Gothic Spook: Thank you for your review! Sorry it took me a while to get this next chapter up. I'm glad you like it! If you ever have any questions about anything in the Dead Zone area of the story, let me know and I'll do my best to explain.
Superfan: Thank you for your review! And as for what would happen if Phoebe and Johnny shake hands, that's actually one of the main reasons for adding Dead Zone into the mix.
Chapter 2
"I can't believe we're finally here," Phoebe said to herself as her and her family checked in at the hotel in Florida. She had been looking forward to this vacation ever since she had that vision about four years ago.
--FLASHBACK--
When Phoebe walked in the door of Halliwell manor after saying goodbye to the agents at the airport, she felt that familiar jolt.
Phoebe was standing and talking to Mulder, Scully, Doggett, and Reyes.
They were at some hotel.
Phoebe was holding tickets for a cruise ship.
So were the agents.
Phoebe smiled. She would see her friends again. She didn't know when, but sure enough, she would see them again.
--END FLASHBACK--
It turned out that that time was now. In less than an hour, her vision would come true. The sooner they got situated in their room, the sooner she would get to see her friends again.
"Come on," she said excitedly, starting to get a little impatient. "Let's go."
"What's gotten into her?" Chris asked his mother.
Piper just smiled and shook her head. The only other time she had ever seen Phoebe like this was that time that they dealt with the fairies...when a little girl had sprinkled fairy dust on Prue and Phoebe, causing them to act like kids.
"So, we finally get to meet the legendary Charmed Ones," Frohike said. Whenever the agents had been in San Francisco investigating a strange supernatural virus, they had asked the Lone Gunmen to look up some information on the Halliwells. That is how they initially found out about the Halliwells being the Charmed Ones.
Reyes nodded. "From what they said the last time that I talked to them, they should be here by now."
As if on cue, they heard a knock at the door. Reyes walked forward to answer the door. When she opened it, she was greeted by an ecstatic Phoebe. She had to laugh.
"I'll go get the Mulder and Doggett," Scully said. Mulder and Doggett were still in their own hotel room. While they had all gotten adjoining rooms, they had yet to make their way to the girls' room. The only reason the Lone Gunmen were there already, was because they were interested to meet the Halliwells.
"Come on in," Reyes said. After Phoebe had gone inside, Reyes had to ask. "Where's everyone else?"
"They'll be over. They're currently unpacking."
"You're done already ?"
"I didn't even bother. The cruise ship leaves tomorrow afternoon. It doesn't really even make sense to unpack."
"Hi," Mulder said as he, Scully, and Doggett walked in.
"So," Reyes began. "There's one thing I wanted to ask you about."
"What's that?" Phoebe asked.
"Well, one time when we talked you had said that you had a boyfriend, Cole. Then, you didn't talk about him for a while. Two years ago, you said that you and Cole got engaged. After that, you never talked about him again. What happened?"
"It's a long story."
"Well, did you ever get married?" Scully asked.
"Yeah, we did get married. It lasted for a few months, things got really complicated, and we got a divorce."
"I'm sorry," Reyes said.
"I'm over it now. It just wasn't meant to be. That's all. So, what about you guys? Anything interesting happen since the last time we talked?" She had already worked through all of her 'issues' resulting from the Cole saga. She didn't want to have a relapse of everything.
Taking the hint that she didn't want to talk about it, they let the subject drop.
"Being that the last time we talked was yesterday, no, nothing happened," Reyes replied.
After a few moments of uncomfortable silence, they heard another knock at the door. Mulder got up to answer the door, and stepped aside to let everyone in.
"Now for some introductions," Phoebe said. "All of you know Piper and Darryl. Standing next to Piper is her husband Leo, who is also our whitelighter, and my nephew Chris, who is holding my other nephew Wyatt. Next to Chris is Paige. Next to Darryl is his wife Sheila and his son Darryl Jr.," she introduced, pointing to each person as she spoke. Then, she turned her attention to her family and introduced the agents.
"Nice to meet you," Reyes stated.
Mulder then introduced the Lone Gunmen.
"If you don't mind my asking, how can Chris be your nephew when he is an adult, and what is a whitelighter?" Doggett asked in confusion.
"Well," Phoebe said, trying to figure out the best way to explain. "Technically speaking, Piper is currently pregnant with Chris." At seeing the blank, unbelieving looks, she further explained. "The Chris that you see standing here came from the future. He came here to help us stop Wyatt from becoming evil." While the agents somewhat accepted that explanation, she could see that they were still slightly skeptical.
Moving on, Phoebe started to explain what whitelighters were. "Whitelighters are basically guardian angels over good witches and future whitelighters."
"How exactly does someone become a whitelighter," Mulder asked, interested.
"When someone dies, someone that helped a lot of people in their lifetime, they are trained and then assigned to charges," Leo explained.
"Right," Scully said skeptically. "So you're saying that you died already."
Leo hesitantly nodded his head in confirmation.
Mulder, however, had a different reaction than Scully. He full out believed that, without a doubt, Leo had been telling the truth. "So, how'd you die?"
"In World War II."
Everyone but Scully and Doggett seemed to accept the explanations without question. Scully and Doggett, on the other hand, were baffled. They weren't sure that they fully believed it, but they figured it was easier to just accept it no matter how ludicrous it seemed.
"So, who's up for going to the beach?" Paige cut in.
With that, everyone went back to their hotel rooms to get ready to go and relax on the beach.
A/N: Well, that's it for chapter two. I know things aren't too interesting yet, but it will start to get more interesting next chapter. Sorry for the long wait. I've decided to try something new since school will be starting soon...I can't believe it...only a week and a half of freedom left...(tear). Anyways, I am going to start setting deadlines for myself. Chapter three should be up by next Friday, the 20th. As always, hope you liked it!
