It’s a test, Buffy. It’s given to the Slayer once she… uh, well, if she reaches her eighteenth birthday. The Slayer is disabled and then entrapped with a vampire foe whom she must defeat in order to pass the test. The vampire you were to face… has escaped. His name is Zackary Kralik. As a mortal, he murdered and tortured more than a dozen women before he was committed to an asylum for the criminally insane. When a vamp… You bastard. All this time, you saw what it was doing to me. All this time, and you didn’t say a word! I wanted to. Liar. In matters of tradition and protocol, I must answer to the Council. My role in this… was very specific. I was to administer the injections and to direct you to the old boarding house on Prescott Lane. I can’t… I can’t hear this. Buffy, please. Who are you? How could you do this to me? I am deeply sorry, Buffy, and you have to understand… If you touch me, I’ll kill you. You have to listen to me. Because I’ve told you this, the test is invalidated. You will be safe now, I promise you. Now, whatever I have to do to deal with Kralik… and to win back your trust… You stuck a needle in me. You poisoned me!
I’m good for this company. I’m good for us. We all vote, we keep control. We don’t, then everything’s over forever. Here’s the thing. I’m like a cog, built to fit only one machine. If you don’t let me do this, it’s the one thing I know how to do.

I remember we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped ‘round my shoulder And I had a feeling that I belonged I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

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 years ago made up that rule. They were powerful men. This woman is more powerful than all of them combined. 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 up. Slayers… every one of us. Make your choice. Are you ready to be strong?
