The Fourth Charmed One

AN: Thank you for the reviews. You'll just have to wait to see what Jason's power is, because I don't know myself yet. Prue had telekinesis and astral projection, Piper freezes time and blows things up, Phoebe sees the future and levitates, and Paige can orb things to her and orb like Leo can. That pretty much takes up quite a few powers. Jason will also be able to orb because he is going to be Paige's twin brother. If you have any suggestions please let me know.

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Power Ranger characters or the Charmed characters.

CHAPTER 2

Meeting the New Neighbors and Remembering

Jason and Billy were having a hard time standing up, they were laughing so hard. Tommy looked like he was getting ready for a date instead of going across the street for dinner. It was final, they had lost Tommy to the love bug again. He always drove himself crazy when he met someone knew. It was only after he had dated the girl for awhile that he settled down a little. It was funny until he started driving them crazy. With Kim, he had driven everyone crazy wondering if he should ask her to the dance, only Billy was bugged the first time he asked Kat out, and now it looked like both Jason and Billy were going to driven nuts. Paige seemed like she was nice enough, but they didn't know anything about her. Jason had a feeling that meeting Paige and her sisters was going to bring them nothing but trouble.

Billy noticed that Jason had stopped laughing and was deep in thought. It was obvious that he was worried about something, but Billy and Tommy couldn't get him to tell them what it was. Jason never could stop being team leader, even when Tommy had taken over that role. If anything ever went wrong, Jason always felt that he was the one to blame for it. He never could give up the guilt. Tommy use to be the same way until Kim had told him otherwise. Taking the blame was all right if you were the one responsible for what had happened, but you would only end up getting hurt if you started blaming yourself for what anyone else did. Tommy and Billy had tried to convince Jason of that but it never seemed to work. Billy knew that Jason was still beating himself up for what had happened to Kim five years ago. Jason needed to get his mind off of Kim, and maybe tonight was a good way to start.

It was 6:55 PM when Tommy pulled both Jason and Billy out the door. With Jason's mind on Kim, he didn't even notice the pull on his wrist. Jason may not have noticed but Billy did. Billy tried to pull his wrist out of Tommy's grasp. He finally succeeded when they reached the house across the street. Tommy was already knocking before they even stopped at the door. Paige opened the door. Jason noticed that her hair was swept away from her face. It didn't occur to him earlier, but she seemed really familiar to him. He just wished that he knew why.

"Come on in a meet my sisters," Paige said. Tommy was the first one to enter. Billy and Jason seemed a little hesitant at first, but the entered the house anyway. Jason noticed that Tommy was talking to Paige non-stop. In fact he only stopped when three people entered the living room where they were led to.

"This is my family. That one's Phoebe. The one holding the baby is Piper. That's Wyatt, and Leo is Piper's husband."

"Hi I'm Tommy, that's Billy and Jason is the one standing by the window."

"Hi," Billy said while Jason just nodded his head.

"Hello." Piper and Phoebe seemed to hate this little get together almost as much as Jason did from the sound of it.

"Why don't all of you sit down, and I'll get the drinks. What would you like?" Leo asked everyone.

"Wine." Piper, Phoebe, and Paige all said at the same time.

"Beer if you have any," Tommy said.

"I'll have the same as Tommy," Billy told Leo.

"Jason?"

"Nothing."

"Are you sure?" Jason nodded.

Kim watched as the oldest of her charges played on the swings. She was only 7 years old. That was how old Kim had been when she first met Leo. She was starting a gymnastics class at the youth center. She had been afraid that nobody would like her. That's when Leo came up to her. He introduced her to Jason and Billy. Jason was there for a martial arts class, and Billy was there for a computer class. They had become friends quickly. They were the best of friends until the day she died. That was five years ago. Kim thought about that fateful day.

**Flashback**

She had just finished her last class of the day and was heading toward the youth center where she worked. As usual, her thoughts were on Jason. She had been thinking about him a lot lately. Ever since Muranthias actually. She remembered everything about that trip home, but nothing could compare to the smile Jason gave her when they had both been freed from Malagore's spell. It seemed to show all of his emotions at the same time. Thinking about that day, Kim came to a decision. It was time to go home. She needed to tell Jason how she felt. Unknown to her, she would never make it home. Just as she turned the corner Drake, a guy she knew from school, stepped in front of her.

"Hello Kim."

