AN: Thanks to all who reviewed. I hope that I can continue to write these chapters quickly. I like this story thus far so I hope my muse lets me actually finish a story!

Chapter 2: Where are we?

The graveyard was peaceful in the evening. Cars could be heard in the distance, but in the center of the cemetery was complete silence. The silence of the evening had been suddenly broken by a man falling from the sky. The tall dark curly haired man quickly picked himself up off the ground and hurried away despite appearing to be injured. He ran off trying to hide himself behind the very large tombstones. Not more than a minute after the man fell out of the sky, three women fell out of the sky in a similar fashion. They hit the ground hard, but couldn't pick themselves off the ground as quickly as the man before them.

"Oww. That hurt! Piper you're sitting on my leg," Phoebe said howling in pain. Piper apologized and quickly got up.

"Oh that is so gonna leave a bruise," Piper said feeling her butt. "Well at least we don't have to worry about Prue." Prue was already standing and had her jeans dusted off and was looking around for the man they came after… Mittwoch. Prue pulled back her hair into a ponytail and fixed her bangs and was ready to work.

"He couldn't have gotten far." Prue said looking around for him.

"Yeah except we don't know where we are." Phoebe mentioned. Piper still rubbing her sore butt was looking around to see if she recognized anything.

"Well we know we're in a graveyard, but we don't know where. Are we still in San Francisco?" Piper asked as the girls looked around for something familiar, but could find nothing.

"Okay! We can't just stand around while Mittwoch walks around free so we'll try to figure out where we are or when we are and then see if there is a magic shop around here and finish our potion. We'll find him and vanquish him and hopefully be able to see the Port du Mach to get home." Prue finished taking a deep breath. Phoebe and Piper just starred at her.

"Sounds good to me," Piper said and as Phoebe quickly agreed they had a plan. The girls started walking out of the graveyard. Piper was the first to notice a young blond girl fighting some guy. The girls hid behind one of the larger tombstones to watch.

"She's really good. Wonder who she is fighting?" Phoebe asked admiring her.

Prue was not as impressed, "That could be an innocent."

"I don't think that is an innocent, Prue. Look at his face." Piper pointed out that the man the blond was fighting had a messed up face and looked like a vampire.

"Is she a witch?" Phoebe asked whispering into Prue's ear. She didn't know, but was willing to wait and find out.

"Shouldn't we help her?" Piper asked and before anyone could answer another vampire was face to face with the Charmed sisters. All three gave a high pitched scream and started to run away.

They backed away, but held hands and were prepared with the power of three spell that would take care of a meager vampire or at least they hoped it would. They kept taking a step back further and further back. Their backs were soon stopped by a tree. The sisters took a deep breath, but before they could start the spell the vampire looked surprised right before he fell to dust. They were now face to face with the blond woman they had seen fighting before.

Phoebe just smiled while her two sisters glared almost. "Hi. Was that a vampire by any chance?" Phoebe asked innocently.

The blond looked awkwardly at the wooden stake in her hand and quickly hid it behind her back. "No… that was just a… bad man… that I… chased off," she stuttered out.

"So that was a vampire?" Piper asked.

"Argh, I suck at lying. Yep. Now that he's gone you should really go home." The blond quickly turned around started walking away. The sisters looked at each other and then at her and for some reason started to follow her.

"We saw you fighting the other one. You were amazing. I have been studying martial arts for years, but I am no where near as good as you." Phoebe said as the blond turned around to face them.

"Who are?" she asked.

"We might ask you the same question. I mean it's not every day that you find a blond chick fighting demons and vampires in a graveyard." Prue said in an almost confrontational tone.

"You know that there are demons and vampires. You know they exist." The blond sounded surprised.

"We're witches." Phoebe said. Piper and Prue immediately glared at her. "What? I think we can trust her and we have to trust someone otherwise we'll never get anywhere and Mittwoch will escape," she argued.

"You're witches. Really." She said surprised.

"Yes we are. I'm Prue, this is Piper and the giddy one over there is Phoebe and we are the Charmed ones." The blond just starred at her not able to speak. "You don't believe us."

