Chapter 1.………….

San Francisco, California………..Halliwell Manor……….. 12/15/02.…

Paige is in the kitchen doing the dishes when she reaches over and turns the radio on. She then started to wash a fine china plate. When the news came on and started to talk about the loss of St. Louis, Paige is so shocked by what she hears, that she drops the plate and when it hit the floor, it shattered.

Piper was just walking into the kitchen when the plate hit the floor and shattered. She looked down at the floor and then was about to say something to Paige. But Paige turned towards her and Piper can see that there was tears in her eyes.

When Paige turned around she saw that Piper was in the room. When she saw that Piper was looking at her strangely she just pointed at the radio. When Piper heard the radio, she turned and ran into the living room. Paige was right behind her.

Living room…….

Piper went over to the television and turned it on, to see if what the news was saying. It had the same news , except with pictures. Piper turned to Paige and then they both were crying on each others shoulders.

Phoebe's Office………

Phoebe was sitting in her trying to write her next column, when Cole Turner walked in. She looked at him and asked, "What the hell are you doing here?"

Cole looked at his ex-wife and asked her, "Haven't you heard?"

Phoebe looked up at her ex-husband in shock. She then asked, "What did you do now?"

Cole shook his head and then said, "I didn't do anything. Some demon attacked and destroyed the city of St. Louis."

Phoebe looked at him and asked, "What do you mean by destroyed? And what kind of demon was it?"

Cole shook his head again and then sat on the edge of her desk. He then answered, "Destroyed as in, no longer there. It is only a lake now. And No one in the under world knows what type of demon did it. But it had to be one of the dark demons."

The Elder's realm…………

Leo paced back and forth in front of the Elders. He then stopped and asked, for the tenth time, "What do you mean that the Charmed Ones, can do nothing about what happened in St. Louis?"

One of the elders said, "What happened there is not something they can deal with. And the demon that did it is to strong for them. Only the Hero, The Mage, and the Sorceress, have the power to defeat that demon."

Another of the Elders then said, "The Charmed Ones have their own fights to worry about soon. Things are coming and the World will never be the same again."

One of the female elders said, "The Dark One's power grows every minute. His army is growing. The Generals are spreading their evil over the many worlds. One of the Generals is even making his way to San Francisco."

Leo nodded then stopped and listened for a minute then said, "I have to go. My Wife is calling."

Right before Leo orbed away the lead Elder said, "Beware, in two days time, this place will no longer be available to you. For the next few years we will no longer be able to help you for anything. So I am sorry but this is farewell." With that said all of the Elders faded from view and Leo appeared in the Halliwell Manor.

San Francisco……… Halliwell Manor………12/16/02

Leo sat in the in the living room thinking about what he was told yesterday. First the loss of St. Louis, then finding out that he would no longer be able to talk to the Elders. He shook his head. Then almost an hour ago he found out that one of his charges was killed when the building that she worked in, in London, exploded earlier that day.

He was not sure what had happened but he knew that she worked with a group called the Watchers Council. It hurt him when she had died and even hurt him harder, when he knew that she died in agony. He had some clues as to what she was working on but that is it. He knew that things were getting bad al over. He even has talked to a couple of other white lighters and heard from them that they had gotten the same warning from the Elders also.

They also said that they have lost charges in different parts of the world. And that something was going on, That some mysterious group of robed figures were searching for and even killing young girls. One rumor, that Leo had heard, was That these girls were potential slayers. All Leo knew was that He knew the Slayer and that nothing had happened to her. Plus Leo just has a feeling that something really bad was going to happen and sometime soon. Sometime in the next few years. He feared for both his wife and her sisters, and their unborn child.

He shook his head and then decided to go find his wife to talk to her.
