Ch. 1: Sarah
Growing up, Sarah always knew she was different from her mom, dad, two brothers and her sister. Sarah was four when she first noticed that she was different. It was her first day of preschool.
Four year old Sarah is at preschool and she gets annoyed at one of the kids who is being mean to her. She put up her hands to move the other kid's hands away and ended up blowing up a bookshelf behind them. All the kids in the preschool screamed when the bookshelf blew up, except for Sarah, who instead looked at her hands in shock. She wondered what had caused that and how she had done it.
A year later when she was five, Sarah started seeing and having the ability to talk to ghosts. One night, when Sarah was getting ready for bed when the ghost of Patty Halliwell appeared in her room.
"Hello my darling." Patty said with a smile
Sarah looked confused, "Who are you?"
"I'm Patty. Your biological mommy." Patty replied
Sarah nodded and asked, "Why'd you give me away?"
"I'm sorry, darling. I just couldn't protect you." Patty told the little girl, "I can't tell you why though, but someday you'll learn the truth."
"Are you really here?" Sarah asked
"No, darling I'm dead. I can't physically be here, but you can see me because you're a medium." Patty explained, "A medium is someone who can see and talk to ghosts."
Sarah nodded and smiled, "That's so cool."
"I'm afraid I have to go now." Patty said, "Blessed be my darling."
"Bye bye Mama Patty." Sarah stated before laying down in her bed and going to sleep.
That was the last time Sarah remembered anything out of the ordinary happening to her, and with age she's chalked all those memories up to being just her imagination. Little does she know that they're all very real and true memories.
Sarah is now a grown adult with three kids of her own: Amber, who is 16, Drew, who is 14, and Jessica, who is 8.
Sarah is having a barbecue at her parents' house when she notices that her youngest daughter, Jessica looks like she is talking to someone, possibly an imaginary friend, but Jessica is too old for imaginary friends.
"Jess!" Sarah called, "Come here please."
Jessica ran to her mom after saying goodbye to her friend. "What is it, Mama?"
"Jess, baby, who were you talking to?" Sarah asked
"Nobody, Mama." Jessica said as her mom gave her a look, "Okay, I was talking to my imaginary friend Hayley."
Sarah sighed. Hayley has been Jessica's imaginary friend ever since she could talk, "Jess, you're too old for imaginary friends."
Jessica sighed. She hated hearing those words, but she nodded anyway because she knew it was what her mom wanted, "Okay Mama." Then she asked, "Can I go play with Sydney?"
Sarah nodded, "Yes go play."
As Jessica ran off, Amber walked over to her mom who had a worried look on her face.
"Hey Mom, Jessy talking to her imaginary friend again?" Amber asked
Sarah nodded, "Yeah. I don't know how to make her understand that she is too old for imaginary friends."
"She'll grow out of it, Mom. I did and so did Drew." Amber replied
"I know but I still worry about her. Her imaginary friend is staying around longer than yours and Drew's did." Sarah stated
Meanwhile Jessica isn't playing with Sydney like she said. She is hiding behind a tree talking to her imaginary friend, Hayley, who was actually Jessica's white lighter. Hayley just makes herself invisible because for the time being, Jessica is the only one that needs to be able to see her.
"Hayley, what do you mean my Mommy is special?" Jessica asked
"She's related to four sisters who happen to be witches and as a group the five of them will make a strong coven of witches. They'll be known as the Charmed Ones - The Power of Five." Hayley explained
Jessica nodded, "Cool. So is my Mama their sister too?"
"Yes." Hayley replied, "Your mom's sisters are Prudence, Piper, Phoebe Halliwell, and Paige Matthews." Then she added, "When they're ready for your mom, she'll know where to find them and they'll know where to find her."
Jessica nodded, "Okay Hayley. Thanks."
"You're welcome, Jess." Hayley said, "Also, you'll know when it's your mom's time to help her sisters."
