Life in the Fast Lane
Chapter 1: Getting to know us. (all of us)
First there's my mom, Phoebe Halliwell. She is apart of a trio called the Charmed Ones. They kicked ass back in the day, and occasionally still do. Mom was the one who found the Book of Shadows in the attic and read the incantation to activate their powers. Mom was always a carefree spirit I am told. She never really cared about responsibility, until she got settled down she got a steady job and moved into the role of middle sister. She used to be the youngest, until the Oldest sister, Prue died. After growing up and having her heart broking many times, Mom finally found true love with Coop.
Coop is dad and he's a cupid. The Elder's sent him to Phoebe to make up for all the times she was pulled away from love because of her witchly duties. It was a fairy tale love and still is.
From Phoebe and Coop there is my sisters. The oldest of the two is Phoebe, named after my mother. Unlike mom, she is a shy one. Every now and then she gets a little bossy but for the most part Phoebe is a quiet one. To distinguish her from mom, she is nicknamed Pheebs and Dani. (Dani being short for her middle name Daniella.) The younger of the two is Rachel. Like mom, she is an outgoing free spirit. She loves magic and is learning to control her tricks.
Now the aunts, uncles and cousins
My eldest aunt and one I've never met is Prue. I've heard so much about her but sadly she died only 3 years after becoming a witch. It was hard on my mom and Piper, but time goes on. She is never forgot and her grave is visited often. It is a thinking place for people in our family.
The next eldest is Piper. Another member of the charmed ones, Piper has the power to freeze and blow things up. She is an amazing chef and businesswomen. She owns a club called P3. The club is always backed and has the latest bands playing there. Piper also owns a restaurant called Charmed. She is married to Leo. Leo used to be a whitelighter. There love was forbidden but like they say, Love Conquers All. Eventually they got married and had three kids. Wyatt, Chris and Melinda.
Wyatt Matthew Halliwell. Wyatt is the eldest and the most powerful. Wyatt is half whitelighter and half witch. The twice blessed prophesized child grew up to be the most powerful witch of all time. Although he has unlimited power, to me, he's my older cousin. We've been through thick and thin and I love him to death. He's been there for me throughout the dates, break up and work outs. He taught me martial arts and many life lessons. He's protective as hell but it's all in good intention. I wouldn't change him for the world.
Chris Perry Halliwell. The second oldest, and Wyatt baby brother. He is also half whitelighter and half witch. He is also one of my older cousins. We've been through a lot together too. Chris is protective but he's not as bad as Wyatt. He listens to me and gives me advice. He lets me make my mistakes and is always there to pick me up when I fall. Chris loves to cook and works as a chef at Piper's restaurant.
Melinda Wyatt Halliwell. The youngest of child from Piper and Leo. Melinda is my younger cousin. She has the same defiant and stubborn attitude as Piper but I love her. She comes to me for advice on anything. Melinda is half witch-half mortal. Leo had given up his power and became mortal before Melinda was ever conceived. Her powers are freezing and blowing things up, and astral projection. Melinda has astral projected few times and does not have it under control.
Next there is aunt Paige. After Prue died, Piper used a spell to call a lost witch and got Paige. Paige has the same mother as Piper, Prue and Phoebe, but she has a different father. Paige is the first witch-whitelighter to exist. Their Mom, Patty, has an affair with her whitelighter Sam, and they had to give her up in order to protect her. Eventually she was found and she reconstituted the Charmed Ones. Paige was also a free spirit but that eventually changed. She used to work as a social worker but gave it up to become better at her craft. After 4 years of being a Charmed One, Paige finally embraced her whitelighter destiny and has saved many innocents. She also has a job as a social worker again as a cover. She is a high profiled social worker and gets good pay but continues to work helping the people who need it the most.
Paige ended up married a mortal Henry. Henry is a parole officer but he has a lot authority as an officer, more then a parole officer should. Henry helps save innocents like Paige, but only in a different way. He helps troubled teens who are close to being incarcerated turn their life around and make good of their life. He has helped many teens and adults and loves his job. Henry has 3 kids with Paige.
The oldest is Henry Halliwell Matthews-Mitchell. (Henry Junior or Junior for short.) Henry is super protective of his younger sisters and is somewhat of a bad boy. Girls are in love with him, but he never is really interested. He only dates girls he really likes. Being the oldest of the a charmed one, Henry is more powerful then his sisters. However being 1/2 mortal, Henry is no where as powerful as Chris and Wyatt.
The Mitchell twins. The oldest of the two is named Peyton. Peyton is strong willed and more in dependent then her younger sister, Prudence. Prudence (Prue for short) is quieter and more go with the flow then Peyton. They bicker about clothes and stuff all the time and they drive Henry.
And then there's me. What is my name? My name is Maddie, Lexi and sometimes Lena. My name changes depending on who is talking to me. My birth name however is Madison Philena Halliwell. With a family so big I have tons of nicknames. I am the eldest daughter from Phoebe and Coop. I am the first witch-cupid to be born. Like Wyatt, being the first of a new crossbread, I am also a prophesized child. I am also one of the most powerful witches to ever walk the face of the earth. I believe Wyatt and I are equally power, he however disagrees. I have accepted my multiple destinies and have tried to be well-rounded. As a cupid, I have to coach people through love. It can get annoying when people are so difficult, but I've never not gotten someone into a good relationship. As a witch, I am very talented. I have mastered each and ever one of my many powers. I'm good at potions and spells. I get good grades at Magic school and high school. My normal life is great. I have amazing best friends and an amazing family. I have a couple of problems though, after all no one's perfect. I party--a lot, maybe even too much. I drink often and smoke cigarettes when I'm really on edge. I drink 5 cups of coffee a day and shop all the time.
This is my life, along with my family. The next generation taking over, fighting for good, surviving demon attacks, saving innocents, life and regular team stuff.
