A/N: I got told that I would be killed if I didn't write a sequel to Charlie's BOS but to tell you the truth that didn't bother me. I just wanted to write a sequel anyway.

A/N: there might be a story from each of the kids but I don't know yet.

Disclaimer: Many of the characters in this belong to me, but the recognised characters from Sweep don't.

Keira.

At the age of eighteen a young woman called Keira receives a letter from her friend in Ireland asking her to go and stay with her. This is the story of the second of Charlie and Alisa's children when she starts her life.

Chapter One. Letter

Dear Keira,

Darling, how are you? it's been so long since we spoke and I don't even have your number anymore so I couldn't ring you. so much has happened, I can't believe how busy everything's been… Funny to think the last time I saw you was just after the wedding, but then I understand why you had to go back. How is everyone? Shaun and Arewen? Hope they're well! I kept meaning to write to you all but just haven't had the time. Arewen must be getting really big now. seven years old, is it?

Oh yea, I knew there was some reason I had to write to you, apart for a chat. Mom's making me write because she wants you to come and stay. I know, that sounds like I don't want you to come but I really do. we were such close friends before and it makes sense for us to hang out when we're old enough. Mom and Hunter (god, it's been years and I still can't call him dad) wouldn't mind seeing your mom and dad again but Mom says that they're probably a little bit busy at the moment. I suppose Shaun and Mary are still getting on okay…send my love to them anyway. I've got to go now because mom needs me, but please write or ring me about coming to stay.

Thinking about you loads,

Moira.

Keira Findgoll put down the letter and smiled, taking out the photo's and looking down at them. Moira had changed a lot, though she was still recognisable. Her hair had grown a lot longer and was tied back in one of the photos, in which she was waving into the camera with a big grin on her face and her family surrounding her. The other looked more relaxed. It showed Moira and Ian standing together on the shore near Moira's house, smiling at each other with what could only be described as deep love. Keira didn't want to feel gelous but it was hard sometimes, Moira's life just seemed so perfect but the last romance she'd been in ended in tears.

It wasn't Keira's fault though, but her boyfriend of three years had found out about her being Wiccan and hated the idea. He dumped her the very next day.

Well, it wasn't a hard decision as to what to do about Moira's letter. Of course she'd go to Ireland, her mother was always saying she should try and get involved in some other covens and Belwicket would be a perfect chance to do that. She had attended Ronseal circles before but it just didn't feel right, they weren't the same as Kithic circles and that was all she was used to…though often she wished it wasn't. It would be good to go to Ireland and attend some more coven circles. There weren't many options left for her at home.

KEIRA'S DIARY (the rest of the story will be this)

Dear diary,

Amazing, totally amazing. I hadn't spoken to Moira Riordan in years and then I got a letter from her today. And me and Shaun were only talking about her and the wedding last night. because Shaun is staying with us again, just for a few days this time because the latest girlfriend wants him to go back to her. I don't get why he bothers with so many really, it's a waste of time. actually, when he read the letter (over my shoulder, it's a habit he still can't get out off) he got kind of down in the dumps. He's still really strung up over Mary even though it was eighteen months ago when they split up. I suppose in his place I would be the same. He loved her to bits but she just didn't feel the same way. I reckon if she'd been up for a serious relationship Shaun would be settled down by now but since the split he's just been between women constantly. I don't even know the name of the latest one. hang on, I'll just ask him…Okay, Shaun says Kate but I should mind my own business. I suppose fair enough, but it's not like we're little kids anymore…we're all grown up now.

Awh, though. Arewen turns seven next week, and she's so adorable. Funny to think I'm eleven years older than her, I've never really thought about it before but Mom and Dad must have had one hell of a break. But I don't exactly want to think about that…I mean, yea, they're humans but they're still my parents. Yuck.

I've been thinking a lot since I got that letter. Who knows, depending on what happens in Ireland I might not even come back here…at least not for good anyway. I know, I know, I'm thinking way too far ahead, I'll just do a few weeks there first but I don't know…there's so little here for me now, it's not like I'm really staying for anything other than Arewen. I've finished school and I've got the basic degree's. the plan for my life doesn't really involve a job in any hi-tech place so I could probably manage without a really advanced degree…I just want to help people and I think I can do that how I am.

I was looking through some old photo albums with Shaun yesterday too…we do a lot of that type of stuff when he's staying or when I'm staying with him because we are close and we don't see enough of each other. There was some stuff in there from when we were younger, like when I was only five and he was seven, and stuff from before that too. I don't know why but it just made me cry. There was a picture of us with Gloria too, and it just made me think…how long has it been since we actually saw our cousin? She's twenty-one now, because she's about six months older than Shaun. He still sees her sometimes, because he's never really at home, always going to different places and staying with different people. I suppose that's right for him but for me I just couldn't cope. I mean, fair enough I want to travel, but he has no plans aside from travelling. The longest he's been home since he was seventeen was a month, and then there was the two months he spent with us when we went to Ireland for the wedding, but that didn't really count because we weren't at home for most of that time and he stayed in Ireland afterwards anyway so he could travel around getting to know other covens. That's why he travels, he tells me. it's because he want's to know as much about the different aspects of Wicca as he can, and the easiest way to do that is to know other people. he was in Ireland for months and from what I can get from his stories he was never in one place for more than a month. Though he told me about some fairly amazing people, and gave me some addresses of people who I could go and stay with when I was in Ireland. I'm not sure yet but I think I might just take him up on his offer. But I don't know yet…I haven't really given it that much thought…just a whisper of an idea.

Akasha and Saoirse are brilliant friends of mine still…even though they're more Shaun's age. Apparently they were born with powers but over they years that kind of went away…but Akasha got involved in Wicca as soon as she was old enough to understand and she's a major member of Kithic now. I suppose she would be, being the sister of our leader and adopted daughter of the coven (Akasha and Saoirse are supposed to have been the first babies born in peoples families since the creation of Kithic). Saoirse we don't really talk about that much, but she still comes home sometimes with her family to visit us. she's got it sorted really. She went to college while her sister went travelling and then met someone and ended up married. And she's only twenty-three! Well it all goes right for some people, even if the life she has isn't the life I would have chosen. I think deep down she would have liked to take up Wicca but she has always cared a lot about what people think of her, and Wicca wasn't a popular thing to be into when she was at school. she left two years before me but even when I was there it wasn't exactly popular. It wasn't unpopular either though, but only because Bree Warrens daughter Kaylee and Robbie's son James were at school with me. even though Bree and Kaylee moved away when I was very young. I'm still good friends with James. Actually, I think if I had to choose someone who I felt I had any interest in around here it would be James. And I'm not really sure why, I guess it's just because he's a really good friend and I trust him. Sort of like Mom was with Robbie I suppose.

I've got to go now… mom and dad have gone out and I want to put Arewen to bed early so I can have some more time with Shaun. I never realise how much I miss him until he's here staying with us again. I'm going to miss him so much when he's gone again.

Love,

Keira.

Okay, so this is only the first chapter and I haven't really got into it yet. So tell me what you think and more will be coming. I've been trying to write a sequel to Charlie's BOS for ages now but this is the first time I've found a storyline I enjoy. Anyway, review…please…my writing depends on it. thinking about you all (spesh fans of Charlie's BOS, you know who you are).

Love and Peace (cause in this day and age we need peace, a lot),

The One And Only,

Stargazing Maiden.