"It's not that. It's just there are few real witches I know. How do I know you are the real thing and not just a bunch of wanna blessed bes."

"Are you a witch?" Piper asked and to this the blond chuckled.

"Oh no. I'm not, but my friend Willow is and she is one powerful wicca. I'm the Slayer." To this the sisters just starred blankly at her. "Argh, what is the use of saving the world if a bunch of witches don't know who I am."

"What is a 'Slayer'?" Prue asked.

"Well I am the chosen one to hunt and kill demons, vampires, and the forces of darkness. There is only one in the world well actually there are two, but that is a long story. I'm Buffy."

"Well Buffy we need to find a way to stop a warlock we followed here. Can you help us?" Prue asked.

"Me maybe, but Giles will be a better person to ask. I will take you to him, but first." She looked around and went running when she found what she was looking for. Buffy helped pick up a guy and a girl who were lying in the bushes. "Are you okay you two?" Buffy asked.

The guy hopped on one foot as her friend helped him up. "I'm fine. Just a little bruised. You alright there Willow?" he asked the red head next to him. The sisters looked at the petite red head and whispered in surprise, "she's a powerful wicca?"

"Oh wow… the world's all spinny."

The sisters walked over to where the three friends were recovering. Xander was leaning on another large tombstone while Willow was sitting on a shorter one. The two didn't noticed the three women standing in front of them. "Man Buff those guys were tough." Xander said. Willow pulled a few strains of hair behind her ear and took a deep breath.

"It's okay. We'll head back to the Magic Box and get you two cleaned up," Buffy said.

"Who are you?" Xander asked.

"Hello. I'm Phoebe and these are my sisters Prue and Piper."

"They are witches." Buffy said. To this Willow perked up and smiled.

"Really… you're really witches." To this the girls nodded. Then there was a growl from behind the resting Xander and Willow as another vampire appeared. Buffy was about to punch him and rescue her friends when Piper screamed and the vampire blew up before them.

Xander, Willow, and Buffy stood with their mouths dropped in surprise. They couldn't believe what they had seen. Piper just smiled at the fact that she hadn't hurt anyone and actually saved them.

"See I told you, you can control your power," Phoebe said nudging her in the arm. Prue just told her to hush.

"Okay so we see that they really are witches, but are they good?" Xander asked Buffy.

"Oh we are so good witches. Otherwise we'd just use our power on you," Prue said as Xander took a step back nervously. Willow and Buffy just chuckled.

"Easy there Xand. Where are you from?" Buffy asked.

"We're from San Francisco. Where are we?"

"You're in Sunnydale CA." Willow said.

The sisters just looked at each other puzzling. "I think we're in an alternate dimension, b/c I have never heard of a Sunnydale CA." Prue said.

"Even if you are from an alternate dimension, what are you doing here?" Xander asked.

"We came here chasing a warlock named Mittwoch. We need your help. Will you please help us defeat him?" Phoebe asked.

Xander and Willow looked to Buffy for an answer. "I guess. Let's get to the Magic Box and get these two fixed up and then we'll go looking for your warlock." Buffy stated.

"What is a Magic Box?" Prue asked before her sisters agreed to go.

"It's a magic shop. Ready?" Buffy replied.

The sisters agreed and the whole gang set off to the Magic Box. Meanwhile the warlock Mittwoch had been listening in to their whole conversation and as he was about to follow them he had a bag placed over his head and was bound and dragged off.

AN: Please review. I am at work and it's so boring, I decided to write a chapter. I just wrote a chapter in like a little less than an hour and a half. Wow. That is like a record. I hope that you are enjoying my story thus far. I'm hoping to keep this up with a new chapter every week at least, but with this research paper looming over my head that may get difficult. I am so tired. There isn't enough caffeine to help out of this rough. Need sleep but can't have it yet. At least I'm making money while I'm writing this story. I'm not making any money off this story just making money while I write the story. The pro side to having a crappy desk job. ENJOY!
