A/N: This is a play on the T.V. show, "Mutant X", which is the show that Emma comes from. The-Cheese-Fairy: You totally should! "Mutant X" was only on for 3 seasons though. Emma was in the first 2 and when she left they brought in Lexa. lol Sorry 'bout the theme tune. lol Does Jackson watch "Charmed" too? If so, is he a an addict? (And on a side note, "Charmed" addicts unite!) Well that's cool. Jackson sounds awesome! kay: Sorry, the granddaughters won't be appearing in this fic again. C. C. McKenna: Yeah, I still gotta get my present/card up to her (she lives in like the next city over). But I think she'll like it, cause I got this AWESOME card from this shop called All Things Mystical (it's sort of a Wicca typeish shop) and so it has this beautiful red picture of a Goddess on the front. Anywhoville, Pinky's going off again. lol I'm glad you liked the last three chapters (and the titles, I take great pride in coming up with good ones). That's great that you liked the Paigeness, cause I thought that you didn't really like Paige all that well. (P.S. Pinky's waiting for the next thrilling chapter of your story!) ;) RJF: Oh, you're welcome and the Paiges got hurt after the demon attacked his brothers and then realized that Emma had tricked him. "'Liars!' He raved, sending the witches in all different directions." That was where they got hurt and he was going over to finish the Paiges off when Glenn hit him with the potions. It was why Glenn went after that demon instead of the other two brothers. GuevaraX5452: I'm such a pun nerd. I LOVE puns and so I'll just sit there until I come up with a good title. I do it with everything, especially school reports. In fact, my Science Inquiry Lab Report this year was on Evaportion and I spent over 20 minutes coming up with a good title which ended up as, "Evaporation: Water You Think?" (Play on, "Evaporation: What Do You Think?") It sounds a little better when you say it aloud. But anyway, that's just a little insight into the wonderful world of Pinky. lol As far as keeping my storylines correct, it's hard. I hate messing up (like the show) so I try as hard as possible to keep it up to date with the books and/or show and if I've found that I've messed up, then I fix it. As far as "Dark Angel" goes, I've never actually seen the show. The DNA concept was from the T.V. show, "Mutant X" and modified by RJF, the writer of "A Power Divided" and "United As Three", which is where the crossover characters came over. A sort of, crossover within a crossover, if you will. (She borrowed Persia a while back and now I'm borrowing her characters.) Like I told RJF, the Paiges were hurt in this line, "'Liars!' He raved, sending the witches in all different directions." They were the unlucky ones who hit the hardest after the demon hurled everyone around with a telekinetic attack. Thanks for the kudos:-D (P.S. Sorry I never got back to you, but I'm still curious about the Challenge Fic. What did you have in mind? I'm pretty sure I could take a shot at it.)

Every Halliwell Counts
Chapter 4: Mutant Ex

Leo and Pearl orbed in, hand in hand. Each one immediately knelt down to one of the witch-whitelighters and activated their respective healing abilities. Minutes later, the youngest Charmed Ones had awoken.

"Mom!" Pearl cried, hugging Paige. "I was so afraid that-that..."

"Shh.." Paige comforted. "I'm fine."

Alternate Paige and Glenn exchanged looks, staring into each other's eyes.

Alternate Paige felt her throat close up. She knew that this was an alternate reality to her reality and in her reality, Glenn was married. She also knew that she loved Aidan with all her heart, even if she'd never be able to see him again. But for some strange reason, Glenn still had some power over her, even if he wasn't 'her Glenn'. Maybe it was because she was so heart broken over Aidan? Maybe it was because she feltlike nobody really cared about her? Or maybe it was becausehe'd just saved her life and she was in a fragile state?"G-Glenn?"

Glenn held out an awaiting hand. "Here." He said, pulling Alternate Paige to her feet. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah." Alternate Paige replied, breathing in deeply.

"Thanks to you." Emma said, motioning to Glenn. "If it hadn't been for you, I don't think they would have left."

"And those two would probably be..." Phoebe motioned to Paige and Alternate Paige, then she made a slitting motion across her throat.

"How'd you do that, anyway?" Emma asked. "Are you a witch too?"

Glenn laughed, shaking his head. "No, no. I'm mortal. But when I heard everything and saw Piper hit the ground, then Leo orb into heal her, I knew I had to do something."

"And?"

"And so I gathered a bunch of potions from the pantry and just hurled them at that demon."

"You were lucky that they didn't react to one another." Paige scolded.

"Yeah, that's how we met Persia in the first place." Emma said.

"But we're greatful that you did it." Paige sighed, kissing her husband's lips. "I don't want to die young."

"And you won't." Glenn promised, kissing his wife.

Alternate Paige bit her lip, before motioning for Wyatt to come to her. "We should probably work on writing a vanquishing spell."

"And a vanquishing potion." Pearl said.

"A couple of them." Phoebe added.

"But how are we going to catch them?" Piper asked, as she and Prue stood in the doorway.

