Slayer
"You're not the one and only chosen anymore. Just gotta live like a person. How's that feel?" -Faith

"I hate this," Buffy began. "I hate being here. I hate that you have to be here. I hate that there's evil and I was chosen to fight it. I wish a whole lot of the time that I wasn't. I know some of you wish I wasn't, either. But this isn't about wishes. It's about choices. I believe we can beat this evil. Not when it comes. Not when its army's ready. Now. Tomorrow morning, I'm opening the seal. I'm going into the Hellmouth and finishing this once and for all. You all are thinking 'What makes this different? What makes us more than a bunch girls being picked off, one by one?' It's true. None of you have the power Faith and I do. So, here's the part where you make a choice. What if you could have that power? Now? In every generation, *one* Slayer is born because a bunch of men who died thousands of year ago made up that rule. They were powerful men," she pointed to her friend Willow, "This woman is more powerful them all of them combined."
As Buffy lowered her arm, Willow smiled at the girls uneasily. Buffy continued, "So, I say we change the rule. I say my power should be our power. Tomorrow, Willow will use the essence of the scythe to change our destiny. From now on, every girl in the world who might be a slayer, will be a slayer. Every girl who could have the power, will have the power. Can stand up, will stand. Slayers....every one of us. Make your choice.......are you ready to be strong?"

*Meanwhile in LA*
Vanessa, Catty, Tianna, Serena, and Jimena were talking as they walked out of one of many cafes. As they just about reached the car, something unbelievably strong went through Jimena. So strong, she almost fell backwards, if it hadn't been for her holding on to the hood of Vanessa's car. The other's rushed to her, helping her stand up straight. All Jimena could say was, "...our power...now..."
"What?" Serena asked her, bewildered.
"What happened?" Catty wondered.
Jimena's eyes were wide with shock. "I wish I knew....."
