Charmed: Kayla and Chris

Chapter 1: The Introduction

"No! Let go of me!" I heard a boy yelling.

Curious, I put down my drawing pad and opened my door. Coming up the stairs was Anna, my foster sister, who was dragging a boy about my age (which was about fourteen) down the hall. He had short brown hair that ended at his shoulders and his clothing was charred. I could tell he had been crying because his brown eyes were red rimmed.

"Come on, Chris," Anna said, clearly annoyed.

Anna was a perky blonde haired, blue eyed, twenty-one year old who took in magical orphans at her parents' mansion. It was a grueling job, but she loved helping us. I think. Today, though, she looked like a wreck.

As she wrestled with this boy, Chris, I noticed a blue light surround him. The blue light dimmed, and he was gone.

Just as fast as he disappeared, he reappeared in Anna's arms.

"Magic-proofed the house, Chris. You won't be getting out of here that easily." She pushed him towards me. "Kayla meet Chris, Chris meet Kayla. She'll show you around the house and then bring you downstairs for dinner. Have fun!"

As soon as she left, Chris tried to run. I grabbed his hand. "Don't do it. There's no place else for you to go."

He squirmed. "Want to bet?"

"Yes, I would. You wouldn't be here unless you were an orphan." He stopped squirming, but wouldn't meet my eyes. "You aren't like the other magical kids, are you?" I asked.

Chris looked up. "How…How did you know?"

"You just tried to orb out before. There are only two kids in the world that I know could do that."

Chris nodded. "Okay, you're right. I'm part witch and part whitelighter. My mom was Piper Halliwell and my dad was Leo Wyatt."

I stared at him. "Which means your brother is…"

"DON'T SAY HIS NAME!" Chris said, cutting me off. He noticed me staring at him kind of funny, since I wasn't expecting him to YELL at me. "Sorry. I want nothing to do with him right now."

I shrugged. "It's understandable. I wouldn't be too happy if my sibling is the greatest evil to ever walk the earth. But you shouldn't want to completely push him away. You should try to stop him."

"Why should I? He's MY older brother. He should be setting a good example for me!"

"True, but this isn't just a normal sibling fight. You're brother is turning the world into a wasteland crawling with demons. By stopping him, you'd be helping the whole entire world."

"I guess." He said, running a hand through his hair. "But there's no way I could go up against him. I'm powerful, but not as powerful as he is."

"Trust me, Chris. I know someone who is way more powerful than he is."

He looked at me as if I was crazy. "That's impossible! Wyatt is 'the chosen one', the most powerful child ever born."

"Well he's not." I took a breath. "You've heard of the heavens right?"

Chris nodded.

"Well, the elders aren't the only people up there. There is also royalty that calls the shots. They are the main decision makers up there, the ones who make the rules that the elders monitor and follow. They are the largest force of good in the entire world." I pointed to myself. "And I am part of that royalty. You are looking at their princess: Princess Kayla."
