Paige sat behind the desk in her room The Book of Shadows sitting on it along with another book beside it, Wicca for Beginners by Jonathan. It was a book that Leo had brought down from the magic school where the elders were, he had gotten many copies made and there was now one on each desk of the empty classroom around her along with an empty leather bound book with many pages.

"Okay Paige, relax, you can do this, you've fought the source for Christ sakes you can handle a classroom full of teenagers" she spoke to herself. "Teenage with magic and if they're anything like you who hate teachers and will probably try to humiliate you to no end on your first day but relax… okay this isn't working… ummm…LEO." About two seconds later a figure started to emerge from the blue and white orbs and her brother in law stood in front of her dressed once again in jeans and a flannel shirt. Unlike Paige who had to wear robes, she wore a pair of black slacks; a tight white v-neck shirt with her black robes that she left open, her red hair piled on top of her head, in what she hoped was professional enough, considering she never seemed to be able to hold a job.

"What is it Paige? Is something wrong?"

"I can't do this," she stated, standing up

"Sure you can Paige"

"No I can't… I couldn't stand school when I was a student and you expect me to teach and to teach kids with more powers that me," Paige was almost sure she was going to start hyperventilating.

"Paige you're great with kids" Leo started as the first bell rang giving the students notice they had 10 minutes to get to class. (Does Hogwarts have first bell? Do they have a bell? Well now they do :P) "You worked as a social worker for a reason, you're good with people and that includes kids"

"Okay first of all I was an assistant, second these are teenagers… okay, okay I'm calm I can do this" said Paige flipping back to normal.

"Good because I have to go back to Piper, she freaking out worse than you were and still is, so I'll be a little late to help you is that okay?" he asked as the first students began to filter in.

"Okay, I can do this"

"Good and just remember this first class, 6th year Gryffindor and Slytherin don't get along, so be ready," he said as he orbed out. 'Great' thought Paige as she watch three students walk in two boys and a girl, one boy with red hair, one with black and glasses and the girl with, bushy brown hair, an armful of books and a bag also looking to be overflowing with books. 'Mhmmm, I wonder, could those three be the charmed' Paige sat on the front of the desk and waited for the rest of the class to enter, which was three more student, a tall blonde boy with and two dopey looking goons beside him, all learning against the door not ready to enter as the last bell rang. "Okay boys, in or out and please shut the door either way" the three regarded Paige and entered kicking the door behind close before taking a seat.

"Good, now on each of your desks are two books, each you will be able to keep, the first is a text book that will aid you in learning this craft, the second is an empty book that you will write in, in my class as well as my sister's classes…"

"Sisters?" said a boy in the front row

"Yes sisters, Professors Piper and Phoebe Halliwell are my sisters… now you will use this book will become your Book of Shadows, its something every witch or wizard needs like this one" she said holding up the book, "Can anyone tell me what a Book of Shadows is? Yes… your name" she asked the girl close to the front whose hand shot up.

"Hermione Granger…a Book of Shadows is a place where witches or wizard write down spells, potion and information about creatures such as demons that is generally passed down through the generation to other who add to it as well. The Book of Shadows is generally only used by good and its equivalent is the Grimoire which evil uses" she finished, Paige was impressed

"Yes, Gryffindor right?" with her nod Paige continued, "5 point to Gryffindor, that is exactly it, you will write in this book, spells, potions and creatures you learn about and well as any of your our spells, which we will be doing very often, its up to you how you set it up. I won't collect it from you but will look at it; much of what you put in it will come from our book, one of the oldest and most complete."

"Why" hissed a voice from the back

"Why what Mr…"

"Malfoy, Draco Malfoy and why do we need to keep this why need to how do write spells, we have wands for a reason we don't need to learn this, it's not even really magic, you probably can't even do magic"

"Well Mr. Malfoy, you need to learn this because your wand magic doesn't work on demons, you need to protect yourself and learn to channel magic without a tool, a wand and trust me it's real magic and I can magic. I can take your wand from you without even moving," she said pointing to the wand twirling around in his fingers.

"Doubtful" was all he said holding on to his wand a little tighter

"Really" she asked whispering; 'Draco's wand' the moment she did his wand disappeared from his hand and materialized in hers. Draco's mouth dropped in shock; Paige stood and walked to Draco, placing his wand down on his desk she walked back to the front of the room. "5 points off of Slytherin for Mr. Malfoy's rather rude and interruptive behaviour, now perhaps we can actually begin today's lesson we'll start with learning about the different materials some spells need to be preformed…" The lesson continued, by the end of the class she had gone briefly over different candles and organic matter that can be used. Demonstrating how if you cut an apple the right way the seeds in the middle form a pentacle, a sign once of good but now evil and with a Loral leaf placed over warded off evil and gave protection. She ended the by assigning them a spell to write, a summoning spell that would allow them to connect directly with the magical plan. She gave them an example using the one that Phoebe had read introducing Piper, Prue and her into the magical world and allowed the charmed ones to continue.

In this night and at this hour,

I call upon the ancient Power.

Bring your power to we sisters three.

We want the power. Give us the power.

Paige dismissed the class and watched as the class left, heading down to their potions class if they had it, she was surprised when Hermione Granger came up to her. "Professor Matthew, I was wondering, I have a Book of Shadows, similar to your, though nowhere near as complete, well actually its my mothers but she gave it to me and I was wondering if I should bring it in."

"That may be a good idea; I would defiantly like to see it."

"Okay" said Hermione as she left the room heading towards potions.

