In the beginning, there
was the First Slayer. She had no watcher, she had no friends, just the
kill. Several hundred years down the line came Buffy Anne Summers,
vampire slayer by name, vampire slayer by nature. She was living in Los
Angeles and went to Hemery High School, where she was the IT girl. The
cheerleader and the popular girl. She was first called to be a slayer
here in Los Angeles by her first Watcher, Merrick. At first she didn't
want to believe it and wanted to carry on with her every day life. But
it hit her that she was the slayer and that this was her destiny. At
school her new life style plays havoc with her school life and she's no
longer the bell of the school.
She quickly accepts the path she has to lead and fights the new vampire
in town. Unfortunately as things progress on her Watcher, Merrick is
killed and he burns down her high school gym, as their were vampires in
there. This one incident kicks her out of Hemery, so she and her mother
Joyce move to Sunnydale where Buffy tries to start her new life and put
what happened in LA behind her. She wants to not be The Slayer, but this
is the first thing she's reminded of on her first day at Sunnydale High
School. Here the school librarian, Rupert Giles, stumbles across Buffy
knowing she is the slayer and reminds her of her duty. Buffy wants to
hear none of it and so turn her back on her destiny.
But again things start to go wrong, vampires, The Master and much death ensues
and Buffy regains her instinct and the fact that she is The Slayer and
has to be the one to protect the Earth from these fiends. While slaying
she finds a couple of other students at Sunnydale who find out her
secret identity as The Slayer, while she was out saving them. They are
Willow Rosenberg and Xander Harris. They agree to keep Buffy's secret
secret and want to help saving the world. Their base of operations, the
high school library where here they began saving Sunnydale.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer started out as a movie directed by Fran Rubel
Kuzui and starring Kirsty Swanson as Buffy Summers and Donald Sutherland
as her Watcher Merrick. However the film didn't do so well and was
actually a bit of a flop. But Joss Whedon managed to persuade the higher
people to make the create a TV series based in the movie. And he did,
and it's now one of the most successful sci-fi/fantasy tv shows ever
made.
