through Jordan's body. "You have learned a lot from your sister. I have been instructed to let you know that both your sister and your mother are in a better place, and that they both love you."
Dawn didn't know how to react to this information, and the herald wasn't really looking for a response.
"You will be instructed in courses of action," the herald continued. "We will be able to assist you through Jordan. Because of his demonic ancestry, Jordan has been chosen to receive The Visions. These visions will alert you of situations that will require your assistance."
"Demonic ancestry?" Aaron questioned.
"It is actually the most common type of demonic ancestry among humans," the herald explained. "One of Jordan's distant ancestors was a Gelaro demon. This ancestry was dormant through out Jordan's family except for him. It allows him certain psychic abilities. It also conditions him to be able to house the visions, as a normal human cannot.
"Beyond the visions, we will also be able to assist you by contacting you directly, as we are doing now. Rest assured though that these situations will not be a common occurrence."
"But why now?" Dawn asked. "Buffy has been gone for months. Why did you just now decide to call another slayer?"
"Because," the herald told them, "there is a new threat coming to Sunnydale who will try to open the Hellmouth, and thereby end the world."
With that, Jordan's eyes returned to normal. Within a few seconds, Jordan got a very confused look upon his face.
"Damnit," Aaron said, "I didn't get a chance to ask about that gold chick."
"That gold chick?" Dawn questioned answers choice of words.
"Hellmouth?" Colleen asked.
"Did I just miss something?" Jordan wondered.
