This takes event 1 year after the end of Buffy's 7th season, and at the very last episodes of Charmed and Angel.
The only different things are that Paige and Henry aren't married, they've only been dating; and Leo is still a Whitelighter

Rome.
Dawn was in her apartment eating when she heard the sound of keys at the door. She turned around in time to see her sister coming through the door.
"Hi Buffy." greeted Dawn to her sister.
"Hey… I'm starving." said Buffy while taking a slice of the cold pizza Dawn was eating from, "Any news on the others?"
"Willow called from the airport, she and Kennedy will be here tomorrow, that's all I know."
"Fine, I'll be here tomorrow all day in case they call before arriving, but tonight I'm out, don't wait up." Said Buffy, chewing her slice of pizza.
"With the Immortal again? With those manners you'll scare him away."
"Please, he's seen worse things, besides I'm all charming when I'm with him."
At sunset, there was a knock on the door and Dawn got up to answer it. There was a mature, good-looking man who Dawn has called the Immortal ever since she met him. That's how everyone knew him, and sometimes she wondered what Buffy called him.
"Hi, she'll be here any minute now, come on in." said Dawn. The quiet man entered and took a seat but as soon as Dawn closed the door Buffy came down the stairs.
"Ready!" she said walking to the man and giving the man a quick kiss on the lips. Soon they were outside.
They were hanging out as usual. He'd been really nice to her, and she felt comfortable with him even though Dawn didn't completely like him. According to Dawn, ever since Buffy and this Immortal met, she'd changed, and not exactly for good. But Buffy was happy with him so she didn't put too much stock in what Dawn said, although her sister's opinion mattered to her. Buffy thought she might have a thing for immortal beings.
They went to a night club that was nothing like the Bronze. This one was fancy, sort of a VIPs Only place, and because the Immortal was so important he was not only allowed to be here but asked to be. He and Buffy were at a table in the corner, and from a distance a young couple could be seen watching them. The young man, of around 24 years old, asked the girl next to him, "Is that her? And you can't say no because it's kinda obvious."
"Yes she is … and what do you mean by obvious?" asked the 19 year old girl.
"Well I mean, look at her, she's… I mean… the way she looks…" stuttered the man while staring at Buffy wide eyed. The girl slapped his shoulder softly.
"Hey! I'm right here. Don't make me jealous! Besides, how can you see her that way, I mean… please!"
The couple watched Buffy and the Immortal a little longer but they were soon becoming bored. After waiting some more a suited man approached the Immortal and whispered something in his ear. The Immortal looked annoyed and then turned to Buffy.
"I hate when this happens, I have to take care of a business, it's important and it can't wait, you understand right?" He asked Buffy gently. She responded in the same gentle way.
"Yeah I understand, don't worry."
"I can take you home."
"No it's fine, it's been a long while since the last time I had a quiet walk, just me and myself, you go get your business done, I'll see you tomorrow."
They kissed one another before departing in opposite directions. As soon as Buffy walked out of the club the couple that was watching her, followed.
After a couple of blocks, Buffy could sense that someone was behind her but when she turned and saw nothing, she kept walking. Her senses were now on high alert as she walked a little faster. She turned into an alley making the couple lose her for a second. Once they reached the alley Buffy grabbed the man by the neck and pushed him against the wall, and with an angry look she stared him right in the eyes.
"Ok, spill, who the hell are you and what do you want?" She demanded.
The man was gasping for air and the girl grabbed Buffy by the shoulders and pulled her away from her partner. Buffy could feel the strength this girl exhibited and she stared at the mysterious girl, unable to hide her surpise.
The girl stared at her with her hands up showing no intention of attacking.
"Who are you two, and you… you remind me of… me." said Buffy confused.
"I can explain it… mom."
"Hey, I told you to be subtle!" snapped the guy in frustration.
Buffy looked in shock at the girl, speechless, the only sound that came out of her mouth was a light "huh?"

San Francisco.
The Halliwells were at the Manor. Paige and Phoebe were in the dinning room while Piper walked to the table carrying the Book of Shadows.
"Don't tell me we have to fight a demon" Paige said to her oldest sister.
"No, but I think we should write all what happened the last 8 years; to have a transcription for future generations as there was a transcript for us."
The three smiled and Phoebe started writing her experiences. After she finished, Paige took the book and finally Piper took her turn. They all wrote how their lives had changed since they discovered their powers.
Once they were done Piper closed the book and sighed.
"Well, now it's time to relax finally after all these years."
"Yay for that." replied Paige.
"But you know… I think I'm going to miss the surprises…" before she had finished talking she was interrupted by two people orbing in and the sisters stared at the new arrivals.
"…Or maybe not." continued Phoebe.
The sisters stood up with happy faces mixed with worried looks. Piper was the one who spoke first.
"Chris! What are you doing here?"
"Hi mom… aunts…"
--------------------------------
Rome.
Buffy was still speechless, not sure what to do or say, the three of them stood there in silence, until the silence was finally broken.
"Hold on! I mean… how… Is this a joke? I think I would remember having kids, and, look at you! You're almost an adult and…"
"Calm down, we'll explain."
"This should be interesting." mumbled Buffy before noticing that the guy was looking her from head to toe several times. "And what exactly are you looking at?"
"Ah… sorry Mrs. Summers, err… Miss Summers, is just that you two are so alike!"
"We come from the future, something changed in the past… this present, and we came back here to fix it. We have to undo whatever the First and the Source did to you, and dad.
