Author's Note: Drabble for the sunday100 challenge. Subject: anything. I chose the West Wing Buffy tribute challenge (using a WW episode title). VERY VAGUE SPOILERS FOR THE SEVENTH SEASON, AND DEFINITE SPOILERS FOR "CHOSEN."

She'd been surprised at how many girls arrived. She hadn't known there were so many Potentials (it was probably in the Handbook).
For their numbers, the prepubescent girls were helpless against the First. It killed one after another, preying on fear and uncertainty.
Only the strongest remained, but they weren't Slayers. With the Scoobies/friends, there were seventeen. Not an army; after Buffy saw the Uber-vamps, she knew they couldn't survive.
They needed more; on the eve of the battle she realized how. With Willow's magic blazing through the ancient scythe, Slayers were awakened worldwide.
Seventeen started the fight; billions finished.
