INT. SUNNYDALE HIGH. DAY
XANDER IS WALKING DOWN THE HALLWAY WHEN HE SPOTS WILLOW. SHE HAS A BOOK IN HER HAND AND IS WALKING FASTER THAN USUAL
XANDER
(CATCHING UP)
Willow!
WILLOW
(SURPRISED) Oh Xander, hey
whats up
XANDER
Nothing, just wondering
what you're doing
carrying a big book and
walking rapidly towards the library
WILLOW
(PAUSES)
Oh.. yeah I have a spell
XANDER
A spell, intriguing.
Our Willow really is becoming
bad ass wicca girl
WILLOW
Not really. But the spell
might be useful, its a transferring
spell
XANDER
To transfer out of the school..
to greener and les deadly pastures
WILLOW
No! Its for Buffy. Just
follow me to the library
XANDER
Yes m'am
THEY WALK TO THE LIBRARY BUT ON THE WAY ARE INTERUPTED BY PRINCIPAL SNYDER
SNYDER
Where is she?
WILLOW
Buffy?
SNYDER
Don't play dumb Rosenberg
you know who I mean
XANDER
Shes sick sir
SNYDER
Sick? If I believed every
delinquent taking days off
due to sickness I'd be as
stupid as you Harris.
XANDER
Well thank you for that
slice of school spirit
but Buffy really is sick
and we really have to go
SNYDER
Hold it right there.
Come to my office later and pick
up some work for her to do
WILLOW
But the SATs have finished
We're graduating within the month
SNYDER
I don't care when you graduate
Miss Summers should be keeping
busy because otherwise she could be
out dealing drugs.
XANDER
Buffy doesn't deal..
SNYDER
I'm quite fed up with
what Miss Summers doesn't do.
She doesn't commit murder, she doesn't
cause trouble, she doe..
WILLOW
(INTERUPTING)
OK Principal Snyder we'll pick
up her homework
SNYDER
Good..
(POINTING AT XANDER)
And tidy yourself up Harris
Your an embarassment to
those who dress themselves
SNYDER WALKS OFF WITH A SMIRK ON HIS FACE
XANDER
(ANGRY) What I wouldn't give
to just kick his ass for a whole day
WILLOW
Come on Xander, library remember
XANDER
Fine
(CALLING OUT) But when graduation
comes, don't expect me to save you
THE CAMERA FOLLOWS XANDER AND WILLOW AS THEY ENTER THE LIBRARY. GILES IS SITTING DOWN CONSULTING SOME BOOKS
XANDER
Giles! Good news.
Willow has some spell thing
GILES
Really? A spell? what does it do
WILLOW
(LAYS DOWN THE BOOK)
Well according to this, we can temporarily
transfer the slayers power into
another vessel, so while she is sick
one of us could be the slayer
GILES
Interesting, but this is quite powerful
magic, do you think you can
handle this?
WILLOW
Sure I can, it doesn't sound too
hard. Besides we need someone
who can hurt vampires out at night
XANDER
Not just
Meals with stakes
GILES
What does the spell require
WILLOW
Well I have most of these
ingerdients, but we need 6 people
to do the spell at least
GILES
Well then what
WILLOW
Then we sit around Buffy
and chant among other things
and it should go straight to the vessel
XANDER
And whose gonna be this vessel
WILLOW
Well i was thinking.. Giles
GILES
yes... WHAT!
WILLOW
Well you know most about
vampires and we have other
duties, and with a slayer and
watcher combined thats
someone you don't wanna mess with
XANDER
The Watcherslayer, looks you up
and puts you down...
GILES
Like the catchphrase.. but the
idea is prepostetrous
what about Angel
WILLOW
Well he was my first choice
but, apparently you can't make
a vampire, the vampire slayer
so the I thought of you
GILES
Tablescraps...
WILLOW
(IGNORING GILES' COMMENT)
So I figured we'd get Oz and
Cordelia in here at lunchtime and tell
them about it. Then tell Angel. That
makes six.
GILES
Well if you think it will work
I guess I can't be against it
XANDER
Settled. Giles is the slayer
WILLOW
Lets go find Oz and Cordy
XANDER AND WILLOW LEAVE.
CAMERA: GILES
GILES
(TO HIMSELF)
Looks em up and puts
em down.... I would be a good slayer
CUT TO:
INT. UNDERGROUND CAVE. DAY
A LARGE GROUP OF VAMPIRES AND DEMONS ARE GATHERED AROUND WHEN ONE TAKES CENTRE AND BEGINS TO TALK
VAMPIRE
Greetings friends!
CHEERING ALL ROUND
VAMPIRE
I suppose you know
why you're all here
With this asscencion coming
up its never been a better time to
be one of us.. My friends the hellmouth
is calling, and on the day of
asscencion we will be there
to witness the grand reopening
The start of a new era
The death of the slayer
CHEERS ALL ROUND AGAIN
Which is why we must get
to work right away, we must
gather as many as we can for
sacrifice so it will open for the
asscending one, and of course
so we can have one of the greatest
meals in vampire and demon history
THE CROWD CHEERS ONCE MORE
So let us hit the streets!!!
FADE OUT.

