A/n: okay, I decided that Brett isn't going to be in as much as I thought he was! Now onto the story!!!!! NO FLAMES PWEASE!

"Can you believe this place?" Sami asked her best friend who was practically her sister. Ana wasn't her blood relative but she lived with them. A few years ago her messed up family kicked her out and Sami and her mother Debbie had taken her in. Then her messed up family just up and left and haven't been heard from since.

"I know, what kind of name is Sunnydale anyway?" Ana lowered her voice as they entered the library. Sami looked around.

"You know for a library, I'd have thought there'd be more people." Sami whispered.

"Really. I guess we should ask him." Ana pointed to a man in a sweater vest. Who wears a sweater vest in the end of August in California?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Giles looked up as two completely different looking girls enter the newly rebuilt library. One of them had to be his new slayer. He evaluated the two. One was shorter, with slightly larger muscles, and looked Hispanic. She was in a simple jeans and t-shirt outfit. The other was taller, slim, and not as strong in appearance. Her long hair flowed in the breeze and her red, plaid skirt swayed as she walked. She had on a black sweater material tank top over a white blouse with the sleeves rolled. The outfit was toped off with white knee socks and black high-heeled shoes. Giles assumed the shorter one might be the slayer.

"Can I help you?" he asked the two girls.

"Yea, we need books." Ana handed him the list she had. Giles busied himself with getting the right books. He didn't notice Dawn come in and walk to the counter as well.

"There you go." Giles toped off the pile with the last book and Sami handed him her list. He did the same and piled the books on the counter.

"Your names?"

"Ana Martinez."

"Samantha Jones."

Giles stopped a second at the name but continued typing.

"Alright, Samantha can I speak to you after school, alone. Come to the library again." Giles said.

"Why? I can't be in trouble on the first day!" Sami questioned.

"You're not in trouble, I assure you. I just need to speak to you."

"Fine. Whatever." Sami turned and left with Ana at her side. "What was that about?" she whispered.

"No clue." Ana whispered back. And they went through the door.

"Giles, is that her? Is that the new slayer?" Dawn asked excitedly.

"Yes, that is the new one." Giles wiped his glasses on his vest.

"Do you think she'll do well?" Dawnie was so full of questions.

"I don't know. I hope so." Giles answered clearing some books away.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Sami, look at that guy. Hottie alert!" Ana elbowed Sami. Sami turned to look over at a red head across the hall.

"Is it hot in here or is it just…" Sami collided with someone and books went flying. She hurried to pick them up. "Sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going."

"That's okay." A blond boy handed Sami her Spanish book. "I'm Matt."

"Sami, and this is Ana." Sami introduced.

"Hi." Ana half waved.

"Hey. Do you know where room 112 is?" Matt asked.

"No, sorry. We're new here." Sami said. Matt smiled.

"So am I. I moved from Westchester."

"New York? Cool, we're from Michigan." Ana smiled. Sami could see the hottest of Matt also.

"Cool, well I better go figure this out. Catch ya later." Matt walked off. Ana and Sami stared after him.

"Oh, come on we'd better go." Ana said and ran to their first class, which they had together.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Ana, tell mom I'm studying with Mr. Giles, I think his name was. I have no clue what time I'll be home." Sami said as she closed her locker.

"Alright. See ya." Ana called.

"Bye." Sami called to her retreating back. She flung her bag onto her back and made her way to the library, getting lost on the way.

"Sami!" Someone yelled across the hall. She turned to see Matt with a friend.

"Oh hey Matt!" She smiled. Matt and his Italian friend ran next to her.

"What are you doing?" Matt asked.

"I'm meeting with the librarian." Sami answered.

"Why?" The Italian guy asked.

"I don't know actually." She laughed.

"Oh Sami, this is Frankie, he's from New York too."

"Hi!"

"Hey!"

"Well I have to change a book he gave me so let's go." Matt led the rest of the way to the library. Giles looked up at the three.

"I thought you were coming alone?" Giles asked. Sami wasn't sure what to say. She was slightly scared as to why he wanted her alone. What the hell was he going to do? Matt and Frankie walked to the counter and Matt put the book on it.

"You gave me the wrong book." He said and handed Giles his list again. Giles looked at it then at the book.

"Oh here you go." Giles handed him the right book and the list.

"Thanks. See ya later Sami." Matt called.

"For sure." Sami waved and the two boys left. Sami turned to Giles.

"Is this going to take long?" Sami asked impatiently. Giles frowned a little but didn't answer the question.

"What are you waiting for?" Sami asked as another five minutes past. Then another girl came in and answered her question. She walked to the table that Sami and Giles were sitting at.

"Hi! Sorry I'm late." She smiled at Sami who smiled back.

"Well you're here. Samantha, this is Dawn. Dawn this is Samantha. And you can call me Giles." He said mainly to Sami. She was as confused as ever. She wished she was back home at Salem were she would have known people and known what was going on. She crossed her arms and jiggled her foot that was crossed also. She wasn't seeing a point to this.

"Okay, why am I here?" Sami asked growing more and more impatient.

"Well, you're the Slayer." Giles said. Sami's foot stopped jiggling.

"I'm the what?" she asked.

"The slayer, the chosen one to fight the forces of evil, mainly vampires." Giles said. She couldn't help it, she laughed.

"You're joking right? Vampires? Forces of evil?" Sami laughed again.

"This is not a laughing matter." Giles got up and walked behind the counter. A minute later he came back with a very old looking book. "Read this. It should explain the basics of slaying."

Sami looked from the other girl Dawn to Giles and back. They looked so serious. It was quite humorous.

"You mustn't tell anyone about this." Giles said.

"Well then why is she here? Is she a 'slayer' also?" Sami asked sarcastically. Giles opened his mouth but Dawn spoke first.

"I'm a key. Plus my sister's a slayer, Buffy. She's the oldest slayer in history and she's died twice."

"How could she have died twice?" Sami asked. That's just not possible.

"Well the master killed her but Xander brought her back. Then she was consumed by the energy from the portal to the other realms (a/n: I'm not sure if that's what they called it), but Tara and Willow brought her back." Dawn answered again.

"Oh." Sami was still confused.

"I'm your watcher. I'm to train you for battle." Giles said. This was way too much.

"You have the wrong girl. I'm not special or anything. It can't be me." Sami said.

"No it is you, I'm positive it is." Giles said. He went on to explain many more things.

"…And you'll come here to the library after school, everyday for training and patrolling."

"What am I supposed to tell Ana and my mother?" Sami asked.

"Tell them your studying with me and Dawn in the library and they can call the library if they need you."

"Fine."

"Well if you don't have any more questions, you'd better go home. Tomorrow bring workout clothes." Giles said. Sami got up and left with plenty of stuff to think about on the walk home.
