Chris' POV
I looked over on my older brother's bed, there sat my little sister Tori. As I knew Wyatt was at his private lessons for his powers, but I was quite surprised to see the fourteen year old girl studying. So I hung over her, looking at the book, The Study of the Mythological Beings.
"Do you have to look over my shoulder?" She asked.
"You're in our room Victoria." I laughed, reminding her.
"Don't call me Victoria." Tori shouted at me.
"Victoria Prudence Halliwell, Vic-" I was cut off mid sentence by the feeling of something really hard hitting the side of my head.
"Ow!" I yelped, bending to the floor picking up my sister's book that she had thrown at me.
"Chris! Tori!" A voice screamed from outside.
I walked over to the door and opened it to see our cousin David with a concerned look on his face. I looked at the younger boy by three years, questioningly.
"What's up Dave?" Tori asked, getting off the bed and moving towards the door.
"My mom wants all of us in her office. Wyatt, and the girls are already there." David says.
Then we walked down to Aunt Paige's office, David's mother, who was also the Head Mistress of Magic School. When I opened the door I noticed that my brother and the rest of our cousins were there. Mom and Dad, Aunt Phoebe and Uncle Coops, and Uncle Henry were there as well, though Uncle Henry looked upset. He didn't like magic a whole lot, and was antsy about being involved with it.
"What's this about?" Tori asked, sitting down next to David.
"Well, Magic School has been honored to participate in the triwizard tournament." Paige says quickly.
"The what?" My cousin Prue, well Prudence but the few things she and Tori shared was their hate for their full names, except Tori might actually vanquish you if you use hers. Anyway, Prue and I are the same age.
"The Triwizard Tournament. It's designed to have unite magic." Dad says.
"So, what about it?" David's older sister Alyssa asked.
"Yeah." Alyssa's twin sister Rachel added.
"Well we have to be represented, so Paige is going to be sending some of you over to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." Uncle Coop said.
"You mean those idiots that use those stupid sticks." Tori said standing up.
"They're called wands." Paige corrected.
"I'll tell you where they can stick those wands-" David began to say.
"Watch it you!" Paige shouted at her son.
"Wait." Prue's little sister Parker said.
"Yes dear?" Mom asked.
"Does this mean that Tori and the boys are going?" Parker asked, and I couldn't help but squirm.
Whenever something really important came up it usually fell to me, my sister, and my brother, you know with the whole half-whitelighter thing. It got old real fast, let me tell you.
"Well its' not just going to be them, some older students, and probably one of the twins and Prue." Paige says.
"I'm out." Rachel says and Alyssa agrees.
"Why does Prue get to go?" Prue and Parker's little sister Penny asked.
"Because Pen, you're only 12." Parker added.
"I'll go. But Parker should come with us." David said, standing up.
"Yeah, if we can't have all three power of threes, we should at least have two right?" Prue said.
"Look everybody calm down." Dad shouted and all of my cousins sat back down in their seats. My parents and my aunts and uncles made a bit of a huddle and talked over it quietly.
Then they turned around to look at us. Mom took in a breathe. "We've decided to agree with you. So the six of you go pack your bags, and hurry."
I looked at my siblings, like did we not get a say in whether or not we were going. Paige rubbed her forehead. "NOW!"
We ran out her office towards our bedrooms. Prue and Parker disappeared into their room, while David waved to me as he shut the door to the room he shared with a merely white lighter named Garrett. Tori headed towards our room, probably to retrieve her book.
As I was about to shut our door, our father pushed open the door. I smiled at him and he smiled back at me. He and I had the closest relationship it was odd, when I was younger I though Wyatt was his favorite, but he seemed to love all three of us equally.
"Can I come in?" He asked and I nodded.
He stepped into our room, and Tori sat down in the lounge chair, and Wyatt waved letting him know that he was listening whilst he was roaming through his wardrobe.
"Look I know you three are probably upset." He began.
"Damn right." Wyatt muttered.
"Obviously." Tori rolled her eyes.
"A little bit." I responded.
"Okay, no need for the attitude." He said slightly agitated.
"Sorry." Tori said.
"Excuse my language." Wyatt added.
"Thank you." He said and I looked down to the floor.
"Look you know, your cousins, with the exception of a few, can be-" Dad was interrupted.
"Lazy." Tori filled in.
"Annoying." Wyatt added.
"Self-centered." Tori added.
"Cry-babies." Wyatt said.
"Need we go on?" Tori asked.
"Guys." I said, and they both looked up at our father, who was sat next to me on my bed, and then hung their heads down to the floor.
"Sorry." They chorused and Dad laughed.
"Your mother and I love you guys very much. And we don't mean to put all of these things on you, but you're looked up to, and maybe that's our fault, or maybe you guys are just really good at what you do." Dad said and I smiled at my feet.
"What we do? The Elders bidding. That's what we do. We're really good henchman, is that what you're saying?" Wyatt turned and he was staring at our father a way I didn't quite like.
"Wyatt, that's enough." Tori said and he sat back down and I prayed to the Elders for giving me such a confident little sister.
"Look, would you guys honestly appreciate me and your mother not sending you?" Dad asked a reasonable.
"I hear the castle is beautiful. They still are dunderheads but they have a nice castle." Tori said with a smile.
"So, you guys will be leaving the first of September. Me and Aunt Paige will be with you guys so you don't have anything to worry about." Dad said with a smile.
Dad brought us in for a hug. Then he walked Tori back to the room she shared with Penny and Wyatt and I started packing for the trip ahead.
