Aubrey Skye Hale was a normal 18 year old girl, who had everything a kid could want. She had two parents that loved her and that were still together. She was an only child that had all the love in the world. Aubrey wasn't bad looking either. She was blonde, naturally, hazel eyes that turned green mostly, and a nice figure. She had been in dance class since she could walk.
Aubrey's life was prefect, well for now it was anyhow. But what Aubrey didn't know was that her parents had been keeping a secret from her. Truth was, she was a witch just like her parents. Both witches in hiding to keep her safe, the only ones knowing of her were the Elders. Aubrey's world was about to be turned upside down for the worst.
Coming home from dance class, Aubrey took her time as always, she saw no point in rushing at all. There was nothing special going on today anyhow. Just another normal day. As she walked, she heard a noise from inside her home, this caused her to run inside. What she saw was something she had never before layed eyes on.
It was a demon. The looks were of a man, but it sent energy balls out of its hands hurling toward her parents. "Mom! Dad!" Aubrey screamed and ran toward them.
"No! Stay back, run away!" Her father yelled as he threw a ball of god knows what at the demon trying to kill him. The demon turned around and saw Aubrey after he dodged the energy ball. He smirked and with a wave of his hand threw her into the wall.
"So you're the precious power everyone in the underworld is raving about?" The demon smirked and moved closer. He felt something hit him in the back. Her mother had sent a chair flying at him. It had no effect what so ever though. "You hardly look worth all the trouble." He turned his head to the side, with out looking he moved his hand and a ball of energy went flying into her mother. Killing her.
Aubrey looked at what was left of her mother. "Mom!" She screamed and her dad jumped at the demon trying to get the jump on him. But the demon just killed him then and there without any remorse. "Dad…." Aubrey could only whisper that out. Still in shock at what she just saw this demon do.
"Well…Well…look what we have here." The demon smirked at Aubrey. Aubrey was frozen in his gaze, her body trembled at the sight of him. "You don't look so powerful." He said getting closer to her.
"Help!" Aubrey called for someone, anyone. She just hoped for someone to hear her and come to her rescue.
"No one is going to help you little witch." He smirked and grabbed her by the throat.
"Help!" She groaned out, she felt her vision blur. Just then she saw the most beautiful white and blue lights floating around. That's when she thought she was probably dead. But then she saw a man standing as the lights disappeared. Then everything when black.
Aubrey awoke several hours later. As she opened her eyes, she saw a room that was very unfamiliar place. Sitting up in bed, she looked around the room. It was a good sized room, very pretty, but something was off. Her memory started to come back on what had happened to her parents. A tear made its way down her cheek, slowly she wiped it away with her hand.
Getting out of bed, Aubrey noticed she had on different clothes. It was a big black t-shirt and some boy shorts. She pushed her hand through her hair trying to remember what happened after the demon had her. Did it bring her here? What was with the guy in the blue and white lights? So many questions flooded her head, yet she couldn't find any answers.
Pushing her blonde hair back out of her face, Aubrey walked to the door and opened it. Sticking her head in, she bit her lip. "Hello?" Aubrey said softly into the hallway, looking both ways, she saw no one there. Getting back in the room, and shutting the door behind her, she turned around. "Shit!" She screamed as a tall dark haired man stood in front of her. Her hands went up in front of her and a vase exploded.
"Whoa!" The man said looking at her. He grabbed her hands and held them down a bit. "Keep your hands down, I don't want to blow up." He said softly and smiled a bit at her. Aubrey looked at him, scared out of her mind.
"Who are you?" Aubrey asked trying to pull her hands free from him. Her green eyes stared up at him.
"I'm Chris Halliwell. Your Whitelighter." He said with a simple smiled. He was cute, tall, and had some muscles going on.
"White…what?" Aubrey asked with a confused look on her face. Chris gently laughed and let go of her hands.
"Come on downstairs, my mom has made breakfast and I will explain after we eat." Chris said to her and smiled. Aubrey looked at him, not sure weather to trust him or not. Chris just smiled. "Well come on, don't want your food to get cold, do ya?" He said and Aubrey bit her lip. Her stomach grumbled. She wondered how long she had been asleep. "You haven't ate in 3 days." He said, which made her look at him. "I can feel your emotions and your's says your hungry." Chris said and rubbed the back of his head.
Aubrey rubbed her stomach and stood up. "Okay, food sounds good." She said finally giving into her huger. "But please, stay out of my feelings." She said softly and opened the bedroom door.
She waited for him to go first out side the room for two reasons. One: She didn't trust him just yet, and two: Well she didn't have a clue on where she was going. Chris took the hint and got up. He lead her outside the room and down a long hallway. As they walk, Aubrey took in the sights, the house seemed very put together and very beautiful. Getting closer to the stairs, Aubrey could smell the food, damn did it smell good.
"My mom is s chief." Chris said softly. He laughed and shook his head at her face. "No I didn't read your mind, I smell food too and just guessed." This caused Aubrey to roll her eyes.
"So this is your home?" Aubrey asked softly as she walked behind Chris looking at the pictures on the walls.
"Yeah." He said as they walked.
"Its very nice." Aubrey said softly. She felt like she was dying inside, trying to distract herself from what was really going through her mind. Chris then turned around.
"Listen, I know your feeling like your world is crashing, but you have to think like we do. When one door is slammed in our faces, another one opens up to knock us down." He said with a cute little smirk. Aubrey looked at him. Her face not showing any emotions. "Its okay to break down sometimes too." He said offering her a shoulder to cry on.
"I don't break down." She whispered softly. "I stay strong and I fight." Looking at him, she took a deep breath. "I want to kill that thing." She said referring to the demon that killed her parents.
"I understand, and when I teach you to control your powers, you can do that." Chris said which caused Aubrey to look at him confused again. He sighed and rubbed his head. "You're a witch." He told her, Aubrey looked at him and laughed a bit.
"What? Witches aren't real." Aubrey said softly. She was denying the fact.
"Yeah they are, and your one of them." Chris said softly and waiting for her to freak out or faint.
"Oh…" Aubrey said and looked at him and then down at the floor. "I'm not…" She paused for a moment and took a deep breath. "I'm not gonna get warts or turn green am I?" Aubrey asked with a straight face.
Chris stared at her for a moment. He looked at her and then down at the ground before laughing. "Wow you took that better than I expected." He said and put a hand on her shoulder. "You'll get along with us fine. Now come on, I'm hungry." He said and took her hand, leading her downstairs.
