    Buffy saves Pike from a group of vampires, and Pike in turn saves her from Lothos, but not before her watcher is killed.

Publisher’s description

Merrick begins training Buffy as a Slayer. But Lothos is already making steady progress in building an army of followers, and Lothos knows that the sooner he can find the new Slayer, the easier she'll be to kill. When Lothos sees Buffy for the first time, Merrick has to take drastic action to make sure Lothos doesn't learn her name or anything else about her before she's ready to fight him.
