A/N: This is the sequal to, "The Children Of Light". It is the sixth in my series. I hope you will all like this as much as the first five. There is a list at the bottom of the desrciptions, with the main characters and their powers. Thanks to EVERYONE who reviewed my last story! Chrios: No, no, no, no! lol I'm not a senior, not yet. But yes, they are taking me to Sin City and we will ge to tour The Strip. lol Peanut2lb: Yes! I'm so glad you liked it! And well, technically it wasn't Pearl's first "real" kiss (he only kissed her on the cheek, which she returned with a kiss on the cheek). I'm saving the "real kiss" for another day. (I love having their relationship grow.) And I'm tickled that you commented on the title. I really liked that one. And I'm still working out the kinks on the second baby idea. winter blaze: It will take place a year later. I know it's going at a rather slow pace, but after this story I will most likely jump ahead quite a few years (if everyone still wants to read this story by then). PrUe AnD AnDy: Thanks for commenting and I'm glad that you liked it! I'm still contemplating the baby (I'll have to come up with a good idea on how to introduce her). charmedsisters: Aww, thanks for the review! Susan: I'm glad you liked that. I just couldn't bare to leave Penny out of things. RJF: Yeah, those kidders (literally)! I'm tickled that you liked this chapter and I am still working on the whole "new baby thing." Prince Halliwell: Yeah, that was a typo. Sometimes I like to copy and paste certain things so that I can use them as premonitions or flashbacks later on and sometimes I come up with new ideas and start writing them in advance. Anyway, I musta "pasted" instead of "copied." It's fixed now. aebeck: Yay! You finally got an awesome account! Egh, I dunno about best buds. That Pam, she's one tough cookie. Ah, okay. I suppose I can live without the quotes. Thanks for reviewing! money makes me smile: That line was a bit of a typo (and an unfortunate peak into the future). lol But yeah, I meant the forshadowing about Pearl & Brandon's relationship. C. C. McKenna: Really? Awwww, that makes me feel so proud! Yikes, sorry you had to stay in bed for so long. Hopefully you have a comfy bed! lol I hope you like this chapter too! KAY: Thanks for reviewing! The-Cheese-Fairy: Hey cool! I'm thrilled that you love it! And I'm so happy to hear that you liked 'Will & Grace'! I might be adding something like that to my fanfic. ;) Your friend is a little like Jack? Is your best friend gay? (My best friend is, but he's a bit more like Will. lol) This is a play on, "MX Lives". (If you don't watch "Mutant X", it won't make a whole lot of sense.) I don't claim any rights to the fanfic, "The Lone Charmed One", it is written by RJF (a fellow FFN author). The "alternate characters" (Paige, Wyatt, & Chris) are characters from "Charmed", which rjf2004 has developed and the other "alternate character" (Emma) is a character from the T.V. show "Mutant X", which rjf2004 has also developed in the crossover fic, "The Lone Charmed One". Special thanks to rjf2004 for letting me use these developed characters in my fic, to meet up with Persia, once again! rjf2004, this chapter is dedicated to you!For those the you who haven't read "Charmed At Last", "Family Affair", "Together Forever As One", "The Blessed Ones", and/or "The Children Of Light"; I advise you to do so. Here is a short summary of the five...

"Charmed At Last" - Summary: Piper & Leo are married and have been trying to have children for a while now. Phoebe and Cole are dating but they still haven't figured a way around the whole bounty hunter situation; Cole never became The Source and is still Balthezor. The Source was never vanquished, either. Paige and Glenn are just beginning to date, as in, a serious relationship. Glenn goes away on another trip, when Paige finds out she's pregnant. She tells her sisters and then they are attacked by a demon. That's when their eldest sister, who had supposidly died, comes and saves their lives. The truth that Prue never died is revealed and that Paige's pregnancy has allowed her to return home. They must begin their real destiny, with the, Power of Four. When Glenn returns, Paige tells him that she is pregnant; they soon are married. A few months later Paige gives birth to a beautiful baby girl named, Pearlinda Melody Belland, Pearl for short. In the finale, Piper finds out that she is pregnant. By this time, Pearl is about 6 months old.

"Family Affair" - Summary: This takes place almost 2 years after the finale of "Charmed At Last". Paige's daughter, Pearl, is almost 3-years-old and Piper's daughter, Phiona, is almost 2-years-old. Paige and Glenn are happily married and so are Piper and Leo. The story starts off with Phoebe and Cole's wedding; Phoebe is also about 4 months pregnant with her and Cole's first child. Prue is still single and recieves a 3rd power during this time. The sisters and their husbands go through the traumatic time of yet a 3rd Halliwell pregnancy and soon Phoebe gives birth to a healthy baby girl named, Pamela Victoria Turner, Pam for short. Then the sisters must deal with all the trouble that normal toddlers get into, plus the added effect of magic from two little witch-whitelighter-mortals, while learning how to control a newborn witch-demoness-mortal.

