Rating. K+
Summary:This is a femslash version of TSC. Meaning, all the girls are presumed to be lesbian. In addition to Faye and Diana being the main focus of this story, there will be other relationships that develop as well.
I started this story very early on, probably around episode 3, but I have added some plot elements from the remaining episodes, but this story is pretty much goes off on its own and there are a few things that will be different from the show itself, but if you just focus on the story it should all make sense in the end.

Chapter 1.
Diana rolled over and smiled as she saw Faye sleeping beside her. She crawled in close to her, leaned over and placed a soft kiss on her cheek and then another, and another, finally moving to her lips, where she kissed her yet again.
Without opening her eyes, Faye pulled Diana on top of her, spun her all the way over onto her back and smiled down at her, "I'll never get tired of waking up next to you."
"I hope not, because I plan on doing this every morning for the rest of our lives." Diana said with a big smile. She pulled Faye in close and kissed her hard and deep, wrapping her arms around her naked body, sliding them down over her round ass, squeezing her ass cheeks as she continued to kiss her passionately.
An annoying cell phone ringtone interrupted their kiss, with Diana being the most annoyed as she realized it was her phone ringing. She leaned over and picked it up from the night stand, sitting up in her bed, "Hello?"
"Hi Diana." Cassie said as she spread butter over her toast, "I hope it's not too early, but I wanted to talk to you about what's been going on lately. You know, with Faye, the storm, Sally and well, everything really. Can we meet somewhere?"
"Um, sure." Diana said, sliding off the bed while mouthing the words, 'it's my dad' to Faye as she ducked into her bathroom. She turned on the water and continued, "Sorry, I just needed a little privacy here. How about we talk at lunch today?"
"Great. I'll see you at lunch then." Cassie said, smiling as she put her cell phone back in her purse.
Diana turned off the tap and walked out of the bathroom, only to run into Faye who had clearly been eavesdropping, "What the hell were you doing?"
"I think a better question is why do you need privacy to talk to Cassie?"
"Okay, I'm sorry, but I know you seem to get upset with her, so I wanted to spare us a scene."
"Oh really? Since when I do I get upset about her?" Faye asked, but kept right on talking, "I like her. She's the key to all our powers, why wouldn't I like her?"
"Let's see, you insulted her in the coffee shop, then set her car on fire and almost killed her, so maybe that's where got the idea."
Faye's smile turned into a cute smirk, "You know I didn't mean for it to get that bad. Now, could you answer the question honestly?"
"I don't know what to tell you." Diana said, wishing she were a better liar, "I just wanted to keep the peace. She wants to talk about what happened last night. I don't even know what to tell her. You know you shouldn't have made that storm happen."
"Oh Diana, would you stop worrying about everything." Faye said with a loud groan, "This is what we've always wanted and now it's here, the chance to be full-fledged witches. Not just amateurs who can do some parlor tricks, we can do anything we want. Doesn't that excite you, because it used to."
"Of course it does, but that doesn't mean I want us to end up like our families, you know, dead." Diana said loudly for maximum effect, "Do you want that? They weren't careful and now they're gone. That's the kind of power we're dealing with now and if we don't control it, we'll end up destroying more than just ourselves. It's not wrong to want to perform the ritual. I hope you're not going to fight me on this."
"I don't want to fight, but why do we have to do it so soon? I'd like to enjoy these powers for a while before we get neutered."
"Did you learn nothing from what happened to me during that storm or what you did to Sally? You couldn't control things. You just don't learn."
Rolling her eyes at another lesson from Diana, Faye was more than ready to tune her out completely, "Yes, I learned that I need more practice, but that's what Cassie is for, that's what all of us are for. I don't need to do things on my own, but I will if you guys won't help me."
"Sometimes I wish Cassie had never shown up." Diana said with a sigh.
Faye put on a mock pout and walked over to Diana, "I'm sorry, but you know this is who I am. You used to like this part of me. When did that change?"
