�The Chosen Three�, by Faithsguy

Giles: Previously on Buffy the Vampire Slayer

- Camera Shoot to Joyce turning into a demon and talking to Buffy in �Seek�
- Cut to �Restless�: Buffy talking to Tara, her voice is heard: �You think you
know, what you are what�s to come?�
- Fade to Willow fighting Buffy in �Two to Go� and Cut to Faith fighting Buffy
in �Graduation Day Part One�.
- Cut to Buffy saying �When one Slayer dies, another is called.�
- Cut to Giles and Anya arguing from �Grown Up� about when to open the Magic
Box.
- Cue girl from New York being bitten by a vampire.
- The screen shoots to black as Tara�s voice is heard �You�ve only just begun�

No music is played, rooms are very dimly lit, and the scene is very quiet.

Int. Summers House (Living Room)

Buffy walks through the living room, and sees Andrew asleep on the couch. Buffy
removes a blanket and puts it on Andrew. She turns off the lights and walks up
stairs.

Scene Int. Summers House (Bathroom)

Buffy washes her face, wipes it with a cloth. She turns off the water, the
light and exits the bathroom.

Scene Int. Summers House (Hallway upstairs)

Buffy walks down hallway and in front of her bedroom door. She turns the last
light off, the hallway turns to complete darkness. She opens her door to reveal
a desert that looks too familiar.

Scene Ext. Desert during the day.

She slowly walks in as the door disappears and she is fully in the desert, no
door in sight. She walks slowly around the bend of rocks as she hears a
familiar voice. She stands behind the rock and sees Tara talking to someone as
the First Slayer circles Tara.

Tara : You think you know, what you are, what�s to come? You�ve only just
begun.

Buffy flashes back to �Restless� when Tara says that exact phrase to her. Buffy
sees that Tara is talking to a dark haired girl. Buffy turns the rock bend as
Faith stands up and looks her in the face.

Camera cuts to Buffy Face and then to black quickly.

Scene Int. Summers House (Buffy�s bedroom)

Buffy awakes from the dream sitting straight up in bed.

Buffy : Faith?

Shoot to Intro (Nothing New)

Scene Int. Summers House (Kitchen)

Dawn is eating breakfast, a small bowl of cereal, leaning against the sink.
Willow is drinking some coffee and Kennedy is also eating a bowl of cereal
sitting at the table. Andrew enters from living room.

Andrew : I�m going to be late for class, why didn�t anyone wake me up?

Willow : Oh, because you looked so adorable sleeping on the couch....again, for
the third time this week. Andrew, why don�t you stay at your grandmothers
house? She lives down the street. Or better yet, what happened
to living at Xander�s?

Andrew : Well, Spike threatened to bite me, again, and I couldn�t take it
anymore. Plus when the toaster blew up, I kinda got in trouble. And I don�t
live with my grandmother because she smells funny, and she makes me do things.
Things that I would� never do, for anyone.

Dawn : Well you�ve done some pretty bad stuff in the past couple of years. What
does she have you do? Oh, oh, does she like, make you do weird demonic
stuff, is she evil?

Andrew : You could say that, she makes me, uh, rub her feet and stuff.

Kennedy : Andrew, she is paying for your college, the least you could do is -

Kennedy begins to giggle.

Kennedy : Rub her feet.

Enter Giles and Buffy who are conversing.

Buffy : But Giles, she was there� in my dream, in the desert. These dreams are
getting worse and worse.

Willow: Another dream? Was your Mom in it again?

Dawn: Mom, you had a dream about Mom?

Buffy: Yeah, it was no big Dawn. I�m sure you�ve had dreams about Mom too. And
no, this one had Faith in it.

Giles: Buffy, you and Faith are fighting side by side now, you see each other
every day. You�re bound to have a dream in which she appears, its just how the
human mind works.

Buffy : Yeah, okay I get it. If I have one of those dreams where I�m naked in
school and Faith is one of the people in the class laughing at my nakedness,
then yeah I get it� but Giles, this was a Slayer dream, one I�ve
already dreamt!

Willow: So I�m guessing no Mom then?

Giles: It seems that Buffy had a dream last night in which Faith appeared.

Buffy: But that�s just it, she didn�t pop up, I did. It was her dream. She
was there in the desert, and she was talking to -

Buffy looks at Willow.

Willow : Who?

Buffy : (hurriedly) Uh, the First Slayer.

Kennedy : So Faith�s met her too?