The magical beings exchanged looks, all ready knowing the answer everyone had in mind; there was none.

30 Minutes Later----

"You know, I've been wondering something, Leo..." Paige said, slowly.

Leo cocked a brow. "What is it, Paige?"

Paige wrinkled her nose, as she measured a cup of water. "Why have Prue and Phoebe gotten power advancements, while Piper and I haven't in years?"

Piper, overhearing the conversation, quickly jumped in. "Oh no, no, no, no, no!" She shook her head. "See now, 'power advancements' are just a messy thing around here, Paige. All they do is cause trouble and have you risk exposure. I, for one, would not care one bit for a 'power advancement'."

"Easy for you to say." Paige pouted. "Did you see my counterpart? She has wicked cool powers!" She rolled her brown eyes. "Besides, big ears, I was talking to your husband." Her eyes returned to her brother-in-law. "So?"

Leo pulled up a chair, taking a seat next to Paige. "Well, sometimesand let me say that it is rare, the most powerful witches in the world go a long time without power advancements."

Paige looked puzzled.

"It's like a magical seismic gap." Leo explained.

"Yeah." Paige replied, waving her hand in a reversing motion. "Please rewind and start over, I'm not following."

"Seismic gaps are large periods of time where a place goes without earthquakes, paticularly on a fault like, like the San Andres. The energy in under the specified location grows to such a massive amount that it eventually causes a monumental earthquake. It's sometimes the same for very powerful witches, but it's rare. They are just so powerful that they don't obtain anymore powers, until their magical buildup is too strong, and it 'explodes' into a new power." Leo glanced at his wife. "No pun intended."

"Maybe that's why Piper got her power so much later than Prue or I did?" Phoebe asked, as she trotted into the kitchen. "Hi." She laughed. "Prue and I were eavesdropping from the other room."

"Phoebe!" Prue hissed, as she came in behind her little sister. "We, uh, we weren't really 'eavesdropping', per say.." Prue stumbled.

Piper shook her head, waving her sisters off. "Yeah, yeah." She returned her attention to the previous conversation. "Well, look. It's not gonna happen with us, honey. I mean, come on. I've got all the powers I need and frankly, I don't need anymore."

"Starting earthquakes wouldn't be nice?" Paige quipped.

"No!" Piper grumbled, as toaster behind her exploded. "Ooh.."

Alternate Paige orbed in. "Trust me, she would not be happy with it, at first. At least, my Piper wasn't. She accidently released the Woogy and it was just a big ol' mess."

"The Woogy?" Paige asked.

"Long story." Phoebe replied, waving her baby sister's question away. She didn't want to have to think about that monster.

"Oh poo on you." Paige muttered. She spun the other way.

Phoebe glanced up to see orbs forming above her head and she ducked out of the way, as the little box fell right where she had been standing. "Paige!"

Paige spun around. "What?" She asked, as the acrid smell of the litter box that desperately needed to be changed, caught her nostrils. "Whoa!"

Phoebe angrily pointed to the ground, plugging her nose with her free hand. "You actually wanted to..."

"I didn't mean to, I swear!" Paige said, waving her hand and orbing the litter box just outside of the kitchen where it had been before she accidently called for it.

Alternate Paige clicked her tongue. "Look, is that potion doing okay?"

"Yeah." Paige replied, as the pot bubbled over. "No.."

Piper rolled her eyes. "I'll handle this. Go, go, go." She said, shooing everyone out of the kitchen.


Alternate Paige orbed into the attic, to find Glenn glancing through the Book. "Glenn?"

Glenn glanced up, smiling. "Uh.."

"Ms. Matthews." Alternate Paige replied.

"Ms. Matthews." Glenn said, awkwardly. "Did you need something?"

Alternate Paige shook her head. "N-no..I just came to clear my head. But you're already here, so.."

"No, really, it's okay. I'll leave." Glenn rolled his pure eyes. "I can't really do anything around here anyway."

"That's not true." Alternate Paige countered. "You do a lot. I mean, I'm sure you do a lot."

Glenn shrugged. "Paige just seems to be so irritated with me, especially these last few years."

"All couples have their problems. We..Uh, in my world, we did..My Glenn and I."

"So, you're not together?"

"Nah. He married some woman that he really loved."

"I couldn't imagine getting married to someone else."

Alternate Paige laughed. "Me neither. But it happened and...well...it was for the best. I finally met someone that I really love." She placed a hand over her pregnant stomach, deciding not to talk about how that person left her or how she wasn't really sure if her kids were actually the heirs to Atlantis or half darklighter.

"Good for you."

"But trust me, if your Paige is anything like me, her angry words don't mean a thing. We have our days, you know? But at the end of the day, we always go back to the one we love."

"Thanks." Glenn said, feeling as though thousands of pounds had been lifted from his chest.

"No problem." Alternate Paige looked at the door. "Now what do you say we go down there and kick some demonic hybrid ass?"

"Sounds perfect." Glenn agreed, as he looped arms with his newfound friend, and they made their way out of the attic.