INT. SUNNYDALE HIGH. DAY
CORDELIA IS SITTING WITH TWO CORDETTES. XANDER APPROACHES
XANDER
Cordelia?
CORDELIA
Well look who it is
The school janitor...
oh wait Xander its you
I didn't recognise you in
those rags. But maybe you'll be
a school janitor in the future
and then you can wear them everyday
XANDER
And good day to you,
look we need some help
could you come to the library
everyone else is there
CORDELIA
What now?
XANDER
Well, yeah
CORDELIA
(ANNOYED) Fine...
but I was in the middle
of something interesting
XANDER
I'm sure the discussion about
which of you is the bigger jailbait
can wait
THE CORDETTES LOOK OFFENDED. XANDER DOESN'T BAT AN EYELID
XANDER
Come on
CORDELIA
OK, I'm coming
THEY WALK AWAY TOGETHER IN THE DIRECTION OF THE LIBRARY
CORDELIA
So whats this all about,
Buffys illness
XANDER
Yeah, Willow found
a spell that transfers
Buff's powers into a vessel
CORDELIA
Oh, am I the vessel?
XANDER
What? No of course not
Giles is the vessel, why would we let you
be the vessel
CORDELIA
Because, I'm a hevily attractive
young woman and always
have a snappy comeback
XANDER
Attractiveness? Thats
why you think slayers
are formidable
CORDELIA
Well they turn you on
XANDER
Cor, pretty much everything
turns me on. Don't you remember when
we dated.
Besides, I'd make a better
slayer than you
CORDELIA
As if..
THEY CONTINUE TO ARGUE ABOUT WHO THE BETTER SLAYER WOULD BE
THE CAMERA PANS AROUND TO ANOTHER HALL WHERE OZ AND WILLOW ARE WALKING
OZ
They want Giles to be the slayer
WILLOW
It was kind of a unanimous
decision. Giles knows what
he would be doing
OZ
Still, it would be kinda
cool to see
"Willow" the vampire slayer
WILLOW
You think I could be
a Buffy
OZ
Totally, you're Bufftastic
WILLOW
Wait, you aren't attracted
to Buffy as well are you
OZ
Me, no
WILLOW
Oh, thats good then
Besides you'd make a pretty
sexy slayer yourself
leather pants and stake
OZ
Not really a leather pants guy
WILLOW
Well, you could wear anything
You'd be like, James Bond the slayer
whos a guitarist in a band
THEY CONTINUE TO TALK
THE CAMERA MOVES AND GOES INTO THE LIBRARY
GILES IS IN THERE HOLDING A STAKE AND IS STRIKING A POSE
GILES
I.. am the slayer
HE PUNCHES THE AIR
GILES
I speak in incomprehensible
teen babble and fight demons
at night
HE DOES A KICK AND A STAKE THRUST
WHILE HE DOES THIS XANDER CORDELIA WILLOW AND OZ ENTER. GILES ABRUPTLY STOPS WHAT HE IS DOING
GILES
Oh... hello your back
XANDER
Someones eager to be
the slayer
GILES
Oh, well I was just
practising my martial arts
CORDELIA
And your
incomprehensible teen babble?
GILES
Yes...
WILLOW
(STARTING NEW TOPIC)
So lets talk about the spell
WESLEY ENTERS
WESLEY
Halt...
What is going on here
CORDELIA
Hi Wesley, we were
just
THE GANG SHUSHSES HER
CORDELIA
Jeez whats your problem
We were just preparing a spell
to transfer Buffys powers to
Giles here
WESLEY
Really, why was I not informed
of this
WILLOW
Because...
GILES
Because you're a pillock
WESLEY
(EMBARASSED)
Yes well regardless of your
opionion. I am Buffys watcher which means
if anyone should take Buffys powers
it should be me
CORDELIA
Now theres something I can approve of
WILLOW
Well.. we decided GIles would
be the vessel Wesley
WESLEY
I hardly think Mr Giles is in
any position to be a slayer.
An ex watcher who is past his physical
prime and ..
XANDER
Hey! Giles is the vessel,
no matter how much you
wanna impress teenage girls
we've already decided on it.
We have no use for you
WESLEY
I am Buffys watcher
XANDER
But Buffy calls the shots
round here pal. If you think
she'll make you slayer
you're very stupid for a watcher
WESLEY BLUSHES AND TRIES TO CONCEAL EMBARASSMENT
WILLOW
(TRYING TO KEEP THE TALK GOING)
So its decided...
we'll go straight after
school so we're good for
sunset
FADE OUT

