Chapter One
Cole sensed the spirit right away as the temperature dropped suddenly and he could once again see his own breath. He started to shiver.
Relax damn it. I've been helping the dead for 7 years now. All it wants is help. So why am I still so scared?
"For the last time I'm not dead!" said Bella as loud as she could without waking Cole's Mom.
After a few moments of silence Cole spoke. "Then why are you here? Only dead people ask for my help."
"For the love of…I don't need your help. I'm here to watch over you, make sure you don't fall in with the wrong crowd, use your gift for evil, blah blah blah…"
Oh suddenly after 7 years of helping ghosts they send someone to watch over me.
"How the hell would I use my powers for evil?"
"I don't know! Ask the elders."
"The who?"
"The elders. They are all knowing." She laughs, "Yeah… all knowing my ass, but I can ask them for you anyway."
"Um… no that's okay."
Maybe she's dead and doesn't know it.
"For the last time I'm not dead!"
"Then what are… whoa, wait, did you just read my thoughts?"
"No! …okay yeah, yeah I did."
Way weird how did she do that? She's obviously not dead. But…what is she?
"I am the daughter of a Halliwell. Paige Halliwell to be exact. She is a famous witch in the magical community. She and her two older sisters form the charmed ones. Of course you probably don't know this seeing as you just see dead people."
Just see dead people?!?
"I get all my powers from that line of witches" Bella continues ignoring his thought. "Paige is also a white lighter as well as being a witch so I am too. Half mortal, one fourth witch, one fourth white lighter."
"Okay…what is a white lighter?"
"Oh sorry duh. A white lighter is a magical paragon of good who is to protect and watch over witches and future white lighters."
"Alright I think I understand but where do I fit into all of this?"
"You are my charge. I am here to watch over you."
"So if you not dead then why did the temperature suddenly drop?"
"Your heater is broken dumb ass"