"I still like every part of you, but someone has to be the cautious one and I guess that's me. If that makes me the bad guy, then so be it, but I don't want you hurting yourself or anyone else. That's more important to me than anything. You're more important to me than anything, that and you your safety and I don't think you can control yourself, so I have to help with that."
"Maybe I'm getting a little tired of you always looking over my shoulder like I'm some child."
"Then stop acting like one." Diana snapped.
Growling at Diana, Faye held her tongue, walked over to the dresser, picked up her clothes and walked past Diana into the bathroom without saying another word.
"Faye, would you stop sulking. Faye. Oh, why do you have to be like this?" Diana groaned as she fell back on her bed.
Chance Harbor High School.
Cassie pulled up to her new school, looked around for a familiar face, finally spotting Melissa sitting in her car. She walked over, tapped on the window and smiled as Melissa opened it for her, "Hi there."
Melissa could barely muster a smile, instead nodding as she lifted her head off the steering wheel, "How are you doing after the light show at the docks?"
"Oh, I'm still in once piece, so that's something." Cassie said with an awkward smile, "Well, it sure isn't dull around here, but I don't really know if I like all this witchcraft stuff."
"You'll get used to it." Melissa said, putting her hand over her stomach, "I really should've stayed in bed."
"Yes, you don't look very good."
"I know. I've got the flu or a bad cold, but staying at home is worse than being here."
"It won't be if you make it worse." Cassie said, wincing as Melissa groaned yet again, "Anyway, what's the deal with Faye, is she always this unpredictable?"
A smile appeared on Melissa's face, "Oh yes, that's what makes Faye who she is. She does things her way and doesn't think of the consequences. She's not evil, she's just fearless."
"I get the impression she doesn't like me, did I do something wrong?"
"No, she's like that with everyone to begin with. It takes her a while to open up to new people, but she wants you here, because you make us all more powerful and Faye loves power."
"Well, I guess I should get to class." Cassie said after checking her watch. She leaned into Melissa's car and gave her a sympathetic smile, "You really should go home and get some rest."
"I guess so. Oh, are you for or against this binding ceremony that Diana keeps talking about?" Melissa asked as she pulled out of the parking lot.
"Part of me wants the freedom to do what I want with our powers, but I've seen how dangerous they can be and I think it's best we bind them, otherwise we'll end up blowing up this whole town." Cassie said, stopping to watch as Melissa pulled out of the parking lot and head back home. As she turned to walk towards the school she found her path blocked by Faye.
"I've been looking all over for you." Faye smiled, putting her arm around Cassie and leading her away from the school, "I've got something amazing planned for us today and it doesn't involve sitting on our cute little asses staring at a blackboard all day long."
Cassie pulled away from Faye, "What is wrong with you? We don't even know each other and the last time we met you almost killed Sally and before that you tried to cause a hurricane."
Faye grinned slightly, "Well, I can't really take full responsibility for that, because until you showed up I couldn't have made a drop of water fall. That's why we need to go Miller Canyon today."
"What? What's there?"
"It wouldn't be fun if spoiled the surprise. Oh stop being such a baby." Faye wrapped her arms around Cassie, leaning over her shoulder, all but sniffing her neck, "I'm not going to bite, unless you're really good today, then I might nibble."
"Faye, what are you doing?" Cassie said, turning to see Faye licking her neck.
"Sorry, I have issues with personal space." Faye said with a cute grin, "Anyway, let's go. It's a 90 minute ride, so maybe we should get something to eat before we go."
"I'm not going anywhere with you."
Faye grabbed Cassie by the arm, "Let's not argue. You're going to want to see this. I promise. It's about your father."
Cassie's eyes lit up, "What about him?"
"He did something amazing at the Canyon and I want to show you what they did for him."
"That doesn't sound like something you'd do."
"I'm not evil, okay. I like you. I swear." Faye said, crossing her heart with her fingers, "I'm not really good at making friends, but there's something about you that messes with my head."
"I would never guess anything would mess with you."
Faye smiled, took Cassie by the hand and led her back to her car, "I'm not always a bitch. Right now, I'm feeling incredibly relaxed and excited about today."
