Phoebe-18 the picture is of what she looks like in this story
-Phoebe-
"Bye Phoebe!" my friend Bridget calls as I leave the class, "bye bridge, c,ya Monday then!" I wave and then walk up the stairs from the room and Piper appears, we are both in Collage, Piper finishes next year so I always catch a ride with her."Hey Phoebs" she smiles and I give her a wave as we start to walk to her car."How was school?" I ask as I slide in, already feeling myself being tired from overworking my brain in was just starting to become herself, about 4 months ago our beloved grams died of a heart attack, we were all so upset,but Piper took it the hardest since she was the most closest to her, they always were cooking together and going places, Piper told her everything and grams was buried with Pipers most treasured 't get me wrong, my two oldest sisters and I were all terribly upset but Piper was just more...well you know.
But I am finally moving on, its my first year of collage and i'm trying to be the best and help out my sisters and pay the bills, after all I was a burden in their childhood, especially Paige, our mother died when we were very young, I was two so I never really knew her but Paige,Prue and Piper all have good memories, so Paige helped raise Prue Piper and I, although Prue didn't need too much help, she was seven when it happened, our dad Victor left and we haven't heard from him it was always funny, Prue and Paige were like cops, Paige was the calm, sympathetic one and Prue was the one who lost it so good cop bad Cop I guess.
"Yeah, I got a new Professor today" I reply to Piper and we drive to the all so familiar Manor we live in.I huddle my books to my chest and walk up the steps to the doors, Paige would be at work, she is a social services worker and very good at her job too. Prue works at the museum of natural history, she is also very good at her job we are always fighting, always at each others throats,we just clashed and she always bosses me around like i'm still a kid which i'm not, hello, 18! for crying out loud.
"Hey, I really cannot be bothered cooking tonight since Paige probably won't be home for ages so is take away okay?" Piper asks, I smile warmly at her, "yeah, that be cool" Piper nods, "well go have some rest, you look exhausted sweetie" I nod in agree and I put my palm on her cheek before kissing her other cheek and I give her another smile before walking up to my room, I walk upstairs and look out the window and see the sky is no longer bright and sunny but dull and grey and the clouds are heavy, it somehow makes my mood now dull, storms all ways do that, they just give you a bored feeling.I huff before sliding off my shoes and lying on top of the covers of my bed and fall asleep.
-Piper-
I am sitting on the Sofa, my feet tucked up under me as I watch Cheers on the TV, thunder cracks outside making the TV stuff up a front door suddenly shuts, "I'm home!" Prue calls, "in the living room!" I call back.I hear her keys jiggling as she puts them on the counter, "Hey Pipe" Prue says plopping down next to me, she puts her feet out making them drape over my lap."Hey Prue, hungry, take outs on its way" Prue's blue eyes light up, "oh goody! the weathers pretty bad now, I mean it was really hot and now look" Prue frowns "I know, i'm cold" Prue grabs the quilt from behind her and cocoons it around me, she then holds it around my face giving me a cute smile, and she kisses my nose, "thanks Prue" she winks."Where's Phoebe?" Prue asks curiously, I look at the stairs, "ah, upstairs sleeping I think, she has been tired lately from Collage and grams..." Prue nods in understanding "yeah, poor kid, well at least she's not a little Rebel anymore" Prue cracks a grin at her own joke, suddenly the door bell sounds, "food!" I say in a shrill voice, I almost trip over the Quilt that hangs from my foot and swing the door open but i'm surprised upon seeing Paige paying the delivery chick, "hey honey, I just got here" Paige says, I smile lopsided at my oldest sister and take the boxes of Chinese food and Paige carries the Pizza.
"Ugh, that smells amazing!" Prue says with a watery voice and Paige grins.
-Phoebe-
I wake up from someone lightly shaking me, "..c,mon sweetie, foods here" I groan and roll over "mph" I flutter my eyes and see Piper, "okay i'm up dad" I jokingly mock my older sister.I jump slightly when there is a thunder strike,Piper giggles and I sleepily hit her arm and she drapes her arm over my shoulders and she helps me downstairs.
Paige and Prue have already got their plates stacked up and I have to roll my eyes, "hey sleepy head" Prue greets me and I reply with a yawn and slump down on my chair and absent-mindley grab a box of fried rice and dump the rest of its contents onto my plate."I had this case today down in Phoenix and a mother hits her kids for no reason, I could never imagine doing that" Paige says with a hate in her eyes, I look at my oldest sister in amazement, she was such a good person.I always had her as an inspiration, she really loves helping people, especially children."What are you looking at me like that for Squirt?" Paige asks playfully, that's been her nickname for me since I was four.I take a mouthful of food, "I was just thinking of how you are going to be a great mother" Paige smiles, flattered, "well thanks Squirt, you made the practice for it" I roll my eyes.
