I don't own anything except for the stuff I made up.
Some people caught my some mistakes so I rewrote some details. Enjoy!
I'm not really sure about some facts so I'm either gonna guess or make them up. I was a fan of charmed since before s3 so u guess that's why I like Prue.
I'm still debating if I should make Sam Buffy's father or not. Again, open to any suggestions.
I'm going to make Paige a friend of the Halliwell family, maybe a distant cousin. I'm making her a gypsy so she can have some part in magic. She and Buffy are too different to be twins, so I'm not going to make them twins. If I include Darryl, I'm going to make him a good guy cause I like him. Dawn was supposedly made from Buffy, and the monks thought Buffy's real parents were Joyce and Hank, so Dawn's going to really be made from Joyce, capish?
I really hope you don't mind me killing Phoebe, but they are both really similar and it would make them too powerful if there was a power of 4 with one witch as a slayer. I think Leo would understand Buffy being a slayer since Leo is usually very understanding. The sisters also never listen to the Elders just like Buffy never listened to the Council, so they have that in common.
Chapter 4
"Hi, I might look a little different when you last saw me. I was known as charmed baby. Does that sound familiar?" I asked Sister Agatha. "I was here about 22 years ago, on Christmas Eve of 1982 (a/n the year now is 2004)."
Sister Agatha thought for a moment, and then smiled and said, "Oh yes, I remember you now. You came here when I first became a nun. I remember your parents came down here in a swirl of bright lights, angels. It was so beautiful and if I didn't know better, I'd say your parents were angels. They said you'd come looking for them one day, and they wanted me to give you something. I've saved it; it's in the back. Follow me."
Paige and I quietly followed her into the back. I was nervous but I could tell Paige was pleased we found something.
"Here," Sister Agatha said, giving me a box, "I'm sorry but I'm supposed to be in the hospital in about 20 minuets. I would love for you to come back and talk. Come back tomorrow, I'm free all day. I want to tell you everything I can about your parents."
"Sure, we'll see you then"
I opened it and found a baby's dress, a blanket, a stuffed teddy bear, and a letter. The dress was white with little blue ribbons on the bottom and around the collar. The blanket was made of the softest cashmere I had ever felt. I'm guessing it's a baby blanket; maybe it was mine. The bear looks like someone made it at one of those build a bear workshops. (That's what it's called, right?) It had light brown fur and was wearing a red velvet dress with a matching bow. But the letter is what got me the most.
Dear Daughter,
My name is Patricia Halliwell, and I am your mother. I won't tell you who your father is; I'll let you figure that out for yourself. This is very difficult for me to write. I just want you to know that we loved you so much and we didn't want to give you up, but we did. We had to for your safety. It may seem like I'm just making excuses, but it's the truth.
I suppose I should tell you about your family. You have three older half sisters, all wonder girls, or women now. I hope you will find them and love them. They don't know about you, but I'm sure the four of you will love each other. Your Grams is Penny Halliwell; she raised your sisters. Find her and you will find your sisters (remember Penny isn't dead when this is written)
In our family, all the family members have names that start with P. I don't know if your name does or does not, but I would have like to name you Peyton, it means warrior. I'm sure you are a strong and beautiful warrior.
I don't know if you are familiar with the mystical world or not. If you are not, you should know that there really is one. I may sound crazy, but I'm telling the truth. Your sisters are witches, the Charmed Ones. They are the most powerful good witches. You are also a witch, probably even more powerful that your sisters are. Please keep an open mind and expect the unexpected.
I don't know if I'll be alive or not when you get this. If I am, I hope to see you again as soon as possible. If I'm not, I want you to meet your sisters. The four of you are my entire world and remember I love you more than you can imagine. I wish I knew you and I wish there weren't so many things I don't know, but live your life to the fullest. Seize the day, Carpe Diem (a/n remember Buffy said this to Willow when they first met? )
With all my love,
Patricia
(a/n I know the letter was kind of sappy, but I wasn't sure what to write. I guess it should be longer but oh well.)
"Wow, I guess my mother really did love me, or so she says. I wonder what my name would've been if Patricia raised me. Maybe Peyton or something like that." I said, handing the letter to Paige, "She said I have three older half sisters, but she won't tell me who my fathers is. It would really help but I guess I'm just happy I found out who my mother is."
"Well that's good right, you did say you wanted sisters. We'll find out who your father was, don't worry about that," said Paige while reading the letter, "Hmm, she also talked about magic and witches. Are you a witch?"