Instead of resisting Faye even more, Cassie felt herself give in and willingly followed Faye back to her car.
Diana drove up just as Faye was driving away with Cassie. She slammed on the breaks, but Faye kept on going. She looked at her watch, knew she didn't want to be late and reluctantly parked her car and made her way to class.
Adam and Nick met Diana as she entered the school, taking her with them to the storage room. Once inside, Adam closed the door and looked directly at Diana, "We have a problem. Your father is using magic."
"What? That's crazy." Diana said with an annoyed laugh, "They had their powers stripped from them years ago."
"I don't care, Nick saw him using it. It's time to face the facts, we're not the only ones who have powers."
"My dad is not like that." Diana said, walking past her two friends, refusing to look at either of them. With such a small room, she had nowhere to run, so she turned and faced Nick, "Whatever you saw was a mistake."
"No Diana, it wasn't." Nick said bluntly, annoyed that Diana didn't believe him, "It was Sunday night. I was out late, I couldn't sleep and I was wandering down by the beach and I saw your father talking to some old guy. They were having a rather heated discussion and when the man turned to leave, your father motioned towards him with his hands and the man fell to the ground. He tossed and turned and rolled around, as if he was on fire or something. Minutes later he stopped moving. Your father killed him."
"No way. I'm not listening to this." Diana said, shaking her head violently, "Why are you attacking my father like this? I thought we were friends?"
Adam stepped in between his two friends, "Diana, you saw the news the other night. There was a man found dead on the beach. He's not making it up."
"We only have his word for it and he's a drunk. He's just like your father." Diana said before she could stop herself. She closed her eyes and walked up to Adam, "I didn't mean it like that. I love your dad. He's great. I just mean that Nick does drink a lot and he does drugs, so how can we believe anything he says?"
"Why would he lie about this?" Adam asked, shaking his head at Diana, "What does he have to gain by doing it? He saw your father take out the crystal when he was finished. There shouldn't be any crystal's left, but there is."
"That's not possible." Diana said, "We researched all this. We watched them for over a year. They did nothing like that. If there's one thing we've learned, it's that if you have powers it's impossible not to use them."
"Well, maybe they found the crystal recently." Nick said.
"My father is not a killer. I don't care what you saw." Diana yelled. She shook her head at her two friends, "I really didn't need this today either. I have a big test in algebra and now I'm going to fail, so thank you both very much. Now go to hell."
"Diana wait." Adam said, chasing Diana down the halls, "Would you stop please."
"I'm not discussing this here." Diana snapped. After taking a deep breath, she looked right into Adam's eyes, "Do you believe Nick? Do you really think my father is capable of killing someone? Think very hard before you answer that."
"It's not for me to say. I was just telling you what Nick told me." Adam said, his diplomacy skills surprising even himself, "If it's not true, then let's prove your father is innocent, okay? I want to work with you on this."
"Fine, but I have enough going on right now with Cassie and Faye. Did you know Faye took Cassie somewhere just now? Who knows what's she's going to do with her or to her. Now I have to deal with these horrible lies about my father, if you care about me at all, you'll make sure Nick doesn't tell anyone else about this. Okay?"
"There was no one else to tell. We came to you first."
"No, he went to you first and that's what scares me. I think he hoped you'd go to the police didn't he? He never liked my dad. My dad never liked him, so that's why I have a hard time believing this. Anyway, I need to get to class. I'll catch up with you after school."
Adam nodded and walked back toward Nick, "Well, she's never going to accept this. This might've been a mistake. She's going to tell her dad and then he's going to come after us."
"So, we've got more power than he does now. I would love to meet up with Charles and put his smug, superior ass in place. In fact, I might just go have a visit with him."
"You're not going anywhere." Adam said, grabbing Nick by the arm, "Don't be stupid. There's a reason he survived when everyone else died. He's dangerous, with or without powers, so we're not doing anything unless we have Cassie, Fay and Melissa on our side. I mean it."
"Okay, I can wait, but he is going down." Nick said as he shifted off to class.