Andrew : Cool, its like a slayer society or club!

Kennedy : Andrew, don�t you have a class or something?

Willow : Crap! We�re all gonna be late. Come on Dawn, I�ll take you to school,
you can practice that learners permit. Andrew, we�ll drop you off,
again...

Dawn: Can�t Buffy take me?

Willow : Buffy is off today, remember, training with Faith. Besides, you don�t
want to be later for class.

Dawn : Great, I love the American culture�s outlook on schools. Lets drag kids
out of bed at 6:00 in the morning so that they can sit in boring classes which
don�t really tell them anything about life� I mean, take my History
class for example. Yeah, what�s history have to do with anything? I mean they
always say that history repeats itself, so if it�s doomed to
happen, why learn it in the first place?

Willow, Dawn and Andrew get their stuff and prepare to exit the house.

Dawn: Am I right?

Buffy: (smiling) Who knows Dawn. Just be safe, and don�t drive too fast� and
Willow, don�t let her drive too fast.

Dawn: I�m telling you, doomed to repeat itself.

Buffy puts her head down slightly.

Buffy: Doomed to repeat itself...

Giles: Buffy, I don�t think you should be concerned, but if you are I think you
should go and talk to Faith. After all, you do think it was in her dream.

Buffy : Yeah, we�re supposed to train today anyway. I�ll talk to her later, but
until then I�m Starbucks bound before I get to Faith�s apartment.

Scene Interior Xander�s Apartment

Spike is watching television while Xander is fixing his tie for work.

Xander : You know Spike, its been a few months since you moved in here.

Spike: Yeah?

Xander : So maybe its time, you found a nice crypt all to yourself? Granted you
helped me out a few weeks ago, and yeah, I don�t want you to make you a dust
pile as much as I did before, but this apartment is getting a little small don�t
you think?

Spike: It�s not like I�m not trying, but it�s just hard to find a good piece of
real estate anymore. I got the little nerd of doom out of here for you, what
more do you want? I contribute around here, I tidy up at times. Do you think I
sit home all day and eat bon bons? You are a typical male.

Spike and Xander exchange very odd looks. An uncomfortable feeling comes over
the two.

Xander: I�m gonna go, cause this is getting way too scary.

Spike: Right, and um, and I�ll be out looking.

Xander: Good luck.

Spike: Right then

Xander exits.

Spike: Typical Male? Ugh!

Scene Interior Faiths apartment.

Faith: So what�s up B?

Buffy: Training day, fun huh?

Faith: Yeah, I�ve just been itching for a good ungh!

Buffy: Okay, haven�t we talked about grunting like a thousand times?

Faith: Sorry, it�s just after last Summer, I�ve been dying for some good action.

Buffy: I know what you mean; things have been kinda quiet on the Hellmouth front
huh?

Faith: Yeah

Faith yawns.

Buffy: Tired?

Faith: Yeah, freaky dream last night.

Buffy: You too huh? What was yours about?

Faith: It was weird, that witch was there, Willows old girlfriend, and this
black chick with serious grooming issues, really freaky, and then I saw you.

Buffy: You too huh?

Faith: What?

Buffy: Faith, you saw me in that dream, because I was there.

Faith: Freaky� You�re telling me that the two dreams we had last night were
actually one?

Buffy: I guess I am. It�s not the first time is it?

Faith: No, when I was in the coma� I woke up in my apartment, and you were
there, and I told you about the Mayor. And more, I can�t remember...

Buffy: (solemnly) Little Miss Muffet.

Faith: Counting down from 7-3-0.

Buffy: Dawn. You knew about her, didn�t you?

Faith: I did� but how?

Buffy: I don�t know. I mean, how would we know? We are the first two Slayers to
ever live at the same time that I know of. Except Kendra, and she was alive
only a few months as a Slayer.

Faith : That�s gotta mean something right? I mean, here we are, all 5 by 5, bet
that�s never happened before.

Buffy: I know. Well, we better train; we can talk to Giles later when we�re
done.

Faith : Cool.

Camera shoot to interior Magic Box (Back Room)

Buffy and Faith are training, they are sweaty and tired.

Faith: You�ve still got it B.

Buffy: Never lost it F.

Faith: What�s with this outpouring of sarcasm, isn�t that like my job?

Buffy: Sorry, I just�it�s been a long coupla weeks, and I can�t stop thinking
about these dreams� They�ve got to mean something.

