Just as Leo finished healing Brian, Brian asks...

"Thanks, how did you do that?" asked the amazed young boy who, 5 minutes earlier, had arrived to the manor to flee an attacker.

"Don't mention it. I'm a white lighter, the Charmed Ones white lighter to be exact! So who are you again?" replied Leo.

"Brian, anyway...what's a Charmed One?" questioned the confused boy.

"Us three, we're very powerful good witches that fight all kinds of evil, warlocks, evil witches. You name it! But shouldn't you already know that?...I mean you found us, you "flash banged" into our house and don't even know the slightest information about us." Phoebe inquired.

"Yes well...I have this gift, it's somewhat complicated to explain. I have a very complex brain chemistry and can do various things with my mind." explained Brian.

"What kinds of things?" asked Paige entering the living room from the kitchen bringing in the tea she had made right before the attack.

"I can move objects, most of the time objects that I can't see."

"That's psycho-kinesis, go on." explained Leo.

"I can sense powerful beings whether they're good or evil. But cannot identify them as such. I can also get inside other peoples minds and hear their thoughts. If I'm on the same wavelength, which is very hard to do, then I can manipulate that thought. I've done some reading up on that one, considering that's the first one I received."

"When did you exactly receive it?" inquired Piper.

"At birth."

"And the others?" asked Piper again.

"My psycho-kinesis, as Leo calls it, manifested during puberty, around age 12. I cannot use that very well. Just recently, like last week, I was able to begin sensing people and the most powerful stood out the most. Which makes it very difficult for me to track where they are."

"So how did you teleport here?" asked Paige sipping her tea.

"I don't know, all I remember is sensing a powerful being and wanting to be here. Then I was here. I was also influenced by fear."

"Fear?" asked Phoebe.

"Yes fear, that man was tracking me attempting to take me back to Aulio's. He is a student of one of the most powerful men I know. He has similar gifts as I do and wants me to be one of his students too. The students are regular people who have very powerful minds as I do. But he teaches them to control it and master different abilities. But since I am the best, well as of now considering I knocked his top student out the window, he will not stop hunting me. That's why I sensed the greatest power I could sense and found you here."

"Wait, how does he find mortals with such complex minds?" asked Paige.

"He must be able to sense them like Brian can, I mean he wants Brian because he knows that he is powerful and could use him as a great advantage."

"Alright I'm assuming this man is evil, but what does he use the student for?" asked Phoebe.

"Well I remember him talking about fighting something non-human called a Stracer. I think it's some kind of monster." answered Brian.

"I've heard little about those creatures...but I have heard of them. There is little known of these creatures because anyone known to come across them has died. So whoever has faced did not live to tell the tale. Maybe we should check the book." proposed Leo.

"Great, I'll get the book, Brian try to get as much info out of your head as possible and Leo maybe you should check the Magic School see if they have anything on this Stracer. Take Wyatt with you please, with demons running in and out of the house, it's not safe." suggested Piper.

"Right!" with that order, Leo orbed into baby Wyatt's room and picked him up out of his crib and orbed him to the magic school where a female elder would be pleased to look after him. Giving Leo time to check reference on the Stracer. Phoebe and Paige continued to probe Brian for answers all while drinking tea. Piper exited to get the book when suddenly another person appeared in the room by way of blue light, a female this time. Piper threw her hands out to freeze the individual but instead blew the woman across the room into the stairs.

"Ahh! What happened." Piper asked concerned. At that moment everyone jumped up confused and ran to the stairs.

"Lyra!" Brian let out with in an awestruck sob.

"Who's Lyra...?" asked Paige.

"Someone after Brian I think." explained Piper.

"Good!" the other two sisters said in unison.

"No, this would be my friend, and someone...trying to save me." finished Brian.

At that moment another person entered after a recurring flash of red light with an already equipped fire ball. No one sensed him but Brian, who jumped in the way of the fire ball which was aimed at the back of Phoebe's head. Brian flew up the steps with a trail of blood trickling down the corners of his mouth.

"Oh my G..." Piper threw her hands up to blow up the man who had entered. With that the man transformed into little pieces of black shredded material and then flame emitted from them and they evaporated into mid air. Then a worried Phoebe said.

"Piper, I think he's dead."
