Chapter 1: A New Destiny

Premonition

"Chris..please." A woman with long black hair and heart shaped face pulled on Chris's sleeve.

"I'm sorry Bella." Chris looked away breathing hard, blinking away the tears in his eyes.

"Don't leave me like he did." She whispered, turning him around to face her.

"How can this work?" He ran a hand through his hair while looking down at her.

"Piper and Leo did it." Bella explained, flailing her arms about.

"Not without repercussions." He whispered shaking his head.

"Chris please...I love you. I know that in my heart that I love you more than anything in this word."

"Bella.." Chris caressed Bella's cheek as she closed her eyes.

Present time

Phoebe POV

"Phoebe what is it?" I looked over at Paige who was holding baby Chris. "I don't know. I saw Chris in the future with a woman." Piper who was still in the hospital bed cocked her head to the side. "Is she trying to kill him?" I shook my head sitting in the chair. "No, they're in love. I think she's his charge. In my vision, this..Bella person told Chris that you two made a relationship work."

"Well there's a reason you've had this vision but why?" I shrugged while Piper took a hold of Chris and smiled down at him. "Already getting into messes aren't we?" I smiled and Leo sat watching. I walked over to him and laid my hand on his shoulder. "You did good Leo." He smiled up at me and patted my hand. "I know." He smiled.

Opening the door for Piper, she sat Chris down in the living room. I walked into the sun room to see an elder standing in the middle of the room. "Ah, there you are young Phoebe, the witch I was hoping to see. Where's Leo?" I shook my head, raising my hand and shaking my finger. "No, no, no. This is so not the time. Piper and Leo just made it home with baby Chris and I want a damn break." I sat heavily in the chair as everyone filled into the room. "Well Phoebe this is about your vision." I cocked my head to the side. "How do you know about my vision?" The elder laughed and sat on the couch. "I'm the one that sent it to you of course. Bella Swan is the girl in your vision. She is a half witch, half white lighter and she needs help." Paige raised a brow and glared. "Well, why can't another white lighter take care of it?" Leo stood suddenly standing in front of us with that 'ah ha' expression on his face. God I hated when he did that, because that means there was something else for us to do.

"Wait Swan? As in 'The Swan'?" The elder nodded. "I thought the first Swan already had its generational time and will not move on until..Chris's...time. It skipped a generation didn't it? 'The Swan' is ready for her powers now?" The elder nodded again, looking at us all. "You see, you are the Charmed One's. Three of you. 'The Swan' is one woman who brings peace to the magical community. She is just as powerful with you three combined. When Chris was with his lover, Bianca, he met Bella Swan then. She was born 18 years early than planned. Her Swan family was cursed by a family of demons and having 'The Swan' born early was a way of ridding the good in the magical realm. Chris came to you to save his future, but when he died.." He was cut off by Piper's exclamation, "Died?! What are you talking about?" The elder's eyes widened and he shook his head. "Calm Piper. He's fine in the future, back in his own time. I meant before he physically made it back to his own world." Piper looked to Leo. "Before Chris was born, his older self was shot when the SWAT team came through, I was late getting here and I was unable to heal him." Leo looked down, his fist clenching.

"As I was saying, when he died, he's thrust back into his own time without the wold being as it should as Bella is 18 years away of fixing everything. There is a prophecy you see. You all play a large part in this girl's life. Piper and Leo, you are like the parents she never had, and Piper you're someone that takes care of her. Paige and Phoebe, you two are like the sisters she never had. You bore the child that complete's 'The Swan'. Bella is a kind-hearted girl with a big heart, but for the right reasons, she is susceptible to the influence of evil. While you are great role models, she needs a balance. While you provide that balance of not only good and free will, Chris hold the light at the end of the tunnel. My fellow brethren are against bringing young Chris back and Bella meeting Chris before the 18 year mark as they fear she is not ready and that time should still proceed, but I fear for both good and evil that the world will turn to chaos. She needs guidance. I am on your side here. If you all are willing to take on a young witch, I will help you. If not, I will proceed back to heaven and let this go. The choice is yours."

I took a deep breath while we all sat in silence. "Piper?" I looked to her for assistance. "Why me?" I snorted and Paige looked at Piper. "Well this is your son and his supposed soul mate?" She asked, looking to the elder. "Well yes." "I say we do it, if not for the future, but for my nephew to be happy. Wait, my vision, Bella tells Chris to not leave her like 'he' did. What does she mean?" "She has to share her story." I hummed and nodded. "So are we doing this?" I asked looking at my sisters. They nodded and the elder smiled. "Now, for the sake of us all, you cannot interfere in their emotional lives. While Chris may not be so inclined to date, Bella is female and you must let her know that falling for your white lighter is forbidden. This has to be as if this is normal. You must not interfere in her lovers." "She sounds like you already Phoebe." Piper smirked and I rolled my eyes. "Ok, so no interfering. Got it. Anything else?" Paige asked. "No. If my calculations are correct, Leo you should be hearing her call for help and Phoebe, Paige, and I will get Chris back here." "Wait, what about me?" Piper asked. The elder turned to her like she was crazy. "Well you go relax and take care of your kids. I'm not heartless Piper." He chuckled. "Huh...right." She made a move to kiss Leo, and he looked up as if listening.

"Just what kind of danger is she in? She's screaming." He winced and orbed out. We all looked to the elder. "She's going to be okay right?" I asked. I could sense his worry as he nodded. "If Leo gets there in time yes."

AN: Alright Chapter 1 is done and I hope you enjoyed it. Chapter 3 of "It's a Winchester Thing" will be up tomorrow as well as Chapter 5 of "The Lakefield Estate." I might be posting a new story, but it depends. Until next time.