"Together Forever As One" - Summary: This takes place about 1 year after Pam's first birthday. Pearl is now about 5-years-old and in Kindergarten, Phiona is about 4-years-old, & Pam is about 2-years-old. For Piper & Leo, Phoebe & Cole, and Paige & Glenn; things are going smoothly. Considering they have wild little magical children to look after. Prue is still single. The story starts off on Prue's 34th birthday. She is feeling kind of down since each of her sister's has a wonderful little girl and she is yet to have a child, but in the future, she saw that she had a daughter. Then as a surprise for her birthday, The Elders allow Andy Trudeau to return for 24 hours, to spend with Prue. He isn't a ghost/spirit during this 24 hour period, but just as alive as everyone else. Prue and Andy make up for lost time and then sleep together before Andy has to leave again. 1 month after Prue & Andy's night together, Prue finds out she is pregnant, with Andy's child! Now Prue must face going through a magical pregnancy and trying to be a single mom. Sure her sisters, brother-in-laws, and nieces will be there for her but nothing can replace a husband and a father for her child.

"The Blessed Ones" - Summary: This takes place 2 years after Pandora's first birthday. Pearl is 8-years-old, Phiona is 7-years-old, Pam is 5-years-old, & Pandora is 3-years-old. The Halliwell sisters have decided to take their children out of public school, starting this year. Pearl, Phiona, & Pam now go to a small school, taught by, The Star Coven. Not only do they learn what they would normally learn, but they also are taught how to use their powers, the history of magic, and they can interact with magical children their own age. Pearl, Phiona, Pam, and Pandora are the Blessed Ones; the most powerful good witches that exist, as of this time period. But then a young teenage girl shows up at the door of the Halliwell Manor. Everyone finds out that Phoebe had kept not only a secret in New York, but a daughter! The daughter that she and the evil witch James Kline had together, when Phoebe was 19-years-old. Her daughter's name is Persia Patty Halliwell and has the power of electrokinesis; the ability to create and control electricity. She is very powerful. Then Piper discovers some shocking news. She's pregnant again! Her mother, Patty, comes to her and tells her that her unborn child is half of a prophecy, called 'The Children Of Light'. Persia is the other half. Together, both girls rival the Blessed Ones in power. Piper had her and Leo's second daughter and names her Prissandra Leona Wyatt. Little Prissandra has the power of photokinesis; the ability to create and control light. Pearl also gains a new power and a best friend, who could possibly become even more.

"The Children Of Light" - Summary: This takes place about a year after it's prequel. Persia is still trying to find her place in the family, but Pam is not helping matters. She is so jealous of Persia and doesn't understand the situation, believing that Persia is just there to steal her parents. Prue and Pandora are suffering without Andy, so Pandora uses the gift that she got on the day of her Wiccaning, to wish for her father. This surprises The Elders and they aren't sure how to handle such a thing, because it has never happened before. Although it is technically against the rules, Pandora was never told this, so they allow Andy to stay. But that's it; if he dies again, he stays dead. The Elders give the sisters a one time spell to change the memories of everyone in the world, except those who know their secret. Cole's mother, Evilyn, eventually comes into the picture. She kidnaps Pam and attempts to bring out her demon half, by having her kill an innocent witch. The Charmed Ones interfere and Pam is saved. However she's still been infected with the power of The Ingress, a sister power to The Nexus, which Evilyn has under the control of evil. But when Adam, an old lover of Evilyn's, kills her, Pam gains a new power and helps her father vanquish Adam. Phoebe, Cole, Persia, and Pam move into the home that Cole inherit's from his mother's death; The Villa, complete with The Ingress, which is now in the hands of good. Prue, Andy, and Pandora travel to a surprise Family Reunion for Andy's family. Prue turns into a Werewolf and attacks Andy's mother, Vivienne. The remaining sisters come to the rescue, vanquishing the Werewolf that converted Prue, and having Leo dust the family. Sour feelings between Prue and Vivienne, however, remain. In the end, the wedding of a lifetime is about to take place. Unfortunately, an old foe returns, and is after Prue's soul. A backfired spell turns Prue and Andy into elves, protecting them from The Sorceress Of Souls. Good undoubtedly prevails, Prue and Andy are married by Penny, and Brandon works up the courage to give Pearl a kiss on the cheek.

