Buffy and Cordelia sat up against the gym wall, both staring off into space, trying to process what had just happened. Both just stared and waited for the Council to arrive. The doors banged open, in came the Council looking high and mighty, Giles trailed behind.
Johnson! You found the slayer? Travers barked, looking almost eagerly towards the ego boosted watcher.
Yes sir. I believe I have. He gestured towards the girls that were still sitting and starring.
She is the new Slayer? What is her name? Travers demanded.
Cordelia Chase, Giles breathed, he looked astonished.
You know the girl? Trvers asked.
Yes, shes one of Buffy's friends, head cheerleader, grade 11, age 16. Why didnt I see it! All the signs were there. Hightened perception of events, stubborn, advanced physical capabilities. It was all there! Giles ranted (A.N. i dont know if those are real signs of being a slayer. i just picked some of cordys qualities)
So your a slayer? Buffy asked being the first one to recover from the shock.
Well it seems that way, Codelia replied absent mindedly, while nodding her head.
Miss Chase, if you would do so kindly as to oblidge, we would like to test you further, Cordelia could practically see a glint in his eyes at the thought of putting her through rigious training tests.
She glared at him then thought otherwise oh hell I'll do it. I guess i could use the workout. And the get out of class free card. Sure why not? I'm a Slayer, She pulled herself off the floor gracefully, then turned to Buffy, No matter how many times I saw that it still sounds weird.
Buffy placed a hand on her shoulder, Don't worry youll get used to it. Either that or some watcher'll pound it into your head. She gave Cordy a light squeeze that would've been hard to anyone without super strength. Then she jogged across the gym to the locker room, shaking her head as she went. I cant believe it, she's a Slayer. That ran through Buffy's head all while she dressed.

Cordelia turned to the group of watchers staring at her. She tapped her foot on the ground, Well what are you waiting for? I'm not going to test myself.
Travers commanded, like a master to a dog.
Yes sir?'
Get suited up in the padding suit. We're going to see just what kind of a Slayer we have here. Johnson scurried off like a good little lackey.
After several minutes the training began, I understand you are a cheerleader. Do you do gymnastics? A watcher came forward. He must have been trained to train Slayers, because everyone auto maticaly assumed he would train her.
I've taken private lessons all my life, I'm really good, Cordelia replied, not seeing where this was all going.
Would you like to demonstrate? The watcher, Fredrick McGunfrey, motioned to the entire gym floor.
Cordelia never refused three things, challenges, shoes, and chances to show off any thing. She smirked, Why of course, She replied with extremely fake pep, I would love to.
She vaulted into an entire routine. Going a back hand spring she gave it a little twist and landed in a perfect straddle split. Cordelia had impressed herself, but it and kept going. Pulling herself into handstand she flipped forward into to several dizzing spirals in the air, before a one handed cart-wheel. She ended with a perfect curtsie, trying to cover the grin that had crept onto her lips. That good enough for
For once the Council had nothing to say.