Faith: Relax B, everything�s cool.No ones dead, things have been quiet around
here. Just your average day-old vamps and stuff. Plus, y�know, TWO Slayers on
the job. And who�s got the demonic nastiness to beat the Chosen Two?

Camera shoot to inside a building.

Scene Int. office building. The lights are shooting sparks, its dark, a screams
are heard in the office. Bodies are scattered about, both demon and human. A
demon crawls on the floor to reveal a girl standing in the center of the
massacre. The demon crawls to her feet.

Demon: You ruined it, I know who you are, you�re a slayer...

Girl: You�re close...

The Girl pulls out a dagger and decapitates the demon. A human walks up to her
staggering.

Man: thank you...

The Girl vamps to reveal she is a vampire.

Man : You�re a vampire?

Girl: Even Closer.

The Girl bites the man.

Man: What are you?

Girl: I�m a one of a kind...

The girl drops the man and smiles into the camera.

Commercial Break. Windex makes it shine!!!

Camera shoot to Exterior of the Magic Box. Arguing from Giles and Anya are
heard inside.

Anya: Its mine!

Giles: Calm down!

Anya: I will not calm down, you said you were going to leave it to me!

Giles: Well some things change!

Anya: Well this one isn�t!

A crash is heard.

Camera shoot Int. Magic Box, Anya is standing behind the counter, Giles is
standing infront of the counter.

Giles: Are you mad girl? You just smashed an orb of Thesulah, do you know how
hard it is to get one of these?

Anya: You�ve been using it as a paper weight you idiot!

Giles: You know I liked the Vengance demon Anya better!

Anya: bite me.

Kennedy walks in.

Kennedy: Woah! What�s going on?

Giles: I think Anya is a demon again lets kill her!

Anya: You jerk, the store is mine and you cant have it!

Kennedy: What is the problem!?

Anya: Giles here thinks he is entitled to the store again.

Giles: Only 50%!

Anya: Whatever, he promised me that he was going back to England and that I
could have the store, of course that was when it was charcoal. Now that I�ve
had it rebuilt, he wants to stay!

Giles : That�s not the case, when we defeated the First, I thought it best for
me to stay and carry on my duties as a watcher.

Anya: A watcher! Ha! That�s what you think you are now a watcher!

Kennedy sighs

Kennedy: Whatever, settle it yourselves. Have you seen Buffy or Faith? I�m
late for training day.

Giles: They left when Anya got here, they thought we disturbing them.

Kennedy: (Sarcastically) No...Really? I�m leaving; catch up with you guys
later.

Kennedy Exits. As the door closes we hear more arguing from the inside. And then
a crash.

Anya: You broke it!

Giles: It�s just an ashtray.

Anya: But it was a damn good one.

Camera shoot to nightfall, The Girl who bit the man earlier walks through the
cemetery. She comes upon an old house. She enters, it is filled with vampires.
A vampire stands in front of her, not vamped.

Scene Interior Old House.

Vampire 1: Awww....pretty little girl, must have lost her way.

Girl: Yeah, I did, can you show me the way?

Vampire One Vamps out.

Vampire 1: Poor girl, doesn�t realize, you�re going to die.

Girl: Is that all you have? What a lame ass statement, you might as well say
�hasta lavista baby�

Vampire 1: Your gonna be sorry you said that.

Girl: Make me sorry..

The other vampires stand in awe at the girl.

Vamp 2: You�re a slayer?

Girl: Better than a slayer

The girl vamps

Vamp 3: You�re a vampire

Girl: Better than a vampire

Vamp 2: What are you?

Vamp 4: I know who she is, she�s a vamped slayer.

Vamp 3: A what?

Vamp 4: Old vampire tale, thought it was fake, tells of a slayer who became a
vampire.

Girl: At least someone has some brains around here, so this is how it�s going to
go, I�m the new one in town, the newest edition to Hellmouth city.
Wonderful little town isn�t it?

Vamp 2: you got a name?

Girl: Raven, pretty isn�t it? You know what�s prettier? The scene of a thousand
people, covered in blood, the screams of torment in the background while the
pits of hell rage around them...OOh that makes my blood feel like hot boiling
lava, which is pretty damn good considering the dead factor! Anyway, I�m in
control now, and I�m gonna drive this town into the ground.

Vamp 3: Says who?

Raven: You wanna step up?

Vamp 3: No it�s not that, it�s just, there are two slayers in town already, and
they would be a threat.

Raven: I�ve been well informed of the two slayer bitches in town, that won�t be
a problem, I�ll deal with them.