Every Halliwell Counts
Chapter 1: P4 Lives

"Phoebe!" Piper screamed, as she ducked behind a large chair, missing a fireball. She'd been enjoying a nice few moments of 'alone time' and suddenly this very fit, ninja looking creature with fluorescent green scales all over its body shimmered into the room, and started attacking her. This creature was very fast and was evading all of her attacks; even freezing couldn't keep it in place for more than a millisecond. Suddenly the chair that she was ducking behind, exploded. "Phoebe!" Piper screamed, as she slid into the wall and the creature advanced on her. Piper held out her hands, sending an exploding blast at the creature, but the creature slid to the side with amazing speed and the blast ended up exploding a china vase. "Damnit!" Suddenly a fireball was whizzing at her with amazing speed and she knew she was in for it, when suddenly the fireball exploded into nothing more than sparks and flames. Piper's head whipped around to see her eldest niece, standing in the doorway.

"Back!" Persia flamed, as she held out her hands and sent to consecutive bolts at the creature. Apparently it hadn't expected the attack and didn't have time to escape; it flew into the wall and Persia ran to her aunt. "Aunt Piper, are you okay?" She helped her up.

"Yeah and I'm taking care of this thing!" Piper flared, as she raised her hands and attempted to explode the thing. But the creature had caught on this time and it shimmered away, resulting in part of the fireplace exploding. "Damnit!" Her fingers twitched angrily, as dust filled the air, from the fireplace rubble.

"We should look for that thing in the Book." Persia said.

Piper narrowed her eyes. "You're right..." She dusted off her pants. "Where is your mother?"

"I met mom at the store about five minutes ago. Apparently she had Uncle Leo orb her there, so I had him orb me back, and then he went to meet up with mom so they could go shopping with Prissy."

Piper's brow furrowed in frustration. "Okay, fine...Go up to the attic and check with the Book. I'll be there in a minute or so."

"Okay." Persia agreed, as she made her way out of the room.

30 Minutes Later----

"No, I've only found various demons that are 'similar' to the one that attacked you." Persia said. She had marked all the pages. "The Speed Demon, Reptilia Rings, Ninja Warriors, and Pyroclastic Clans."

"And what does each one do, again?"

"'The Speed Demon is a breed that can defy gravity; she can produce speeds so high that some have thought she holds the power of invisibility, but that is false. Many Warren witches with the power of temporal stasis have tried to stop her, but she is so fast that the power is unable to contain her. She must be vanquished with the following spell...'"

Piper nodded. "That sounds like the speed that this ninja thing had."

"'Reptilia Rings are demons of various reptilian lineage. They look and act like reptiles; mostly snakes. Some have venomous attacks that are highly lethal to witches.'"

"Well..." Piper said, glancing over Persia's shoulder. "It looks similar to what attacked me, but the creature in the Book is less 'advanced' so to speak."

"Umm...Okay. 'Ninja Warriors: Demons who have trained in the special Ninja art for many years and bred with other demons who have done the same. Eventually their traits of agility, strength, and cunning were passed down through genes and have developed their descendants into very powerful demons. Flaring is their own active power. Other extreme abilities are come from their genetics; i.e. strength and speed.'"

"Okay, that sounds a little like that thing too. In fact, it had that sleek body." Piper observed.

"And last but not least...'Pyroclastic Clans: These demons were formed from the eruption of Tambora on the island of Sumbawa in Indonesia. Isacc, the biological father of The Source, was attempting to finish off the Warren line. Laura Greenburg and her husband, Hector Greenburg, used a spell to travel to Sumbawa. This caused Isacc to track them there, just like they intended. Once there, Laura used her power of telekinesis to throw Isacc into the Tambora volcano. The force was so powerful, combined with Isacc's magic, that the volcano exploded and would later be recorded as the most powerful eruption in recorded history. Laura and Hector lived through the explosion, due to Hector using his power of deflection, to deflect the volcanic explosion. However, Isacc's magic was so strong that it molded with the pyroclastic material from Tambora's eruption, thus forming the Pyroclastic Clan of demons.'"

"So they aren't actually alive?"

"No, they're more like magical robots, with a mind of their own." Persia replied

Piper scanned the page. "Well, from the looks of it, the powers that the thing used one me were similar to those of the Pyroclastic demon things."

"I think we need everyone else." Persia said, aloud.

"Mhmm." Piper nodded. "Leo!"

Within minutes, Leo orbed in with Prissandra in his arms. "Yes?"

"Witchy emergency. We need Prue, Phoebe, and Paige. Can you go get them?" Piper asked, with more of a demanding tone.

"Uh, sure." Leo gently placed Prissy into Piper's arms.

Prissy giggled and grabbed at Piper's earrings. "Momma!"

"No, no sweetie." Piper cooed, as she diverted the child's hands.

Leo orbed out.

