An: Yeah, this is a redo of an old story I was working on. I wanted to rewrite it, which is why I took both it and the sequel off

Summary: Siobhan, Amanda, and Kailyn are three sisters known as the Sacred Ones, but what happens when their worlds are crossed, and they're stuck in the life of the Charmed Ones, and vice versa?

The Sacred Ones

PROLOGUE

Kailyn Hollow groaned and climbed out of the bed nervously. She had heard a loud thump come from outside the bedroom door, and she wasn't sure what it could be. She tiptoed to the door and peaked out, a tall stranger standing out there, looking around. His back was to her, but she could see that his dark hair was soaking wet and he was dripping water onto the carpet.

"Shoot," He murmured.

Kailyn quickly closed the door again, and looked across the room to where her older sister, Amanda, was sleeping. She shook her awake. "Amanda?" She whispered.

The older girl simply groaned and turned over. Kailyn went back to the door, but whoever had been there was now gone. She pushed the door open and crossed the hall to her other sister's room. She knocked gently on the door.

"Go back to bed, Kailyn!" Siobhan called. Kailyn frowned, and then opened the door. Inside Siobhan was just pulling on a robe.

"You're telling me to go back to bed but you can wake up?" Kailyn demanded, her hands now on her hips. Siobhan rolled her eyes.

"Be quiet. You'll wake Steve," She whispered, pointing to the man sleeping in her bed. "Besides, I have a kid to check on."

Once the two were out in the hall and the door was closed, Kailyn whispered, "Siobhan, someone was here."

The older girl narrowed her eyes. "What do you mean someone was here?" She sighed. "Amanda doesn't have anyone -."

"No, Amanda's asleep. I mean there was someone in the hall." She pointed to the still wet spot on the floor.

"If there was someone they're still here, right?" Siobhan countered. She looked around. "I don't see anyone, and if I don't see anyone, then it was just a dream." She then pushed open a bedroom door and looked in on the five year old lying in his bed.

Kailyn gripped her older sister's arm tightly. "There was someone here," She stressed. Siobhan shook her head.

"Maybe it was a robber," She whispered back, pulling the door closed. She flicked off the light switch in the hall, and then pointed to the room that Kailyn and Amanda were temporarily sharing. "Go back to bed."

Kailyn groaned with annoyance, and then turned in the opposite direction.

"Now where are you going?" Siobhan demanded.

"I'm just checking on the book," Kailyn said simply.

"Nothing evil can touch it," Siobhan reminded her. Kailyn shrugged.

"I could use something to drink," She replied. Siobhan didn't say anything, just grumbled to her bedroom, saying something about paranoid sisters. Kailyn waited until the door was closed, and then she crept downstairs, heading for the basement of their home.

The basement was where they hid all their witchcraft, including their Book of Shadows. Kailyn and her older sisters, Siobhan and Amanda, were known as the Sacred Ones. Siobhan was the oldest, being twenty-eight. Amanda was quick to follow being twenty-seven, and last was Kailyn being twenty-four. Actually, Amanda was their half sister. See, their parents hadn't been married when Siobhan was born. Unfortunately, the whole thing was a big problem, because their Father was already married - to Amanda's mother, Marie. After he found out about Siobhan, he left his wife to move in with the woman he really loved, Siobhan's mother, Elizabeth. A few years later, Kailyn was born. And when Kailyn was twenty, she went searching for her older half sister. Even under the circumstances, Kailyn and Amanda became quick friends. Siobhan wasn't as easy to convince, but when Amanda's apartment burned a few years ago, Siobhan had offered for her to come and stay with them. The reason she was staying in Kailyn's room now was because earlier that day they had repainted Amanda's room, and there were still the fumes in there.

Kailyn was halfway across the room to the basement when there was a gentle knock at the door. Kailyn jumped, frightened by the sudden noise, and then went quickly to the door before they could knock again. She pulled open one of the double doors and was surprised to be pulled into a hug.

"Derek, let me go!" She whispered, when she realized it was her boyfriend. He snickered at her, and then walked into the room. Derek wasn't like Steve. He was actually human, where as Siobhan's husband was a warlock. No, he wasn't an evil warlock, but he was a warlock and he did understand magic. Fortunately, though, Derek didn't have to be magical to understand magic. He was completely understanding of Kailyn's destiny.

Kailyn gently closed the door. "Why are you here?" She asked.

"I know it's late -," Derek said, then he glanced over at the clock on the wall, which read two a.m. "I know it's really late, but I wanted to check up on you."

"Check up on me?" Kailyn asked. She smirked at the thought. Here was a human coming to check on a witch.

"Are you two going to get a room, or no?" A voice asked from the stairwell. Kailyn looked to see a grumpy looking Amanda walked down, dressed simply in boxers and an overly large t-shirt, her long brown hair pulled back in a sloppy bun. She yawned and then eyed them suspiciously. Then she grinned slyly. "Well, the bedroom's free if you wanted to use it. I can stay down here."

"Why are you up, anyways?"

"Demon," Amanda mumbled. She came up next to her younger sister.

"Demon?" Derek asked. He and Kailyn exchanged worried glances.

"Oh, don't worry. I just blew him up – he won't be coming back any time soon. Hopefully. I'm just checking the book to make sure it won't, ya know?" She asked.

"I guess. Want some company? I was just making my way down there myself," Kailyn said.

Amanda glanced over at Derek. "Nah, I think you're going to be a little busy," She said. Kailyn whacked her on the arm.

"Grow up," She said. Amanda just grinned. Then she stretched out.

"Damn demons don't seem to understand sleep cannot be interrupted." Her eyes drifted back to Derek. I can't help it. "Then again, neither can boyfriends, apparently."

"Get out!" Kailyn exclaimed with annoyance. "Before you end up waking up Siobhan again. Go, go!" She pushed her grinning sister out of the room, and then turned back to Derek.

"I should be going too, huh?" He asked.

"Not unless you want some more teasing from Amanda," Kailyn said.

"Are you sure he doesn't want to stay just a bit longer?" Amanda called from the kitchen.

"Go!"

Derek chucked, and then shook his head. "Nah, I think I'll pass. Besides, I just wanted to come and tell you I'm back from France."

"Good idea. About the Amanda thing, I mean. Coming to tell me that you got back isn't a great idea." Kailyn said. Derek grinned, and then leaned down and kissed her gently on the lips.

"Night," He whispered.

"Good night," Kailyn said. With that he walked out and Kailyn went into the kitchen and peered down the basement staircase, her short blond hair drifting into her face. She brushed her bangs out of her eyes and called out, "Amanda?"

There was no reply. She nervously pattered down the stairs, her slippers smacking against the cement steps. "Amanda?" She stepped into the basement to see her sister missing. She opened her mouth to call for Siobhan, but a hand wrapped around her mouth before she could.