Vamp 4: So what you�re saying is, you already know?

Raven: We have a winner!! Everything is in alignment; I�ve been informed of
almost everyone the slayer has connections with. I�m gonna wipe them out like a
plague.

Camera shoot to interior of Summers house, it is night and the gang has gathered
for dinner.

Buffy: Where are Anya and Xander? Giles, what�s wrong with your head?

Giles: There were troubles at the shop today.

Faith: Demons?

Kennedy : Oh please, Anya and Giles were fighting about who owns the shop, now
Anya has locked herself in the shop and wont come out, meanwhile Xander has
gone down to the shop to get her out.

Giles: It didn�t happen that way.

Willow: Oh, how did it happen?

Giles: Anya felt that she owned the shop and I was nicely reminding her she
doesn�t, and then all hell broke loose and she threw a jar of dust at my head.
Okay maybe it did happen that way.

Buffy: And Spike? He always comes over on Tuesday.

Dawn: He called, still house hunting, Clem found a nice one on the Upper East
Side.

Buffy: Of the city?

Dawn: Of the cemetery.

Buffy: Oh, well I guess it�s just us.

Faith: So Red, what�s your take on the whole slayer dream thing?

Willow: Not sure I understand everything.

Faith: yeah, like why your ex keeps popping up.

Willow: My ex?

Faith: yeah, Tara ya know, didn�t B tell you?

Buffy: No I didn�t, but I was gonna tell you Will, I swear.

Willow: Why didn�t you?

Buffy: Because, I knew it would upset you, and it was just the spirit guide
version of her, not the real Tara.

Willow: I know, I just wish you would have told me.

Faith: Lets not make an issue out of it you two, lets just keep goin.

Buffy: She�s right, I�m sorry Willow.

Willow: Its okay Buffy, just tell me next time.

Buffy: I will, I�m gonna go get the tea, its in the kitchen.

Buffy Exits

Shoot Interior Kitchen, view from exterior, camera acts as eyes watching through
window.

Raven: She�s skinnier than I imagined, and blonder, wonder where the brunette
is, I bet she�s a spunky as I was. Oh well, lets get started.

Raven takes out a bottle with a handkerchief in it. She lights it and throws it
in the kitchen.

Shoot Interior Summers House (Kitchen)

The bottle breaks the glass and a fire starts on the counter. Buffy backs away
and starts fanning it.

Buffy: What the hell? Faith!

Faith runs in the kitchen followed by Dawn and Giles.

Dawn carriers a fire extinguisher. A voice rings from outside.

Raven: Ha! You call yourself slayers? Where is your instinct? A true slayer
would have seen that coming.

Faith: Who the hell are you?

Raven: Aww, so much you don�t know...but I know all about you. My name is
Raven, but you�ll come to know me as the slayer who took out the Scooby gang.
But it doesn�t matter, because when I�m killing you, you won�t care who I am.
All you�ll care about is how one of your kind could do such a thing to you.

Raven looks at Faith.

Raven: Of Course Faith, you should know all about doing horrible things to your
own kind, lets see, what�s the worst you did? Was it the arrow to the back of
Buffy�s old flame, or was it switching bodies and sleeping with Buffy�s newer
old flame?

Faith: O, your gonna so sorry you said that.

Raven: Or there was my personal favorite, tying Buffy up and thinking you were
torturing her, when really, it was Buffy and Angel torturing you all the way...

Buffy: Faith, don�t listen.

Raven: Yeah, Faith don�t listen, don�t worry, when I�m through with you all,
what Faith and dark haired stutter girl did will seem like strawberry�s and
cream.

Willow: Hey!

Faith: Bitch!

Faith flies over the flames through the window and outside next to Raven.

Faith: Now, was there something you wanted to say to me?

Raven: Yeah, there is.

Begin Fight Scene:
-Raven spin kicks toward Faith.
-Faith ducks and grabs Ravens foot. She flips Raven back.
-Raven does a complete back flip and forward flips into a flying kick into
Faith.
-Faith falls to the ground, rolls back up and throws a right punch.
-Raven blocks and throws a left knocking Faith back.

-BUFFY flips out of the window and onto the ground behind Raven.
-Buffy high kicks Raven into Faith who spin kicks her back.
-Raven falls. Stands and forward flips toward the street.
-Buffy and Faith run toward the street. They look, Raven is gone.

Buffy: What the hell was that?

Faith: She said she was a slayer.

