Synopsis: AU It's a world where Phoebe still has premonitions regarding innocents, Piper does more than complain about having a normal life, Leo stays in character, and Paige isn't stupid! That's right! It's my own version of the show, beginning at the end of season 4!

Disclaimer: I do not own or have rights to anything Charmed related. If I did do you think Brian Krause would have left the show?

A/n: This story begins right after the episode, "Long Live the Queen." After much consideration, it is my personal opinion that the real downfall of Charmed begins after this episode. I think that anything wrong with the show today can be directly correlated to the end of Phoebe and Cole's relationship. It was handled so poorly that it chronically messed up every single character in some way.

Now, this is not to say that I have hated the past 4 seasons of Charmed. In fact, there have been some episodes I have absolutely adored ("Sense and Sensibility," "Witchness Protection," "The Seven Year Witch," for example). I just feel like the writers have really betrayed some of the elements that make Charmed what it is, so, I thought to myself, why not write my own version?

Just a warning to everyone who is still reading: I am a HUGE fan of character development and introspection and other fun stuff like that, so parts of this may be more angsty than they would be on the show. But hey, that's my prerogative as the author.

Okay, so...on with the show.