1 Hour Later----

Prue pinched the bridge of her nose. "Oh oh..." She sighed. "It sounds like we've got some kind of hybrid demon on our hands."

"Hybrid demon?" Perisa repeated. "As in, a mutant demon?"

Prue nodded. "That's what it sounds like."

Perisa closed her eyes, remembering an accidental trip to an alternate reality.

----Flashback----

"Now I think it was this and this..." Persia said, as she dropped a handful of brown powder into a steaming pot and then a handful of salt into the same pot. Brown smoke billowed from the pot and when it cleared, a brown goo remained. "And then we take this and and put it in here..." Persia said, as she grabbed a vial of purple liquid. She carefully uncorked the top and poured it into the brown liquid. Suddenly a massive explosion occured and she went flying into the wall, as black smoke covered the air, until that was all that could be seen.

----

Persia opened her eyes and she was laying on the floor of the attic, but it something seemed off about it. She rubbed her head, feeling a little woozy.

Suddenly a man appeared, seemingly out of water; some type of magical trasportation.

"What the..." Persia said, as she hopped to her feet. "Who the hell are you!" She took a few steps back.

"Who are you!" The man cried.

Persia aimed her hand, sending a powerful bolt of energy flying at the strange man, who carefully avoided it. She aimed again and again, the man barely missed her attack.

"Paige! Get up here quick!" The man called, clearly distressed.

Moments later the attic door burst open and Paige walked in. "What the hell!" Paige surveyed the scene, the man just ducked and rolled out of the way of another large blast of electricity from Persia.

"Get the hell out of my house!" Persia shouted. A stray bolt of energy flew past Paige, who had barely enough time divert it, telekinetically.

"Paige! A little help here! Electricity doesn't really agree with me!" The man shouted over the crackle of voltage.

"Uh…right!" Paige waved her arm aggressively, and sent Persia flying into a pile of cardboard boxes that were in the corner.

"Who is she?" The man cautiously approached Persia, who was a little dazed.

"I don't know, but we're gonna find out!" Paige walked over the boxes.

"We! Oh no! I'm not going anywhere near her until her powers are bound or until I'm in a rubber suit!" The man cried, defensively.

"Oh, stop being a baby!" Paige replied.

Persia looked at Paige. "Huh? Aunt Paige? Did you do that to me?"

At the word 'aunt', Paige quickly called for Piper and Leo, who were already halfway there, as they had come to see what all the noise was about.

"Shh! The boys are sleep-ing, who the hell is that?" Piper said, pointing at Persia, in the mountain of cardboard.

"Wait a minute…you guys don't recognise me?" Persia asked, standing up and brushing down her clothes.

"Well, judging how you just tried to kill my boyfriend, I'd say you're a foe!" Paige glared at Persia.

"'Boyfriend'? Aren't you married to…what have I done?'" Persia gasped.

----Flashback----

"Persia, honey, are you all right?" Phoebe asked, as she gently shook her daughter.

Persia looked up at her mother, nodding slightly. "Huh? Oh...yeah...I think..."

Phoebe looked eagerly at her daughter. "You think what, sweetie?"

"I think..." Persia's voice trailed off, as another wave of past images filled her mind.

----Flashback----

"'A Child Of Light'?" A woman, Emma DeLauro, asked. "What's that?"

"A very powerful magical being who is destined for a special greatness. My youngest cousin, Prissandra, and I are The Children Of Light. We're just as powerful as my other three cousins and half sister, who are known as The Blessed Ones." Persia explained. "What are you?"

"I'm what a they call a 'Mutant Witch'." Emma explained. She took about 10 minutes to explain the short version of the genetics program that the government had secretly set up.

"So, you're a mutated magical being?" Persia asked.

Emma nodded.

----Flashback----

"Persia!" Phoebe yelled, pulling her daughter back to reality. "What's wrong!"

"I think I have an idea, but we're gonna need some help." Persia replied.

The Charmed Ones exchanged looks.

Persia stood up and headed towards the attic.

Everyone else followed her.


Persia stared at the wall of the attic, as everyone crowded around, watching from afar. She took a deep breath and then began the spell that she had memorized a long while ago; the spell that had sent her back to her reality, would also be the spell to summon the two people that might be able to help her world right now. Within a few moments, she had cast it. A bright blue Triquetra portal opened up in the center of the attic and suddenly four figures were sucked in through, then the portal closed. Persia smiled at the four figures: Emma DeLauro, Alternate Paige Matthews, Wyatt Halliwell, and little Christopher Halliwell. "It's good to see you all, again."

TO BE CONTINUED...

A/N: BTW, I won't be able to update until next week. I have to work Sunday, finish packing (and study) Monday, and then I leave Tuesday and get back late on Friday. Sorry about this.