Harry and Hermione entered the common room, just coming from Potions to find Ron who had just come form Divination sitting on the couch. They had an hour and a half for lunch before their next class, which was Care of Magical Creatures; they had both Hagrid and the new Professor and were very excited to go to the class. Hermione sat down in "her chair" and Harry joined Ron on the couch.

"So how was Potions? Ron snickered.

"Shut up" was all Harry had to say

"Oh come on Harry, it wasn't that bad, I think that Snape is just more upset that he had some classes taken away then to be able to get mad, besides Ron still has potions. Just he's only taking them with Professor Matthew, remember we have a whole second term in that class just of potions, then next year, they might be having 7th year who didn't take Newts potions this year take regular potions next year, just to give them a little bit more of an advance knowledge of it, whether they really need it or not."

"How do you know this?" asked Harry

"McGonagall told me and Professor Matthew told us about class".

"That maybe true Hermione but its better than Snape" said Ron, "what did you guys think of that class" excitement in his eye, "did you see how she took Malfoy's wand"

"She orbed it," Hermione stated

"Sure she did, but the look on his face was priceless, that goes right up there with the bouncing ferret bit" he replied causing both Harry and Hermione to join him in his laughter at that memory. "Man I'm hungry, lets go down for lunch already." Harry and Hermione agreed running up to the dorms to exchange books and gather other items that they need before returning to the common room where Ron was waiting. They made their way down to the great hall but on the way they were about to turn around a corner when, peaking out from around the corner they saw Professor Matthew rushing down the hall towards her sisters and being who they are they felt that they just had to listen in.

"Piper, Phoebe you are not going to believe it, I think I found them"

"Paige? What? Found who?" asked Piper

"That charmed British group, that three that Leo and those guys" she added pointing up, "were telling us about, the two boys, one girl they were like super close and in the 6th, my first class …boy was that interesting" she muttered.

"Are you sure, Paige it's the first day, I mean to find them already" Piper wondered, things are never that easy.

"I'm sure"

"Maybe Pipe, she's really sure about that, like really sure, Paige your giving me a headache" Phoebe spoke up

"Would you stop with that reading thingy lady, it's freaky"

"Well sorry Paige its not like I can turn it off, and I don't much enjoy it either"

"Would you two stop" Piper started, "please we have enough to deal with, fine well all an eye out and on that group, who are they? What house are they in?"

"They're in Gryffindor, umm names, names, I think the girl is Herm….something Granger and boys don't really remember…umm one has red hair one black with glasses"

"That great Paige really informative, fine we'll keep an eye out" sighed Piper

"I have them next, with Hagrid"

"Yeah I have them afterwards" added Piper, "well check it out later, right know I'm going back to check on Wyatt" and before anyone could say anything else, Piper turned and left heading towards their room. The three listeners look at each other before running down the corridor towards the Great Hall just as Phoebe turns towards the general direction that the three just were.

"What is it?" Paige wondered at he sister's expression.

"It's just I had the strangest feelings, confusion and interest and fear, guilt and grief, grief that felt, buried as if it would just …go away".

"Do you know who it came from" Paige looked around the deserted halls, but no one was in sight.

"No" Phoebe replied, "It came from a few, I'm not sure how many but they're gone now"

Down the corridor, "Did you hear that, blimey, they were taking about us!" Ron exclaimed as all three of them tried to calm their breathing before entering the Great Hall to grab something for lunch

"No really Einstein, I never would have guessed if they didn't say my name, describe the two of you, tell our year and house, not to mention the whole 'three' thing…the question is what do they want?" Hermione questioned more to herself and the three of them put some sandwiches on their plates before sitting down at the end of Gryffindor table, very secluded.

"You don't think that they work for Vol… for you-know-who, do you?" Ron asked casually

"Dumbledore hired them, they can't work for Voldemort, Dumbledore trusts them and we don't even know what they were talking about, it could be training or extra help finding their way around." Hermione was clutching at straws and she knew that but these were The Charmed Ones it was their job to fight evil not fight with evil. "Dumbledore hired them to help train and teach students, Dumbledore trusts them"

"Dumbledore trusted Quirrell the first year too and look where his loyalties lay" Harry snapped, thinking back to his first year and the first confrontation with Voldemort that he could completely remember.

"Harry's right Hermione"

"Yes but not the Charmed ones" she insisted

"How do we know? How do you know Hermione? Do you know something?" Harry turned towards her.

"I…of course… of course not Harry but I just….I mean I can't explain it, I just know" she said before hurrying off down towards Hagrid's hut where the class was going to start in 15 minutes but the trio had decided to go early and see him.

"You think she knows something?" Asked Ron.

"Yes" Harry continued following

"Hey Harry" Harry turned around facing Ron, "Are you okay?"

"Of course" Harry replied curtly before continuing in the direction he had started.

Up next Phoebe's first class, that can only be trouble.

Authors note.

Mae-E: Thanks for reviewing, to your questions, the first one I realize that she's not suppose to be able to freeze Phoebe but I thought it would be funny and changed it so that if she concentrates on just one witch she can freeze them. To the second question I made a note in the disclaimer, that I removed that I meant to redo but didn't do saying that I was just writing this as if Chris didn't come and Leo didn't become an Elder, it's just easier for me and when I started this I didn't know anything about Chris. Or the fact that he was there son. So I hope that answers the question and again thanks for reviewing.

well I hope you guys like, I'm going away tomorrow and wanted to post this week. Please read and review :D

luv ya sweetpup
