Being a witch made things so complicated. Still she knew that everything in life happened the way it did for a reason, still she just hoped that they wouldn't have any major problems, after all the last thing she needed was for demons to attack. She hadn't lost hope that her daughter, who had been three years old at this time twelve years ago, that she was still alive. She believed that with all her heart, but each passing day, it left her feeling discouraged. Leo had left her for a while, they were now separated, which discouraged her even more. Leo had been the love of her life and she wasn't about to lose him, or anyone else. She waited thinking about her young daughter who was missing, wondering if anything what would happen next.

Alessa had come to San Francisco in search of answers, mainly of why she had powers, and why she kept having dreams of her being kidnapped and changed into a girl with dark hair, who she was now. A while ago she found a missing persons poster with the girl she saw in her dreams, who she knew had to be her. Of course, how was she going to prove this? Even with her powers it would be difficult. Getting seperated from her grandparents she decided to see if she could get directions back to the hotel.
Alessa saw a vehicle outside of what appeared to be a nightclub, somewhere familiar to her. She entered the nightclub and looked around. A woman appeared to be there and so Alessa decided to ask for directions. The woman looked so familiar to her, but she couldn't figure out why. Alessa had the missing child poster in her hand. The girl in this picture was blonde, while she had dark hair.
She walked over to the woman and tapped lightly on her shoulder. She was only a couple of years underaged, being 19, of course, if she was who she thought she was then she was only 15. "Ummm excuse me, I'm sorry to barge in like this...I kinda got seperated from my grandparents, and I don't know where the hotel is. Can you please help me?" she asked. Alessa always had manners. Her hand accidently brushed against the woman's shoulder and she saw something in her mind's eye. There was a reason she looked so familiar is because that woman was from her dreams.

She looked at the young woman who came in, of course, she was usually considerate up to a point, though she had a rotten day, she'd been separated from her husband for a while, mainly because after what they had gone through, losing a child, was more than enough to cause friction in any marriage, and then all he seemed to want to do was be Up There, so she got fed up and they were now separated but not divorced yet. She sighed, wondering just what the hell the Elders were up to now? She didn't want to lose anyone else.
"Oh that's quite alright....it's two blocks up from here, after you exit the building you have to go left for two blocks, and then at the end of the street there, you go three blocks to the right, it'll have a big sign, so you can't miss it." She said as calmly as she could, though obviously she had been a bit distracted before. She handed one of the bartenders the boxes which she had gotten from the back only moments ago, they were setting up for the band's arrival. Pat Benatar was supposed to come to P3 and perform tonight. Still, Pat Benatar, she had met before, and was thankful that she had, she had become good friends with her, of course, she didn't know what to think, her young daughter, the one who had vanished completely entered her mind, she was never far from her thoughts. She just didn't think she could handle it anymore.

Alessa smiled at the woman sweetly, despite seeing what she had seen. She had no way to prove who she was to the woman because she looked completely different than what the girl should have looked like due to her powers. Alessa looked like she had zoned out for a moment, but quickly collapsed to the ground twitching a bit. Alessa had always had epilepsy, and who she was, the real person, the one who had been kidnapped at an early age, also had epilepsy since she was a baby. So Alessa hadn't truely changed.

She sighed, as she saw the woman fall, one of the bartenders came over to assist her. She didn't know what to think, she remembered her young daughter had epilepsy when she was little, but, she had been missing for twelve years, taken by the very things she used to fear most. It was bad enough that she was completely unfocused, once the bartenders assisted the young woman, trying to get her calmed down, the other called for emergency help. Of course now she was in a panic, and that, as all people who knew the Halliwells knew, that is what triggered her freezing power.

After a few minutes of her seizure, Alessa finally snapped out of it. She tried to stand up, but was rather sleepy, dizzy, and a bit forgetful. "Huh...w-where am I?" she asked, looking around. Alessa tried to stand up again, but lost her balance, falling on the woman a bit. "Oh...I'm sorry..." she said before she saw another vision, Alessa had forgotten the first one and why this woman looked familiar to her. Her eyes quickly snapped shut and she gasped as Alessa saw the woman who she thought was her mother, knock her out and touch her, she changing from a small blonde haired girl to a somewhat older brownish black haired girl, who she looked like in the past.
She then saw the blonde haired girl even further back in the past with the same woman who Alessa had lost her balance on and had fallen towards. Alessa soon snapped out of the premonition as she looked at the woman and freaked out a bit, some bottles of vodka exploding nearby due to her freaking out.

Quickly realizing what the hell was going on she made sure that the bartenders weren't watching as she quickly put both of her hands up and froze the entire club, though anyone who was supernatural either good or evil wouldn't freeze. She wasn't in the mood for this crap, not after everything she had been through. She knew the woman who had fallen partially on her had a premonition at, was obvious, she had made the same kind of face just like her younger sister Phoebe did.
When the bottles exploded she was even more freaked out, luckily she had learned to control her powers, and just like that, had been able to make sure she didn't blow anything up. Last thing she needed was for her powers to go bonkers, which they usually did when she was as confused as she was right now. She wondered what the bloody hell was going on. "Not again, what the hell is going on here?" She thought.

Alessa jumped back and tripped a bit. Poor thing had always been a klutz. "H-How did you do that?" she asked her, still freaking out. Some other alcohol bottles exploded nearby. Alessa placed her hands in front of her just in case this thing was evil. Did she come from someone who was evil? Another thing exploded, which caused Alessa to orb out and back in, in purple orbs, something that had been her trademark when she was born.

