AN- Hey! I'm back! Thanks to all my reviewers! I'm introducing a new character in this chapter so please let me know what you think!

"AAAARGH!!!"
A sudden high pitch scream pierced the air. The Charmed Ones spun around in shock, only to find Luna taking out her mobile phone. Shooting an amused look at Kyle and trying to stifle her giggles, she flipped open the phone. Glancing at the name on the small flashing screen, she accepted the call.
"Hey, Quinn! Yeah, I'm not dead. I know! I totally thought she was gonna kill me too! Yeah, they know about Spirit. They know about Kyle as well. I know! That guy sucks at subtlety! Wait, slow down. What sort of problem? WHAT?! Well, tell the leprechauns that if they think that they can do a better job at building an army, they can be my guests! What do you mean they're refusing to talk to anyone but me?! Right... Fine, I'll be there as soon as I can. Yes, I'm bringing my sisters... No, your brother can't have Phoebe's number. I'm pretty sure she's not that desperate. I'll see you in a minute, bye."
Luna sighed and snapped her phone shut. Turning to Kyle, she quickly briefed him on the situation.
"The leprechauns are complaining again. Quinn's having a hard time dealing with it and needs us back at HQ pronto."
"Who's Quinn?" Asked Paige curiously. "A boyfriend?"
Luna swore she heard Prue growl at that comment.
"Quinn's one of my best friends. He saved my ass from a particularly nasty demon a few years ago." Luna answered, edging away from Prue slightly. "He's my right hand man. I trust him with my life."
"You have a HQ?" Asked Phoebe. "Where?"
"Of course we have a HQ, Pheebs. Did you think we just made battle plans in the back of a truck?" Said Luna, snorting at her big sister's naiveté.
Kyle glared at the youngest Halliwell.
"It's in another dimension." He answered, looking at Phoebe. "We had to hide it from evil. The only way to get there is with a spell or to Glimmer."
"You can Glimmer there?" Asked Piper, curiously. "How is that possible? Won't demons be able to Glimmer there too?"
Luna shook her head.
"Demons can't Glimmer. It's a witch power and only good witches can use it. It's also pretty rare; actually I think I might be the only witch right now that can do it."
Piper still looked confused.
"But how can you Glimmer to another dimension?"
"Glimmering isn't like orbing." Explained Kyle. "It can be used to travel to different dimensions and times."
"I'm not that skilled at it yet." Interrupted Luna. "I can travel to a few dimensions, but I can't do time travel. It's not a very easy power to master, especially when there's no-one to teach you."
The Charmed Ones exchanged looks. They knew that their baby sister was a pretty kick-ass witch, but they had had no idea about the amount of power she was carrying around. It was a good thing she was fighting for them!
"Right then!" Exclaimed Prue, quickly taking charge. "Are we using the spell, or are we Glimmering?"
Luna thought for a moment.
"We should probably Glimmer. It'll be quicker."
She looked at her Whitelighter and waited for his input. Kyle nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, Glimmering would be better. You need to make sure that someone tells your sisters the spell though, just in case they need to get to HQ and you're not around."
Luna turned to face her sisters and flashed her trademark mischievous grin.
"OK, everyone grab on! I just know that you're gonna love Glimmering!"
And without leaving a second for her sisters to object, she disappeared in cloud of gold dust, taking the Charmed Ones along for the ride.
.............................................................................................
They re-appeared in the middle of a huge hall. The older Halliwell sisters staggered round, trying to regain their balance. Luna burst into fits of giggles at the sight.
"S-sorry! I f-forgot h-how d-disorientating G-glimmering c-can b-be!" She stammered, attempting to control her laughter.
While Luna tried to contain her giggles, the Charmed Ones gazed at their surroundings in awe. A massive circular table occupied most of the room, but that's not what caught the witches' eyes. At the centre of the table, an enormous ancient tree grew. Its trunk reached the ceiling and the branches were spread as far as the sisters could see. The leaves varied in colour. Some were a stunning bright green, while others were a deep rich red. It was like someone had painted every individual leaf a different shade. Colourful orbs hung from the twisted branches. On closer inspection, the sisters could see that the orbs seemed to show different places in the world. Kyle, following their gaze, decided to explain.
"That's the Watching Tree." He said, coming up behind them. "It's almost as old as the Tree of Knowledge. It can show us memories and events from the past, present and sometimes even the future."
"It's basically a bigger, greener and more eco-friendly version of Phoebe." Quipped Luna.
Phoebe stuck her tongue out at the baby Halliwell.
"Well at least I'm portable!" She said, jokingly.
The five sisters and the Whitelighter laughed at Phoebe's comment.
"So true." Said Paige, slinging her arm round her big sister's shoulder.
A sudden crash rang through the hall as the large double doors swung open. A young man entered and started to jog towards them.
"Lu! Thank God! Where the hell have you been?!" The young man exclaimed. "You sure took your sweet time!"
Luna rolled her eyes.
"Sorry guys, please excuse Quinn. It's 'his time of the month' if you know what I mean. It tends to make him a tad irritable."
The Charmed Ones looked slightly confused and Quinn shot a glare at Luna.
"Don't listen to her." He said to the witches. "She means it's almost the full moon."
At the sisters' confused expressions he hastened to explain.
"Didn't Lu tell you? I'm a werewolf. A good one of course. I'm guessing she didn't tell you how I saved her life either. Now that is a good story!"
While the werewolf rambled on, Paige took the opportunity to take in his appearance. He was actually extremely good looking. His short, copper coloured hair was arranged in a messy, casual style. His eyes were an unusual blend of blue and green and they were lit up with a playful spark. He was wearing a pair of baggy jeans and a white t-shirt, somehow the plain attire just made him more attractive. He was well muscled but not overly and his soft Scottish accent almost floated in the air. Paige could see why Luna's face lit up every time she looked at him. Phoebe apparently agreed.
"I could do with a best friend like that!" She muttered quietly to Paige.
"You know, I haven't properly introduced myself yet! I'm Quinn Faolan. It's great to finally meet the Charmed Ones!" Said the werewolf.
"Faolan is Gaelic for wolf." Luna informed her sisters, after they had all given Quinn their names.
"You speak Gaelic?" Asked Prue, impressed.
"Nope," answered Luna. "I looked it up on the internet because I couldn't figure out why someone would call their child a name that sounds like a brand of soap."
Luna received more than one odd look at this comment.
"Don't deny it!" She said to Quinn.
Quinn just laughed at his best friend and dragged her over to the doors.
"C'mon, those leprechauns are still waiting for the mighty Spirit!" He exclaimed. "The one who will save us all!"
The two teenagers left the hall laughing. Leaving the Charmed Ones alone with Kyle. Paige and Phoebe exchanged looks.
"Best friend my ass!" Said Paige.
"I agree with that conclusion!" Phoebe yelled. "My empathy was picking up some pretty intense vibes!"
Prue growled, her big sister instincts kicking in.
"I think I'm going to have a chat with Mr Faolan." She said, her eyes flashing dangerously.
"Uh oh." Whispered Piper to Kyle. "Poor Quinn better watch out. Prue's on the warpath!"