"Hey Drake. I would love to stay and talk, but I really need to get to work."

"Hey I won't stop you. I just wanted to know if you have changed your mind about going out with me?"
"I can't Drake. I'm in love with someone. In fact, I was just thinking about paying him a visit. I'm sorry."

"So am I." Kim noticed the evil look that came over his face. It was a look that Kim couldn't forget. She had seen it countless times when she had been the Pink Ranger. She slowly began to back away. She heard a bang and then felt something enter her chest.

Kim hadn't noticed that Drake had been carrying a gun. He smirked as he saw her laying on the sidewalk bleeding to death. 'If I can't have her, than nobody would,' he thought to himself. Now they would always be together. He didn't notice the police officer coming up behind him. As he lifted the gun to his head, the officer grabbed his wrist and twisted his arm behind him. The gun was taken from him, and he was arrested for murder.

**End Flashback**

Kim would never know what would happen to her if she hadn't accepted the Elders offer to become a Whitelighter. Leo was the one to show her around. He had been her Whitelighter when she was growing up, so it only made sense for him to teach her. First she was given her charges. One of them being two years old. She was adorable. Her name was Cassandra, but everyone called her Cassie. Her blue eyes showed an innocence that Kim had forgotten even existed. That's when Kim realized that she had made the right decision about becoming a Whitelighter. Whenever something got Kim down during that first year, she would go see Cassie. The little girl made her realize that not everything in life was part of evils scheme.

Kim noticed that she was watching Cassie play. Something's would never change. That little girl still had the ability to cheer Kim up. Kim shook her head and turned to leave the park. With one last look at Cassie, Kim headed to the nearest ally. Kim orbed the minute she was out of sight. She knew that the Elders were calling her. By the looks of it, they were call all of the Whitelighters. Sam and Leo stood off to the side talking. Kim headed in their direction. She hated talking to the others, they were so serious most of the time. Sam and Leo would at least acknowledge her with smiles.

"Hey guys."

"Kim you made it." Kim nodded.

"Weren't you suppose to be having dinner with your new neighbors Leo?"

"I was just telling Sam that I had to tell them that my beeper went off. They bought it too."
"It doesn't surprise me, just be careful. Billy might want to see it."

"Thanks for the warning Kim."

"So what's going on?"

"Nobody knows. They called us up here and they haven't said anything yet."

"Can we have your attention please? Thank you. We have summoned you here to inform you that this has become a dangerous time for all of you. Several Darklighters have joined together. They have begun to hunt for all of you. Their leader is looking for one of you specifically. Some of you will have to stay here until we know more. Those of you that have charges that are strong enough to protect you may come and go as you please. Those of you that don't will have to stay here. That is all for now." The Elders left. The only one that had any kind of emotion on their face was Kim. She was stuck up here, because her charges were all children. She hated this.

"Don't worry Kim, we'll think of something. Who knows, maybe they'll let you stay with me for awhile," Leo said.

"Thanks Leo, but I don't think they'll go for it. Besides with Wyatt you don't have enough room. I'll just have to keep an eye on everything from up here."

"Kimberly." Kim turned to see one of the Elders standing behind her.

"Yes sir."

"We have removed Jason from your care until his powers not only manifest themselves, but until he is strong enough to protect you from the Darklighters." Leo watched as Kim's face registered the shock and disappointment she felt. "Sam will take over for you until Jason is stronger. All of your charges will be cared for by others. You are not to leave." Both Sam and Leo noticed the bright sheen of tears in Kim's eyes. The tears never fell while the Elder was standing there. The moment he left, they sprang free from her eyes. Kim turned and ran away from the two men whom were her friends.

Leo and Sam watched as Kim ran through the crowd of Whitelighters. They knew that it was all just too much for her. First she lost her freedom, and now all of her charges were being assigned to others. They wanted to go after her, but they knew that she needed to be alone right know. It was never easy to lose a charge. They both knew that. They had both lost to many to death, but to lose one the way Kim did was almost enough to destroy a Whitelighter. They would both check up on her in a couple of day. They knew she wasn't going anywhere. The Elders had decreed that she wouldn't leave. That meant that her orbing powers had just been stripped from her for the time being. Leo and Sam both vowed silently to get Jason up to speed in a hurry. Kim would hurt them both if she had to stay up here for too long. They orbed to the Halliwell Manor. They had work to do and family to inform.
