The Unknown Destiny
by Lady Dawson
Chapter One: The Other Scott
Everyone in Tree Hill knew about the story of Dan Scott and his two sons, Nathan and Lucas. That Dan got his high school girlfriend pregnant with Lucas and then moved on to another girl, first semester of college, which pretty much led to Nathan. Eventually, the two boys let go of the rift and became inseparable friends and more than that, brothers.
But there was more to that story, one first kept secret, and then forgotten. For Karen Roe and Debra Lee were not the only women in Dan Scott's life. There was one other that he impregnated with a child. Her name was Elizabeth Dawson. And she knew the secret that Dan had kept from his other girlfriends in the beginning.
She knew that Dan was a witch, a descendant of Melinda Warren. For she was Dan's Whitelighter, a guardian angel for witches.
When the Elders—Elizabeth's bosses—discovered that she was pregnant by a witch, they clipped her wings and she was forced to return to Earth as a mortal. She knew the rules and had broken them, for witches and Whitelighters aren't allowed to fall in love.
Moving away from Tree Hill, Elizabeth raised her daughter Susan ignorant of the magical world, of her father's true identity, and of two half-brothers that she didn't know that she had. Even though Elizabeth knew that her witch-Whitelighter daughter would eventually have to meet them and assume her destiny one day as one of the legendary Charmed Ones, she wanted Susan to have a normal childhood, for as long as possible.
It never occurred to Elizabeth that the time for the Charmed Ones to be awakened was not too far near in the future. For during the summer that her daughter turned seventeen, there was an accident that took Elizabeth's life, leaving her daughter very much alone in the world. But upon her mother's death, Susan discovered more than just her father's identity. She found out about her brothers.
And there was only thing that she could think of to do. She left the life that she had always known behind as Susan Dawson and went to Tree Hill, about to embark on a journey that would test not only her skills, but her brothers as well. They were about to discover their true destiny . . . as the Charmed Ones.