"Shh… remember not to reveal too much of the future, you may change it even more." whispered the guy to the girl.
"You lost me right after the mom part…" Buffy said thoughtful looking to her so called daughter straight in the eyes looking for any sign whether to trust her or not.
"Ok, I'll just say that things aren't the way they should be, something has changed for some reason and in the future. In my present I'm fading away…disappearing."
"Things aren't what they're supposed to be? So what, do I have to change all my lifestyle just so that my unborn child can go back to who knows what kind of future? Oh, yeah sure, anything else you need to change?"
"And you complain about my sarcasm." mumbled the girl
"It's just that, from my point of view, things haven't been this good for years, and as far as I know you could be an evil mini-me, evil little Buffy junior."
"No worries, I'm not evil; also I'm not called Buffy, most people call me Anne."
"Mm'kay… so, let's say I believe you, which I'm not saying I do but what was that thing you said about The First and the … the sauce?
"The Source." said the guy who had been quiet most of the time.
-------------------------------
Los Angeles.
Angel wanted to know if Wesley, Lorne, Gunn, and Spike were in for wiping out the Circle of the Black Thorn. They all agreed.
Gunn wondered if they would just kill them all at once but Angel told them that the Circle was the most powerful group on Earth as a unit, but separated they were simply demons. They will have to make their move soon but they need to make it seem as if they are against each other.
----------------------
San Francisco.
The sisters knew that grown up Chris doesn't make social visits to the past and so they are able to assume that something is wrong.
"Don't tell me we screwed your future again." said Phoebe, exasperated. She received a puzzled glance from Chris.
"You were here yesterday with Wyatt, and told us that your future got screwed."
"Ah yeah I remember now, that was my one-year-ago-self, but anyhow I came to see you while Wyatt takes care of something."
"And who's this lovely young woman?" asked Paige pointing to the brunette, with wavy long hair standing close to him.
"Hi I'm Nikky, it's a pleasure to meet you… again, sorry this is confusing…"
"Nikky, are you a future daughter-in-law of mine?" asked Piper as if judging.
"Eh,… no, I mean, we're in the getting to know each other part, I'm a friend of Wyatt's girlfriend."
Piper was about to ask more questions when she saw another orb revealing Wyatt and a black haired girl shorter than Nikky.
"Chris, we have problems… oh, hi all." said Wyatt.
"I assume this is your girlfriend… Hello, I'm Phoebe Halliwell." Phoebe added with a smile.
"Anne Summers." The girl replied.
They all headed to the living room to talk but not before calling Leo. Wyatt explained why they were there.
"Well, in the future two different evil powers are working together. The powers have been defeated before, once by you, and the other by Anne and Nikky's parents. One of the powers is the Source… in a new body, and the other calls itself The First Evil. So far we've fought against all the enemies they've sent and we were about to defeat them for good, but unfortunately they found a way to come to the past. Anne first lost her powers, and at times she seemed to be fading away. We cast a spell to see why this was happening and we found out that the evil duet is changing history, we went to see Anne's mother and for what we know so far, the way things are being changed is by keeping Anne's parents apart from each other… way apart, in different continents, and if evil succeeds Anne will disappear. We think that the next would be Nikky and, if so, nobody will lead the Slayers and our chances to stand against evil will be minimal if we have any chance at all."
"And who exactly are you two, and who are your parents." asked Piper to the girls.
"We're Slayers, by heritage and by birth right, you can say we're double blessed and cursed."
Anne was interrupted by Paige "What do you mean by heritage and birth right… and what about the blessing and curse part?"
"Well," the girl continued "the heritage part is because both of our mothers are Slayers. It was supposed to be only one each generation. My mom got the call, then she died for a couple of minutes but that was enough for the next Slayer to be activated. That Sayer died after a year and the next one came to scene, Nikky's mother. Twenty one years ago, I mean, one year ago from now, my mom and her friends, along with a bunch of potential slayers, fought against the First Evil. With the help of a Scythe, a mythic Slayer's weapon, a powerful wiccan witch transformed every potential Slayer in the world into real Slayers and that was the end of only one Slayer into every generation. That leads to the part of us being Slayers by birth right, because Willow, the wiccan, casts a spell every now and then to find new potentials and in one of those spells she found out that we both were potentials. We were chosen to be Slayers, not because of our mothers, but because destiny, so both of our genes and destinies have the Slayer mark."
"And the bless and curse thing," resumed Nikky, "is because it's great to have Slayer powers and help the world, but on the other hand is hard to give up your normal life and change it to a life full of supernatural thingies."
"I heard about that." said Leo. "During the last year several girls around the world discovered they had super strength."
"So other than super strength which other powers do you have." asked Phoebe.
"Nothing magical like you, our powers focus more on strength, speed, reflexes, accelerated healing and in some cases, prophetic dreams." Said Anne.
"So I guess that in order to defeat the Source and the First, we have to help your parents first." resumed Wyatt.
"You're right hun."
"Well, family, we have to go" said Wyatt while standing up along with Chris, Anne and Nikky.
"Whoa whoa whoa, where you think you're goin'? You can't expect that we'll remain sit here after what you've told us." said Phoebe standing next to her nephews.
"She's right." said Piper. "Our fights are done so we have space to help the next generation with their own fights."
"You don't have to, are you sure?" responded Chris.
"Absolutely, we're family aren't we?" reasoned Paige.
Leo nodded in agreement before staring up as if hearing something. He then said he'd be back soon before orbing away.