Raven runs down the street, Xander and Anya walk passed Raven who bumps into
him.

Raven: Out of my way cutie

Xander: Huh?

Raven runs down the street and disappears behind a tree.

Anya: New Girl?

Xander: I don�t know who that �

Anya: She�s a demon.

Xander: What? How do you know?

Anya: I don�t, but if she said you were cute, she must be a demon.

Xander: funny.

Cameras shoot back to interior Summers house. (Living Room).

Buffy sits with Dawn while the rest of the gang sits around the room.

Buffy: She said she was a slayer.

Faith: She was strong enough to be.

Dawn: It makes sense.

Giles: How so Dawn?

Anya: Trying to act like a watcher again?

Giles: Bugger off.

Buffy: Enough! Why does it make sense Dawn?

Dawn: Well, you died and no new slayer came, I just assumed that since it was
your second time
dying, no slayer would come, but apparently there is one, and she�s evil.

Faith: She�s right; I mean I came after you died, well after that other girl
died, why didn�t someone come again?

Buffy: I don�t know, and maybe that is it, but she said that she wasn�t that
new.

Xander: Well, Buff, technically she wouldn�t be, I mean you died over two years
ago.

Anya: So naturally she would think that she is an older slayer, considering
their life span and all.

Willow jumps up from an awkward silence.

Willow: of course, slayer quest, if both you and Faith had this same dream the
other night, and both of you can see the same thing in this dream, I can work a
spell to send you both on a slayer like quest. You can ask the First slayer and
the spirit guide version of Tara about her.

Faith: Reds right, this might be the only way we can find out what she is.

Kennedy: or we can just all go kick her ass.

Buffy: Kennedy chill, I think we should try the spell.

Faith: I mean, she knew all of us, all about us, what I did, and what Buffy did,
how can she know so much?

Camera shoots to interior old house in cemetery. Raven is inside talking to
vamps.

Vamp 2: How did you know about them, we watched you from behind the bushes like
you asked, how did you know?

Raven: I know many things about Sunnydale, the people in it and the slayers.

Vamp 3: How?

Vamp 4: You were summoned weren�t you?

Raven: How in the hell do you know so much about me?

Vamp 4: I know all about you, I read up, studied the mythology, I was studying
to be a professor of demonology before I was sired. I know about your
strengths, weakness�, and the prophecy of your death.

Raven looks up to see a rope holding broken metal candelabra on the ceiling.
The rope is strapped to a support on the wall. She looks at the Vamp and
smiles.

Raven: Really Now�

Vamp 4: Oh yeah, your not like other vamps, your stronger, not as easily killed
like other vamps, and I know that you were summoned, otherwise you would have
known nothing of this place. And I know the big ending for you is �

Raven takes out a dagger and quickly slices the rope, the candelabra swings down
and cuts the Vamps head off. He turns to dust.

Vamp 3: What did you do that for?

Raven: He knew too much, I hate that�

****Commercial Break, Hey McDonalds, I want a salad with lots of stuff�just
plain lettuce is never enough�..*****

Cameras shoot to exterior cemetery Spike is walking out of a crypt.

Spike places a hand written �sold� sign on the door. He laughs to himself.

Spike: Well, I fancy it better than the old one, not as big, but a great view.

Spike notices a shadow behind him.

Spike: I doubt you�re out lost in the cemetery love, so why don�t you just tell
me what you want.

Spike turns around to reveal Raven standing behind him.

Raven: So you are Spike.

Spike: Clever guess kitten, unless you�re looking for directions, I�m not
looking for a roommate so why don�t you just move along?

Raven: Aren�t you the least little bit curious to ask who I may be?

Spike: My guess, nothing good.

Raven: Good guess. Have you ever considered going on a game show?

Spike: I�ve always fancied the Price is Right, but I uh - wait a minute, what do
you want?

Raven: Just as you said nothing good.

Raven right punches Spike knocking him back into his crypt door.

Spike stands.

Spike: Christ woman, what is your problem, never seen that type of strength in
anyone but a slayer.

Raven: You�re two for two, care to stand up to the big wheel?

Spike: Great just what this town needs, another crazy slayer.

Spike Vamps and charges toward Raven

Raven flips him over her back and spin kicks him into a headstone, it breaks as
Spike falls.

Spike: Bloody Hell!

Raven: Hey Spike, stick around, all sorts of prizes to be given away in the end.

Raven walks away as Spike staggers to his feet.

