A/N: Wow…sorry it took me so long to update my story. You all have my most sincere apologies! I'm going to need some help with ideas for this story because mine are running out. It seemed like a good idea at first and now I want to write it, I'm just not sure how to go about it….

Swimnewbie: Thanks. I wasn't a big Paige fan at first but she's growing on me. Well, I hope you like this story. This is the first on of mine that deals with them in their teen years so it's not that great.

Fanmania: You're like my biggest supporter here… lol. Thanks for taking time out of your day to read my stories.

P3CharmedForever: I'm working on it….

Soccerstar11-5: I'm glad and I'd love any opinions or criticism!

Curius: thanks! I hope you like this chapter!

Chapter Two: Secrets

"This is not supposed to happen. Grams, I thought that you said no magic! Now my friend is going to be freaked out and she's never going to like me again," Phoebe said rushing around Grams. She stopped pacing and took a deep breath. "I mean, how could this happen?" She hovered a few feet in the air and then re-planted her feet on the ground.

"No magic huh?" Grams said slyly.

"You know that I can't help that!" Phoebe replied. "Why….why did that thing with the chandelier happen? That happened when we first got our powers. Why did it happen again? I mean, I don't even think that my friend know about magic. I just…"

"Phoebe," Grams stopped her. "You're rambling. We'll figure out something. It's okay. If you want, I could call my Whitelighter and see if he'll use memory dust on her."

"Fine," Phoebe sighed. "Will it work?"

"I'm sure it will. Ken!" Grams called. A tall man with shaggy brown hair orbed in.

"Yes?" he asked.

"Um, we need you to use some memory dust one a young lady that is in our living room, downstairs. Her name is Paige and she saw the chandelier magically glow. We just need you to sustain her until we can find out why it glowed like it did," Grams explained.

"Okay," Ken said, orbing downstairs just as Prue and Piper came into the attic.

"So, has she been asking questions?" Phoebe asked eagerly.

"Not really," Piper replied. "Actually, she was pretty quiet for the most part.

"I could understand. I mean, if I saw magic for the first time in my life and had no idea what it was, I wouldn't want to talk to anyone either." Phoebe said.

Ken orbed downstairs to see Paige sitting on the couch. She looked up at him, surprised. "Ken?" she asked. "What are you doing here?" Ken had been Paige's Whitelighter mentor through the years.

"Paige?" he asked, eyes wide open. "What… what happened? They want me to use memory dust on you."

"Well," she replied, "I came in here and the chandelier began to glow a blue color."

"It did that the first time the Charmed Ones received their powers," he said slowly.

"Yea and I'm sure that everyone in the magical world knows that," she replied with a sideways glance at him.

"I'm going to go ask the Elders something. Act like I erased your memory of the whole glowing lights thing, okay?"

Paige nodded. Even though she wondered what Ken was thinking, she didn't bother to question him about it. She smiled as he orbed out.

"I had heard rumors but never thought they were true. The Halliwell's mother did have another child. Why didn't you tell me that?" Ken questioned.

"We didn't think that it was relevant," said one elder, an older man with graying hair.

"Well, it evidently was because the youngest sister and Paige have become friends and Paige was invited to their home and guess what? When she went into that house, the chandelier glimmered as it did when the Power of Three was assembled. Looks like the Power of Three has been replaced by the Power of Four."

"That's not possible."

"You said it yourself, Patty Halliwell had another daughter. Her and Phoebe became friends and now they have found their lost sister. What are you going to do about it?"

"Well, there is nothing that we can really do."

"Then I will do something," And with that, Ken smiled and orbed back to the Manor.

"Paige!" Ken called as he orbed into the attic. "Could you please come up here please?"

"Ken! What are you doing? You know that she can't come up here!" Grams snapped.

"Just wait, we all need to talk. All of us, including you three," he said pointing to the three sisters.

Paige appeared in the door frame and meagerly looked around at everyone in the room, surveying them. "You called?"

"Yes," Ken said. "Look, I have something very important to tell you but I'm not quite sure how to do it."

"Ken, you know that you can just tell us," Grams said.

"Um, Paige knows about magic."

"Whoa! No way!" Phoebe said excitedly. She hugged Paige. "Why didn't you tell me?"

"Because I wasn't allowed to," she explained.

"Why not?" Phoebe asked.

"Because," Ken said. "She is your Whitelighter. All of you."

"We have an angel like you too?" Piper asked. Ken nodded.

"Wow," was all that Prue could manage to say.

"That wasn't that bad," Grams said.

"But that's not the end of it," Ken explained. "Paige is also your sister."

"Okay, now you're just messing with me," Phoebe replied.

"No," he responded. "Your mother had another daughter with her Whitelighter, Sam. She dropped you off at a church where a nun turned you over to the Matthews'." He said to Paige. "This is your destiny. You have to accept it. I'm sorry to be the one to have to tell you this."

"No, it's okay Ken. It really is. I… I just need to go somewhere for a while." Paige smiled apologetically and orbed out and to the Golden Gate Bridge.

"Wow…" Prue said again. "We have another sister. Well, look at it this way Phoebes, you don't have to be the youngest anymore."

Phoebe smiled fakely. "Gee thanks sis but that's not the best way to lighten the mood. Ken, can you take me to her?"

"I think that it's best to give her some air and some time to take this all in," he replied.

"No, she needs someone and I'm that person. I'm not going to her as her sister, I'm going to her as a friend."

Ken waved his hand and Phoebe was at the top of the Golden Gate Bridge, standing behind Paige.

"Thanks for coming," Paige said softly. Phoebe sat down next to her.

"I would love you even if I hadn't just found out that we were sisters. Since we became friends, it was just weird. Almost as if we could read each other's thoughts and feelings. That kind of thing creates a bond that can't be broken. And it won't be." Phoebe put an arm around Paige's shoulder.

Paige leaned into her and smiled. "Thanks sis."

"No problem."

Piper and Prue sat on the couch in the attic, quietly talking when a demon shimmered in in front of them. "PHOEBE! PAIGE!" they called.

A/N: Okay, sorry about that…. Well, personally, I like this chapter and I hope you do too! Read and review!