Incatannay, Horusha
A LIGHT COMES FROM BUFFY AND STARTS TO TRAVEL TO GILES. THE GANG START TO SQUIRM AND SUDDENLY ARE OVERCOME BY THE POWERFUL MAGIC. THE LIGHT SPLITS AND KNOCKS THEM ALL INTO BUFFYS WALLS. THIS ENDS THE SPELL AS THEY LOSE THEIR FOCUS
ANGEL
Buffy? Are you hurt
BUFFY
Me.. no I'm good
WILLOW
Soo, did it work
GILES
I don't feel any stronger
Maybe my agility..
HE GOES TO DO A FORWARD FLIP BUT TRIPS AND FALLS OVER
BUFFY
Lets not totally ruin my
room here guys
CORDELIA
So maybe someone
else is the slayer
THEY ALL START LOOKING AT THEMSELVES AND PUNCHING THE AIR
WILLOW
It failed, I don't believe
it... I saw the light come from Buffy
BUFFY
I better still have my powers if
no one else got them
WILLOW
Do you?
BUFFY
I don't know, this sickness
has made it hard to tell
ANGEL
(TO GILES)Well maybe you need
a nights rest, for effect
GILES
Yes perhaps I do
Well I should probably go home then
XANDER
Sorry Buff me to

SUDDENLY FIVE VAMPIRES POP OUT
VAMPIRES

ANGEL
(TO THE GANG)

VAMPIRES
Vampire with
a soul, quiet your traitorous
blowhole
ONE OF THE VAMPIRES STRIKES ANGEL AND HE FALLS DOWN
ANGEL
OK then, now I'm angry
XANDER
(TO OZ QUIETLY)
Hes like the hulk
don't you think?
BEFORE OZ CAN REPLY TWO VAMPIRES COME AT WILLOW XANDER OZ AND GILES
THE FIRST ONE KNOCKS GILES TO THE FLOOR IN AN INSTANT
WILLOW
(NERVOUS) So, I guess
GIles is definately not the slayer
OZ
Hearing that
THE VAMPIRES COME TOWARDS OZ AND WILLOW BUT XANDER UNEXPECTEDLY JUMPS IN
WILLOW
Xander what are you doing
XANDER
Trust me I have no
idea at all
THE VAMPIRE GOES TO HIT HIM BUT XANDER CATCHES THE PUNCH

jealous about the whole thing
How do you do it Angel?
You think I could brood like you
ANGEL
Just give it time
WILLOW
Its nice how you guys all
come together in time of need
SUDDENLY FIVE VAMPIRES POP OUT
VAMPIRES
We need sacrifices!
ANGEL
(TO THE GANG)
I can handle this
VAMPIRES
Vampire with
a soul, quiet your traitorous
blowhole
ONE OF THE VAMPIRES STRIKES ANGEL AND HE FALLS DOWN
ANGEL
OK then, now I'm angry
XANDER
(TO OZ QUIETLY)
Hes like the hulk
don't you think?
BEFORE OZ CAN REPLY TWO VAMPIRES COME AT WILLOW XANDER OZ AND GILES
THE FIRST ONE KNOCKS GILES TO THE FLOOR IN AN INSTANT
WILLOW
(NERVOUS) So, I guess
GIles is definately not the slayer
OZ
Hearing that
THE VAMPIRES COME TOWARDS OZ AND WILLOW BUT XANDER UNEXPECTEDLY JUMPS IN
WILLOW
Xander what are you doing
XANDER
Trust me I have no
idea at all
THE VAMPIRE GOES TO HIT HIM BUT XANDER CATCHES THE PUNCH
CAMERA: XANDERS FACE LLOKING BEMUSED
HE HITS THE VAMPIRE AND THEN KICKS HIM OVER A GRAVESTONE
ANOTHER COMES AT HIM BUT HE FLIPS OVER IT AND STAKES HIM
XANDER
OK this is weird
VAMPIRE
You must die!!
IT COMES AT XANDER BUT HE STAKES IT BEFORE IT EVEN HITS HIM
WILLOW
Oh my god, the spell
it worked, its Xander
OZ
Huh.. unexpected
XANDER
(TO THE OTHER THREE VAMPS)
Thats right dustbunnies

THE THREE VAMPIRES RUN AWAY
XANDER
Hey come back, I
need to bust my moves on
you guys..
(EXCITED) You think I
should go after them,

OZ

weird coming out of Xanders
mouth?
