The Enchanted Ones

A/N: This is totally, totally alternate universe. Piper, Prue and Phoebe grew up knowing about their powers. Paige was still given up at birth, and then found her sisters after Prue died. Leo is the son of two whitelighters so he has whitelighter powers (healing, orbing, etc.) but isn't an actual whitelighter. (kinda like paige but without the witch part). He has lived near the Halliwells his whole life, and he and Piper have been dating since they were 14. All the other differences will come out as the story progresses. ENJOY!!!

Disclaimer: No, sad as it is, I do not own charmed.

It was a rainy evening in late November when Phoebe and Piper sat across from each other at the kitchen table, the Book of Shadows between them. Piper broke the silence. "We have to find them, you know. You read the prophecy; we don't really have a choice. They'll be the strongest of them, stronger even than us maybe. They need to know about their heritage. We need to teach them."

"I know, Piper, I know. But it's not that easy. They've all grown up living completely different lives. We don't know what they've been through, what experiences they've had. They might want to stay with their families."

"Dammit, Phoebe, we are their family!" Piper screamed. Then she looked down at the floor sheepishly. "I'm sorry. I. I shouldn't have yelled."

"It's okay, sweetie, I understand." Phoebe leaned across the table and took Piper's hands in her own. "You miss them, don't you?" Piper nodded, her eyes filling with tears. Phoebe quickly got up and embraced her older sister, gently stroking her hair. "Okay. I guess we're going to find them, then. But we have to tell Paige, she needs to know." She said calmly.

At that moment, Paige walked into the kitchen. "Tell me what?" she asked, looking at her sisters sitting together at the table.

Phoebe eased Piper out of her grasp, and stood up. "You should sit," she said, motioning to a chair at the table. "We need to talk."

Paige sat down at the table next to Piper, and Phoebe took her seat across from her. Piper opened the Book of Shadows and flipped through the pages until she found one with the heading 'The Enchanted Ones', written with great flourish. "Read this," She said.

Paige gave her sisters a questioning look, but proceeded to read it anyway.

"All witches in the generation following that of the Charmed Ones shall be known as the Enchanted Ones. The power of the Enchanted Ones lies in the power of two. Any two Enchanted Ones can work together for the Power of Two; the witches need not be related. Enchanted Ones may also work as solitary practitioners-however, certain vanquishes/spells require the Power of Two. The most powerful Enchanted Ones will be the children of the Charmed Ones-their strength will be a force to be reckoned with."

When she finished reading, Paige looked up. "What are you guys trying to tell me? Are you," she motioned to Piper, "pregnant?"