She sighed for a moment when she realized that the woman had powers too and wasn't frozen. That was a big clue, though she knew that Leo would freeze, so this was something new for her. She sighed as she looked up at the young woman, though now because the young girl had fallen on her, she had been on the floor but she had been able to stand up before everything froze. "Don't ask. Um, what's your name?"
She didn't know what else to say, after all she wasn't quite sure what to do. She just knew that something had happened. She just didn't know what. After everything that had happened, she knew that Leo at least probably wouldn't care so much that Alessa may still be alive, after all prior to their separation he had told her that he thought Alessa would never return, that whoever took her probably wouldn't ever let her go, and that she should just move on with her life, but how could she when all she could think about was her daughter, who had been taken from her? She had been there for Wyatt and Chris, and everyone else, but still when everyone seemed to have given up, she couldn't. She hadn't ever been able to, being a mom, had given her every ounce of faith she needed to keep going, even when others thought she shouldn't worry about it. How could she not worry about it, was the question?

Alessa looked at her and was somewhat frightened. She didn't know why she kept having these memories. Alessa didn't even live with the woman who she thought had been her mother. Of course, she had a smart ass response for Piper. "Give me your name and I shall give you mine." she said. Alessa had recently been playing Tales of Symphonia and had been saying Lloyd's line whenever someone asked for her name.

"Naturaully, the name's Piper...Piper Halliwell. Now yours!" She said, though honestly, she could tell the woman had the same cocky attitude as one of her old flames, not Leo, but one of the others. She did have one night stand though prior to her getting back together with Leo, then again her relationship with Leo had always been strained, it was never perfect, especially after everything that the Elders and Avatars had done. She usually was calm but when magic happened, she usually wasn't. It wasn't like she asked to be a Charmed One.
Still, she hadn't thought about any of her other relationships, at least not until now. The only one who had crossed her mind, had been Dan, but there had been so many others, all of them, other than Jeremy, had been good relationships, though complicated ones at that.

Alessa looked at her. She was very kind and polite, but hell when you pissed her off. "Alessa...Alessa Summers..." she told Piper somewhat coldly. She saw another vision, one where the blonde haired child was sitting on Piper's lap and giggling a bit. Alessa snapped out of it a few moments later. She brushed some dark hair from her face, and changed into who she had been before she was kidnapped. It only lasted a few seconds before she changed back into her dark haired self. Alessa picked up her bag which contained drawing supplies as well as drawings and ran out the door, accidently leaving behind a drawing that was from her dreams, one with Piper and little Mischa.

She saw Alessa or whoever she was change her image with her powers, and right after the woman left, she picked up the drawing that was left behind, and saw herself with a young girl, who she knew was Mischa, her daughter, and that part really scared her. She knew what she had to do so she kept the room frozen enough until she could leave the building. She had to see if she could find Alessa and fast. Though she really didn't have alot to work with. She waas concerned though.
She sighed, knowing something wasn't right. She got out her cell phone to try and call Darryl, thinking maybe he could find something about Alessa that she couldn't. "Darryl, hi, it's me, Piper, um...we need to talk, can you come by P3?" She asked him still trying to figure out where Alessa had taken off to. She held the picture of herself and the little girl in her hand, the one that Alessa had dropped, and left it behind. She was really starting to get curious.

Alessa had run into an alley somewhere to catch her breath. She looked in her bag and realized that her drawing was missing, but she wasn't going back for it now. That was the drawing that she was going to enter in the competition here, but she could always make a new one.
Alessa stood there and tried to catch her breath, wondering what in god's name had she gotten into. The reason she came to San Francisco wasn't for an art competition, that was a cover, the real reason was because she wanted to find out something about herself, like why she kept seeing those visions of the girl who had the same problems and powers as she did. Of course, she didn't trust the woman who she had just met.
She wasn't sure what that woman was, but she knew that the woman was like her, whether or not she was good or evil was a different story. Stepping out of the alleyway, Alessa looked around. The woman was no where to be found. Alessa had no criminal record, but there was one on the one woman who kidnapped her, she had been put away for child abuse in the physical sense, which is what happened to her real daughter. She walked around and wandered into the park, finding a bench and sitting down to draw the picture once more.

Of course Darryl couldn't come at the moment, so she hung up the phone, but he had promised to check into it for her. Which was a good thing, but at least now she had something to scry with. She told the bartenders that she would be back and to call her on the cell if they needed her, and then she grabbed her stuff and made her way out into the parking lot. Of course things weren't going well for her, right after she got to the parking lot she got surrounded by the little magical trolls, as if she needed that right now.
Being knocked down by trolls no less made her really start to question alot of things. Why hadn't the Elders even given them any help? Did they have something to do with her daughter's disappearance? Questions started entering her head, knowing well enough she needed to get home. But before she could, she had to get away from the trolls.
"You better run while you can, you little rodents." She stands up and looks up at the sky. "I bet you guys think this is real funny don't ya? Haven't you taken enough from me? You have to send trolls to kick me while I'm down."
She picks up her stuff and puts them back in her purse. "I had a nice normal life once and you took that from me. You took my boyfriend, you took my life, the least you could do is leave me..." She waits as a couple walks past but continues speaking. "...my freakin' car keys. I am a good person, I am a good witch and damn it I would've continued to be a great wife. And how dare you take that from me. I deserve... no, you know what? I demand that you send him back to me. You hear me? Right now. I am going to stand in this very spot until you send Leo back to me." She was pretty sure the Elders had something to do with her and Leo being apart, among everything else, like losing their daughter.