Spike: Well, another girl that can kick my ass, bloody wonderful.

Camera shoots back to interior Summers house (Basement).

Willow, Faith, and Buffy are sitting in the basement. Dawn is sitting on the
stairs.

Buffy: Dawny, go upstairs.

Dawn: I want to watch.

Buffy: We need as few people here as possible so that we can do this without
twenty distractions.

Dawn: But Buffy.

Buffy: Dawn, no one else is down here, just go. You should be doing your
homework anyway.

Dawn: Fine.

Dawn exits and slams her foot down on every step until she reaches the door. A
slam of the door is heard.

Faith: That li�l sis of yours, she�s a lot like you B.

Buffy: I don�t think so.

Faith: Yeah, well, lets get on this spell, not to ruin the moment but there is a
celebrity reality show on tonight I don�t want to miss.

Buffy: don�t tell me its that WB show.

Faith: Well yeah�

Buffy: ew, ever since that really cool show went to a different network two or
three years ago, I haven�t watched since.

Willow: Yeah, but its spin-off is still on Wednesday nights at nine.

Faith: we�re still wasting time.

Willow: Fine, okay sit like I told you and place your hands together.

Buffy and Faith sit on the floor, the two sit Indian style directly across from
each other, their knees are touching.

Buffy and faith both raise their hands and their palms touch.

Willow: close your eyes. Good. Here we go.

Willow stand behind the two, she looks down at Buffy and Faith, when she raises
her head, her eyes are black.

Willow: Isis mother of Gods, hear my cry, and from my mouth this spell shall
pry. I am taking to you mine magic plight, take them by thine guiding light.
Summon that primeval force, and spirit guide them on their course. Take down
the barrier and let them seek. I will withstand, for I�m not weak. Into their
dreams can both be heard, let the two seek the third.

A light flashes over Willow, her hair turns completely black. A black cloud
circles around willow, light engulfs the two slayers heads. The light connects
between the two until there is a steady stream of light going between the two
slayers heads.

Buffy: Willow�did it work?

Faith: Red?

Buffy: Willow? Did it work!?

Faith: Buffy, open your eyes.

Buffy opens her eyes and sees nothing but desert. Faith and Buffy stand.

Faith: Its so familiar.

Buffy: Too Familiar, come on.

Faith and Buffy walk around the desert, they see a large rock. They walk
towards it.

Faith: So I still don�t get it, how did the slayer know about us?

A large RAT passes by the two.

Buffy: Well that�s random�

Faith: As far as our dreams go, its not that random�

Buffy: But a rat?

Faith: Could be clue?

Buffy: A rat?

Faith: Whatever, red got us here; least we can do is take note of everything.

The two walk around the rock and see the First slayer circling a cloaked figure.
Tara stands before the figure. This time, the words of advice are not the same.

Tara: They think they know, what they are, what�s to come, they�ve just begun.

Buffy and Faith look at each other.

Buffy: What is it Tara?

Tara: Oh, I�m not really Tara, I was just chosen, to speak for her.

Faith: Let her speak on her own.

Buffy: She can�t �

Tara: She cannot, she will not this is but a vision, a quest.

Tara looks around her; she looks to Buffy and winks.

Tara: Not to give the big ending away, but lighter days have passed you.

Buffy: What?

Tara: Things will be looking grave, as they were when you were against your
will.

Faith: Great, startin in on the cryptic.

Tara: She�s not the good, she�s not the evil, she just is. Her purpose is not
defined, not by man, not by beast.

Buffy: whose isn�t?

The robed figure stands. Ravens voice is heard.

Raven: Mine. I am not of man, not of beast. When they ride, I won�t be sorry,
not in the least.

Faith: Okay, can we stop with the damn rhyming.

Raven: But its so much fun isn�t it?

Buffy: What are you?

Raven: I�m one of you, a slayer, the chosen one.

Faith: After Buffy died?

Raven: Stupid Girl, I�m before that, before much, after much more.

Buffy: you were before me? How?

Raven: I don�t tell, I show.

Raven opens her cloak, she is in full vamp face, the sun beating down causes her
to engulf in flames. She disappears into dust.

Faith: She�s dead?

Tara: No, this is but a vision, a quest. The truth be told, she is not of the
living, not of the dead.

Buffy: Tara what are you talking about?

Faith: This is starting to get freaky, where did the black slayer go?

They look the First slayer is gone.

Tara: Take caution to my warning, the rat is smart, your will was smarter.

Buffy: my will?