"Umm… I don't know… I don't think so. I haven't really tried any spells or anything like that. You don't believe in that stuff, do you?" I said uncertainly. My mind was wondering why is Paige so calm about this, is she a witch? Does she know that I'm about slayers? Is she a Wicca like Willow and Tara are? If she is, she and Willow totally have to meet sometime. Maybe Paige can visit the Hellmouth; oh wait, I destroyed it. Maybe she can go to the one in Cleveland or the one in Rome.
"Oh, well yeah. I know you're familiar with the mystical world, I can feel it in your aura." Paige said causally, as if we were deciding what to have for lunch.
"Oh, ok. Whew. I'm kinda glad you know about the mystical world. Anyways, how do you know about the mystical world? You're not a demon or anything are you" I asked slowly.
"No, of course I'm not a demon. I'm a gypsy actually, I used to be part of a clan but the only one of us left are me and Ava. Ava was in total denial until our aunt was killed. We don't really have any powers, but we can do spells and make potions. If we practice, we should also be able to see the future through tealeaves or a crystal ball or something like that. I'm still practicing, but I think I'm getting there. Hey, how do you know about the mystical world?" Paige asked accusingly.
"My friends Willow and Tara (let's say Tara's still alive and Willow didn't turn evil) were both Wicca. My old teacher was a part of a gypsy clan actually, but she died thanks to this evil guy. Anyways, you should meet Willow and Tara sometime." I said, leaving out the part where I was a slayer, Giles was my watcher, Anya was an ex demon, Spike and Angel were vampires, and all the other stuff.
"Oh that's so cool, do they have a whitelighter?"
"I don't think so, what's a whitelighter?"
"It's usually a person who's done a lot of good in his or her life, then when that person dies, they become whitelighter. They're then immortal and usually guide witches and they can heal."
"Hmm... I don't think Willow or Tara have one, why do you think that is?"
"I don't know, maybe they cause they're Wicca? My friend is the kind of witch that has powers like freezing time or moving objects with her mind. Also, some witches don't have whitelighters if they have something else protecting them. I'm not really familiar with the whole concept."
"Oh, ok" Guess that's why Willow and Tara never had a whitelighter, they had me instead.
"Oh, by the way, I have to introduce you to my friend Piper. She's the one who's been helping practice seeing the future. She owns this really great club called P3; we should definitely go sometime. Piper's a witch, and her sisters, or sister now. One of them, Phoebe just died, it was really sad. I'm not really friends with her, she was in New York when Piper and I became friends. I'm going to her funeral. It's tomorrow at nine, you can come if you want, but you don't have to. Funny thing is, none of us are sure how she died cuz there was this whole time laps thing. I think she was killed by a demon, but the details are really vague. Her other sister Prue is a photographer. You have to meet Darryl too, he is a cop and the two of us help cover up the mysterious cases involving witches. He can help you find Patricia." Paige said excitedly, "Maybe you and Piper are really sisters, wouldn't that be awesome? She can teach you some magic and all that good stuff. Ha, listen to me babbling about something that isn't even true."
Hmm... I thought it would be so cool if Paige's friends were really my sisters. Now about that demon attack, does that have anything to do with the dream I had last night. It would be a strange coincidence, but then again, nothing is coincidence for me. Oh well, I'll figure it out some other time. I'm really hungry right now. Maybe I should've eaten more for breakfast like Paige said.
"Sure, sounds like a plan. I guess I can come to the funeral, as long as I'm not imposing or anything like that. Anyways, I'm starving now, do you wanna stop and have lunch?" I asked.
Paige just stared at me with an I told you that you should've eaten more breakfast look. Her look could've rivaled Willow's any day. Hell, it could've even rivaled my mom's.
"Sure, why not? I'm kinda hungry too. Let's go to Quake, it's kinda fancy but it has the best food. It was better when Piper worked there but it's still really good,"
"Let's go then," I said. I was in a really good mood, especially since I just agreed to go to a stranger's funeral.
Laughing, the two of us got into the car and drove to the Quake.
A/N Next chapter, Buffy meets Piper! I'm trying to update more, but it's getting harder to write. I think it'll be basically a new chapter each week on Sunday or Monday. I don't want this story to be one that starts out good but then gets really dragged out and boring. If it does, I apologize in advance. I'm open to any suggestions. I'm also still debating whether to make it BA or not. R&R plz! XD
