Summary: After the Mariemaya Uprising the Family Reconstruction Act was put into place. Roughly six months later, one of the former Gundam Pilots finds out he has family out there. In accordance with the new Act, he is placed in the custody of his new family. So together with his boyfriend of a year and his three friends from the wars, he heads off for a new life in San Francisco.
AN: So this is the rewrite of an old fic that I started and decided needed some tweaking to work correctly. Anyway, I hope it makes sense, though some things I will explain as the fic progresses, so please bear with me. On another note, I did fudge up the timeline for Charmed a bit, and shifted around some of the Charmed children as they didn't fit where they were. Anyway, hope ya'll enjoy.

Prologue
Phoebe Halliwell, a third of the famous Charmed Ones, looked up from her laptop as she heard her youngest nephew, Christopher, crying from his room upstairs. Slipping off her reading glasses, she made her way through the old family manor house. She had to do this, as she was the only one home at the moment. Piper, her older sister and Chris' mother, was at the doctor with her first born, Wyatt, and the boys' father, Leo. Paige Matthews, her younger half-sister, was currently at Magic School, doing whatever it was that she did there as the current headmistress.
"It's okay, baby Chris," she cooed as she finally entered the nursery. "Auntie's here."
As she leaned over the crib to console her nephew, her entire body tensed as she was racked with a powerful premonition.
Two young men were up in the attic of Halliwell manor, looking over the family's Book of Shadows. A moment later, the older looking one of the two slammed the Book closed as he stared, wide-eyed at the doorway. The younger one looked confused for a moment before following the other's gaze, and his eyes too widened. The tension was almost palpable within the room. Another moment passed before both boys were looking back down at the Book, where someone else's hand had joined theirs. The triquetra in the middle of the cover glowed a bright gold before fading back.
As soon as the vision faded, Phoebe quickly gathered up the infant and practically ran down the stairs. She grabbed the house phone and quickly dialed an all too familiar number.
~Hello?~ an exasperated voice answered after the third ring.
"Piper!" she was practically bouncing with excitement as she held the phone between her ear and shoulder, all the while rocking her nephew to keep him calm. "I just had a premonition!"
~What?~ her older sister asked in no small amount of confusion. ~But I thought you lost your powers.~
"I know," Phoebe laughed. "But I had one. Maybe Leo can explain it, or maybe they're coming back. But guess what? Wyatt and Chris are going to be part of the next set of Charmed Ones!"

Piper Halliwell looked at the three beings in her hospital room in frightened disbelief. She had just given birth to her third child, a healthy baby boy. She hadn't even gotten to hold him when the entire hospital had frozen and these three appeared.
"What do you want?" her voice quivered slightly due to her exhaustion and fear.
"Piper," the only female of the trio said patiently, "you have to understand. Your son has a destiny apart from you and your family. We have to take him. I'm sorry."
"You won't remember any of this," the shorter of the two males said. "There might be some echoes, but you'll write them off as your other sons."
"You can't make me forget him," she shook her head. "You tried that before with Wyatt. It didn't work. It won't work this time."
"It will," the female interjected. "You don't seem to understand. This is necessary for the greater good. Your son's destiny is beyond any of us. If you try and stop this, you have no idea of the consequences. We are trying to protect you and your family from a lifetime of heartache by not letting you take this boy home."
"Screw the greater good," Piper said through clenched teeth. "We don't need your protection."
"Enough," the female held up her hand. "Piper, this is going to happen. Don't worry, good things will happen to your family in the coming days. Gentlemen, clean this up. I'm going for the boy."
The Cleaners rolled their eyes as the Angel of Destiny left the room.
Ammie: So I know it's really short, but this is where it wanted to stop. Anyway, let me know what you think, and hopefully more will come out in the next few weeks.