Tara: the ride is coming, one if by land, two if by sea, but beware the slayer
makes three.

The ground begins to shake as the sand swallows �The spirit guide as Tara�. The
First slayer appears behind Buffy and Faith. She speaks in a demonic voice.

The First Slayer: They will ride, into hell!

The sky turns black as lighting flies around the slayers.
Camera flashes back to summers basement.

The flashes of light around the two slayers grow extremely bright. The light
flies from the slayers head straight into the clouds about Willow.

Buffy and Faith fly to opposite sides of the basement. Willows hair turns red
again and her eyes normal. She falls to the ground.

The two slayers and Willow come to their feet; the rest of the gang runs down
the stairs.

Xander: What the hell happened, are you okay?

Anya: Great, they blew their heads off

Willow: We�re okay.

Giles: Faith, Buffy, what did you see?

Buffy: So much, yet so little.

Faith: That slayer, she�s

Buffy: A vampire.

Dawn: A vampire slayer, yeah and?

Faith: No, she is a slayer that is a vampire.

Anya: Oh, well that�s not good.

Anya looks to Xander.

Anya: I told you she was a demon.

******Commercial Break: This week on Enterprise that damn Vulcan keeps causing
Problems, just kick her off the damn ship!!! I mean uh-, whatever, on Enterprise
UPN Wednesday********

Camera shoot to Interior Summers house (Dinning Room) The gang sits around the
table talking.

Willow: The sand swallowed her? Is she okay?!?

Faith: Red, it wasn�t the real Tara, it was just a manifestation.

Buffy: She didn�t even talk like Tara.

Giles: She mentioned something about one of by land two if by sea correct?

Faith: Yeah, so what about it?

Giles: Well that is from the story of the midnight ride of Paul Revere�

Dawn: Right! I read about this in school, he rode a horse a midnight.

Buffy: Raven said that �when they ride, I wont be sorry in the least�

Anya: So something�s riding? All I know about riding is when Xander and I were
still having sex, I would -

Giles: Oh please God no.

Anya: Never mind.

Xander: What else did she say?

Faith: Well, there was a rat�

Dawn: A rat?

Buffy: Faith asked about the slayer knowing about us, a rat walked by.

Giles: A rat?

Willow: It was symbol

Dawn: For what?

Willow: I don�t know, you asked and they gave you an answer.

Buffy: All she said was that things are looking grave as they were when we were
against our will. I don�t get it.

Faith: me neither. All I know is, this vamped Slayer, she�s bad news, and her
being here, its more than a coincidence.

Giles: Its fate, there was a prophecy, a lost one, it was only a rumor when I
was employed by the council. It talked a great deal about the �Vampired Slayer�
we all thought it was a typo or a mistake, but now I see, they meant �sired�.

Buffy: How do we fight her Giles, can she die like a regular vamp?

Giles: I don�t know.

Faith: There is only one way to find out, and I�m going, Buffy you coming?

Xander: Buffy you don�t know what this vamp is capable of.

Buffy: I�m going.

Willow: But guys, she�s strong, I mean she kicked both of your asses and then
left.

Faith: I�m still going.

Buffy: Me too.

The door swings open as Buffy and Faith go to exit. Its Andrew.

Andrew: Grandma and I had a fight, I need a place to stay.

Buffy and Faith look back to Xander. He gives a distraught face and then forces
a smile.

Xander: Welcome home buddy.

Andrew: Cool, back in the bachelor pad�

The slayers leave the house.

Camera shoot to cemetery Raven enters an old crypt.

Raven easily opens a tomb. Inside is a scroll. She picks it up.

She unrolls the top part of it. Nothing can be seen from the cameras view.

A crash is heard outside.

Raven: well, I�ll read this later.

She rolls the scroll back up and exits the cemetery.

Camera shoot back to outside of cemetery, Faith and Buffy are fighting Ravens
vamps.

Raven: Well, doesn�t take you two long does it?

Faith: we�re slayers girlfriend.

Buffy: The chosen three I guess.

Raven: Too bad.

Buffy: Raven, we can help each other, oh what the hell, lets fight.

Raven: As you wish.

Begin Fight Scene::

-Raven kicks Buffy into Crypt
-Faith spin kicks Raven, she falls and flips back up.
-Buffy charges from behind from out of the crypt.
-Raven jumps before Buffy reaches her.
-Raven lands on top of the crypt.

Buffy: What the hell?

Faith: How did she do that?

