Yeppers, its true!!!

Once upon a time, long before Faith signed any contract with the WB, there were two slayers. That's right! Remember first season when Buffy died for a whole minute or so? She was fighting the Master and according to Prophecy, she would die that night, the hellmouth would open and the world would be overun by Hell's creatures. The Prophecy didn't reckon on friends like Xander who took CPR in high school health. He found his beloved Buffy lying face down in that awful pool and administered breath. Buffy was revived and went out to kill the Master.
Well in that one minute when our world was devoid of its Buffy, a new Slayer was born!!! Well, if you want to get technical about it, she wasn't born ...she was summoned. Seems there was this one chick who owns one shirt and lives on a small, superstitious island who's been waiting her whole life for Buffy to die (don't worry though she's nice) so she can get her chance at being The Slayer.

Well her name was Kendra and she was the greatest. The fight scene back when she and Buffy first met was one of the greatest choreographed thing-amijiggers ever!!!

The two slayers teamed up for this whole One episode to ensure that poor Drusilla did not fully regain her powers and Spike could become a cripple. ITS TRUE!!! Inside sources have told me the whole thing was just a feminist sham to give Dru power over Spike (who just happens to be blonde). Well ok, so I made that last part up but that's ok because this is my page...

The truth is that Drusilla needed her sire's blood to revive her dying corpse. Since Angel was her sire, she and Spike showed up the hellmouth, expecting to drain the guy and keep going through immortality. Well they didn't reckon on two slayers, one intent on saving her lover, the other intent on destroying all vamp kind.

Kendra was very straightlaced and direct in the pursuit of her "calling." She was given over to her watcher at a very young age so she could prepare for the day when she would be called. She grew up without people and seemingly without emotions. What she did have was this really wicked accent that I can't place but is really mysterious and exotic. (I recently heard its jamaican but it might just be a buffy-rumor - you know how those things can be).
He doesn't let her watch television, talk to boys or do anything but study. She knows a lot about slayering and her calling though. Buffy once referred to her as the She-Giles because of her knowledge and interest in the inner workings of demonhood. At the time Buffy was kind of jealous that Kendra had a Slayer's Guide and she didn't. My favorite exchange in dialogue between the two was when they had to split in order to save Angel's life but Kendra wanted to check in with Giles first.