I'm now in the sun room in my striped pajama pants and short baby blue top that exposes my stomach and my brown hair is pulled up in a pony tail and its dark outside.
"Phoebs, look!" Piper summons me and I walk into the living room, "whats up?" she holds up a wood spirit board and my mouth falls open, "Piper!, that's so cool, how did you find it?" I walk over and sit at the knitting table where it now sits."Well, I found it amongst Grams old stuff" fascinated I grab the eye piece on the board and Piper jokingly places her hands on it the piece moves making us gasp in shock and take our hands away, "Phoebe, don't do that" Piper says a bit grumpy, "I swear, I didn't move it Piper" she scoffs and gets up from the chair, how come she doesn't believe me?.Suddenly the piece moves and lands on T, I shake a little and grab a pen and paper, and jot down AT."Phoebe, what are you doing?" Piper asks, "it moved, somethings giving us a message" I inform her, "Phoebe that's ridiculous, nothing supernatural is in this house alright, you used to move the pointer as a kid remember?" I huff, feeling offended, "well Piper, i'm now eighteen, I did not-" I'm cut off by the pointer sliding against the board and I quickly write down the rest of the letters why Piper calls out Paige and Prue's name.
They come rushing in, "what?" Paige says, worry obvious in her voice, "the pointer on the board moved" Prue snorts, "Pft, did not" she says, "yeah Piper, what you saw was Phoebe moving it" Paige says wrapping her arms around herself, "I did not, see look!" I shout pointing to the pointer that moves to C and I scribble it down and look at the letters.
A-T-T-I-C
"See look, it spells out attic!" just as I say that there is a thunder strike making Piper squeal, "we have a ghost in the house!" she belches, Prue rolls her eyes, "calm down sweetie, nothing is here alright" Paige says resting her hand against Pipers looks at Paige and her features soften and then the power suddenly goes out leaving us all in the dark house letting thunder rumble and reflect against the old walls of the house.I look around, "Look, i'll call someone to open the Attic tomorrow" Prue sighs but I shake my head, "no Prue, i'm going to go into the Attic" Prue shakes her head, "whatever Phoebe, well Paige and I will go into the basement and try get the power on, Piper you go with Phoebe" Piper runs to the phone, "na ah, i'm calling Jeremy and i'll stay with him tonight" she sticks the phone to her ear, "dang, its not working" she slams it on the cradle, "well of coarse its not working the powers out" Paige points out making me smirk.I grab the torch and march upstairs, "the door has never been opened Phoebe" Prue calls after me, I ignore her and follow my ambitious side.
I walk upstairs and shine the blue light of the torch and it allows me to see the old door, I grab the handle but its still locked. Disappointed I frown and just as i'm about to walk away I hear a creak, it sends a shiver down my spine, I turn around half expecting to see a scary ghost holding its head but instead I see the Attic door opening and I walk forward, mustering up all my courage.I let my body through the unfamiliar room and the moonlight is seeping through the stainless steel windows, making it illuminate heaps of dusty crap, including old clothes racks and draws, but what really catches my eye is an old pricks at my curiosity and I shine the torch light on it and I crouch down and grip the hinges and it opens up with a squeak, I cough as the dust builds up in my is a strange powerful feeling to it that draws me closer and I shine inside and the blue light half-heartily allows me to see an old book with more dust settling on it, it seems to be green and it has a sign sowed into it, I recognize the sign as a triquetra, I've learnt about it before.
I pick up the slightly heavy book and cradle it to my chest, I blow its dust away."Book of shadows?" I question as I open it up and see weird things, so I open up another page and see a fancy title which says A SPELL FOR INVOKING THE POWER OF THREE.
A spell? this is a book of witch craft, curiously I start to read aloud.
"Hear now the words
of the witches
the secrets we hid in the night
the oldest of gods are invoked here
the great work of magic
is sought..
in this night and in this hour
we call upon the ancient power..
bring your powers to we sisters four
we want the power
give us the power..."
I feel a weird tingling in my blood and I hear a weird jingling downstairs, sounds like the chandelier.I look around, "Phoebe!" I hear Paige say from the doorway, I look up seeing my three older sisters there, all looking at me in wonder.
"Squirt, what is that?" Paige asks and walks over to me "how did you even get this door open?" Prue asks and looks at the book.
"I don't know, there was an incantation in there, something about witches" I shrug. Prue rips the book from me and sits on top of the chest "power of four? you included me!" Piper screeches, "we sisters four, she included all of us, Piper this is a book of witch craft"