Raven: simple, I�m stronger than you.

Buffy and Faith look at each other. They look back up Raven is gone, she is
standing behind them.

Raven: And smarter.

-Raven jumps and kicks both Buffy and Faith into the crypt.
-The stumble to their feet and run to the door.
-They look Raven is gone.
End Fight Scene:

Buffy: Where did she go?

Faith: She disappeared, again.

The two walk throughout the cemetery.

Camera shoot to another part of cemetery, elapsed time, Buffy and Faith are
walking together.

Faith: hey B,

Buffy: Yeah?

Faith: When you said you�ve been in my dreams, there was this one I kept having
in my dream, the one where you were chasing me while I was in my coma.

Buffy: and then you stabbed me?

Faith: yeah, how did you know?

Buffy: I was there Faith, I felt it, I woke up and my stomach hurt so bad, that
it hurt to stand.

Faith: I don�t understand why we are connected.

Buffy: Everything is connected Faith, it�s just how it is. I don�t think she�s
here, let�s go back to the house.

Faith: Yeah, at least you didn�t have a dream about a cheese man.

Buffy stops dead in her tracks as Faith walks by.

Buffy: Yeah�good thing�

Camera shoot to Summers house, Interior Living room. The gang sits.

Buffy: I�m tired, I�m going to bed.

Buffy walks passed the book shelf.

Faith: If only we had a sign of what is coming.

The bible falls off the book shelf. It is turned to �Revelations�. Buffy picks
it up and puts it back on the shelf.

Buffy: Xander check this shelf out tomorrow, I think it�s tilted.

Xander: Ok Buff.

Buffy walks upstairs and we hear the door slam.

Camera shoot back to Interior of Old house. Raven enters with scroll in hand.

A robed figure meets her in a room.

Raven: I take it you�re the one that summoned me.

Voice: That I am, did you get it?

Raven: That I did.

Camera pan up robed figure to reveal a face. ITS AMY!!

Amy: Good.

Grrrrr�.Arrrghh�..

[> Very cool -- Sgt. Rock, 05:49:18 03/24/03 Mon

Really impressed by the ep.
A couple of things didn't make sense, but it's 5.30am (I've just watched the oscars, I knew Doc was still alive! :P) so they're probably related to sleep deprevation :D

The one thing I'd like to mention is, what's the scroll? If it's the spell to bring about the horsemen then I think it needs to be slightly harder to get than just in a crypt somewhere. It seems a little too... easy. If they were that easy to raise then why has no-one tried it before?
If it's nothing to do with that then ignore me

[> Nice, faithsguy -- anyas_butt_monkey, 12:21:48 03/24/03 Mon

I have a couple of questions....

When "Vamp 4" meets Raven for the first time, he tells her that he thought the myth about a vamped Slayer was fake....and yet, later on, he says he knows everything about her, that he studied her before he was vamped... to me, that doesn't add up. But if you have an explanation...

Also, Amy? I didn't think we were going with Amy? Did I miss something? Coz I thought we agreed, too many bad guys, not enough motive...

But these are minor quibbles. Great job faithsguy!

[> We are going with Amy -- Faithsguy, 13:54:15 03/24/03 Mon

I thought that was decided, that she would be the informant to Raven and then either Raven would kill her or she would kill herself.

Also the scroll, I left that open for any writer to do what they want. It could be an ingrediant in summoning the Horseman, it could be a source of power...whatever the next writer wants to do with it. Thats what we're doing right, setting up the episode for the next writer to actually connect the story in a way.

Also, the studying thing, even though she was a myth he could still study her, I mean demonology, to me its a myth and I love reading on it. Plus when u turn into a vampire, you're bound to start believing things, but when you learn about a slayer, you think "what slayer would allow herself to turn into a vampire" see where I'm going with this?

Anyway, I'm glad u guys liked it!!!

[> Nice episode Faithsguy! -- Linda_Delurked, 12:04:50 03/25/03 Tue

I know this is to be reworked now due to changes being made, but I just wanted to say I like it!

Two minor quibbles - I think the title "Chosen Three" gives the game away too early. If you have another title it means that finding out about Raven is more of a surprise.

Secondly, I don't think anyone should know about what Raven is until she tells them. Having a vamp know about the legend when neither the council nor Giles ever mentioned it (especially when Faith went all bad), isn't a good idea. But Pleeeeeeeeeeease keep the part where she tells them her name and says "pretty isn't it?" because that whole dialogue was just fantastic!
