Author's Note: I know this plot has been done a gazillion times, but this has been rumbling around in my head for weeks and I just had to write it down. Like most other fanfic authors, I love to write Piper/Leo fics. (God damn the Charmed writers for ever splitting them up. And they will have a daughter God Damn it! If they don't, and if season 7 is the last season, the writers and producers better expect some serious hate mail from me and a Hell of a lot of other Charmed fans world wide. Ok, now that I am done rampaging about how pissed I am about the show, let me continue talking about this fic. Now where was I… oh yes…) I love Piper and Leo fics, especially ones with Dan squeezed in there some how. And in most other Piper/Leo/Dan fics, Dan is the bad guy (that's what he gets for using too much hair gel or whatever the Hell he does to get it that greasy). As the title suggests, it is based when the girls are in high school. But instead of them going to school in the 80's/90's, they are going to school in modern day. That's right, cell phones, computers, the whole technological works (plus the foul language of today's youth). So here's a short bio on the main characters, the setting, and so on.
All four girls have their powers and live at the manor with Grams. Penny died when Paige was a baby. Victor always kept in touch with Prue, Piper, and Phoebe, and Sam frequently visits Paige. Prue is 17, a cheerleader, and has been dating Andy for a couple years. Piper is 16, a social outcast, and has virtually no friends other than her sisters. Phoebe is 15, semi-popular, and has a lot of guy-friends. Paige is 14 and is like Prue, except she doesn't have a boyfriend.
Andy and Leo are half brothers. Andy graduated high school a year ago and is currently enrolled in the local police academy. Leo is half human from his mother's side, but still has all the white-lighter powers. The boys used to live next door to the Halliwells with their mother, but she died a few years ago in a car accident. They now live in an apartment complex owned by their uncle, so they don't have to pay rent. Leo has been the Halliwells' white-lighter since they were all in elementary school. He is also on the varsity football team with Dan, his best friend.
Dan lives next door to the Halliwells with his parents and sister. He and Leo have known each other for years and have grown up together almost like brothers. (ha ha, he gets the shorter bio for being…him)
Now that you know a little about the characters, lets get on to the story.
Piper is sitting in a classroom scribbling down notes on a notepad, when she feels a vibration in her pocket. She pulls her cell phone out and realizes someone has sent her a text message with an 'urgent' status.
'Not now, we're reviewing for a test!' she thinks to herself.
She opens the message and it reads 'Piper, freeze the room so I can astral in.' She flexes her wrists and freezes everyone in the classroom. A few seconds, later Prue astral projects beside her.
"Demon… attic… we need your help." She says out of breath.
"Well how am I supposed to get out of here? They won't stay frozen for long."
"Ask to go to the bathroom. Call Paige and she will orb you to the manor. Got to go."
Prue astrals away just a few seconds before the freeze wears off. Piper raises her hand.
"Piper, do you have a question?"
"Mrs. Smith, may I please be excused to use the bathroom really quick?"
"Piper, we're reviewing for the test next week."
"I know, but it's an absolute emergency."
"Fine. Take the pass and hurry up!"
Piper grabs the block of wood that has 'Bathroom Pass' engraved on it, and leaves the room. As she walks down the hall, Phoebe runs up to her.
"Hi Piper! Wutcha doing?"
"Don't mind me. Why aren't you in class?"
"Prue called me."
"In class?"
"No…"
"You were skipping."
"Yup."
"Phoebe…"
"I know, 'Those friends of mine have a bad influence on me and I will fail tenth grade if I keep this up.' Prue already gave me that lecture."
"She's right, you know."
"I don't give a fuck."
"Language!"
"I'm sorry, I don't give a damn."
"That's better."
"So where are we going?"
"Girls bathroom. Paige is gonna orb in and take us to the manor. Do you know what's going on?"
"Oh, the usual. A demon attacked Grams trying to get the Book of Shadows so he could bind our powers and thus destroy the Charmed Ones."
"Simple solution. I freeze him, you knock him on his ass, Prue flings him across the room, Paige orbs any fireballs he may throw back towards him, and I blow him up. Then Paige orbs Grams to the hospital if need be."
"Well that's fairly easy."
"Let's just hope it all goes to plan."
They enter the girls bathroom and check under the stalls to make sure it's empty. Then Piper shouts toward the ceiling.
"Paige!"
A few minutes pass, but Paige doesn't come. Phoebe looks at Piper's worried face.
"Why do you think she's not answering?"
"Something's wrong. Paige always comes when we need her."
Suddenly, a swarm of blue and white orbs enters through the ceiling, but instead of revealing Paige, they reveal a tall young man with sandy blonde hair. Piper looks at him in confusion.
"Leo? What are you doing here? Where's Paige?"
"She couldn't leave. She, Prue, and Grams are fighting demons. Come on, we need to go."
Leo holds out his hands and Piper and Phoebe each grab hold of one. Then a swarm of orbs surrounds them and takes them away.
Paige, Prue, and Grams dive behind the old sofa in the attic to avoid a mob of fireballs. Leo, Piper, and Phoebe orb in, and quickly duck behind it with them to avoid another swarm.
"The hell is going on here?" Phoebe asks in annoyance.
"A vanquish." Paige replies.
"Piper, could you please…" Grams pleads.
Piper stands up and freezes the five demons attacking. Prue and Grams send them flying across the room while Piper blows up two and Paige, Phoebe, and Leo throw potions at the remaining three, causing them to explode into flames. Grams walks over and investigates the new scorch marks on the floor.
"Nicely done girls… and Leo. Now, back to school, all of you."
"Aw Grams, do we hafta?"
"Yes, Phoebe, you hafta. Especially since I hear you've been skipping class again."
Phoebe glares at Prue.
"Tattletale!"
"It was for your own good. I have no guilt or shame."
"I guess I'll see you guys later." Leo says just before he orbs out. Prue, Piper, and Phoebe grab a hold of Paige and they all orb out too.
Piper is running down the hall with the wooden bathroom pass when she reaches her class. She pauses a moment to catch her breath, and then walk in. The whole class stares at her.
"Piper, you've been gone for half an hour. Are you alright?" Mrs. Smith, the teacher, asks in concern.
"Yes, I'll be fine."
She puts the pass back on chalkboard ledge and takes her seat. As soon as she sits down, the bell rings and students start to file out of the room. Piper grabs her books and follows.
