Wonder was over visiting Andrew's apartment for the first time. She, Faith, and the twins are now 17, about to turn 18 in just a month, "Wait your family still owns this apartment even if you guys live in a house?" Andrew nodded.

Haven jumped onto the couch, "The apartment where our parents got together they couldn't let it go."

Wonder giggled, "That's kinda romantic. I can't believe we graduated already. School ended so early."

"I kind of miss it, it was fun learning something new everyday." Alec said.

Andrew chuckled, "your such a nerd Alec."

"Our mothers were a mess." She laughed, "Oh well Faith and I can focus on studying magic on our own now."

Faith agreed with Wonder and laid back on the couch in the living room, "damn this couch is comfy."

"So what college you going to Andrew?" Haven asked.

Andrew shrugged, "NYU most likely"

"You haven't even gotten a college yet?!" Wonder crossed her arms. Faith and Wonder have become close to the people they've met over the past few years. Usually every summer they spend with their little cousins, Maple and River, and then they go to their grandparent's place. Lastly they go to the camp and Brooklyn house before coming home. This allowed them to become close to each other over the years. Then they met Andrew but that's a whole different story.

"I have NYU is the most likely college. I don't want to leave the state though I was accepted other places like tufts university." Andrew defended.

"Well maybe I could make a spell to help you pick."

"yeah sure great idea."

"Be a little more enthusiastic." Wonder pouted.

"oh well then YES DO THE SPELL WONDER THE WONDERFUL! PLEASE YOUR GREATNESS CAST A SPELL ON ME!" Andrew's sarcasm was apparent.

Wonder rolled her eyes, "Alright, alright I get it." She opened her level zero spell book, "We seriously shouldn't have never let you meet Esperanza." She looked through the spell book, "Ah here's one."

Haven took a step back, "Wonder remember to pronounce."

"I know Haven." She scoffed. "Faith wanna help?"

"yeah sure" Faith got up and went to Wonder's side.

Wonder and Faith started chanting the spell when Wonder stumbled on her words, "When we are here you can be st- no wait power ugh I mean-!"

Faith looked at Wonder with both scolding and slight panic, "Wonder!" A flash of light hit Andrew, "oh no..."

"Andrew? " She walked up to him and touched him. That was her second mistake. Wonder glowed for a second and then turned into a fairy, and she WAS NOT pleased.

Andrew held his head, "whoa I'm dizzy."

Wonder flicked Andrew's head which in her fairy form felt like a regular person flicking him. She got thrown back as soon as she flicked him, "Ah! Oof!" She got knocked into Faith.

"Watch it wonder it's not his fault that you turned into a fairy." Faith reminded.

Andrew rubbed his head, "what did I do?"

Wonder spoke to Faith knowing Andrew couldn't understand her, "I didn't turn myself into one!"

"He's human he can't turn you into one." Faith tried.

Wonder pouted, "I got pushed back by some type of magic."

"Weird how did Andrew do that?" She kneeled to look at Andrew was scooting away a bit then a man appeared in the middle of the room. He wore a fedora on his greying blonde hair. On the hat were pictures of different animals and creatures. His shirt was a blue button up with a pocket. On the pocket was a design of fairy wings. He wore what look like black pants a business man would wear, which didn't match his red converse at all. His eyes seemed older and more observant than the man looked to be and, although he had a cane, he radiated power. Which was funny since he wore hipster glasses and had a matching beard.

The man spoke, "Faith touch Andrew."

Faith didn't listen to the random man, which was smart, "Who the heck are you?"

The man sighed, "Just touch him." Faith looked at everyone and resigned to touching her friend. In an instant she was put in pixie form.

The man smiled, "Finally he's the second human wizard."

Wonder raised her eyebrow, "Eh?"

"excuse me ahem WHAT?!" Andrew was asking the right questions.

He rolled his eyes, "Yes yes big shock. It's only when your around these two. " The man pointed to the two little people in the room, "Oh yeah I'm your granddad. Both of yours." He smiled and wrinkles appeared by his endless eyes.

Faith jingled pixie for, "um what?"

The man repeated himself, "I'm your granddad to you and Wonder. 1p and 2p. I'm Merlin. I'm your parents' father. Also the one who made them protectors. Oh and Andrew is a wizard now. I'm the oldest magical being alive."

"Oh awesome. Great. That's not just you know, just dropping that on us." The sarcasm was apparent in her voice.

"I need to sit down." Andrew said shakily.

Merlin sat on the couch, "Well it was bound to happen sooner or later boy. Normally I can't see human future but yours is fuzzy to me." He smiled like the crazy old cook he seemed to be, "I do see a castle in all your futures."

Andrew looked at Merlin in disbelief, "In mine?you sure?"

"Andrew don't act like a bum. I know a lot. Like Wonder and Faith have the mark of their flag in some interesting places." Merlin smirked.

Wonder blushed and nearly stopped flying out of embarrassment, "a bum?" Andrew asked.

Faith blushed and started cursing every swear she knows at the old man. Merlin made a deadpan face, "A butt. And young lady I can hear you."

"Good! You don't just say that, especially in front of our boyfriends!"

"Yeah yeah." He stood up, "Well Andrew see you in..." He pondered for a minute, "Well I'll see you." He walked out of the apartment.

Andrew just spoke the question on everyone's minds, "um what?"

"creepy." Faith stated.

"Agreed." Wonder tried to turn herself into herself again." Ugh Faith I can't turn human
." Faith tried herself with little success. Andrew looked at his friends then focused on the command to turn them back. It worked.

"Oh great now we need that one's permission to change ugh this is going to be a long summer."
