Same Slayer, Different Start

June 30th, 1991

Oracle's Chambers

Looking through the viewing globe, the female smiled, looking upon the face of the little girl who was to be the next slayer. "Dear Brother, the newest slayer has been discovered, in a city called Los Angeles." "The current one is still alive. She has just started, and it will be a while before she dies." "While that is so, I feel that the little girl should be prepared. So that when she is called, it won't be such a shock." "What do you suggest we do?" "Call upon Whistler, of course. He would know who would be the best specimen to watch over the new slayer." "Alright, I'll do as you wish." Smirking at her brother, the female continued to watch the events through the viewing globe.

The Next Evening...After Sunset

Just as the oracles had finished dining, Whistler came in, to find them waiting for him. "Ah, Whistler, good. As you know the new slayer has been discovered. She is only 10 years old, but her natural innocence and hidden strength is perfect. The Powers are very pleased." "That's great, but the current slayer, Bridget Casey, is still alive and kicking in Wyoming." "Yes, but eventually, when Bridget dies, Buffy will be the next slayer called." "Buffy? What kind of name is that?" "Her parents chose that name. I however think it is an appropriate name for the next protector of the world." "Fine, fine, I'll go. I'll be back in a while." Watching as Whistler left, the female said, "This is all going to work out fine, I know it." Although he had his doubts, as he always did, the male kept quiet. Whatever was going to happen, was going to happen.
